Extending the Battery Life
Active applications, screen brightness levels, Wi-Fi usage and GPS
functionality and other certain features can all drain your battery. You can
follow the helpful tips below to conserve your battery power:
• Reduce the screen backlight time.
• Lower the screen brightness.
• Turn auto-sync, portable hotspot, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth off when not in
use.
• Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications using
this function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current
location; each query drains your battery.
Restarting the Phone
If the screen freezes or takes too long to respond, try pressing and
holding the Power Key for about 8 seconds to restart the phone.
Setting Up for the First Time
When you rst power on your phone after you purchase it or reset it to
factory settings (see Backup and Reset), you need to set some settings
before using it.
