Try this app “Battry Plus”.(FREE)

I have installed this app from playStore. It is incredible. Works great on my Android. It really reduces the battery consumption and also i can kill the unwanted apps running through this app.

Hi Dave…. This is a great tip and works very well. That said not all devices have this feature. For example I know HTC devices do, but the Google Nexus devices dont (ie Galaxy Nexus running ICS).

Anyone wanting to do this on HTC here is a quick howto guide http://blog.brightpointuk.co.uk/setting-exchange-email-htc-desire-hd

When setting up you’re corporate mail you should have the option to turn off your push mail during off peak periods. This saves me heaps of battery life and helps me switch off from work!

Using a default email client with say 15 minute update also helps. Push email is a problem not just on android but on Iphone as well ( its one of the few things the blackberry does better than anyone in terms of battery power)

Really Kerry? The iPhone 4S suffered battery life problems with the software for many months. The model before didn’t work cause you held it ‘wrong’. Keep dreaming……

Was waiting for someone (in this case you) to mention these tips, I didn’t put them in the blog as for some people they are as you said – quite obvious. I hope some of these tips may have been ones you hadn’t previously thought of?
