Smart Action/Battery Tips

[ddfuji]

Thanks ddfuji.....
I appreciate all of your help. Before your help i could only get about four hours out of my battery. It is up to like six now. I know it will get better with some use of my smart actions. i have not even tried it yet. I have only been using the stock task manager, I don't know alot about the smart actions. I am going to do some research. Thanks again for your help.

Your welcome. You will get more as you manage your usage more wisely. I get 11 with music streaming almost the whole time.

The smart actions is pretty user friendly. I found it easy to use.

Best of luck

Awesome, so how did you create the smart action to disable your data when connected to WiFi? I am new to Droid phones.

So open smart actions, hit the green + button to add a new action. Then choose start from scratch. In the trigger category hit the + and add "wifi connection", its towards the buttom, for me it showed a list of all networks that I have connected to. Select the networks you want this action to apply to. If you want it to apply to all wifi connections select all the networks listed. After adding that you will want to go into the actions by hitting the +. Scroll down to button you want to select cellular data. it will pop open a menu with on or off option. Select off. What this makes is. When connected to whatever networks you selected it will turn of cellular data. If you add new networks later on you might have to make these changes in smart actions.

And remember you can't send or receive mms (i.e. picture messaging) when connected to wifi.
