About LinkBacksAnyone have any good battery saving techniques? And does 'Batter Saver Mode' make the phone perform noticably slower than say, Smart Mode?
Also, I downloaded the Advanced Task Killer because my verizon rep told me to. After doing a little reasearch though, I heard that having this actually kills the battery faster because it is constantly running. Is it better or worse to have this?
And again, please share any tips to help save battery life longer?

07-19-2010 08:18 PMbiggest tips i can give you, are no task killers, lower your screen brightness thats the biggest battery user, i went from full brightness to about 1/4 and added a good three hours of battery, vibrate also uses more battery than silent and ringtone/notifications

07-19-2010 08:21 PMAs said.... don't use a task killer.
It runs in the background... which uses battery, and it kills tasks that the OS will re-open anyway, which will there again use more battery.
Let the OS do it's job and avoid the task killers
