Dear Droid Forums,
I'll get just get straight to the point: We all want to know how to conserve battery on this beautiful device. I believe we should have a sticky on the matter (unless there is one already that I don't know of) that should have a complete comprehensive list occasionally updated with new information on the initial post; this will be nice for people to get quick answers without having to post or search for ages about if a certain app is a battery killer or not.
I think we could start here for now and talk about the easiest ways to save your battery. Are there any things I could do to conserve besides the typical(screen brightness, wi-fi off, etc) ? I have researched tirelessly and have done a few things but they are only pretty basic... I'm looking more towards widget and applicaiton uses and how they affect battery change; which ones should we use and should not. Also I would like more technical and detailed input rather than a vague one-sentenced reply, if its entirely possible.
Also if someone will also like to throw in some input on task killers that would be much appreciated, but i am less concerned with that... Only because I've read and been told not to use them because of how the android os task managing works internally(which frowns upon force killing apps)... I still would like to hear some things still from this end.
If the mods decide to sticky this, I will update everything that I notice that works the best and place everything in the initial post right below all of this. Thanks in advance for your contributions
