So you buy this phone you think your really gonna like. You understand that it's prepay, the coverage isn't that great, and the customer service is par. But when you start to use the phone you really like it, the data speeds are great, phone conversations are crisp. But some thing is missing and that some thing missing is your battery life. This phone has terrible battery life. I am not going to get into why its so bad but to ease your minds and make you want to buy this phone like I did because of the cheap phone plans, no contract, and ability to have an android phone for $129 bucks it's really a steal. You can even activate this phones WIFI hotspot feature for FREE! Check out my blog posting that covers that feature. Anyways if you want to just skip to the video I will post it below. Here's how you enhance the battery performance. I have tried settings short cuts "they are ok but still drain battery life", and I have tried app killers "They didn't work for me, maybe they work for you?" But I found a nifty free little widget that I run on my home screen that gives me access to my WIFI, Blue tooth, GPS setting, Auto refresh, and Brightness. This is the widget you want to run.
1) Press and hold down on the screen with your finger until the short cut window pops up.
2) Click on widgets
3) Scroll down till you find power control
4) Here you can adjust the screen brightness and toggle off "GPS" (The GPS feature is what's draining your battery, shut it off" You can always turn it back on if you need it.
And that's it! I also go through settings to manually shut off apps and widgets or applications running in the back ground so I know they are shut off. Hope the video helps and subscribe!
