I was seating at my desk in wow about my Hero by Sprint and it came to me that I haven't had to charge my phone anywhere near what use to do with the iPhone and pre(pre being the weakest of them). Last morning through the evening for example was the most use I have had to put the phone through. I mean heavy use people! Playing YouTube videos , playing mp3 music, surfing the net while listening. Taking phone calls and sending emails out multiple times and updating my site from my phone. And when 11pm hit last night I wasn't in yellow even then. Battery life was still showing green. I knew that this phone was going to get better battery life than the pre but I was blown away at how it took heavy use with ease and still was ready to take more. I don't know if everyone is having the same battery life as me but I do hope so. If not these are a list of things I do to every phone I have when I get it.
1. Kill the back light down to almost nothing and drop the blackout timer down to the lowest setting.
2. Kill gps and location beeker
3. For Google phone , I loaded task manager and killed any and all apps that I didnt running.
4. I personally never stop push email as a note but I hear that helps.
5. Only allow apps like Facebook and Twitter to update as needed and or every 30 minutes.
And that's it for me. Now I know that there are other things too but I never use anything other than these and I generally get the same results anyway. I hope this helps you even if you don't have a Hero, pre,or iPhone.
