Does anyone know how to switch from 3g to 2g on the Samsung Galaxy ace and also switch off gps and bluetooth as I hear this saves on significant battery drain also does anyone know where you can order a reputable heavier duty battery for this phone.
Many thanks

    In my Desire it is pretty intuitive.

    GPS is in Settings >> Location

    WCDMA/GSM is in Settings >> Wireless & networks >> Mobile networks >> Network Mode

    Ebay for the battery. One option is to buy a new battery and a battery charger. They usually have a usb port too so you can have a spare battery charging and your phone.

    Android phones eat batteries if you use the features. I charge mine every day but keep a spare battery available too.
