Battery saving and better signal tips
I recently had a problem with my mobile, which after talking with Vodafone was quickly resolved. Just for ino if you are interested.
Battery saving:
Switch off Bluetooth when not in use, it gobbles up the battery.
Most 3G phones are set to find the best 3G signal. But 3g is limited in some areas. TURN IT OFF unless you really need it. I found that it gobbles up the battery looking for 3G signals. You don't need it for text and calling.
Same for signal strength. Turn off 3G as although it is supposed to switch from 3G to normal mode to find the best signal, it rarely does.
My phone is working much better now.
