Increase Battery Life some more!!
just Go to the Control Panel > Connections > Internet Accounts and click on the Other tab. Change the Preferred mode to GSM only and click Done. from where i got this it said it should give you 1 to 2 days more battery life and it works

But does that mean you have to keep resetting to GPRS when you use GPRS? I use it all the time & have GPRS set to auto disconnect if idle for 1 hour?

@psikey i know you can send MMS and go on line (wap). all this trick does is it stops your phone from forever looking for a gprs signal which drains your batt.

Would imagine setting GPRS to auto disconnect after a time period (minimum is 5 minutes) will do the same then. Only re-initiates GPRS when an application requests the service.

I've never left GPRS permanently on.
