Battery Usage

 

Data Saver 

Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and GPS functionality all act to drain your 

battery. The following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve your battery power:

 

●

  Reduce your backlight on time.  

●

  Turn Bluetooth off when not in use. 

●

  Turn Wi-Fi off when not in use.  

●

  Turn 4G off when not in use 

●

  Turn off Sprint Hotspot (Wi-Fi hotspot) services when not in use. This is one of the 

largest drains on your battery as it is not only transmitting a Wi-Fi connection to your 

devices but is also doing it while using a 4G connection.  

●

  Deactivate the GPS when not needed. Most applications using this function will 

periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location; each query drains your 

battery. 

●

  Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted before charging your device. 

Repeating this process of a complete discharge and recharge can over time reduce the 

storage capacity of any battery.  

●

  Turn off Automatic application sync. 

●

  Use the Power Control Widget to deactivate hardware functions such as Wi-Fi, 

Bluetooth, GPS, Synchronization, or LCD brightness setting.
