    I have a question! My Battery has been going dead really fast lately, it's because I'm working in a bomb Shed on a Military base, anyways I think it's searching for service or something and drains my battery, So what I did Was go into my Permission Settings and turn off all the (Run To Minimize) my question is will my apps still work ok since I set the Run While Minimized ? And what does it actually do since I've turned Run to Minimize off? Or I switched it from Allowed to Denied. Thanks and look forward to your feedback. #BlackBerry4Life

    You must not understand my question, I'm saying my battery gas been crappy since I've been working in the bomb Shed, and I need to know how to save battery life by turning my apps to minimized while I'm in the shed. In not asking if anyone works in a bomb Shed that has the same issue lol Duh.

    Run when minimized probably won't save you much battery life. You May be better off to disable location services or check BBVE for device usage and disable or uninstall anything you don't need for the short term while working indoors.

    Other option is to change network settings but that may potentially impact your cell reception depending where you are located.

    Sorry...need to read posts better. I see you HAVE disabled run when minimized. It should improve battery life to some degree but that will depend upon what app usage was to begin. You could check that in BBVE.

    I have a similar problem when I use conference rooms in the middle of my building. If I am going to be in one for too long, I put the phone into airplane mode. Probably won't help you since I assume you still want service to take calls and such. Is it just a bomb shed or it also a Faraday Cage (ie: you won't get service anyway, or at least not anything worthwhile).

    Then I suggest you simply put the device in airplane mode when you are in the shed. Are you even allowed to have the device in there?

    Try putting your mobile data off when you have the chance. It will save hours of battery life.
