    Has any one notice any battery life improvement after turning location off on your GPS?

    I didn't exactly turn it off, but rather just switched it to 911 only. My battery doesn't last excessively long, but much better than before...

    I leave mine on and my battery last all day with constant messaging going on. Maybe 30-45 minutes in phone calls a day. Some picture taking. Losta browsing and then I use vz navigator when driving to work and driving home from work for traffic reroutes and such.

    Battery does not last when I use it for multimedia and I then need to charge it.

    what the heck? i barely go 24 hours before it completely dies ... what do u guys to make it last that long? i do medium/heavy texting + aim and maybe 60-80 mins of phone call a day. Don't do much with apps and always lock it when i don't use it

    I don't have VZN anymore since I got the storm but I always have mine set to E911 only. No need to have Big Brother keep tabs on me when it's not an emergency.

    I let batter completely discharge the first time. Change the ringer to a lower volume 8, my ringer for the bb messeger, emails , txt/mms are very short. A back light it lower to 80. Also change the setting for night around 9pm a have a custom profile to only notified my when a call comes and my alarm.
