cant bear leaving something open to waste battery without using it, im so uptight about battery saving that i even shut off my wifi and network whilst listening to mp3s
Close, one of the things we have to manage ourselves having true multitasking and not sent to the background paused or dormant. I don't mind to have true multitasking when needed.
i always close apps and even put phone services off when im listening to music to save battery... tbh. i dont know how much of a difference this makes... maybe my battery drains fast cos i charge my 9900 with the playbook charger... i get 3/4's of a day of normal messaging.... thats not heavy heavy use, which to me is not great, but i dont know if its normal or not.... my batt must be gone... lool.. off topic!!
Good question. With my current blackberry device, like others above, I close them all to converse the battery and keep the memory data free as much as possible when using an app or two. Sercretly, I want to be able to keep them open and jump to different apps - I like to multitask. My BB device would crash or shut down if I leave more than 4 apps open for a long period. A-little annoying for me.
