Here are few tips which can help you to make your android device battery last longer.
- Don't use Live Wallpapers. They're cool, but they eat battery.
- Lower the screen brightness
- Don't use Sense UI. That's HT C's home app. Again, it's pretty, but not friendly to battery.
- Prefer the back button over the home button. The back button lets apps decide if they want to run in the background. The home screen often leaves apps running when they don't need to.
- Don't use app killers! There's no need for them if you use the back button, and you'll end up crippling other apps because of non-obvious dependencies between apps.
- Use WiFi whenever you have access to a network because it uses less battery than 3G. (Shorter distance, lower power.) Turn WiFi off when you don't have access to a network, otherwise it will keep looking for a WiFi network it can use (which drains battery).
- Turn off any unnecessary vibrations or haptic feedbacks.
- Disable the keyboards backlight.
- Avoid using the speakers, opt in for using headphones
- Turn off 3G (if you have a phone that you can switch between 3G and 2G).
- Reduce the frequency at which apps refresh their content. Common offenders are social media clients (Twitter, Facebook, etc.) and news or weather apps.
- Disable automatic Data Sync.
- Finally, watch your battery usage under Settings -> About Phone -> Battery -> Battery Use. This will show you what has been using the battery since it was last charged. (So it shows nothing while charging!) If anything unexpected is using the battery, consider replacing it with another app or service.
