alright, im looking for a way to maximize my battery life.. lol.. im not expecting a huge boost, coz im not willing to really cut down on some of the cool parts of my phone: auto sync, live wallpaper, screen brightness. i know everyone tells me that these are the very parts that kill the battery quickest but these are the reasons why i bought this phone..

so im thinking of an app.. any recommendations? i know that this app will probably work by trying to cut down some of these functions too.. but i'd give it a try... juice defender beta? any thing else? if u guys are using something, n its working, let me know! cheers

He he If you find one give us a link and there might be 2 milion downloads in 1 day. Seriously everyone needs this program. I have seen 1000s of topics for the battery, at this moment there is no Real efficient solution. Either sacrifice on nice gadgets and brightness or keep a charger in ur pocket (he he kidding).
 
haha yeah, im not really looking for some magical solution but something to boost up my battery from the current 12 hours i get on a full night charge.. im planning on updating to newer firmware tmr also, hoping this will help.. right now, im leaning towards the charger-in-pocket option! :)
 
I am lucky and run the heck out of my phone, but just charge it when I sleep and maybe one time in the middle of the day at my desk.

Wish there was a charging cradle!
 
The one app that's saved me the most battery is Green Power - I use it so switch off Mobile data when the screen is off or when the Download traffic is below a certain threshold. So if I'm browsing the net, it stays on, but at a low enough level it switches it off.

It can also be set to come on for a minute, off for 10 etc so auto syncs still happen. It also works on the Wifi signal as well.

Apart from that I go auto brightness and things like facebook/twitter etc I set to sync every 6 hours - I can always sync them manually through the widgets on Launcherpro. My battery was at 81% after 15 hours off charge yesterday. Couple of texts, a fair few facebook/twitter catchups and some games in that time.
 
Not an app but rooting ur phone n flashing villian rom wud do the trick :P. What i have done and its amaziiiiing!!!! Plus support for it is good. Oh yh no app can really save u juice u want lol :)
