Tips for extending battery life
How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on how you use HTC U24 pro. Try
out some of these tips to help increase battery life.
Use the power management features
§ Turn Battery Saver on in Settings. See Using Battery Saver mode on page 67.
§ Monitoring your battery usage helps identify what's using the most power so you can choose
what to do about it. For details, see Checking battery usage on page 68.
Manage your connections
§ Turn off wireless connections such as mobile data, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth when not in use.
§ Turn on Airplane mode when you don't need any wireless connections and you don't want to
receive calls or messages.
Manage your display
Lowering the brightness, letting the display sleep when not in use, and keeping the Home screen
simple helps save battery power.
§ Lower the screen brightness when you don't need it. See Screen brightness on page 73.
§ Set the screen timeout to a shorter time. See Setting when to turn off the screen on page 73.
§ Don't use a live wallpaper for your Home screen. Animation effects are nice to show off to
other people but they drain your battery.
Changing your wallpaper to a plain, black background can also help a little. The less color is
displayed, the less battery is used.
Manage your apps
§ Restrict battery usage of apps running in the background. See Enabling background
restriction in apps on page 68.
§ Install the latest software and application updates. Updates sometimes include battery
performance improvements.
