Getting the battery to last longer

How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on how you use HTC One. HTC One power management helps to increase battery life.
In times when you need to extend the battery life more, try out some of these tips:
Check your battery usage
Monitoring your battery usage helps you identify what's using the most power so you can choose what to do about it. For details, see Checking battery usage on page 46.

Manage your connections
§ Turn off wireless connections you're not using.
To turn on or off connections such as mobile data, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth, go to Settings and tap their On/Off switches.
§ Turn GPS on only when a precise location is needed.
To prevent some apps from using GPS in the background, keep the GPS satellites setting off. Turn it on only when you need your precise location while using navigation or location-based apps. Go to Settings and tap Location to turn this setting on or off. For more information on location services, see
Turning location services on or off on page 156.
§ If the Sleep mode option in Settings > Power is enabled, at low peak times, your phone will turn off the data connection after the screen has been off for 15 minutes and there's no network activity (no downloads, streaming, or data usage). The data connection resumes when you switch the screen back on.
§ 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 it simple helps save battery power.
§ Use automatic brightness (the default), or manually lower the brightness.
§ Set the screen timeout to a shorter time.
§ 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.
§ Set the web browser to auto dim the screen while webpages load. Open the Internet app, and then tap > Settings > Accessibility > Dim screen during page loading.
For more details, see Settings and security on page 185 and Personalizing on page
76.
Manage your apps
§ Install the latest software and application updates. Updates sometimes include battery performance improvements.
§ Uninstall or disable apps that you never use.
Many apps run processes or sync data in the background even when you're not using them. If there are apps that you don't need anymore, uninstall them.
If an app came preloaded and can't be uninstalled, disabling the app can still prevent it from continuously running or syncing data. In Settings > Apps, swipe to the All tab, tap the app, and then tap Disable.
48 Your first week with your new phone

Limit background data and sync
Background data and sync can use a lot of battery power if you have many apps syncing data in the background. It’s recommended not to let apps sync data too often. Determine which apps can be set with longer sync times, or sync manually.
§ In Settings, tap Accounts & sync and check what types of data are being synced in your online accounts. When the battery is starting to run low, temporarily disable syncing some data.
§ If you have many email accounts, consider prolonging the sync time of some accounts.
In the Mail app, select an account, tap > Settings > Sync, Send & Receive, and then adjust the settings under Sync schedule.
§ When you’re not traveling from one place to another, sync weather updates of only your current location, rather than in all of your named cities. Open the Weather app, and then tap > Edit to remove unneeded cities.
§ Choose widgets wisely.
Some widgets constantly sync data. Consider removing the ones that are not important from your Home screen.
§ In Play Store, tap > Settings, and then clear Auto-add widgets to avoid automatically adding Home screen widgets whenever you've installed new apps. Also tap Auto-update apps > Do not auto-update apps if you're fine with updating apps from Play Store manually.
Other tips
To squeeze in a little bit more battery power, try these tips:
§ Tone down the ringtone and media volume.
§ Minimize the use of vibration or sound feedback. In Settings, tap Sound and
choose which ones you don't need and can disable.
§ Check your apps’ settings as you may find more options to optimize the battery.

Tips for capturing better photos

To get better captures with the Camera app, here are some tips on what to do while taking your shots.
Getting the most out of Zoe Camera
§ When using the Zoe Camera, try to keep HTC One steady to capture moving subjects against a static background scene.
§ If using Sequence Shot to stitch different action shots in one photo, encourage the subject to make obvious lateral movements.
§ When taking a group photo, ask your subjects to hold the pose until you have finished capturing. Use Always Smile to choose the best frames and have a photo that has everyone smiling.
Improving focus and sharpness
§ HTC One has autofocus, which works best on a subject that is not moving too much. To change the focus, on the Viewfinder, tap the one you want to focus on.
§ If the subject is moving, on the Viewfinder, press and hold the subject to lock the focus.
§ You can manually adjust the sharpness of a photo by editing in Gallery. You can also set the sharpness before taking a photo in the Camera settings.
Generally, it is better to sharpen a blurry image rather than to reduce the sharpness in an image.
Taking well-lit photos
§ HTC One automatically adjusts the focus and exposure. If the image appears underexposed or that it appears dark on the Viewfinder, tap a part of the image that is in shadow. Conversely, tap a well-lit object in the image if the image seems to be overexposed. Focus on an object with a neutral tone for a balanced exposure. Keep in mind that tapping on another object may shift the focus from your subject.
§ If you are using the default settings and the photo still appears too dark, switch to Night scene, but place HTC One on a level surface to keep it steady.
§ If there are parts of the image that are in shadows and others are in highlights, use HDR to capture three shots of different exposures and combine them into one shot. Keep HTC One steady or place it on a level surface when using HDR.
§ When taking a panoramic photo, consider the whole scene and focus on an object that has a neutral tone to help keep the exposure balanced in the composite image.
§ If your subject is lit from the back, use Backlight scene to highlight the foreground and keep some details of the background.
60 Camera

Only for certification
Other tips
§ In Camera settings, tap Grid to help frame the subject better or improve the composition.
§ If taking pictures under fluorescent or incandescent bulbs and the subject appears to be off-color, choose a white balance setting in camera options. Check the image on the Viewfinder and select the option that displays the closest color to the natural color of the subject.
§ In Camera settings, you can tap Image adjustments and adjust the exposure, contrast, and others before taking the photo.
§ After capturing the photo, you can continue to edit the contrast, brightness, and other settings in Gallery. You can even straighten a slightly skewed photo by tapping Edit > Tools > Straighten.

Photo tips when using the Duo Camera

With HTC One, take and edit professional-looking photos with ease. You don't have to worry about turning on different settings to achieve effects that you usually get from DSLR cameras such as bokeh and parrallax.
Just launch the Camera app to take photos right away, and then apply the effects in Gallery afterwards.
Before taking and editing photos, here are some things you need to remember:
Composition
§ Match your subject with an interesting background. Positioning your subject with some lights or a garden in the background will add color and distinction to your photo, especially if you'll use the UFocus™ feature in Gallery.
§ Post-processing effects for Duo Camera may not work if your subject and background are too close or when you're taking a close-up shot. So, mind the distance between your subject and your background, as well as the distance between the camera and your subject.
§ Duo Camera doesn't support zooming.
Lighting
§ Use Duo Camera in an environment where there is a good light source. Post­processing effects for Duo Camera do not work for low-light photos or when the flash was turned on.
§ If lighting is uneven, like when the the background is a little bit under or overexposed, tap [_] to adjust the exposure settings.
§ Hold HTC One in such a way that you don't block the second camera lens.
