Using power saver mode

Power saver mode helps to increase battery life. It reduces the usage of phone features that drain the battery such as the display and data connection.
1. From the Home screen, tap > > Settings > Power.
2. Tap the Power saver On/Off switch to turn power saver mode on or off.
If you want to choose which phone features to conserve power for, tap Power saver.
If power saver mode's Data connection option is selected, HTC Phone automatically disconnects from the mobile network after 15 minutes when the screen is off and the data connection is idle (no download activity, streaming, or data usage). It reconnects and then disconnects periodically when the data connection is idle to save battery power.
Keep in mind though that the Sleep mode option for the data connection in
Settings > Power, when enabled, overrides power saver mode.

Extreme power saving mode

In times when you don't need to use much of your phone, turn Extreme power saving mode on to extend battery life longer. In this mode, standby time can last longer than usual, and you can only use the most basic functions such as phone calls, text messaging, and email.
1. From the Home screen, tap > > Settings > Power.
2. Tap the Extreme power saving mode On/Off switch to turn extreme power
saving mode on or off.
If you want to set when to automatically switch this mode on, tap Extreme

Tips for extending battery life

How long the battery can last before it needs recharging depends on how you use HTC Phone. HTC Phone power management helps to increase battery life.
If you like more control by tweaking settings on your own, try out some of these battery saving tips.

Manage your connections
§ Turn off wireless connections such as mobile data, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth when not in use.
§ Turn GPS on only when a precise location is needed, such as while using navigation or location-based apps. See Turning location services on or off on page 141.
§ 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.
For more details, see Settings and security on page 141 and Personalizing on page
49.
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. See Disabling an app on page 146.
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 to edit and 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 Add icon to Home screen to avoid automatically adding Home screen app shortcuts 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 &
notification 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.

Types of storage

Want to know what types of storage you can use for your apps, data, and files?
HTC Phone has these storage types:
Phone storage
Storage card
USB storage
§ Moving apps to the storage card doesn't back up the apps. If you do a factory reset, your phone loses the apps. You'll need to reinstall them.
§ When you remove the storage card and insert it in another phone, the apps on the storage card won't be installed automatically to the other phone. You'll need to reinstall them.
This storage combines both the internal storage, where apps, email, data, and text messages are stored, and the file storage, where photos, videos, and music files are kept.
If you are running out of phone storage, see Making more storage space on page 78 for some tips on how to free up space.
Use a storage card for storing more files. You can also set some apps to store data or files directly to the card.

Making more storage space

As you use HTC Phone, you'll accumulate data and fill its storage capacity over time. Here are some tips on how to increase storage space.
Run the storage wizard
Free up space in the storage by uninstalling apps and deleting files you no longer want to keep. In Settings, tap Storage > Make more space.
Manage photos and videos
§ After taking continuous camera shots, keep only the best shot. Discard the rest, if you don't need them.
§ After editing a photo or trimming a video, the original file is kept. Delete original files or move them elsewhere, such as to your computer.
§ If you're only sending videos through MMS, use a lower resolution. Hi-res video takes up more space. In Camera settings, tap Video Quality to change the resolution.
Remove unused themes
Themes can quickly consume up storage space because themes can include images, sounds and icons. Remove themes you're not using. See .
Back up data and files
Keep only the most recent data in your apps and files that you often need to use. You can back up your other data and files. For some tips, see Ways of backing up files,
data, and settings on page 86.
Disable some apps
See Disabling an app on page 146.
Move some apps to the storage card
Some third-party apps can be moved from the phone storage to the storage card. Go to Settings > Apps > On SD card to see which apps can be moved. To move, tap an app, and then tap Move.
§ Moving apps to the storage card doesn't back up the apps. If you do a factory reset, your phone loses the apps. You'll need to reinstall them.
§ When you remove the storage card and insert it in another phone, the apps on the storage card won't be installed automatically to the other phone. You'll need to reinstall them.
