who are doing a lot of multi-tasking on the smartphones, usually the 2G signals
are stronger and phone need to do less work while searching for it. For
extended battery life and performance keep your phone on 2G if possible.

Apps which you have not used for last 15 days. I always periodically check my

5. Disable
unwanted Functions like Bluetooth & Location Settings – First thing you need to do is check and
disable the location tracking, in case it is own and your maps application is

for new devices in vicinity and adds load to the processor by continue to keep the
smartphone awake.

6. Don’t Use the
Smartphone when Charging – This is the
cardinal rule you must follow, must not play games or use data to watch videos

stress and definitely all of the smartphone will heat up due to this.
