E72- Battery Emergency


Your are in the middle of the day and you just found out that only few hours lefts until your Nokia E72′s battery drains dead, What to do?


Following few tips how to get more of your E72′s battery when needed (Not for a normal daily usage) :

  • Activate the power saving – The E72′s automatically activates the “power saving mode” when battery low. If you would like to activate it earlier, press shortly the power button and select “Activate the power saving”.
  • Change to GSM network – Most providers has  two networks: GSM and UMTS. UMTS network supports faster data connection but also requires more battery power.  Change the network to GSM to save battery  power,  Menu -> Ctrl. Panel->settings->Phone->Network-> Network Mode-> GSM.
  • Turn off Bluetooth - Long press on the “Sym” button to turn off the Bluetooth (If it’s ON).
  • Turn off WiFI connection and automatic scan – Menu -> Ctrl. Panel-> Settings->Connection-> Wireless LAN->Show WLAN availability -> Never.
  • Close all other applications – Each running application consumes power, close all unnecessary applications.

Additional tips are welcomed.

    That setting about UMTS or GSM is only effective when you are actually online.

    Keep a mini USB cable with your laptop at all times, and you can always charge the phone from the computer on the road.
