So is there anyway to get good battery life without restoring as new Phone? I need all my gamesaves, pictures, texts, etc...

Can someone help me out?

Thanks

Ethan
 
Turn off wifi?

I should not have to do that..

Brightness..I tried that but nothing worked.
 
you don't have to turn off wi-fi, but if you want BETTER battery life, switch it off. and the brightness, what didn't work??? just lower the brightness level, pretty straightforward. these 2 things will help battery very much. also switch off bluetooth, gps, and 3g.
 
-Restore from backup, then:

-Settings- General- Reset All Settings

That's it. Just like restoring your phone, without losing your call logs, gamesaves, text messages, etc
 
No, the reason people say restoring from new helps, is normally because a app file went rogue and uses up battery life. If you restore from backup the app file is still there.

so is there no way to set it up as new and get your texts/contacts back?
