How to maximize your battery life with your MOMENT..

Best thing possible is the overclocking widget (root only).
It allows u to lower the processor power when the screen is off.

congrats.......i will be joining you shortly (instinct is on last legs).

I have installed every Root Required overclocking app/widget I found on the market...None of which would show me "current" clock speed so I can verify my UNDERCLOCK settings. Anyways I have since found the newest version of one of those apps from the actual developer who provided it for free. From the XDA Developer Website. THAT version I can specifically choose Samsung Moment...then create profiles in which cases I want to automatically underclock or set to max 800MHZ speed.

Other tips to save battery life:

1: Get the Brightness Widget (I can set it between 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% brightness. I keep it at 0% Indoors or At night, SOMETIMES in the car if I need to conserve battery.

2. Some sort of Task Killer. I have tried the Automatic Task Killers and they use just about as much memory as leaving the tasks running. Id rather leave the tasks running because then I wont have any conflicts with getting email updates and stuff. However if you use the non-automatic ones...You'd be constantly killing apps all day. Lose-Lose...but if you kill apps and what not it should help save battery.

3. KEEP the screen OFF if your not using it. Menu> Settings> Sound & Display> Screen Timeout> Set to 15 seconds. This could be VERY annoying...but if your low on battery...it helps.

*IF ROOTED* Get the setClock application and turn your CPU clock down. I noticed when setting it to 133 MHZ it lagged sliding through from one window to the next...well...it dragged...as soon as I clocked it back to 800 MHZ it was quick again.

Just figured I would post my current setup in here along with battery life.

My phone has been off the charger for 13 hours, with moderate(work) use:
-roughly 100 minutes of mp3 player usage
-43 texts sent, 36 received(including 4 mms)
-16 email notifications
-8 calls placed/received(total talk time of about 14 minutes)
-50 minutes or so of web surfing using Dolphin
-GPS Enabled
-GDE Home Replacement

My battery is still showing 75%!

-Root
--SetCPU
---Max 800/Min 133
----Profiles:
----Charging Max 800/Min 66
----Sleep Max 266/Min 66
----Power < 100% Max 800/Min 66
----Battery > 50.5°C Max 400/Min 66
---CPU Governor: Conservative
--Deleted Weather.apk so The Weather Channel stops pinging my gps 24/7

And that's really it... Just those two things done in root, and my phone's battery is a champ.

As of now, the easiest way to maximize your battery life is to make sure you update your phone with CL14.  Makes a WORLD of difference.

Stock CJ05 was pretty bad.  I did good to get 12 hrs out of it.  I'm pretty much getting a day and a half like you now.

Here is similar but different tip.

Would you guys say that if I've already had my Moment for say 6 months, I can condition my battery at this point??? Or is it too late?

By mistake, I'm not really sure what happened, the battery completely died yesterday. It took HOURS to charge fully, I mean seriously like ALL DAY, and when I unplugged it was down to 40% in just 30 minutes. Yikes.

(I am planning to upgrade to 2.1 within the month... need some time and determination to do it... I do not have CL14... does that change any advice?)

please help!
