4.Use Dark Wallpapers

Your phone’s Screen is the biggest consumer of battery energy.there are two main types of smartphone displays: LCD and AMOLED. LCD uses a backlighting system that illuminates every pixel on the display.The other one is AMOLED (Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode) displays, however, have pixels that are individually lit; a pixel that turns into a color is lit, and thus, uses power. A pixel that remains black, is not lit and doesn’t use any power. If your Android phone uses an AMOLED display,you should use a darker or all-black wallpaper to make your phone more power-efficient.

5.Use Static Wallpapers

Live wallpapers are very eye-popping and interesting, But they suck your battery life. Live wallpapers are the main source of battery drainage.Always use static and darker wallpapers on your android device if you want to make it power efficient.The animations and transitions of your phones are also a big source of battery drainage.

This has an adverse effect on battery life.

7.Turn Off Vibrations

Another huge power sucker is the vibrating motor in Android smartphones. Electric motors are terribly inefficient with power usage.Do you actually like every time your phone vibrates inside your pocket.No, You don’t.

Haptic feedback is when your Android twitches a little when you touch a button. increase your battery life, but it may increase your phone’s performance as well.

To turn off battery-sucking vibrations go to Settings > Sound & notification > Other sounds. From there you can switch off the “Vibrate on touch feature,” as well as “Dial pad tones,” “Screen locking sounds” and “Touch sounds” .

Widgets are useful shortcuts but those which are connected to the internet also strain your battery.Remove the widgets you don’t constantly use.The Weather widgets or widgets for facebook,twitter etc drains the power so check what you use and what you don’t frequently.

9.Adjust Auto-Sync Apps 

Some of the apps like emails and contacts are constantly updated and for this they are auto-synced.This way a lot of battery gets exhausted while getting synced once in every few minutes.Turn off auto-syncing for Google accounts. If you don’t need every single Google account updated every 15 minutes, just go into Settings and Google account and turn off auto-sync for those apps you don’t need constantly updated.Some apps – like email – let you manually refresh when you launch them, rather than running multiple auto-refreshes throughout the day when you do not need them to. The same goes for Twitter, Reddit, and co. Unless you need constant updates or push notifications (like for Facebook or your calendar) just sync when you actually use the app.
