hi
how do we do this? go to setting & select reset all settings?
or via any other option in iTunes?

DO NOT use reset on Iphone settings..

Better use the iTunes restore.. had an experienced back then when i use the reset setting on iPhone.. later my phone cannot boot up (cannot start) at all.. need to restore using DFU mode.. during that time im a noob.. i didnt know wtf is DFU mode.. so i send my phone on repair in a local shop.. RM50 gone to waste.. Its actually super easy.. lol

So the point is.. use itunes to restore.. dont use the reset settings on the phone..

if you cant boot up most probably you need to kick it out of it.
usually happens if you get error during your restore session using itunes.

tinyumbrella has that feature.

3g drains battery faster.. I dunno if ur on standby will it still affect the battery usage.. But if ur using it.. Drains much faster than wifi

The best solution is to get data Plan.. U need to fully utilize ur phone's potential.. I used to be skceptical bout data plan.. But now all telcos offers many kind of data plan that fits ur lifestyle..

Me myself using lite broadband from celcom.. Only pays 28 for the package fo 300mb data (which is difficult to fully utilize it coz im not a heavy user plus got wifi at home)

Try data plan.. U wont regret it.. Plus u can make ur friends jelous by on9 anywhere u wanted.. lol.. I know my friends do bitter with me.. Haha


Added on May 16, 2011, 2:12 pmLol.. I think my solution is not for the battery management.. Anyway.. Its normal for iphone battery usage..
