b. Setting -> Phone -> Display -> Light Time-Out (lesser time to save battery but annoying if too short while you are playing games).

TQ, not becos of wat, there are some new user's arnd whom may not keen or expert in searching arnd old threads, just some sort of revise for them ..

Some fast goodies frm me .. if anyone wan custom goodies, request frm me ..

Welcome aboard !

PM TS

Garmin XT users ..

The new Garmin XT kills the battery life on our phones. There is a program called TSRAutostart.exe that is draining the battery. If you have jbtaskman and kill the process, it will just start again when you restart your phone. Here is a solution to stop that file from automatically starting, thus greatly increasing your battery life.

To stop that file from restarting, plug your phone into your computer and use the mass storage setting. Then, delete these two files

\sys\bin\CardRunner.dll
\sys\bin\TSRAutostart.exe
\resource\plugins\CardRunner.RSC

This will stop that battery hog file from starting up. If you install jbtaskman you can kill the process after your run garmin. This will increase your battery.
