Want to share with all users that I managed to prevent rapid power drain from my phone's battery by using the Task Manager utility and clearing the RAM memory each time before I put my phone on standby. In fact, each time I clear the RAM memory a message comes up and tells me the number of applications that have been closed. Before that there were a lot of applications running in the background that I didn't know. They caused my phone to heat up and slow down. Now I made sure that there are no applications running before I put the phone on standby. Now it's already 4 days and my battery charge has stayed on 50% Before this, my phone heats up on standby and when making calls. Battery power also drained very fast and I had to recharge within a day. Now I only turn on wifi when I need, turn off packet data and put my phone on GSM so that my Telcos don't suck away all my phone credits. I also didn't root my phone as I feel I didn't want to mess it up. The use of the Task Manager is similar to my turning off opened applications in my iPad by pressing the Home button quickly twice, pressing and holding on to the application icon. When the small red circle with the "-" sign appear on each icon I just shut it off by pressing the small red circle. My iPad's battery has retained its charge for about two weeks or longer without recharging. So, the secret is to shut off applications when you don't need to use them, especially if your phone is on standby. This post has been edited by Tookia: May 9 2011, 03:21 PM

special thanks for 3snow for sharing his knowledge! I finally managed to get assassin's creed on my SL.
by the way, this phone support or not the HD version? I tried playing the game, all the charaters have no graphics. Just white spaces.
Anyone encounter this? Should I uninstall and re-download/install again?

I use the application which is already in the phone, i.e. the Task Manager. Go to Application, look for Task Manager in second window of the applications. Tap on Task Manager and a window will open showing Applications running ("Running"), Downloaded software ("Downloaded"), Ram status ("RAM") and Storage. Tap on "RAM" and the message in the window will explain to you what it does. Tap on "Clear memory" box and a message will come up and tell up how many applications have been closed. You will be surprised at the number of applications which are running without your knowledge. As I have wriiten, it works the same way as you shut off the applications in the iphone and ipad. Hope this helps. This post has been edited by Tookia: May 9 2011, 04:09 PM
