Checking battery history

Check how long you've been using HTC Desire EYE since the last charge. You can also see a chart

that shows how long the screen has been on, and how long you've been using connections like the

mobile network or Wi-Fi.

1. Go to Settings, and then tap Power.

2. Tap History to view battery usage over time.

Using power saver mode

Power saver mode helps to increase battery life. It reduces the usage of phone features that drain

the battery such as the display and data connection.

1. Go to Settings, and then tap Power.

2. Tap the Power saver On/Off switch to turn power saver mode on or off.

If you want to choose which phone features to conserve power for, tap Power saver.

If power saver mode's Data connection option is selected, HTC Desire EYE automatically

disconnects from the mobile network after 15 minutes when the screen is off and the data

connection is idle (no download activity, streaming, or data usage). It reconnects and then

disconnects periodically when the data connection is idle to save battery power.

Keep in mind though that the Sleep mode option for the data connection in Settings > Power,

when enabled, overrides power saver mode.

Extreme power saving mode

In times when you don't need to use much of your phone, turn Extreme power saving mode on to

extend battery life longer. In this mode, standby time can last longer than usual, and you can only

use the most basic functions such as phone calls, text messaging, and email.

1. Go to Settings, and then tap Power.

2. Tap the Extreme power saving mode On/Off switch to turn extreme power saving mode on

or off.

If you want to set when to automatically switch this mode on, tap Extreme power saving

mode and select a battery level.

Monitoring your battery usage helps you identify what's using the most power so you can choose

what to do about it. For details, see Checking battery usage on page 46.
