Hi, my Bold seems to be running out of juice pretty quickly and I don't know if there's something wrong with it or if it's just the way that I'm using the phone. I have many of the basic apps but I usually close them after I'm done using them. I'm usually just sending e-mails and texts but the battery dies a little bit faster than normal. Are there any tips on saving battery life or should I just look into getting an extended battery? Thanks for the help.

I don't know if this can help any as I don't have a *Bold* (oh my I typed the wrong one sorry. had Storm there a minute ago, caffeine not working today lol) but searching the forum I found several threads, one is here Very Poor battery life on 8900

I also see that your a new member but signed up in July last year, so, Welcome to the Blackberry forums

Kirkland, for you:

Battery Use Tips for your Maximum Battery Life | BlackBerryNews.com

That's the link I was looking for but just couldn't find it, you beat me too it lol..Thanks for that Jsanders

I find when I set the screen to turn off sooner like 5 or 10 secs vs 20 or 30 seconds I get a little better battery life, just a tip but I'm sure a tip thats in that link you posted.

Just what I was looking for. Thanks again for the help!
