Hi!...
i don´t know if someone already post this TIP ...
but today i discovered an Advanced Setting on WLAN ...
Settings -> Connections -> Wireless LAN -> Press Options on left soft key -> Advanced Setting ... Automatic Config. DISABLE ...
There you can change the WiFi POWER of the signal when it´s transmiting or finding etc...
So .. the DEFAULT value it´s the MAX POWER ... very bad for the battery ... and it´s really NOT NEEDED that power if you already know that you actually are near to a WiFi Point ... so you can change that power to 4w ... the lower one ... and you still getting connected to near WiFi points and you will use a lot LESS Battery 😊
If you really need more WiFi power then you can change it to medium or more... but just if really needed...
May be the Radio Setting to disable do it some saving too ..
Really nice battery savings!
hope this help to that lot of people that use too much WiFi and kill battery to fast 😉
Anyway i am happy with my battery useable time... 2 days using regular phone calls, mp3 player and camera.. etc..
And i always use the battery to the very last bar and the phone turn off..
Then i always charge from cero to full charge with the phone turned OFF .. all night... when i´ll go to sleep ...
That i think make it the battery more powerful and really usable by almost 2 days without problems ...
All these was before i discovered this new TIP about WiFi power signal...
cya!

I really don´t know what you can be doing... may be too much use of many multimedia apps ... or too much call time..
and if you are not using the WiFi i pressume that the WiFi it´s set it up to NEVER detect and the WiFi icon is always off...
My Main Battry savings TIPS are:
- Change Network mode to just GSM if you are not using 3G
- Put the Display at just one step of Brightness (if you really need more backlight then change to more)
At night you really don´t need to much backlight on the display, you can put that to lower possition.
- Put the Screensaver on at 1 min.
- Put the Backlight go away after 5 seconds
- Put Sleep mode ON
- Turn off Bluetooth if you are not using it
- WLAN at NEVER show availability
- WLAN Advanced setting ... Automatic Config DISABLE and put TX Power Level at 4mW and Radio Setting Desable
- Don´t leave many apps running at background if you are not using them
Well that´s all...
hope some of this help..
cya!

Also done all that ,except the lower power for the WiFi, Will do that next.
Only use the phone very little no pics, No Music and mainly text.
I have also let the phone go completely dead and charge for 16 hrs whilst OFF 3 times now since the new firmware went on...well its on its 3 charge cycle now....oh well we'll see...
I wouldnt change those settings to be honest, thats going a bit far if ye ask me..
Theres no point having this phone if your going to turn off or reduce all the extras.
If you cant live with 1 day from the phone just get the spare battery or different phone..

Nokia decided it was in the best interest of the Nokia Forum to close the petition thread there.....surprise surprise !!!!!!!
I also stopped posting on the Nokia forum because I was constantly being told off and having my posts deleted or edited by the Mods

My login to Nokia Forums no longer works. (No explanation of why)
I only made 2 postings, one about the poor battery life on N80 and another which was complaing about something else about the N80...
Seems your face only fits if you praise Nokia and bow down to them!
Dez :con?
