Hey does anybody have any or know of any apps that help out battery life and some memory cleaner/booster...that they recommend?
I have both battery booster and memory booster installed on my phone. While memory booster does recover memory when you push boost memory, it is usually so little it is hardly worth it IMO. Battery booster IMO does absolutely nothing for improving battery life.Quote:

i agree with BM
neither program really works like people would want it to
just make sure to completly close apps and memory should stay stable
I have an update for you as well. I deleted battery booster this morning and according to meterberry I went from 3-5% drain (using battery booster) to 1-2% without it. So as of right now I would not recommend putting on battery booster (or as I am calling it Battery Vampire) lol.
Also just a side not I have been tracking down a pretty big memory leak over the last few days, and as of right now it looks like quick pull might be the leaker. Since deleting it I have not dropped below 35mb it has been 4 hours, and that is great for me as I have a ton of apps on this phone :)
Wow, seriously? I never would have guessed QuickPull would be the culprit. Have you tried SoftReset? I'd like to know if you get similar memory results.Quote:

No meterberry is not free :grumble:Quote:

(but apparently a lot of people have been having problems with both quickpull & softreset on the storm, & this doesn't). I guess like meterberry (I've never used meterberry) but with out all the logging, therefore it's a much lighter app. I've had no memory leak or battery problems with this app either.
