Cell phones are drained by running background apps, LCD brightness etc. Here are a few tips to help you.
Most importantly, batteries do loose their strength (even when fully charged). I would possibly replace the battery every 2-3 years with a name brand battery, not a generic. Also keep in mind, when your phone is charged at 100%..unplug it.

Hey Jenna lee, i got it to work so here is what i did. It was frustrating so i played with it a little here is the basics of what i did for android
Make sure you go to settings on your phone, then under accounts, click on google click on each email you have for syncing and then uncheck the boxes that say "sync google photos" and "sync picasa web album".
next..
1.I deleted all of my photos off of my facebook (i was going to delete facebook account anyway)
2. i had to uninstall facebook, then re install it again ....and right before it comes on it will ask you too syn contact/photos... select "no syn"
3. next i went to "settings" then "application manager" on my phone ... found the facebook app and cleared the data....
4. then i went to gallery app in application manager and cleared that data too.
5. then i uninstalled facebook again. 6. then i went to "storage" on my phone.. clicked on photos and then deleted all of my photos on there
7. i backed out and went back to application manager to see if my gallery app data was still cleared,.... if not then clear it again.
just make sure you are doing these things .. i was really playing with it, but those are the main places i was deleting at. hope it helped.
hope that it helped

Hello and Welcome to FixYa!
This usually happens due to corruption in the user data, try clearing it first then syncing, to do so follow the steps; (May vary, but will be similar)
Go to "Settings" then Select "Applications"
Select "Manage Applications"
Scroll down to "Contacts Storage"
Click on "Clear Data"
Go back to to "Settings" again and in "Data Synchronization" re-sync by pressing "Synchronize Now"

You can use the BlackBerry Desktop Manager to synchronize your organizer data (calendar entries, contacts, tasks, notes, and memos) between your BlackBerry smartphone and your Mac computer.
In order to synchronize with Microsoft® Entourage, Apple® Sync Services functionality must be turned on in the Microsoft Entourage application. To accomplish this, complete the following steps:-
note:-Back up information and data before changing any settings on your Mac computer.
1) If the BlackBerry smartphone is connected to the Mac computer, use the Eject option to remove the BlackBerry smartphone from the Mac computer. 2) Close the BlackBerry Desktop Manager. 3) Open Microsoft Entourage. 4) On the Microsoft Entourage menu bar, go to Entourage > Preferences. 5)Within General Preferences, click Sync Services.
To turn on contact list synchronization, select the Synchronize contacts with Address Book and MobileMe check box To turn on calendar synchronization, select the Synchronize events and tasks with iCal and MobileMe check box
note:- When Sync Services has been enabled and the OK button is selected, a new dialog window appears with the following choices:
1)Replace Entourage items with Sync Services items. 2)Replace Sync Services items with Entourage items. 3)Merge Entourage items with Sync Services items.
For Additional Information:-
Before the BlackBerry smartphone data is synchronized with the Mac computer, verify that Sync Services is turned on in the Mac OS X iSync application. This is done by completing the following steps:
1)Open Applications on the Mac computer and click iSync. 2)In the iSync menu, click Preferences. 3)If necessary, select the Enable syncing on this computer check box.
hi,
u will not able to sync ur data into ur husbands profile for eg: as u know u would be having ur username on ur zire and ur husband will be having his so there is no way u would be able to merge both the data , what u can do is when ur syncin ur palm to outlook u can sync it with ur profile and when ur husband's sync 's his zire he can create a new profile and sync it , and if u plan of using the same username then , u would get an error sayin duplicate username is found ....
Regards
