How to Save Bandwidth and BatteryConsumption in Nokia N900 [Guide]

With this guide you will be able to save battery and bandwidth of Nokia N900.

1. Closing Blutooth , Wifi and other internet connection:
There is a useful program – AutoDisconnect  (automatically close the connection Wifi, 3G/EDGE/GPRS, Bluetooth) in N900. It will help you save a lot of your Internet traffic, and battery, if you forgot to close connection to the Internet, or turn off Bluetooth connection after sending the files to another machine.

2. Save Bandwidth.
Save bandwidth while surfing the internet in N900, Use of Opera Mobile 11 browser for the N900. This browser allows you to not only compress the traffic (opera turbo), but also greatly accelerate the speed of downloading and reading websites. Use this browser and built-in (via Wi-Fi), to surf the internet.

3. Disabling auto software update checking.
Just a lot of bandwidth and battery “eats” its application manager periodically check for updates in programs and repositories, which increases the bandwidth and battery power. To avoid this and use the upgrade software exclusively in manual mode to solve very simple – just run the command as root in the console device:

root

gconftool-2-t int-s / apps / hildon / update-notifier / check_interval 14.4 billion

Thus, we also increased the auto-refresh interval, which is much more than a day. And to us you know that in order to update the list of software repositories you want to use the unit for at least 5 MB of data, but this is a big blow to the balance in our not-so-cheap and the Internet.

There is another way: open the file / var / lib / gconf / apps / hildon / update-notifier /% gconf.xml and change the value in it of value = “1440″ to value = “999999999″, which is much more than a day .

Hope this Helps.
