Do a Google search on how to get your best body and you’ll be inundated with pages of training tips. For those who want to take that same, proactive approach to creating your best relationship, I have your “exercise regimen” below. 1. Do the things you did the first year you were dating. As the months and years roll on, we tend to slink into our proverbial sweatpants and get lazy in our relationship. We lose our patience, gentleness, thoughtfulness, understanding and the general effort we once made toward our mate. Think back to the first year of your relationship and write down all the things you used to do for your partner. Now start doing them again. 2. Ask for what you want. Over time, we assume that our partner knows us so well that we don’t need to ask for what we want. What happens when we make this assumption? Expectations are set and just as quickly, they get deflated. Those unmet expectations can leave us questioning the viability of our partnership...
Its bad enough that your Blackberry doesn't have a great battery life, then it has to go overheating on you!
In this brief guide, we'll be discussing why your Blackberry might be overheating (and getting drained faster in the process) , how to prevent it, and what to do when you find yourself in such a fix.
What could cause a Blackberry phone to overheat?
Common causes of an overheating Blackberry phone are:
*.Charging via PC: Constantly charging your Blackberry using a PC (instead of a wall charger) is one of the major causes of a swollen / damaged battery
Incompatible charger: The charger might be too powerful or not powerful enough for the phone
*.Damaged battery: A damaged battery will not charge / discharge efficiently, resulting in overheating
*.Running too many heavy apps at a time: Running too many apps or too many processor intensive ones at a time will increase the CPU load, causing the device to heat up
*.Battery intensive processes: Battery intensive processes like high screen brightness, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth etc could result in overheating
*.Heavy usage while charging: Using CPU intensive processes / heavy gaming while charging is another possible cause of overheating
*.Buggy / Rogue application(s): A rogue application could be consuming system resources selfishly
*.Hardware bug: The Blackberry's power unit might be faulty
*.Poor network coverage: If in an area with poor network coverage, the radio will keep searching for signal and this tells on the battery
*.Insufficient ventilation: Stuffing the phone in your tight pocket, handbag or case could cause it to warm up mildly
How do I know that my Blackberry's battery is faulty?
Some common symptoms of a damaged battery are:
When faced with an overheating Blackberry, consider the following fixes:
*.Try a different charger: Avoid charging the phone using a PC, consider using a wall charger specific for the phone
*.Battery Replacement: Consider replacing the battery if it gets full or goes flat too quickly
*.Exit unused apps: Ensure to close (not minimize) apps not in use for an extended period
*.Save power: Ensure to limit the use of animated screen savers. Also, avoid setting the screen brightness too high (see How to make a Blackberry battery last longer )
*.Disable unused radio: Enable 3G, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth only when needed
*.Avoid heavy usage while charging: Avoid running CPU / battery intensive processes while charging
*.Remove rogue apps: Closely monitor which applications cause the phone to lag / throw exception error messages and uninstall / replace them
*.Switch to Airplane mode: If in an area with poor / no reception, switch to airplane mode when signal isn't needed
*.Allow for proper ventilation: Avoid placing the phone in ill ventilated areas or beside hot objects
*.Device replacement: The overheating might be due to a hardware bug / defect. Consider a replacement / hardware check if the device is still under warranty
