2 Problems

Dear Android Users,

Problem 1:
I have a few email accounts setup on my phone and it loads a bunch of messages and marks these as unread. I am talking about 100+ emails. I felt like such a loser when I was pressing the next button for a 100+ times while i was on my way to School... :eek:

Is there any way I can select all the emails and mark them as read?
I did look around and I found someone answering the following: "the checkmarks"

Can anyone tell me how to achieve this?

Problem 2:

When your battery runs out of power, It will tell you to connect your phone to the charger. But it also gives you this nice option to view "battery usage". It shows you what apps use battery power on the phone.

How can I view this without waiting for the battery to give me that message?



Thanks in advance

Dial the number *#*#4636#*#*

It brings up a test menu with useful statistics on it.

Ah yes. Go to Settings -> About Phone -> Battery -> Battery Use

Thank you for this info! My request to problem number 2 is solved.

problem 2
download task killer from the market place, you can shut any app running in the background saving power

sorry I forgot to paste the link Advanced Task Killer v1.7.9 Application for Android | Productivity
there are other apps that do the same thing, I use the one above and I know is good

Thanks a lot! I have downloaded and installed this application. Works fine! It automatically has every task checked and as soon as i terminated those tasks my phone rebooted xD!


Is there anyone who knows the answer to my first problem?

Thanks in advance
