Q: General Android phone FAQ's?
A: Here is a thread on general Android Phone FAQ's

Q: How can I improve my battery life?
A: Smartphones operate on a sort of spectrum. On one end you could put battery life, on the other end all those options like wifi/3g/4g sync (among other things). If you want great battery life you can't have those on all the time. If you want those on all the time, you won't get great battery life. It is best to find the compromise that works best for you and what you want most out of your phone. Here are a couple of things that you could consider - adjust the screen brightness, do not use live wallpapers, switch off networks when not in use (WIFI, Bluetooth, GPS), adjust update intervals for widgets (do you really need twitter/facebook notifications every half hour?). You could also consider downloading a battery monitoring app such as JuiceDefender.

Hi NorrieP. I had same problem with my Acer E3 and WhatsApp. My solution was to open WhatsApp and use the icon to record video and then record your video and send. This way the vid sends ok!
Not sure if it's a universal problem attaching prerecorded video to WhatsApp or a prob with the E3.

Hope this helps.

Edit: after some Googling it would appear it happens on a lot of phones. The answer seems to be to reduce the video quality from FINE to HIGH.

Hi, spinecho

Apologies for taking so long to get back to you and thanks for your advice.

I'm not sure I'll be attempting this with an Acer again anyway as today it failed me again for the SECOND time since I took out the contract three and a half months ago!!! Screen is not showing. I think I'll take it back to the Three shop and ask them to give me another make of phone as this Acer is not fit for purpose.
