Hey guys I'm new to this forum and looking for some help/tips. I've had my Droid X since the release date and am very happy with it. However, as of late, I've noticed my battery life beginning to deteriorate. Typically, I fully charge my phone every morning and with heavy texting, moderate web browsing, and slight game playing, my battery gets down to about 10% by six every night. At first, I was using Advanced Task Killer, but then removed it when I updated to 2.2. I just reinstalled it because the battery has been so poor to see what, if any, change it would make.
Basically, I'm looking for help on how to improve my battery life. It seems like I have a million apps running in the background at all times even if I'm not using them (etc. CityID, BBC News, Music, Maps). Also, I'm interested in rooting but don't really know where to begin. I use my phone for e-mail, texting, calling, games, and web browsing and thats about it. Any tips or help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
