Battery types
When choosing a battery there are three main types:
1) Replacement Batteries (Genuine / OEM) – OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer and is the battery that the manufacturer has specifically produced for your device. This is normally the best option in terms of quality, time between charges and overall battery lifetime, but these batteries can be a little more expensive, so it depends on your priorities.
2) Replacement Batteries (Non-OEM / Generic) – Another cheaper option is generic or non-OEM batteries which are often mass produced in order to reduce their price. They can also provide longer battery life by having a higher mAh (see information below), so these can be a good alternative to OEM batteries if you want to save money. The quality can vary however, so we recommend that you read the reviews before buying. Another problem with generics is that they may make your device run hot and they can also void your warranty if your phone develops a fault. In general we would always recommend you buy a Genuine/OEM battery if you can afford to do so.
3) External Batteries– These are ideal if you’re going to be away from mains power for a period of time, such as camping, festivals and so on. The idea is that you charge the external battery pack (from the mains) and then charge the phone off that. Often external batteries will only last for one or two full charges, however very large packs (with a high mAh rating) are available if you’re going to be away for a longer time.
Understanding mAh
Before you buy, you should also check the mAh rating. This stands for milliamps delivered per hour rating and essentially tells you how long the battery will last before it needs recharging. A high end phone with a large screen may have a battery above 2500 mAh, whereas a mid-range model (with a smaller screen and less bulk), may only use a 1800 mAh battery. As mentioned above, sometimes generic batteries can have a higher rating than the genuine battery. For example, if your phone comes with a 2200 mAh battery, you can buy a 2400 mAh generic battery which should mean it will last longer between charges. As above, be careful with generics however.
Follow this guide if you want to check the data and WiFi usage on your Nokia 9 Pureview.
In this day and age, staying connected is essential. However, whether we like it or not, most mobile data plans put a limit on our data usage each month.
Browsing through Social Media may be fine, but downloading and streaming content can easily eat up on your monthly data allocation.
Reaching your data cap means that you cannot stay online for the rest of the month. Worse, you may be allowed to go online but it also means a huge bill by month’s end.
- Go to Settings → Connections → Data Usage
- From there, you can set a limit or data cap for a certain time period or billing cycle (a week, month, etc).
- You may also press the Menu option and tap “Restrict Background Data Usage.” This option will help you manage your data usage, especially for apps that run in the background (such as Instagram and Messenger). However, this also means that the apps may stop working properly.
To check WiFi usage on the Nokia 9 Pureview, follow these steps:
- Go to Settings → Connections → Data Usage
- From there, tap on the Menu button (3 vertical dots on the upper-right corner of the screen).
- Tap on “Show WiFi” then “Wi-Fi data usage.”
Alternatively, some Android handsets may need to follow these steps below:
- Go to Settings → WiFi & Internet → Data Usage
- Tap WiFi Data Usage to view WiFi stats.
- From this menu, you can also view data/WiFi usage per app.
The methods above generally work for most Android phone devices. Some handsets may have slight variations, you should just look for something similar Connections, Networks, or Data Usage menus.
Huawei users however have to follow a different process. Below is a short guide to check data and WiFi usage for Huawei phone users:
- Go to Optimizer → Data Usage
- From there, you can view your data usage for the month.
- You also have a Smart Data Saver feature. You may turn that on if you want to.
- You can also tap on the apps which are shown to be big data consumers and adjust their usage/consumption accordingly.
- You may also set a limit by tapping “More Data Settings” then “Monthly Data Limit.”
If you want to remove an entire text message thread, go into Messages and look for the thread. Then long press on it and select Delete thread
If you want to access your quick settings more quickly, then instead of swiping down with one finger, then use two.
This should take you straight to the quick settings, however it may not work on all phones and models.
If you are browsing YouTube videos on your phone and they appear blurry, then this is usually because of your connection speed.
If you are using 3G / 4G and you’re in an area of low signal strength, then YouTube will sometimes automatically reduce the quality of the video. Unfortunately this can make the video very pixelated and of poor quality.
If you are using the standard Android browser, then when the video is in full screen, press the back button. Then press HQ and start playing it again.
If you are using another browser, then press the Settings icon on the bottom right of the YouTube video. Then change the quality.
This may improve the quality, but it may also lead to buffering issues.
Another solution is to use a WiFi connection, if one is available.
To store a phone number that you have received in an email, hold down on the number and you will be given the option to call, send an SMS or add the number to your contacts
Android has a feature allowing you to update Applications automatically. This is turned off by default, but you can turn it on.
Open the Play Store App and press the Menu icon in the top left of the App. Then select Settings and in Notification section you can turn Auto-update apps on.
From here you can chose to do this over WiFi only or using your Data connection.?
