How can I figure out what apps are using up all of my battery. My phone doesn't stay charged nearly as long as it did when I first got it?

Thanks

What version of Android are you running? Normally, to see this you just go to settings - battery- and below is a detailed list of which apps are using the most battery power. Its normally the screen. If thats what killing your battery, set your brightness down a bit.

Also, there are some great apps on the market that monitor battery usage. Battery Monitor Widget is a good one.

There are also a lot of apps to save battery. Juice Defender improves the battery life a lot, and Green Power is quite easy to configure. They both turn off the wifi, bluetooth, gps and the data connections when are not in use ;)
