I just got the Droid 2 for my birthday a couple days ago. I love it so far. I only got two apps so far: handcent and angry birRAB lol. Is there an app to extend battery life? Mine makes it through the entire day, but I have to be conservative.

Use youmail. The best voicemail I've had.

WWW.youmail.com

juice defender does. i dont use it anymore, i just set my screen to be as dim as it can and that makes my battery last about 1.5 days. get used to charging every night.

Yeah don't use juice defender, you shouldn't really use any apps to conserve battery. Its more managing your GPS/Bluetooth, Wifi, screen timeout and brightness etc. that will give you the best results.

Agreed. Stay away from task killers too.

Go to settings-data manager-enable background data, and turn it off. Along with turning down brightness and whatnot it doubles your battery life.

Now my question:

I have a droid2 as well, but I'm trying to figure out how to use gameboid.
I used this tutorial that I found and it has pretty good reviews from what you see:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dro...mon-droid.html
I've done everything it says to do, but step 8(locating the bios file) is a no go for some reason. I went to settings like it says but have no idea where to find the gba_bios.bin file.
Help me? I know some people in this thread figured it out.
