I do have nokia E72 know but would like to trade it for the Omnia II. Omnia II has more advantages due to OS platform(You can install any preferable OS as compared to Nokia E72).

So, is good to check and close the aplications when you finish your work with the device, because they are the main reason for draining the battery. Trust me, I know what I am saying.

            Go to Settings > General Settings > Button

            then open "X" button. turn on the "Enable to end running programs by tapping "X""

            Every time you tap the X button on the upper right corner of your screen, the application will shutdown instead of it staying in the background.

                    i am using Omnia II from last 2 months . It is a great device .
                    But i am having some problems , can anyone suggest me a way out :
                    1. when downloading files like Mp3 , thru. OPERA Browser the browser shuts down by itself after downloading only 400-500 kbs . Whereas it never happened in my Nokia e61i.
                    I have tried it many times but every time the browser shuts down , i even tried after restarting the phone .

                            karl, 14 Feb 2010i bought this phone a month ago yah its good my but i have ... moreMy settings are:

                            Network: Automatic (most of the time it's on 3G. It depends upon the strength of the 3G network)
                            CPU: Auto
                            Brightness: Auto

                            My battery last for more than 2 days if its running the usual apps I;m using like media player for MP3, SMS and a few games.

                            I can watch up to 4 full length movies before my battery drops to 10%. I really am puzzled with the battery issues of other guys here. The network will drain your battery fast if you are in a weak reception area because your phone will exert more effort to stay connected. That's why you have to set it in automatic so the phone can move from GSM to EDGE to 3G which will improve your battery life.

                              WM has it's issues, but it's getting better (although it's far from perfection) and it's more "experienced". More apps, but more problems. ;)

                              If you want to take the risk, go for android. If you prefer not to risk, go for WM. Hope this helps.
