Tips/tricks/fixes/links

Tips:

*Screenshot: hold volume down + menu
*status bar settings: click the three dots in the notificaton pull down ( thanks luckypunk)

*some apps we list will not just install or flash use a root file explorer like root explorer copy the app into system/app give it same permissions as the other apps in system/app then reboot you will get a message about android upgrading and you will have the new app you are wanting to install
*if you are replacing a system/app with one of these rename the original .bak so if something is wrong you can just delete the new apk and delete the .bak extension reboot and all is well

Battery:some are complaining of battery life...so i thought id add a section to maybe help out with it. not promising that any of these will miraculously make you get any amount of extra life just commonly used tips
turn off auto-brightness and lower it
turn off wifi,gps,bluetooth, and sync when not using it
turn off auto-rotate when not using it
make sure you exit out of programs when available so they dont run in the background
try using themes with darker colors some say the darker the better pulls less battery (opinion not fact so dont flame me here....)
go into apps and set the sync time on your accounts to sync less frequently
set screen off time to be lower
turn off haptic feedback, sound on touch, sound on lockscreen
try flashing a cm9 kernel and underclocking it and/or undervolting it
turn off some or all animations
try calibrating the battery
do research on software you install and use. delete apps you don't use, expecially antiviruses or other stuff that launches all the time
if all else fails set the phone down and walk away slowly.........

this is based on jokers cm9 so in theory the fixes and tricks for it should also apply on my miui
