Charge the battery uninterrupted to 100% using the original charger.
Repeat this process two or three times to ensure accurate calibration.
While calibration won't increase your battery's capacity, it will help your device provide more precise battery level readings and optimize power distribution. 3. Manage Background Processes
Background processes can significantly contribute to battery drain, especially after a major software update. Taking control of these processes can help you conserve energy. Here are some effective strategies: Temporarily disable Adaptive Battery to test its impact on performance. This feature learns your usage patterns, but it may require time to adjust after an update.

TSX adds to weekly gains as technology shares climb
July 25 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index rose to a record high on Friday, with technology shares leading gains as investors turned attention to key events next week, including a Bank of Canada policy decision. The S&P/TSX Composite Index (.GSPTSE), opens new tab ended up 122.09 points, or 0.5%, at 27,494.35, eclipsing Wednesday's record closing high. For the week, the index was up 0.7%. The move has been supported by trade optimism "as negotiations have progressed on the U.S. side and also corporate profits that are coming in pretty strong," said Angelo Kourkafas, senior global investment strategist at Edward Jones. Policy decisions are due from both the BoC and the Federal Reserve on Wednesday, while an August 1 deadline looms for Canada to reach a trade deal with the United States. "That summer calm may be tested," Kourkafas said. "We are seeing some signs of complacency, which raise the risk of near-term volatility, but fundamentals remain supportive." The Canadian central bank will hold its overnight interest rate steady at 2.75% for the third consecutive meeting, thanks to a recent rise in inflation and a fall in unemployment, according to a Reuters poll of economists that still found many expect at least two more cuts this year. The technology sector (.SPTTTK), opens new tab rose 1.8%, boosted by a 4.7% gain for the shares of Lightspeed Commerce ( opens new tab, which is due to release earnings next Thursday. Shares of e-commerce company Shopify ( opens new tab added 2.5%. Industrials were up 0.7% as railroad shares notched gains and heavily weighted financials ended 0.5% higher.

Pernod Ricard sells Imperial Blue whisky to India's Tilaknagar for $486 million
PARIS, July 23 (Reuters) - France's Pernod Ricard ( opens new tab has agreed to sell its Imperial Blue whisky brand to India's Tilaknagar Industries ( opens new tab for an enterprise value of 412.6 million euros ($486 million), as the spirits group boosts its focus on premium labels. Pernod Ricard sold 22.4 million 9 litre cases of Imperial Blue whisky in the fiscal year ended March 2025 across India and other markets. Its sale of the brand includes a 28 million euro deferred payment due four years after the deal closes. The world's second-largest Western spirits maker by revenue after Diageo (DGE.L), opens new tab on Wednesday said the deal would be "immediately and meaningfully accretive" to Pernod Ricard India's margin and sales growth upon closing. The French group has been streamlining its business and focusing on its core portfolio of pricey, global brands amid a sector-wide downturn in sales. Chairman and CEO Alexandre Ricard said the sale would "sharpen our focus on more profitable and faster growing brands in India, as in the rest of the world". Jean Touboul, CEO of Pernod Ricard India, said the deal would notably allow Pernod Ricard to allocate resources more effectively towards high-growth brands in India such as Royal Stag and Blenders Pride, as well as international brands like Chivas, Jameson, Absolut and Ballantine's. Pernod Ricard sees India, the group's second-largest market after the United States, as key to future growth. Alcohol sales in India are projected to hit $61.35 billion in fiscal 2025–26, showed data from analytics firm CRISIL. Imperial Blue, a leading mass-market whisky, competes with United Spirits' McDowell's No.1 in India. Pernod Ricard regards it as a local-value brand, less central than its premium global labels like Chivas Regal. For Tilaknagar Industries, a dominant player in India's brandy market with Mansion House, the deal marks a strategic shift into whisky - a faster-growing, higher-margin segment. Earlier this month, Reuters reported that Inbrew Beverages and Tilaknagar Industries each sought to bid around $500 million for Imperial Blue. Global spirits makers are reworking strategies as post-pandemic liquor demand slumps amid inflation, interest rate hikes, tariff risk and shifting consumer habits. ($1 = 0.8491 euros)

Newcastle's Alexander Isak offered £600,000-a-week tax-free deal by Al-Hilal
Alexander Isak has been offered a staggering £600,000-a-week tax-free deal by Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia with further lucrative bonuses on top. The Newcastle striker is open to leaving St James' Park and Liverpool, who are long-term admirers, are keeping an eye on the situation. Isak has not travelled to Asia with his Newcastle teammates for the club's pre-season tour, officially because of a minor muscle injury, and is assessing his options. They include Al-Hilal, who reached the Club World Cup quarter-finals, losing to Fluminense, and want to make a grand statement by signing Isak – one of the most coveted players on the market. Al-Hilal, who are managed by Simone Inzaghi, are prepared to sweeten the package for the striker with bonuses if he were to win the league and/or the Asian Champions League and top the scoring charts. Isak has been unsettled by the transfer talk and he did not play for Newcastle in the friendly at Celtic last Saturday. The club have no desire to sell him and the fans would surely take the dimmest of views of their Saudi owners if they were to let him go to Al-Hilal. Like Newcastle, Al‑Hilal are owned by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund. Liverpool would not be able to match the personal terms that Al‑Hilal have proposed and it is unclear whether they would be able to afford the fee; Isak is valued at about £120m. Liverpool have signed another striker – Hugo Ekitiké, for £79m from Eintracht Frankfurt – and spent heavily in other areas, most notably the £116m package for the midfielder Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen. Their other big deals have been for Milos Kerkez (£40m from Bournemouth), Jeremie Frimpong (£29.5m, Leverkusen) and Giorgi Mamardashvili (£25m, Valencia). Sign up to Football Daily Kick off your evenings with the Guardian's take on the world of football after newsletter promotion When sales are factored in, chiefly those of Jarell Quansah (£30m to Leverkusen), Caoimhín Kelleher (£12.5m to Brentford) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£10m to Real Madrid), Liverpool's net transfer spend stands at £235.5m. It is possible they could raise further funds by selling Darwin Núñez, Harvey Elliott and even Luis Díaz, although they have maintained the Colombian is not for sale. Isak is contracted to Newcastle until 2028.
