1. settings > power management/battery > check what is draining your battery, perhaps an app, or game

2. There's a limit on user available RAM, but you do have 512MB of RAM

3. if the app is running in the backgroun it doesn't matter if you kill it, it will re-open soon after, thus, draining a lot more battery than letting it run in the background, if you don't use the app then uninstall it or disable the app(s)

settings > apps > all

4. Settings > apps > all > camera > clear everything

7. Android will close apps as it needs to free up RAM

8. if its a major update you do need a PC

5, 6, 9. there are other threads on this topic, use the search bar and you will find the threads.

As for ICS you have 2 options

1) wait for the update to be approved and released in your country, if your phone is or was locked to a carrier, you have to wait for them to approve and release the update

2) manually update your phone
