Do you turn it off then plug to the wall?
Or do you recharge and let it in sleep mode (Can this somehow shorten the battery life?)
Also is it necessary to use it till it goes under 15%? I'm in the old school era for battery charging, I always let it drain till 0% and then charge it.
I turn it off then plug to the wall..
and I let it touch the 5% mark and then start charging it

Draining the Lithium-ion empty is very bad idea and will reduce the battery's maximum capacity over time.
Li-ion battery works best when they are in a charged state, unlike older Ni-MH and Ni-CD, they don't have "memory" so you don't need to draining it to 0% periodically to reconditioning them.
I normally let the battery drop to 20% before charging.
I really don't think it's harmful to charge the Tab while using it, but the battery does charge much faster with the screen off.
That is the one thing I miss about the Xoom. It can charge about 1% every minute even with the screen on full brightness.
I turn it off before using the wall charger. I don't wait until any specific battery percentage, I just charge it if I think I'm going to be on it for a while.
I charge it every night in sleep mode. My theory is that the less you have to charge it, the less heat the battery will generate. Heat is a battery life killer.

Then I unplug it every morning and leave it in sleep mode until I get home. Usually only drops 1% over 10 hours in sleep mode.
I have a suspicion that the majority of batteries will last about 2.5 years before they start to degrade, regardless of how you charge them.
Is it possible to ruin my phone's battery due to overcharging? I charge my phone overnight no matter what percentage it is on, I still charge it I know this is bad, but can this ruin the battery? thanks
You should be able to charge as long as you want w no problems as long as you're doing this in a cool or room-temp environment (rather than say leaving it alone in a car charging at high noon w AC off, windows down & no sun shades on the windshield). If you have your phone charging in hi-temp conditions too long\often your battery swells & you get gradual irreparable damage.

If u make a correct use of your battery it won't get damaged. Extreme overclock, overvolt, etc can ruin your battery, but if u charge it every day because ur battery is empty it's ok, and u won't have any problem.

thanks man =) thanks to the both of you who replied
Normally, when your phone reaches 100 % full battery level, it stops charging and starts discharging. At around 95 % level, it starts charging again. This all takes a toll on the battery, especially over a long period.
If your phone's battery is at or above 50%, leave it alone or turn it off for the night.
I have an external battery pack for use during the day time, just for situations like this.

I don't think that's correct. It should switch to a trickle charge, which won't harm the battery, not stop charging completely.

It'll automatically stop charging itself when it's full, it's impossible to overcharge a modern cell phone battery these days. They are a bit more computerized than the old nicad batteries from back in the day. It's actually healthier to give lithium batteries partial charges at a time instead of draining to zero percent and charging to 100 percent.

I doubt it. Could be a faulty battery, but more likely to be apps draining it in the background. Install BetterBatteryStats and see what is using the battery.

How do you know your battery is getting worse if it's always charging?
My personal experience is the less you charge it, the better it will perform. However, when you DO charge it, make sure you are less than 30% battery and charge it to 100% before removing it.
For me it's easy, I basically charge my phone at night when I go to bed and that's it. I easily get through an entire day on this phone, though I admit I usually only have about 2-1/2 hours screen on time (I mostly use my tablet when I am at home)
Yesterday when I woke up my G2 has 20% battery left, then I charge it to 80%. Then in the evening I charge it again 40%-80%. Then today I woke up again, (In the first SS)I'm just curious why is my "Usage in Battery" reaches 46 hours 29 minutes? It combines the usage on the other day and yesterday. "Expected time to use" is 61 hours, but I know it is not accurate because when I started playing games for like 10mins it goes down to 1hour left haha. And in the second SS, I'm assuming that it also combines the Screen time of the other day and yesterday.
a 20%-80%=60%
b 40%-80%=40%
c a + b = 100% I think it is 1 full cycle and should turn my battery Usage to 0 min again.
Is this normal? I don't really understand how G2's battery works.
I usually charge my G2 two times a day because of games. And charges it when it reaches below 40% to 80%. I don't really drain it and charge it to 100%. Am I doing it right?

I think it is better to charge it 100%.
But if the battery dies you can always replace it
I'm a person who tries to not to do what you do because it could over time damage the battery. I always charge to 100% and try to drain it as much as I can before I recharge it.

And you'll damage your battery faster. Your approach was good for nickel based batteries, not good for lithium-ion.

only if you charge it to 100%, then the statistic will starts a new one,
if you're charging up to 80% and disconnect the charger, the statistic will keep from the previous full battery charge statistic.

Then people who always post their SS of the usage on battery of their phone that are hitting 2-3 days are all just being boastful? haha
That's why I'm always curious about my battery info because it is not always accurate and people tend to believe that their "usage on battery" info are always correct. I'm not saying all, but there are so many.
@chaki- do you know where I can find a replacement battery on my G2? Then if yes I will probably destroy my phone for charging 100% all the time.
@clapper66 , as @ddavtian said, it is for nickel based batteries only and you should change the way you charge your G2.

I have been using my phones always the same way when it comes to charging.
Have never had issues with the batterys.
My sensation xl is more then 2 years old and still can standby more then 36hr wifi etc. on with the original battery.
What destroying are you talking about?
Thats the same if you don't drive your car, not to change your car battery......
At the end i bought that phone to use it, not other way arround.
One battery doesn't cost the world. There are service shops that can change it.
That link is a good read. Gonna try it from now on as this beast of a phone needs proper care as well :what:

Nah, that's old news. Modern chargers and devices know when they've hit 100%, so they stop charging at that point and lets the battery dip down to 98-99% before trickle charging up to 100 again, and so on until you unplug. It's completely safe, and you shouldn't trust all those garbage click-bait articles out there. Do not, however, go down to 0% before you recharge it. That can actually damage the cells in your battery, so plug it into the charger before that. If you notice some funky behavior from the battery, like if it's jumping from 30% to 20% in five minutes, or is stuck at 10% for an hour, then it's a good idea to completely drain it to 0% to calibrate the battery since the OS has no idea how much battery is left (so it knows where 0 is again). This will usually happen after flashing a different ROM. Charge it up to 100 again and it should be back to normal.
I personally charge it normally at night, without quick charge, since there's no point in having it quick charge while I'm a sleep for around 8 hours. I'll only quick charge it in the middle of the day, which is almost never, since the battery is freakin' awesome.
Don't worry about the battery too much, but don't reach 0% too often, and you'll be good. By too often, I mean every 3-4 months or so is OK. I base these things from my Sony device which I've had for almost 3 years. The (sealed in) battery was very good out-of-the-box, and it's still very good after nearly three years, so I won't mess with a proven success.
To be safe on the longevity of the battery I use one of these with my wireless charger :
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003P...mer+outlet&dpPl=1&dpID=31OAEbif0lL&ref=plSrch
My battery is usually around 30-40% at the end of the day. I use the regular speed Samsung Charging Pad and set the timer on this outlet for 3 hours when I go to bed. So after 3 hours it stops charging and I don't have to worry about the possibility of damaging the battery (I know about trickle charging, but I think this is better)
Ive read somewhere that the new s7 edge charger doesnt have a power inverter so it keeps charging and wasting power which could damage the charger or possibly device. So know if thats correct.

At home. I do wireless when ever i can. If im not using the phone then i sit it on a wireless charger.
Battery hasnt drop pass 30% in the week i had the phone.
My note edge would drop pretty low because i didnt use wireless charging. So my phone would just sit in my pocket slowly draining.

Whatever you read, either you misunderstood, or the person that typed it was a bumbling idiot. A power inverter converts DC power to AC. Your source/utility power is already AC. A USB charger is merely an AC adapter made for USB. The phone has integrated circuitry that controls when and when not to charge the battery and at what amperage.
I usually let mine get to around 5% everytime. Then charge it back fully to 100%.

Not at all, but just try to not discharge the battery completely to the point where it turns itself off. It won't ruin the battery to the point where you actually notice it there, but it's better if you just turn the phone off if you're able to (unless it's an emergency, of course).

I charge it when it hits 20%. But i dont use the fast charging unless i need a quick top up
Does it hurt the battery to charge the phone with a different charger ?
Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
I never used the fast charging, I think that slowly charging a battery is better for the lifetime. Most of the time it is below 10 % before I plug it in and I also want it to be at 100% and ready (green LED) when I unplug it.
my note 3 battery is still superb and I got the phone since 2013
Best way to keep a battery in good health is to charge it to full before you start using it. Also, try and never charge it until it's less than 50%. Charging it overnight is perfectly fine it won't hurt anything but once ina while, at least say once a month let the battery drain all the way, try to turn it back on if it goes off sometimes there is still some juice left and it might start up, once it won't start anymore try and charge it without turning it on to full. I wouldn't do it more than say a couple times a month any more than that is overkill and may do more harm than good. These are the guidelines I use and I have never had battery issues. I currently am waiting for my S7 Edge and on my Nexus 6 I usually get 48+ hours with 4+ hours SoT. I'm just an average user currently.
Hi guys, I usually lost about 3% overnight with 4G and power saving mode. But tonight a strange thing happened. For the first time, I got a huge battery drain. I leave the phone at 01:30 am with 25% and this morning I found it turned off. I think that is impossible to lose 25% over 7 hours, what could be happened? I would like to know if the fact that the battery has reached 0% and the phone shutted down can damage the battery.
I am a little bit worried since I read a lot about the fact that the battery never should reach 0% and the phone doesn't have to shutdown.

No it can't damage the battery. At least not if you charge it in the next few days. Here's the thing. The battery voltage should never reach under 2.5v. If this happen, the small chipset inside the battery will completely turn it off in order to prevent further loss of voltage. When this happens, the battery pins will be unresponsive, meaning that it can't provide electricity and can't get electricity either. It means you won't be able to charge it with your regular charger. At this point it's not even completely dead, but it would need some professional chargers to in order to revive it.
With that being said, your phone shuts down well before reaching 2.5v. Unless you leave the battery it at 0% for days (or probably weeks) you can still charge it and everything will be perfectly fine.

First, thank you for the explanation, I don't know so much things about batteries, but I do know that there are a lot of legends out there. Usually I charge my phone when I reach 4/5% not less. Is that a bad beavhiour? About my topic, like I said this is the very first time that the battery completely discharge and the phone obviously shut itself down. When I woke up I putted the phone into charge immediately. I just hope that it's all ok, but I don't understand how it is possible to drain 25% of battery over 7 hours or less.

It doesn't really matter for Lithium-Ion batteries. It's not bad, but it's not good either. Use the way you like it. There's no harm in charging it to 100% every time you see it under 50%. There's no harm if you don't charge it from 0 to 70% either. It really doesn't matter. The worst thing that can potentially happen is to get some odd numbers for the remaining charge. Like having 80% and in just 2 minutes to have 76%. The capacity of the battery will be the same, it will last the same, only the indicator might be a little inaccurate. If you ever notice this, do a full cycle. Discharge it to 0% (let the phone shut-down), charge it to 100% and that's it. It will show accurate readings again.
But you don't have to do that constantly. Only if notice wrong readings.

Until now i didn't saw any wrong readings, except from 100% to about 94/95% where the battery drop faster. Except that i often let the battery reach 4/5%, but if it is not good i will charge it when it reach max 10%. About the 0% question i hope that this will not happen again and that the battery keeps its complete functionality after this episode
Don't worry, it's good. Li-Ion batteries are way more durable than the old Li-Pol batteries.
I hope so Thank you.

The S7 arrives at 1% tops.
It doesn't really matter for Lithium-Ion batteries. It's not bad, but it's not good either. Use the way you like it. There's no harm in charging it to 100% every time you see it under 50%. There's no harm if you don't charge it from 0 to 70% either. It really doesn't matter.

About that, i read some topic on other forums where people says that is very bad discharge the phone until 4/5% and they says that the correct thing to do should be to discharge the phone when it reach 40% of charge, because under that percentage the battery's life became shorter. This seems really strange to me.
