Ask a phone engineer to help you dispatch the battery

Those lie lie people. They fit say they buy freezer Batery inside. That's why it's expensive.

Charge it to 100% then put it off. Make sure you keep it in a place that is dry. Nothing will happen to it.

My battle to leave social media (especially Facebook) has gotten to another level, so i think the only way i can win is to buy small phone and dump my android for atleast 6 months.

i have the opportunity to do it now that i traveled to visit my family members, so I want to drop the phone here and travel back to my base, with this, there won't be any temptation of switching it on to check anything online.

my question is, if I left the phone unused for 6 months,will anything happen to it? during the years of Walkman CD, i left mine and traveled to Lagos, spent only 2 months, on coming home, it's no longer working

is my phone safe for 6 months unused?

im not sure anything will happen to your phone. I like the fact you wanna zone out of social media. I wish I could do same but I'm a digital marketer so that's basically where my office is.

Leave the Battery at 50%. Separate the battery from the phone and pack both in a cool dry place. You should be alright.
why separate the battery from the phone?

What you need is self control, I've not used my Facebook for more than 5 years now,

For me I abandoned my normal FB account, but created a troll FB account to keep abreast of what's going on in the world, and to offer my candid comments.

I'm Adeniran Dapo the author of "studying medicine demystified" on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Studying-Medicine-Demystified-Adedapo-Adeniran-ebook/dp/B083W4KX8R

If you need mentorship from a fellow medical student, who will make your life easy in medical school and succeed, then send me an email on dappyadex4sci@yahoo.com, using "paid mentorship" as the subject of the email, you get free mentorship for 3 days to test, after which you pay 10k per month for my mentorship, which would be done on WhatsApp or physically if you so wish.

Also, I'm currently a 4th year medical student at university of Ibadan studying medicine and surgery.

I would be expecting your mails.

Just make sure the battery is at 0% before dropping it.... With that the battery will be totally dead maybe after two weeks and you'll just need to charge it when you are back

I think selling the phone is the best idea, after six months you save more to get a new phone. After all new android and even iOS are being released every 3 - 6 months.

This isn't entirely true, social media is distracting and addictive, sometimes one needs time alone without Internet.. Just touchlight phone for calls


if you say so. it means you can't control yourself. I use social media but I'm not addicted to it. when I don't need my phone, I just keep it aside and do something else or observe my rest.

All you have to do is tell someone you trust to be charging the phone at least once in a month until you return. Make sure you password the phone.

However, that's not the solution to your Facebook addiction. The solution is get busy working and you won't have time to use Facebook.

Why, if I may ask?
If left unused, the battery, over a long period of time, will discharge. Li-ion batteries do not like to get to zero volts. When they do,even once, they loose about 70% of their capacity, and become useless. So, if you want to keep your battery useful,it will be better to charge it.
