grin Again ... Charger. Use correct , recommended chargers to charge your phones. Incorrect chargers may likely slow down the charging rate and battery duration after charging. Get the right USB chord for better charge and battery longitivity

your device would still be charging after 100% charge. Let it be on charge for 20 minutes after 100% charge.

Post 1 and 4 are extremely wrong!

Do you know your phone needs more juice when you surf the internet with mobile data compared to surfing with WiFi? This is because the phone does more "work" trying to broadcast to the nearest ISP mast than when it is broadcasting to a nearby Access Point or Router.

You don't have to take my word for it. Observe your battery life when connected to Mobile Data and when connected to a WiFi.

Your cells reaches 80% of their original capacity after it has been charged over a thousand times. After this point, it would not be able to hold so much juice. If you charge your battery at every sight of charger and power, you would only reduce your battery capacity. It is not advisable to let your battery drain totally but it is better to charge up from a minimum level of 5%. People always charging phones at 70% to "fill up" their batteries and leaving the phone plugged after a 100% are only doing more damage to their batteries.

Re: 5 Battery Killing Mistakes We Make Daily by puregrace(m): 8:26am On Oct 09, 2016
Some tips can be Confusing, u know? undecided. I read it somewhere that charging your phone to 100% could damage the battery as no phone accuratelly measure percentage of the battery. That it's advisable to charge to like 96%to99%the to avoid ions over exertion or something.

Whoa! Try disabling your SIM Toolkit, and try again.

I'll get back to you later with a better idea.
