Why You Should Always Switch Off Your Phone Before Removing the battery by williamdeluxe(op): 12:29pm On Nov 20, 2016
See Why You Should Always Switch Off Your Phone Before Removing The Battery

when you switched the phone off correctly, it knows that it power will be shut down shortly. That means, all the apps and the operating system get the chance to save whatever needs to be saved and to go through their proper shut-down process.
Removing the battery without switching the phone off will immediately crash every running applications as well as the operating
system(OS). It's just like unplugging your system while it's running. You can do it, but it's not advice-able, a bad idea though.

Other thing is that While switching off your device, the operating system will make sure that every thing connected to the phone's memory and external memory is properly and carefully closed. If you remove the battery before switching off your phone, you may corrupt the memory which may lead to unexpected behavior.
To summarize everything, Please always switch off your phone before removing the battery.

There are times MTN or Glo would want to forcefully subscribe you to an unwanted package without a quit botton to exit.
You got no choice than to remove the battery sharply.

Again, i pity infinix hot note pro users and other non removable battery phones owners.

Probably this is not for blackberry users grin when off button won't be responding self, if you have used torch 1 or torch 2 or bold 5 you can attest to this.
