My galaxy s3 runs battery down,cant last for 1hr bt takes 6hrs to full

Any possibl solution

DonCortino:
Replace d damn battery!!

Homeboiy:
bought new ones two n still dsame thing

curvilicious:
Happy buttday bruv

It's caused by accumulation of gases produced as a result of electrochemical oxidation of the electrolyte .
Over charging causes the electrolyte to oxidize thereby leading to oxygen being produced and entrapped in the battery.

Over charging can be caused by a faulty battery, charger or a faulty electronic circuit that regulates the charging .

Nice piece OP, but what makes Phone battery expand Because right now the battery of my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 pro battery has expanded in size and is making my device uncomfortable

your phone has expired

I don't even believe no.1
When I compare the Gionee M3 mini I bought for girlfriend with 4,000 mah battery capacity and its 8G in built memory, with my Samsung J1 ace with its 1800 mah and 4G in built memory . With my phone battery at 100% , I can only use it for good 12 hours, while my girl can use hers for more than 24 hours.

Battery life has been a major concern for android users. Many theories about battery life extension have been formulated and it is no surprise that smart phone users follow them religiously in the bid to prolong the life span of their batteries without bothering to check the authenticity of such theories. Hacks Undiluted has analyzed some of these claims and has decided to throw more light on them.
Myth 1: The higher the Mah rating of a battery, the longer the smart phone stays on.
These are the topics that should make front page and not those rubbish u quickly push here.
Smart phone batteries are modeled to suit the phone hardware. The battery consumption of a phone is determined by how much hardware it contains and the efficiency of these hardwares. A phone which is likely to consume more power is matched with a high capacity battery in order to prolong its 'On time'. High capacity batteries are usually found in larger phones and tablets/Ipads. However, a phone which uses a lower rated battery does not imply that the battery will drain faster. In fact, a smart phone with a smaller rated battery may stay on, longer than that 'beasty' battery powered phones. This is because the device economizes the battery juices owing to its hardware efficiency and probably fewer hardware components. Just as we cannot say that heavy duty vehicles utilizing bigger engines means they run faster than SUVs with relatively small engines, we also cannot say the same for phones utilizing 'bigger' batteries. So do not get startled when phone manufacturers list a 'beasty' battery as one of its strong points as it could mean the phone needs it to compensate for its high energy consumption. Also, do not let the 'low' rating of a phone's battery discourage you from buying it as many will quickly say, "I'm not buying! The battery rating is too poor!" Don't crucify the innocent phone because of its efficiency.
Don't get me wrong. I never said a phone utilizing a high rated battery means it is inefficient neither did I say that a phone which runs on a lower rated battery implies it is more efficient than its former counterpart.. all I'm trying to discourage is the hasty generalization of cell phone's battery rating determining its life. A very efficient phone on a high power battery is plus but do not judge a book by its cover.

Myth 2: Killing running tasks/apps saves the battery.

While this may be true for laptop computers, it is a pure lie for smart phones. In the case of smart phones, once an application is minimized, it becomes 'frozen'; it ceases to make use of the CPU until it is reopened and hence, does not impact on the battery. When an application is opened, it is loaded in the RAM to be processed. The phone is programmed to automatically kill some tasks to free the RAM if it discovers it is running out of RAM. When you kill these apps by yourself, you in fact kill the battery as extra juice is pulled from the battery (to load the apps on the RAM) next time you decide to reopen it. Why not allow the phone to do its job ? After all, that's why its smart.
Because applications only run only when it is loaded in the RAM, some applications( like whatsapp, playstore,messaging apps, etc) find their way to the RAM and hide in the background because of the way they are programmed. These applications consume a lot of battery and they are they should be the source of your worry.On Android, you can disable background apps by going to your Settings > Wireless & networks > Data usage and set “Allow background data” to “Restrict background data".However, disabling background apps could make them to malfunction. Do it at your discretion.

Myth 3: Charging your battery overnight or overcharging it can kill battery life.
This used to be true for older batteries and technology. Smart phones have inbuilt technology that helps regulate the charging. Once the battery is charged fully, the feedback mechanism stops the charging process; protecting the battery from being overheated from over charging. Once it is detected that the battery level is below 100%, the charging process is triggered again ; keeping the battery level at equilibrium. This series of discharging and and charging however impacts on the lifespan of the battery, but the impact is not significant enough to effect any noticeable drop in the lifespan.

Myth 4: You can prolong your battery life by installing battery savers
I consider the battery saving apps as malwares because they cause more harm than good. They take a chunk of your RAM, overwork your CPU and pushes up unsolicited ads on your screen while doing virtually nothing other than kill apps. Battery saver apps working technique is premised on the ideology that killing tasks help prolong battery life- this, we have disproved in myth 2.Don't mind the fancy interfaces of the so-called battery savers. Some of these apps claim to fasten the charging rate; a lie from the pit of hell. They will rather kill your battery and block your screen with crazy ads.

I hope you found this article interesting. In my next post, I will writing on practices that will improve your battery life.Stay tuned and always remember to encourage me by sharing my articles with your friends.

Thanks.

I think that point No. 1 is true because my Tecno C7 is just 2500mah but the battery last till I tire self.

Your number 3 option is NO NO. Over charging kills phone batteries. Either new or old fashion type of phones. Give me examples of phone that over changing can't damage its battery

soldierdollar:
Over charging means charging a battery beyond its capacity. If a battery is rated 5v , charging it beyond 5v will depreciate the battery's life . what I'm saying is that overcharging is no longer possible in most smart phones as mechanisms have been put in place to detect when the battery level is full and automatically stops it from further charging through the phones electronic circuit .

prettyboi1989:
the first myth is an absolute lie. so op are u meaning to tell me that a phone with 2500 mah will last longer than a phone with 4500mah and subjected to the same rigorous usage? baba think before u write or copy stuffs.

wassade:
Now you clear yourself little, 5/100


But if you plug your phone for charge,when it's over 100% most times the battery will be damage even later affect your phone.
Are you mobile phone technician ?

soldierdollar:
What I am trying to say is that a phone which runs on a 4500 mAh battery may not last as long as a nokia torch light phone given that the latter uses less hardware.
some phones do not need big batteries to last long and some phones that use big batteries may not last as long as you may expect.

Read myth 1

kingobozy:
You've made some solid point op. Smart phones are called smart for a reason. I have a habit of charging my devices overnight and I've noticed no decline in my battery's performance and yes battery saver apps are nothing but BS. iPhone 6s has a battery capacity of about 2000mAh but e dey last die.
