Hello guys,
I am quite sceptical about gaming and charging simultaneously. I've got 2 cases here:
1) You played for a long time, so your phone needs some juice. Put in charger, keep playing while charging or better to let it charge in peace without any load and continue playing after the battery is full?
EDIT: I found the sollution. Asus claims that battery shall not get too warm when charging and beeing under heavy use due to that they move fast charging stuff from phone into the charging adapter. So this question shall be answered by myself. But still some users advice to let it charge without heavy use.
2) Your battery is full. You want to play games. Keep charger in while playing or rather put it out? I mean that if you let charger in, theoretically the battery should not drain any power, so all power suply provides the plugged charger so the battery is not beeing wore, is it?
THX for all opinions/replies.
I have been playing hard with the phone and had used both cases.
Case 1, you can play and charge at the same time. That is why you have a side port to be able to play in landscape.
Case 2, if the battery is full, keeping the charger connected or not should be irrelevant for operation. Now what happens to the battery, is a completely different matter. Depends on the construction and the actual procedures that Asus has put on the phone to keep the phone running.
On both cases it's not good for battery health
In contrast to laptops which use the direct cable power supply instead of the battery when plugged in, android phones use the battery at all times, so if you connect the charger while also using your phone, the phone will use the battery and an the same time the charger is charging the battery
In other words, you are killing the battery with your own hands because being charged and decharged at the same time is really bad for Li-Ion batteries.
That's why they say first charge your phone up and then use it, and repeat, that is of course if you care about using the device in long term, otherwise, just do whatever you want and you're good for at least a year...
Hello, My phone problem is, whenever i charged my phone to any certain percentage like 80%, 90%, 100%, and unplugged the charger and using the phone, first 5-10 minutes its consume 5-6% battery and first 1 hour of using its consume 10-12%.
This problem happening to all roms including stock rom
So it's not your 'roms'.
Tell me about your fone, how old, and what type of battery?
Does the fone heat up at all when it's draining?
Is there an extra slight BULGE at the back of fone?
I know some charger's, like the iphone chargers, can and do lose their amperage, it's how they sell more charger's, by providing the volts but not the required amps, or in this case, milliamps.
Let me know, and I'll try to help quick as

My phone is 11 months old, and the battery type is Li-ion battery
no heat up while charging and discharging
cant sure is the phone slight BULGE at the back of fone?
By bulge, I mean, does it feel slightly fatter? Bigger? Swollen? can you take battery out, if so, is it neat and tidy, as in, lay battery on a flat surface, it should be flush with where you place it. If it's flat, turn it over, is it still flat?
Have you had any recent updates?

no its not slightly fatter and my phone has glass back panel.....yeah got new updates,but the problem is on every roms
but some custom kernel like etherious and agni kernel...the battery draining normally
So if your battery was getting fat, it would be time to replace it, but due to glass back, you cant tell.
Do you standard charge, or turbo charge?
Back in the 80's, I learnt a fantastic trick, read:
Batteries develop 'memory'. They remember how long they were charged for, in that they kind of copy the previous charge, and dont go further than where the previous charge was halted. Meaning if I'm in a hurry, and pull out fone at 60% charge, next time I plug it in, it MAY see the 60% previously disconnected, as full charge.
For instance, I buy a new battery, when I get it, I dont know how long it sat on the shelf for, as it's charge slowly dissapaited through non-use (yes this happens) while sitting on shelf. So when I get the battery, the first thing I do, is place an electrolytic capacitor (valued around double the voltage of the battery) and place negative of capacitor to negative and positive to positive on battery, the idea being to drain it completely. Once I get no power from battery, I then charge it for 24 hours.
This erases the 'memory' the battery develop's, making it like new from factory. The above is the 80's version of recycling a car battery. But you cant drain the battery, being sealed in your f'n, so try the following:
Grab a usb adapter, say a 4 port (mines a 7 port), and plug your powered on f'n into it, whilst filling the other ports with any other usb devices, the more power they need, the quicker you drain your fone., being the objective.
Do not plug the usb port itself into ANYTHING, and do NOT apply power to the hub.
Leave until nothing lights up plugged into the hub (have a thingy with lights plugged in to see the power drain).
Look for a 3.5mA usb charger, the type used for tablets, the amazon fire tablets charger is ideal for this. Once you have completely drained battery and know nothing else works cause your fone cant supply the other devices any power, plug your f'n into the 3.5 mA (milli-amp) charger, and charge for 48 hours.
This is the electronics engineering method of renewing a battery.
My scource is an old '80's magazine, co-incidently, I'm in same edition called CB magazine, the first ever printed version of how to make a battery like new. I hope this works, cause I dont know the actual fone, but if you do this, you'll have the added advantage of knowing you just 'made' a new battery, and learnt not to buy sealed fones where you cant release the battery to swap it.
As I say, if it's a hardware problem, you'll know after this.
Edit: I know apple mess with the charging cycle to make people buy new iphones, which they do in updates. Your problem MAY actually be this.
Good luck!

So in short You tell me to do that is, i have to connect a usb hub to my phone and discharging all the battery. then i have to charge my phone at least 48 hours/2 days?
Yup. If you take your time, and it's not hardware or update related, you'll be glad you did. At the very least, you make your battery brand new for sure.
Whilst googling, I found some saying some optimisation service wont stop, but hey, it's now down to you to help yourself

don't take me wrong......so the methods u told, really improved li-ion batteries..
and also i dont have any 3.5 ma charger....can i charge my phone on pc usb port
and when charging 48 hours, do i have to turn on the phone or charging with switched off

Yeah it works with EVERY battery made by man, unless it really is DEAD, like no acid to react to the li-ion, shame we cant add water like the car batteries of that time to prolong the battery life lol, back then was poor days, lots of handy finds were found...
I would not recommend the pc/laptop method, because I'm pretty sure those usb ports only provide 50 ma (a quarter of 2.0 mA, note the small ma compared with the 2.0 mA)
Power to pc/laptop end user style is 2.0mA devided by amount of ports.
Any single charger rated 2.5mA or above is what you want, so I use 3.5 mA.
Check old big phone chargers, look at the plug, go for more power than your actual fone charger, which I must ask, is rated at how many mA? I predict 2000ma (2.0mA)
The time (2 days) is to FORCE more power into the previous 'rememberd' memory, literally blowing it's mind lol. After this, you use your standard charger, this is only to fix BATTERY, so then we know if it's hardware or software, cause you did the work and patted yourself on the back lol
Edit: keep fone off while charging, just use another old one or borrow one till the charge is complete. By cheating you only cheat yourself lol. By doing, you WIN.

my phone charger is 18watt fast charger....than how many ma it has....and how many watts in 3.5ma charger??
Glad you asked. Your charger is a 2.3 AMP or 2.300mA like I said, try a larger charger
Look at charger till you get what I'm saying re: ma, mA or Amps (A)
2.0 AMP is 2000mA
To make it easy for you. 2.0 ma (how it's sometimes written) is = to 2000mA or 2.0 AMPS, but do NOT make the mistake of using 2000 AMPS lol, I'll hear you from here...
Electronics is defo not software and I forget sometimes i'm dealing in milliamps and amps, etc rather than megawatss from my radios lol
So you will look for a plug that MAY show EITHER 2000mA or or 2.0 AMPS. The old way to write milliamps were once similar, so ma was made mA to show amps. Keep my age in mind lol
