How many of yall use the fast charger overnight? I do have a BlackBerry charger (850mA) which takes like 4.5hours to fully charge, so I use that to charge overnight.
Is it okay to use the fast charger for overnight charging?
I do. I have the phone for a short time (2-3 weeks) But no problems yet.
i charge in the morning for 30min -1h or in the evening to 90%+. i always charge to around 90% for batteryinfo to reset.
While the poco is charging the phone says its better to charge often short instead of overcharging the battery.
To your question, it should be alright to charge overnight. Just make sure it has good ventilation (not on your bed or under things.
If you want to preserve battery life cycle, then no. The closer to 100% you get, the worse it is for battery.
I prefer charging at night and in the morning if it's below 70%.
Otherwise, I will charge in the morning before work, and in the afternoon.
I only charge to 80% where possible
I had a bad experience with LG flex 2, I always used fast charger to charge overnight and with 2 years I got 2 dead batteries. Now I use Battery Charge Limit app and slow charger overnight. It stops charge at certain level like 75%. And that lasts for a full day for me.

I used to do this. But I've noticed that on days I don't fully charge the device, I have to plug in again mid day / evening, ending up using more than 1 battery cycle. If charged to a 100% at the end of the day it'll still have 20-30% left

This could be the result of a few factors.
Does the phone automatically cut off power when fully charged. Most new phones do cut off power or at least slow down the charge rate. If it does not, overcharging is one of the worst enemy of battery longevity/lifespan.
After power cut off, does it resume after the power gets below a certain level, or does it charge at a slower rate. Charging at a slower rate helps but it is still overcharging, so the slower the better.
As I mentioned previously, battery temperature. Fast/quick charging doesn't actually affect battery longevity/lifespan as long as the heat is controlled properly. A phone charging at 50 degrees Celsius at 5 watt (5 volt, 1 ampere) will be dead (unusable) faster than a phone charging at 35 degrees Celsius at 18 watt (9 volt, 2 ampere).

If by battery cycle, you mean how many times it is charged, then true.
In terms of battery longevity/lifespan, then it's not very good.

Hey everyone,
I'm using the "Battery Calibration" app to calibrate my GS2 battery, and I have already charged it to 100% and wiped the "batterystats.bin" file, and completely discharged it.
Now I have a question about charging it back to 100% - I'm going to be charging it while the phone is turned off, so how long should I leave it on charge before I can be absolutely sure it's at 100%? Some posts suggest 24 hours, while others say overnight or even 8 hours or so is completely fine and enough for the battery to become fully charged. Also, I don't need to "bump charge" to properly calibrate it, correct? I just let it charge to 100% now, and then I can use it as normal, right?
Thanks in advance for your help!
8hours ish should take you upto 100%
And after its upto 100% its fine to use it as normal.

...yep...when you see on the display (by clicking home button) the battery icon showing inside 100% then you can unplug your phone and use it normally...battery have a limit of charge just to avoid corruption so when they are at 100% they automatically stop to receive more charge...that's why I think is useful to leave the phone in charge more than he need.

...sorry I haven't seen you already answer
Thanks for the responses guys!
Now, it has been about 3 hours since I put my phone for charging, turned off, at a completely discharged 0% battery (I even tried download mode before I put it for charging, to make sure it was completely discharged), and now the charge meter is showing 100%...
I'm pretty sure that 3 hours is a VERY short time to charge to 100%... I haven't taken it off the charger yet, so would you recommend waiting a few more hours (maybe 5 more hours?), or is it fine to just take it off the charger right now?
I'm worried a bit now, because 3 hours seems an extremely short amount of time to charge a battery that is 'supposed' to run for 18+ hours...
Well, I just read that 3 hours is about normal, so thank you for your help!

...you are welcome bro
Firstly, there isn't such a thing as battery calibration with Lithium batteries. Since there is NO MEMORY EFFECT.
Lithium batteries are not Lead Acid batteries, it does not need 8hr to 16hr trickle charge.
Charging is controlled by BMS, there is no such thing as Charging past 100%. So when it is considered 100% by the BMS (Voltage), the BMS will stop charging it.
Lithium batteries gets damaged when there is less than 10% charge, so emptying it to 0% is not a good idea. You cannot really extend Lithium batteries lifespan since it only has a 2+1/2 yr lifespan, 2000 to 5000 deep charge cycles and around 2,000,000 micro charge cycles. It is better to charge anytime you want, as long as it does not go below 10% (Most electronic equipments will state 0% at that time).
Deep Charge Cycle, when close to 0% (10% charge left in battery) you can charge 2000 times back to 100% (depending on quality of battery)
Micro Charge Cycle, when roughly above 40%, you can charge 2,000,000 times back to 100%.
Soooo..... would you like to limit battery charging cycles to 2000 or prefer that you can charge it 2,000,000 times?
This morning went into battery saver to see the estimate of battery life when I unplug and noticed that the phone stopped charging at 96%. It was charging the whole night. Unplugged. Waited. Plugged it in again but it sat there at 96% and not charging any further.
I noticed the same after updating to latest firmware yesterday (11500). Though I still get more charge than before the update. But the last 4% wont charge for some reason although the battery indicator shows as full when the phone says its fully charged.
Probably not an issue, Samsung often do it on purpose.
I don't believe it's an issue either. At least I do not worry about it. It's just a number that doesn't impact the phones functionality.
I´m spanish, just in case you want to answer to me in castellano . I also had the same issue. When i charged it the second time, it reached 100 %, but full charge capacity lowered to 1380 mAh.
In that ocassion the battery was depleted in 11 hours with a high discharging rate. Strange thing is that today when I charged it for the third time discharge rate is low again, something around 120 mAh and the battery´s life expectancy is back again to normal (27 hours or so).
Anyway, the full capacity is still around 1380 mAh. I say around because the number changes by the day.
Saludos.
Yes, running 11500 and only noticed it today. The other day when I actually checked battery saver in the morning it was at 100% and 1 day 3 hours remaining with 1517 mAh full capacity ... today, as I mentioned, 96% and just 23 hours remaining at 1470 mAh full capacity. It appears that there is still something screwy with the battery. The phone does last longer than before however.
Had similar issues with HTC Desire back in the days when it wouldn't charge to 100% required full discharge or battery recalibration.
Now mine charges up to 100%. It was just the first charge after update that went up to 96% only.
The maximum charge capacity fluctates from time to time. Nothing to worry about it just does that I assume.
What is det estimatet time remaining after charging 100%?
Around 1 day and 15 hours.
I have the same issue! I left the phone charging the whole night, the morging after the battery charge indicator was 100%, but as soon as i un-plug the usb charging cable it fall back to 97%!
I suggest you to use the nokia diagnostic app to see the charging percentage of the battery, in my case is never up 97%. I think It's a WP7 bug...
The bug isn't that big.
I've had mine stuck on 45% for a while, that was really annoying
Is anybody having problems fully charging the battery to100 percent? I noticed the battery life has gotten worse since I owned the phone. it would always charge 100 percent. Now it only charges to about 98 percent. I made sure all active apps are turned off and running apps as well turned off. I will turn my phone off at least once a week and fully charge it overnight. I notice after doing this the battery life Is always worse.

Don't believe your battery bar...

The phones charges to 100% and then it stops charging if left on the charger. So you will lose 2% or 3% of battery power before it start charging again. This is designed to help keep the battery healthy as its usually not a good idea to leave the phone charging for long periods of time.
I charge mine until the thing on the status bars pops up indicating "full" and then remove from charger. The "full" indicator pops up about a half hour after the phone shows 100% which I find odd however... That also might be a battery health thing as they probably don't want you to charge it to absolute max, so maybe by saying 100% whens its more like 97% that it helps with battery health...

It trickle charges for a while after hitting 100%, then shuts off giving you the "unplug me" notification, drains a few %, then back to trickle charging.
In the morning if you unplug it and then plug it back in it will be fully charged in less than 30 minutes. To the full 100%.
When I first got my phone I was playing with it so much (and testing out the true battery capacity) I was often plugging it in at night with a nearly dead battery - which takes longer to fully charge overnight. So by morning it had only stopped charging an hour or two earlier so it still showed 100% for a while. Lately its been at 60-70% so by morning it has been done for 4-5 hours. So after booting it often shows 98%. No difference in battery capacity, just a longer time post-charge where it has drained a percent or two.

Try the unplug-then-replug routine one morning to restart the charging process. See if it is better that day. If it is, you are probably running into the same problem I talked about in my last paragraph.
Hi guys,
I want to share to those that may be doesn't know how to extend battery for a little bit.
I have tested this method for months and it works well on my D802 G2.
Here how to do it :
1) when you charging your phone and the battery status shows 100% don't unplug your charger yet
2) touch your charger and if it still hot, don't unplug it
3) you can unplug your charger when it is became cold, on my case, it could took around 15-20 minutes later
See for your self, if it could improve your battery life. For me, it is like having a 110% battery capacity.
For best result
Charge your phone while it is off and battery level not less than 15%

Yeah, I got it. i saw when i charged my LG G2 over the night, tomorrow its battery decreased very slowly. But sometime i charged it around 9x%, the battery decreased so fast @@
Yeah right.
I'm doing this since still using G Pro,
100 to 99 = Insane
99 - 98 = At least better than normal
98 - 0 = Normal
I use Android Tuner, you can see what your actual charge voltage is and track when it really is full before you unplug.

i just leave my charger plugged in. when i go to bed, i plug it in, and 6-7 hours later i unplug it. it trickle charges when it gets to 100% anyway. meaning the charge goes down a little and goes back up a little. yes, i guess this wastes more electricity but it is so minor. also the G2 has a capability that when fully charged at 100%, the voltage of the battery is different, so the battery lasts longer at the 100% mark. once it hits 99%, battery life starts to drop at a normal rate. i read about this in another post on xda, forgot where. it used to take me 25 minutes of watching an HD mkv file at max brightness on mx player to drop from 100 to 99. nowadays it takes 20 minutes.
The best results will be if you charge the phone from PC usb port,charge it at night and take it in the morning.
It sounds good. I'll try it.
Thank you!
For best results charge your phone in the freezer.....
Ok just had too
But this is true ^. LOL @woof123, a slow charge doesn't change a thing with these batteries. Fast charge doesn't even get hot enough to be detrimental. The top 1% idea is indeed true. I'm gonna make a slim refillable liquid nitrogen cartridge to place over battery. Win.
Im not talking about battery degration from fast charging,by charging my phone over the usb i noticed that it lasts longer vs the charger.
Just use greenfiy and the donate version
Hibernate every app besides system Apps.
Nothing will run ever again in background while hibernated.
And yes it works and no the app itself does not cause its own drain.
Greenify is highly noted in every forum across xda

With these non removable batteries, I'm more concerned with ensuring that I don't harm the battery. I was reading that leaving it charging past 100 percent might shorten its life span. I've been using. Battery full notifier to avoid doing that.
Sent from my LG-LS980 using XDA Premium App
The general behavior of charging batteries like these is that the first 80% of the actual battery capacity gets charged very quickly (usually takes 1-3 hours) then the last 20% of the battery trickle charges (this also takes another 1-3 hours). I think what's happening here is that the phone itself only reports the first 80% of the actual battery capacity because that's the part that charges quickly, and anything over what the phone reports as "100%" is the last 20% of the actual battery capacity trickle charging.
As for any harm this could bring to the battery, batteries like the one in the LG G2 last longer if you avoid deep discharges (e.g. charging to 100% from 50% at the end of the day versus charging to 100% from 0% after every two days), but it might not even matter since LG Chem's higher end batteries tend to be rated for at least 800 full charge cycles (last year's average smartphones were rated for ~500), which covers over two years of very decent battery performance even if you were to charge from 0 to 100+% battery every day. Even if you use up all these charge cycles, you're still going to be left with ~70-80% battery capacity of the phone you initially bought.
A side note from all this is that any anecdotes of long battery life (where the initial battery percentage reported was 100%) is generally unreliable because it's not conveniently possible to know how much over "100%" the phone's battery has been trickle charged.
My battery life is ridiculously good on this phone anyways...

It's true, 100-99% yields insane use time, but only if you use an app like Battery Monitor Widget to let you know when the battery has stopped accepting power (+0 mA, voltage ~ 4370 mV). It is also true though that this reduces overall battery health a little (it might become noticeable if you do this all the time).
And btw, charging overnight is a very bad idea.

I keep reading that you should try and just charge your phone to 80% to help keep the battery healthy, as going to 100% can shotren the life span of the battery.
How ciritcal is this?
I know letting your phone run down to 0% is bad as it takes a fully clylce then to get back too 100% and this is not good for the battery long ter, but i must confess i usually let my battery get to around 50/60% ish then charge back up to 100%
I've always charged my phones fully and never noticed any issues. Maybe if you plan on keeping a device for 10 years, but for the usual lifetime of a phone it's just fine. My OP7 is 2 and a half years old now and still has 86% battery health. I've seen others in Telegram groups say that they never charge to 100% and when they post their battery health it's not much different from mine, sometimes even less.
I think modern batteries are fine being fully charged ... otherwise the OEMs or battery manufacturers would limit them to 80 or 90% by default.

I like the adaptive charging, set up your bedtime and alarm for getting up (or turning over) After bedtime, phone gets trickle charged to achieve 100% at morning alarm. No excess heat etc. Phone then lasts me all day till bedtime when put on airplane mode, switch off Wi-Fi, & sleep. Works for me.
I'm showing 106%
I always charge to full, using adapting charging over night. Charging slowly and keeping temperature down is more important than keeping it to 80% from my understanding.
I just lay my phone on a slow charge Qi pad every night and when I get up it is at 100%. Nexus 6, Pixel 3, now Pixel 6. Perhaps my battery life went down a bit on my Pixel 3 after 3 years, but not enough to notice. I think 100% charge (at least slow charging) is safe for 3 to 5 years of battery life.
Li's like frequent midrange power cycling; it can extend the lifespan hundreds even thousands more full charge cycles.
Voltage and temperature are the Li's biggest stress factors. Low or high temperature charging can cause Li plating.
The higher the cell voltage, the faster it degrades.
The same is true with temperature.
Personally I just replace them every year or so as a failed Li can severely damage a phone. They tend to swell during a failure which can easily damage the display.
My Samsung S10+ is 27 months old now. I'm charging it to 80% mainly daily. Had maybe max 20 full charges and only once or twice to zero. I'm at 86% battery health (according to 146 sessions). Was 92% six months after buying brand new.
I think it helps. Also since the battery is OK (4100mah), dont need that extra 20%.
EDIT: 15W Samsung "fast" charging. As fast as that is ...

A Li is considered degraded when it reaches 80% of it's initial capacity. This signals the end of its useful service life.
Degraded Li's are more likely to fail.
Trust me it's better to replace it before it fails...
I think Better Battery Stats made that reco back in the day.
Charge to 80% and plug in at 10%.
Not so sure that really matters anymore though.
Both my 2 XL and Pixel 5 were plugged in before bed, unplugged when I got up, plugged back in when I hit 10-15% or when I went to bed.
If you plan on keeping your device for a long time (like 3-4 years) doing the unplug at 80% and plug in at 10% might make a diff.

10% is too low. It causes a lot of stress on the battery as it drops below 20% to charge from that starting point or lower.
Worse there's little usable energy after 20% because of the lower voltage. The phone uses the same wattage which is determined by V×A=W, so as the voltage drops it needs more milliamperes to make the same wattage. The discharge rate increases as the cell voltage drops.
A better low cut off is 30-40% or even higher and a high cutoff of 80% although 62% is optimum.
The Li likes frequent midrange power cycling. Charging beyond those parameters is for your convenience at the cost of battery lifespan.
Batteries are cheap and most are easy to replace... so I don't sweat it.
I expect a service life of 1-2 years on a heavily used N10+ battery.
However charging in the 40-72% range yields the most rapid fast charge in the shortest time so it makes sense to use this whenever convenient.
Well, I know things have been updated within Googles code itself.
"Adaptive Charging" / "Adatptive Connectivity" additions.
This was a real big problem for me with my HTC 10, (2016)
Battery degradation threads starting popping up.
I installed Accubattery after 1.5/2 years of owning the device and the battery was degraded to about 77% capacity at that time, IIRC. I was charging to 100% at that time, also.
So, I began charging stricly to 80%.
Compared to my HTC One M8 that to this day still has 90% capacity, and I used that device from the day Verizon released (3/2014) it until the day Verizon released the HTC 10 (5/2016).
I somehow managed to use the HTC 10 up until I bought the Pixel 5 on release day (10/2020).
I was charging the HTC 10 like 3 times a day just get through, and even went back to the HTC One M8 at one point because I had enough, but was waiting for the P5 to drop.
So to answer the question, I do believe it helps.
I do think that Adaptive charging/connectivity help, as well.
I take the view that if I don't need all the capacity on a particular day I charge no higher than 70%, which lands me around 30% end of day. Otherwise I'll guestimate what I need. Off to take some photo's tonight, so will probably charge it to 90% or so.
If you like fiddling around you can use something like Tasker to switch a smart plug that your charger's plugged into on and off at what you consider appropriate battery levels. Makes it all painless once set up. Or you can buy some extra hardware too. I use this in my car to limit the phone's max charge and temperature as, for me, I think most and fastest damage is done in a hot car float charging the phone at 100%.... https://chargie.org/ Not cheap but ok in my mind to hopefully extend the service life of the phone's battery. Less than the cost and hassle of replacing a battery anyway! (I'm not associated with Chargie other than as a customer)
OK, admittedly off-topic, but, this kind of sounds like a variation of the guidance I use for charging my electric car. Don't charge it unless it drops below 80% (so don't keep topping it up), but don't let it go below 20% regularly either. I mostly plug it in at around 60% and let it fully charge. Given the cost of a replacement battery would be more than the total value of the car, I hope this gives me 10 year of life.

EV metering is set up differently. What shows as 100% is likely a conservative 80% charge. Research for that variant.
A 35-40% low cut off is probably better as going lower generates more heat causing needless stress... unless you need that capacity.
Just downloaded the accubattery app and then fully charged but it’s estimating 6,401mah. Must be wrong and needs to calibrate over a few days.
I’ve never had any problems charging to 100% before so I’m not stopping now. I’ll be deleting this app if it keeps warning me like it has done.

I used to cycle from full to empty on my Pixel 2 before recharging, at about 3 years the battery couldnt last until lunch anymore. This meant more cycling, and I could fully discharge/recharge it 3 or 4 times a day. Within 6 months the battery only lasted 5 minutes, it was stuffed. Phone always hot and needed to stay on a charger 24/7, would turn off if I opened the camera without usb power connected.
Held out about 6 months on a permanent usb battery bank, was such a slog to wait until the Pixel 6 was released.
