Hello,
well i use my hd2 with wp7 for my daily usage and at the end of the day it has to be charged.
When i charge my phone over the night and it is fully charged and i dont disconnect it from the charger (coz i sleep) does this damage my phone/ my battery?
Regards.
well it moves to something called trickle charge, in theory it could slowly start to bugger it up, in practice you'll be fine, this is true unless you are charging it in MAGLDR or the bootloader, if so be careful, its unclear if the battery controller has any control over whats going on, ie it might not shut off.
also, a top tip for you, do a restart before you charge it at night, an again in the morning, for some odd reason it doesnt always fully charge.

hi
what the recommended method to charge the new battery?
1)charge few hrs till full and drain till 0% and charge again?
2)charge >10hrs?
I used to have N6288, it will auto stop charging when full.
Therefore i tend to charge my hp before i sleep and wake up in the morning to off the charger. So which is like charging for >10hrs.
Since i do not own htc before, so i'm not sure about how they charge.
lets say if battery full till 100%, will it auto stop charging?
i only afraid with my charging pattern (charging while sleeping) will make htc batt spoilt.
any advices?
thx alot

Of course it will stop. Every battery will stop charging when it will be full otherwise it would burn or explode.

i see..thx
so how long u charge the 1st time?
Before when I bough Tytn II, I charge it over 10 hours and that works well (3~4 days). Recently I bought HTC Touch Cruise09 and I only charge it for 3~5 hours (because the LED turns its color and I just remove the charger). I will see how this battery works.
How to charge a new battery... the solution. ;-)
Hi,
As erzketis says, you have an internal tools wihc switch of your charge.
I'm an electronical technician...
As the charger is a 1Aand the battery is a 1.1 Ah.
In two hour maximum it should be OK.
For me, I went to the sport and 3 hours after, it was OK.
What we usually forget to says is 2 things:
- After the first charge try to use at maximum your battery, let put it close himself (memory effect even if we says taht Lithium has a minus effct, it's a bull****). Try to reperform the same thing 5 times before going on the second tab...
- Avoid to charge you phone when it's not necessary (desactive auto charge when connected on USB). I'll says, wait till 10~0% to charge it. I know it's not prctical, but you'll have a better battery life.
I hope it will help you.
OK, first I admit, the battery is a POS. I usually have enough battery life to make it through a full day, but usually it will die in the evening before I go to bed and put it on charge.
Recently I got a message, "Charging current is not enough for device power consumption. Please connect your AC adapter." Strange thing, though, it WAS connected to my AC charger. I get the same message with both of my chargers.
Battery will not charge, but has just enough power to keep the phone running as long as there is charge already in the battery. So the battery is almost dead, I put it on the charger all night long, get up in the morning and take it off, and then it beeps extra low battery! and then dies shortly after.
The only way I can get it to work is to leave the phone powered off for a long period of time and charge it then. Doesn't always work though. works if I take out the battery and charge it all by itself on a USB phone battery charger.
Sounds like the problem is somewhere in the phone, not with the chargers. Why would both of them do the same thing?
Please help.
does it do the same thing when plugged in and charging via USB??
could be a bad battery...
from old phones i had previous to my magic it sometimes helped to clean the contacts on the battery and charging pins on the phone..
I'll check that...
BTW, if I am plugged into an AC adapter, is it supposed to stay on even if I remove the battery?
NOPE! same message. Been charging all day now and only shows just over half charge on the battery. Most of this is from the hour or so that I had the battery out and charging on its own.
I dont know what caused this to happen, because i havent flashed anything new on my phone or made any changes for like a week now, but today when i got home from school and plugged in my phone, a few seconds later i get the messaged telling me that it is fully charged, even though the battery on the status bar says it is at 20%. i tried wiping the battery stats in cwm but it didnt fix it.
Possibly dirty usb port/connector. Otherwise, turn the phone off to charge it. If it still doesn't charge right, it could be that the battery went bad.
oh lol i cant believe i didnt realize this. i just got a new keyboard and i had my phone charger plugged into the usb port that is on the back of they keyboard, i shouldve known it cant charge off of that i was being stupid hah. plugged it into the computer and it works fine.

The phone will say it is charged when you plug it into a USB port with too low of a current rating.
I do not know what the cutoff threshold is, however I have a variety of USB ports and adapters that I charge my phone off of and some of them work great, but a couple of them have extremely low current ratings and the phone just says "charged" because it is not seeing enough power go into the battery.
This might be considered a bug, if there was a way for the hardware / charging drivers to measure the strength of the USB port the phone is attached to instead of solely looking at the current flowing into the battery.
Hrm. Weird that it would report charged when it doesn't get enough current to properly charge.
On a related note - I would also recommend doing a deep drain / charge cycle about once per month, to calibrate the battery charge sensor.
- Charge your phone to 100%.
- Then discharge it down to 0%.
- Then charge it back up to 100% via the OS.
- Turn the phone off, and keep it plugged in to the charger. A green battery icon will appear, and indicate when the battery is fully charged to 100%.
- Reboot the phone into recovery, and wipe battery stats.
Doing this about once per month for any Li-Ion battery will help calibrate the battery charge sensors on the device, giving you more accurate battery charge stats.
Ok so my phone will not charge over 60%. Anyone else having a problem? Going to go back to AT&T and swap batteries to see if it changes anything.
Is there a way to clear the battery memory? I have tried to run it all the way down, then back up but it hasnt changed anything.
Mine wont turn on unless its above 5%, even if plugged in to the wall. I thought it was a brick, doesnt look like it charges well while powered on.
Mine wouldn't charge past 50% most of yesterday. I plugged it in to the wall for a few hours and left it alone. I returned and it had started charging. It also charges very slowly for me over USB.

Dont use the phone while its charging.. it will take forever.
I wonder if the charger can't supply enough juice to the battery.
It does have the biggest battery of any current cell phone.
Has anyone with these issues actually charged the phone while it was off?
I fully charged the phone powered off as soon as I opened the package and I havent had a problem charging at all..
I wonder if anyone knows what apps are active and syncing in the background when the screen is blank? On my previous myTouch 4G (not-so dearly departed), I would start the day with a fully charged battery. For an experiment, I did not use the phone all day until 5pm. When I unlocked it at 5, I had 30% charge left. So where did it go?
I had power saving on, and all social network updates turned off.
After my phone had been on the charger all night I pulled it off the charger and noticed my battery immediately went to 98% after I unplugged it. What seemed to correct this for me was I had to turn the phone off let it fully charge then for safe measures I unplugged it and plugged it back in again till it said 100% again. After doing this my phone now fully charges and stays at 100% after I pull it off the charger.
Just thought I'd share...

The reason for this is for battery health. The phone will actually slowly leech a charge down while plugged in once it hits 100% and then recharge. The reason for this is because it's bad to leave a phone at 100% all the time. It's normal for that to happen with phones. Some phones are more accurate with displaying the proper percentage than others.
Thats odd. My phone charged to 100% yesterday and after about 30-40 minutes of rarely any usage it was still at 100
yeah it happens from time to time. But its easy to remedy.
