about overcharging your Android

Hi friends!!!!!!!! I am back again with some information......
Android users can be split into two broad categories. There are those who handle their device with great care and consideration, and there are those who simply don’t care about the well-being of their Android buddy.

If you’re in the first category, chances are you’re already familiar with the long-standing dispute over the effects of overcharging an Android device.
Most Android “control freaks”carefully track when the battery is full and immediately disconnect the device from the charger. The reason for this is the general conception that overcharging your Android has the potential to do irreparable damage to your device.
This post aims to shed some light on this subject, as there are many misconceptions about the way that modern electronics handle constant charging.
Overcharging is NOT a Big Threat
Since most smartphone batteries are Lithium Ion, we are just going to come out and say that constant charging won’t hurt your device much. Lithium-Ion batteries are designed to work with frequent top-up charges. Even more, all batteries of this type have a circuit that monitors the voltage in a way that prevents over-charging and stressing the battery.
As of now, the vast majority of smartphones know when their battery is full and stop charging. Depending on their manufacturer, if left in a charging state they are programmed to start recharging once the battery drops below 80-90%.
Most smartphone batteries are designed to function at full capacity for around 1500-2000 charge cycles before noticeable performance reduction occurs. Depending on your battery capacity, the optimal performance will be around a couple of years.
Although the effects are minimal, if you leave your cellphone constantly connected to its charger, it will hurt the battery performance in the long term, but just by a little bit. Since batteries are getting a lot cheaper, it’s not worth it to “police” your Android charging habits.
The Real Enemy
By far, the biggest damage to your battery is done by full discharges. Letting your phone completely dry out of power will put additional stress on your battery, causing it to lose efficiency much more quickly. Studies show that 10 partial discharges with frequent recharges are healthier for your device than 1 full discharge.
Another major factor for decreased battery life is temperature. A hot environment will help with the loss of capacity over time.
If you need to store multiple batteries for a long period, the best way to do it is in a cool room. Since battery manufacturers ship their product at about 40% charge level, it’s a good idea and you can do the same when storing a battery for a prolonged period. Storing the battery at 100%, will have catastrophic effects on its performance in the long term.
