tips to phone charging

i made this post because people might be wondering about how to charge their phones.
(i say these things from experience so if different for anyone then let me know)
make it a habit not to charger until its at least 15% or less. i always charged my g1 and left it plugged in even at 100 and after weeks the battery life went to hell. i went through 3 batteries that way.
Also try not to use the phone while its charging. i cant really explain what the hell causes that but i know from experience of two other phones that the phone overheats and messes up the battery. so that means avoid over-night charging. i charge mine either before i go to sleep of first thing when i wake up.
also when ur charging ur phone, DO NOT put it under anything, like between a pillow the bed. ur phone will overheat like to the point of too hot to touch. also from experience.
Thanks man,that why my old battery started die'n so fast

I normally do this to calibrate battery:
1. Charge to 100 % with phone on
2. Unplug and turn off
3. Charge to 100% when off (i normally leave it for 10-15 minutes)
4. Then unplug, turn it on, then after fully booted turn it back off
5. put it back on charger till it fully charges again
6. boot into recovery and wipe battery stats
now use your phone as normally and give it 3-4 full charge cycles till the battery is properly calibrated.
Battery calibration is a app on the market. Check it out! It saves you from having to go into recovery and wiping battery stats

i follow all of this and i usually get around 20 hours of battery life. and ive only calibrated my battery once.

Strange battery event after complete drain

Last night I did something that may have been stupid. After my phone shut down on low battery, I restarted it twice following successive shutdowns. I did this to ensure the battery was completely drained because battery life has been noticeably shorter lately. After plugging into the charger, the phone did not begin charging and would not power on. I had to do a battery pull to get things working again. Is this a normal side effect of my ignorant action in draining the battery?
Unrooted, stock other than a few mainstream apps.

Yes this can be considered normal. There has to be enough battery for the phone to switch into charging mode and it appears you didn't have enough

Battery?

I unplug my phone from charger, instantly dies. Plug it back in, works perfectly fine and such but says charging at 0% and won't change. Is this Battery or software problem? Please help

Your phone has no battery. Let it fully charge.

once it is fully charged, calibrate the battery. what rom are you on?
No need for calibration. Im pretty sure its just no batteries and he forgot about it and thought he had juice left over. and its not a problem with any rom. or thats what i think ^^;

I have the exact same problem with my Nexus S4g, plus it will not charge and continues to stay at 0% with battery status being FULL.

Inaccurate battery reading

Will clearing my battery stats stop this? Once at 100%, my battery will stay there then rapidly drop to 80 or so, then once at 15% will sharply drop down to 1%.
Let it deplete until it shuts down and then connect the charger and don't turn it on just let it charge
