Samsung galaxy s2 display killing battery?
Dark backgrounds so better than bright/light colored ones do. Turning off Auto Brightness helps as well. Turning down the time out for the screen dimming and turning off will help as well. But whatever you do, the screen will be taking a toll on the battery if you are USING the phone, vs doing things that don't need the screen on. You may also have to change screen settings and time outs for APPs that keep the screen on longer in their own settings. So check those as well. Especially things like album art displays, games and navigation /mapping type apps.
Samsung galaxy s5 losing battery fast, help?
i just got a galaxy s5 today and its losing battery at a rate of 5% every 20 mins. not even on the whole time. i thought it was losing battery fast so i waited until i charged it. the first 5 % i let drain and ans soon as it hit 95 i times it. i surfed through various apps. the app store etc half the time. the other half it was locked and screen was off. i switched back and forth on and off. i didnt open any app extremely stenuous. the battery isnt getting noticeably hot either. they advertise the battery for 24 hours of talk time but at this rate with mild activity it wont even last 7 hours. is there something wrong with my battery?
How is the battery life of Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus?
I used iPhone 7 Plus and yes, it got great battery life. I have been using S8+ and yes, I'm not so happy with the battery life. I charge overnight and still charge during work everyday. I have no complaints though. I use it as a mini computer. The gorgeous display won't light up by itself!I have wireless fast chargers at home and work. I use it as a cool way to park my phone while refueling at the same time.For a phone this beautiful and powerful, it is a good idea to invest on a wireless fast charger.
AT&TSamsung Flight 2 keeps saying "Charging paused. Battery temperature too high or too low". What do I do??!?
It's *probably* the battery (you should get a new one), but it might be the charger or the phone itself. I would go to AT&T and tell them what's happening and see what they suggest; if they're clueless try getting a new battery first - if the problem keeps happening you can at least return the battery and get a refund, and then (maybe) try a new charger instead.
Should I worry about overcharging my galaxy s3?
When your phone is connected to the charger, it will not go into be like a continuous charge back and forth from 100% to 99%, it is charged at the same time working on the charger, not the battery. So when your battery is full charging system is triggered and phone use it as a main power source, you can test it (take battery off and plug your charger to the wall outlet and you see your phone is working just from a charger) Do not worry just leave it on overnight.

Can I leave my Samsung Galaxy Note 5 charging overnight without harming my phone?
Yes, you can. The myth about overcharging your phone is a common one. The amount of charge going into your device shouldn't be an issue as most are smart enough to stop taking a charge once full, just topping up as needed to stay at 100 per cent. The truth is that, your phone is smarter than you think. Once it's fully juiced up, it knows to stop charging. That means the battery isn't even in use at all.However, that doesn't mean you should be charging your phone all night, every night. You wouldn't fill a cup with water if it was already full, would you? Your battery life will last longer if you keep your phone charged between 40% and 80%.
How long should I charge a Samsung Galaxy A3 for the first time?
Good question. This is a subject which is widely misunderstood and unclear. Nowadays, Android smartphones & tablets are configured for power intake in a manner which prevents damage from “overcharging.” The amount of power coming into your device is determined not by the charger itself, but by your device's firmware, which acts as a governor. Code written in your device's kernel sets a regulatory limit to the amount of voltage & current coming into your device. Let's say your Galaxy A3 is configured for charging at 5VDC and 1700mAh (milliamps/hour). So, even if your charger is rated at 5.3VDC and 2100mAh, your device's kernel will not permit an excess of 5VDC and 1700mAh. Once your device becomes fully charged and firmware determines that your battery is 100% charged, firmware will allow just enough power into your device to keep the battery at 100%, but will not permit “overcharging,” which over time could damage your battery and/or device. You may leave your charger connected for as long as you like, whether your device is on or off, without any fear that you are overcharging it.So, back to your original question, how long should you charge your Galaxy A3 for the first time, the answer is simply to charge the device until your battery reaches 100%. Once fully charged, you may disconnect the charger or leave it connected. You will not harm your device leaving it connected. On a new device, to properly calibrate the battery, it is good to charge your device to 100% and, once the charger is disconnected, allow the battery to fully discharge (through normal use of your device) to a level below 10% before reconnecting your charger. But, to again reiterate, because of parameters preset within your device's firmware, have no fear of charging your device too long.
Samsung Galaxy S2: Voltage too high, charging paused?
1. The to high voltage issue usually caused by hard multitasking u did (like too much apps running, downloading large file, multi tab browsing, etc which forced CPU to do some extra job s) So try not to use ur phone while it's charging or at least just run one single app(obviously not HD game) that would be fine then. 2. I guess that error message is a system error caused by high voltage charging. But it's not a hardware issue in my opinion. U can do a factory reset usually solve ur problem. But keep in mind that factory reset will delete all if ur phone data (messages, contacts, email, call logs,etc), installed apps (downloaded apps, not those system pre-installed apps) If u wanna do a factory reset, try to backup ur contacts, emails(open setting, account and sync, if u haven't had any google account, ad d one, then click in that account, check all options, it'll sync ur contacts, email, and calendar) or go to contacts, option/left softkey, import/export, choose export to SD card (do the otherwise to restore) To backup ur messages, download and install SMS backup and restore app, open it, choose backup.(choose restore to restore ur messages)
Why does the battery in my Samsung Galaxy S6 die so quickly? After 8 months I've gone through 5 chargers; they eventually stop working. Why is this?
Simply, there are four factors which shortens any lithium ion battery :HeatCharge cyclesAmount of juice filled per chargePower hungry appsEverything has its expiry date, including your own battery. Although, in that case, phone battery is limited to its charge cycle, and it ranges from 300 to 700. The thing is that, the more closer you are on the expiry use, the less battery capacity it is. Although it is gradually upgraded within each generation, with S7 having 80percent of its total capacity after a year of regular charge cycle and 95percent for S8.On the other hand, a very high temperature on batteries wouldn’t be healthy for it. When the battery is heated beyond its recommended temperature frequently, the total capacity of the battery reduce.Next, you might’ve downloaded lots of power hungry apps and kept it running on the background, obviously it would both increase the heat and reduce the battery life, 2 in 1.Last but not least, emptying your battery 0 percent and charging it to 100percent all over and over is definitely not healthy for the battery as it would pretty much stress the battery a lot of times. Charge your battery when it hits 40/30 percent and top it to 80/90 and your battery would degrade way slower.To answer your question, I’ve suspected that you have :Frequently emptying and filling fully the battery over and over againUsed fast charging in all ocassions, generating lots of heatKeeping it in a high temperature environment in a very long timeToo much charging cyclesDownloading power hungry apps.Fix :Delete unecessary power hungry apps, or factory reset with back-upUse fast charging certain times only, don’t use it when you don’t need it, such as overnight chargeHave the 30–80 battery charge cycle, not 0–100If the problem still persist, you can change the battery by giving it to samsung, as there are chances that your battery have semi-inflated.
