Hi guys! I was wondering if it's okay to charge my phone for 8 hours like overcharging it?

[#1]

Because my friend told me that it is good for my phone's battery because recently, it is starting to act up. Like I just finished charging it then by an hour without using it, it drops from 100% to 95%. Any suggestions to prolong my battery's life? 🙂 Thank you in advance!

With this operating system this does not work as the handset will stop charging once it reaches 100% and will not start again till it drops to the low 90's. This is to prevent over charging which could impact the life of the battery.

Yes this normal for this model as well.

I think it will not have any effect because li-po or li-ion batteries don't have the old memory effect.
