I have recently bought a new T230. The first time I charged it when the battery was almost over to around 95%. The next time I drained it till the message LOW BATTERY came and recharged it to full. Both these times I dint switch off the phone but did the recharging in stanby only. But many say we have to do the first 4 rechargings in off only? So have i damaged the battery or somethin.

Plz can anyone tell me what is the optimized method for recharging my battery. Should i start recharging when the message comes or even after that until the phone itself gets switched off? And also in standby mode or off mode? Plz help me and it is urgent.

Thanx in advance

U can charge it any time u want. The battery will be after time to time better. Never discharge it. Put the cgarger first in the connector and after it to the fone.

you should fully drain/recharge at least 3x to achieve the batt's full power.

then when you've done this, you can recharge the batt even if its not yet empty

I will tell you just follow the manual. It says charge it fully before using. After that just no specific pattern. This is li-ion so no problem. Charge whenever you want. And yes have fun with ur new phone

When I got my first SE T65, i started charging it randomly. Never had a single problem. Li-Polymer batteries rock.

I almost never start charging my battery of T68i until the phone switches off. Maybe 2-3 times during the last 2 years I started to charge the battery when red LED was still blinking.

The battery is still great, acts like new.
