Samsung SCH-A670
Battery LIfe
Ok so recently I've been using my phone while charging and last night into today i realized that after giving my phone a full charge it dies down very quickly in about a couple of hours. Now I'm asking myself what's up with this? It is now charging for like the 3rd time today when i should be getting like 4 days out of one charge? Do you think i killed the cells by playing with my phone while charging? I certainly dont' think that i didn't overcharge it because I'm good with that since i work at Verizon.
...
the same thing has been happening to me, it only started within the last couple of weeks. what's going on?

Well, actually the problem was brought on by me. When i had my phone on the charger, I would still be using it a lot and i would leave it on. I would also talk on my phone, send text messages, and use Get It Now. This is a very bad thing to do. NEVER LEAVE YOUR PHONE ON WHILE ITS CHARGING. If Verizon Salesreps havent' already told you, it's very bad for the cells in the battery. Not only will it cause them to heat up faster i think but itll also cause them to burn out faster which in essence causes them to die out. This will eventually lead to your having to buy another new battery which is at least i think $40 for the standard or something like that. I dont have the problem anymore because i always shutmy phone off when charging it.
