Samsung Galaxy S2
Clannad_92:
to the members who already own the phone, do you all experienced crash?
or need to disconnect the power?
honestly, ive experience it once a while...need to disconnect batteries...
Arc-sama:
I only have mine connected to the charger when the batteries needs charging ... other than that I don't connected it to the charger ... from what I have been told it shortens the battery life. I usually charge it when it gives me the warning that the battery power is low ... or if it less than 50% and I know I'm gonna be using it alot the next day ... I'll plug it in.
Usually, if something is not working right shutting the phone totally down & turning it back on works at fixing any issues ... at lease for me.
My Droid is a Samsung Exhibit. I charge it about every 3 to 3 days.

sounds scary...well, from now on will connect to charger if needed
kitamesume:
leaving the charger attached doesn't shorten battery lifespan, well thats the case to newer phones with smart power management.
the phones with that feature automatically disables the charging and switches the power from the battery to the charger to keep itself powered, making the battery stand on idle and stay full. you could even disconnect the battery and the phone will still work.

No, when you connect the charger it will start charging. It would be plain stupid design to have a phone that doesn't charge when you plug it in.
Charging on a partial discharge is bad for the battery, yes - you should try to always charge after a complete discharge or very low charge in order to preserve your battery's life. Once your phone is done charging, though, you don't have to disconnect the charger right away, as it will do what kitamesume described only in this case - put the battery on idle and run on AC power (even then, some phones simply internally disconnect from the charger and run on the battery - either case is fine). Disconnecting and reconnecting the charger normally causes the phone to attempt to charge again.
If this is what you meant, you should probably clarify that.
