Question: Do I need to completely empty the battery before charging it, and does doing this prevent the so-called "memory effect"?
Answer: You don't need to empty the battery before charging it. Lithium-based batteries, like those used in iPod, have none of the memory effects seen in nickel-based rechargeable batteries.

What will happen to the mobile if you put it in charger to much?
Good Mobile phones have built in overcharging protection built in. when battery reaches a maximum charging level, the current flowing through it reduces. once charging current flow reduces below a threshold level, a circuit completely cuts it, separating the charger from the mobile phone. Also, with current batteries, there is no longer the problem of having to run your battery down completely before charging. Previously, doing this would cause the available charge to shrink.
Can charging a cell phone before it has run flat be detrimental to the battery?
No, not at all. Letting the battery run flat can sometimes even increase battery life.AnswerThis was an actual problem with early rechargeable batteries because over charging batteries would dramatically reduce their life span. However, most chargers now have sensors that detect that available charge and will shut themselves off before they reach that point.However, some companies do suggest that you periodically (once a month or so) allow the battery to drain completely before recharging it as a way of resetting it.
