Battery charge for the first time

Should the phone be off the first time I charge and how will I know its fully charged?

You will know its fully charged when the lightening flash turns to a plug, or, if you have it displaying % of charge, when it reads 100%.
BTW, Apple says you should charge it for 4 hours before first use. I doubt that anyone has actually done this!

  • Satellites L650D: how long do i leave it on charge for the first time?

    just recently bought this computer Toshiba Satellite series L650D and was wondering how long do i leave it on charge for the first time on power????
    Please help

    Hello
    If the battery is fully charged, the battery LED will switch the color. Depending on your notebook it will switch from orange to white for example. After this the battery is fully charged.
    The charging time is also depending on the battery, AC/DC adaptor and if the notebook is truned on or off. So nobody can exactly say how long it takes but the battery LED will it show you. :)

    For proper maintenance of a lithium-based battery, it’s important to keep the electrons in it moving occasionally. Be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • How long is the first charge for the first time?

    Hello everyone! I've just got the newest iPod Touch and I was wondering for how long does it need to be charged for the first time.
    Thank you for your help and best wishes for these holidays.

    Just charge it until it is fully charged. Not reason or requirement to charge more.

    It is best to just make sure it is fully charged. There is no problem charging it and using it at the same time too.

    To resume use of your device as quickly as possible, turn it off, move it to a cooler environment, and allow it to cool down.

    Hi. Sure, you can use your iPhone when charging (but not always) . Just release your battery under 10% and recharge to 100% once a month, it can be helpful for battery life.
    That is actually not considered best practice. Lithium ion batteries should be kept topped up when possible. That was previously recommended to calibrate the battery sensor. It never had any effect on the overall life of the battery.

  • How to charge for the first time?

    I bought myself a new iPhone and this was from the store, not from someone else, so how should I charge it for the first time? Should I wait when iPhone loads out till blank screen and the charge it to 100%?
    How do you charge your iPhone by the way, sometimes I think that I should not let it load out till the blank screen, because when I put it on charge it sometimes took at least three times to begin charging - instead it loaded me the apple logo, waited for a second and then it loaded itself out, then I needed to push the sleep/wake button to turn it on and again it only showed me the apple logo for a second and loaded the iPhone out.
    Do you start to charge your iPhone when it gives you the alert that 20% or 10% are remaining?

    The new batteries don't need as much care as the old generations. Their lifetime is supposed to be mostly independent of how often and at what charge levels you discharge them. So feel free to charge as you wish.
    If it starts showing inaccurate battery levels, calibrate it by doing a full discharge/recharge cycle.

  • Re: Charging for the first time - I have not connected yet to my Itunes, so can I just go ahead and plug it into an outlet and charge?

    Can I charge my new Ipad for first time but just connecting it to a wall outlet, even though I have not yet registered it on my ITunes account?  If so, how long will it take for a complete charge?
    Thanks

    Yes but it's not necessary to fully charge it the first time.

  • Can i transfer songs to my nano while it charges for the first time?

    I just got a nano today for christmas and i have just installed iTunes and my nano is currently charging in it's dock and has a sign flashing on it saying do not disconnect. But i don't know wheather it is wise to start trying to load songs into the nano just now when it is still charging for the first ever time!? Is it ok to do this?

    All I can say is give it a try if you want - but it's certain not the recommended way of handling it. It only takes a few hours to charge the Nano the first time - why not do that and then transfer the songs?

  • Battery charging for the 1st time

    Hi All,
    I have bought a new nokia E51 & wanted to know whether is it necessary for the 1st time to charge the battery for 8-10 hours continuously. So, that the battery could get a long life.

    Well have a look at this > http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm
    It says nothing about the first charge but I advise you just charge it untill it is full and unplug the charger
    and for the rest of the battery's life Here's what they have to say:
    Avoid frequent full discharges because this puts additional strain on the battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better for lithium-ion than one deep one. Recharging a partially charged lithium-ion does not cause harm because there is no memory. (In this respect, lithium-ion differs from nickel-based batteries.) Short battery life in a laptop is mainly cause by heat rather than charge / discharge patterns.
    Batteries with fuel gauge (laptops) should be calibrated by applying a deliberate full discharge once every 30 charges. Running the pack down in the equipment does this. If ignored, the fuel gauge will become increasingly less accurate and in some cases cut off the device prematurely. 
    Keep the lithium-ion battery cool. Avoid a hot car. For prolonged storage, keep the battery at a 40% charge level. 
    Consider removing the battery from a laptop when running on fixed power. (Some laptop manufacturers are concerned about dust and moisture accumulating inside the battery casing.)
    Avoid purchasing spare lithium-ion batteries for later use. Observe manufacturing dates. Do not buy old stock, even if sold at clearance prices. 
    If you have a spare lithium-ion battery, use one to the fullest and keep the other cool by placing it in the refrigerator. Do not freeze the battery. For best results, store the battery at 40% state-of-charge. 
    Show your appreciation. Hit that kudos button real hard

  • Image on screen while charging for the first time

    We received 2 phones today and one has black screen while charging and the other has a bright green image that says downloading and Do not  turn off Target!!!  Is something wrong??

  • How do i know when my zen creative is fully charged (for the first time since openi

    So I just got a Zen Creative, and I was wondering how I know when it is fully charged, will it show up on the screen and say its fully charged or is it a certain amount of time or just pay attention to the battery gauge in the top left courner? please help me

    My answer was based upon the assumption this is a flash-based Zen 2/4/8/6/32GB unit. That is the current player going by the unqualified "Zen" name (i.e. as opposed to "Zen Micro", "Zen Vision:M", etc.)
    If the OP is referring to a different player under the "Zen" brand (which consists of playes with widely differing technologies, features and "well known" issues) your mileage may vary.
