Best Answer

For most devices, yes. There is an issue called overcharge where power is being stored with nowhere to go. Keeping your phone plugged in too long can damage the internal parts of the battery, and eventually leads to less battery life and internal memory problems. One way to prevent this is to cycle the battery several times: unplug it, run it down to where it's dead or almost there, charge all the way (but not overcharge), run it down again, and charge one more time. However, each battery has a certain amount of cycles before the battery runs out quickly no matter how good you are to it.

Prescrition: cycle your phone several times as described. If battery life does not improve, invest in new battery unless shortened battery life is still satisfactory...

Are house phone safer then cell phones?

Well it all depends, if your calling 911 you have to be specific on were you are because they can't track your cell phone like they can on a house phone. A cell phone is good to have if your not home and your out and about doing things. if you ever got hurt and sick it is good to have a cell phone on you so you could get ahold of a parent or a friend.EDIT: Cell phones CAN be tracked ! The system knows where you are while your mobile is switched on - because it communicates with the handset. The mobile network needs to know where the phone is - in order to route calls to it ! Every mobile phone can be traced to a roughly 3 metre square location - by means of triangulation from the three nearest network masts.

Wise Reasons to Purchase a Cell Holder?

Nowadays, communication via cell phone is a common occurrence. Consequently, many people have a budget that provides for the use and upkeep of a cell phone or two. A cell holder is a useful item that may help a cell phone owner to save money. First, there are a variety of ways that a person can lose his or her cell phone. For example, a cell phone can slip out of a purse onto the floor of a car or fall out of someone's coat pocket onto the street. Not surprisingly, it can be expensive to replace a lost cell phone. However, a phone that is in a cell holder has an extra element of security. Some cell holders attach to purses or hook onto pants. In other words, when a phone is housed in a cell holder it is less likely to be lost. In addition, a person in the habit of putting his or her phone in a cell holder can stay aware of the phone's whereabouts. A damaged cell phone can also be an unwanted expense to its owner. Once again, a cell holder protects a cell phone and keeps it in place. Unfortunately, a loose cell phone that is sliding around inside a purse or bouncing around in someone's coat pocket is liable to experience damage. Furthermore, if a phone is loose in a pocket or purse it stands the chance of falling to the ground. If a phone crashes to the ground, its structure or battery may be hurt. A cell holder is a purchase that can allow a cell phone owner extra peace of mind. Finally, a loose cell phone that is sitting in the side pocket of a purse or on a table is an enticing target for thieves. However, a phone that is resting securely inside a cell holder has an additional element of protection. Chances are, a thief would think twice about trying to steal a phone that is attached to someone's belt or firmly secured to a handbag. In short, purchasing a cell holder may help an owner to avoid the significant costs of replacing his or her cell phone.
