The phone itself will not be damaged. Once the charge is completed it will stop charging the phone. It can damage the battery though. If your phone is only half way down on the battery and you plug it in, the phone retains that memory. Once in a while it really doesn't matter but if you are constantly charging your phone every day when the battery isn't in real need of it, eventually the battery will go bad. It may even get to the point where it won't charge at all for you anymore. The general rule of thumb is to let your phone die completely about once a month to keep the battery fresh. What I would recommend though, is not charging your phone every day. Let the battery wear down. Buy a car charger so that you can charge it while driving if it needs to be. This will save you from buying a new battery every 9-12 months. New battery's usually cost around $50.

With a standard battery charger, no. The charger will stop charging when the battery is fully charged.

No. As with all rechargeable electronic devices, you can leave them charging for as long as you want.

Yes. It may begin to over heat and may cause damages internally. This was the reason my first iPod touch was inactive.
