Take good care of your battery
Use the power adapter that came with your phone
Other power adapters and chargers may charge slowly or not at all. They can also damage your phone or battery. For more information about the charger for your phone,please contact your device manufacturer.
Avoid situations where your phone may overheat, especially when your battery is fully charged. Your battery will drain much faster when it's warm, even if you're not using it. This type of draining can damage your battery.
