I have recently bought a 6610i, and the first time i charged it for around 6
hours is this long enough? If it is not could it damage the phones battery?

They normally recommend overnight, but I'm sure 6 hours will be fine.
Let's face it the phone gives the battery a rapid charge to about 80 or
90% (I think, techies might be able to give you a more accurate amount)
and then it backs off to trickle charge.
I normally cycle my new phone batteries (Li-ion) the first few times,
ie. charge them fully and then run them flat. I then only cycle them
occasionally and they seem to last me well over year with 24/7 usage.

Hi! Its me again. Hmmm, i charged my phone yesterday from approx. 16 to 21
and then today it ran out of battery, is this normal? ( Its my first phone
with cam and colour display. ) Or have i screwed up the battery allready?
Ps. its a Nokia 6610i!

My experience with this type of battery is that the battery will get better
after a few load/unload cycles. And I also fould out that the camera in the
phone consumes a lot of power. Did you experiment with it a lot?
