Hi,
i just got my c56 and i am not sure how long to charge it.

i have searched and i have found posts about how long to charge a cell phone in general, but not for the first time.

the instructions only say 4 hours but i have seen some websites say 12 and others say 24. and ive seen some websites say if you charge it too long, it damages the battery.

so which is right?
thanks a lot!

8 hours is sufficient i guess

Charging it for 8-10 hours the first time is fine.

um lol what if you did charge it for 24 hours? I hope that doesn't cause any damage, most sales ppl recommend that. Fido recommends that as well but then says charging for too long will reduce battery life or damage it....
