of course.. that takes some discipline, lol.

if youre going to tether.. best to have a separate battery that you use for only tethering, and change it out when youre done.. so that you dont have to battle to keep your phone alive all day when youre using it normally.

or keep an extra battery always charged so that you dont have to charge the battery while its hot.. because the phone is heating the battery.. the battery isnt heating itself (very much)..
1- whos talking about discharging?? the battery stays at 100%
2- the point of this thread is that everything is running cool while you tether
3- you need some DISIPIRIN *Eric CartmanSan*
