WTF?

Where do you come up with this #(%&?

Ni-Cd, or Nickel Cadmium batteries, are prone to the 'memory effect', not Ni-Mh (Nickel Metal Hydride) or lithium ion/lithium polymer....

Completely discharging and charging your phone is not necessary, and will actually decrease battery life expectancy, as batteries have a limited number of recharge cycles then they lose capacity , and will eventually stop working.
