As far as I know, LiIon batteries should be kept in about 40%-80% range in order to degrade more slowly.

On my laptop I use the following commands to make it change battery conditionally, only when it's lower than 45% and up to 90% instead of to 100%:

tpacpi-bat -v -s ST 1 45
tpacpi-bat -v -s SP 1 90

How do I do the same for Android? I can control the charger from software, so it should be definitely possible.

Device: Huawei Honor 6 (H60-L04)

I managed to do it for the same device cutting off charging at am upper level. How do I override charging current on Huawei Honor 6? Surely something on those lines can be implemented for lower l level maybe a macro to shutdown the phone ( too drastic) or sound alarms and send text messages or mails if you are not close to the phone Hope this helps

  • I'll probably write a program that periodically polls current charge level and does echo 0 > enable_charger automatically.

  • @Vi0 :-) were you able to echo 0.. I couldn't at all and had to copy paste file. Big thanks to you for pointing that file

  • enable_charger is a typical sysfs/proc knob which should be perfectly readable by cat and writable by echo ... > (as root, obviously).

    Have you received a notification of my reply in the chat? (I'm not sure how reliably this "move to chat" feature works).
