Just a little longer... Almost there... Just a little bit more...

 

If I remember correctly, mine takes just over 2 hours to charge.

 

It could take up to 12 hours for the first go-around, then three to four each time thereafter.

I'm not sure why it takes so long the first time. I really don't think it would hurt to use the phone after three or four hours of first-time charging, though. Lithiums are resilient as long as you don't deep-discharge them.

(They actually don't like to be overcharged, but the charging circuit protects against that, so don't worry about leaving it charged too long, either.)

 

Well...I didn't charge mine when I got my N1 XD I didn't read the instruction and saw that the battery was partially charged...so I immediately started playing with it

 

You DID put the battery in correctly right?

 

If you want just play with it while its plugged in, the charger will still gain ground. Mine will normally charge from dead to full in 3 hours and change. Only took an hour or so from the partially charged state it came in to get a green light which I later figured out means 90%, not full charge.

 

How's it going, Eddie? Are you there yet?

 

lol, hopefully he's busy playing with his new toy

 

I couldn't wait so I just played with it while it was charging!
