Is it better to turn your phone off at night? Or leave it on? I've heard reasons on both sides. I turn mine off, cause I think it saves the wear & tear. Any opinions?

i do the same thing.

Although I keep my phone on the charger a lot at work during the day my phone is still fully charged in the afternoon. So I make sure to run it down to at least 50 percent so that its not sitting on the charger at 100 all night. Plus i reboot every 12 hours to clear the memory.
 
I really see no reason to keep phone off overnight (or any extended period of time) other than to charge faster. But if its overnight then you don't really need to worry about that lol
 
I usually leave mine on overnight for my morning alarm. I actually never charge my phone at home considering I'm at work all day so my phone is just chillin and charging up :cool: best part is that I don't have to charge my phone overnight because it doesn't take up much juice on standby. Shoot I can sleep happy knowing my phone is at least 25% and I'll wake up to it at around 15% just in time for my alarm to go off lol
 
leave it on, you might have an emergency threw the night, and waiting 45 sec to 1 minute could save someones life. (just saying) :smokingsomb:

Yeah, that may be true. But when I'm asleep a train couldn't wake me up LOL. But I've been leaving it on now anyway....just in case. Plus it charges pretty fast on the #2 ROM
