I just plug it in and use it as I would normally, never had any issues. Certainly, if the batteries were NiCd, then you'd need to be waaaay more careful. But, that is just me. There will be many dissenting opinions.
Use up the battery first before charging the first time.
Charge up the battery first, even though it already has 50% life showing.
I've always read that you're supposed to fully charge and then fully use up a new battery 3-4 times to condition it in a way that will make it have the best capacity and useful life. But the issue is, when you get a new battery, it will often have a partial charge already. So you unwrap the new battery, slap it in the phone, and it shows like 40-50% battery life, even though you haven't charged it yet.
So, are we supposed to go ahead and use up the battery down to like 5-10% first before charging the battery for the first time? Or, do you go ahead and just charge it first all the way up to the full 100%, even though it already has a 50% charge out of the wrapper? And then you use it all the way down to 5-10% and fully re-charge it 3-4 times?

Li-Ion batteries do not need to be conditioned or 'broken in'
The software in you phone however needs to be 'trained' to the capacity of your new battery.
Therefore it is advisable to do one full charge and discharge cycle and back to full.
After that I suggest to only charge up to around 90% if possible, as this will prolong the cycle life of your battery considerably.

I always tell customers to charge the battery to 100% and then some - think of it like a night charge
batteries when flat can go below threshold and the thing wont charge or turn on (3.06V for iphones) and then the battery needs to come out and placed on the

Never charge batteries unattended.
Fast asleep at night = unattended !

I said think of it "like" a night charge......... nothing about being unattended......... or asleep............... you know, when you charge your device when you aren't playing games, facebooking or watching youtube - leaving the bloody thing alone while it's charging......
