Remove the charger when your phone shows 100% battery, it's common sense

if you charge your phone through a computer or car charger it will take longer than a wall charger.

something around 4h through a wall charger, yes.
More than 5h through usb connected to the computer.

that doesn't seem right, unless you are using the phone while charging and/or if you are downloading or if you leave the wifi on then it will make sense it take that long.

Since the begining it's like that but the battery seems to be ok and the % charge decrease normally

perhaps there is an issue with your wall charger or cable.

That is certainly not normal, about 2.5 hours would be ok unless you have a lot of data/process heavy applications installed that run in the background. The next time you need to charge it, reboot it then put in on charge and let us know if there is a difference in charging speed.

Hi, I read on GSMArena it's 8 Hours pertaining to the very first charge with a link atached. I use my Jawbone wall charger with the phone original cable. If you use a dock and sleep it's fully charged when you wake up.

Longer cables and PC might likely be unsatisfying. All the mobo makers like Asus, Gigabyte etc. now offer integrated chips that can charge smartphones through USB.

"...your battery is "charged" and it doesn't charge anymore while sitting in the charger, but after about an hour or two, in the non-charging state, the battery will drain a little and can immediately activate a full charge again if it is sitting in your charger. This "fast charge, slow discharge" process happens a few times during your 8 hours"..."If you use it after the 8 hours charge cycle, the battery is optimized and will stay in that condition for a long time before it starts its normal degrading."
