Is it possible to power the phone without a battery?
#2
The S8 I was using as a home phone with a DeX dock and 24" touchscreen just about exploded. You definitely don't want to leave them plugged in 24/7! I tried getting it to work without the battery too BTW (great minds think alike.)

Another solution is limiting the amount of charging to somewhere between 40% and 80%. The MyASUS app on my laptop does this as do some custom Android builds.
