3rd Party Battery - Fascinate Accessories

Are there 3rd party batteries that are higher quality than Samsungs? Last longer?

I don't think third party batteries would work because of the battery script. I could possibly work if you are on punk.kaos's or jt1134's rom (CM7)

3rd Party batteries should work with any custom kernel. However, I have never read 3rd party batteries consistently outperforming the OEM battery. If you're looking for a cheap alternative for a "just in case" time, then they are good, but that is it.

I don't know about necessarily outperforming the OEM battery. 1500mAh is 1500mAh. The only way it would really be different is if it was defective.
I have had great luck, myself, with this kit: http://cgi.ebay.com/3x-1500mAh-Batt...603758?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item35b20f256e
Using a custom kernel (which I've been doing since pretty much day 1), it works perfectly (no warning popup).
I only use the included charger with the 3rd party batteries, though. I'm not up for taking chances on that part.

What!
So Am I understand this right? Aftermarket/oem batteries do not work with stock kernal?-AT

They work "fine" with a stock phone, they just can't be charged in the phone. Which is why a lot of ebay auctions include an external charger. I have 5 batteries, all Samsung, last batch I got out of China $2 each. I use the OTB kernel which allows me to charge non-fascinate batteries in the phone, however, I rarely do. The external chargers are very nice I just swap to a fresh batery and throw the dead one in the charger.

The Seidio batteries work fine for both stock and with custom roms/kernals. They charge fine in the phone and run fine. No issues.

OK for starters i am running the latest miui ROM and loving it. for the battery it wont work on my wife's phone with a older ROM cant remember what she has on it.
for the battery i was getting about no more then 8 hours running Pandora all day at work now i can get about 2.5 days on one charge with going to work and listing to pandora for 2 days at work. so i think if you pick a good rom that supports it go for it

I am still looking for an extended battery that is same size as OEM. any ideas?-AT

I saw a study a while back about 3rd party batteries. The majority of the 3rd party batteries tested, were garbage, weren't what they were actually rated as, and were far inferior to the stock batteries. However, there are some 3rd party batteries that are made by reputable companies; that being said, I wouldn't trust the China made crap batteries sold on Ebay.

It is allmost twice as thick, but it feels so nice in my hand. I like the thickness

I have tried a couple of these batteries
AND THEY DO NOT WORK WITH THE FASCINATE!!!!.. THEY DO WORK WITH THE VIBRANT BUT FOR SOME REASON NOT THE FACINATE>....

I just got a seidio battery for my telus samsung galaxy s fascinate... And it's not charging at all. Had it in the phone and plugged into the charger all night last night. The charge went down to zero % and then when I unplugged the phone, it shut itself off due to the lack of charge. My phone is stock with no roms added, just the firmware upgrades. I'm at a loss.

I have a 2300 mah I got from Amazon for 15$ I believe, however it was listed as 3000 mah. makes a big difference

Droid charge batteries

Just wondering has anyone purchased some spare batteries on ebay? I don't want any extended ones cuz i don't want extra size to the phone. I wanted to buy a spare one actually made by Samsung and a battery charging dock so i won't have to switch batteries just to charge them. I don't know if any other non-oem batteries are any good. Hopefully someone can give me some feedback or info about that. Thanks

Honestly I bought the media dock with spare battery at VZW and havent looked back since. doubles as an alarm clock, charges spare battery at the same time and i dont need to worry about fiddling with plugging in the cable, just slide it into the dock. It's very much worth the 49 they are asking since the dock alone is 39 so its an extra 10 for the oem battery
I was just browsing ebay and there are some 1800mah batteries. I am wandering how true that can be though!
I purchased some of these batteries for my thunderbolt and didn't notice any difference, not sure if i want to spend that much money on sth like this again !
It'll be good to know if anyone has actually tried these on their droid charge ...

When I had the Nexus S, there was a huge topic about the 1800 mah batteries from China. The result? It was fake. So I wouldn't go for those. Just stick to the standard Samsung 1600 mah batteries or the extended ones.
Yeah i was thinking id just go for the Samsung ones

Yup, just like the seido batteries on the droid incredible. Nothing but garbage but claimed a much higher rating in the same form factor. There was a huge thread on df about it where a guy ran a discharge tester with just about every battery that was sent to him.
OEM or the 2200 battery in the factory format must be new technology that the oem's haven't picked up on yet, lol lol lol
Because I can't post links yet, I unfortunately can't show you guys the extra batteries that I have. However, if you go to Amazon, and search "Hyperion Samsung Droid Charge i510 2 x Battery + Charger", you can see them.
For 25 bucks they're not a bad deal for two batteries, and I get comparable battery life to my original battery.
Wish i could have seen those earlier. I ordered two Samsung batteries and an external charger from ebay. The batteries are 1500 mah instead of the original 1600mah. So ill see how those work out...

I got the desk dock that another poster got from VZW. Fortunately, I got a 25% discount because of my company.
I had a bad experience with ebay batteries on my DX. The one I got on that will only charge in charger that came with it - not in the phone. And, then the phone does not always recognize that battery. Because of that burn I only buy OEM now.

One of the main reasons I like having a hacked kernel is the ability to use non-oem batteries (unlike the DX) - use something like the pbj kernels that incorporate that option. & Another reason I'm waiting on making the switch to a GB rom.
{SDCharge Humb£e 1.25}
I'm using the the Hyperion batteries in both the GF's Tbolt and my Charge with no issues at all. Yes the wall charger is quite slow but I don't mind becasue I figure it's not hammering the batteries with a high rate charge.

Anker 1800mah

Had anybody tried the 1800mah batteries made by anker for the epic?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Hard to search from tapatalk, but I posted my experience on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182278
I'm in the process of RMA'ing one of them. The other is good. Seller has been responsive so far.
EDIT: Seller sent the replacement battery quickly and for free. As with the original battery, turned out it was a non-issue. So, all Anker batteries that I received work well. All batteries have 2011-09 timestamps - fresh.
Can this battery be charged in the phone or does it have to be on an external charger?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
it's not that great. their 1500 is better some how.
it does charge in the phone btw, but it take a long time to charge.
The Ankers worked great for me. I got two plus a charger and now they are all I used. I used to carry two spare stock batteries around just in case. Now these two are it. I'd take two of these over three stock batteries any day, even though I know the math does not add up.
They do charge in the phone, but if I actually have to use the spare, then when I get home I charge one in the charger at the same time the phone charges the other. The phone charges faster than the charger, but maybe slower than it charges the stock battery.
I don't have a good way to test how much charge a battery holds though. Is there an app that tracks battery usage so I'd be able to tell how much more charge one battery has than another?
I bought the Anker 1800mAh batteries and charger for $17 on ebay (maybe cheaper, I don't remember). My wife uses it in her Epic and it easily lasts all day long, no issues. I find it to last almost as long as my stock 1800mAh battery does in my Epic Touch.
No issues with either one, recharging time isn't an issue since it'll last all day and it'll recharge overnight while we're sleeping... Plus that leaves us an 1800mAh and the stock 1500mAh batteries as spares...

I got them from amazon, 2 for $20 with the free charger. I've bought other batteries before but now can't imagine why anyone with an epic wouldn't get these.

I'm pretty happy with, Battery Monitor Widget
Ordered from Amazon
I just ordered the 2x1800 mah Anker batteries plus an external charger for about 27 bucks from Amazon. Can't wait to get them and try them out. I think I might've burned through my stock battery a bit faster than usual because it doesn't seem to hold a charge as well as it did, and I was always flashing ROMs and having to re-calibrate the battery every time.
Curiously enough, the stock battery issue seemed to be more pronounced when I went to EI22 and flashed the ACS ICS "F*** it, we'll do it live" v5.5 ROM
hmm....could be just in my head, though. It's a great ROM.
I just got the 2 Anker 1800mAh batteries with the external charger for $20 plus tax (still under $22 with free 2 day shipping using Amazon Prime).
This was a GREAT deal so far, and it's nice to have 2 spare batteries (one extra 1800 and the stock 1500 I've been using for the past year).
This is a bargain and I recommend anyone who has even thought for a sec about getting a spare battery to pick up this deal.
http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Batteri...GXR6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1323157418&sr=8-1
The only downside I can see so far is that the battery is SLIGHTLY heavier, so the phone feels a little heavier than with the stock battery. I guess it's just physics.
Makes the phone feel more solid.
I had a 100% charge at noon today and so far with pretty heavy use, 12 hours later, I'm at about 44% which isn't bad. In the past I've had to charge in the middle of the day to avoid phone going dead at night.
Wow!! Anker-licious!
So I finally got my (w)Anker batteries in the mail and charged one up. I installed it, immediately booted to ACS Recovery 5 and wiped battery stats, rebooted, and I've been running the phone uninterrupted ever since. This was very early this morning.
So far so good!! Ten + hours and only at 76% after mostly idling, with some moderate Facebooking, Youtubing, and Bluetooth audio streaming thrown in.
Battery fits perfectly in my Epic and zero issues so far.
I wonder how it will behave after the break-in period of 4 to 5 cycles.
I use the anker 1800 in my wife's epic. It consistently gets 3+ hours over the stock. Well worth the $12 and a real upgrade for us as the stock battery would always give up around the 11hr mark and the same use she gets 14+ hrs w the 1800. Around 3 hour screen on time maybe.
Although in my nexus the anker 1600 seems worse than my stock battery. Worth a try but not an upgrade in a nexus.

Sorry bout that last "post" I was taking the back off my phone lol. Anyway, here's a question:
My wife got the Touch not too long ago. Before, she had what I'm using now, the Epic 4g. When she had the 4g, she was getting such crappy battery life that she bought an xtra one. When I adopted the Epic, she didn't want to give up the battery. (Don't ask me why,she's crazy) But she has been holding onto battery, afraid to put it into her SG2. From reading the posts in here, I'm assuming that she can use her xtra battery (1500mAh) in her SG2. Am I right? I'm sure she wont get nearly as long life as the 1800 that's in her phone now, but she could use the 1500 in a pinch couldn't she? (No matter what the answer is, I'm gonna tell her no so she'll pony up the xtra one lol) But just out of curiosity, would the 1500 work in the SG2?
Thanx,
Ridge

If you suspect it is not performing its best, take it in to att and they will replace it if its gone bad prematurely.

It ships from asia. I dont buy anything that ships from asia cause you risk it being a fake. But here is a link on reviews of it from other users who purchased it.
http://www.htcdesirehdforum.com/htc...rnative-battery-2430mah-high-capacity-bas470/
The Anker 1600 mah battery is like $8? $9? On ebay. After batt calibration, this thing can go over 36 hrs running cm7. Mugen's are awesome too. Not all the batteries on there are bad, but as a general rule, stay away from anything shipping from Asia.
Still it is the wrong forum but as long as the topic is open....
+1 for the Anker 1600 batteries. Picked up 2 and a universal charger on ebay for about $15. Have only been using one of the batteries. But the difference is very noticeable over the HTC battery. Much better battery life. Installed Battery Monitor Widget to get some stats on the battery. Reported at 1480mAh. Don't know if the app is correct. HTC battery may have been starting to degrade already too which says alot of its quality. But the Anker battery so far for me has been out performing the HTC battery.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004XUNRRQ/ref=oh_o06_s00_i00_details bought those and they are great i easily get 2 days out of one battery, 20$ you get 2 1600mAh and a standalone charger, i think its a great deal!

Looks fake to me. I bought an extended battery a few months ago to replace my stock battery. It was actually worse than the stock battery. I would bet that this is a standard capacity battery with a gold packaging to make it look even better.
I bought a refurb'd inspire 4g. My battery was faulty, like my phone kept shutting down randomly.
Then I got a battery from aftermarket, all is well.
Mine lasts 2 days with juice defender, without it, it's like 6 hrs.
Radio makes a lot of difference to battery life. Don't see how you can put an extended battery in an inspire casing... just saying..

I used to say the same thing over and over. But my white laptopmate batteries are still kicking butt. Battery monitor rates them on average of 1475mAh. If you want to call that extended, I wouldn't. No it doesn't rate them 1600 like the packaging says. Whether that value is correct or not doesn't really matter to me. They work well and I believe better than the original. Our oem battery is chinese made too by the way.
And maybe these third party manufacturers do rate them loosely. Or maybe the oem batteries are rated very conservatively. I never had a chance to see what battery monitor rated my oem. But these 2 batteries and universal charger were worth every penny of the $15 I spent.
I learn that if turn off the wifi when you not use, will let unit run longer

Improving battery life

Hi all,
I would like to make my battery life for my phone better. I would like the opinion about external batteries and after market batteries. I just don't know what to buy. Should I buy both?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I've heard stories that Juice Defender in the market is worth it, may want to check out the free version.
I also recommend the stock battery for the EVO Design 4G, fits perfect in our G2/Desire Z and gives a little kick over stock. If you are looking for a monster extended battery that requires a new battery door, check out the battery thread in Accessories.
A lot of folks on here swear by so called "higher capacity" 3rd party batteries like Seidio and others.
But a while back, a guy on here did a bunch of testing of various 3rd party and OEM batteries on various phones. He found that the expensive, so called "high capacity" or extended 3rd party batteries almost never met their rated mAh. And often even tested lower than the stock (lower rated) OEM battery.
He wrote up his test methodology and results very comprehensively. It looked to be done pretty scientifically, and I take more stock in this than anecdotal evidence. Can't find it right now, but its a great writeup.
If your looking for a bigger battery I can vouch for the extended ones @ htcpedia, Having purchased a few myself.
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-desire-z/accessories/batteries.html
That aside your can try flashing a different kernel, for better battery life.
I have the Mugan 1800mah, after flashing a new radio (the newest one from T Mobile) and the matching RiL files my battery is lasting longer. So far on a single charge and moderate use I am getting around 36 hours.
I brought this CHICITECH set (2x1900mah batteries and a wall charger) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/220648053...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1427.l2649#ht_5383wt_1185 and they arrived about 7 working days after in the UK.
I only got them yesterday, but already i have noticed a big difference. I had a stock battery before but these are lasting between 30 and 50% longer. I have heard good reviews about them before and they seem good so far.
You do need to remove the sticker and cut off a small bit of plastic to make them fit reasonably, but for the price your getting what appear to be 2 good batteries. Mugen slim batteries are a ripoff IMO.
So EVO 4G batteries would fit with some modifying? Hmm i think an external battery would be better for my use than carrying spares.

Get 2 batteries and keep one charged in your wallet, works a treat and doesnt add bulk
Just out of curiosity how long does ur average battery last? I can usually squeeze ~14 hours with moderate use. if u don't want the bulky feel I would suggest just getting another oem battery as a spare
Idea:
Grab one of those Energizer charge-on-the-go things with a micro-usb plug and use that to rapid charge your phone when you need a boost mid-day.
http://static.phonesreview.co.uk/wp-content/phoneimages/2011/05/Energizer-Energi-to-Go-pic-1.jpg
^ Just an idea.. I would substitute the lithium batteries with rechargables so that you can charge those up overnight and have them ready for the day too.
I have the stock battery and it can last about 19hrs on moderate use (10hrs on heavy) on Virtuous Quattro overclocked to 1.2GHz. Never had my phone die on me even when I ran Sense ROMs (after a 3 day break in period =p)

I'd get both a aftermarket and a OEM, Run a test on both to see which works better for you.
I recommend Mugen's 1800 mah

And HTC's EVO Design 4G 1520 mah

I don't know if you've tried juice defender app before but I think it helps. Not a lot but you can tell that it improves a little. I think the app kills the date, wifi, when it's in sleep mode and turns back on when you wake and use your phone.

Since lollipop update (3 days ago) i cant get 6h of SOT like i did in KK right now im at 7% with 4h 53min of SOT. I installed greenify and greenified some apps running in background.. I will see if i get better results
Also if i root the phone will i get better battery life? If i freeze some crap? I mean like 1h more of SOT ?

Personally i'd only buy a genuine Samsung battery, whatever you do don't buy any cheap rubbish on ebay, especially if they claim to be higher capacity yet OEM size. If that was possible Samsung would have done it themselves.....
Disabling stuff maybe will get you 30 min more SoT
I have 6 hrs Sot too and its very good comparing to other phones

Not sure if this is the best deal but I only looked a couple of minutes. http://www.shopandroid.com/samsung-extra-3220mah-battery-charging-system/8A37A19066.htm
I bought an Anker battery (the same one you refer to) as a spare with my first round of accessories for my N4. I didn't try it out until one morning when I woke up to find my phone's battery completely drained from some rogue service that had kept it awake all night long. The Anker battery has remained in my phone and been solely used ever since.
I did find it to drain noticeably more slowly that the Samsung battery that came in my phone. I'm not trying to imply that the Anker batteries are better than the OEM batteries; as there are variances between different batches of batteries it seems most likely that my Samsung battery just happened to be on the weaker side of the distribution chart...
What I am saying is that my experience was strong evidence (for me at least) that the batteries made by Anker are at least as good as the batteries made by Samsung. If I needed a new battery, I would buy whichever was cheaper at the time (strictly new and not a knockoff, of course). Taking a quick look at Amazon, if I needed to order a new battery today, I'd order the Anker for $13 rather than the Samsung for $18 without hesitation.
TL,DR: IMO/E Anker makes quality products are their batteries are no exception. My advice @patriotaki: Ordering an Anker battery to see if it lasted longer than the OG battery would be a good decision. It may noticeably extend your battery life (as was my experience) or it may not, but in either case, you'll have a quality backup in case it's ever needed regardless of which one you decide to make your "primary". If you think you should be getting better battery life than you are currently, trying a different battery is an entirely reasonable troubleshooting step (along with the others suggested), and most definitely worth the low cost :good:
