Just ordered my Anker battery today and was wondering if there was any certain break in period or anything...
Years ago it was suggested to make sure you let the battery charge 100% before powering up the device and was curious if that was still required/suggested....

It's mentioned I think a couple of times in that thread, most recently around post 90ish if I remember right.
Thank you Blue6IX I was being lazy

I needed an extra battery last minute so I ended up having to grab a fascinate battery. The markings other than mah seemed the same. Are they cross compatible?

I got two of the Anker 2025's, and am pretty happy with them. But, I wanted something I could grab between work meetings, etc. These batteries are stable and cheap, around the same amount of run time as the stock battery
If you're looking for something that offers more talk time I'd go for the nexus battery

I wonder why did you go for such a Lil upgrade, did this battery fit in your stock back cover?

OK my skyrocket vis having a problem I've never seen before. It doesn't fully charge. I'll leave it on the charger over night and it will stay on 20% and never goes past it. I tired different batteries, chargers even those separate battery chargers. I tired different ROMs still no luck. Also tired returning to stock but I get stuck at loop.

How's the battery drain when you unplug? Does it sit at 20% for, well, hours on end, or does it start dropping to 19% within an hour or so?
I'm wondering if it's just your battery meter glitching out, not so much the batteries themselves. Tried wiping the battery stats yet?
I'm thinking the same tj software I say try going back to stock again but this time follow the guide step by step
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
It starts to drop normally but gets to one percent and last about 30 minutes.

This. Go to stock, root, then wipe battery stats. Charge the battery to 100% with phone off then leave it for another 30 mins. Turn the phone on and use the Battery Calibration app (rooted) to start the calibration, then use the phone normally and take it all the way down to 0%. Repeat with the other two batteries before switching off of stock. That should go a long way towards solving the problem.

I went to GB stock, charged with phone off for over 8 hours, says only 30 percent life. The charger i used is OEM samsung and works fine with my other phone

This probably has been posted, any who. Has anybody gotten another battery? If so from where? Cause I've seen the ones on amazon are like. $10, and Samsung sells them for $40. So if anybody can point me where to buy a replacement battery, I'll be thankful. My battery drains without usage.. it doesn't matter if it has NFC BTW.

Are they used? How much do you want for them? I've been considering getting a replacement battery from amazon as well but I wonder how good those $10 batteries are.
Only one.. but really, I'd rather buy from amazon.. or at least, not have to use pay pal. Thanks, though.

Wasn't offering to "sell" them. They are junk. Would of tossed you one. Lasts about 3-4 hours. And that's every battery I've used that was not official Samsung.
