OEM Battery

It seems like my battery is slowly losing its performance after charging and discharging it repeatedly. I live in Canada and I am not sure if HTC sells the Nexus One battery anymore. Google used to sell them on their website for $25. Does anyone know where I can get an OEM one?

Ebay? Or, i have a brand new OEM battery. PM me.

Removed the link to Amazon. Sorry but I realized it's from a different seller than the one I purchased for.

Thanks, but the reviews don't look very postive though

Thanks, I'll think about it
So HTC doesn't sell them officially anymore?

Try calling the Accessory Replacement line to see if they still carry them. 1.888.716.3594

Should be a free replacement, if your phone is still under warranty.

Funny you are posting this, I have been having the same problem. I called HTC today and they are sending me a free replacement, and i can keep the old battery. Give them a call!

I just called them today and they are sending me a free one! Thanks everyone

Isn't the battery if N1 the same as Desire? i bought OEM Battery from ebay and it said Desire it fitted perfectly.

Just called them and they're sending me a new battery and a new set of headphones. They were really nice about the whole thing.
Thanks for the tip!

Has anyone tried mugen replacement? Not the extended one, regular replacement, thinking about ordering one as mine is also losing its charge faster than before...

So what exactly did you guys tell them to get a new battery?

I told HTC that my battery can't hold charge very well anymore. As long as you are still under warranty, they will send you a new one.

I picked up a BNIB OEM battery on ebay for $18. Great buy but beware of the knock offs

I tried to do the same but unsuccessfully. The phone had a one year warranty so they won't replace the battery.

[Q] OEM Battery?

Hey guys, was wondering if this listing is OEM?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-FL-53HN...424337?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27bd2ad0d1

At that price probably a copy. I would doubt it is a genuine LG battery. The only way to be sure is to buy one from TMO, LG or a reputable chain store. Everyone else most likely has copies.

I personally bought this one (can't post the link) on ebay:
LG Genuine Battery FL-53HN for Optimus2X/G2X P990/p999
Item Number: 250937514724
It is physically identical to the original (exact same labels, phone numbers, ect) and has slightly better battery life. It might still be a knockoff but if it is, it is a very good one.

I bought it, when it arrives, I let you guys knows how well it functions.

See how the battery temps report. Most of these batteries have bogus temps sensors and give phony data. Having a non-working temp sensor in the battery could result in a disaster to your beloved phone.

I got the battery today and for a usage of about 8 hours, I would say it is doing very well. I will report later in a few days to see if it corrupts anytime soon.

I am averaging out about 5% per hour. I recommend getting it.

Free extended battery - Portland, OR - Will not ship

One-click Amazon ordering is easy. So easy , in fact, that I accidentally ordered the extended battery for an Epic 4g, instead of my Epic 4g Touch. Shipping it back would be stupid, since I only paid about 8 bucks for it. It's new and free, but you have to pick it up. PM me to setup a time to pick it up. First come first serve. Ready... Set... GO!

how do you expect people who don't live around you are going to get this if there 1st. ???
I'm sorry but most would prefer shipping i would've myself just shipped it back and told them it was accidentally the wrong battery and should have gotten the D710 instead of the D700
not being rude but its just silly that your going to make someone travel to you only if they live near you.

It's a free $8 battery... for free...

How about this? If nobody local PMs me today, I will pay to ship it to another interested party. Will that make you happy?

I don't mind if they're off a little, I'd just call them maybe 2000-2200mAh to be closer to what they *often* are and still sell them at the same price. The same people are going to buy them either way and in my experience they've accomplished about that average of capacity. (I'd love if they all achieved 2600mAh like my dad's golden Generic does)

thats more of a soso, because they see a big battery and see "3500", if it said 2000 they stop and stare to the fact that "hey maybe the 1800 would do just as good" as it is an OEM and slimmer.

I guess so... but it still offers a far better value, it's just twice as thick for slightly better to noticeably better capacity at almost 1/3 the price

[SOLD] Anyone want to buy 2 3600mAh Mugen Batteries?

I would post this in the marketplace section but XDA won't let me. Gotta be an XDA member for over a year.
I no longer need 2 of these batteries. One has the black back door, the other has the khaki back door.
I've been using my 2 Anker's lately because I don't need to travel as much for work. Therefore, I think someone could make better use of these batteries than I can.
I have the original receipts and boxes from Mugen. They're about 3 months old (bought them in June) and I've been alternating between both batteries by using an Anker wall charger. Needless to say, I haven't charged my Doubleshot via USB in a while. I get about 2 days of battery life from each Mugen with moderate use on CM9 A5.
PM me with reasonable offers if you're interested. I'm in the North NJ/NYC area if you're nearby and wanna meet up. I can also do PayPal and USPS Priority Mail. Thanks.

There are a couple ways to unlock. I followed the first guide (for a couple MT4GS'es) in the following link without troubles:

Make sure you are on stock or stock-based ROM (like MikTouch) when doing this, or the unlock code won't stick.

2nd Faulty Replacement, Now what?

Hey guys,
Time for a little advice. I have the HTC One XL on ATT, and began to notice sever screen rippling on the sides and middle of my device. So, naturally, I called warranty and had it replaced. That replacement came back with screen ripples worse than the original device. So I called again, and they overnighted a second replacement. Just came in this morning. 3 dead pixels, and a prominent ripple effect along the left side of the device towards the middle.
I've heard stories about getting it switched for another device, but is that even possible? What are your guy's thoughts?

Try getting 10 replacements before getting one halfway decent. I have to admit tho that AT&T is good with sending out replacements no questions asked.
P. S. How bout we let mods do their job instead of us trying to do it for them. Just sayin'.

They're definitely good at sending the replacements, no lies there. Only problem is that they're defective upon arrival.. Which isn't good at all.
I don't want them to keep sending replacements if they're all going to be broken, ya know?
P.S.- I thought that since this was more of an issue and advice kind of thing, that maybe general would be a good idea? Not exactly asking a direct question. I've been on XDA for a while, I know the rules.

Well unfortunately they send out nothing but refurbs, you just gotta keep going until you get a good one.
They used to let you walk into a store and exchange your broken device for a brand new one. Not the case anymore.

If you happen to have a AT&T Device Support Center near you, I believe they will swap it out for you right there: http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB91429&cv=820#fbid=raRvhaTUUJr
Its not official policy to let you switch to a different phone. But I've heard of cases where they will do it, if you've gone through several bad refurbs, and b1tch loud enough at the right people. Having multiple lines, long time customer etc. helps also.
I think the One X is fundamentally a good phone, and HTC makes good hardware. As mentioned before, its probably a matter of the fact that you are getting refurbs and not new ones. Its a bit odd that you have had 3 phones with the exact same issue. Maybe the screens get damaged when they fix the phones and re-assemble them?

That was my thought. When I got my One X new, it wasn't having the screen issues. Then they started appearing. So I called and got the replacement.
Granted, I know that all screens are going to flex if you press on them. That's just a given. But the One X (As told by HTC themselves) should not have as severe flex as I've been getting on all 3 devices. That isn't right.
I guess I'll call and see. We have 3 lines on the plan right now, and my family has been on ATT since it was called Cingular. So I'll see what happens. three phones just doesn't cut it when they all break
EDIT: Just got off the phone. They're sending a third replacement overnight. If this third one doesn't work, they're giving me a free make/model change. Hopefully this replacement is good though, I love the One X

The reason why it happens is probably because you're getting refurbs which are basically returned devices that were only checked to see if they turned on and did not have major damage.
I would press for constant replacement until you get a perfect device.

After 10 replacements not one was in "good" condition until the one I have now. But now that I think about it the more I can see the reason this one also was returned by someone and just sent back out by AT&T without checking or fixing it. It's extremely laggy at times for no apparent reason even after a factory reset and rom change and the vibration rattles pretty loudly. I never can notice a difference with the custom kernels set to 2.1ghz. Seems the same as 1.5. Those seem to be the major things. I wasn't looking for those problems tho.
The problems the other phones had were mostly screen and build problems. Overheating also.
Anyways, that's why I left AT&T and now use Straight Talk and buy my phones straight up and unlocked.

Who knows what this guy will say. The One X is a high quality phone. I guess it all depends on the rep you get because I've heard reports of people getting credit on their account, and a guy got the GS3. But I won't settle for anything less than the One X
