[Q] What do you recommend? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay guys so I leave soon for about two months and I wanna buy a battery case. I know their are 3 but all of them have some less than stellar reviews. I'm hoping this is because the amazon buyers are technology challenged. So from a forum of experienced users what do you guys suggest?

[Q] Xoom Wifi...cracked glass....need part supplier...

Hi All,
I have searched the forum, and have not found my answer. If it is out there I can't find it using the search terms I can think of.
I dropped my Xoom wifi. Cracked the glass. I have watched a couple of the repair videos on youtube. I can do the labor. I have contacted Motorola and they are not willing to sell me the part. Motorola only offered to do the repair for me for $199. I am looking for a good supplier of Xoom parts. I have googled it and found a few suppliers of the glass/digitizer for half the price motorola will do the repair for. I have not heard of these companies before, and am wondering if anyone has any experience with them...

Has anyone had any experiences with these companies?
thanks for any help,

Repairs Universe is a very reputable site. Prices could be lower, but they sell high quality stuff and ship it to you fast.
thanks brandogg. I ordered the replacement glass from them last night.

No problem, from what I've seen, it's a relatively simple job, just make sure you have a can of compressed air and a micro fiber cloth on hand. Take some pics if it's not too much of a hassle and if you don't mind.

Interested in buying extended battery

Is there anyone tried extended battery from Batterybay???
I found on google that they have extended battery for Samsung Galaxy S4
http://www.batterybay.net/Battery-for-Samsung-Galaxy-S4-Galaxy-S4-LTE-p/samsung-cs-smi950wl.htm
:victory::victory::victory:
If anyone tried that, can you write some report on it? How is its performance???
I am thinking of buying one but need some user experience to make the decision.
Thanks.
I just bought a 5200mah Hyperion battery on Amazon for $22 shipped. I used a 4200mah Hyperion on my S3 and it worked like a champ!
I'm waiting for Gorilla Gadgets to release an extended battery for our S4. I'm using their 3500mah battery on my old S2 and it increased the screen time from 3 hrs & something to over 8 hrs.
What would be the price you expected for Gorilla gadget?
If it is similar, I may give it a try!!

When I bought it for the S2, it was around $25. I'd imagine that the new S4 one will probably sell for between $40 to $50.
when buying an extended battery, what are the things to look for to make sure you are getting a quality battery that's not worse than the stock one?
i bought mine on ebay. and waiting for it to arrive:good:

[Q] New battery, which one to choose between these?

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and I seem to face issues with the crappy stock battery, so I bought 3500maH battery and it works like a charm, however it is way to big, to bulky for my taste and as such I was planning on buying either a 1900maH Anker battery which you seem to like a lot guys, or one of these two:
- http://www.ebay.com/itm/KINPS-2450m...816538?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e76b86b9a
- http://www.ebay.ca/itm/MPJ-Battery-...hone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item4d11f0660f&_uhb=1
Which one do you think I should buy? I heard the Anker batteries don't overheat the device unlike the stock battery and some others, so I'm not sure whether I should go for the larger ones or the Ankers.
I have no experience with those two but I DO know Anker. They aren't Chinese, they are cheaper than those & they are realistically labeled for milli-amp/hours. (1900 MAh) ANKER....for SURE.......IMHO.
From what I've seen Anker has gone up in price. Anyone know a cheap source?
Also I think I read somewhere that Anker and ChiChiTec are the same batteries as well, just with different labelling, so I wonder if there's another same cheaper marketed battery
There are several battery threads over in "Accessories". Personally I read them all a couple of months ago then bought a gold battery from the "2450mAh gold slim" thread. Found on ebay the Japanese-manufactured that people had had better experiences with, bought it, and found (admittedly not 2450mAh) but longer battery life and far fewer brown-out random reboots. The difference was so stark, I went back a few days later and bought a second!

Yep, thanks for all your opinions guys, I will try to buy them both to compare them, if that's not possible though since my dad is the one buying them Ill try out the 2400mAh one, I just can't trust a product like Anker, I mean it it just about 25% bigger than the stock battery, it must be a trusty little battery but I'm pretty sure it won't make any miracles happen, I'm a heavy user and I make my 3500mAh battery last about 7 or 8 hours, so I think I will go for the big one. Thanks again guys for all your opinions. Really appreciated.
I bought an Anker for my mt4gs and it FAR outperformed the stock battery. I bought two and they came with a stand alone charger. So awesome were they that I bought Ankers for my Note 2. The stock Samsung battery hasn't been in the phone for 6 months. I haven't seen a downside yet after 2 years.

Replacement battery for HTC Saga (India)

Hey Guys,
I know this has been asked a lot of times already, but all those links point to international sites. There are a number of batteries available on ebay.in but I'm really skeptical about them.
So I was wondering if any one of you have bought one of those or from any other source and satisfied with the battery, would you please share the links?
I might buy a new phone eventually, but I want to keep this one alive It's not easy to give up on this guy!
:good:

Well if you are going for quality, buy an original one. Just google htc store. If you want something propably better go for mugen. These are expensive choices. If you want something cheap there's no big difference really, or no tests availble, so just buy the one that has the color you like.
I got my replacement battery and it has 4hours + of screen on time, which is sufficient till the next charge and enough to last me a day with heavy usage, Epower. But i think i got a bad bargain, seems a bit pricy, but more than a few months now, and the battery seems durable and it didnt explode
Someone please provide a link to any trusted product. And it should be available in India.
I bought one from eBay which supposed to be original but the new battery got quickly discharged after a few cycles and now it is also inflated. In need of a good battery.
Thanks for the help in advance.
Go to ebay and search "Replacement 2450mAh Battery for HTC Incredible S G11 Desire S G12 A7272 DesireZ" I have this one from hi-etech. No problems at all.

It isn't available in eBay India. And wherever it is available, the shipping costs are more than the product's cost.
Thank though! ☺
I bought a 2450 mAh GOLD BATTERY from eBay back in September 2013, it's still going strong. The battery was made in Japan but I bought it from a UK seller (as I live in the UK). I believe it says it's for the Desire Z on it, but both phones use the same batteries so it's fine.
So, were anyone of you able to get a replacement battery in India? Links will be really helpful!
