So this (http://www.htcexpress.com/batteries...-battery-sprint-verizon-incredible-droid.html) seems to be one of the best batteries aroung as well as the Mugen 1800mah. My question is, while Mugen should fit perfectly, I couldn't understand, after reading most of batteries thread till page 6, if the Chichitec need the label to be pulled out, someting to be cut, or fits perfectly.
Then, if something is needed, would there be any risk.
And the last thing, which one would be better in terms of runtime?
thanks
In the future, just drop your questions in the battery threads.
Using these batteries that are not meant for the G2 is fairly straightforward. The only truly necessary thing is to take the wrapper off of the battery, and then use a portion of it to cover up the part of the battery that would be touching the SD card slot in the phone; that's the only risk, the phone may short out if the two metals touch each other.
I believe both of them offer similar battery life; both stay true to their capacities, and are quality batteries. I bought the Anker 2-battery set and am very happy with it.
Going from stock to evo 4g battery then to a mugen 3600 mah, i would never go back. I dont give a crap about the bulk when I can play n64oid for an hour or two a day without any scare ill run out of battery. Without emulators I hit about 65-70% when I lay down at night. With stock I would hit 20% or so at night.

How do the Anker 2battery from amazon compare to the stock battery? Does it last much longer?
Since this thread was already bumped...
Can someone gimme a link to, or tell me where to find this huge "Battery Thread" that I see people keep referring to? I've searched and looked all over, and I find all kinds of battery related threads, but don't think I've come across the "epic" battery thread. It should probably be a sticky... then again, since I'm a noob, for all I know it probably is.
I don't understand why people would still buy the chichi battery when you need to modify, clip tape, etc. if you can just buy the Mugen which fits perfectly. I think people originally bought the chichi battery because there wasn't an extended one yet for the G2, but now you've got lots of options.
Plus, the one and only time I ever bought anything from chichi tec I had to return it and they wouldn't answer any emails and don't have a phone to call, I had to file a claim in PayPal before I could get a refund for my "guaranteed return".
i've had an awesome experiance with chichitec i plan on buying another perhaps mugen though more expensive, and really, seriously, the modifications are a joke, took me 15 seconds to do....anyone who complains about that should get over it. You are on a forum where we modify, hack, and otherwise tweak and customize our phones way beyond what the manufacturer intended so taking the label off a battery is just too easy a mod to complain about lol. Anyways never used a mugen but i get 25 hours plus moderate use with my chichitec so zero complaints here, especially when they are dirt cheap.
Check this one: GOLD BATTERY
...Im not sure but I think somebody else has posted this link in another thread.
I will go for this one myself, as I do hate my HTC DZ not lasting more than a day, but I would dread making it twice as thick! ...this battery (despite the alleged huge capacity 2430 mAh!! ) manages to maintain the original/OEM battery size...

ordered it @ weekend (And early in monday i got mail that said my order got dispatched), its been one full week now. Haven't seen it yet, hoped it would come last Friday, but no. if i don't see it this week, going to start asking some questions and getting my money back.
Also found that local store sells some kind 1500MAh batteries for DZ, might just grab one of those. Looks like it's X-power.

...mmmh... OK, I'll wait and see what happens too. By the way, be ware of the 1500mAh - I got one myself a while back, and upon realizing it wasnt making any difference, I got it checked, and it turned up to be a standard 1300 despite what the sticker said!

Just got mine delivered! ...cant wait to get back home and test it....
remember to wipe battery stats, and do few full charge/discharge cycles, and after a week we'll see if its actually any good
Got my g2x last week and the battery is horrendous. Seems like there's no way around it unless I root my phone. Don't really feel like rooting my phone because I have never done it before and don't want to brick it. At this point, I'd rather carry a replacement battery. I'm looking for something that will provide at least an extra 5 hours of use.
I was looking on ebay and found some that come with a charger and 2-3 batteries. Anyone know how long these last?
I think it would help if you posted link to the batteries you have in mind. Unless all replacement batteries are the same nowadays.
But seriously, its not that hard to root your phone. And if you use the Bionic Reloaded v3 ROM, you'll get the official taste of Gingerbread, with great improvements.

This phone is almost unbrickable, follow instructions (which seems to be the part that people have trouble with) and you'll be fine.

Also, I would reccomend the 3500 MAh battery mentioned in the accessory section, got mine from Texas and it works great, no temp sensor though.

The 3500 Mah battery will make the phone bigger, but you will be able to run for hours on end.
Thanks for the replies. I couldn't post links cause I'm a new member. I ended up getting some chichitec replacement batteries shortly after creating this thread. I'll probably be rooting my phone later.
They are ok
Eversince I got my G2x about a year ago, I have been using a replacement battery. The same thing that you see in ebay. For some reason I don't feel like using the battery that came with it. They are ok. If they are not the same quality with oem, they are at most 8% lesser in quality than the oem. I have been buying extra battery on ebay since my G1 then my nexus1 then to my G2X. They are cheap and they are good. You can never go wrong with it.

+1 on the 3500 mah, i seen a thread regarding the one sold on ebay with great feedback. personally i use Gorilla Gadgets 3500mah and easily get an extra half days worth of juice. and im constantly on my phone texting, webing, gpsing, calling, xdaing (lol), etc.etc..
Yep I'm a beleiver in the G2X XL haha no plastic covering the lens takes waaaaay better pics and video. The cheap battery I got gives me substantial gains in life.I've had it for a couple months so far and it didnt blow up yet..
.to my surprise haha

I think having root access should be in every Android phone, its what makes it different from iOS.
The thing with the bigger batteries, which I have and are amazing, is that you can't put a cover on them. I recently dropped my phone and cracked the screen since I was using the extended battery as well. I am replacing the glass myself but I would try a slim extended battery since you can use a phone case.
Andida 1980 is the one I'm using. It works well. I haven't tried the Chic batteries yet.
I recommend rooting as well as its super easy and Bionix is so much better than Stock 2.3 while still being stock 2.3 =D

Are you talking about the ones from a brand named Ferocity? I bought a set of two batteries and a charger and everything runs well. I believe the batteries hold just as much charge as the stock LG one. Still, I'd recommend rooting your phone and putting a custom Kernel onto it.

This doesn't seem like a run of the mill chinese cheap battery. Packaging looks very professional and the company itself has amazing ratings. I would say this is a pretty safe buy. Its a company that designs the batteries in canada.
And with amazon you're well proctected. Ebay tends to always back the buyer up as well, but I always felt amazon was more legit. I have no need to ugly up my phone with a massive battery, nor do I need the extended time (stock battery suits me fine) but for someone that can't shell out a lot of money this seems like a solid deal

Yes and no. I bought a Mugen from amazon, and everything went fine. It died after about 3.5 months, and Mugen wouldn't replace it because I didn't buy direct from them.
So, most reputable companies who sell direct on amazon are OK. Mugen doesn't sell direct, so avoid them on amazon.
I'd like to see how badly this battery bulges out the phone. I've seen pictures of the galaxy note with this battery, and it looks... big.
I'm willing to test it out. I placed the order and I'll report back once I get it.

That's probably the exception. I've never had a bad experience when returning an item through Amazon.

Hmm... I don't see any reviews for the product. I'd buy it but the price worries me for how cheap it is. I mean... I like cheap, but... there are no reviews to be found which worries me.
Here is my thing about batteries. Last summer when I was on the hunt for an amazing lipo battery that would make my rc car run the fastest,coolest, longest right. Well them batteries were about 60 bucks, but what I had found through my research was there were only about 4 companies world wide who produce lipo-cells, so why waste 60 bucks when I could get a 2-cell for 12 bucks. Well it only lasted the summer because I wasn't very responable with it but its perfomance was on par with the more expensive batteries and so was temp ect. It don't have to cost the most the be effective, sometimes I feel this blacknightavalon works for mugen, because I promise you people 100 for a phone battery, they seen you coming

And yeah, I've no doubt Mugen makes good batteries. But the fact that you *must* buy from them and nowhere else in order to get any sort of service makes them a bit shady.

I would never move to f**king China. Not unless they got rid of their Maoist regime. No, I just know a good battery when I'm using one, and I think the Ankers are pretty good too (as long as you order the two-pack with the wall charger).
The battery cover in the Amazon picture is clearly not for a MT4GS, but maybe it's just the stock photo they use for all this company's batteries.
Anyhow, for $20, I took a chance.
The company as a whole seems to make quality batteries, so I doubt they would skimp on our phone. And it is an actual company, not a "no name generic" battery. And as I said before, if you look up batteries for other phones from the same company, they generally have great reviews
Good point on the picture. That battery cover does not seem to fit our phone, which means the picture is a stock picture.

Personally, I'd go for a slim extended battery if they offered it, otherwise it won't work with the dock. Still, if this works well, for 20 bucks it's a no-brainer.

I've been looking for a cheap extended battery since I ditched the G2. I had a $15 3500mAh eBay battery on it and it worked just fine. I'll probably order this after I hear what y'all have to say about it.
Battery Monitor Widget Pro now suggests I'm getting 1700mAh or less, should I replace the battery? If so, pay someone or do it myself? I've heard it's pretty simple to do it myself.
Its very doable. If youre up to it, i read in another thread today that when replacing your battery you should be careful because it might be glued down hard, try to avoid straining the original battery.
According to a couple reviews from Google, replacing the battery is quite easy. A rule of thumb would be to get a battery pulled from a new device since I don't think Google sells manufactured Nexus 4 batteries because it's "non-replaceable". Just be careful and follow a guide on Youtube.

Google doesn't sell batteries, nor do they make phones. The Nexus 4 is made by LG, and the battery is available from many sources, brand new, OEM. Not "pulled from a new device". That's just absurd. Same battery the Optimus G uses. Don't pay more than $20 or so.
Are those values from Battery Monitor Widget Pro reliable? Because mine is showing ~1500 mAh

LG*. My mistake. However, I have searched for batteries for the Nexus 4 that are claimed to be "OEM" and according to reviews they never hold a full charge that a battery from out-of-the-box would hold. Apparently they are just listed as "OEM" and "New", but either have already been used or of poor build quality. Getting a battery "pulled from a new device" off eBay has proven for me for other devices to be much more reliable at holding a longer charge. I can see why it might be risky or slightly unreasonable, but I don't think that it is absurd.

I wish they were were. Because on my phone, that app reads my battery as having 2099000mAh. Apparently the OEM battery I got off eBay is actually powered by Uranium 238. Too bad the real world usage doesn't confirm that theory.

Finding a Nexus4 good quality battery is a real challenge in my experience. The one currently in my nexus4 is supposed to be an OEM, but obviously it is not (*very* poor battery life). I contacted LG and they tell me that I cannot get this part from LG, they don't sell it
If anyone has tips, I would be very grateful

As much as I hate to admit it, I don't think we will. Our phones battery is not removable and it was never intended by LG for it to be replaced. Which means that the only batteries we are gonna get is dodgy ones probably. The last thing I need is buying an 'original', battery and waking up the next morning to find a burnt hole where my phone once was :good:

Well, I just replaced my battery with this one: http://www.amazon.de/Akku-BL-T5-Goo...8&qid=1412345320&sr=8-1&keywords=nexus+4+akku
I am sorry, that the page is German - but you can see, that the selling shop is the official LG Electronics Shop on Amazon
thought these phones use a polymer battery which has a very high charge and discharge cycle.
You can try checking your local LG service center if they have it. That is where I got mine for about $25, but I'm in Thailand though so YMMV.
I was thinking of getting the One Plus 6 (or 6T). It would be my first phone with no (user) replaceable battery, which concerns me, as I like to keep my phones for a long time. (My current phone is a Galaxy S5.) With my previous phones, I would buy replacement batteries when the original ones started to hold less charge.
So, my question is how hard is it to get the battery replaced, more specifically in the US? Does anyone know the approximate cost and where to send it?

That's the price for a replacement if you send it to OnePlus.

Do you know who could replace the battery after we get the part? I've seen a video and it doesn't seem hard, but I'd be more comfortable letting someone who knows what their doing do the job...

there is a video on this.... it includes a link to all parts needed and seems pretty straight forward.
I'll tell you from personal experience, it's much harder then it may seem on the videos. I swapped the back cover on my Gunmetal 3t, and wasn't worth it to be honest. Would be worth the few extra dollars to have OnePlus do it instead
I believe there's a service center in tx
Again:
Where can i buy original battery for OP6?
UP!
Any place here to buy original OP6 battery?
Want reserve one for 3 years from now replace....
I'm sorry to give this thread with a shovel...
But i was searching around and did not find this answer anywhere... Could a op6T battery fit in a op6? Could the op6 take advantage of the extra juice?
Thank you in advance!
Boa pergunta...
