It must have. The guy was so excited he posted he made the exact same post on android central and didn't update either... My guess is that means it either caused zero issues and thus had no reason to come back and report... or it fried his phone and he couldn't come back and report.

There are some batteries with special back covers, the battery kind of sticks out.

Does yours actually last longer than normal 1500mAH? Because according to this test they mostly get between 900 and 1350mAH
i can't say in long therm cuz i don't have battery for half year just 2 months and sure it does last longer =)

By how much it is better than the stock battery? After how much you need to recharge it in both moderate and heavy usage?

Yep, me too. One thing I have noticed about batteries (cheap extra ones or the originals) is that if they give any kind problem I clean the contacts. I use the pointy end of a penknife or similar to carefully scrape the surface clean. same goes for both the phone and charger contacts.

Anyone got more info? Just bought this battery for thr o3x.
Use this battery now for weeks and it seems as it is a lil improved battery life wise. From a 10 hour use I could squeeze with those battery pack 12 to 15 hours. Still not acceptable but hey 2hours more is 2 hours more

Is this battery safe for the phone
Is this battery safe for the phone circuit? I mean damage caused by over current or over voltage? Does the battery comes with any warranty? Definitely the battery warranty should not cover damage caused by battery to the phone? I do not want to put my phone in risk for just some extra time.

Don't know if I just got a bad battery or what, but I bought one of these and the battery life is aboslutely terrible. I put it in the phone, left it switched off and charging for a solid 8 hours, then tried to use it. With Bluetooth on, WiFi off and the phone just sitting in standby it barely lasted 6-7 hours before I was getting battery warnings. I let it charge up again, thinking it might take a few charges/discharges for the battery to work correctly, but the next discharge was even shorter!
Did you wipe your battery stats when you changed for different sized batteries ?
Hi everyone. I'm a bit of a noob but anyway I wanted to buy the following battery from eBay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/230803704348?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
I was wondering if anyone has a similar battery and if they noticed any improvements over the stock 1450mAh battery
Thanks
To be honest they could write 2500mAh and atill it can be worse than the stock one. For me it looks like a risky business.

I think you could be right but I've ordered it now. £5 isn't a lot of money but the seller accepts returns luckily.

Right. I've got a problem. The extended battery won't charge and I get a warning message saying the battery is using more power than the charger can provide, I've tried with 4 different chargers and it won't charge but the stock battery is fine. If it's on it just stops charging and when it's off, I just get an orange flashing light. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi, I found your post simply because I ran across the exact same battery and just as you was thinking of buying it.
I was wondering if you had any luck resolving your issues with charging the battery? And if not, did you also remove the yellow tape near the electrode, as they write in the ebay add? Because to me that sounds like the kind of thing that might screw up the charging otherwise...
Cheers.

I can't remember how much I paid but it's excellent. Check the Accessories section, I made a thread there
I bought a "Polarcell" battery on ebay and have a real good experience with it. It says 1600mAh. With Jelly Bean (MIUIzero) and the new battery my phone now always runs for a whole day sometimes 1.5 days. This really surprised me because on some early JB roms and with the old battery the phone was always dead in the evening.
Hi,
My original battery is no longer retaining the charge, and is draining too quickly.
could you please recommend a good replacement battery that will fit in the standard case.
cheers

Hey guys my phone after upgrading to 5.0.1 and 5.1.1 keep dying at 15%
Do I need a new battery? Is there a way for me to fix my battery stats so I can get more accurate readings that are closer to actual life left on the battery?
What would you guys recommend for a replacement battery?/brand

I had that issue and had to replace my battery. I was able to get a Samsung one on amazon but that was about 6 months ago. The new battery works fine. I tried using the old battery and it still does the same thing, dies between 15-20%.

Same here,
OP get a new one for $10 off amazon and call it good :good:
I just looked and the power bear one I bought from amazon is no longer prime eligible and is $19. I'm guessing any one you buy is going to be better than the original.

yeah but i got it for $10 with free prime shipping and I would guess you could get a different one of similar quality for $10. I've had it for about a month I was going through the same thing as you but it was getting worse it would shutdown and drop to 0% randomly when it said 35% . This new battery doesn't do that at all seems to last through the day quite well fast charging works fine... If it is important to you this battery does not have the NFC chip for google wallet and other stuff.

Which vendor did you buy it from, can you check. I wouldn't think its directly from Amazon.
Does your battery have to have an NFC chip in order to do NFC stuff? I always wanted to try Anroid/Google pay

Was sold by PowerBear LLC and fulfilled by Amazon and yes I believe the battery needs the nfc chip on this phone but I don't use it so I'm not 100% sure
