MPJ 3000mAh Li-ion Replacement Battery For LG - LG V10 Accessories

Got this as a spare for my LG V10, it works at least as well as the original battery, same time charging, handled 2 days heavier than usual usage :good:
http://goo.gl/HrG5Rn

Yeah that brand is pretty good

LG original battery with MM H96220a drained 4-5% over night, the night I got it the MPJ drained 3%, next day I installed MM 20b and it drained 2%, next night again 3%, I assumed it was the new MM having a more efficient DOZE function
Last night I tested with the original battery and it drained 4%, so it is the new battery, I wonder why, the original only had 6 months use

I dont play games nor music (usually), otherwise I use the phone instead of the PC except in the morning :good:

Yeah I would take it for standed usage but for gaming? Forget it! You'll need a big battery for gaming.

my org. Lg bat. holds about 3h SOT...no gaming, wifi, sincr., mobile data - always on...screen brightness 50 %...

That's good but try with the battery charger cause I got 5HRs with my G4

Still recommend this battery? I need a few more.

Yeah i'd say get 2 even though i have a G4 but they make it for it

Yeah I have been using the Zerolemon battery case but it sucks because the phone never realised the full size of the batteries. I have an MPJ charger and am going to order another one and some of their batteries and a different case.

Of course not. The battery's capacity is kept in the kernel @3000mah like the G4 and All other Phones

I'm just an end user. I previously owned Nexus devices and changed ROM and kernel before but I don't really know a whole great deal I'm just good at following directions.

I wonder about this. The V10 batteries have 4 contacts on them. That is the right number for the 2 extras to be either SMBus or I2C. If so, then the battery should be able to tell the OS its actual size, but as you state it could be hardwired not to believe anything more. This would be a tragedy as being able to report a true battery capacity that is greater than the original would be valuable.
A more likely theory is the battery manufacturer used the exact same IC, wired/programmed identically to LG's and thus it reports 3000mAh. A bit more time on their part and it likely could have reported its true capacity. A noticeable loss either way.

I like your info. But what's the contacts have to do with the capacity? Also I believe that somewhere in the kernels.txt file we could edit the capacity to whatever number we'd like

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.
Pete
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 ?

Anker Battery great success

http://www.amazon.com/Anker-1600mAh...9A/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1318871003&sr=8-15
Bought it and my battery life is very good now, I can actually power use my phone without worried about battery. I played fruit ninja and played music via 3g with the speakers for more than an hour and loss like 15% percent battery. Went to bed with the battery at 12% and when I woke up it was at 8%. I can't get you any technical specs but the battery is alot better than stock, and for the price you can't go wrong.
Bought these batteries but after pretty extensive testing, I've got to say that any actual difference is marginal at best. Battery Monitor Widget measures them at nearly the same capacity as the original...the best figure it gave was ~1300mAh but accounting for the % error that's likely a bit overstated. Bottom line...you get two batteries on par w/ stock for a good price...just don't expect any real performance difference between a new stock battery and an Anker.
I too purchased this set of anker batteries and charger. But picked up on ebay for even less from the same amazon dealer. Also I needed the charger to charge batteries for older phones that used a proprietory charger that I didn't have. My stock HTC battery just wasn't keeping up after only a few months old. Maybe it says something for the quality of the OEM battery. Who knows. But after 2 weeks of using one of these batteries the difference is still night and day for me. Charge lasts much longer than my 6 month old OEM battery. Whether they are better/worse than a NEW OEM battery I can't say. But for the price and after running one for 2 weeks I definitely give them 2 thumbs up.
I highly doubt these are 1600 mah, it's probably closer to the stock battery.
You guys are comparing a heavily used stock battery to these new ones. What you should be comparing is a new stock battery vs these and you'd probably end up seeing very little difference.
I agree, I bought the same batteries and I wouldnt say the power was what I expected. I wouldnt say they are worth the price, rather just practice good battery management with the proper settings over the battery.

Well I just got them for Christmas (gosh I love ordering my own gifts from time to time Haha) and Will give a review after I charge one up tonight and give it a few days use. I can say that I got this phone in March and battery monitor widget consistently measures actual capacity between 986 and 1081 mAh. So OEM battery durability seems to be pretty crappy. Fingers crossed for the new ones!
Also, the stock battery in the last month has still been awful with the battery management technique of "put it on the table and do something else while leaving it in idle mode with data connection off"
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
News is good! This battery tests at around 1500 mAh, as expected short of the advertised 1600, but far better than the older stock battery! After 5 hrs 5 mins on battery with fairly light use, I have 83% battery left.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
I got one of those on the 25th too. The first couple of days were moderatly light use until I got home from work. Then it was more. Got 26+/- hours out of each charge. Lots better than stock battery that was down to 5% usually after a 10 hr day with the same amount of usage
I wonder how the performance of the battery last over time. As in does the quality compare to that of the stock? So far my stock battery has a charge of about 8 hours on a good charge with moderate use anand its about a year old. How do these compare?
Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G using XDA App
We shall know in a few weeks/months/Kardashians (you know, 72 days). We will keep you posted man! As terrible as quality was on stock, I don't see how it could get much worse. This battery peaks out aroun 27 degrees Celsius when charging during use and stock would hit 34 degrees consistently.
Have to report that my Anker batteries are still doing great. Battery monitor still reporting both around 1475. I find myself not charging the battery overnight sometimes since I still have a decent charge left. And as someone mentioned it isn't fair to compair these new batteries to a failing stock battery. Stock battery was ONLY 7 months old (not good at all). It too is made in china. You can purchase 2 anker batteries and a universal charger for half the price of an oem replacement battery. Never expected the anker batteries to be 1600. How about someone with a fairly new oem battery and using battery monitor report the mAh they get.

As from previous experience, It is not a big deal if they are less than 1600mah, so is the case of OEM batteries.
Or a quick Google search will show batteries with much less capacity selling for a lot more.

mine is what i would consider fairly new and battery moniter reports the total mah to be 1230mAh stock OEM htc battery that came with my inspire and i get usually a day and half out of normal use
I have had my batteries for about 2 1/2 months now. Still getting 1470 on average out of each. I switch them every 2 weeks just to keep them fresh.
Great news, I'll be buying these batteries soon then
Just got these myself yesterday. Granted I've only had them one day they have been great and are equal if not better than my original battery. Again this is only after one day use so hopefully it stays the same.
But so far I have 4.25 hours of on-screen time
30 min of GPS with imapmyrun
30 min of Pandora(for my run)
Total time: 1day 2 hours and have about 7 percent left
Wifi and GPS were always on even when not in use. Regular setup of gmail, and yahoo to push my emails
I hope you guys are aware of how lithium ion's work... which these are. I'm positive someone has already said this in some other section, but it should be known as this applies to practically all phones.
Deep discharging frequently will damage the batteries, best not to run these batteries all the way down just because you can....
Heat will kill the batteries quicker than just about anything you throw at it. When you guys deep discharge and have a prolonged recharging time the phone does get hot, also leaving the phone/battery in a hot summer car... well...
Time is another issue. The batteries degrade with time/age, whether you use them or not. If a seller is selling you a "new" battery that's been sitting on their shelf for a couple of years, you're going to get a gimped battery despite it being "new".
I recently got a couple of these batteries, charged them with the wall charger then when i put them into phone, didn't work phone saw them as at 0% and switched off , (yes made sure i put them in the right way.)

Original battery

Hi,
The battery on my Tab S is goosed, anyone know where I can source an original? I don't want to go to the hassle of replacing it with a fake from eBay/Amazon etc.
I got this one for myself...

Hi, I'm also looking into this. How did it work out for you?
I just installed the battery Neozen21 mentioned today. Went in without problems. It was 62% charged right out of the box, so I suspect it is fairly fresh.
It took much longer to charge than the old one did, so I have high hopes that the original capacity has been restored.

A fresh quality battery in these Galaxy tabs takes twice the time to charge the first time they are run straight out of the box. After that, the charge will settle to normal, especially if you charge/discharge properly as much as is possible.

All credit to Neozen21 if this turns out to be the real deal -- which leads me to the point: How is it working out? I find the best test of a decent twin cell solution (like the battery in the S 10.5) is to turn it off, charge to 100%, disconnect the charger and then see how much charge the battery reports if you power it on (or reconnect the charger) after 1 day. If it reports anything less than 99%, it's going to drain abnormally quickly.

It seems to be marginally better, although not dramatically so.
I've run AccuBattery Pro on the new battery, and it says that design capacity is 7900 mAh, estimated capacity is 7450 mAh. Unfortunately, I did not run the app on the old battery before replacing it, so I have no comparison.
I'm glad I didn't spend a lot of money on the battery...

Extended battery 11800MAH for the NOTE 4

Hi everyone,
i just wanted to share my experience with a battery from TQTHL built with the latest 2017 battery technology.
it's the most powerful battery i've ever seen for the note 4, insane 11800mah and when i tested it i got 12130MAH out of that battery so even more than the claimed 11800mah.
i tried the zerolemom 10000mah and the hyperion 9600mah but so far this is the best battery i've tested.
the battery comes with NFC and a good case cover...
just google TQTHL 11800mah or you can see a youtube video testing too
UPDATE 10/08/2017
check post 30 below for screenshots and insane battery settings
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73299611&postcount=30
Overall the note 4 is the only phone capable of having this battery life, i got 6 days of normal usage out of that battery.
Thank you, could you post som pictures for battery and SOT ?

I actually just got that battery. Can you please walk me through your settings?
@aminofgodseeker I'm currently on the MoDestRom v9 ROM, and am using the ZeroLemon battery. I'm on my second ZeroLemon, as my first one seemed to not be charging/discharging correctly any longer. I bought it maybe a month and a half ago and I recently just discovered this battery. Wish I had waited.
My ZeroLemon battery, I've drained it to 0% while on this ROM, and the ROM author had released a kernel that supports the ZeroLemon battery. It seems to calibrate well, as there are no 1% issues. I wouldn't know if the same setup would work for this higher capacity or not.
To give you an idea of how well my ZeroLemon battery worked one day, I essentially unplugged my phone at 7:30 am, used it more or less for 4 hours just searching the internet and then playing offline games while i was on a 2 hour plane ride, and then using it for another 5 hours for a car triip (with Google Maps). 15 hours later of extremely heavy usage, full screen brightness, not being plugged into power, I was down to 21%. I doubt a stock battery can handle that. Not only that, prior to the Verizon variant being unlocked, I'm pretty sure I would've gotten to 3% much sooner, had to deal with the dimming, and I would've survived on 1% for a very long time.
So maybe give that ROM a shot if you have this battery and see what you think. I'm sure if there was enough interest, if necessary, the author would modify his kernel to work with this battery.
Beware This battery doesnt have the NFC chip. My battery is going back to Amazon.
Does anyone know of a reseller who will ship to Australia? Everyone I've found so far seems to be US-only and my Zerolemon is dangerously bulging!
I'm very curious about this battery. Can that has this battery tell me, how loose the charging cable connector is when using this battery? I'm on the ZeroLemon battery at the moment, and while the battery works fine, the charging port isn't very secure, as the insides are wobbly.

There is no reason for the battery to have any effect on the USB socket of your phone. I also have the Zerolemon battery on my Note4. The case that comes with this battery gives you full access to the charging port without any obstructions.

Like I said before, there is no effect on the charging socket of your phone when using one of these batteries with their case. It is impossible for the battery to cause your charging port to feel or become loose. Something else is wrong with your phone. It's not the battery.
Can somebody else test the NFC in the battery?

Not a precise measurement. Orginal runs about a day. This one half a day with not much activity. It has a jump from 30% to zero. I had several full charges/ discharges before. And several attempts in trying.
lithium batteries should be kept between 30 and 90 %. It's worse to discharge them.
You could charge to only 80% but 90% is where on most phones the battery statistics reset

Sure, these are recommended usage conditions. But jump from 30% to 0% likely means defective battery, which cannot hold its capacity.
Normal battery should go smooth from 100% to 0%. Well, it may be not a straight line, but under constant average load graph should be near linear.
If it's jumping and suddendly goes 0% it's something wrong with battery. You may still try to calibrate it by full discharge/full charge several times,
but high quality batteries usually don't require it. Also I think high capacity battery must be thicker than original. If not, it's most likely a fake.

Yea, I know. I agree
anyone found a decent battery yet? For Hiking I tend not to carry a heavy powerbank (even not a light one) but a spare lightweight battery... I do not understand why Lenovo is providing a changeable battery but not selling any...
Sorry, been away without notifications. Ran battery for several weeks and notice no significant increase in battery life - had screenshots of usage but unfortunately had a bad flash (Dont use SD as internal storage).
Decided to stick with the OEM battery, and will continue purchasing them if they go out or need to swap. Because of build quality, coping with a dead phone is better than one on fire or overheating.
But if Motorola or Anker releases an extended slim battery...
