OnePlus One Battery replacement query - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi in all phones with a non removable battery, there's a worry of how long the battery will last before it expires and needs to be changed.
In my case the OnePlus One is still a really phone and I can't help but come back to it every time. But I do worry that one day I'll face the stress of having to get the battery replaced. The One is over 2 years old now so the worry is strong in mind.
I was wondering if someone could please help me with this with there knowledge and provide closure to lessen the worry. Sorry this post is long.

There are definitely kits in existence that will let you replace the battery. Alibaba has them in stock frequently.

i need help

ok guys i really need your help/opinions. my mytouch4gslide has recently been overheating while just casualy using it (facebook,twiitter,minor games,etc). and 2 days ago it started having horrible battery life it goes down 1 or 2 percent every minute or two. and also ive been trying alot of diffrent roms and im still trying each one out again but the problem is still there.before i was with tmobile i had an optimus v for virginmobile and the battery lasted much longer and it wouldnt overheat like this. im really tempted to send this to htc and get it fixed?replaced but i really cant wait two weeks without a phone. so guys tell me if this has ever happened to you or what i should do, i wish i still have the tmobile asurion insurence but i thought it was useless and canceled it last month, what shoudl i do?
o and i bought this piece of crap from tmobile for 500 dollers no sh!t and im still paying for it so i would really like it for it to get fixed
Yea, that's how much I paid for my first one too - well, still paying for...
Did you get insurance with your plan? Not sure if it covers the battery - but it did come with it, so I don't see why not.
Maybe take it in-store and see if you can get a manager or someone who could swap your battery out? Not sure if it works like that.
I'd be leaning towards the battery being shot, or on it's way there.
If it's overheating a lot, then it's just damaging the battery further - but it's also a sign of damage to the battery itself. Some of the cells are burnt out or malfunctioning and preventing/blocking/impeding or somehow just jamming up the electricity transfer in and out of the battery.
If you do an insurance claim, (if you got it with your plan) they ship you a new phone and when it comes in, you send your old one back. Think you have like 7 days to decide if you want the new one or keep the old one.
That would at least give you two batteries to test back and forth and see if it really is a battery problem (but that's the most likely answer)
You might consider getting an aftermarket battery?
On my second phone I swap out between the two HTC batteries I have, and in my plan phone I have the Anker battery I got. The Anker never gets as hot as the stock battery (either one) for the same workload, and I can push the device with the Anker to do much, much more then the one with the stock battery.
----
I did do an HTC warranty repair on my second device, and I had to ship it back, they fixed, and sent it back to me. Didn't take that long, less then 13 days (probably by a few days) I could look up my records and find out exactly how many days I didn't have it including my shipping to them - but once they had it, it was speedy service.
The HTC people were an absolute pleasure to deal with on the phone, extremely helpful and taking the time to patiently answer all of my questions or look up accurate answers if need be (and they had to a few times, but you could imagine the grilling of questions I gave an HTC rep since I was on the line with them already)
Definitely seperated themselves from the vast majority of companies i've dealt with for customer service issues (beyond phones into other stuff too)
So past making some awesome tech the people behind it have been fantastic in my experience.
(even if they do make a ****ty battery they should be ashamed of - phone company, not a battery company, but the quality of the battery is way out of spec for the device it's in )
----
Sorry to hear about your troubles, but I have a feeling that people are going to start following you who have been using the stock battery for as long as you have.
It generates too much heat, is too inefficient, and that makes it break down faster and die quicker. The more it dies, the less efficient it gets, and the quicker it reaches the end of it's service life.
If I were in your shoes, i'd call the battery shot and start worrying about what that amount of heat is doing to the device itself, specifically its Snapdragon processor. Heat is enemy numbers 1, 2 and 3 for the processor, especially one pushing the limits of it's design like the Snapdragon does.
If you are running an OC kernel, i'd stop that immediately. Hopefully you aren't or haven't been.
----
I'd say go to a T-Mo store and start there, do an HTC direct warranty replace as a last resort and consider an aftermarket battery.
The Mugen batteries are unquestionably higher quality then the Anker batteries, but much pricier too.
The Anker battery is far and away better then the garbage stock battery - so even that would be a step up and it's what I run and like using.
(when I can afford to i'm gonna step up to the Mugen battery and gift the Anker to my second phone)
If I were you i'd overnight an Anker battery and stop in a T-Mo store tomorrow to see what your options were and how they were going to make it right for you.
Worst case is an HTC warranty, it's still in the warranty period, the phone hasn't been out for a year yet. I know that's the least desirable option, but if you do have to go that route make sure to mention how the heat has probably damaged the phone itself and they should have a tech or two go over the whole thing with a fine tooth comb. That heat against the processor has really shortened the lifespan of your device.
I say this because sometimes I put down my second phone and turn it off to save it from the heat of a functioning stock battery - a broken one would be a lot more of a concern.
Wish I could say something more positive, but while you are in warranty and have options is not the time to ignore issues that could bite you later.
Edit:
Especially since this is clearly not your fault - you are using the battery provided to you with the device itself, and that is now malfunctioning. You didn't do anything to cause this, it's either dumb luck with an even worse battery then normal that HTC themselves provided you, or you are the first of more who are hitting the end of service life on the battery the device came with.
It sucks that the worse it gets, the more quickly the problem gets worse. It's a vicious cycle that there is no way out of, because just using the battery breaks it more.
Even if you have to be without a phone for a week because you have to ship it back to HTC (worst case scenario from your point of view, since you have no device in the meantime) they'll make it right for you. This device is too awesome, and costs too much money, to settle for something that's defective - especially since it's not something you did, just the way it came.
Let's just hope for everyone's sake you got a particularly bad battery and this doesn't turn into an epidemic. Because the overheating of the battery basically breaks it more and more quickly, this is about the right amount of time for them to start crapping out if you got it within the first month of launch.
(based on the ludicrous - yet identical - amount of heat i've been experiencing from two stock batteries is where i'm framing this fear from)
Edit again:
Sorry, noticed you said you cancelled insurance, i'm pretty tired, but i'll leave what I said in case it helps someone - I wouldn't hesitate to call up HTC and file a manufacturers warranty claim, it should be covered since it's their branded battery that failed. I definitely give them a very high rating for customer service from my experience - I have nothing but good things to say about them to anyone who will listen.
The anker battery definitely will cool down your device. It seems like our stock battery takes a sh*t after about 3 months... Once I got the anker battery I loved the phone so much more, I recommended it to all my friends with sensations/mt4gs phones.
My one friend ended up getting himself 3 ankers, so he always keeps one on the wall charger, one in the phone, and one fully charged in his pocket. He doesn't even plug the phone into the wall anymore. If you do something like him, your phone will also avoid the heat involved with charging via usb

Well, you trade wear and tear of one part for wear and tear on another. The wear and tear on the USB jack is much, much worse then the wear and tear on the battery contacts.
The USB jack will wear out long before the battery contacts wear down.
The other part of it is every time you open the back of the device you expose the internals to dust and environmental contaminants.
I'd say as long as it's clean, not dusty or anything when you make the switch, that's the better way to go - as long as they are the same battery (which is what you said your friend had ... all good there)
The big thing would be to not make the switch outside. Try to do it indoors, in still air.
The most dust-free room of any house is most likely the bathroom. Limited to no carpeting and usually much less air space for things to be floating around in, close the window and give it ten minutes to settle first and that's probably the best location to do it. Especially if it's real tile, that's the absolute least opportunity for all the dust and fine particulates on the floor in the rest of the house to be present.
So your friends mode of operation (if when changing the battery conscious of dust and fine particle contamination) is probably the best method to stay charged and put the least wear on the device - except maybe an induction charging backplate.
The only problem with the induction charger is finding a case you can work on it with. I don't have one, but if it's the same size as the standard phone dimensions, then you could use the trident case and not scratch the device up taking it off an on (the trident case is mostly soft plastic and rubber, not hard and sharp plastic)
The downfall to the induction charger is you need a charge plate every where you go, so once you factor that liability in, what your friend is doing with 3 Ankers is probably the best method to keep the phone charged while doing as little damage to it through normal wear and tear possible.
Score a point for creativity and efficiency. I might change my mind about the Mugen and just get a few more Ankers to duplicate the method, after thinking about it. If there's a better way, why do anything else? That seems like it'd be worth buying the extra batteries for, i'll just pay attention and snipe some on sale.
Thanks for sharing, that's a happy tidbit of info and i'm definitely going to work towards implementing it. I want this device to last me as long as I can make it, and any way of taking better care of it or doing something like the battery swap method that just makes way more sense is always welcome to hear about.

I should've gone to sleep already since I have to get moving in just a few short hours - but after typing out my previous reply I figured i'd swap my stock battery since you shouldn't let them sit without being used for a long period of time.
(I wish I could charge the stock batteries out of the device, I could copy a shorter version of that method with my two stock batteries - oh well.)
Anyways, when I did, I noticed something. Each came with one of my devices, and they are both the same battery, but they are backwards. It looks like it was deliberate, too, because all the markings are correct for + / - and whatnot.
Don't know what to make of it, so I figured i'd share just to get the info out there in case it's of use to anyone - (for what, I have no idea) - but they both suck equally, so there's no benefit of less heat for one or the other, and they both last about the same amount of time near as I can tell without actually measuring.
Doesn't seem like one lasts longer then the other, and i'm pretty sensitive to that kind of stuff. If people are curious i'll measure them a couple of times each and see for sure, if not I won't waste my time when there's other work to do.
Anyways, I snapped some pictures of it to illustrate what I mean, since describing it would end up being confusing for some and i'm half delerious as it is.
They are both the same:
- brand = (HTC)
- model = (BG58100)
- Rating = (3.7VDC)
- Capacity = (1520 mAh)
- Watt Hours = (5.62Whr)
Different serial numbers, and Different part numbers.
The one that shows the writing/bar code side up when installed in the device is:
- part number 35H00150-00m
The one that shows the blank side up when installed in the device is:
- part number 35H00153-00m
Does anyone out there have any other part numbers for the stock batteries? I wonder how many versions there are and if there are any differences between them.
Two of my friends got this device after seeing all the cool stuff I could do with it and being less then impressed with the devices the rest of our/their friends had - they needed a hardware keyboard too so obviously this was the answer.
I will check their stock batteries and see what they are, if it's anything different i'll post that too - might take a few days or so to get ahold of them and find out.
I should have noticed this a long time ago. Anyways, here's the pics to illustrate the outward differences:
no worrys i just charged my phone all night and its workin good again, and i do have anker. im on your bulletproof rom and ive been off the charger for an hour and ive been texting and playing games and its still at 100 percent
Blue if ur gonna copy my friend, keep the spare in a ziplock bag, moisture is one of the reasons people say u shouldn't leave them out and unused for long periods of time

Awesome to hear you're in good shape again.
Was the problem you were having with the stock battery or the anker?

I have some nylon camera cases i've been using to carry around the doubleshots, and they have pockets that I slip things like memory cards, cables and the stock batteries in (whichever one isn't being used).
Appreciate the heads up, but I got the cases to keep the doubleshot behind a zipper to keep dust out, and when the accessories are in the zipper pockets they are protected enough. There isn't a lot of fog where I live, only rarely and otherwise the ambient moisture is not very high so it's not a big deal.
If I didn't have the cases, though, i'd definitely be using something like that. There were a couple of times I carried the doubleshot itself around in a ziplock bag back in august, if it was raining or going to rain that's how it left my house in my pocket. That's what prompted me to get the nylon cases - and though they aren't waterproof or anything, it's enough to not have to worry about it.
If i'm going to be in the rain then that's what I do - i'll have to come up with something better before it hits the rainy season around here - this time of year it doesn't rain often.
I'm having a similar problem, though not as extreme.
My phone's battery doesn't actually heat up but the area around the simcard. I'm running Pyroice with the extreme UV kernel and underclocked the CPU to 810mhz Max with setcpu 2.1.1a but it still warms up around the simcard area. I also never get anything better than 12hrs battery life.
Should I be worried?

I have had this same problem from day one. Even with the anker battery, and on every rom I have tried. I sometimes use flat icepacks to cool it down when it gets too hot. I haven't found anything fix.
Sent from my Bulletproof_Doubleshot using XDA App
I use my Mugen as my regular battery and my two Ankers as spares. I only have the OEM battery in case I need to send it to T-Mobile.
So I got the model numbers from both stock batteries that my friends have for their phones. Both are the same.
- part number 35H00153-00m
...and that matches one of the ones I have from above.
Anyone else have any other model numbers on their stock batteries that are different?
It would be nice to know what's out there and if a particular model seems to do better then another.
----
I run both stock batteries in one phone, and the anker in the other. Very rarely does the anker device get hot enough that I take notice and pay attention to it, but it does happen.
The one swapping out stock batteries back and forth can trigger a battery switch if it has been two days and I haven't swapped, or it gets too hot.
If it gets too hot I turn it off, let it cool down and then turn it on with the other battery. I try to keep the one not in use as full as viable, but never less then about halfway for more then a short while.
Enough people have shown a serious reduction in heat of the device by using an aftermarket battery that we've concluded pretty solidly that the stock battery is responsible for a large portion of the excessive heat.
Heat is the number one enemy of these kinds of batteries and microprocessors. If it starts to get hot enough to be uncomfortable in your hands, then you should start thinking about letting it cool down before running it so hard.
It happens more frequently then i'd like with the device running stock batteries, but I always make the decision that whatever i'm doing isn't worth aging the device and reducing it's service life just because I couldn't stop using it for a few minutes to let it cool off. The money I spent on it means more the longer it's in service, abusing it unnecessarily is wasteful to me.
I'm pretty particular about things like that, just my way. Your mileage may vary.
Blue: my stock battery has the same product number
i can't really say i've noticed it getting hot enough to take notice of it, but then again, i mainly use the Anker, since i only need to charge it once a day.
i was wondering if there's a chance that the heat issue is something HTC addressed in the last OTA update? definitely hard to say, but possible i suppose. perhaps i can try using the stock battery on the newest stock ROM and see if it heats up.
I doubt it's a matter of software or we wouldn't see much if any change when swapping to a different battery like the mugen or anker.
Any theory is valid until disproven though, and you never know unless you try so let us know how it turns out.

[Q] Long Term Battery Backup Storage

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone had any experience and suggestions for long term backup battery storage.
I need to order a new battery for my tab and I have someone behind the scenes who can get me a few batteries with his discount. I want to get one regular use battery to replace the one in my tab and store the others for future use. I'm looking at storing these batteries for at least 2 years. I use my tablet every day for a good 9-10 hours each day, so there is not doubt that I will burn through another batteries charge life cycle within a year or so.
I started to use it sans battery and just kept it plugged in when I was at home to preserve the battery for work, but keeping it plugged in is starting to become a pain.
So, to recap simply: I need to store a tablet battery unused for at least a year and need some advice.
Store a Li Ion battery at about 50% charge. You shouldn't be keeping them stored and unused for more than a year. Rotate them in and out of use. Keep one of them charging while you use the other. Once you drain one, swap it with the charged one. I do this with my HD2 and the three batteries I have for it. I always have a spare, and always have one charged and ready to swap out.
Yeah, that's what I was hoping I wouldn't hear. This is what I do with the travel battery for my phone, but this is a tablet that is a beast to change the battery. After taking the back off a few times it becomes way to loose and I have to replace the back.
Any other suggestions - possibly a 40-60% charge and a nice cold chill in the fridge? I don't know the validity of the refrigerated battery but my grandparents swear by it and have always had ready to use batteries (a little different than my application, I know, but still...)

That's actually sound advise. Chilling the battery slows the decay. Do not put them in the freezer. I would think they'd be ok in the fridge, but I've never stored a battery for more than a couple days in there. I'm not sure how it would react to years in there. Your best bet is to buy the batteries closer to the time you need them. For what you are asking, you're going to be wasting your money anyway. You may as well get your money's worth later on.

[Q] Replacing HTC One X battery

Hi all.
I want to know how many charge-discharge cycles does HTC One X battery have?
Will the battery last more than 2 years? Quite uncommon, but I would not like to change my smartphone for quite some time (> 5 years ??).
I have read that due to uni-body design we cannot remove HTC One X battery.
So even if I want to get my device repaired after battery's life is over, can i not get the battery changed through HTC or some repairer?
Similar question for Samsung SII. I read that the Super AMOLED Plus screen gives lot of burn-in and other issues. Is it possible to get the screen replaced after it becomes unbearable. How much would that cost?
Thanks for replies in advance.
Regards,
amit112amit
Actually I'm also interested in this. I'm planning to use the device more than 2 years.
From what I saw from the attached image, battery can be changed from pins theorically after all.
I have not seen sellers of such battery. Anyone saw any ?
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I had contacted HTC via email as well as telephone. They said their service center can change battery if need be even after two years(not for free of course).
I already bought the phone based on this assurance.
Hope this helps.

Well the thing I was wondering about these days is can we just replace one x battery with one x+?
I think it's possible, because everything is the same, I mean size and connection.
So, if you can buy htc one x+ battery, you can put it in your htc one x and have a nice upgraded 2100 mAh battery instead of 1800!
I'm wondering if the HOX will still be as solid and tight after tearing the entire thing apart and putting it all back together. Creaking along the edges sure is unwelcome.
The phone's battery is ok, but just turn the screen's brightness to low
Hello, I had many of the same concerns about this phone before I purchased it, however, after having the phone and using it for a while as well as reading about the battery life of the lithium polymer battery, I'm confident it will last quite a while. Just note that the screen does take up A LOT of juice, therefore I have a widget to change the backlight to whatever percentage I want...normally at 10-15 unless brighter is needed...it's still pretty bright at zero. Also, there are a few games that really kill the battery, so make sure to be near an outlet if you want to play those for very long. But for the average person's usage...the phone's battery charge will last for a whole day...maybe needing to plug it in once during the day and at night if you use it heavily like I do. I've read that lithium polymer batteries actually work a little different than lithium ions; where they don't have a set number of charges, but if you keep the battery in good health, it should last a lot longer overall than the L-ions do. I normally don't even charge up to 100 because of a few articles I read about these new batteries. I usually charge it when it gets down to 15-20 and take it off in the 90s... it's a very fast charge too so you don't have to wait forever for it.
Best widget for setting the brightness I found is called... Brightness level
Also make sure to get Battery HD Pro... it tells you exactly how long you need to charge it for...tells the percentage of charge in the upper left hand corner of the device...and give you the temp and health of the battery. They have a free and pro version...not sure the difference but the pro version is cheap and very helpful.
Also turning screen timeout down helps

Replacement Battery Question

Okay so two days ago I put in my second replacement battery in the 2 or so years I've had it.
The battery that came in it I guess was faulty as within two months it started overheating like hell and draining the battery very fast as a result. So about 6 months after getting it I ordered a new battery replacement from NewPower99, and I don't remember when I first started using it, but It's been good until about a month ago.
So I got the newest one from ZTHY Tech. And I put it in, but I don't know if it's just me, but it seems to be draining a bit to fast, and this battery has better reviews then the newpower so I don't see how it could be just how this one is.
So I was wondering, is there something I should do before charging it again? Like should I completely discharge it or something?? Also, what's discharging?
For all your battery information needs: http://batteryuniversity.com/
Best battery place on the internet IMNSHO.
Elsareyes, I suspect your battery connections may be the culprit. Look through this thread so see how to fix.
Nah, I found out the problem, I think ZTHY is just a **** brand. Which would explain why it's 20 dollars cheaper.
I put back in my old one, and despite overheating from time to time, it lasts a hell of a lot longer. And it's a year and a half old.
I'm gonna buy another of the good battery in a few weeks when I have enough money.
That's good, keep us posted on the 'good battery' when you get it. We all need a good reliable battery vendor for this tablet.

4000mAh Asus battery replacement for OnePlus 6

Hello guys, so there's a local mobile repair shop here in my country where they offer legit Asus battery as a replacement to the stock 3300mAh of our OnePlus 6. I'm just wondering, is there anyone here tried the same thing on their OP6? I've already tried searching on google and here on XDA but I'm afraid there's none, so I'm asking this here.
So, the battery mod is a 4000mAh from Asus which can perfectly fit our OnePlus 6 device without any additional space/bulk on the inside. I already have a schedule for the battery replacement this week and hopefully I would see improvements over my aging stock battery.
Without playing any games, I am averaging 6.5-7hrs SoT with a day and a half of battery until it reaches below 15%, while when playing games, I am only getting 3-4hrs of SoT.
I would post here some screenshots of changes/improvements on the battery life after I received the battery replacement.
Feel free to comment anything with regards to the matter. Thanks guys! ??
As long as the battery connector is the same I think it should be fine. But I'd be seriously worried about Dash Charge. Not all batteries can take that wattage. Like a week ago someone in my group shared photos of a guy with a battery replacement in his Poco and his phone exploded in his pocket and guy had really badly burned/melted skin on his thigh.
So be careful with that, monitor temperatures and stay safe
I would be very wary of non-standard batteries in this phone unless they are specifically approved for usage, i.e., VOOC/Dash charge supported. The fact that the connection may fit means nothing.
Otherwise you're risking a fire or explosion. Charging protocols for li-ion batteries are nothing to mess around with.

I watched a tear down of the OnePlus 6 several months ago and saw that doing a battery replacement on this phone is one of the easiest I have ever seen. So easy in fact that I often wonder if OnePlus made it easy for those of us who are willing to do the work so as to keep our phones running a long time!

OFFTOPIC:
Any place where we can buy original batteries?
One year past and already notice decrease more 20% life battery....
As Cleruzinek said, It's NOT wise to use non-oneplus battery to replace the original, unless u certainly know what u'r doing...at least u'r familar with oneplus "voltage control" in the OP circuit board; battery without ISO proven is quite dangerous and cause trouble...for safely is better stick to original's haha! @Mord0rr Taobao or E-bay have...check those out!
TABAO don´t know how to buy...
Ebay....just say i don`t trust those sources as legitime item....thats why i ask.
When I change by back cover ( bought it as broken) I thought I could as well change the battery, which is very easy. I bought it not at Ebay but from a well known danish provider. It looks and feels exactly as the battery that was there before, and works fine now several months later. So I would look for one from a local provider for spare parts for oneplus.
