You can find all the proper LG part numbers in the D820 service manual, plus, it has the proper steps to dis-assemble the Nexus 5 so you don't break anything.
EAC62078701 is the part number to search for.
Read the last 20 or so pages for part numbers and di-assembly instructions(with color pictures!).

I contact the sellers and he assure me that their supply is directly from lg service.
Hi,
I have two questions...is there a trusted US reseller of the genuine LG battery. The one above is from the UK.
Also...I attached the GSAM captures...does this look normal for nexus 5? My battery is being drained very quickly lately. Maybe I need to do a factory reset?

2 hours screen on, half battery used? Yeah could be normal. Hard to say really.
Me too.....
I am looking for this, too. My battery is really messed up. I've tried recalibrating, factory reset, different ROMs, complete stock, etc. I'm getting 3 hrs. TOTAL before having to charge and it'll hit 25% and die almost immediately after that. I power back on and I'm at 3% (!). I'm trying the Zerolemon battery case to see if that gets me through the next few months until I can possibly upgrade or get another Nexus 5.
Excellent

I've spent the past few days looking for a genuine battery (in the UK). I've actually spent about 2 weeks swapping ROM's around from 4.4 to 5.0.1. Turns out Lollipop is some of my problem but even on 4.4 I'm getting pretty bad life.
All the other batteries I could find were about half the price but the reviews said they were fakes. I'll try this one.
OEM battery is only about $10 or $15, so price alone won't tell you if it's genuine or not.

I can't argue with that!
When I searched on amazon.co.uk for OEM Nexus 5 battery, I found a few for only about £10 but the reivews made it clear that they were not really LG batteries. I couldn't find the link that the poster gave (probably because it doesn't have OEM in it). I've no reason to believe it is more genuine other than the poster contacted them and they assured him. So I ordered it and it looks very genuine so far - some that are sold as OEM don't even have "LG" written on them!
I'll install it soon and see if my battery life improves and come back here and also write an amazon review - it's the only way for people to see what's good or not.

Resellers will then mark those up to whatever price they want so it's really a crap shoot out there. Best of luck with your replacement and let us know the results.
I would like to ask all the people on this forum that have replaces their battery in the Nexus 5 to post some of their impressions about the "new" battery, this thread looks like the perfect place to do this.
I will start:
- I had to replace my battery because it became very bloated/swollen, so much that on one side the back case was lifted 1 mm, and
the phone felt a little bit heavier. Also the battery would not last even an hour, the phone closing on it's own with the battery showing 50-70 %,
and after reset showing <10%, then it would magically charge itself back to 50%
- So I bought a new one from ebay: "http://www.ebay.com/itm/361075010454", the guy had positive reviews and many people got this item
- It arrived in perfect state, at least visually, it had part number "EAC62078701" like all the replacement batteries online, the seller assured me it was original and new from LG. Proof that it was new could be that the connector ribbon was straight and not folded in any way, so it could not have been used in a phone before. The inscriptions on it seemed original, but when I scanned the barcode from the lower-left side it decoded a different date
than the one written on it over the P/N, so no match, but what does this mean ?
- I put it into the phone and now it acts "normally", meaning that it goes from 100% all the way to 0% without the phone closing itself
- Charging also seems normal, taking about 2,5 hours to fully charge with the LG WCP-300 wireless charger
- But this is were the problems start, with the new battery I cannot get more than 2 - 2,5 hours of SOT no matter what I do. I've tried 4.4.4, L preview, 5.0, 5.0.1, even cm11, with full wipes and no restores, but it's the same, as soon as the screen in on, the battery drains like crazy, I lose 15% battery in 10 minutes of playing Temple Run 2, which is not even such a demanding game. Totally unacceptable, when the phone was new, I used to get 4-5 hours of SOT, now I don't even get half that.
This is why I'd like to get other people's impressions about a replacement battery.
Maybe this replacement battery is bad, I but I don't want to get another one without proof that other replacement batteries can get 4 hours of SOT with stock Lollipop.
Thank you.

With all bells and whistles I get 3- 3.5h SOT . LTE at all times , location on , brightness around 15%. 4 to 5h on 3g with location off and no music.
The only way to be sure if it's the battery is to either compare it with another battery in your phone or do a controlled discharge .
That would involve taking it out , wiring it to a constant current sink and timing how long it takes until it reaches cut-off voltage. Since either buying a current sink or building one will cost you more than 15 bucks I'd say just look for another battery if you really hate the current SOT .
Best of luck!!! Had the same issue a few days ago when I plugged my N5 to the charger of my sisters tablet, which is obviously one of those cheap Made in China tablets,
and the voltage totally killed the battery in my phone, so didnt really feel like those sellers where worth my trust, so went to FB and got in the N5 fan page of my country, so there was a guy who had one with a broken screen and was nice enough to sell me his battery, this is basically your best shot, asking around if you REEEEAAALLY want a original one, since LG dont sell them to the public
Temperature of replacement Nexus 5 battery
Hi,
Sorry to bother you, but could you tell me if your replacement Nexus 5 battery has a varies temperature?
I mean if the temperature goes up to 35 Celsius when it's charging or you're playing games, of if it goes down to 25 when it's idle.
Because my replacement battery always stays at 29 degrees Celsius, no matter how I use the phone.
I think mine might be bad, but I want to check with someone else before buying another one.
Thanks.
Update - I replaced it a few days ago (using the amazon.co.uk link given previously) and it has solved my issues. I played a video in a loop on full brightness and got almost double what I had before. General usage seems much better too.
So why did I need a new one after just a year? I think my old one was damaged by overheating on cheap wireless charger. My new charger doesn't make the phone get so hot. I used the old one for about a year and lost about 50% capacity. I thought they must all do that so I didn't worry. I'm told heat can damage the battery.
The temperature is fine - about room temp unless I use it a lot.
It's normal - a battery loses about 30% of its capacity after 400 cycles.

I guess you got that from something like "table 2" on this page -
http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries
That's showing a 30% loss on 300-500 cycles assuming the battery was right down to 0%. I didn't know that.
However, I lost 50% and would not have been charging from 0% so it seems worse than average. The next paragraph on that page talks about degradation due to heat. That would explain why mine was so bad.
I'm still surprised though as I've had a few smart phones and never noticed even 30%. I had my Motorola Defy for 2 years as my main phone and then 2 years as a spare and it seemed fine. I suppose you don't notice a gradual loss so presumably I just wasn't noticing.
Not all batteries are made the same - my very old motorola (w388 , 10 years old) started out with around 7 days battery life . Now it only lasts about 3 days so ~60% loss.
My desire x lost around 30% capacity in 2 years - so around 900 charging cycles. My S3 on the other side ... capacity was down to 50% after 200 charging cycles. I've checked most of the with a controlled discharge on a current sink so it should be about 3% off .
So i finally replace my battery and miracle happen phone charge normally not in 40 minutes, there is no battery jump and fall during reboot, no enormous drain etc. So if you have issue as described above and changing roms, kernels and go back to kitkat didn't help change your battery.
Just got a battery from eBay... Looks authentic, but doesn't charge.. Just stays at 0%...
Probably will have to exchange... Is there a way to tell if an LG battery is authentic??
Edit: Well the seller has quickly refunded me and I didn't even have to send back the battery. Told him it wouldn't charge and is stuck at 0%.. He insisted he would just send out a new one, but I asked for a refund instead.
Already ordered a new one from etradesupply, should be here within a few days..
Hi there I'm looking to get an OEM Edge battery and just the battery itself. I'm having trouble finding a reliable source and don't want to buy some fake crap. I'm not looking for the $40 battery and charger thing from Samsung unless I can get it cheaper.
Sent from my SM-N915T using XDA Free mobile app
thats the only option you have. they just include the case with a built in charger to wall so you can carry it around and have it not be exposed to the elements. That your only choice or could call your local oem samsung tech center to see if they might just sell you the battery itself.
Or you could order the OEM battery by itself, from the bay for $24 including shipping.

How can you be sure that is real?
I'd like to know too...
For critical accessories like batteries,it's best to buy it from a Samsung store or Service Center directly with the guarantee bill. I've had my fair share of cheap $4 batteries that swelled up and had barely half the juice within 3 months. A good OEM battery will last you easily a year.

Thank you for the link. I just ordered a battery from this store
The above links are not working. Can somebody share a new source, where i can buy a new genuine battery?
anyone using this brand ? http://www.nohon.hk/en/product/view/id-189.html
I asked local Samsung service where warranty repairs are made and there is the cheapest place.. Cheaper then any webshop i found.. About 20 USD in local currency..
Note Edge Extended Battery and Wireless Charging Setup
Hello everyone,
I use an extended battery (5450mAh) setup complete with wireless charging and works with the factory cover!!! I typically have 35% remaining after being out 8-10 hours with no charger and moderate use.
Once I get 10 posts I will link the gear I am using but if you would like to PM me I will gladly send it ahead of time.
Or if ya want a battery the same size of the original OEM battery, I'd say with a Beltron from eBay it's only 10 or so bucks and a 3000mah, my oem batt has the defect where the phone shuts off completely at 10% o matter what version of android or rom I'm on, this one hangs on and last forever at 1% and there's no false claims of a bigger size, I'd probably even say it's better than the oem one... http://www.ebay.com/itm/251842830321 had it for a year and a half and it's stayed true to it's claimed size and life giving me no problems!
Also I'd say this is a must I'm happy with it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/172341339549 it charged my 9000mah ZeroLemon perfectly fine from late yesterday afternoon to this morning and half the price of the official oem samsung version of the samsung and great life saver when ya have multiple batteries.
I'm going to get this Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 24W USB Adapter and see how it does for giving me a faster charging rate: http://www.ebay.com/itm/301913439056 rn for some dumb reason my phone hates low powered chargers and it won't even trickle charge on one overnight I'll just wake up to a dead battery the next morning unless I turn my phone off completely, this happens on KK, LP and MM. >_<!
Here's what I'm using - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i70xqUNoYVE
will the note 4 battery work on the note edge? Or are there diffrent? Can i use it, or is it not good for the phone?
Thanks.
I got the original samsung battery from ebay for us14 and all my battery issues went away.
this is the link from where i bought it:

Hi guys! Iam tempted on buying the gear S3 here but its ridiculously expensive where i live and therefore it needs to be near perfect for me to justify the purchase! My main concern is battery life (more so the actual phone then the watch) I understand the theory that your inclined to check your phone less and therefore your phones battery goes further but iam interested in how much actual screen on time your losing!! For example.... If you charge your phone to 100% and you connect your gear s3 to it and leave it for 24hours and in that time you don't use your phone at all! How much would your battery have dropped after 24 hours?
Iam a massive battery junkie and i love how good my phones battery is and for me personally i would rather not use the gear s3 if its gonna kill my phones battery! Even a 1% drop an hour to me would bordering on too much as that would equate to a 24% drop on your phone in 24hours without using ur phone at all!
I normally get 4 days use out of my battery, however I recharge after about 3 days.

Not literally none obviously, but it is so little that I don't notice it. Less than 1% per hour.
I did a six hour hike the other day, logging the hike on the watch and S-health did take a more noticeable hit on the battery. Like more than 10% but I don't recall that happening on other hikes.
I think the S3 is the best smartwatch currently available. I've had mine for six months and am still very happy with it. But you said a couple of things in your post that give me pause. While I'm OK with spending $350 USD on what is essentially a phone accessory, the S3 is far from the "near perfect" that you may be expecting. Furthermore, your obsession with battery efficiency is a trait that you may find very irritating with smartwatches. Obviously you can do what you want, but I would be remiss if I didn't suggest caution regarding your expectations.

I bought an original battery on ebay.
What should I check on the battery before install it?
I am going to give the mobile to a shop to do the replacement. What do you suggest should I check if the job is well done?
Thanks
Hey,
first of all, you probably bought a fake battery, and you will notice that after using your phone for 1 month afterwards.
There are no reliable sources for original samsung batterys than Samsung himself or there offical partner!
All "Original" batterys out there are either used or cheap knock offs.
Remember, if you bring it to a random store, your phone will loose its waterproofness! (only Samsung itself can repair it and keep it waterproof afterwards). And youll loose your warranty if there is some left.
(wouldnt be a problem for me but perhaps for you)
If you get your phone back from the store, look around the edges and the back panel should sit perektly (have a look at your phone right now to check).
before you leave the store have a overall check of your phone:
type *#0*# in your phone app and test every single part of the phone.
thats all
*edit*: regard checking the battery: normaly you cant check them. Only way would be a full charg and messure the discharge to see its real size, but im not a electrician, so i cant help with that.
Many thanks.
I bought this one.
https://www.ebay.it/itm/162984665547
The one I have on my phone has 2999 mAh working (Accubattery stats).
I am really in doubt about what to do.
Should I replace it?
PS: i do not care of the warranty anymore..
Its impossible to tell without messuring it. But as i said before 95% its a knock off from china.
Sadly Accubattery stats are not reliable.
Regarding your last question:
If your phone looses more than 3% of battery over night while everything is turned on (wifi etc). Check your battery stats if something is eating up your battery. Moreover you should reach 4h of screen on time (in device maintance --> battery --> battery usage of Android, tap on "screen"). Everything nearby is good. So that should be the normal lifespan of our battery (s8+ , dualsim will have a little less).
So if you have significant less power and you cant make it throught a day, i would recommend to check the price for an replacment battery from samsung and get it build in in a shop, via samsung or do it by yourself.
btw would be great if you could post the price here, im interested!

my advice, call samsung to get a original replacement battery and send your ebay one back.
3h30min SOT in my eyes is doable but thats up to you.
Samsung says the price to "fix" the problem is about 65€
https://www.samsung.com/it/support/assistenzamobile/preventivo/
sure, the service is included in that price. But when i called them to get only the battery, they gave me a phone number of an certified partner who only sold the battery without the repair service. That was for my s7 edge.
I received the battery.. The QR code works and give me this code
GH43-04726A+AA1K129WS+13841
Is there any way to understand if it is original?
not that i know, ill stick with my previous answere. There are no originals out there, because Samsung is only selling them themselfes.
Regards
Thx, i see your point. But I had already bought it before you suggested me

3.5h of SOT :angel:
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.
