Universal shutting down earlier and earlier

Hello everybody! I love my Qtek 9000 for many reasons, but the thing I hate the most is the battery. I tried different ROMs (Ranju's, Tomal's etc) and I'm using now the Shiva310.
My ppc never shut down with battery less than 10%...NEVER! But now it's impossible to use it, because it ends at 70%! With the previous it ended at about 50%.
Anybody knows why? I've paid attention to flash when I had full charged battery (Green LED).

Hi,
I have similar problem in past. I have sent my universal to technical assistance too, for more security. But my suspect are right, was the battery. After I have changed the battery, the problem solved.
Regards

Had the same problem - only one solution was/is available, as to my knowledge, to change the battery

Hi
Change your battery. It will solve the problem. I had the same problem and I solved it that way.

Thank you all for your answers. I tried to resurrect my battery with this thread (Solution 2: Recalibrate the battery) and tonight I'll try to put in the freezer. Then I'll reflash the ROM again to understand if the ROM version matters.
I'll came back in this thread to show the results. Bye!

You are only $29USD away form a new battery, so I´ll recommend you to try that option.
Good luck

I saw prices like that in a site but I don't know how much will the shipping cost! I'm in Italy and the International rate are not much friendly...

Aren't there cheaper batterys on eBay? or are they of lower quality? I've been thinking of bying an extended battery (3000+ mhA) before I placed my uni up for sale.
Should one buy batteries from eBay? if so does anyone know of a reliable seller?

Ersil: I'm obviously a new member and I'm not familiar with a lot on this forum but can you please tell me, if you are from Itali how come you have FIDO.CA as a mobile service provider, isn't it only a Canadian mobile company? I've noticed this a lot on other profiles; I've just always thought that Fido is strictly a Canadian company.

I'll check on eBay, but I don't like it much in this time, it's becoming too expensive.

Oh! So it's the mob company! I didn't know that! I think that it's the default, I'll set my operator: WIND.

2 Batteries (seems the standard ones) and a charger 22,8 Australian Dollar (about 13.27€) from an Honk Kong ebayer.
Do you think I can trust him?

The seller seems legitimate, and with almost 40,000 sales at %99.3 positive I would trust him. I also checked his reviews and most buyers seem to be very happy with their purchase, the only negatives were due to slow shipping and wrong parts but at %99.3 you can't go wrong.
My only concern is with the battery itself; would it hold long enough of a charge to match the original battery’s life.
I bough a couple batteries for my Kodak camera and neither of them hold the charge as long as my original does.
I hope this helped.

anyone tried this extended battery, seems v cheap.

+1, Might invest in one as a backup.
Waiting for reviews

+1 A review would be awesome.

The only place that stocks them online is eBay. This makes me suspicious straight away.
Had bad experiences with cheap batteries. We ordered one for a customers camera once, it arrived, we left it on the counter, it caught fire before we'd even taken it out of the packaging.
My advice? Steer clear. I'd certainly not put it anywhere near my phone.

I have battery from ebay for my nokia n95, psp, samsung omnia, xbox 360 controll. never had any problem with them. batterylife is not as good as orginal but they cost 10 times less.

ah too bad they only ship within UK...
why do most UK sellers do that? can't be because of the shipping costs, because those are passed on to the customer

They have sold 42 so far off that page, what I do sometimes is go into their feedback and see if someone has bought that battery from them. Then I send them a message and ask them directly if the battery is any good and if they noticed any difference in how long the phone lasts.

Replacement battery for HTC Saga (India)

Hey Guys,
I know this has been asked a lot of times already, but all those links point to international sites. There are a number of batteries available on ebay.in but I'm really skeptical about them.
So I was wondering if any one of you have bought one of those or from any other source and satisfied with the battery, would you please share the links?
I might buy a new phone eventually, but I want to keep this one alive It's not easy to give up on this guy!
:good:

Well if you are going for quality, buy an original one. Just google htc store. If you want something propably better go for mugen. These are expensive choices. If you want something cheap there's no big difference really, or no tests availble, so just buy the one that has the color you like.

I got my replacement battery and it has 4hours + of screen on time, which is sufficient till the next charge and enough to last me a day with heavy usage, Epower. But i think i got a bad bargain, seems a bit pricy, but more than a few months now, and the battery seems durable and it didnt explode

Someone please provide a link to any trusted product. And it should be available in India.
I bought one from eBay which supposed to be original but the new battery got quickly discharged after a few cycles and now it is also inflated. In need of a good battery.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Go to ebay and search "Replacement 2450mAh Battery for HTC Incredible S G11 Desire S G12 A7272 DesireZ" I have this one from hi-etech. No problems at all.

It isn't available in eBay India. And wherever it is available, the shipping costs are more than the product's cost.
Thank though! ☺

I bought a 2450 mAh GOLD BATTERY from eBay back in September 2013, it's still going strong. The battery was made in Japan but I bought it from a UK seller (as I live in the UK). I believe it says it's for the Desire Z on it, but both phones use the same batteries so it's fine.

So, were anyone of you able to get a replacement battery in India? Links will be really helpful!

Legit OEM battery.

Hello everyone,
recently I have been having charging/discharging issues with the batter and I have figure out to change the batter. I went to Amazon/Ebay looking for good batteries but ended up backing out due to the fact that all reviews bring up the legitimacy of these batteries. So here I'm trying to find a good battery replacement.
Thanks in advance.

I've heard MD / Mobile Defenders is a good supplier but I don't know where you reside in but they are for the U.S.

Thanks, I'll do some search and see if I can find a viable way to purchase from them.

i bought a replacement battery from ebay. not samsung directly but said samsung. Whether the battery is legit im not sure but i replaced my fat bulging battery and have had the one from ebay in my s6. considering it has lasted me since last summer and ive had the same if not better battery life and for the price of 10 bucks (already owned the tools) its been good. The replacement process is easy and i am a novice cell repair man. besides getting a bad battery you can always return it and get a replacement or try another vendor. Godspeed fella

Batteries - Where, Help??

Where in the world could we now find a reliable battery for our old but gold galaxy S5?
Are there any authentic batteries still being produced till date?
The GAD batteries from UK are now out of production too!
Do you guys suggest downgrading to the very first firmware in order to retain battery performance and eliminate lag?

Crickets....anyone???
any idea when that GADfull battery from the UK will restock? I see them as the only decent option other than the extended batteries from AliExpress..

Anyone have experience with one of these?

Wish I knew. I saw somewhere that Polarcell used to be good, but then heard that Nohon was too, and the consensus now is that Nohon lasts a year. Getting to where the phones need new batteries and all we know is that the "Samsung" batteries are either run down used ones or counterfeit.
Downside of Polarcell is that they seem to only have them in Germany, which means $$ shipping.
I need a battery for mine and am trying to look around. Someone somewhere said "go to a local repair place that has been there a while, they know the ones that actually work"
