I'm on the market to upgrade my battery from the 1300 to the evo 1500 mah.
I was looking for a bargain deal that isn't too good to be true. Like a twenty dollar battery. Does anyone who bought from ebay know any reputable sellers I should by from?

I bought these and they are real (when I bought them in June they were at least)
Can you comfirm the labels on the battery match this?
http://androidforums.com/incredible-accessories/99219-1500mah-fake-real.html
Yes the label is correct. If you read the link you posted it says a lot good about that seller. BUT, I am posting this since today, exactly 6 months after purchase, the battery from that seller died. It overheated and wont charge or power the phone. It gave no warning since it was working great. Also weird; it died exactly at 6 months old.....to the day I bought it. I am also now looking for a NEW reputable seller. I am looking at this auction 280605134627 since if I am going to get screwed, might as well be for as little as possible.
Hey guys,
After having my Galaxy Nexus for little over a week, the battery is starting to worry me. I don't think the battery would ever last me one full day with heavy usage and I was wondering, do you guys know of a website or a retailer that sells an extended battery/extra battery or on the go charger for the Galaxy Nexus? I'm probably going out for the holidays and I don't want the battery to die on me.
I am using the GSM variant of the Galaxy Nexus from Bell on Android Revolution HD (though I did notice the same battery life on the stock rom :/)
Also, on a side note, does anyone have a good site to get a USB otg adapter or a MHL-HDMI cable/adapter for a good price?
Note: I'd prefer not buying from Ebay, as I have had bad experiences in the past. Something like Amazon would be preferred.
Thanks,
Mosh

if your using the gsm gnex i would get the gnex carcharger from vzw, it charges the phone really fast(like the home charger) until you can find a gsm extended battery online or something
I'd go nuts having to constantly swap out my batteries to charge them at the end of the day. Get the charger.
Monoprice is a good place for cables. Power sources though are kind of meh.

I've got a spare battery and the factory stand that can charge the extra battery without it being in the phone on order. Not sure when they'll reach my shores but apparently "not too far away". I'm sure you could find a supplier where ever you are. IMO they were reasonably priced for genuine accessories
Thanks for the replies guys! I don't think I can get a charger from Verizon and it would probably be expensive. Oh, and just to confirm, by charger you mean on the go (without an outlet)?
EDIT: Also, do you guys know of any good websites in Canada?
EDIT2: Amazon is preferable!

You could, you know, do a search on amazon:

Been trawling the interwebs for an extended battery for gsm (like the gs2 one), If anyone comes across anything please post
Extended battery is still on sale for $24.99 I just ordered mine last night. Click the link and add to cart and it will price drop to $24.99.
Enjoy.
I'll let you know how much extra battery it actually gives once I get it but its supposed to help.
I would post the link but since I'm still so new it will not let me but just go to Verizonwireless and find it under the accessories. The Retail stores are doing the same deal as well.

Did you order from Verizon? Or from the link posted above?
I ordered directly from verizon, get free 2 day shipping as well. Its a actual bigger battery with new backplate to fit it directly onto the phone, so other then that you don't really even know you have the extended battery. I will know once it comes it how much bigger it makes the phone but I've heard its pretty minimal on the look of it. I don't know if this supports the GSM model since I am on Verizon and have the LTE/CDMA phone.
i got my car charger from expansys when i ordered the phone
Can anyone confirm that this will work? : http://www.amazon.com/PowerGen-Ultr..._1_6?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1324279677&sr=1-6
I see newpower99 sells replacement battery for the T800 for $69. Then there's an eBay merchant that sells one for $18
http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/281587417724?lpid=82&chn=ps&ul_noapp=true
Anybody with experience with these? Maybe the cheap battery will blow up in my face or maybe newpower99 just grossly marks up?
I was going to give one a go myself when my battery eventually dies, the ebay seller has good feedback for the sales he has made.
But if the worsted happens, you have nobody to sue for damages like you get with a big seller like M99
I myself will take the chance but that is my choice, you have to make your own mind up.
John.
Nope, been there, done that. Bought cheap replacement batteries before. They didn't blow up or cause any damage, but they never took a charge either! These were 4, count them, 4 batteries for a Canon digital SLR camera. I bought one, no luck, they sent me 3 additional replacements none of which would charge. I did get my money refunded and I bought a REAL Canon battery and it DID charge. Nope, no way I'll do it again. OEM only for ME.

Probably have to agree with this. Cheap for a reason. If it doesn't blow up or damage the device I doubt it'll hold charge or last very long.
So.... Did anyone here end up replacing their batteries?
If so - did you roll the dice with ebay, or go the pricier route with Newpower99?
My battery is still relatively decent, but I expect will need eventual replacement.
What would be a good app to assess a battery, and which result would trigger replacement?
I did replace my 8.4 battery with a new one... bough it at my country for RM 75... approximately around USD 16 and it work fine.
Same here. Got a 15 euro battery on Ebay out of Ireland. Part number matched, it was a perfect original. Works like a charm.
Can I rely on any non genuine batteries on ebay or should I be looking for an LG original? If so, where should I buy it from?
Thanks
Lg website. Official battery is only $15

Best option for any LG device. Got one for my phone last year. Still running great. Ordered one last week for my wife's mother's phone and upon testing the battery found it to be a dud. Had to start RMA and order another replacement. Ugh !!
If you get a charger dock with the battery both are 10 each.
I bought a supposedly genuine battery off of Ebay that turned out to be a total bust. It doesn't fit well either as I can feel it shifting inside the phone. :crying:
Does anyone have any suggestions on good OPO 2 replacement batteries?
I actually bought 2 different ones (one from ebay and one from a different site). Both of which turned out to be bad. They worked but they lasted less than the original one. I ended up going back to the original. If yours' is tottaly dead, I suggest you just stick with whatever you've got and don't waste more money.
why don't you buy it from oneplus store?

Because if you already knew, oneplus doesn't sell any replacement parts through their store, they only do repairs (which are expensive afaik)
Damn, guess I'll have to go back to the old one. I might try Amazon and see if they're better than ebay.
Thinking after 2 years it's time for a battery replacement, I ordered as well recently from Ebay waiting it to be delivered but not keeping my hopes high. I let you guys know if it turns out OK.
Edit: It's terrible. Overheats and charges really slow etc. Went back to the stock. Ordered another one. Will update.
Edit 2: Back again to stock.
same here guys.. got the phone for 20 months now and in winter I got huge battery drops....I'm just calling/email and the battery won't last for more then 8 hrs... this is crazy...
same here, bought two on ebay, both worse than the original.
Asked support where to get a original replacement, but they wouldn't tell, but offered to do the replacement for around 40 Euros. It took almost 5 weeks though, so if you have a spare phone, I'd advise to do the same, instead of trying to find a decent replacement somewhere....
Hi everyone, reviving this thread as the older our beloved op2 gets the more and more of us will be in a need of a replacement battery.
Now, did anyone have any luck finding an oem battery replacement somewhere else than OP support?
All the "originals" on eBay seem to be garbage.
Where to buy good battery? Anyone bought recently & is satisfied with the product?

before you start getting stuff from ebay and other questionable sources, ask OP how much will it cost you for THEM to replace it.
in my case, they are asking for 33 euros which is actually not bad at all. as a matter of facts, i am actually sending mine out for repair tomorrow. sure, i will have to live without my OP for like 2 weeks, but there is a guarantee i will get an original battery.
rule of a thumb - "original" batteries from ebay are ****

I agree. Charged the same. Like you said, will give it to service Centre.
Hi all, so I've bought one on ebay for like 15$ with tools set and so far so good, on one charge got like 1,5 - 2 days - average usage (calls, emails, toilet gaming) , but charging time is longer i think... keywords for ebay "Original NEW Battery BLP597 For OnePlus Two 2 With Nice Tools 3200mAh 3.8V"
I'm using it for 3rd week now...
I recently had my battery replaced by OP.
RMA created in the weekend.
Package shipped out on Tuesday evening (through UPS).
Delivered at the repair center on Wednesday, repair quote received (and paid) in the evening.
Repaired on Thursday morning and dispatched later that day.
Received back in my possession (UPS delivered) on Friday.
Sure, it was wiped, bootloader locked and flashed with OOS 3.6.1. but that was expected.
I have absolutely no reason to complain and I hereby officially regret all my previous attempts to get a "new" battery from ebay or other questionable sources for which I wasted more money than OP asked for: 33 EUR.
New battery immediately increased the SOT by 1 hour and i no longer face the issue i faced before which was: whenever the battery dropped to 30% i knew i had no more than half an hour left until the phone died.
So, if you need a new battery, save yourself the time and money and do it the same way. I would certainly recommend this to all european customers, like me.

Hello, can you please install "accubatery" app from playstore and charge your phone from 1-100% without using it? It will show you a real estimate of your battery capacity. Post screenshots afterwards, I will buy that battery for sure if its close to an original new one. Thank you!
Hi, will install it, but not sure about the 0-100% as I need the phone for daily use..maybe during weekend

Thank you, the 0-100% is not that important, the bigger fraction of charge the better, you can install it now and it will measure your battery over time, the more charge sessions of over 20% the more accurate results it gives.
Hi so I've done it yesterday. See screenshots attached.

That's actually very nice score, looks like a real oem battery or a very close one. New original. Batteries show around 90%-93% with that app. Buying one, thankyou.
Maybe this has been asked elsewhere... but facing the fact that mostly our only option here is 3rd party batteries... has anyone tried one of the two (or more?) Chinese 3800mAh batteries? One is called an HSABAT (maybe the company) and the other a Da Da Xiong.
Here's the HSABAT "New 3800mAh BLP597 Battery" (I am not recommending or dissing this! Just interested if someone's tried it!):
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HSABAT-N...Oneplus-2-One-Plus-Two-Battery-p/202269516963
And here's the Da Da Xiong 3800mAh BLP597 Battery:
https://www.dhgate.com/store/product/da-da-xiong-3800mah-blp597-battery-for-oneplus/399378631.html
AGAIN... neither of these have been tested by me. I am wanting input from anyone who has tested them. I know we sometimes have opinions re China, many of those opinions bogus, but folks our phones were made there. So maybe these are good. And maybe they are a joke. I hope for input from someone who's tried 'em.
