I am looking for a replacement/backup battery. Where would i find an original battery for the atrix, or what is the best alternative.
It also must be standard size. Thank you.

Oh, dear god, DO NOT buy those ****ty ebay batteries. If a battery isn't at least $30, it will be complete crap. I recently bought one of these deals on ebay for two batteries and a standalone battery charger for $25 and the batteries don't last more than ONE TO TWO HOURS. I'm okay with that, though, because the only thing I really wanted was the standalone charger and those aren't sold without batteries.
If you need spare, long lasting batteries, buy a Mugen Power. Mugen's are, without a doubt, the best aftermarket battery and will last just as long as your OEM Motorola, if not a little longer. Don't skimp on battery costs because you get what you pay for and there's a reason why those no-name ebay batteries are cheaper than dirt. (Hint: it's because they're worthless.)
This is what you want: Mugen Power 1900mAh Atrix battery
I always buy the standalone chargers, though, so that way I never end up charging my phone via USB cable; instead I just swap batteries.
Just contact Motorola support, they should send you one free because your phone is still under warranty.

Why should they send anyone a free spare battery? Ugh people here just love taking advantage of warranties for fraudulent reasons.
Anyway, screw post #2, it totally ignores the OP's request. You can get yourself a BH6X from Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Droi...ef=sr_1_1?rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1309970791&sr=8-1
Hopefully that links to the right bit, sold through and shipped through Amazon so you know you can trust it. Plus that way free shipping if you have Prime. I just got mine last week, it's definitely legit.

I actually have, sitting on my desk right now, one of these batteries. It's a legitimate, OEM BH6X, just like the battery that comes with the Atrix. For the Droid X, it's an extended battery, needing a new battery cover. Blame whoever wrote the listing for putting the wrong info there.
Says right on the battery 1880 mAh minimum, 1930 mAh typical.
I actually haven't been able to track down an OEM standalone battery charger though, so I'm using an Amzer one which is very basic and very cheap feeling but gets the job done.

i have (3) Motorola OEM BH5X batteries that state 1500 mAh on these.

If you have 3 BH6X, you'd see right next to where they state 1880 mAh it says 1880 is the minimum, and 1930 mAh is typical.
Guys all this battery is a oem Droid x extended battery just go to Verizon for a spare or w.e

It fits normally, as far as it being "better" I haven't noticed any differences in performance. Definitely comparable to the OEM one. I'd definitely recommend it.

Has anyone come across this before? Any reviews? Is this the Slim one?
I have never heard of this, but it looks amazing! Thank you. I'm gonna ask the seller. Seeming that the description claims it to be a Lithium Polymer battery it is very likely that it is normal sized. In the past I searched around and never found a lithium polymer battery for the Galaxy phones. It would be really nice if all phones had high capacity lithium polymer batteries.
My question is that something for the 19000 battery wise is the same size as all other Galaxy 1 variants correct?

Yes, you are right. After some more research @Wikipedia, LiPoly Batteries can have high capacity and can be used safely provided that you use the original chargers and not the cheap Chinese crap. BLE is not needed for them . I might buy one soon, If i do, will update this thread. Wish me luck.

Well ebay says he's got positive feedback so just keeping my fingers crossed.
Hi !
Any feedback about this battery ?
Did you received it in time ?
Is it really better than the 1500 or 1800mAh ?
Thank you
To good to be true I think
I'd also love a battery which claims what this one does at this price, but It seems to good to be true. A bit of Googling shows a review for this battery with 2/2 "average" reviews which show it did not perform as promised (but it did work). There are also some other review sites which say pretty much the same thing. (I'd love to post the URL but can't because I'm a noob. A search for B005O8S4V0 on amazon.co.uk will find this.
Also, I think that if this technology was legit Samsung would have shipped it with the unit itself !!
Pity, I was really hoping it would work. I hate it that all the aftermarket batteries I have purchased sucked compared to the original.
DG
Yep i've finally bought a 1800mAh PolaCell battery. It seemed more secured to me.
Maybe i'm wrong (I hope for those who bought it) but as you said the 2430mha chinese one is too cheap to be true.
Lithium Ion is different to Lithium Polymer, the one on the link is a Lithium Polymer
More Details here
Code:
http://jartiuch.wordpress.com/2007/11/01/nimh-or-li-ion-or-li-polymer-what-to-consider%E2%80%A6/
Basically, Lithium Polymer batteries can have the same size but higher capacity, so there is a good chance that the battery is real.
But again I haven't still bought it cause I am running on a tight budget, but I am planning to buy one when I am selling my phone so that I can buy an Galaxy S3.
That doesn't look like it could be a Li-Ion Polymer cell due to the rounded edge. Only a square edge or foil pack would mean it's a true prismatic cell which is the casing for Li-Ion Poly cells.
The 3.7V vs 3.6V already shows that most of these are using a technology better than just standard Li-Ion, so it wouldn't really be much of an improvement.
Different manufacturer use different materials for anode, cathode, and electrolyte and these Chinese companies use the cheapest ones. So you're either getting what you pay for or getting ripped off depending on how you look at the false advertising.
I heard this battery(same label/producer on other handsets) is very bad.
I think I grabbed the wrong one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/28086765575...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_3124wt_1163
It does look the same, but 2450. Interestingly it is made in Japan, not China. Here's the weight, plus the OEMs that I have for comparison:
32.3g OEM Captivate 1500mAh
34.3g Japan "Gold" 2450mAh
36.65g OEM Epic 1800mAh
So I was expecting it to come out around 1650mAh, but it gave me 1910 the first time. I'll use it for a few weeks and run another test. Not really sure what to expect though.
Edit: This battery is crap. 2nd run at 200mAh it failed at 4 hours, about 850mAh drained. Now it's hovering just over 3.5v, right over where the phone would shut down. Trying to get the rest out so I can cycle it again, but I think it will be getting a funeral tomorrow.
Been running the "2430mAh battery" for about a week now with Battery Monitor Widget. Estimated rating is ~1300 mAh. Not great, but still gets me through the day with light-moderate usage.
For $10 it was worth a shot. At least the battery isn't COMPLETE garbage. :S
I already have an 1800mah anker and it is working fine for around $10....I am getting an oem epic battery tomorrow hopefully and I just ordered this
http://www.amazon.com/Mugen-Extende...Z9TQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1338532343&sr=8-2
If they send a real mugen battery that works than I will be ecstatic.

Don't buy from that seller, seller1on1 did not ship a real mugen battery instead he shipped a cheap ass 3500mah chinese battery and door you can get on ebay for $8.
This has been the strangest battery. After the second cycle I got 2300mAh out of it, but the phone was randomly shutting off. It started behaving after that though.
From what I understand some of these no name batteries come from good manufacturers' fail bins. They sell them off cheap instead of dumping them in landfill. So if that is the case, it's kind of a gamble.

Hello,
I buy my gold battery from the webstore pixinf.com they are cheaper than ebay and have fast shipping. The battery work more than 2 times than original one.
They give 2 years warranty and the battery is made on japan. :victory:
Regards
I just got the gold battery from eBay. 2430MAH along with the battery charger for charging the battery externally. It was about $8.50 and comes within a week. Just search i9000 gold battery. I'm pretty sure I've got it calibrated. With light use I get up to 13 hours so far and up to 10 hours approximately with heavier use. Amazing buy so far

Ive been looking on ebay for a extended battery besides the only 2 that have in depth reviews on here (the 3500mah bat and the 2200mah fat boy bat) ive found a andida thats 1600 mah on ebay but before i buy it was wondering if andida are good brands? there isnt a review of this bat manufacturer.
The other bat i found that excites me is the htc rezound battery on ebay model battery number (BTR6425B) the description says its compatible with the wildfire s but once again im trying to find users who tried it. BTW the rezound auction i emailed the seller and he hasnt answered my email and its been over a week, sounds suspicious dont it?

i prefer extended bats that dont require an extra cover since i really need a good case to fit over it.

Golden Battery
I bought this one and it make a real difference
Almost double the MaH, so if your rooted and over clock you battery doesnt die right away
I mean solid 806 mhz, over clock with screen always on +music and constant input
About 4 and Half hours
Its really cheap as well
Go to ebay and type in

Really? I've read on many forums and threads that gold battery are mostly fakes and may harm your phone, other than not giving you what you paid for..

It has been more than 2 years since I'm using my Good Old trustworthy Galaxy S2.I think it's time to change my battery.
So here's my question: What battery shall I use? I know samsung batteries are the best,but I don't want to buy the stock 1650 Mah battery.Also,I don't want the 2000 Mah battery from samsung,because it needs a bigger Battery cover,and most of the cases/covers become unusable this way.
What battery should I buy from eBay? (This is where I will buy,and my budget is max 10$).I want an extended battery,which has a better battery life
and it is good and trustworthy.

No batteries the same size will give you more than real 1700 mah. when they write 2300 mah, they are lying, if you open them you will see the same cells as a regular 1650 mah from samsung.
Just get a good quality one.
I'm also in same boat like OP and was planning to get original Samsung 2000mah one but cant find it anywhere in India

Why not the 2k from samsung? The back plate is as thick as the bottom part of the phone. So you won't really feel a difference.
and the camera will be protected better.

Well, if it runs better on your htc than the stock battery, then get one. The chance is high that the S2 Anker is also good then.
Hi,
I have an One M9 which needs a new battery. Does anyone have a suggestion what to get? All I could find (here in Germany) was a battery from PolarCell, which did not get good customer reviews, or doubtful "original" batteries.
Any brand would do it. I'll have to check if they are available here anyways.
Thx
I just opted to buy from one from the ebay sellers that sell used ones....probably from service centres getting rid of them in bulk. The first one I got was not great, only holding around 2200mah according to accubattery. I complained and had another one sent which was much better, accubattery reading a stored charge of around 2700mah. So yeah, in the end I got a decent battery for around £4.50. (+ a spare 2200mah battery).

Polarcell batterys have always been my favourite battery of choice to go for!
German made (Those bastards make good products) and slightly larger capacity!
