Extended battery question

I got an extended battery of amazon. It was listed as 3500...but it read 4000 when i put it. It read 80% charge.
Good for me? Bad news? Did they send me a different battery? Will it melt my phone?

Has it worked well for you? So far I received that battery and it was at 80% at 5:00 PM EST yesterday. I haven't charged it and I've been waiting for it to run dead to cycle the battery.
Along with playing angry birds, leaving wifi and gps ON, playing my local radio station, facebook, xda, and others.....It is now 4:10 PM EST and it's finally at 15%

Battery looks like it expanded inside..

Quick question, I've got a bricked evo that I have'nt touched in months. The battery has been useless inside the phone's box since then but a couple of days ago I noticed the battery looks like it expanded or exploded from the inside. Any idea of what could of caused this?
Very curious.

If it was never charged for a while and left on a cool environment I would say that the battery was just bad, if you had it on a hot place like on the glove compartment inside your car then it overheated. Either way I hope you discard it.

Any lump on a battery means you need to dispose of it..I've heard of some crazy stuff lol.

Dispose of it immediately. If you try to use it or charge it, it will likely explode.

Oh I would never attempt to use it again, I was just a little curious as to why this would happen. Thanks all!

It could just be one of the few bad batteries. I got that package and mine still holds a great charge.

Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

for $5 it doesn't really bother me to test it. turns out it is a 3500, maybe it'll be alright.

I thought of putting this topic up because i saw how crazy the battery Life is. I put it charge at the time when i was not thinking to put the topic up(for about 2 minutes when the battery was at 32% or so). And thats why it says discharging!

8 hours of on screen time is not reasonable. The percentage is not of the battery time, it's how much battery was used by the display.
He needs to show his on screen time by actually clicking on Screen Display.

Correct, his estimation was simply outrageous. There are many factors that determine how much battery the display consumes. The biggest is the brightness at which the display was at the entire time, 0% brightness obviously last much longer than 100% brightness. Also the types of colors being displayed, dark colors on a OLED display drain less battery than bright colors.

I find ways to have better battery life. Obviously if you have brightness at 100% it will kill battery unless you have a better battery regardless

Again....display on time? People always want to show off the best battery reports but never know how. That screenshot means very little, my guess is your phone was deep sleeping 3/4 that time.

[Q] Battery Question

I use my phone a LOT. Everyday, I end up charging it from around 30% to fully charged about two or three times a day.
How is this going to affect the life of my battery? How long should I expect my battery to last at this rate? I've never given it much thought before, as I've always had a removable battery, making replacement cheap and easy, but the LGOG just has to be different...

Dude stop being so OCD. A battery is good for about 2 years and by then who cares if the battery goes bad.

Thanks. I didn't consider it being OCD. As I said, I've never really thought of it before, and I was just curious. Thanks again!
