New battery....3600mAh...

Hello people,
I bought a 3600mAh battery from eBay and just received it couple of hours ago.
So I plugged in the charge cable... and its been a few hours but the battery level still shows as 0%.
Have I gotten a defective battery, or is there something I can do?
Look forward any comments...
Jay.
nowadays I have seen many of this questions; cradle and usb cannot charge a battery like that; I'm using a 3400mAh battery on my pda; had the same problem.
but it works great with charger.
no, i think usb crade should still charge the extended battery, that is, if you can actually fit it in it charges a lot longer though, that's why i always use charger.
Is that made in china?
I have even seen this on my 1490mah battery. I couldn't keep the phone on and charge at the same when the battery was depleted to zero. I had to turn the phone off and let it charge for about an hour and then it would charge. Don't know if its the same thing for you but you may want to try.

[Q] Battery question.

Anyone have any ideas why my phone refuses to charge my battery correctly and the wall charger that came with my two spare batteries does a much better job? If I charge my battery through the phones usb I get maybe 5 hours of use but when I use the charger that came with my 2 cheap spare batteries I'll get 8 to ten no matter which battery I use.
Here is my opinion on the situation.

basically it is charging your battery correctly. The problem you are likly having are
1) your battery stats is off and you ahvent recalibrated it so the phone is stopping the charge early
2) you leave the phone plugged in for long periods of time because the phone does not use a trickle charge process it does nto stay at 100% and can acctually be anywhere from 90-100% charged even though the light is green
the reason there is no trickle charge is to try to prolong the life of the battery. the battery stats is to try and help the phone gauge when to shut the phone off and when to stop charging so it doesnt completly drain the battery or over charge it. both have benefits and draw backs.
try recalibrating your battery so that the phone has a better understanding of the acctual life (you may charge the battery fully in the wall charger then put it in the phone wipe battery stats in recovery and the let it drains till the phone shuts off. recharge it fully and go on your way.
the no trickle not a lot you can really do about that.
Guess that makes sense. So you think I should get a full charge from my wall charger then wipe battery stats from my recovery then let it drain 100 % then full charge it and it should recalibrate it?
And thank you for the help.

Extended Battery - Fully charged only till 87% and rapid discharge

I purchased a 3500 mAh battery off of ebay and fully charged it with one of the ebay wall chargers as well. Once I saw that the charging light shut off and put it into my EVO, at start up, the EVO displays only 87% battery left. I used the battery all the way up until it died, and then using my EVO, i charged the battery until the light turned green, and the same thing happened, the battery life at start up was 87%. I'm running MikG 2.53 w the Aggressive Freedom kernel, if it matters. Everytime so far the battery dies in ~6 hours, which is almost half of what I'm getting from the stock battery and the ebay 2000mAh batteries I have. Any ideas on why i'm only seeing upto 87% charge?
Is it one of those $5.00 ebay batteries?
If it is, then it may be defective.
I had an eBay battery for my HTC Mogul, which would charge until 87%, then the light turned green. If I unplugged it and plugged it back, it would charge a few more minutes then turn green again. After a few days, it would charge until 88%. I continued this process until it charged to 101%. I stopped at that point with the plug and unplug. I never had an issue after that, and used the battery for two years after that before turning the Mogul over to a new owner, who also had no issues. (other than the normal this Mogul is SO SLOW issues.)

I have the same issue with my none OEM battery, I had tried 3 other different brands all have the same issue.
only way i can get it to charge fully on the stock battery is with the wall charger. using it with it plugged into the laptop pretty much just maintains it

[Q] Battery Charge Question

Is it okay to charge the phone when it is not fully out of battery? I usually charge my phone at about 40% and my battery life isn't that great.
yea
Yea its fine
It can actually can actually damage Li-Ion batteries to be fully discharged, especially for extended periods of time. It's also not good for them to be 100% charged for extended periods of time (overnight charges are a fact of life, and your battery will obviously survive). The ideal charge for them is somewhere between 40-80%. So what you're doing is actually good practice: recharge once battery gets below 40. Also, if you aren't going to have to be away from a charger all day long, it's best to unplug at around 80%.
