I was wondering if there's a place that we can get replacement battery for Nexus 5. Since the battery cover of our phone is really easy to take off, so I guess some of us will need at least 1 replacement battery in the near future. So if you know a trustworthy place to buy battery please let us know. Thanks in advance.
How to take off battery cover Video and Article
ebay
Here's a video on youtube how to do it, and where to get the pry tool and battery.

My girlfriend has a Samsung Infuse 4G. She has an external battery charger and a second battery for swapping in the middle of the day. She managed to get the extra battery for about $30 through AT&T.
I just got my T-mobile SGS2 and I'm trying to get a second battery from tmobile, but as of yesterday they do not carry extra batteries for it yet, either in store or by phone.
I am wondering if her battery will work in my phone. She could order me one right now if they are compatible. It would actually make our lives a bit easier if we had interchangeable batteries.
I took a picture of them side by side. My battery is on the left, hers on the right. the only difference appears to be that mine says 6.85Wh and hers says 6.48Wh. Also mine mentions NFC right on the battery.
anyone know what Wh means? anyone know if these batteries are interchangeable? could I damage my phone if I put her battery in it, or vice versa?
if you use the other battery, you will lose the NFC capabilities
as it's build into the battery
Which really doesn't seem to be an issue since NFC isn't really in use by anyone right now.... So the battery should work? I'd love to find another battery that fits inside the stock case and extends the life of the phone.
Did it work? Update?

exactly my thoughts!!!!!
there are cautious people in this world (just like those drivers in the highway going at very slow speed)
if i was a newbie or not very well tech inclined, i would be afraid to burn my $600 phone by putting in the wrong battery
that's the most logical reason why

so he's asking people to burn their phone? LOL
no, I'm not asking anybody else to try it. im asking you guys if there's any chance of damaging the phone if I try it.
I don't know what Wh means on the battery. Does anyone here?
it's safe to do it, in case you didn't quite get the hint on my original reply
just take it out if you think that thing is burning up...
there doesn't seem any point in trying the swap now. Tmobile is offering a spare battery and battery docking station with external battery charger on their website for $50. It was just recently added to the website.
besides, losing NFC might not be a big deal at the moment, but down the road it could lead to not having your credit card available when you need it, based on the battery you grabbed that day.
often those external chargers go for $5-$10 on ebay alone. so getting the spare battery, another wall charger, and a nice docking station is worth the $50 to me.
find a SGS II cradle from ebay, used a few days, everythine seems perfect.
i was alwas forget to charge the phone, you know, the SGS II, really battery killer, it drains out in half a day, since i have this, every time i seat in front of my desk, get start to work, the cradle seem like a magic pull me to insert my phone in it.
that's fun! never forget charge my phone since then, really like it, it's already become part of my life.
oh, try search "anker cradle for i9100" on ebay if your want too.
These are good docks there as a few of these on ebay and other web sites under other name but the same thing.
Yes well worth having.
does it means that you're very often charging it even if battery isn't empty? doesn't it "kill" the battery?

Li-on batteries don't have "memory" so you can charge it whenever:

Thanks
I'm looking to purchase a battery that I don't need a different back cover for.
I get pretty good life out of mine, a day easily getting me from charge to charge however I just want an extra one to carry for those long days when I'm out.
I've looked about but im confused as a lot seem to be cheap fakes and I don't want to damage my phone in any way, on the other hand I don't want to pay through the nose either.
Can someone point me in the right direction to a tried and tested battery.
Thanks in advance

Ive got one of these. There are ok for a spare battery. Last me a day and abit
http://www.obostore.com/2100mah-andida-spare-battery-for-samsung-galaxy-nexus-p-4407.html
I would suggest you to get the OEM battery. They are really priced reasonably, with NFC, and warranty.
Unless you want to experiment with batteries, try to stick to OEM instead of 3rd party manufacturers

It is about your battery, it is dead. If your phone have warranty, send it. Because I suffered this on my old 2 orginal batteries and one bought from amazon. Buy a new an orginal battery or buy an MPJ battery

I dont know the battery you are talking about. But read customer comments before purchase it. Because some batteries cause your problem. Be careful.

To find out which month it was made. If you have the box you will see the numbers i'm talking about.
did you buy second hand or brand new.
Reading your subsequent comments, which battery are you using ?
Is this an original. There are fakes going around.

if its new then the battery in the box should be good. The extras may or may not be.
What month year is printed on the battery ?
See this thread whether it helps to spot anything about battery.

I dont know yet whether your problem is due to battery or the phone..
Seems I'm one of many with this phone with a battery problem and it looks like I would need to replace it.
Can anyone recommend me a site where I can get a good and reliable replacement battery?
Thanks
I would like to know an answer to this too.
claiming in....
Not really looking forward to unglue the screen, take out every single piece just to replace battery... but i don't really wanna update to a SD835 device yet... and SD845 are a long way ahead... 6-8months at least. So yeah -.- have to replace battery probably.
