Lol, my bad on clicking thanks, i wanted to click on quote
Does the optimus LTE phone use the same battery as the Nitro HD? If it does, then try looking for that one.

thanks for the thanks
i'll check but i think i read the optimus battery is different.
$40 for the "official" spare battery from AT&T:
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...ssoryBucket&q_sku=sku5520227#fbid=aQi6sm_4Fs8
Item SKU: 40856(Standard Li-Ion 1830 mAH Battery - LG Nitro (TM) HD)
Battery Model: BL-49kh (Made by SunPow Industrial).
Did some preliminary searches on 'BL-49kh' but not much luck...So it seems the only option at the moment is an official one.
Is there a way to call LG and complain about a bad battery and then they'll ship you a new one, just so we can get a spare battery for free? I know it works with Motorola; I called them and complaint that it was draining much too fast for what it should be, they asked a few simple question, and boom, they shipped me a new one for free.

Yes, they are BOTH LG-P930
For the price, I personally prefer a portable USB Charger. It's more versatile (a spare battery is only going to work in that particular phone) and doesn't require popping the back of the phone off and swapping out the battery and having to reboot.
Here's a decent one for a decent price too:

That is a great idea, never rly thought of doing it dat way. I just don't like how I have to be attached to the charger device that's all
I might just try to get the battery from LG directly for free and buy the AC charger for it.
Why don't anybody try calling LG Cust. Service and see whether they will ship you one for free? Just say it's defective and drains too fast. I'd try but I don't have the phone yet rofl!

get the Trent brand from amazon, they have a huge capacity.
I was reading all the post and no body says if already get a new battery replacement for the Nexus 5, I'm in the USA for vacation and I want to buy one battery for a future replacement. Please share your experience with us or say where can we buy a new one (OEM or equivalent)in a store or online. Thanks.
You will get the same type of original battery. And opening your nexus 5 may void warranty (LG services center "conditions apply" ). But for future replacement, I don't think anything will happened to this battery. LCD Screen (with digitizer assembly) should be your choice for future replacement.
So for USA, you can buy battery here is your link: (Its original battery.)

Destroying your phone for an extra 300mAh doesn't seem reasonable to me, but to each their own.

It's generally not recommended to buy a battery for "future replacement" because the battery is always degrading even just sitting on your shelf. It's recommended to buy a replacement battery only when you require the replacement battery.

Thanks for the explanation, but I have to do it because I am from Colombia and there is really difficult to get an OEM battery for the Nexus 5. So I want to take advantage while I am in USA and buy it.

Oh I see, I guess ordering it online isn't really an option from your home country? I don't think there will be any retail store with OEM Nexus 5 batteries, I think you would need to get it from a website such as etradesupply or equivalent.

You are right, we don't have a retail store who sell OEM parts or an official LG service, so I have to buy it here. In Colombia you can buy original parts for the most popular cells in the country but the Nexus 5 isn't one of them because they (Google) don't sell it there. I have to import it
I bought my nexus 5 directly in the play store, I have to buy the battery for the D820 version, for the D821 version or it doesn't matter? Thanks to all.
They all have the same internal specs. The battery should be fine, just as the screens and anything else.

If you want to buy only 1, then LG service center (with warranty you get). If you want more in quantity then try that site.
cant you just buy one on eBay and have it posted to you when you need a replacement? as someone said earlier if you buy a replacement now but don't use it for a year it will not be as good as a new battery
There are a lot of fake batteries on eBay so buyer beware.

I had a chat with LG and they asked me to send my phone to their service center in Texas... I wasn't able to ask for the price because the chat was cut off... nvm... I just bought a new Galaxy S4 again as a backup phone.
Best bet, for my money: https://lg.encompass.com/item/10389517/LG/EAC62078701/Rechargeable_Battery,lithium_Polymer. Originally posted here, Post 175.
I haven't decided to replace mine, yet. Fortunately, I can charge often and carry a power bank.
I bought the Polarcell 2450 mAh on the bay, for 23€
Battery life is now simply amazing.
Charging time is a little bit long (I don't enable the fast charge kernel option that scr#wed my previous original battery)
I couldn't reccomend it more. I can do a whole day with intense use.
Of course I use greenify, and tweak some CPU/voltage options
I use PureNexus ROM
I suffer from terrible battery charge anxiety. I always carry a second battery and have another cooking in the charger. Are the LG G3 and G4 batteries interchargeable? Any recommendations on purchasing additional batteries and a charger for the G4?
I've read elsewhere they are not interchangeable. I have not seen any replacement compatible batteries available yet in the UK but given it was only released here last week that doesn't surprise me.
The G3 batteries have little feet at the bottom of the battery that make them incompatible with the G4 unfortunately.
Hello. I came across the same situation actually. My brother had a LG G3 and ordered a spare battery. Then he sent his phone in for a refund, and got a new one. I noticed the dimensions of G3 and G4 batteries are identical, however the G3 batteries do have these 2 jutting-out parts at the bottom. So I sandpapered them till they were flat, and it fit perfectly into the G4....
Amazon or eBay
Search extended battery
I have both g3 and g4 and g4 battery fits in my g3 perfectly no mods
I have read everywhere that the positions of the voltage are reversed between G3 and G4 so be carefull !

I dont know I use my old g4 batt in my g3 and it seems to work ok other than the batt being really old and crap
But my g3 is hardbricked and have not un bricked it yet so I cant confirm it works when os is booted but when I press power is flashes red and blue so its accepting the batt at least

No old menu, just 3-4 homescreens is the most terrifying for me and the new phones i saw have no menu, where you can arrange apps and folders, they dont even have a menu button. For some reason this is freaking me out. ? They were mostly Xiaomi, Samsung, and Huawei btw.

I was considering getting an H815 for use on AT&T instead of the new Moto. It appears that you can easily unlock the bootloader. It currently costs less than $450 on Amazon for a 32G leather version. It has an SD card, replaceable battery, great camera, and a good SOC (that does not have issues like the 810). So, why are there so few roms for it? I won't buy a phone unless it is first well-supported on XDA.

H815 will not work with VZ. You have to buy the VZ variant so no unlocked bootloader but can be rooted.

As for ROMs, I have been noticing that for a few years on a lot of phones. If you want ROM's, you really need to stock with Nexus devices these days.
I have bought a G4 and luckily mine could be rooted. But yes, there are very few roms available and as a former Samsung user I must say I'm very disappointed with the help you get on the forums. Most queries aren't answered. If I were you I'd stick to HTC.
@phoneturf the h811 is the most prevalent version. I wouldnt get the 815.

Here it is a month later and the support for none of the G4 variants appears to have changed. There are a couple of stock roms for the T-mobile version, but doing a little reading I cannot even tell if there's a working TWRP or CWM for it. I decided to check back with the G4 since now I am instead considering a V10, although I suppose now I won't really consider that one either - I really wanted a replaceable battery and SD card.. If they sold one with an unlockable bootloader for all carriers, like Nexus, Moto, or OnePlus, I assume there would be much more support.
I bought a used G4 815 on Ebay, before I know that only the EU version could be opened (will see what's arriving in a day or two )
Is there any work being done on an Unofficial bootloader unlock?
I saw that the G3 does have allot of roms, did that phone was in the same situation as the G4 at it's beginning?

The G3 was originally in the same boat as the G4 as well in the beginning. That's why everyone is saying stfu and wait. A lot of folks just look at Nexus and other easy unlocks then expect everything to come into their laps within seconds.
And there is an unofficial bootloader unlock in the works. BUT it appears it only works if you haven't taken an OTA update before. All in good time my friend.

Take a look, it may do what you need it to and have some extra features added in as a bonus.
Only problem is I do not know what the dev community will be like for this phone.

Had some guy tell my phone is a clone once comparing it to his Canadian G4. I said good one lol
My bootloader is unlocked. I am rooted using DirtyUnicorns
Certain roms don't work on my phone though even if they are h811.... It simply doesn't like them
I just took apart my phone and took a chip off and on to get it back to working after flashing a bad ROM/kernel as well. It would not fix the problem going back to stock
I'm out of warranty. No bootloop here though. Although unless something new comes along worthwhile that is stable
I don't plan on taking it apart again to troubleshoot for hours because of a sloppy developer
Some ROMs alter or damage your device
