Hi all
Does anyone know where i can find a legit replacement battery for my phone. I look at amazon and they either look too cheap or have terrible reviews. Where can i get official batteries for about 20 pounds or less. I live in the UK.
Thanks
"Craftmann" makes not bad batteries. Check this.
Do you have a link? I heard that only the oem battery was recommended.
I bought it directly from Samsung. There was a review on a german site, which showed that 12 out of 12 batteries from amazon were faked ones.

What about this one?
http://www.ebay.de/itm/2100mah-Akku...90-Batterie-original-B500BE-NFC-/151630886545
i just replaced my battery with the oem one although i bought it for like 9€ from a local shop.
although it lasts a bit longer, when it gets to around 30% then its no more stable and it will possible have the the usual behaviour we all know dropping instantly to 20-10% in minutes etc...
anyways....is there something we have to do when we replace a battery? Are there and battery stats or something that we have to reset or tickle so that Android will "learn" the new installed battery is in place?

You probably bought a counterfeit battery.
As stated above most of the OEM Samsung Batteries that are sold are faked.

hmmm you may unfortunatelly be right....:| is there a way to identify? i guess that would be hard.
any others "good ones" like Craftmann that sb mentioned here?
anyone has any 1900mah battery to suggest please?
Not looking for extreme capacities and stuff, but one that you have tested and behaves just like or close to when we all had the original battery that came with the phone.
Someone recommended the Deji battery but there is no way on earth i can find somewhere else than this Turkish shop
I have been on TechOrbits battery bought at Amazon.com for about two weeks now and am satisfied with it. They have warranty, so if the battery bloats (which happened to the previous eBay knock-off in just one year) I could get it replaced.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M5EK96F/
i would really go down and get this one
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/39677-of...-1900mah-standard-battery-Reviews.htm#reviews
judging by so many positive comments i think its the safest bet so far, so many fakes....i bought one for 8€ and it sucks badly.its getting close to the performance my 3year old official battery had.
Having lost my original battery and having to rely on a cheap ebay battery I thought I'd try mobilefun. THey shipped immediately, battery arrived in what looked like official Samsung packaging. So far so good, battery lasts much longer than my cheap ebay option and probably longer than my original battery but I dont have any stats to back that up. Battery discharge is slow and steady unlike the cheap ebay option which I've found tends to drop off a cliff when it drops below 15%. I can confirm that NFC works as well. Still early days but the signs look promising.
There are genuine Samsung batteries on eBay, the best bet is listings that include a photo of the packaging. A seller that is closer to home is preferred as well (if your home is not China or Hong Kong, anyway).

I have the same behavior as well with my 1900 mA battery although I bought it from an official store for around 27 USD.
This behavior appeared only few months after purchase.
Now the battery charges in 2 hours and 5 minutes and lasts for 6 or 7 hours only (normal usage).

Reviving the thread with hope
My original battery is dead, she worked for a long time, she deserves peace. The problem is founding a new one!
I bought one from ebay but it's REALLY bad. Do I have to throw out my loved S4 mini cause there are no adequate replacements avalible? Someone knows a good place to buy it in 2020?
On my side I'm using a battery from Gadfull (can be found on amazon in some EU country). I've been using one for almost 3 years and for 2.5 years the capacity was good. I will get a new one this week.

I bought one from hagnaven and it seems good as well. so glad that i still can use this phone!
can anyone recommend a good place to buy an oem battery that ships to canada or from canada ideally? thanks in advance...
http://www.amazon.ca/s/ref=nb_sb_no...arch-alias=aps&field-keywords=nexus+5+battery
thanks did you happen to order one of those?

No, I live in the states, just did a quick check, the just make sure that it looks like you are purchasing from a reputable seller.
I have ordered from http://www.repairsuniverse.com before, and they do international shipping, I wasn't sure at first so I didn't post them up.
Btw, what part of Canada are you in?
Same boat as you, located in Canada and needed a new battery for my N5.
Ordered from purebrindle on ebay (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/252020872255?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT) and it was counterfeit. Battery was DOA
Then ordered from gdcdirect on ebay (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/261431163466?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT) and it works great. A little expensive but worth it for a reputable seller imo.
Hope this helps
thanks for the posts... after all the 5x dealbreaker leaks im keeping the n5 so need a new battery...currently living in alberta...
Sent from my Nexus 9
just to follow up it seems the battery from gdc direct is fake...it didn't say lg on the back like original, can literally see it drain with screen on and seems to stick around 29 °c all the time...at this point im probably just getting the oneplusx ...
called LG canada and they told me this place sells the original battery and its just under $60 CDN...should have done this in the first place
https://www.reliableparts.ca/locations
just to follow up the battery i bought from the LG Canada recommended place (relieableparts.ca) is a real battery...its more money but at least i have a real battery that will last a few years (and not blow up)
in the process of returning the fake battery from gdcdirect on ebay...hes making it really hard and wanting me to ship back the fake battery to get a refund...avoid this seller!

Do you have the part number of the battery that you bought on Realiableparts.ca? I did not find the battery on the website. Thank you!
EDIT: I have called the store and order one by phone. For reference, here's the part number of the battery: EAC62078701

i dont have exact SOT times but my old battery (and lollipop) barely lasted a day but now im getting at 2-3 days of usage...this could also be attributed to doze in android 6 so not scientific testing at all...
I bought a replacement battery for nexus 5 from seller Cell Phone DIY on amazon.ca (seller is based in Toronto).
It arrived like 3~4 days ago and seems good so far. Date stamp on battery was 2015 04 28, back of the battery had label with random codes with "Sony" on it.

does the battery stay at 29 C? if so its fake...im not an expert but i think all real OEM batterys are made by LG but maybe there are some sony
here is an image i got off reddit that compares real to fake:
What should I do to test battery voltage? I assume plugging in to charge? That should heat up the battery, right? or no?
Also, if temperature is fixed at 29.0C, it is fake? is that what you are saying?
How much in temperature change should I be seeing?
**update, when phone is idle I see a temp of 29.4C, when I plug in to AC to charge it dropped to 28.9C within seconds.
I'll check after a bit and see what temp I see.
I did take a picture of the battery I bought before installing... here it is. Seems legit but than again... whom ever made the print can print how ever they can.... so can't really rely on that.
have no idea about voltage just talking temp here..
fake batteries just stay around 29c where a real one will have a much different range of temps (if you never see temps other than 28/29 very good chance you have a fake)

Hello,
I search a replacement battery for my Asus zenfone 2 ml551.
The best I found is on aliexpress
http://fr.aliexpress.com/item/100-O...89.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.268.KE7RFg
I'm not sure about this battery is good and I search other authentic ASUS.
Did you have help ?
I wouldn't buy a battery that is 1.5 years old. Check the date of manufacture, and if it doesn't have one, don't buy it!

I have install in my phone and star normally.
But when I charge batterry always stay to 50%. I try to save data on my computer but the zenfone doesn't appears.
Finally the zenfone shutdown and never restart.
Any idea about trouble ?
Thanks for help
The battery is fully dead now.. It won't turn on.. You probably getting 2 times vibrations while putting on wall charger..
I've been facing this issue a while submitted to service center they replaced the battery.
Fix; you need to navigate to asus service center and buy a original battery from there will be a good idea.
If replacing battery DIY style, make sure it comes from reputable source. Got mine from ebay, advertised as better than original.
Although it holds charge for a day I must not overcharge it, see screenshot.
It gets to 100℅ Then in 5mins drops to 50/25/12/0 and powers off. missed my alarm multiple times now haha
Where can I buy a good battery for ZE551ML?
so we pretty much have to trash our phones when the battery dies? I cant find a battery!!! asus.com amazon.com nothing

Thanks. If you live in USA paying 40 dollars for the battery plus shipping makes you reconsider buying a new phone. I'm traveling to europe in a couple of weeks so might buy a new battery there. Its sad there's no good battery in USA.

I live in Argentina, here a "original" battery costs 100 dollars with 20 days of delay. I'm still running on my original battery, and charging it almost every day at mid day.
Has anyone found a good option in USA?

Yep, I paid $15 on eBay for this battery. I've only had it for a couple of weeks, but my SOT doubled (went from <2 hours to being >4 hours), and my quick charge works again (on last battery, it stopped working).
The battery is slightly different from my original one (model # wasn't exactly the same, and the version # of the adapter on the battery wasn't the same). It was kind of a pain in the ass to install, but it still worked after I installed it.
I can't promise that you'll have the same experience, but the seller is highly rated and there is a 30-day return period.

This is so god damn expensive, the shipping to US costs as much as the battery costs.
Has anyone had a good experience with an eBay or AMazon seller?
Hello everyone, Is there a way to know how much actual capacity (mah) is available on my zenfone ze550ml battery?
The AccuBattery app claims to calculate the actual capacity of your battery (mah) and the more charging cycles you make the better the accuracy of the estimation (although, judging from my case, the estimation does not change a lot after the first cycle)
I had my battery replaced while in Taipei for a cost of NTD 1000 (about USD 30) including labor. The Asus service center in Taipei wanted the phone for 3 days; they recommended a shop that did it in 90 minutes. The shop claimed it was an OEM battery, but it seems to discharge more quickly. On the other hand, it doesn't suddenly die with 30-40%.

Don't look like an official one, also what's the deal with the ones that say 3400mah instead of 3000?
Is that even compatible?

And that one says 2900mah instead of the OEM 3000, whats going on? wont using batteries with different sizes than the original be bad for the phone?
Does anyone have any direct experience (not hearsay) or a link to anyone who has actually done actual testing on any replacement batteries.
Ideally, something like what Richard Lloyd has done on youtube to test 18650 batteries.
*** As we can use the google machine, please refrain from links saying "this battery sucks" or "this is the best ever!". Reviews on amazon, ebay, aliexpress and others can be bought for pennies.
It would be great to see someone doing math and using electrical measurements, not what an app reports. ***
----------------------------------
So, two-ish years later and my unlocked HTC 10's battery is starting to go.
I'm using the latest build of Leedroid's rom and no, it is not the rom.
I have replaced batteries in the past and feel like I should give it a shot even though HTC made it a b*tch to change.
Why I'm asking: I changed the battery on a past phone and it worked pretty well for 6-ish months. Then, it exploded and cracked the lcd and g glass screen.
So, trying to avoid that.
-----------------------------------------------
Facts (as I understand them):
We cannot get a real / genuine HTC 10 battery.
HTC does not sell them.
Anything labeled as such is most likely a Chinese fraud or an actual HTC 10 battery that failed their internal inspection process.
-----------------------------------------------
Does anyone have any experience with the replacement batteries that are for sale on Aliexpress?
Part number: B2PS6100
Brands (stickers?):
Cameron Sino 3000mAh
HSABAT 4300mAh
Ciszean 3000mAh
LOSONCOER 4300mAh
XINBONG 4000mAh
Dxqioo 3000mah
etc....
What buyer did you get your best / working battery from? Details please!
Has anyone ever gotten a reading of more than 3000mah that lasts?
I've read on oneplus forums that many replacement batteries often only provide ~80% of the real battery when new and fully charged (mAh).
Many have concluded that batteries that fail their inspection process are not properly recycled and are being re-branded and sold under new names / stickers.
Comments welcome, hopefully my caveats at the beginning didn't scare off everyone.
Thanks in advance!
Mine is also 18 months old and looking for some alternatives . Hope somebody gonna help us.
I've done mine got it from repairbase.co.uk but haven't done any tests on it other than what an app called acubattery which estimates it's capacity as 2868. I've never fully charged it got it set to only go to 75% in the hope that it'll last longer than the original.
Ref the actual swap it wasn't that bad,
I heated the screen on a microwaved wheat bag
used some suction cup pliers to lift the screen
Cut the glue with a guitar pick
Made a simple diagram on a bit of cardboard to stick the screws in.
I took all the tape off completely stored on a bit of greaseproof paper and was really careful with the screen ribbon.
I replaced my own battery.
I replaced my own battery. I bought it off of ebay from a seller in the US. My phone used to have random boot loops now that no longer happens.
It was difficult. Heating the display and pulling off is a problem. I actually broke my display and severed my ribbon cable for the sim. I replaced those parts and battery change was successful. Now the only issue is the adhesive is not sticking that great. Nothing that affects anything. I just see how the screen slightly gives just a little bit. I do not recommend the double stick tape. Get the special glue!!! Something with a 7000 in the name.
I will be reheating a gluing it in the future. I dread working on this phone. Although I am not a professional I think I did a pretty good job. Other phones are much easier to repair.
I DID NOT notice a super improvement in battery life. My new battery was now back to "Ok" battery life instead of terrible no more bootloops at 20% or when camera is open. There is a problem with the HTC 10 with the cpu using to much, along with wakelocks and wifi. I really wish HTC would address these issues.
I installed LEEDROID have not switched kernal yet. I have getting over 4hours and 30 minutes of on screen time. If I change the kernel and throttle the cpu I may be able to get a little more. The goal is 5 hours.
I am NOT an EXPERT. I am a smart individual through trial and error that can figure many things out. I like to get the most out of my technology I'm not ready to get a new phone. My phone is primarily used for Audiobooks, Youtube, web browsing, texting.
i wanted to replace my battery... but after watching this video i've lost all my motivation ^^
as soon as my battery starts to crash at low percentage i'll take another look at it ^^

Oh.... and i always tought these batteries are from the same manufacturer as the original one but somehow stolen/bought directly at the manufacturing site and sold by private persons.
It is really hard to distinguish a real battery from a fake...
But to know if your battery is full/new or not the only way is an external discharge test.
I've tought about buying one of these https://www.ebay.ch/itm/ZB2L3-Batte...560532?hash=item25e6002a94:g:ag4AAOSwmnFZ4hxs
But it says 3A ... which is a bit much for this poor phone battery.
Having a functioning temperature sensor is critical to the stability and safety of the battery. If you've replaced your battery, use an app like Accubattery to verify the following: an existing thermistor will read a fluctuation in temps anywhere from 20-50C based on usage and ambient heat. Most (all?) of the batteries sold online have only a resistor which will send various inaccurate readings to the phone, typically 25C while charging, and a jump to 35-38C while unplugged (if the plugging/unplugging makes no sudden difference, try putting your phone in the freezer, or going between idle and heavy use to test).
If your replacement battery has an accurate temp sensor, please add to the discussion by telling us where you purchased it.
i bought HSABAT 4300mAh from aliexpress,i replaced the battery .will share with you guys here the results
Shame it's so much effort to change battery my wifes phone always turns off at around 21% now and she doesn't like any of the newer phones most are too big this htc 10 was the max she would go to.
My guess is that a lot of people are going to try in the coming 2-6 months as their battery starts to weaken.
Phone is great. Processor is fast enough and camera is great.
My hope is that we can gather real info and start to get good intel on these battery brands (?).
I don't think changing the battery is particularly easy, but it can be done. (See YouTube)
That being said, I don't want to have to do it more than once.
I hope more people chime in, because I guess many have already and many more will be doing it.

Hey @alicine. I'm really curious about the battery and want to buy it. I have some questions and would really appreciate if you could answer them.
1) Has it exploded yet?
2) Is it the advertised 4300 mAh capasity?
3) How did you make it fit inside the shell? Is it the same dimensions as the 3000 mAh ones?
4) How long does it take to charge & does it still support fast charging?
5) How many hours of SoT are you getting now? (which ROM you're in that would help too)
Thanks in advance.
Tips from experience on M7
One thing about lithion batteries . . . they lose a bit of capacity just sitting on the shelf as matter of simple, natural deterioration. So to a certain extent, the newer the better.
When I replaced the battery on my HTC One M7 it was a similar challenge. My approach to buying a battery was to look closely at the photos and see what the date was on the battery for sale as it should be printed on it. (Some of the sellers don't even know that.) I tried to get the most plausibly recently made battery, within reason. By that I mean, I was concerned that for an older phone there might not be any batteries recently manufactured for it, so a very recently dated battery might be fraudulently remarked/re-dated. If I wasn't sure I queried the seller to find out if they knew what the battery's date was.
I'm not sure my theory is correct about which date battery to shoot for, but I'm still going with that line of thinking
Hi, what about the battery performance with daily use?
@numpaque
I'm not sure what the question is there - batteries lose charge as you use them, then need recharging.
What do you want to know again ?

1-No its not exploded yet, its working very well
2-I guess no , because im having same SoT as i get it when i first buy the phone
3-I removed the screen first,then one by one other compenents.Dimensions are the same
4-Its takin 50-60 mins to charge from %5 to full
6-Stock rom 4-4.5 hours depend on the use
I sent my HTC-10 in for battery replacement through the official service in Germany. This was approx. 6 weeks before my warranty ran out.
Battery performance was really bad with SOT of around 2 hrs, and random shut downs at 20-40% battery capacity.
After 2-3 weeks it came back, and according the delivery paper the battery has been replaced.
But regrettably no improvement could be notified.
So I sent it back again and got it back within approx. 1 week. This time they had replaced the side keys on the Phone, but even this time I could not find any improvement of the battery performance.
So I claimed it a third time, and sent it to the official service again. But now my 24 months warranty was gone….However they still accepted this as a Warranty claim and when I got my phone back after approx. 2-3 weeks it had a new battery, and a new screen.
Since then, the battery performance is good and my phone works more or less like a new one.
I get SOT between 4-5 hrs and no more shut downs and boot loops using stock Oreo.

I sent my HTC-10 in for battery replacement through the official service in Germany. This was approx. 6 weeks before my warranty ran out.
Battery performance was really bad with SOT of around 2 hrs, and random shut downs at 20-40% battery capacity.

got the same issues and replaced battery from official htc service.
well sot was around 3h when i first bought it.now its 4h and battery still 48%.
frined buy it from the same shop 1 week after me and he still got 4h+ sot.so i guess some devices sold with deflected battery?
I have a question since i stumble upon a 4000 mah battery while online shopping yesterday (BN31 the same code with the original MiA1 battery). Is it ok/safe installing this kind of battery? (The battery are not manufactured by Xiaomi)
As long as the ratings are the same as the Xiaomi mi a1's battery it's safe to replace them. But the longevity of them depends on the quality

Most likely the 4000 rating is false, China manufacturers are well known for this.
I received the "chensuper" battery. I've swapped mine with the new one but in cpuz shows 3080 mah like the old one.

It's the same (shame) capacity of the official one so there are not improves on that. But for the price it's a good replacement.

For me there is a bit of improvement but still I'll suggest that you stick with the original battery since mine bloated up due to heavy usage and frequent discharging and charging of the battery. With the original battery, it already reaching its 2 years of life time now since first bought and it need a change of new battery now because the capacity is way to low to even last a half day. :laugh:
I have bought a 5000mah bn31 battery from the brand Losoncoer. When arrived the packaging said 6400mah. I can surely say that after 3 and a half months its capacity is exactly the half of the stated one. Around 3200 mah. But it takes much more time to charge, so I advise everyone to buy original Xiaomi replacement parts.

The moral of the story is, you should always buy genuine parts. Because batteries are typical piece of work. The manufacturing used by the OEM is robust compared to the local ones. So its always far better to buy underived ones. Other stuff like display, digitizer can be taken from third party vendor. But for batteries always choose OEM one.
For me it is still usable, but it has far worse screen on time, so yeah buy genuine batteries.
Altough in my mi a1 the usb-c port died the 4th time in the last 2 years, they always lasted half a year, no matter if i bought genuine part for Replacement or not?

I have no idea at all. At first it will throw away charge at random times. Later it develops worse contact problems. It starts to only charge slowly and at the very end it could only take up charge if I apply force on it sideways.
I charge my phone every night. I used the original cable but lately i am using a blitzwolf branded one.
I have friends whose phone's port only needed a cleaning, but it does not help mine.
yeah
i want to replace my phone's battery can i buy original battery online if not then which battery is good to buy online?
