I'm wanting to get a replacement battery but I don't want to buy a dud. I've noticed a couple of companies selling genuine/orignal batteries and to be fair they do look EXACTLY like the samsunt branded battery that came with my TyTN II. However, on closer inspection, in the top left corner of the pictures the battery doesn't say Samsung. Can't really make out what the brand is.
Anyway, my question is, did anyone get a battery supplied with their TyTN II that was not Samsund branded and looked like the batteries in the following listing?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....m=170230086920&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=007
Considering it is from a power seller and the price isn't to low, i would go for it.
That's the exact battery in mine. Mine doesn't say Samsung. It says Dynapak on the top. idk that one deff. seems legit.
Cheers guys. You've been a great help
well you better get batteries from an authorized agent - they could cost you your device. the batteries you shown looks OK but you need to be definite so go to agent and ask for them, you may pay slightly more but you could also save yourself a headache
Mine is Samsung, I never heard of dynapack. I wouldent buy it .
if you look at the top left corner, you will see dynapak. its legit, never gave me problems great battery life too.
Dynapak here as well.

My original battery is a DynaPack. SOmewhere on here is a thread where people posted the models of their original batteries. There might have been 3 or more variations.
Both are oem. Either Samsung or Dynapack will be fine. My original battery was Dynapack. The replacement is Samsung. I had my battery replaced because it was less than a year old and losing capacity. The ATT warranty will replace it for free.
Dynapack here also in my Tilt. Model KAIS160, 1350mAh.
Hi
I would like to buy another battery, but I don't know what parameters I have to figures out in the search. Can someone tell me what characteristic the new battery must have? Do you think that buy a battery of more capacity [like 1600 mAh] could be better? I use a lot the wi-fi and it consume a lot of power...
I saw battery of 1600 mAh costing less than 1350 ones.... Are they sh*t?
Thanks
extended battery with door
You can get non-oem standard 1000+mAh for 23 bucks at
http://www.wirester.com/at-t-8925-htc-kaiser-tytn-ii-li-ion-battery.html
You can also get non-oem extended 2400mAh with door for 35 bucks at wirester as well
http://www.wirester.com/att-tilt-8925-htc-tytn-ii-kaiser-li-ion-extended-battery-with-door.html
I got the extended one. haven't used it though.
Thanks for the reply.
If it is possible I will buy a battery without extend the back-door because if the PDA become thicker I will have some problem to fit in the car holder...
But my question is related to the characteristic. In the Italian ebay I saw a lot of 1350 mAh battery that cost from 6 to 40 € and I don't understand the reason...
I don't know, also, if the battery with more than 1350 mAh are useful, because on of my friends had bought a xlarge battery for his PSP and the time of using is reduced compare to the original...
I'm confused... Can you help me? If someone have bought non original battery can tell me the characteristic and his opinion compare to the original one?
Thanks
My first Tilt had a Samsung in it. The rear speaker failed after a month, so i got an entire boxed replacement at the store and it had a Dynapack in it. Havent had a single complaint with the 2nd unit i got with the Dynapack battery. Heck, i think even the battery life is better with the Dynapack than the Samsung one I had first.
Thanks for your advice. I've found some Dynapack in ebay.it and I think I will buy this.
If I will have more info about I will tell you!
Thanks Bye

The battery of the highest mAh that remain of the same size of the original that I found is 1600 mAh...
Bye
there are only a few differences i can see with it vs mine... with that one, it has a DC##etc under the bar code, i have a S/N: ###etc.
The one i had in mine was a Samsung, model KAIS160, rating 3.7VDC, 1350 mAh, 4.2BDC
Of course, i did buy a used device, but i believe it was the OEM battery...

I finally got around to looking today, and it seems that there's an official 1500mAh battery to fit in the HD2...but I can't seem to find any reliable (other-than-chinese-ebay-seller) confirmation that it fits in the Tmo US version. I'm fairly confident that it will, but would love to know for sure.
Has anybody tried this one yet (or any other 1500mAh stock-size batteries), and if so do you get much more time out of regular use?
This is the one I'm referring to: HTC 35H00128-00M Li-Ion Standard battery

They probably got the size wrong. This site is saying it's the same battery that ships with the HD2. HTC never made a 1500mah battery for the HD2.
that would be perfect!!! a 1500 sized battery would easily grant me 2-4 extra battery life... and thats all i need tbh...
the stupid sprint evo phone... is coming with a 1500 battery.. and thats practically a replica of our hd2... so it makes no sense as to why manufacturers are unable to make a 1500 battery.. it is completely mind boggling...

I'm sure the evos battery will be bigger in dimensions, though. They can only fit so much power in lithium batteries. If it was possible to fit 1500mah into a battery the size of our HD2s, I'm sure someone would have done it. Lithium battery technology is the same it was 5 years ago... there's not much they can do about it right now.

Yeah, and if I'd bothered to just take mine out and compare the model number, I would have noticed that
It's stupid though that when you google that part number, there's a number of places listing it as 1500mAh.
I agree with the "they can only pack so much into a set amount of space" theory, but...there ended up being some higher-than-1500mAh (which is stock capacity) batteries for the TP2, that fit in the same space. However, I know that they probably put the largest capacity they could in the HD2 right from the start, it's obvious that 1230mAh part is barely adequate.
Check the link again , they just change to 1230mah .

I doubt they will be compatible, would be nice.
Today I noticed that my battery was swollen enough to make the back cover look bulged. I got a new battery and it is now working fine. If you're curious enough about why it got swollen, maybe that was overcharging OR I was unlucky enough to get a bad quality battery.
any ways the new battery what I got is different model, It is "B600BC" and says "Cell made in korea, assembled in china" whereas the one that come in box is "B600BE" and only says "Made in china".
I'm not sure which model is latest.
Please post what model is of your battery, just remove the battery, it is written on the side that faces the phone.
My is made in Korea, asssembled in Vietnam O.O . Model is B600BE and I got it as stock with my i9505 - Poland.

I had the same problem. Battery swollen and my phone was shutting down randomly. I was forced to buy a new battery and now everything is fine.
My old battery lasted 2 months so this is kinda scary.

Mine is B600BE, Made in China. I have I9500
I think BE should be newer (tho i bought my S4 first week of release) following how Samsung releases ROMs. MDK after MDE, Something like dat.

Yea I see the logic, maybe BE is newer but the battery that swelled was also BE model. I now have a BC model so I think I'm on the safe side.

Samsung Battery
I have the same problem here. Got a swollen battery but now, my back plate can hardly close perfect. I have the B600BC and my back plate was closing fine but my battery was dead so i replaced it. I didn't know about the difference un till i bought a new one which is the B600BE. You guys have an idea that maybe i have to replace my back plate?
BE version, made in Korea and assembled in Vietnam.
Haven't had that issue (yet?)
However I did have a couple of Nokia batteries do that to me in the past, I also remember reading about Apple and HP laptop batteries having the same issue a few years back.
I'm (70%) certain that this is usually caused by heat... Or storing it with too much/little power... Try to never let it get over 30°C for too long and always store battery packs with 40% charge, no more, no less, when not using for long periods of time... Swelling is the first warning of a battery that's about to explode.

I also have a B600BE came with my I9500.
It is supposed to have 2600mAh capacity and Samsung mentioned the same on it. But when I checked its capacity with some applications on playstore it shows only 2100mAh. Has any one checked it? Please reply with your battery capacities.
Application which I used to check capacity is Battery monitor widget.
Thought I should add some info...
My previous S4 was stolen a few months ago... And (a week before the release of the S5) I went and purchased another S4 at full price...
Lamenting aside.... The battery on this one is also a B600BE however it does seem to run a lot colder and last a slight bit longer...
Not sure if this is due to firmware / software changes, though I'm pretty certain I'm running more battery intensive apps than before, maybe there are differences in quality within the same versions...

It isn't uncommon for the same batch of batteries to have different performance.
Samsung acknowledged the problem of swelling with the batch of batteries with serial number starting BD. They will replace any defective battery free of charge
I don't think new S4s purchased now have any issues though

Here B600BE on i9505, in europe.
Yet another fantastic thread discovering the America for 600 times...
going back, the swelling batteries issue was limited to the batch which SERIAL NUMBER was beginning from BD.
and please, do not mix the TYPE with the BATCH....

B600BE version, made in Korea and assembled in Vietnam.
replacement from aliexpress, suppose to be fake B600BC cell made in Korea and assembled in CHINA
Replacement have a bit worse lifetime (use as spare for long trips and skiing)

Hello there,
I recently bought an generic 7600mah extended battery for my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 from a website. As you can see, this particular battery is made in China. I am wondering if whoever here has bought this one also or do you have any opinions or comments about this battery. Did the battery satisfied your needs or meet your expectations? How was it? I have attached images of the said battery, kindly check it out. Thank you so much for your comments and time.
P.S.
I peeled off its sticker cover and found out there is a label on the battery case that says 3600mah. I also checked it out on my phone's battery monitor app and it has a reading of 3600mah. I asked the seller about this and he told me that the battery monitor app can only read batteries in a maximum of 3600mah. He also uses this battery also and he told me that it surpasses his expectations. Any thoughts about this?
He also told me for the first 3 times, I must let the battery fully-drained and fully-charged it without answering or making calls so that it could correctly calibrate itself.
You, sir, have been fooled...
(Must be rooted)
Use Root Explorer or Equivalent.
(Can adb or command pull/ push with line if your know how inside twrp or on pc)
DIRECTORY: /etc/floating_feature.xml
Open it and Scroll or search until you see the capacity String value ...
Change it to the MAH of your desired battery.
Disclaimer: Any edits being made to batteries, charge speeds, % values, etc , can cause fires,
Do these at your own risk.
What is the purpose of this?

Theoretically, to make use of a larger capacity battery or else it'll show the same stock capacity regardless of it's real capacity.
Now I don't know how it is For S7/Edge or Samsung devices but I previously owned several HTC devices. The last I had was One S and it could accomodate the battery from One XL (same size but bigger capacity). Many have tried and replaced it but even the new capacity was shown correctly, phone wasn't using it at full. After researches it came out that, for effectively using a bigger capacity battery it was needed a new kernel compiled to make use of the new battery capacity.
My point is that, you might need that as well here and I really doubt that anyone can compile from source a kernel for Exynos that can contain such changes as I know that sources are proprietary not open. You might fit a bigger capacity battery but it could be that you won't benefit from it's increased size

There are reference files in the kernel ...
They reference battery capacity...
They are based off of a capacity % value
Basically an of/if command ... so in theory...
(Update: the theory was correct)
And a framework.res edit did suffice.
The file inside of framework-res res/xml/power_profile.xml
referenced a 3600mah battery ...
And the purpose of this is of course...
an aftermarket , fully synced , and properly programmed battery @ larger capacity 4200mah
To track all stats natively in any android rom
I use my device pretty heavy with it....
Background youtube, pandora, games, etc...
Stock S7 edge kernel/boot.img , modified build.prop (TeKHd Rom)
Also calibrated battery after changing the capacity values

This is my second time purchasing the same aftermarket battery... first time I installed it into a G928A (s6 edge plus)
Now ive installed it in this device... ive gone several months without seeing charge/discharge loss...
But heres the next question... say... you go through 2 batteries a year... 15$ each....
Would that not be worth the extra phone on time anyways?

you can break out ohms law and calculate power
( find something that runs off the same voltage , and run the tests yourself for discharge rate @ hours )
Yamaha169 said:
Well, to me... thats arguing a moot point...
Thats like asking me how i know im getting a gallon of gas at the pump.
But... the evidence is in the calculation of the user ... because there are FAR too many variables ...
There are applications that track power loss by MAH (mili-amp hour) if you use over the stock MAH rating... it would have a larger storage capacity.
Or you can break out ohms law and calculate power , disect this battery and beat your head against a post ..

im sorry my english isn't that good but i think the capacity of this battery is not related to the user nor there are many variables.
Probably i didnt used the right words but what i was asking for is for example:
Connect the battery to a constant current load and measure the time it takes to discharge the battery to a certain voltage.
Capacity in Ah = Current in Amperes * Time in hours
that would give a good overview of the real capacity without using a fishy app or harassing a post
