"Alien Battery"

I just sourced a non-SonyEricsson battery for my phone.
It powers the phone fine but when the phone is plugged in for power charging I get an error message saying that the battery in the phone is "Alien" therefore it will not be charged.
I have to charge the battery through a separate charging box
I suppose there is no software fix for this ?

got this when i was using a k610i battery with my xperia but if i recall i restarted the phone and it started working but otherwise i dont know

why would you use a non-SE battery??

Is this it?

i bought three of them when i first got my xperia.
they were all complete crap.
They never gave accurate battery readings and their life time was very very short and at the end of it left my xperia not being able to turn on - now all 3 of them are so discharged i cant even be bothered to charge them - trust me dont rely on these batteries they are awful

Ever heard Made in Japan "Copy".
hehe.

well just be careful guys with the alien battery. most MADE IN CHINA batteries don't have promissed mAh at all. especialy when cheap. we have a meassuring device in work and evev the 3000something mAh isn't 3000 but just 2500. second, the cheap batteries don't have short circuit protection chip.. so just be careful. mugen may be good, but the 3000mAh they offer isn't simply 3000

Battery HB4F1

What about this battery????
1700MAH HB4F1 Battery For Huawei U8800 i found on ebay
Seems interesting. Have anyone baught?

Should work fine. Nice to know that the U8800 battery is the same as some other Huawei devices too. Should be plenty of batteries for sale.
I fancy a high capacity battery myself.

looks good...i already got an extra one from deal extreme but it's a cheap knock off. would love to hear from someone that bought this one.

i just ordered 2. :/
but it's genuine AND compatible

Hi
I have found this battery on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GOLD-2430MAH-HB4F1-BUSINESS-BATTERY-HUAWEI-E5830-E5832-E5836-E5838-E5-ASCEND-/130576493812?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1e66f72cf4 and from the description "seems" possible a good capacity. For me if the technology is always lipo is impossible a capacity of 2.4A with same battery size and weight, but 1.7~1.8 is credible if really the cell is Japan made.
Bye
Fabryxy
Edit: sorry but from the neutral feedback of the seller seems that many people have denote same\less capacity of stock battery.

From what I've read, the "amazing" gold 1800/2430mAh batteries are extremely crap.

i have ordered a 1800 battery and waiting to arrive in monday so ill test it and post my opinion!

anyone tested? its capacity is real?

What could be a good battery for Defy?

Hi my original battery of Defy is dying. It won't last for half a day. I am planning to get a new one. There are all kinds of batteries on ebay, 1500mah, 1700mah, 1930mah, 2200mah.... I don't want to lose water-resistant so I just want a battery replacement can last long with it. Which is the best choice? I know some of these volumes are fake so the largest number is not always the best choice...

hi, just buy the official battery of your defy

I bought a Polarcell 1600 mAh on ebay. I measured 1570 mAh, which is close enough.
It does have two problems, though. It underreports its capacity (1140 instead of 1600 mAh), and the temperature jumps between 24 and 26 C no matter what the real battery temperature is.

Buy the original battery , If possible purchase the battery a official reseller , On Ebay there are many false

try MUGEN

thanks, will try it

lesson:
1. buy original motorola, try reliable un-official channel if too expensive.
2. buy 3rd party reputable.
3. avoid any has the same size as original but claims significantly higher capacity.
4. avoid batteries that sell for 1/5 the price of an original or 3rd party, you're asking for troubles.
5. when shop on ebay, check seller ratings.
thx.

mpj ideos x5 2500mah extended battery?

The original battery I got from Huaiwei Ideos X5 U8800 earlier this year is short of amazing, it sometime turned off w/o any reason acting as if it doesn't have anymore battery only half hour! I've got some oem batteries, they worked but can not offer me more battery power.
So I am looking for an extended battery that will fit in this phone and is compatible with it but will have longer battery life of a standard sized with brand name. I found one from mpj( sorry that i can't link yet) which likely meet all my requirements. Anybody using this battery? Does these kind of batteries really deliver more battery time than stock?
Thanks

Actually there is no way that either of all standard size extended batteries are the mAh they claim, probably offer ur phone several hundred mah , but still think it is worthwhile compare to those oems:laugh::laugh:

Hi
You can try this on ebay: - MPJ Bateria 2500mAh para AT&T Impulse 4G Huawei M860 Ascend U8800 IDEOS X5
Alternatively Mugen Power has X5 batteries (extended)
These are premium batteries and are expensive

I got a new battery from the local Huawei store and get 1day+ on CM11 rom
don't know how these will perform

A guy on youtube reviewed it, it doesnt fit right. Mind you his title says 4200 mah and the description says 4500 mah. If you look at the one I ordered below it shows that 4200mah would fit like his does.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHQoOLVSyxI
I ordered this one because the description shows the size differences. For my model the 4500mah replaces my stock 3220mah.

Also with these batteries you will most likely lose nfc as they do not mention if they contain the nfc antenna or not.

do you have a samsung oem QI/NFC cover ? seems like if the battery fits then the stock OEM QI cover would give you NFC even with this battery, no ?

Dude just dont buy it, rubish from china. Do you really think they can make a 4500 mah batter with the same size as the original samsung one which is 3220 and sell it for so little money? Chinese batteries are the worst in the world. They even sell their rubish phones with 1 extra battery because they know the first one is gonna die so fast.
Now, from my experience: I once bought a 6800 chinese garbage power bank battery, because it was cheap and I wanted to try it. Guess what, it could only charge my 1650 mah galaxy s2 once before getting depleted. A friend of mine tried a battery similar to the one you linked for his galaxy s4. It was 3500 mah (original is 2600 mah), it achieved a maximum (MAXIMUM) Screen On time of 2 hours. Not to mention that they are dangerous because they might explode (not kidding, I know a case) and that rubbish effective capacity they have is gonna get even worse so quickly.

I've never understand why people risk destroying their expensive new phone by sticking in some cheap ass 'high capacity' battery from China that could well explode while charging, google exploding lithium batteries, it's not pretty. That people think you can fit extra mah into the same size as the OEM battery baffles me, if it was possible to do this do you not think Samsung would have done it themselves.......

Yeah, that's one thing I am concerned about and that's why I asked to see if anyone had used it.

I understand and that's why I posted this question to see whether people have already used it or not.
