anyone knows one that is at least nearly as good as the original?
ebay is filled with fakes trying to look good and just plain fakes.
i bought one which i knew it wasn't genuine but i thought "what the heck, it's probably good for a few hours" and it isn't. i have to underclock the cpu so the phone wouldn't reboot and in lasts 6 hours if i'm lucky.
Just get the original. Its not that expensive. In india it is 1000 bucks. Do the math..
Bought two on DealExtreme... obviously fake and been using one without any issues.. honestly can't tell if it's fake or original judging only by the endurance.
I would like to share my experience of battery purchase. I bought a battery from ebay, this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/19066970991...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_1357wt_1141
I recieved the package in just over a week, but it was a battery for some ZTE device!!! I contacted the seller and they immediately sent me another one. Under one week later I had my new battery(seems like an original battery).
On first charge it seems to hold a lot better then my 15 months old battery I had. Charging now takes 1.5 hours like it used to, the old battery was 0-100% charged in 30-40 minutes, with the original charger.
So for 4.99$ or in my case under 4€ including shipment I can go more then a day of normal use, surfing, mail, calling, reading xda..
Or easily 2 days of light use.
I think it was well spent money, I recommend!
Edit: I guess I should mention that battery tested with ezet CM7.

Also bought one from DealExtreme, it works ( no problem there ) but mine doesn't last as long as the original one ( tested on the official 2.3 ), but great for spare if you don't have a charger around .

Where do you get the original one? In bangalore? any idea
In Bangalore, Huawei has a service center near KR Puram. They actually couriered me one since Im too lazy to move around too much
Any huawei service center should be able to give you one if you turn up. Give them a call first.
Is there anyone here who can help me buy a new battery in India?

Hi
I'm thinking of selling my X7500, I bought one a couple of days ago brand new in box (screen protector still on!). I like it (had an ameo b4) but now think I'm needing something bigger like a shift.
Would sell for £395 + shipping. (UK or EU sale only)
Pls PM me if interested or reply to this thread.
Regards
firedup
OK, I've got in on ebay at the minute but will sell to a reduced price to people on this board of £325 - remember this unit is only a few days old!
Please email me [email protected]
why don't you just return it ?
Bought for cash, no receipt...

The shop will be able to trace it based on the serial number and/or IMEI... but then again, buying it with "a heavy discount" doesn't allow for returns, now does it?

I didnt claim otherwise? It's a model coming to the end of its life, it's in as new condition at a few days old, the price is a good price, it's now sold. If you think you can get a better deal please share otherwise give the Columbo impression a rest.

Ok so I lost my battery cover in a bar =/ , I looked around and found this expansys thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3005813
I wasn't sure about expansys and they charge a fortune for Canada shipping. Anyhow I kept looking and just found that:
http://www.msgdigital.com/productdetail.asp?productid=46908
So it's a bit cheaper, shipping to canada is cheaper (still an expensive lost for a freakin cover! )
I am on the pre-order and I am using my old Htc Excalibur in the mean time.
I will update the thread to let people know about my experience since I know it's a pretty popular item with the fuze owner and some people are sick of expansys!
Pre-ordered. Hope they don't pull an Expansys...
Someone that has good skills in painting might want to take a look at this site and set something for fellow XDA members to maybe save money and not give the money to expansuck.

I was thinking of that kind of painting when I started to get pissed off of the finger dust on my Fuze... thanks for the info... now i know which paint I'm looking at.
As for the expansys (expensive) case, i got my pre-ordered for $15 (shipping to Canada is way too expensive, so I've asked a friend to do me a favor and ship it to me)
The shipping cost from expansys to Canada is exaggerating (we're talking about $30 for the case + $20 for shipping).... It's stupid. I asked my friend to buy me a $2 bubble envelop and ship it with a stamp
I don't know why people on XDA promote expansys so much, their products are expensive... the service is so so and international shipping is just stupid.
Got an email from msdigital today apologizing for the delay and confirmed a 1/20 ship date. Get bent, Expansys.
Hey what about me!
Lol, still good news
Did you end up getting these? Still says no date on website

This cover is for the Extended 1800mah OEM battery.
I got this one as well, the device is pretty thick and massive. Battery last a good two days with this one compared to a little over a day with the regular one.

See this thread, I presonally got it of eBay with the battery, because alone its useless, the regular battery wont touch the cover and it might move/disconnect

I'll update: I ordered one from msgdigital.com and it arrived quickly. It is great! I love it better than the glossy, especially since I had accidentally scratched the back of my original Fuze battery cover...
I had no problems from MSGDigital.com. Just wanted to post that in light of the problems people had with expansys...
ok so I see you guys are looking for cases and what not, if your just looking to get a better color for your battery cover (black would be my choice) you guys could dye it yourselves without having to spend much money at all, everything you need should be under $2 and it will only take about 20 minutes to do.
All you have to do is go to your local Wal-Mart and buy some RIT dye, the powder kind, then get a pot with water and heat it up enough that it would burn if you stuck your finger in there but not so much that its boiling, then mix the dye in there and sumberge your battery cover completely in there, you don't have to worry about covering or removing the camera lense cover or anything, the dye shouldn't stick to that part of the battery cover and it shouldn't stick to the inside of your battery cover because of the type of material. You should stir the pot with your battery cover in it for 15 minutes then take it out and rinse it under water until all the extra dye has come off. You now should have a black battery cover that looks like it came that color stock. There are some pictures and success stories and basically a run down of what I just said in a thread over at PPC Geeks which is where I usually linger around.
Heres the link, pics and all should be on the first post.

Warning: Take this with a grain of salt. I got this info from a sales rep at a corporate t-mobile store.
So I went to a t-mobile store over the weekend, I had a issue with my back cover, and asked about any new batteries. The guy gave me a new back cover and a 2nd battery to hold me over until the new ones came out. He told me starting next week, the new G1s will be shipping with a better extended battery, and should be starting a replacement program for current g1 owners. I just hope its true.
lol i just bought an extended 2200mAh battery ><
ah well, only cost me £15. sure hope i get another one though

I am sure you can still find his email if you used paypal and pass it over to him. just an idea.
his e-mail (or the company's email) is [email protected] good old paypal
also, the battery as £10 with £5 delivery.
delivery time was a bit ****.
I doubt this.
I know that randomly you can get some quick help from T-mo stores when it comes to extra phone parts laying around, but I was having issues with my phone back (grey one) fading to some brownish color.
I called to see if they would cover it under warranty and I was told that they do not stock any battery covers for warranty replacements.
IF they were to warranty a phone, they would have you send them the phone and that I would keep the battery and battery cover.
Since this would not fix my problem, they said they would have to replace the whole phone.
(Since my phone is rooted), I did not want to do this so I told them it was poor service to make me send in my whole phone for a battery back cover which I could get from HTC (which was in stock) for 15.00 + S&H.
So the Rep at the PDA support spoke with his supervisor and credited my account with the cost of replacing the battery back.
Long story short, if they can't even replace the battery or phone w/o sending the WHOLE phone back, then why would they even have extra of either laying around.
P.S. I went with the black back, no point in it fading again. It also looks kinda like a Storm Trooper now.
I walked in and showed them the back of my phone, and they grabbed a replacement back cover for me. But I did got to a corporate store.
the battery replacment program may not be too far off. when i had my wing a new battery got sent to me by T-Mo...........saying that some had experienced overheating problem and such.
the pacakge arrived out of no where.........all i had to do to not be charged was send back the old battery.
so it may come to fruition for our G1's

yeah, but they replaced the battery because it was like catching fire, not because the life sucks

well my battery is like heating oven... especially when connected and im using it.. omg! i can get burned with that thing.
I've been lurking around some forums here and on the OP site and well.. Everyone is saying the replacement batteries are all crap. Either being rated at 2650mah or not working at all. Yet I've also read that people have had success with their new batteries from these "trusted sources".
Anyone got an idea where I can pickup a new battery? Or am I stuck with shipping my phone from Canada to China to get the battery replaced.
Edit: Just contacted Oneplus and they quoted the replacement batter at around $23 CAD, which isn't bad considering a replacement non-oem is $30 including shipping (well depends where you get it I suppose)
Apparently they also use original batteries, as per say from Kris.
Kris said:
Anyhow, for your second question, the battery we'll be using during replacement will be an authentic battery that is the same with the one that comes in the phone when you purchase it.

i settled for the same solution. burned my fingers twice on some crappy "originals" from ebay. 33 EUR all-in for a replacement here in the netherlands done by OP. i should have never tried other methods.

Just a tip, never assume things are original on ebay. I have the feeling that my battery is also weak (like a 2700mAh battery). I can do replacements myself, but don't know where to get those batteries from a legit store.
amen. bought 2 different batteries - both are crap, around 2700mAh MAX.
Yes, I know.. another battery thread. This is, however, for european users.
Does anyone knows where to buy decent replacement FX30 battery in europe (or china). Tried those fake ones off ebay but capacity below 2k mAh and they die after 2 months of use - waste of time and money. No one from US will ship batteries to europe due to federal law regulations.
Motorola/Lenovo are not helping either. Was willing to pay them to replace the battery in authorised service but no one in Lenovo/Moto knew the cost. They asked to send device in for a week for their, so called, 'engineers' to investigate and then they would give the quote. Really? ..just to find out that the price is.. say £100 or more. No, thank you.
Well, I'm still on the hunt for half decent replacement that won't crap on me within 2 months. (Or even burn my house in the process). Anyone had good experience with non-original FX30 batteries long term? Original battery would be preferred option though.
Thanks
I got luckly and was able to buy this on eBay. Maybe they can ship this to you.
