[Q] new battery questions - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello guys. i have my nexus for 2 years now and i think it's time to replace the battery as i have no plans to upgrade in the next months.
so a few questions arises:
1. i read somewhere that if the battery is not used once in a while, it's life decreases. in that in mind does anybody knows what is the latest replacment battery production date for our phone?
2. do you know any eshop that sells original battery for our phone not from 2012? ebay sellers are not the most trustworthy bunch from my past experience so if you bought from a seller and is an original battery that wouls be great information.
3. if you have any 3d party batteries that you tested and are good feel free to suggest it.
thank you in advance

What replacement battery would you recommend for HTC Universal

Hi All,
Firstly, this is my first post, so please be gentle with me. (correction, I mean the first thread i have started)
I scoured the forum and have found lots of comments on the ilk of "my battery has failed at x%", but no-one seems to have made any comments on a replacement battery that they recommend or a web link that you could use to purchase one.
So, of you guys and girls that have bought a replacement, can you please give us the benefit of your experience regarding what you feel is great or what to avoid like the plague?
Thanks one and all!
James

Always buying the original battery is my recommendation
There is a member called Duke Nukem, he sells the originals and he´s reliable
Akku Polarcell
Hi,
I bought a new battery and everything works fine. I can use my universal with activated wlan till 0%. Also the charging-time decreased enormous. The battery comes from ebay (Germany).
Label: Akku Polarcell, For Qtek 9000, 3.7V Li-Polymer Battery, 1650mAh
Price: 14,90€
Seller: wannsee-electronic
Bye
I bought my battery from eBay - the cheapest one I could find. It works ok, but not as good as the original. I think others have had bad experiences and it seems really hit and miss on eBay, so I would only go on recommendation from someone else. The original was so expensive, I really couldn't justify spending that much!
I think you mean this is the first thread you have opened I've seen you about. That name of yours kind of sticks in the memory. (Dont explain. we dont want to know)
I got a new battery off a UK seller on Ebay 7-8 weeks ago for £5 plus P&P. He said it was genuine and it looked like the genuine article. It shorted out after 4 weeks but he sent me another. so far so good. What do you get for under a tenner?

Samsung 2000 mah battery

So has anyone in the UK actually managed to buy one?
It seems they are being advertised but no one has any in stock.

I bought one from mobilefun about a month ago. Seems demand is just outstripping supply for now. Keep trying with mobilefun or expansys, and they'll eventually get some in stock. Or go on the thread in the accessories forum and buy it off one of the guys who are shipping it internationally for XDA members (at a premium of course).
Can I ask what sort of difference you get in battery life with the long life battery?

There's currently 1,213 posts in this thread about the battery: Samsung galaxy S 2 2000mah battery by samsung.

[Q] Did anyone try a 3900mah battery on S4?

I want to buy a new battery (the original one got "fat") and I found this one
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3900mAh-U...901?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4d15959b1d
... but I'm not sure if it is a good option... anyone used one? Is it better or should I get a genuine S4 battery?
Thank you!
I got the battery ... if you want to purchase one like this, please don't! It lasts less than the original Samsung battery (2600mah) so you better spend a bit more and get the original replacement, hope this will help you if you want to consider buying a "longer lasting" battery...
Get the zerolemon 3000mah. It lasts slightly longer than stock battery and is not too exp if you stay in the united states and don't need to pay too much for shipping.
I needed to pay for shipping but i still got it anyway.
question
are those bat suitable or not with stock slot? Have any one try those bat?

Battery replacement in EU

Hi everyone, i'm looking for a new battery for my Axon7 because i'm experiencing really heavy battery drain and i was wondering if someone has bought it in an european store because i have 1,5/2 hours SOT average now and i really need it asap so i cannot wait for an international shipping to arrive. I prefer original batteries over compatible, but if you are on compatible and you don't have any issues with it, you're welcome.
Thanks in advance for everyone willing to answer.

Which battery???

I see many batteries at Amazon for our N10:
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_pg_...keywords=nexus+10+battery+replacement&ie=UTF8
Are there any suggestions regarding if any one is better than the other?
The price range is off the chart from $20 to $60...
...any help deciding what to get?
Thanks!

I picked up this one just to see if it worked.

It was the same Samsung part as the original. Had it for a few months now, works well.
Did you get one yet? I got this one off ebay last year, no complaints. I think there are only two options this style with the yellow trim and another that claims to be genuine samsung (but is probably fake) with orange/brown trim.
Installed NewPower99 about two years ago: Still going strong
The original battery started dropping fast below 40% charge one day, so I decided to get a replacement before those would be hard to come by.
I am quite astonished that they are still around in large numbers.

No issue having it shipped to Germany, either, because amazon.de won't carry anything alike.
Which Battery?
I replaced my phone battery and now it's not working well. It has also effected the phone speed. So, try to get only original battery.
I bought this one on amazon for more than 1 and half years. Still works fine. KingSener 9000mAh 3.75V SP3496A8H Battery For Samsung Google Nexus 10
I cannot post the link since I am a rookie here.
