Spare Battery

---

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/190669709918...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 .

I bought two of those dx-ones and both had the same s/n
Works maybe a half a day per battery.

can you guide me to a link where they sell original ones in India? have you tried one.

Anyone tried something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2050mAh-HB4F...item416369f9a0
Interested in buying.. I dont care if it's a fake brand.. I only care if the mAh is true or not :/

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 :P
Any huawei service center should be able to give you one if you turn up. Give them a call first.
