3030mah Battery for XT890

[goldenelephant]

Dear all,

it is easy to find proposal for 3030mah batteries on web.

I check in the forum but I do not find review/comment about the satisfaction to integrate such batteries.

I wonder if one of you guys did try to integrate such battery?

Is it really bringing obvious advantage and is it easy to put in place?

Take care all,

Laurent

My battery is starting to get fat, but I'm too scared to disassemble the phone.

Has anyone had success replacing their batteries?

No problem to disassemble it. First screws around screen, after that screws and tapes on motherboard and just tear out battery. If You can do it carefully You can even put back old battery.

Yes, very easy to disassemble. To make you comfortable with it, you go go on youtube. There are different video very clear about the procedure.

Seems the 3030mah battery does not wake up lots of interest.... I keep curious about it.

yeah. I guess there is no miracle and if people would be able to put 3030mah in a battery sizing 2000mah, we would probably already know.

Anyway, I did like you say. I rooted and put Omar Rom(July 16). So far, I am very suprised by the stability and the efficiency of this rom.
I saw two small defects that I can not report as no access yet to the developer chat room.

Then today, thanks to your update I discover greenify. Looks perfect and no ads in.

Thanks !

I had one of those for my XT925. Removed the Golden patch: big surprise: The Cell is labeled 1900mAh.

I put a new genuine Motorola battery in my phone last week. It is really easy to do.

6 screws around edge of phone. Pry off the plastic piece at mouthpiece, 3 screws under it, pry off Motorola badge at earpiece, 2 under it. Gently separate phone and disconnect ribbon cable. Then 7 screws around mother board, pry off battery connector bottom left and camera module at top. carefully lift board adn undo clip at earpiece and remove that section. Board should now lift off. Battery is stuck to back of phone with double sided tape that covers top half of battery. I used a lollipop stick to pry battery away. You can use a hairdryer to heat tape up to make it easier. Job done

Where do you buy your battery? Has the battery good health and capacity? I have to buy new battery too, but I don´t know where. A lot of sellers are on Ebay, but everything are unofficial batteries.
