Im sorry if this had been posted before i didnt really find it. could have been asking the wrong questions and in advance thank you for pointing me in any direction or any help. okay to the issue, i bought some cheap china batts on ebay just to keep charged in my pocket for boarding (music, video, pandora rip throuh batts) or just for whenever. i norm just use the oem samsung battery but when switching it the other day i must had missed my pocket and dropped my oem off the lift or something. when i use these other non oem batts the phone says cannot connect to battery. i cant not charge it (not a problem because have like a just batt charger so i swap back and forth) or my comp wont see it cuz of the usb wont connect. how do i fix this besides buying a new oem batt? (hurttin on cash between xmas and moving into my first place) for 30 bucks i can just deal for now. and fixes at all?

From what I've heard, the phone will not recognize a non-OEM battery so you will just have to continue using the separate battery charger for now. Just keep them all charged I guess until you can save up for an OEM battery.

I can confirm your issue. I purchased 4 batteries with 2 wall chargers in October for $20 shipped and my facinate will not reconize them. Besides having to charge them in the wall charger they work great. Hate to say this but you will need to buy either a wall charger to charge them or an OEM battery...
