Hello...
couple a days ago i bought Moto Defy 3500mAh Extended Battery from amazon. and as the guild said '' Charge the battery for more than 12h to get the extended life for 5-6 cycle ...
and its done ..today after charging at 100% i checked battery calibration and its showed 100% 4183 mV
same day after heavy usage battery went to 1% and i kept using my phone until maybe its shut down 1h passed but nothing happened :confused: went again to battery calibration and its 3873 mV :eek: and its at 1% ?!! while writing this i checked again and this time its shows 3915 mV:confused: and its keeping going up bit by bit as i left my phone idle ?! any idea how to make it reading the battery status right ?! or maybe the motorola defy is sat to read 1500mAh battery only ?!

a lot of the batteries are generic on amazon. zcell by laza are actually really good batteries. they are on amazon. i dont know if they make them for the moto defy but the zcells are the only ones ive noticed to be accurate capacity. I dont think these phones are programmed to know if a larger capacity battery is in it. Im not 100% sure though.
