[Q] Battery for MediaPad - Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard

Dear friends!
Who can tell where can I buy a battery HB3G1H for our device.
The only store where you do have
item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=16477956928&
But unfortunately it is only available in China.
As far as I know is not very difficult to replace the battery. Namely, you have to remove the two plugs, unscrew the six screws and remove the back cover.
But unfortunately find a battery is not easy. For example, on ebay this item is missing.

Sorry for the off topic, but can you post a guide on how to disassemble the device?

seeing your post made me wonder where I will get a replacement in the event that my mediapad's battery die as well. All search pointed to that taobao site as well but I saw on another search result:
h**p://w*w dotblog4battery dot com/blog/744158-barnes-noble-nook-tablet-battery-nookcolor-dr-nk02/
It is B&N Nook tablet's battery and they somehow of the same specs. not sure of the dimension and the connector but other than that I think if you can't find an exact replacement, this could come in handy as long as it fits. replacing the connector is really easy.

Unfortunately, at this time the exact instructions for disassembling our Tablet is missing. There are some photos on disassembly
ttp://w...w.wirelessgoodness.com/2011/12/13/huaweis-mediapad-gets-an-fcc-teardown-appears-headed-to-att/
On Russian forum 4pda.ru there is a some short howto that I described. Namely, you have to remove the two plugs. The first plug closes the memory card and SIM card. The second plug is where the camera. Under each plug are three screws. You have to unscrew them. Next, carefully remove the back cover, press the six latches with a thin and stiff plastic card. Under the back cover is the battery.

Anyone find any where to sell battery HB3G1H , please let's me know, thank you

I didn't buy the battery but I did buy other stuff from the site. I get the item from around 2 weeks to a month. When buying from China, the longest I have to wait for the item to arrive is around 1.5 month. But for my understanding, the delay is mostly from my country custom part.

And you should learn how to read. Try read his post again and again and then again.

It seems that Mediapad battery is not available at buychina anymore?
Is there anyone who bought in any other on line store ?
I checked also the other web sellers listed above, but Mediapad batteries are not available.
Thanks !!

Anyone bought from either of these 2 sellers? My MediaPad battery is as good as gone. It can go from 50% to 1% in a few mins, so I need to buy a replacement fast. The first one looks like OEM battery, and 2nd one Huawei original.

Received new battery today!

So I bought one battery from the latter link and received it today. I had to do a customs declaration, since the customs didn't beleive, that the battery was that cheap. Moreso that I received TWO instead of the ordered ONE battery !
The batteries look new and unused to me, although on comparison with the built in battery, which has a manufacturing date 2011-09, the sent batteries were manufactured 2011-05 and have a lower serial number as well. So contrary to the battery shown in the product picture, which has a manufacturing date 2011-11, the ones I received are half a year older.
I do hope, that the natural decay of LIPO batteries does not occure within short months time.
Right now I am charging the first new battery. I'll see, how it works soon and keep you posted.

@Hugo
I would be curious about the results :fingers-crossed:
Thanks!

Solid Red light = no power

The other night, I put my phone on to charge (OEM charger). When I woke up, the charge light was solid even after I unplugged it from the charger. The phone was off (on when put on to charge) and will not turn on now. I have removed the battery for a while and reinstalled. I have removed the sim also and tried that way. I have read in -other- forums that this either means: 1. Phone is toast. Trash it. 2. Battery cover is damaged.
I bought it on ebay and it worked GREAT for 4 months. I flashed it with 6.1 standard just after I got it. I don't belive that the ROM is bad. As for the cover...Mine fits tight. When I flip it over, I see -1- metal piece on it. As I understand from discriptions, it is supposed to have -2-. I cannot find a picture online verifying this. I don't want to pay $15-$20 for a battery cover when I really need to buy a new phone.
So...anyone know how I can fix it? Any (reasonable) suggestions?
Thanks!
Update
I went to a few cell repair shops. Unfortunately, they told me that the motherboard has a short in it and it will need a new one. They also told me that it isn't worth replacing the motherboard ($150 was the quote I got). It would be best if I bought a new one.
Anyone know where I can get a NEW one? Ebay only has used.
Thanks!

Battery Replacement - is it possible? Where to buy?

Hi guys,
my Nexus 9 started to randomly shutdown around 40-50% with some strange noises and screen artefacts. I know some people faced that as well. I've tried to go trough that google support bull*hit and finally when we agreed it's battery issue, they stopped answering - seriously.
So I've removed the back cover - it's pretty easy. The battery is 2 pieces, one is ok, the second is probably dead - very bloated. So I need a new battery and it will probably be ok. BUT the battery is impossible to buy
I've contacted our local HTC partner repair centre, but they told me, they no longer do repairs, they just send it to HTC, so they cannot say how much will the battery replacement cost :silly:
So finally the question - is there any way how to get a new battery for the Nexus 9? Swap is super easy and paying half a price of the tablet for battery replacement, which I can do in 3 minutes is just lame.
Anyone saw Nexus 9 battery as spare part? Anywhere? I've found a guy in Poland, but he's not replying to my emails.
Thanks!

Don't waste your time putting a new battery in it. It's a hardware issue. My first N9 thr exact same issue after 4 months of use and ultimately had to be replaced. There's another forum here on XDA pertaining to the exact same issue. Under 50% screen locks up with a scrambled image and loud noise from the speakers. It's a bad motherboard and the only fix is a new motherboard or new Nexus 9. Trust me on this. You can replace the battery, but it won't help this issue. Sorry

Furthermore, both Google and HTC know of this issue. I swear they instruct their tech people to play dumb.
Sadly that make sense. After I've send a few photos, when I was quick enough to take a photo of the display before shutdown, google support went silent!
These are not a good news, but I thank you for reply and sharing some light on it. I will consider buying a new tablet then.

Makes sense. My N9 has had minimal use (displaced by Pixel-C). Brought it out of hibernation a while back, and it kees crashing (even when on charge!)
I've had this problem with crashing and loud noises several times. Previously I had a charging issue, under warranty the mainboard was replaced. A long while after that the problems with scrambled screen and loud noises started. I then disconnected the battery, and reconnected it, and the problem went away for a long time. But it has returned and even returning more often.
So I ordered a replacement battery via ebay (straight from China), and yesterday I finally found some time to replace it. First thing I noticed the tablet is more responsive, snappier.. It hasn't discharged enough to reproduce the problem, but I had trouble lately with updating apps when it wasn't on the powersupply, which convinced me it was a faulty battery. Now it's updating without charger no problem at all.
2,5 weeks after replacing the battery, and the problem did not come back. I'm happy with it.. pretty easy fix..
So the same problem has been happening to me also, got the N9 up to 7.1.1 and this started to happen a lot more. Seems to be when the battery is low (under 50% or 40%, somewhere around there) and usually when I'm looking at the Chive app, mostly again with animated GIF's they have. I'm not sure it's happened with games since I mostly game on my N6 since it has more RAM so it plays a bit better where the 2GB on the N9 is too laggy.
Any way, so this happens now too. So some say bad motherboard, others say bad battery. Has anyone gone through the trouble of the motherboard replacement? Or have actually had HTC replace the motherboard on warranty? If yes, has it made the problem go away? Has anyone else bought a battery off eBay (I can't find them new OEM anywhere and I hate the idea of a Chinese knockoff so close to my hands and face - ya know, fire) and had the problem go away?
I've replace all manners of parts from various phones so I know I can do it to the N9, which is just a large ass phone. I have to give up my N9 for some Samsung tablet (sorry 7" tablets are too small). I love having a 8"-10", pure vanilla Android tablet. I wish Google would make another one that was like the N9.

I couldn't figure out how to unplug the cables.
You need to pull it vertically from the board. I used a guitar pick to make it a bit looser, then I pulled it of.

Is it still working?
I am pretty sure is the battery connector. I unplugged and replugged the connector and the problem was gone for a few days. I could finally solve it applying a contact cleansing spray to the connector and then using a special kind of glue which is typically used to prevent screws for unfasten. It has worked perfectly since then, no need to replace the battery.

Just wanted to be sure this was the root cause.
Already exchanged my battery in the meantime.
Thanks anyway!
I installed a replacement battery six months ago due to shortening run times on the original battery. I purchased it from newpower99.com for $60. They have an instructional video on their site that shows how to replace the Nexus 9's battery. It worked well for me, giving me a run time that was comparable to the run time when the Nexus 9 was new.

Need a new battery for my N6...

Trying to eek by til December with my Nexus 6 as my ex-wife's kids are still on my AT&T plan and that is when there AT&T Next expires. I could get a new phone now with AT&T but I want a Pixel on Verizon.
My phone only lasts about 4~5 hours now and shuts off saying the battery is dead when it still has about 20% left. Guess it really doesn't!
Anyway I need a battery and I would prefer a factory Motorola battery but I'm not sure where the best place to get one is OR is I should be looking at something else.
Can someone give me some direction here? Thanks!
This belongs in the q&a section but eBay and amazon surely has them
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Well obviously they have them along with TONS of fakes. I'm asking for a reputable place to buy one from that isn't going to burn my house down and kill my kids!
Nexus 6 Replacement Battery
Today, I’ve contacted Google Project fi before I order a replacement phone. My 18-months old N6 now only works with AC adapter plugged in after gotten worse for the last 5 weeks. Uggh! The Google CSA and I agreed that battery in my N6 is "dead". During the last minute, fervent research to 1) repair thru Motorola ($175 and up), or 2) myself, an electronic tech-retired ($30 or less), I found the following link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/help/solution-phone-shutting-battery-empty-t3041226
After following that simple procedure, my phone NOW works without charger connected. (Hope this is the "fix" I was searching for the last several weeks.) Please give it a chance.
Few things I've considered inclining to $175 battery replacement by Motorola was N6 the BIGGEST screen and its initial cost of $600. BTW, least expensive Proj fi compatible phone is N5X at $249. Of many concerns: 1) Recent Samsung battery explosions; battery is very fragile item, same as my limb! 2) No OEM (Motorola) battery available at reasonable cost by third party; or trust eBay batteries? 3) Reliability of my phone, etc. These are my reasons toward repair by Motorola.

OK well that is interesting. I still bought a new battery but it didn't fix the "phone randomly shutting down" issue and reporting it was dead.
I did this and my phone instantly jumped from like 96% to 84% upon reboot. Curious to see if it fixes the random reboots now.
hi,
any new for 2018 recommended trusted placed to order real OEM EZ30 ?
tnx

I got that one a month ago. Came about half charged. Seems to be OEM. Still getting battery temp readings.
Good capacity measurements from accubattery. Phone easily lasts twice as long as before and no longer shuts off at 15-20% or when taking pictures / using the flash.
Seller forgot to include tools, but a steak knife worked real well to pry the back enough to stick some credit cards in.
@ziddey I have received the same battery, but I have not replaced yet.
The electric connector points to the opposite direction.
Can you confirm that if I bent it it will fit?

Try to "hard calibrate" it by booting into "bootloader" mode using rooted "Rebooter" apk from Playstore and scrolling to "Bootloader Logs" page using Vol- button. Then hold "Power Button" for 15sec until phone turns off and then back on (Google splash screen) and then release button.

Neither. I would buy through Amazon if you're in USA as easy return can't be beat. AliExpress is Chinese seller who frequently sells fake or exaggerated battery capacity.

Then take a chance and try one as who knows what's real and what's exaggerated. No idea which is good from China. Maybe EBay from England or EU?
I recently bought a battery from this UK ebay store https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-...948627&hash=item4aff403767:g:TyUAAOSwr7ZW6plm
It says they are refurbished but I took a chance. I've been running the new battery for a couple of weeks now and it's been close to perfect.
Ordered the one nemanja066 linked. Should arrive within the next week. If the battery fixes my issues, I may have a Pixel 2 xl collecting dust!

Battery Replacement on HP Touchpad

HI All,
I wasn't even sure I was going to post this or not but I thought it might help someone out. This is not meant to be a "how to" post and you should proceed at your own risk.
A friend of mine had a 16gb Touchpad that he hadn't used in several years. It was just sitting in a box for several years. When I told him I was still using mine to watch videos and such he decided to dig his out. Unfortunately it wasn't in very good shape. The battery had swollen and had practically pop the screen out of the case. I'm fairly handy at fixing things so I told him I would give it a shot to replace the battery.
I wasn't very hard to open the case because the swollen battery had pushed the screen up and gave me easy access to the clips that hold the screen in. By gently prying up under the screen to released the remaining clips the screen came away from the other half. There are 2 cables attaching the screen to the MB so be careful. I wish I would have taken more pics but I didn't think about posting a how to. There are a couple of good how to's online and batteries are available online for around $30.
https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/HP+TouchPad+Battery+Replacement/6082
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD2zGOsh6I8
Once I separated the screen from the body I had to pry the battery out. It is stuck down with some pretty sticky tape on the underside of the battery. You have to pry up pretty hard but you also have to be gentle as not to damage the copper foil that is under the battery. Once the battery is free you can give it a little pull to disconnect the cable from the motherboard. The online how to has you disconnecting all the little cables from the MB and actually removing the whole MB from the case. This is not necessary. The only thing that needs to be removed is the usb module and one or two screws from the MB near the battery connector. With a little patients, good light you should be able to mate the new battery plug to the connector. Just make sure you line the two connectors up and use a small tool to push the plug all the way onto the connector. Now once the battery is installed just replaced the parts in reverse order and you should be good to go.
Hope this helps someone,
Cheers
Thanks! My battery is equally swollen but working just fine, so I'm not sure if I need to do this before it fails. I hope it doesn't explode further or cause a fire!
It's curious, I was going to open a new thread right about that and I've found yours!
I extracted the old swallen battery from my touchpad many months ago but I still have to buy a new battery.
I believe that the batteries sold online were producted many years ago and, considering the value of the touchpad on the used market, 30 dollars are not little in my opinion.
Does anybody by chance know of any cheaper alternative battery that could be adapted to the touchpad?

They are lithium. If the pack is swollen it has gone bad.
Replace as soon as possible. The risks with lithium are too high.
Hi all,
It's over 4 years since the last posting in this thread, but thought I'd check in anyway.
The battery in my Touchpad does not appear to be swollen (no obvious bulging in the case. However, it seems the battery is not retaining a charge as long as it used to so I'm wondering if anyone has a legit source for a replacement. My backup plan is to take the TP apart and see if I can provide an access point for an external source (battery or P/S) and would be interested f anyone has done this, as well.
The TP is certainly not as fast or have as much memory capacity as current tablets, but its display is beautiful and the price was certainly right (firesale
Thanks in advance for any help.....cheers (and happy upcoming holidays!

Hi all,
It's over 4 years since the last posting in this thread, but thought I'd check in anyway.

You can look for all about the battery on this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/hp-touchpad-poweroff-prevents-battery-drain.4002265/
If the Tablet boots, then just keep it charging.
This thread provides some information on how to wake up the battery:

Appreciate the links. They were helpful. However, it did not answer my specific question: Replacement battery and a reliable source for it. I will try some of the suggestions to see if I can "rebuild" the battery charging capacity, but at 11 years old, there will be limits to doing this.
Cheers and happy holidays back to you....

Battery Bulge Issue

Hi Guys!
It's quite unfortunate that my Mate 10 suddenly had its battery bulge out of nowhere. It was there sitting in my bag, not connected to a charger, and when I took it out, the back cover was already starting to come apart. It has gotten worse and I have stopped using it.
My phone is about 1 year and 4 months old; anybody had a similar issue?
I'll bring mine to the service center over the weekend.
TIA
UPDATE:
Huawei Philippines actually had a program wherein they offer battery replacements for certain models and fortunately, the Mate 10 was one of them.
I got mine serviced for roughly $20 and I got a new battery (including labor). Funny thing was, the first battery they replaced mine with didn't work (had a full chargebut phone kept turning off). 2nd one was the charm. I'm on my 2nd week and it's still going great *knock on wood
It seems Huawei is aware of the battery issue and so they offered replacements for cheap (without the program, new original batteries costs like $30.
Me too 2 weeks ago when i removed the silicon case i found out that my batteri was expanding. Thanks god for 2 year warranty.
Sent the phone to Huawei service partner in Sweden called Mobylife. They fixed it on warranty in no time. Really good service. According to service report they changed batteri, display and made updates to firmwire. When i got it in return i found out they replaced the backside aswell. Almost a new phone, but i kept my imei.

It's great that you guys have a 2 year warranty, but at $20 for battery and labor, I couldn't complain much.
Maybe Huawei is aware that they have battery issues which was the reason they had this program available here in the Philippines.
Wow, they replaced your screen as well? Initially, I had a screen discoloration issue, kind of like something is pressing on the back side (back then, the battery bulge issue wasn't that obvious, so I didn't know.) When I had my batteries changed, the screen issue was gone as well (apparrently, the battery was pushing back on the screen).
By the way, which firmware are you on now that they have updated it?
Huawei Mate 10 battery bulge
I observed the back of the mate 10 popped off at the bottom. I ordered a battery from Amazon and replaced the battery myself. Examining the old battery I found that the battery itself was not deformed, but the plastic wrap was inflated. The battery was still working well.

Were you able to take photos? Mine did the exact same thing
Same thing happened to me yesterday. Out of nowhere the backcover came off at the side of the SIM tray. It's about 20 months old. Sending it in on warranty very soon.
Bad thing to happen but what could be the cause of it?
Does it have anything to do with Supercharge?
My phone is still in good condition and under warranty but if this is problem can be avoided it's better. Any suggestions for the reason behind battery expansion?

Every battery will expand sooner or later, therefore they have expiration date and number of cycles. After they reach that, they reach predicted end of lifetime and we have to exchange them. Of course, we can still use them but sometimes on our risk.
Hi everyone
I’m new in this page but I offen search here if I interested any phone but now I have a problem and it’s looks like nobody from huawei wanna answer my question so if anybody up for a challenge and maybe can help me to find out what’s wrong with my phone it would be great
First challenge how can I upload pictures of my phone here?
Thanks
Same happened to mine. A few months ago it started with bright spots on my display and a few days my backcover came off. I already ordered a Mate 20 X on ebay, but I guess the next few days I will have to use my old Mate 10 and hope it does not blow up. Has anybody got a Mate 10 battery burning so far?
And no this is not normal battery wear. The capacity is still fine. It just seems to be poor quality.

I think this is the problem with my P20.
My phone has the bulge too. It's pushing the back cover open a little. AccuBattery still reads 94% capacity. I'm worried it could burst so I'm going to attempt to replace it.
I hope im not reviving an old post.
My mate 10 also had the same issue, the battery itself wasn't expanded, but the casing around it was ( I assume it was a build up in gas)
I am replacing my phone in a week so what I've done so far is make a tiny hole in the casing to let out the built up gas and now its back to normal.
this is just a temporary fix but should get me through the week, not sure if it was a wise thing to tinker like that with it.
