Moto HF5X Battery $10 UPDATE: Not True - Motorola Photon 4G

Check it...... $9.99/ea. for now......
http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/U...ry-Doors/Standard-Battery-for-PHOTON-4G-US-EN
Get 'em while they're hot!
EDIT****
Turns out it's an error on the moto store website.

Electrify....
If you have the Electrify, this is the OEM battery: Battery Notice the 3.8v... Standard for the Electrify... Also $9.99

It's interesting you mention the voltage. My Photon came with the 3.8v out of the box. Shortly after I bought the phone from Sprint, I ordered the spare battery/charger from Motorola online. That too was a 3.8v battery. Now the linked battery above *says* it's 3.7v......we'll see. I'm gonna order it along with a spare back cover today. I'll post again after I receive it.
Either way, I wouldn't think 1/10th of a volt matters.
EDIT******
Turns out the listed "battery" is actually the battery *door* It's just a screwup on their website.

3.8v
The 3.8v stock ones do last longer then the 3.7v. I have two of them, a 1700 &1860, and neither last as long as my stock ones.

Standard Battery Door for MOTOROLA PHOTON™ 4G
I'm confused as to why the description on the checkout reads Standard Battery Door for the Photon.
My mistake. I just read the post above.

These are 3.8v... I bought the the 2 I have from this seller... I always buy different batteries to see which works best. These are the best in the non-extended battery types. I didn't try the extended ones because it would make it larger..

When I charge my phone, and when fully charged, "battery percentage" app shows 4.351v (back of battery shows 3.8v), on my LG Optimus S, its 4.2v - both stock batteries

The Amazon one is not compatible with the Photon, according to reviews.

Let everyone know how they work

If anyones just wanting the OEM battery, call up or get on Motos tech chat and tell them you have a faulty battery or are getting horrible battery life, they mail it out no questions asked. Took me under 5 minutes to do and got mine in mail week or two later.

I'll add that I had placed an order for two of the $10 "batteries" identified by OP, only to realize later that it was a website issue. Called up Motorola to cancel the order and, although it took some time on their end to figure out what was going on, they came back and told me they'd just send me two batteries for free, for my trouble (and that I could also keep the two battery doors if they ever came). Great customer service!

These are not OEM

Remember OEM is 3.8v.. These knock-off's are 3.7v....

I've found the EF6X battery on MOTO's website,rated @1860mv, & states that it is compatible w/the PHOTON & DROID3.
Can anyone verify this?

If it's from Motorola website, then you should have no problems with it.

I bought two of these type of batteries. Unlike the clone ones for my EVO (which were excellent) - these are cheap Chinese turds. Max one hour life.
Mind you, I was in a pinch when traveling and they were helpful.

w0lf215, thank you for the information!
I contacted motorola through chat and was told, "Motorola accessories have a standard one year warranty barring any physical or liquid damage from the date of purchase. We can send you a replacement for the battery for free."
Battery is on the way!

Real OEM batteries. Yes a little expensive at 27.99, but a lot cheaper than straight from moto.

OK, now what battery?

The yoobao never came so other than the sedio 2600 are there any other options out there from a US seller?
Yes I picked up one off amazon. Its from SF Planet. 2300 mah though the link says 2200. Working good so far had it since monday
Best G1 Battery Ever
Check out the battery in my signature. It is hands down the best battery I have every used for the G1 and I have used them all. I have this for about six months and love it. I bought another two just to have since batteries (even the stock batteries that come with phones) don't last me more than a year the way I use them. It's so good I didn't want to chance not being able to get another one. Just in case my signature changes down the line, here is the link: http://tinyurl.com/g1batt. Note: I am in zero way associated with the site. I simply love the battery. Check out that battery door too. Great.
Edit: I have the Yoobao battery. It's great except it's too fat. The one above is fat but it just doesn't feel that way. I can't picture my phone without it. You can easily wake up in the morning with it and not have to charge your phone until you go to sleep (video, of course, changes all that). But I am a heavy user and play with my phone all day with no issues.

Well just today my G1's battery just burnt out (Stock Version). I've been waiting for something like this to happen, and now I need a replacement battery, any local stores like Best Buy or RadioShack that sell replacemnt ones or Generic brands, & since my phone is covered under warranty could I just get a free replacement from T-Mobile.?

it's taken almost 2 weeks, if it doesn't work im gonna crap myself
I just got this one two days ago form amazon and the extra battery life is awesome so far.
"2200mAh Li-Ion Replacement Extended Battery for Google G1, T-Mobile G1, HTC Dream, HTC Dream 100 series"
It adds some size but it's not nearly as bad as I expected.
MY battery also died on me pretty much. How I knew was it was only giving me 10 minutes of talk time then shutting off. But yea my new battery 2300 MaH battery just came in the mail today from Hong Kong bought from ebay and so far so good.. It's really good because they say you get 2-3 days of battery life and for us G1 users, 24 hours of usage is GREAT!. I'll inform you guys how it works
I bought mine from Fry's by some chinese brand lol...
works fine and has yet to fail on me.

Ebay cheap batteries(not what they say they are)

So I bought one of the cheap Ebay 1800mAH batteries. I received it today & I pulled the sticker off the top of it & just like every other knockoff battery I've bought on Ebay it is not 1800mah. Underneath the sticker it says 1000mah.
Do not buy these batteries unless you want a low capacity battery.

[Edit: this user has sold like 350 of these things and gotten no bad reviews on it yet that I can tell.....so either no one's checking battery life before rating or else he's legit?]
So OP, the sticker thing--Mine look a lot like yours but if I try to peel off the sticker, I think I'm getting into the battery itself--metal and stuff seems be be underneath it. But the wrapper on mine looks identical to yours--should I try peeling? I don't want to damage the batteries...
Also, as to performance, what's the best way to test? I guess I can just reboot the phone and wait a set amount of time then measure the battery level (assuming no phone calls, etc)--but even then there are issues of network, etc. Maybe I should just turn off wi-fi, go into airplane mode, then watch 30 minutes of Tron and see where the battery is afterward?
I've got a battery app that shows the % life left and few other things (like how much juice has gone to the screen and specific apps, etc) but I don't think it does what I need it to. I'm willing to pay a few bucks in the market for a great battery monitor.
I have 2 from ebay that look exactly the same and they work perfectly fine, every bit as good as the one that came with it.
I just bought 3 of those with the wall charger the other day. Guess we'll see how they are when they get here.

I got a few of these too and I pealed the sticker and mine say the same thing 1000mah (on the metal looking part). They seem to last pretty long though, maybe 75% of the original. this definitely sucks. Thanks OP for the heads up. I ordered the 2000mah batterys that just popped up on ebay yesterday (from Hong Kong) I will post back when I receive them.
I have contacted both the sellers I ordered from and reported this to ebay, waiting for replys.
Here is what you do!
Here is what you do. If you have a few hours to kill and it is what I did to test my 4G batteries I bought. I would charge the batteries and turn on a navigation app and select a location and let it constantly check and update until the battery dies. With the OG EVO it took like 4 and half hours. and with the siedio 1750 i got an extra 20 mins.
Also the extended batteries would not reach a full charge until SBC kernels showed up, heck the stock batteries didnt get a full charge either so maybe that could be why?
anyways, a lot of people scam others with BS claims on battery ratings on ebay I ordered a 2000 mah battery for my evo and i pulled the sticker and it said 950.
Buyer beware!
Becareful put cheap junk in your superphone.
Why try and run your Porche on cheap of brand 87 octane when it calls for SHELL 93? Yeah it may run but not as well!

Yes it is safe to pull the sticker off. Mine has the metal too as you can see from my pics. I didn't pull from the same part you started to pull from. I started on the back side. The black part. You should see where the sticker ends and you can pull them back from there.
This has been a scam on these types of batteries for a while now. It may seem like you are getting the same battery life, but if you are using battery intensive applications and radios you will see that it is not. With my OG Evo I had 4 cheap Ebay batteries that all claimed to be 3500mah, but none of them even compared to my Sprint branded 2600mah battery. It outlasted those cheapies by almost double. I am sure that maybe there are some legit batteries out there and maybe even on Ebay, but as far as I can tell every single one of these batteries is less capacity then claimed.
I am no expert on testing batteries. All I did was pull the black sticker back to reveal that the battery is 1000mah instead of 1800 mah as claimed.
I bought the battery from here: Ebay
no offense guys, but when you buy a battery that cost 5 dollars, when the oem batteries are 50; do you really expect the same kind of performance?
Now, I agree that the OEM's mark up these things at least 100%, but, you still can't expect top performance when you buy a no name battery as cheaply as they are on Ebay..

right! you get what you paid for, I buy these with the expectation that i'll use them as a backup battery, not as a primary battery that last longer.
in my opinion, even the name brand like Sedio or Mugen "slim extended" battery which cost an arm and a leg are still no better than OEM. even the bulky one don't have as much mah as they claim, although definitely more mah than oem standard

I ordered one from fantasy.bid for my samsung transform. And they sell the 1800 evo 3d batteries as well. But after realizing how hard the back was to get off, I am going to get one of these 4,000 batteries for 75 bucks!

That thing is huge. I would rather carry a second battery and not deal with the heft. Yeah, you have to swap it out but I'd rather do that than carry that thing around. I didn't see the weight but that's a consideration also. To each his own, if that works for you i'm glad you found a solution.

They last about 2 hours of heavy use maximum but for 12$ u get at least 5 hours of battery time ,so its worth it even tho the battery doesn't charge in the phone and it makes your status bar battery icon go gray with a line thru it

Anker's Dishonest and care less Customer service

I have contacted Anker about getting a couple of batteries at a lower price and was told that they will give me a discount, what happened is the rep quoted me a discount price that is higher by $5 than their amazon store and for the battery charger i have asked, they provided me with an old battery charger (71UN42V06-WUCA) that cannot charge the Note battery.
When i emailed them back I got a reply that indeed it can't charge the note 3 battery. Just imagine if i didn't do my research i would have been ripped of by them!
i had an issue with their USB hub. i contacted them and they issued me a quick refund. couldn't have asked for better customer service.
+1 for their Customer Service, it is bar none. They are the only company that offers 18 months warranty on every product their sell. We had a lot of discussions in Note 2 section of the forum about their service, lots of people chimed in to support it. Someone even misused a charger to the point where they thought it affected their phone, Anker guys actually offered to cover a repair bill for the phone (even so it wasn't their fault).
It sucks that you had a bad experience, but I would suggest contacting them again and send a link to this forum post. I'm sure they will make it right by you.
Um Anker has phenomenal customer service...
Sucks you had a bad experience but I have also been in your situation about price matching the batteries and also I ordered the wrong charger cause it wouldn't fully charge my battery (back during s4).
They resolved both issues effectively. They let me return my original purchase and repurchase the combo pack which was the same price as just one battery alone. And they made sure that I got the correct charger.
Anker is the only third party battery manufacturer that I would buy batteries from. I even bought an external Astro 12000maH charger and its excellent.

Well I use Anker batteries from quite a long time and i dont have any issue regarding the product quality, and as per regarding their customer services... I have not heard anything odd from anyone about this...and in most of the cases it is heard to be known very co operative one....So +1 for anker's customer service....
Haven't used Anker since the Captivate days, but I had 2 of their batteries. One started to swell so I contacted them and sent a pic. They replaced it with a new battery in retail packaging quickly. Don't have anything bad to say about them.
I would chalk this up to miscommunication rather than a rip off.
Emailing them for a bundled price and getting quoted a few dollars above the normal retail price and including a battery charger that doesn't charge the battery is definitely not miscommunication, at the best I will call it sloppy. Well it seems like they are efficient in cleaning up their mess when they make a mistake which is a good thing.
I use to own 4 N7000 batteries by anker and all worked well for a year before it bloats up, unfortunately I am unable to ship it back to to them overseas as my country's postal services do not allow it so I can't comment on their after service. However to add on about the batteries that I got from them, they do not seem to have a proper discharge circuit where it shuts down when there is a little battery charge left like the official Samsung battery, causing the screen on the phone to be wavy /flicker.

I use Anker batteries for my dslr and they work as good as the original. Also have batteries for my old gs2 and for both purchases they sent follow up emails to see if everything was working fine. I never had this type of positive customer service before. You should email them back they will most likely sort this out for you.

Anker makes the best external battery pack .
I had bad experience with Anker. I wanted to buy a couple of battery packs as gifts and contacted them to see if they can offer me discounts. I got reply from a rep and she quoted me discount price (which I found it's even higher than their amazon store). And when I received the package, it was disappointing that two of the boxes were broken. I was worried that the battery pack may be broken. I opened one of the box, and what happened is there are scratches and fingerprints around the surface. It's totally an used one. I bought it as a gift!!!!!

If your company(Anker) is so good do you have to resort to creating fake accounts to say your company is the best? Probably not. Such dishonest behaviour only says more Anker and their practices.

Lol might have been a mistake during shipping.they usually do have great customer service. They sent me an extra battery with updated battery cover when my other one had a defect for my s3.

Anyone tried third party replacement batteries for G5?

My battery no longer seems to be charging when in the phone (even though it charges in the external battery charger), so I'm shopping around for a new battery. The official LG battery costs around £25, which seems alot. I was wondering whether anyone had tried any of the lower price 3rd party batteries which are available - e.g. this one:
http://www.dx.com/p/3600mah-li-ion-...gq-6U4hY9gKI9wIgrbQaAgDiEALw_wcB#.WXPZYojyuUk
Can anyone recommend one that has worked well for them?

...I should add that I'm based in the UK, so am looking something that's available to UK buyers...
I use the TQTHL Technology A+ rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Model: Max G5. Its Li-ion 3.85vdc puts out 4kmAh/15.40Wh. They are blue with white cover stickers.. I did a lot of looking into which battery would seem best or if j should just go with a backup factory battery. I had the same issue with my charge port, ( saying it wasnt really ever "fast charging" unless I'd unplug the C-Cord 4 or five times and switch outlets. Their is another decent 3rd party battery, the name slips my mind as I'm sure there's more tban these two 3rd party batteries... However the TQTHL Tech battery was not only less expensive than the battery with the red tape on it... The TOTHL Tech batter is also NFC capable.
::HIGHLY IMPORTANT INFO:: ITS RECOMMENDED TO CHARGE THE TWO TQTHL TECH BATTERIES ALL THE WAY THEN INTERCHANGE FACTORY BATTERY WITH TOTHL TECH AND LET IT RUN COMPLETY OUT UNTIL THE PHONE BOOTS OFF. I READ TO DO THIS A TOTAL OF 5-10 TIMES EACH BATTERY TO GET THE MOST OUT OF THIS INEXPENSIVE AMAZING BATTERY.
I found mine on Amazon/with Prime for 12.80$ (U.S.) or something awesome like that... I got my batteries jn about a day and a half..... The factory replaceable batteries are anywhere from 11.00-29.00$ (U.S.) and that's just for one.
The changing prongs that charges the batter could be a smidge more tighter. --FACTORY BATTERY ALSO WILL charge just fine in the cradle. Does seem the 3rd party batteries have a longer charge span than the factory. Hope this helped if the other two replies weren't satisfactory\helpful

You can get two TQTHL TECH. LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES ON Amazon for about 12-14$ (U.S.). With my Prime membership it may of took three days, however it coulda just been two. That was this past March that I ordered them and they still outlast the LG BL-42D1F.
The battery Model Name is MAXG5 and has 3.85VDC (same as factory model) however, it pushes 4000mAh/15.4oWh
-Typically the LG BL-42D1F only pushes a typical 2800mAh/10.8Wh -- WITH A MINIMUM AMOUNT -- of ONLY 2700mAh/10.4Wh
Hopefully this was helpful. Please click the "helpful link" is it was.

These are the worst fake batteries and you came here to advertise.
@ OP as long as you cant find batteries from reputable manufacturers like anker or zerolemon, buy original ones (only directly from lg as there are fake ones pretending to be genuine).
Hmmmm.....
Has anyone tried the Powerbear battery? It's on Amazon for £9.99. Same capacity as the stock battery (2800mAh) but less than half the price. 2 year warranty as well. Only 3 reviews but 2 of the them were 5-star.

I'm not advertising anything.. Only thing I was doing was giving my opinion on how I unbuasedly felt about the batteriers. I also included what I was told to do to get the best out of the product I bought. And the worst ones out? And fake? Haha mine have been going strong since April... To whom this thread was rwsllu asking thequestion.... You could do what I did or what this other clown had done. I didn't see another battery that was available fort the g5 but the factory one that would last longer push more and most importantly I hadn't seen a single third party battery where the specks both match up and are NFC compatible. I did hear one bad review... This kid said he couldn't get the battery to fit the charger... Which that's funny because it slides open to keep the battery I'm place, bhr first you'd make sure rhw charging prongs would line up.... So how You like thAt for getting on here and voicing my own opinion. Which I'm allowed to have, especially if someone creates a thread asking about about a 3rd party battery... Why would I not suggest the one that has worked. Then again you must be one of those troll people thats got nothing better to do but TRY to make others feel insepie

I seriously don't care what you think is real or fake... But my TQTHL TECH batteries, like I said actually work better than the factory ones charge quick and last mkmger... Shi I'm having a hard time understanding how I've gone and marketed those inarticulate item... You didn't the same thing just left out%%5 ane one here and even said theone bag thingy if heard about them but yet I'm
So I just looked for the TQTHL batteries on Amazon.co.uk and you can't buy them individually - only in packs of two for £28. Since I don't want to spend £28 this doesn't help unfortunately. The Powerbear one looks interesting though - has anyone tried one?
On Amazon Uk, Original replacement batteries are £17 and cheap ones are £10

Had a third party battery Nohon brand but the performance was atrocious. Bought a OEM one and didn't had any problems.
Any updates on a good (available in the UK) battery for the G5?
Thanks

Here's one I can vouch for. On Amazon UK, search for B01N4NTQ98 and only buy from seller "Onogo". Don't risk getting a fake with other sellers. The price is around £7 to £10. Delivery takes about 1 week to arrive from NL. I've ordered twice from them, and the batteries have always been good.
After 1 year of usage, I'd expect the battery to power off at the 10-15% mark. Remember that the original batteries sucked too... Not much you can do about that
Now for my experience. I've had my current battery (replacement #2) for about 9 months. It powers off around the 15-20% mark. Bear in mind that I didn't care about battery health whatsoever. You probably won't be treating it as bad as I did.
Statistics from AccuBattery:
Battery health = 78%
Estimated capacity = 2,191 mAh (out of 2800 mAh)
Based on 804 sessions with 50,020% charged for 1,095,698 mAh total​
Thanks for the tip, I searched on Amazon but no luck with the part number. Searching for the part number returns a genuine LG battery. I found the seller, based in Jersey? They have G5 batteries, but only 2016 genuine LG.
In the meantime, I've bought a (hopefully) genuine LG battery from eBay, seller says it's 100% new & the date in the pic shows 2018. Hopefully it'll last a few months at least.
On the plus side, at least you can change the batteries in these phones!
my g5 is going strong, plan to keep it for 3 more years if not more, where can i stock up more battery????
Not to derail the thread, but how do you guys reset the counters for the battery? (or is that necessary?)
On my Samsung S7, I had to root the phone and manually edit a file so it would charge the new battery to full capacity. (theres also an internal Samsung tool that does this)
Because this has a user replacable battery, I'm not sure ifbthats necessary here.
