Has anyone tried other phones battery on the photon?
I checked the accessories from the Motorola site, and they have a battery charger for our phones battery and it is also compatible with bw hw bf hf and bh series battery. ours is HF6X right? so if our batteries work with that charger i'm pretty sure the other batteries would work with our phone.
Heres the link http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/U...attery-Doors/Battery-Dock-for-HW-and-BW-US-EN
I dont have another battery from other motorola phones to try it. If someone else does would you try it in our phones? thanks!
I havent tried any different batterys, but ive tried a bunch of chargers and they seem to all work well. used a verison car charger from my friends BB. used an HTC charger. and used an off the wall china mass made discount special car charger.
all of those charged well and i didnt experiance any heat issues.
Just get the OEM HF5X Battery from Ebay for $16:

yeah pretty much chargers are becoming universal as the standard for phones are now micro usb i believe. with the exception of Apple. Reason why I ask the original question was cause I dont really like china branded battery that much, not that i hate it as i've had a few in the past but if i can get OEM batteries cheaper than 20 bucks, i would go that route instead.

well thats not OEM.. just compare the mAh to ours. ours is 1650 and that is 1500.
Don't think that is OEM, its 1500 maH and made by CS Technology.
I went this route (had these for my Epic, good results) just received them today, they fit and work.

Check above. The battery I supplied is OEM for $16 from Ebay. I got it for $25 2 weeks ago. Oh Well. The OEM# for the Photon is HF5X. I called Moto and this is what they told me, PLUS it's on your battery. Just pull it out and look at it.

These are the OEM batteries from the motorola store http://www.store.motorola.com/Batte...olor_map,price,size_name&searchRank=salesrank
the battery you bought is probably compatible with our phones but its not the OEM ones that motorola sells

Well, when I got mine it stated a rating of 1650MAh. I am looking at it right now. Maybe the 1500MAh batteries are knockoffs, but the one I got is a Motorola OEM (that's why I paid $25 instead of $16). Oh Well. I have used it and it works just like the one in my phone.

well if you say so, i'm not gonna doubt you. but the battery you received for 25$. does it look identical to the battery that came with your phone? because on that ebay listing, my battery looks nothing like that.
I know the original Droid X battery is not compatible ... tried it already.
Sent from my Motorola Photon 4g
Pretty sure the Photon battery is unique, maybe not when the Bionic comes out but as it stands now. If you see a battery that claims it is for Atrix/X2/D3/Photon (or any combination), it will not fit the Photon, they are just guessing that its the same, which is not.

From what I can tell with the battery plugged in it slow charges at 300-350ma where as with usb cables it charges at 800ma. I would not expect it to charge a battery in less than 12 hours if it was near dead. But sure it will work with either the international or at&t version. Remember though, you get what you pay for.
Edit: I have bought various items from China, different vendors. A usb hub I bought bit the dust after a few months use.. It was about $4 too. Just don't expect to use it on a daily basis and have it last very long.
good point, i'll stick to oem i guess
it's not like it's a **** load more money...
what do you think of this?

I am pretty sure that is only the charger though so beware. I bought one and it clearly stated extra battery included was oem as well

Pay little more than the cheap wall charger and get this one. It not too expensive, its Samsung OEM shipped from S. Korea. The only thing is that it does not come with AC adapter but you can use the one that came with the phone.

That looks like the charger that comes with the Hyperion battery you can get from Amazon. It does charge slow--I think it takes about 6-7 hours to charge from empty. I didn't mind, though, as it would charge while I was doing other stuff and when the light changed from red to green, I'd just slap another dead battery on there for charging.
I am going to be traveling in the next couple of weeks and there will be several days that I am nowhere near a charger for 12+ hours. My Note has been really good with the battery with moderate use but the area I am going to has LTE so I plan to play around a bit. I figured it would be best to purchase a spare battery now and then take that with me so I am not running into any problems. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good spare battery? I know there are plenty of off-brand batteries on Amazon and eBay. Would it be better to get a Samsung official battery or has anyone had good success with any of those off-brands?
Thanks!
I bought Samsung "Spare Battery Charging System". Included battery, carry/charge case, micro-USB cable and Charger. Case doubles as stand for portrait /landscape viewing. Phone does not charge via stand, only spare battery charges.
$49.00 at AT&T. Good value, IMO.
I have been very happy with the Hyperion 2600mah 2pk with charger on Amazon for under $28. I believe they sell the batt separately also. Battery life is comparable to the oem batt and as an added bonus....it recharges faster for some unknown reason. Highly recommended...really.

Do you have a link to that product? I am searching Amazon and AT&T's websites and I do not find anything close to that. Only the dock or the charger with no batteries. Thanks!
I have using Anker batteries in all my android phones, and LOVE them. Fantastic customer service! You have a problem? They will take care of you with in a day!
The Anker batteries on my previous Samsung Infuse worked fine for myself for traveling .
I am using the Hyperion battery as well. Get which ever battery beforehand so you have time to go through a few recharge cycles to get the battery at its peak performance.
I ended up ordering the Hyperion 2 x 2600mAh batteries with charger. Along with the OEM battery I should have no problems lasting an entire day away from a charger.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006J90GBY/
Thanks all!
Doh . . . I was just going to say you can order OEM batteries from Amazon through a seller for $30 and it comes with a charger.
IT doesn't mention that it comes with the battery but it does.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0076Z3FSQ/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details
Just be careful buying "OEM" through other then official channels. There has been atleast one person here that bought "OEM" battery that gave him a whopping 6 hours of run time.

That's still good to know because Amazon is great about returns. I returned an "extended" battery for my Infuse when it lasted less than the OEM but was falsely rated higher. So if by chance the Hyperion batteries don't hold out I can always return them. I am sure they will work fine though, at least for the purposes that I need them for.
I just ordered this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005VBNYDS/ref=oh_o06_s00_i00_details
Basically it's an external battery; this worked better for me as I have multiple devices that sometimes need an extra "kick" so I didn't want to be limited to a single battery for a single device.
If the Hyperions perform like the one I bought, you should be satisfied. It seems to operate as long as the Samsung one that came with the phone.
That being said, I also ordered the Samsung charger/battery combo that's also $30, and sold one of the Hyperion batteries and the charger. So now I've got 2 Samsung batteries and 1 Hyperion in rotation. I can't really tell the difference among them.
In the end, I think you get more bang for the buck with the Hyperions.
both OEM batterys came in today from amazon. havent got to use it yet, but same box from AT&T store
Just wanted to mention that I purchased two Anker stock size batteries and wall charger with additional USB port for $29 shipped.
They come in a very nice box... almost looks like a gift box, and everything has 18 months of warranty. Can't beat it for the price. I bought it from Ankerdirect on eBay.

I'd had great experience with S3 and S2 batteries and chargers from them. The Note 3 charger is ONLY for the Note 3. It's not a universal charger that will charge any Anker battery, but I prefer that, because the previous models, though universal, were a bit difficult to adjust the pins on for charging.
Really happy with the investment.
Hi, have you found to be the original Anker batteries? regards

I also have this kit and it is very good! Anker's warranty is seriously the best out there.
Has anyone used a NOOT battery before? According to their website, it does have NFC built in.
It's currently $5 per battery on Amazon. Looks exactly like the Anker, but with different branding. Most likely the same battery but at less than 1/2 the cost.

Do you really think Anker's batteries are designed in house?
You can contract your name onto any product template up in the Shenzhen
Have you noticed that many of their products look like the generic ones you'd find on the fleabay sporting different brands
They have good CS, I'll give you that
To those who have this kit, does it take longer for the charger to charge compared to the stock charger? I had this with my note 2 and it took forever (around 12 hours) to do a full charge on a completely dead baytery. I'm thinking if I should get this or the official Samsung spare battery charger

I dont think it takes any longer... I never really noticed because it is always fully charged when it is time to switch the batteries.

I picked this up recently. $30 seems fair considering the batteries support NFC. I prefer the non-universal charger that this comes with.
I had the equivalent ($20) product for my S2, and the Anker batteries outlasted the stock and replacement OEM Samsung batteries by a long shot. Of course, the original battery that came with the S2 did swell up like a balloon in less than a year.

I would never buy that battery. Ever.
There's a reason that it's half the cost. You get half the reliability.
And yes you can get cheap stuff over there (Shenzen) because a lot of it is the cast offs and slightly imperfect versions.
I've been getting close to two days of average use per Anker battery, even though my Android System usage has spiked since updating to Kit Kat. So slightly better than the stock battery on Jelly Bean.
I've bought anker batteries for all my phones and so have my friends. The factory Samsung batteries ive had all ballooned up. All my ankers are still good. They seem to last longer than the factory batteries, maybe I'm just imagining things.
Currently I rarely ever charge my phone on the cable, I'd rather not risk wearing out the usb port.
I wake up, swap in the charged battery from the charger and stick the old one in the charger. Rinse repeat.
Is it just me or these batteries with charger cost US $260
Many sellers raise their price to something ridiculous when they are out of stock. Still $29.99 on Amazon.
I bought a set of these for me and my Fiance as soon as we got our Note 3's. We are both very accustomed to having spare batteries, we also had some with our Galaxy S3's. I have not had any issues to speak of with these batteries. Life is on par with stock battery, charge as expected, charger is functional etc. I would highly recommend them. I think I snagged them for about $26 on Amazon a couple weeks ago.

It should work with that variant, if you can get it I highly recommend it, it doesn't overcharge the batteries therefore maintains a better health in the long run. It may not say your variant because I think its a USA LG G3, and I am in the UK and they listed the most popular variants here. If such problems you can always return, should be 100% ok.
I'm confused... Why don't you just get another original battery... ?
I got that original battery from Amazon for $11 shipped and it work great. NFC is working too. I thought all those third party batteries NFC will not work.

I'm thinking about ordering the Anker 3000mAh Li-ion Battery, but I'm also considering getting (preferably) the, Perfine 3000mAh OEM Li-ion Battery, because they both have IC Chips but,
the Perfine has IC Chip states it has all these features; "prevents short circuiting, overcharging, overheating and lengthens battery life"
the Anker IC Chip only states its features; "prevents overcharging & prevent short-circuiting"
BUT in the Perfine info at Amazon it says -Without NFC functionality.
AND I have My LG G3 which has the OEM cover, with GPS/NFC parts embedded into the back.
So my questions are this;
1.)Do all IC Battery Chips have all the same great features, and they just didn't state all the features on their Amazon page? Or Does the Perfine IC Battery Chip really have more IC features?
2.)My LG G3 has the OEM cover,GPS/NFC parts embedded into the back. Do I need a NFC/GPS battery for NFC/GPS to work? Or will my cover be all I need?
3.)If my OEM Cover is all I need will my GPS/NFC take a performance hit?

I think reading thru the reviews from both should give you a clue on which one to get (hint: the one with more reviews) :good:
I've used Ankers in 3 of my phones, and all have been stellar.
Any suggestions for replacement batteries you can get in the UK? Bought one from MobyMemory and that was worse than my 2 year old battery. I think it is a fake battery as it doesn't have the holes in the second 'tooth'.

I have bought two batteries recently in the UK for my stock LG G3 (D855), one from Amazon and one from Ebay both batteries do not work and I get 'Invalid battery - shutting down' with both. If you look on Alibaba you will see a large number of fakes on sale and and I think these are just re-sold on the likes of Amazon or EBay UK.
Interestingly, both batteries were shipped by Royal Mail Post and that is apparently illegal.
I do not know, but I am getting the impression that there is now something in the firmware that can detect these fake batteries and reject them. Also I do not think Anker sell their replacement battery in the UK.
Also, some of these fake batteries are known to swell and damage the phone (see reviews on Amazon uk).
A genuine LG G3 battery can be had via the recommened LG supplier http://www.4lg.co.uk/product.pl?pid=5148198 though at 27.91 + shipping it is expensive.
A genuine battery will have a white spot, otherwise it is a fake?
I am curious to know if by updating the kernel in some way there may be a way to still use the cheaper after market batteries?
If you make a major discovery about UK sourcing then let us know.
Not sure how to spot a fake battery but read somewhere that the connector teeth are supposed to have holes in them.
Where is the white mark supposed to be on the battery? next to the connecting teeth (or whatever the golden things are called)
I have ordered a 3800mah battery from mboynow as it seems to have the marks on the teeth and is made by the seller. They also pay for the return which I thought was good. (cant post links as I am a newbie)
I'll report back when I get it. Most amazon reviews are positive but not all.

If you look on the second image shown on this link http://www.4lg.co.uk/product.pl?pid=5148198
you will see a white dot to the left of the 4 contacts - this is a sign of a genuine battery.
It is a shame we cannot get the same prices as in the USA as official batteries are only $15
What version of firmware are you running? (goto - settings->General-> About phone -> software info -> software version) - I would expect to see V30n-EUR-XX for the UK running android 6.0
I thought that dot was a sign of water damage. I have two original LG G3 batteries supplied by LG. One has an orange spot and the second a white.
I run v30a-234-20.
Battery dispatched so hopefully I can report back soon.
Got the battery last saturday and it gives about 12-14 h of life so not as good as the original battery when I got the phone. It still seems to hold the charge quite ok but I was expecting it to last more than a day as it is 3800 rather than 3000. Will compare it to my old battery tomorrow and see what the difference is. Alas it didn't resolve the problem I had with the phone randomly restarting.
Has anyone tried these?
