I have one on order as my original battery can't survive more than a few hours of no use at all
i bought a couple of 5/10 dollar "1600 mAh" batteries off of ebay and they work 110% for me...look up my threads in this part of the forum and you'll see pics, reviews and info. Buy em!
can you link your revs?
Just bought one of these myself, any feedback from anyone?
just bought one too, i will let yall know how it turns out.
mine arrived today, just stopped charging this moment
Hope this is worth it...
Just ordered one as the OEM batt on my G1 is not cutting it... Any feedback from those who may be using this battery already?
-Thanks!
Normally I'm a reader not a poster, but I just bought 2 of these batteries off eBay (before reading the horrible reviews) since my OEM battery wouldn't last more than a phone call. I didn't really care if it did better than the OEM, I just needed something to hold me over until I decided to get a new phone.
It took about 2 weeks to get here, and I wasn't expecting any better than OEM but I'm actually impressed. Contrary to what I've been reading the label doesn't feel like it's been slapped on over the original.
Yesterday was it's first full run. Took it off the charger at 9AM and back on at about 2AM at a 39% charge. About 35 minutes of phone calls, half an hour of gtalk, and some market updates. Wifi off, 3G on, brightness at about 40%, bluetooth off, and CM-5.0.7.
I guess we'll see how long the good performance lasts.
mine arrived but lasts as the stock.. is this normal???

I've read many review that people's phones get around 20 minutes of extra heavy use while testing (so all radios on and looping a video). I don't have one, but I'd buy one.

If its less than a year old, not rooted, and no evidence of physical damage or water damage, then they have to fix it under warranty.

Yeah I just got mine fixed for it stop charging. I was happy they didn't even say anything about it being rooted might have just gotten very lucky. They also didn't delete data thank God. Hope they do same fur you.
Do you know if she may have mistakenly put the wrong side of the charger in? That's what I did for a second and it wouldn't charge anymore couldn't even connect to computer.

Im not sure if thats whay she did or not. Of course if she did she wont admit it but nothin looks damaged. As of right now its still at 80% but i have a feeling once this thing dies we wont be abke to power it back up. It was xmas gift from her grandmother and of course her grandmother cant find the reciept and paid cash for it. I called geek squad and they said theres nothin they can do because theres no reciept and we dont have bestbuys insurance. They told me to call htc and see what they can do. Also is there maybe a power mat for tablets like there is for phones?

Power Mat requires access to the charge port, or to replace the battery door. So that's not going to help you in this case. Calling HTC is your best bet.
Had a problem like this. The Tab inside the charging port was pushed in too far. I took the case off, and pushed the tab back out then reset the two positioning tabs to hold the connection tab in the correct position. If those two positioning tabs are not depressed deep enough the connection tab can be pushed in out of place and no connection is made.
Im not mechanically incline enough to do that lol.....i called htc and told em the story there sent me out a package with a return shipping package. Apparently this is a common issue. They said as long as theres no physical damage or water damage it shouldnt be an issue. The case has been in an otterbox since day one

Just get a small pair of pliers and pull that little tab out, then you should be good, I yanked it out day one.
ok thanks I'll try it later, I only fear that it comes with more, hehe gibts, but where a replacement part?

I know you are trying to translate...but "infected" sounds so wierd
Anyway....you are probably going to have a hard time finding that cover. I'm sure you did the search on the web. No luck there then you may try to contact HTC
Hey all got a z2 yesterday. I dropped it in the hot tub (no biggie right) ? Pulled it out and the screen went black never to come on again. All ports were 100% sealed. I threw it on the charger overnight, and in the morning it was showing green but still not turning on. Tried vol up and power, vibes 3 times and then nothing. I think it might be on but its on silent so Idk. Not sure what my options are
Could you get it repaired? I'd actually just take it back and say it's defective, which it is. I'm really sorry to hear about your problems though. Best of luck!

Well all the same though that the device still has its warranty. You should consider contacting the original owner to see if they still have the original receipt to get it repaired.
Snapped off one of the plastic tabs on my Gear S charging cradle. I'm always careful putting it on the watch. Now it won't stay on to charge. Going to try to get a new one tomorrow. Be careful!

Charging cradle - Gear S broken
I have the exact same problem. The clip on the charging cradle broke. I am also very careful with my devices and was unaware that it broke until it couldn't clip on one day.
Samsung will not honour warrantee on this because they say it is 'physical damage' . I am vehemently arguing that this did not break through any careless handling. The unit is very flimsy.
They MUST replace it. I am waiting a response from them.
I had the watch for barely a month now. How many of these crappy cradles will I have to go through???

This happened to a few people over at androidcentral.com as well. Same answer: Samsung won't honor the warranty, and they had to buy a new charger, which doesn't come cheap. I am super careful now, but feel it's only a matter of time until they all break
I also broke one of the clips on the charging cradle. I was not aware of any kind of warranty, but I have my own solution.
Basically, I attach the charging cradle to the Gear S and slide everything onto an empty vitamin bottle. This keeps the charging cradle attached and I have not had any problems so far. I will post a picture of this when I recharge my Gear S tonight.
Just happed to me...I use the gear s as a standalone device on t-mobile...called them and they are replacing the charger for free. I should e getti it Friday and will let you guys know. Btw Has anyone tried to glue the broken plastic part back on and reconnected it?

Make sure they send you the actual cradle. Others were told they'd get a replacement and were shipped the wall wart instead.

T-Mobile sent me a wall wart without the cradle. T-Mobile doesn't carry a replacement charger.
You may want to call and confirm before it arrives.

My cradle is still OK, but ever since I started hearing about this issue, I am dread having to charge my Gear S.
To all those that have broken their cradles. . . .
Just wondering what technique you use for attaching the watch to the cradle?
Do you centre it then press in the middle or do you locate one tab then press on the opposite tab?
I always use the, one tab then opposite, technique and it seems to work well with no issues so far.

Attach at the bottom then snap the top. Mine is broken. Pops off from the top. The top tab is cracked.
I am FURIOUS and will start making YouTube videos to call them out. Hopefully everyone else can take a few minutes to do the same. Faulty garbage.

I was just thinking that it would be helpful if all of you with broken cradles could post pictures. That's undisputable proof - and once online, it will never go away.
I am also just curious to see what they look like, as I have an idea of what is breaking off, but have never seen the defect myself (yet).

It's not even "broken off" the tab is just not working anymore.
It's going to happen to everyone's. It's obviously the way it is built. I'll have to do a video because you can't tell it's broken by just looking at it.

Yes, please. It would help identify if everyone is having the same issue, or if there are different weak spots.
Until now, I thought I needed to take special care not to break anything off - now I am even more nervous

Okay, I contacted Samsung Support USA on G+ and they are taking care of me.
I document things--I shared everything from photos of the problem to my purchase receipt (privately of course).
I think they are aware there is an issue.
I made a YouTube clip here http://youtu.be/_zq0e9U_mB4 and I'll attach some photos.
