Hi, i want to get a new battery for my tab since this one is giving me only up to 5hrs SOT (i have read it should be more than 9hrs sot). So i searched eBay and there are many low priced batteries but i don't believe that they are good. I need a help where to look for an OEM or a good generic battery?
Also i found newpower 99 batteries but they seem a little expensive and i haven't found a review about quality.
If you have any experience, your help would be appreciated.
Hey.
I search the OEM Battery too. Do you find anyone?

I haven't found any online OEM battery store. I'm thinking about buying one from ebay but i'm not sure yet. If you find one, please let me know.

Have any of you replaced your battery with the newpower99? If so, how was it to replace and how is the battery performing? My Tab Pro 10.1 is starting to get less SOT - so I think I may be due for a battery swap soon.
I haven't bought it, because I improved my battery life by removing it for 30mins.

whats the point of removing it ? my wife's tabpro battery dropped from 25% to 14% then to 4% straight. not in between numbers. quite odd.
There is a thread about battery removing (i can't find it atm). It is a common problem with Samsung tablets.

This is what I purchased on Ebay and seems to give new life to my tablet. No longer do I run out of battery nearly as quickly as before.

Just posting to get opinions on after market batteries. I have owned the Atrix 4G since the day it came out with no complaints whatsoever. The battery life seems to be comparable to my old iPhone 3g (which i hated) but because the Atrix is so much better I obviously have it opened and am using it a lot more.
-Is it worth it to buy the optional extended batteries?
-Are they bigger that OEM batteries?
-How much longer is the battery life?
-If so, I assume my current Otter Box would not fit?
Thank you for the help.

The largest is a Seidio (which I dont think is out) it's only a 2200 MAH, compared to our 1900 (ish) MAH. I got a new replacement from moto because my battery life wasn't lasting as long as it was when i first bought it. Turned out I actually had the wrong battery mode on and it was using up too much power.
I have the 3600 mah, and while its big and you can't use a phone, it makes it easier to hold the phone imo, and lasts all day easily.

My review with heavy usage says you'll last forever. Now I squeeze a day and a half with stock battery. That battery pushes me several.

do you have a prob where the % do not reflect the actual battery usage? my battery can show 30% but after a reboot it will show 100%. I can do a reboot twice before it shows the actual %
I can confirm CEOGUY's report on the Seidio3200. It is indeed a beast.
I too experienced the battery calibration problem. I am now using the latest Battery Monitor Widget. Something was fixed in a recent update that allows the calibration to work correctly.

Does the battery req a special charger? Or just charging direct from the phone will be sufficient
No special charger, I use the OEM one.

Battery life on my Note easily lasts all day.

It would be helpful if you elaborate your Note's set-up. Such as like what ROM is being used, brightness level, LTE/no LTE, etc...
My Note currently has no issue lasting a full work-day with LTE on the whole time. And this is with moderate usage. (No videos, and minimal music)
I'm satisfied with mine... Just keep a charger near by.

There are only a few reasons why you see your battery life as terrible.
1) You are coming from an iPhone. But now you're using a tool of a phone, not a toy, so your battery life will be lower.
2) You are coming from the Droid RAZR MAXX, which is the only android with a bigger battery.
3) You have a rogue app that you didn't use before that is draining your battery life.
4) You are using excessive amounts of LTE data, and you came from a phone without LTE.
If those apply to you, there's your answer. If they don't, you may just have a bad device or battery.
You really need to be more specific when stating something as subjective as battery life is terrible. May I suggest you post screenshots of your battery stats so that you can give some insight to why your battery life is terrible. Coming on these forums and ranting without evidence won't get you very far.

Pretty much every device is unique, even though they are produced and assembled in identical fashion. It's possible for a device to have faulty software or internal hardware from the factory that could drain battery, and it's also possible for it to be shipped with a faulty battery. It's not a common issue, but also not unheard of. If nothing in his usage of the device is out of the ordinary, then it's possible he received a faulty device or battery, and should exchange it.

Install cpu spy and make sure you are going to deep sleep. For weeks I couldn't make it through the day and once I realized that the phone wasn't sleeping I found the app that was causing it and deleted it. I get great battery now but still reboot every morning because my original charging cable was lost so my phone will not sleep until I reboot.

I would say battery life can be defined by screen on time only.
Brightness and lte makes much difference.
Anyways just refer to other battey forums. Search helps.

Compared to what???
If you are trying to compare your Note to Apple itoy that is like trying to compare pink tricycle with pink tassels to a Corvette ZR1. No comparison at all, definitely more than apples and oranges. Having owed, well still own till I sell it, Dell Streak only other 5 inch screen out there. Agree it is still not apples to apples (or vette to vette), but Shelby Mustang to ZR1 and can say the battery performance is about the same. I upgraded my Steak to a 2400 mAh battery and had all services on and OC'ed to 1.9 ghz, yes I know single core, standard definition resolution, etc, but as close as you can get in 5 inch screen world. So far the 2500 mAh and stock ROM, with everything on, battery time is relatively the same. Will say only phone that might compare is Samsung Skyrocket HD that is set to come out this month(?), inside they are close to the same, but the screen is 4.6 inch super Amole plus.
Can anyone help me out? This is my battery on battery monitor widget. It says 1500 mah. I've only had my phone off the charger for 3 hours and I'm on 33 percent and watching it drop fast.

Battery Monitor Widget guesses at the capacity (or hard codes it). Go into the apps settings and you can tell it the battery capacity.
Also, make sure your using decent batteries. The two for $15 deals on ebay are not direct replacements. Stick with oem or brand names llike Anker.

Hey guys I ran into a problem today, the thing is, I went to business in another country for about a month without bringing my Galaxy Tab with me. When I returned the battery has been drained from the tablet and now even plugging it in for the whole day wouldn't boot it up.
I have some important files stored on the Galaxy Tab, is there anyway I can boot it up?
Thanks in advance!

If you think it's the battery then just buy one off eBay as I did. it's easy to crack the case open to switch the battery. The problem is diagnosing whether in fact it's the battery or something else entirely as I'm trying to figure out with this spare tablet that I have. My other tablets haven't given me so much trouble as this one has.
For battery diagnosis, you need to be rooted and have phone apk if it is P7500. Type *#*#4636#*#* and it will take you to a menu, take battery information. You will see the state of your battery.
Cheers.

So far so good! Previously on my stock battery I used to get 7 hours max on heavy use ..running aokp 4.4.2 rom on HSDPA+ connection ..now I surpassed 7 hours and still 80%!
The only downside so far that it takes lots of time to recharge (unless you put the capacity in consideration )

You bet and you can always charge it back up if it gets around 50% and at least that way it will not take so long to charge.

Sure. i will find it from amazon. but we need brand name
The brand name is meaningless since it's a Chinese aftermarket battery, they all probably come out of the same back garden factory in Shenzen. Just pick the cheapest one you can find.

Thanks for the info
in really is about 5000mah i think..... maybe initially was better, after 3 montsh of use life decreased a little.
it is a good battery better than original. but it is 2 battery IN PARALLEL.
1 battery chinese WILL NEVER BE 3200mah like original. so it it is 2500 real....................... 2500 x 2 = 5000 mah about. a good amount, not the promised 7800.
has anyone tried an oversized battery. I see some 3800s that you can still use the factory back for.
Bump was wondering this too.

From what I've read and personal experience... Either get an OEM Battery or wait for ZeroLemon to come out with their Battery which I think is soon.
The others you'll find on eBay are junk. I bought one just to see and yep.. Junk.
Plus I don't think it's possible to have a 3800mah be the same size as the stock 3000 mah
