I wouldn't get from Ebay. I ordered one, the wire was to short, it came out on the wrong side, and it only lasted a few months before I had random reboots and heat issues. Try IFixit for about $50 if you need the tools, or Mobil Defenders if you don't for about $15. I've purchased from both places, and after about 6 months they are still going strong.
The only place that still makes those batteries is... China third-party factories. So you won't get NEW OEM batteries.
I found one on e-bay, about €20 including shipment to the Netherlands, from a German seller.
The query i used was "Original Battery Motorola GA40"

The official site doesn't seem to stock these anymore. Does anyone know if they are available anywhere else?
I have been through a Cameron Sino replacement which, despite being 1500mah, lasts no time at all after only a couple of months. The original even at 1350mah was a better performer.
Have you tried Ebay? I just bought brand new battery's for my kaiser from there for less than $12
dealextreme for about 3$ each or 8$ for a extra large battery with a replacement phone back. I order from there all the time and the best part is free shipping no matter how small the order~
the batteries on dealextreme are aged and the one that looks like the original is a cheap counterfait, real junk

Agreed, i bought one on DX too....its crappy, i'm looking for one as well.
HTC retailer store carries their brand batteries.
FWIW, Just thought I would check today and low and behold, they were available..
I ordered one and I will report back with results.. Make sure you get one with the back with the speaker opening.. one of the other ones does not have it.. the thanks button is right below the link.

I bought one before from Hong Kong, it worked very well (exceeded my expectations, especially for the price)...but I'll never use an extended battery on the 3D just because the texture on the back of the phone makes this phone so unique!
you are probably looking at roughly 2500mah actual
bought one, only 3 left
if this is from a "real" manufacturer, why do they only have 5 for sale?
Sumthin fishy here..
2 of the most faked/counterfeit items on ebay are batteries for phones and memory cards.
You couldn't PAY me to put a $15 battery in MY phone.
I ran one and my niece for a year with the EVO... Worked great...

when you get, is there a way to test the true mah ?
would love to know before i fork down $75 for siedio's battery this week
Great! Now I need to decide if this is the battery door I should make a mold for a TPU case around or not. I'm sure seidio and sprint/htc will release their own door as well.

Seidios batteries are traditionally way over-rated as well. My favorite product of theirs is the slim "extended" batteries that are actually less mAh and then the OEM battery I'm guessing this battery will come in at 2500-2800mAh, Seidios will probably be between 2800-3000. You can send the battery to batteryboss.org and they will test it, but I doubt you'll want to drop $75 on a battery and then send it to someone. I actually
have one of these standard size orange white and red batteries and so far it seems good. Maybe 90% of what the OEM battery is. I especially like that is has an Android on it!

$15 battery? Even the OEM batteries can be obtained for less then that. I just bought a Samsung battery for an i500 for $10. Evo 4G batteries are about $10 too. These batteries arent fakes, they arent advertised as being OEM. It's just a chinese brand, and from my testing so far they are well packaged and well performing.
Please make the tpu case for the Seidio extended battery, I love this smoke one I have for the standard battery. And I'm getting the Seidio 4000 this week
I'm getting the seidio "boss" battery, and would definitely buy a tpu case for it. These tpu cases are a gem, so well worth the purchase.

I had 9 original EVO batteries from ebay and they worked PERFECTLY.
Guaranteed they make them in the same factories, just some of them get one sticker, others get another sticker. Maybe they're in different towns, but I'm sure it's the same process and they work great for me. Not like the $60 batteries are made in america - they're made in China as well
These under 20 dollar battery's work.
But for how long
They can last a year but don't be surprised if it stops holding charge/discharges fast/takes long time to charge within a couple of months use
Its like a EverReady battery or those cheap batterys they have at the dollar store
They work but soon you have to replace

Ugh, dude, you're killing me with that signature! Every time I happen upon a post of yours I feel... umm... deeply uncomfortable? I don't even know what the emotion is exactly, it might be some brand new one I've never experienced before; I don't think I like it, though.

I bought two 1800mhr from China and they last a little more than the original HTC battery.. I had them for 2 weeks already and they last the same as when I bought them.. I am thinking if I should buy this one.

you should do a test on the weekend, other threads people say they peel the stickers and the 1800mah battery is marked only 1000mah under the sticker
Cmon guys she needs love to....u guys be polite and have respect for her ........lmaocopter
Ulllllllllllltttrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bought here... kinda cheap in my 2 cents
I have ATT 50% discount for accessories but the battery itself already 30-15 = $15. This one beats it.
Hope i can't go wrong for $13.99. If yes i at least still have the charger

I bought this and I do not regret it. They work great. Not a bad investment at all.
There is also a company called ferocity
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ferocity-2x...ccessories&hash=item3a6f87d5ef#ht_1822wt_1400
$11.99 free shipping. It is a U.S. seller. Fast shipping. Purchased monday and received on friday. I bought both of these and still came in under what AT&T charges for one battery and now I have four extra batteries and 2 external chargers. Win. The best part is the Note has awesome battery life so having this many batteries is overkill.

2x oem?? For 15?!! What a bargain! I may have to bite
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
Pretty sure this are fakes... But I am still considering buying them
I tried those ones before and they are pretty poor in fact. They are fake if people are questioning. Can't seem to hold charge after 4 days of use.
I checked these QCell ones on Amazon and they work very well for me. Getting around the same amount of battery life as my OEM. Using these as my primary nowadays

Hey guys I just wanted to share with you a PMA enabled battery door that will allow you to wirelessly charge your G3 with a Powermat charger. Here is a link:
http://www.aliexpress.com/store/pro...2-Housing-Shell-with/1628681_32274550167.html
I just ordered one yesterday, they are $30USD with free shipping from China. When I receive mine I will let you know what I think.
IMO this is a much better option than the stickers you can get. With the stickers you have to butcher your stock backplate which could complicate warranty issues. This way you're getting a new door and you don't need to worry about how to align the sticker properly and such.
I also ordered 3 Powermat chargers from Amazon.com. They were $4 each and shipping for all 3 combined was about $5. I shipped them to CBI on the US side of the border and I will pick them up in a couple of weeks.
Anyhow, I just thought I would share about a cheap/good way to get wireless charging with your G3.
You can also get this one in the us for the same price. I bought it because I didn't have to wait for shipping from China. It's been working great for months.

How does it compare to the original? My link is better for Canadians because amazon.com won't ship to us.

I don't have anything to compare it to as it's the only one I've ever used, but it has worked flawlessly. I suggested the one from amazon because you said you were shipping to the US and then picking up. Either way, it's an option and I know it works.
Post back when you get the one you ordered. I'm curious to see if it causes the battery door to bulge like mine. That's the only downside.
Can anyone comment if these are legit?

Seller claims they are genuine and their rating is decent, but don't want a fake.
Thanks in advance.

This phone is extremely hard to find a legit battery for. But my rule of thumb is, if you want genuine, don't go to ebay. Check my thread that may help

Ebay is fine if you know what you're doing. I purchased one from a seller a while back and haven't had any issues with it, but I made sure to do my research beforehand.
The seller took pictures (not generic web images) of each battery he was selling, still in their LG hard plastic packaging that you would get if you bought it from a store. Not the no-packaging bulk factory batteries that everyone else sells. And unlike those bulk batteries, the one I purchased had the same language writing as my stock battery: English, Korean, French, Spanish, and Portuguese(?). Compared to other batteries you see on ebay that are all in Chinese save for some bits and pieces of English.

Because I don't have one within a 100 mile radius of my current location? That's like assuming I live in a big city and have access to every single store and manufacturer dude, not cool.
I bought 3 battery from ebay 2 from 1 seller and 1 with the LG charging cradle. I have been using them for 4 months. I read reviews on amazon about so-called legit batteries and people say that it isn't compatible with phone.
Hello,
I bought a genuine battery from Amazon and discovered that is really old (produced un june 2014).
I checked also other sites on Amazon and all batteries seems 1 year old.
The battery seems impossible to find in real shops.
I have heard that LG battery cells are not the best and break down over time. Does anyone know if this is true? just wondering anyways if not buying a genuine battery what would be a good brand to buy?
On my Samsung phone I was pleased with an Anker brand aftermarket battery.
Personally I advice you a better one (IMHO):
http://www.amazon.com/Battery-Anker...F8&qid=1446501645&sr=8-2&keywords=lg+g3+anker
This battery is really well made and got premium cells.
I've purchased one for my Samsung Galaxy S2 (ofcourse related model) and it totally outperforms stock battery.
I'm really happy with it!

Are you sure? I've seen this listing on Amazon as well even before I read your post. I agree with @fubag, by the looks of the terrible reviews, that is a fraud of a seller.
Post something only if you have bought from it!
You can check this by the way :
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/100-...b201644_4_79_78_77_82_80_62,searchweb201560_1
Exactly...i 've got one from aliexpress..It looks like its original.
I bought Anker G3 battery (two) and charger package for the cost of probably just one genuine battery (if you can actually find a real one), couldn't be happier. Performance as good as the original battery. The charger is very convenient to use and the charging speed is decent (overnight). So now I have three batteries, always fully charged and ready to go for any trip I will take.
Have you tried contact you local lg service center
Its around 20$ send through you home��
I call to call center they send infomation how to pay the money in sms.i just pay it on Bank.waiting for it about 3-5days
