Hi,
Our nord 2 device is going older and older and like every other phone battery is degrading. For now i wont to change battery because is good now but i know today that i will stay with this phone until new big feathers come. New phones these days brings nothing more for me. Replece phone will be waste of money.
So i know that battery replacement is easy to do but always after that if phone remember cycles of charges, phone will not take all from new battery. So someone know how in oneplus phones it can be done? or maybe other things to do ?
Let us know.

I've had my Flyer a few months now and in the last few days the battery seems to be draining very quickly. I charged it full again last night and this morning it was at 88%.
I've turned everything off so just the bare bones of the device are alive and i'm using Juice Defender, and still no joy. It's only started doing this in the last few days so i presume the battery is on the way out very quickly.
I've let it drain to 10% and charged it, and it's made no difference.
I'm not going to mess about with settings and more waiting to see what it does etc...., I really just want to get a new battery and be done with.
Where can i buy a new battery? I've had a look on fleabay and no joy.
Any suggestions where to get one, part no. etc...?
Many thanks in advance

happened with me also....10% battery drained overnight...
what app is using most of ur battery?
sometimes push service in some free market apps drains a lot of battery and it keeps running even when app is closed... check running processes... well i uninstalled that app with push service and all became normal
Thanks for that but i've had a look through and it would seem that there isn't anything happening over night that i'm not expecting or that is being very hard on the battery.
I'm pretty confident the battery is the culprit here. Sourcing a new battery however is proving to be a problem. Somebody somewhere must be selling them.
I've just been on to HTC in the UK, they have a service centre not very far away from me and they won't sell me a battery or even give me a part no. for the battery.
Come on, somebody must know where to get one.
I think i might have found somewhere in China...
Battery - BG41200
3.7v - 4000mAh
If the prices were cheap enough how many of you would be interested in buying a battery for your Flyer.
Perhaps do a group buy?
i thought flyers battery is not user replaceable?
It's very replaceable and easy to do.

I'm going to have to look at getting a new battery sooner or later. It's getting to the point hat the battery is always running low by the time I get home in the evening or even running out. With pretty much the same use it used to be good for a day and a half easily. Flyer was purchase may or june 2011 so it really needs to last another 16 months or so.
Well......I ask again. If anyone knows of where to buy an internal Flyer battery please post a linky.
I posted this thread earlier today
"I just wanted to know what people are getting out of their batteries. I unplug mine around 7:30 am when i leave for work. When I get to work i turn on my wifi (rooted thunderbolt) and leave that on all day. I have the setting to turn wifi off (flyer) when screen is off. When I get home around 5:30 i switch to my home network and by 8-10 my battery is pretty much gone. Is this normal battery life or are there any tricks I'm not aware of that will help with battery. My wife has an Ipad 1 and she seems to get days of use out of it before she needs to charge it.
Also, I don't watch movies or video at work... most of my use is surfing, twitter and email."
I'm trying to figure out if what is normal battery life and If mine came with a bad battery. If so Yes I would be interested in getting a new one.
The Ipad battery has much longer life and is a much bigger capacity battery. The new HTC Jetstream also has a much bigger capacity battery as well. I think HTC have learned lessons on how much battery power these flyers use, but unfortunately have used Flyer owners as guinea pigs, rather like the first Apple iPhone but that had terrible battery issues as well although they've gotten better over time.
When my Flyer was brand new the battery lasted for ages and i couldn't understand what people were on about the battery not lasting for very long. So up until a few weeks ago my battery was doing fine and then almost within a day or two the battery started to run down quickly and has been doing so ever since. I've since loaded/unloaded new ROMS and done all the usual procedures for deleting the battery stats etc..., and still no joy.
I think the problem is with the battery not being man enough for the job at 4000mAh, and the drain is such that the battery is being worked hard since September last year (in my case) to a point where it is now progressively failing. I'm not so sure either that it's all that good in terms of quality.
Most of that time it has been charging from one source or another. If my Flyer isn't in the car or in the house it's not often being used battery only unlike most other people probably use the battery only a lot, so i can't understand why the battery is failing when it's not even that old.
This is a big issue with the Flyer and for what the device cost i would have expected a lot better. I think the Flyer in itself is a fantastic piece of kit that i will no doubt keep for a very long time as i did my XDA IIi but i never had problems buying another battery for my IIi. HTC will not sell me a battery, they insist i send the device to them and they will swap it but will cost about £50-£60 for the pleasure. I flatly refuse to pay that!!
What is required is a bigger capacity battery (6000-8000mAh) in the same packaging as the current battery however, i think for now i would happily settle for another of the same battery if i could just get hold of one.
So far it's proving an impossible task!!
Just to add: Once you've made sure there aren't apps being opened at startup that don't need to be opened until you're ready to use them, also make sure wifi/bluetooth, mobile data is all off when not required, and all the usual tweakes to make sure animations are off, screen is on the lowest brightness etc..., then there is not a lot more you can do. I don't know how much use something like Juice Defender will be as that only makes sure your data connections are off at night and other times you specify. I've tried it and it didn't help at all so i don't know what else to suggest apart from turning the radio part of the phone off completely at night if it isn't on charge.
If i leave my phone off charge all night, having fully charged first, i wake up in the morning and it's down to around 86-88% battery.
Hello fellow members.
My battery is almost 2y old. I think it's just gone bad already after this time.
5 days ago i changed my rom to newest ReVolt rom and kernel to newest Dorimanx.
Just before that (so i think it's not a case) i noticed significant baterry drain on screen on and off. Its about 1% every 3 min on screen on and about 20% slepp thru 8h in airplane mode (when i sleep)
But can i somehow chceck is my battery charging to the full capacity as new battery ?
If i'm not clear pls ask.
Without getting another battery to do a comparison or without dedicated battery testing gear, unlikely. However, I'd be getting a new one if one managed to last me two years without crapping itself well before that.
Edit - Having said, that, you can be fairly certain a two year old battery would either not be able to hold a charge/discharge as efficiently as a new(er) battery given batteries lose the ability to do these things the more you use them/the more you charge & discharge them
Buy a new one.

End of october im getting a S4 so wanted get thru somehow
But cant you check the real capacity with some app ? and whats the capacity of new original sammsung battery ?
Yep I hear you on the holding out for a new phone thing; I was going to wait until about then but my S2 started playing up hardware-wise & pretty much made the decision to go earlier for me.
From memory, a newish standard SGS2 battery holds around 4200mV full & about 3500mV close to empty (and I'm going way back in my memory here as I used a 2000mAh battery for all but the first two months), but that can be a little bit variable. I think given the age of the one you have, if it's significantly under that @ 100%, it's probably safe to say it's on its last legs (which is likely anyway purely because of how long you've had it).
My samsung galaxy s2 has some inconvenience issues to be solved. Since last month ago it begin warning high voltage when charging the turn-on phone. Then it would stop the charging the battery . It can be charged only if I turned off the phone and turned it on when it says 100%.
Not sure whether was the battery go wrong and its battery life already very crappy, and the things even worse when the phone was upgraded( it drained a lot as constantly searching for 4G). In fact a few weeks before, I asked help from friends borrowed his MPJ spare battery for this battery issue. His replacement battery was better but why Sprint and Samsung know this is the major complaint but still have failed to correct ever…
I also have been to store but nothing is solved unless to pay to have it back to repair. then I have to begin purchased extended batteries(one even have much higher capacity at amazing 5000mAh) and chargers followed with the friend who helped me so that i keep several charged and ready to change out as needed. but i still wonder anyone know why it would warning the high voltage and it did not appear again after changing batteries?
Could be the battery, but you fail to mention which version of the S2 you have (assume you have the i777) AND what you upgraded the firmware to. If you did a stock OTA update and you're not rooted, there's really nothing anyone can help you with other than suggest a new battery.
If you're rooted, I would flash a different rom first before investing in a replacement battery.
If you decide to get a new battery, I recently bought this one for $5 and can vouch for it's compatibility (minus NFC, which has never really worked properly for our phone anyway).
You will find after a fresh flash most roms will seem to consume more battery than it used to. Give it a few charging cycles before you decide that your battery is bad,or the rom, or the kernel is bad. It may need to settle in a bit.
Sweet deal on the battery Steve:thumbup:

I feel pretty bad since Ive been bouncing around this forum asking questions about the root process for my friends Nook Tablet like there's no tomorrow. But Unfortunately I have yet another question about the Nook Tablet. I've done the Rooting process thanks in large, if not completely, to digixmax. But one thing Ive noticed is that the battery seems to die pretty quickly. Unfortunately I didnt take a moment to play with it before rooting, so I don't know if the battery was just getting old, or if it's because how much the CM11 Kitkat Rom is taxing the Nook Tablet. Either way, I explained to my friend that the battery may not last as long because the Nook Tablet probably wasn't exactly design to have all the features/functions of KitKit. She looked into battery option yesterday and cam back with this:

Does anyone know if the NewPower99 batteries are any good? And would it power the Tablet longer than the current factory battery?

I realize this is a old post but I thought I would chime in on it. I have done a lot of research lately as I have a battery issue. Well it is a problem with phantom touches when the battery gets to 23% or so. From all I have read this is a battery issue. At first I was thinking it needed to be calibrated. However after digging though all the information, most battery calibration methods just delete the battery stats. This apparently is only data since the last time the device was charged, and not long term information that affects calibration (confirmed by a Google engineer). I did read about one other file to delete in \rom max#### if I remember correctly, and that might do it. I may try that soon.
The only other method I saw was to charge it full, run it down till it shuts down, charge it till full, turn it on and let it sit ON for 30 minutes (set screen shut down to 30 minutes), then plug it in to charge full. With some Android devices this can recalibrate the battery (which makes sense), but not sure if it will work on a NT or not. I am going to try it though.
But back to the battery, I did like the look of it and the video they did. I may purchase one from them if all of the above methods don't work. Someone else got a 3rd party battery from another company and said it worked well http://forum.xda-developers.com/nook-tablet/general/changed-battery-nook-tablet-t2829771 it is the same capacity which IS less than a original NT battery (3200 vs original NT at 4000) so you won't get the same runtime that you would with a brand new NT. That said all LI-ion batteries degrade with age, so even if you happened to find a new unopened device, the battery would not quite be the same as when it was released. Also while you can get batteries from say Ebay, you do not know how many cycles or life is left in them. Could be a few days, a few months or years. Even if they say 80% of the capacity is left in them, that is approximately what you will get with one of the new batteries anyway.
The one company is cheaper than the other (20 from batteryship.com vs $40 from newPower99) and they are the same capacity so I am not sure which one you would want to go with. As far as presentation goes, Power99 wins with their nice video on you tube and the look of the battery itself. Both seem to include the two tools necessary to do the battery replacement. So again up to you which way you want to go. Both have 1 year warranty. One thing about newpower99 they will install it for you for $60 http://www.newpower99.com/Battery_Replacement_Service_for_Nook_Tablet_p/nook-tablet-pbr.htm I can't vouch how well they do but if someone is really worried about doing it, then I would say let them do it instead.
Personally though I would just do it myself. But I did just find this on the newpower site "•Opening an electronic device and replacing the battery does entail risks to the functionality of the unit. NewPower99.com does not guarantee the overall functionality of your unit after battery replacement service. You acknowledge these risks and understand that NewPower99.com's maximum liability is limited to the cost of the battery replacement service." Which doesn't instill confidence in sending it to them lol.
sup guys
in the first place id like to say a big thankyou to all the people who spend so much time in developing for this amazing phone !
with the help of rudi666 i was able to set up my h960a until it is almost perfect for my needs.
it took me 4 weeks and 3 complete wipes to finally setup a killer custom phone. though its sad that this phone doesnt get more attention. its the best phone ive ever had, very fast, reliable, great screen and cam, killer sound, no bugs at all. with root and 200gb micro SD almost infinite possibillities !
since getting a bigger battery is obligatory for everyday work with this phone, i imported 2 ZL 9000ah from usa, cost me a lot of money (customs robbery) but now i have finally an amazing phone. rootet, flashed twrp, learned a lot about flashing, related commands and all this programming stuff i had no clue about in the first place.
but there is just one issue, the community seems unable to solve:
the insane hardcoded battery-capacity of 3000mah. even after 2 weeks of only getting into just this one problem, i found no way to solve this. no matter what i do, i cant bring the phone to read the 9000mah correctly.
instead, it behaves like many unsers mentioned:
round 1
100% goes down to 0%,
shuts off.
turning the phone on manually again, starts again with 65%.
getting down to 0 again.
turning on manually again, starting with about 8% again.
turning to 0% and now its finished. start to recharge using the LG charger with 2amps.
charging for the first time, phone shows 100% after ~1,5h.
in the first place i thought: oh, that was quick. plug off charger, started to use the phone,
and the battery-information went from 100 to 0 in no time. i was confused until i got deeper into it and finally learned that, unlike my samsung S3 i used with Cyanogen, the V10 is hardcoded with the stock-battery capacity of 3000mah.
with my samsung S3 i had Anker 7000? mah and NO probs at all, everything worked fine.
what i didnt know was, that even when the phone is charging and shows 100% after about 1,5h, it needs another 5-7 hours to charge completely to a "real" 100%.
so i tried EVERYTHING my humble capabilities allowed me to. no success.
i thought that many users have the same problem, and are tired of restarting the phone after just 1/3rd of battery power drained, all the information there is should be collected in one dedicated thread. i only could find spare spreaded information about this issue on XDA.
if anyone knows of a way to set the kernel-capacity manually oder any other solution, i would be really gratefull !
thanks/greetings from berlin germany
hello ? anybody dere ?
echooooOOOOOOOooooooo hello.
after a while of using and about 5x recharging from 10/20% to 100%
AccuBattery Pro shows the estimated capacity at 89XX mah, whats really close to the ZL 9000mah.
and ive noticed that the phone now endures up to 5 days normal usage in ONE session, so no restarting is necessary !
it seems, the phone learned the new bat capacity after a while and the hardcoded 3000mah dont seem to matter anymore.
so, problem solved.
cpuZ and other apps reading the kernel-info still show 3000mah but who cares. i got 5 days in one session.
so i guess this could help some people who also be confused about this issue.
i think ZL should put this information onto their site to inform people who got the same problem as i had.
ECHHOOOOOOOOO....
