I ordered one and just got it in the mail today :) With $2 more for expedited shipping, from the time I placed the order, I received the battery in 5 days! :D

I'll post a full review after about 10 complete cycles. I don't want to prematurely judge without properly cycling the battery to use it to it's full extent :) so stay tuned... 10 cycles means about 10 days :o
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
Hey! Just received mine two today ;) Just stuck in first one and started charging, will give it a proper one ;D PM me your address and I`ll ship the battery for a capacity test to see what are they really worth ;) I`m sure many people is wondering ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ttabbal:
Thanks for the offer. Pm sent. I'll report here when I've done the testing. Be sure to include your address so I can return it to you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Vaddy23:
Okay just ordered the battery should get it in a couple days, can you guys confirm that the battery is reporting the right temperatures. I know I saw that it was with the battery monitor screenshot posted earlier in the thread I just wanted someone else's feedback...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AriaNoob:
I have the same problem with my cheap hong kong replacement, they work fine except for the temp, it always stays at 25c also...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
Just looked and it's hanging steady at 22.4c.. and it is a hot 90* day today. I just got done charging it around 15min ago..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
I'm still getting the same life out of the battery that I was originally. Well, not exactly the same.. but in the ball park. I'll be able to easily tell if it's lasting longer or not.. I've been monitoring the life of my battery regularly.. and I have no intentions of changing from my regular usage.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
When I first got the g2x.. Straight out of the gate, I began to monitor my battery life. Every single charge of the first 15+ charges, I watched the life span closely. The longest I hit from full charge to phone shutting off was 34hrs. I duplicated the max of 34hrs many times because it was my normal light usage. Proof? I posted many times about my battery in the past, go find my posts and see.

Upon my first charge on this battery, I'm currently at 37hrs and the battery is at 20%. This is with my typical light usage. Not once before did I hit over 34hrs without the phone shutting off. Ok, maybe I hit 34.5 or 35 once or twice on extreme light usage. 34 has been the # burned in my brain as the peak because I hit it multiple times. Keep in mind, the max of 34 was to the point of the phone literally shutting off. I'm now on 37hrs and 20% remaining.

One thing that I find interesting is that some are posting battery temps of around 24-25. This one has consistently been at 22.4c over the past 2 days, when temps in MI have been in the mid-90s (which is 32.2c). This is via spare parts that comes with Bionix.

All I can say is w00t!! For someone to say, "of course a new battery will get more life than one you have been using for a month...", that comment is invalid. I know exactly what my battery was getting, no question about it. I am 100% in unseen territory right now w/ this battery by at least 2hrs.

Regardless of what anyone says, the fact is that the battery last longer than my stock one.. no question about it. Either 1) the battery itself is a larger capacity or 2) the stock battery is crap. I choose to believe in both because, respectively.. 1) the battery appears slightly larger because it does not have the center indent that the stock one has and 2) because of all of the problems mentioned out there with poor battery life.

I'm considering this a definite buy..

Now seriously- this is too big for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jacob808:
yeah I seen the vid. I'm excited! I care more about the phones functionality than it's appearance. If the battery will make the phone last 3 days with moderate to heavy use, I will die a happy man. :D

Oh and did you read the comments below the youtube vid? I totally agree with loreto808. I really like to meet that guy and shake his hand. lol

sorry dude, wish I would have caught this while it was charging. I'll pop it on for 10-15min later on tonight.

It may be stuck on 22.4..? it hasn't read anything other than this in Spare Parts.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Vaddy23:
TechFu, I also placed an order for the battery with this seller on the 7th(Tuesday) very early in the morning and he claimed he shipped the battery out that same day and we have exchanged a couple messages and he is located in Vancouver, Canada and I'm in Minnesota so I will most likely get the battery before you, in fact it may be at the house already (I'm still at work) and yes the battery is shipped using USPS... When did you order the battery??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Vaddy23:
Oh and to answer your other question he did not provide a tracking number for me either and he told me he used air expedited letter for quicker delivery....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
negative. notta. good to go.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
it's a much cooler day here in MI.. It's been plugged in for 5min.. 22.3. Just checked again as I was typing, 22.2. Waiting 30min....... 22.2
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TechFu:
Vaddy23....

I ordered it last Friday June 03. How did you contact him? Through eBay (which is what I did today...with no response .). Or through the email in the eBay receipt? Thanks for the reply.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Vaddy23:
I contacted him via eBay messaging and I just sent him two messages requesting a tracking number and still no response.. I really hope we aren't getting screwed... either that or the batteries are coming directly from Hong Kong and not Vancouver..... he has 100% feedback if that's any consolation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TechFu:
Vaddy23...

Not too long after I replied...I got an email from him via eBay...

He also said he sends out next business day...and it should be about 4 business days.....so maybe I will get it tomorrow (well technicaly today) Fri..the 10th. Otherwise I will give it a few more business days. I will post whenever I drop get it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
Hi! I ordered mine from a different seller:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230621655260&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

Received within 4 days ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cy888:
I bought from that guy but from his local craigslist add. I txt'd him this morning to see if he had any more and seem he has sold them all. I asked if he will get more, and he said he maybe getting more sent to him from China. So I think he mails out from Vancouver. I just picked it up locally from him downtown for $25.

(also isn't here a canada post strike? although not sure if BC is affected yet)

As for the battery, Its been working great for me. I'm on stock rom but using faux's oc kernel. Froze some of the bloatware apps and now I'm getting a good day's use of bat life. Although its still somewhat strange. I dunno if its the phone use or what, but it'll sit at 100-97% for a while then the discharge rate is higher till it gets to like the 35% then back to a slow discharge. Yesterday i went form 830am to 140am and bat was at 15%.

Also in the last week I've been monitoring, the temp never changes from a range of 22.5 - 22.8 c. for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lannister80:
That can't possibly be accurate. Must have a fake/faulty temp sensor...right?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
mine has only ranged from 22.2 - 22.4... idk. Lemme kick a game on that tends to warm this sucker up... a'ight, 20min of game playin got this warm.. up to 22.6.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Xargon321:
it could be true hook a extrenal temp sensor on to the battery, if its a high discharge rate it probably stay nice and cool when this phone it using it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] frapaa:
I have received the battery now. Seems fine, but I will need more time to really notice any difference. Aslo, my stock battery kept my phone running for 40 hours on a single charge (phone is running on CM7 based ROM, stock ROM never lasted that long, 20 hours max).

Do you think there will be a 30% increase in usage time?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KiNG OMaR:
After 6 charge cycles and calibrating... This battery doesn't even last me a whole day. The stock battery lasted much longer :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Outlaw71:
Bummer, looks like his auction ended 3 days ago. His was $28 with free shipping. The only one up on ebay now is $39.99 plus shipping. :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Vaddy23:
Alright Techfu I received the battery today and its in my g2x charging at the moment ill report back in a few days when I've tested the battery life
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TechFu:
Vaddy23...

OK cool. I still did not get mine yet. So hopefully it will show up at my office Mon.or Tues.

So far it sounds like everyone is getting mixed results. At least from most of the posts...the battery seems to run cooler than the stock one. Mine is always above 31c. Most posts say this one runs in low 20c area. Anyway keep me posted after you have a few discharges.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ttabbal:
I received the battery for testing. I'm charging now. I'll be testing the stock battery while I'm at it. Might as well get a baseline. It might take a couple days to do a few cycles on each to make sure we get a good reading.

I have to write down the data as I go, might as well be here.. Note that the first couple cycles on a new battery are often lower, so this first result is more informational than anything... hopefully... :)

Andida:

1535 mAh

1587 mAh

1642 mAh

Stock:

1632 mAh

1614 mAh
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Vaddy23:
Unplugged my phone this morning its this battery's third full charge and I'm sitting @ 16 hours of battery life with 41% left, moderate to heavy use this battery blows stock away.... its not even close
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
Wicked, I`m awaiting results ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KiNG OMaR:
My experience was quite the opposite. In fact, I reverted back to the stock battery because the andida wasn't even lasting a whole day :( And this was after 6 cycles and calibration.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sinned17:
Same here. I am getting worst than stock after about a week. I calibrated it and everything. Still using it though might have to go back to stock soon.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jacob808:
I kinda thought that anything less then 2000mah would be about the same or less than stock. You know you can get a free replacement battery from Tmobile if you complain that you're just getting 6 hours from the stock battery. I'm pretty sure it's the same as the 1980mah from andida, but it's free, and the more G2x owners complain to Tmobile about the battery life, they just might give us a free extended battery the same way they did to tmobile customers who bought the HTC Shadow and complained that the battery died to fast.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dn3g3l:
that only works if you bought from tmobile. not every buy their phones from tmobile. other places were selling for much cheaper.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
well, i don't like those reports.. lol. I'm on my 4th charge so far, and I am definitely getting longer life. I'm a minimal user. The longest ever on the stock, 34hrs, which was repeated a bunch of times (full charge to full drain). The longest on this battery has been about 38hrs.

I have just used it for phone calls, a cpl game plays, a few web searches, app updates, etc over the past 24 or so hrs. I'm currently at 35.5hrs.. 23% remaining. Edit: On this specific charge, I hit 38hrs and had 15% remaining.. then plugged it in. I'm certain 40-42hrs could be achieved. Again, minimal use obviously.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Vaddy23:
I'm getting pretty much the exact results you are as indicated in my previous post...... For the others that are getting poor battery life have you tried installing CM7 and fauxs latest UV kernel? What ROM are you guys using, stock froyo? Also did you properly condition the battery? I let the battery die when I first got it and charged the phone for nine hours while it was off. Did that twice and installed battery calibration from market.....m
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sinned17:
Installing CM7 shouldn't matter if I'm comparing this battery to stock under the same conditions. I have conditioned the battery and calibrated it. It's really horrible. I have not done anything differently or added any apps that would drain the battery. I'm going to give it a few more discharge cycles and maybe calibrate again but it's not looking good.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RichJo86:
Just got my Andida 'spare' delivered.

What's the best way to recalibrate the battery stats. I already downloaded Battery Monitor Widget.

Just fully charge -> reset -> let it run down to xx% ?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tdvc1986:
need to try this one
[T-Mobile LG G2x] em5xx:
bit.ly/jD7uhK

I think you can get it here at a lower price
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rafarataneneces:
Wow that's a low price

Scam or reliable?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KiNG OMaR:
I already had an andida battery with poor performance. At only $9 I figure it won't hurt too much to give it another go :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] em5xx:
looks the same as the one on ebay

anyone knows where to get original stock battery
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Vaddy23:
Might as well give it another go right? As I stated earlier I can easily go a full day with moderate use on this battery.... maybe you just ended up with a dud... hope you have better luck this time
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Pxoeb6mU:
I've got two of the andida batteries. And an external charger. So I always let them run down while the other one is charging and just exchange them. Currently I use 3, the two andida ones and the original LG one. I haven't gotten them long enough to have really reliable statistics yet. Also I'm regularly flashing new CM7 nightlies and recently updated my baseband. But after going through all 3 at least 2 times now, I seem to be getting about 20-25% longer runtime out of the andida ones than the LG one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jwuerz:
Bought the $9 one... will reply with battery stats depending of course on if the site wasn't a scam. ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RichJo86:
Just done a couple charges myself but it seems I get roughly the same results. I do notice that the Andida drops rapidly in % and sometimes it loses almost nothing.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c19932:
that sounds like a "feature" of the G2x, not the battery :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ttabbal:
As I've been pm-ed about it, I will start posting updates on the testing again soon. I was in a car accident last week, and haven't felt up to dealing with it...

From the results so far, imo this is an ok replacement battery, but not an upgrade. The posts about the mugen 4500 have me almost interested enough to buy one to test.... Lol it's probably about 3000 in reality. I hate battery companies.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TechFu:
Tmobile now has them on the website for $49.99 (do a search G2x Battery if link does not work) I am not sure how long they have had it.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] dn3g3l:
for the people who are getting good results or at least equal to the stock battery, where did you purchase from?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
I got mine from the link in the original post.. Solid battery.. I've had it for at least 10 charges. I have certainly got more life out of the battery without any doubts whatsoever.

I was literally logging my hours on my phone for the first few weeks. The longest I hit from a full charge to powering off from a dead battery was 34hrs. I hit that mark at least 3-4 times. My tests with this battery, I have hit 37hrs twice with around 20% remaining.. I ended up charging it anyways. 40hrs looked achievable. Obviously, I'm a light user..

Edit: P.s. I'm sure they are all the same battery. Someone posted a link recenlty where you can get it for around $10 shipped. Not a seller than anyone was really aware of tho.. and not under ebay protection, bla bla stuff.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
I'm seeing about the same compared to stock. I should have just saved myself $30, anyone want to buy this lol.

Sent from my HTC Glacier
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dn3g3l:
i thought there might be some bad batch and good batch between different sellers since some say the battery is good and some say it's bad.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jacob808:
the Mugen 4500mah actually feels like it's a 5000mah or higher compared to my experience with stock.

I'm charging my last 12 hour cycle, number 5 tonight after having tried to kill the battery with all my might for the past 2 days, and this is my estimation of what you can expect from the battery.

With light usage- 1 week

With normal usage- 3-4 days

With heavy usage (This is what I've been doing, nonstop trying to kill the battery with all my might) 1.5-2 days.

And not only does the Mugen 4500mah release the G2x potential of being a gaming/movie/internet/multimedia cellphone, the battery cover is perfect ergonomically, and the hollow parts keep the phone cool inside, while keeping your palm away from the antenna reducing any chance of the so called "death grip".

Forget andida, and go purchase the Mugen Battery PRONTO!!!

EDIT: It's not cheap, but remember, you get what you pay for...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ttabbal:
Hmm... Wish more people would TEST the batteries. And no, you CAN'T test them in a phone. You need a constant known discharge. Mugen has been busted lying about capacity in the past. Think I might build my own. I'm sick of the games. I'm thinking I can stuff 6000 mAh worth of good cells into the extended pack back case. Need to buy one of the $10 ebay POS batteries for the back cover.. lol :p

I'll post here when I come up with something. I need to figure out what thermistor value is supposed to be in there... I won't use the Andida right now in my phone, it doesn't report temp and that can cause severe overheating of the battery, which can be dangerous (ie, burst into flames). Which is retarded. It's a $0.60 part!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
Sorry to hear man. Hope you are getting better. Take care! Regards
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ttabbal:
Much better, thanks.. Car might be totaled though... Sigh... More insurance bs to deal with. I added another discharge to the list. Still looks like about stock to me...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Hope u can post up review on it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jwuerz:
Will do...

I have the 1800mah amazon one that was posted earlier in the thread... I get maybe another hour out of it... give or take...

Not really worth the 30 bucks via amazon that I paid...

But... if the 3200 mah and the 1950 mah are any good, and in fact the company selling them aren't bogus... we may have a good deal on our hands...

Especially because both are around 10 bucks shipped...

I will keep everyone posted...

The site says that my 1900 mah has shipped... which is good news...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sclui56:
The OBOStore was not bogus when I bought the replacement battery from them on the HD2 few months ago, took about 2 weeks to get to Los Angeles. IWhen I saw this thread, I knew the seller on ebay was charging a premium because nearly all the standard form factor Andida cells are selling on the OBO site for less than $10.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ttabbal:
If you get an extended, do us a favor and pull the sticker off. Most of them use standard cells that are stamped with a part number and often the capacity. I opened a 3500 and found a pair of 1100 cells... Guess what it tested at? Lol

Lies, damned lies, and mah ratings.....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jwuerz:
Ha.

I opened a bad 2300 mah g1 extended that seems to have the same label as the obostore g2x extended. The g1 extended had 2 1150 cells. So... I guess not all are frauds. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypmatize:
I just ordered the andida battery earlier today...hope it lasts longer then the stock battery... Good thing it was only ten bucks :).... Its nice to have a dock that has a spare battery slot too :)

Sent from my G2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jwuerz:
Can you post a link to the dock?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypmatize:
Here you go

Just to let you know the dock comes with a non US power brick... you can get one of those adapters that change it to fit a US outlet... or you could use the brick that came with the G2x. I am also pretty sure you could get a replacement brick from radio shack for pretty cheap
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Razorblood:
Does the dock work with a case? Mine is a rubber one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypmatize:
Nah.... You can't have a case while using the dock... Kind of sucks :(.... But the dock is sweet none the less.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dn3g3l:
are you getting the fully charged popup notification when charging overnight?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypmatize:
I never got it before....even without the dock...not sure why...I don't know if it is a stock rom thing though...I only had the stock rom for a few days

Sent from my G2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dn3g3l:
i'm on stock rom. it doesn't show on the lock screen. but if you phone gets fully charged and still on charger, it should popup on the homescreen.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypmatize:
It doesn't do that for me on CM 7.1 RC-1... I might have done it for me on the stock rom but I haven't used it in so long that I don't remember :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dn3g3l:
guess i'll switch to cm7 soon when everything thing works.

since we're in a battery thread. you can get the stock battery at tmobile store for $25 after the 50% off accessory coupon.

I got my stock battery for $7.99 (shipping charge). Others got it for FREE. Just call customer care and tell them you're having problems (heats up, does not last for more than 4 hrs, etc.) with your stock battery. If you manage to convince the customer rep, he/she will send you a replacement battery. You don't even have to send back (they are saying that LG doesn't want these "defective" batteries back) the old battery.
