Your link points to the 2x package...if you look up the batt itself and read the reviews, most will tell you it's basically a cheaper oem replacement

http://www.amazon.com/Anker-1800mAh..._1_5?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1317360583&sr=1-5

Still a great deal at 11 bucks shipped.... by itself...and assuming it lasts...my original batt that came with my phone died couple of weeks ago... (less than 2hrs on a froyo rom...) had another oem that I'm using now..so far so good, but who knows...this seems like a great buy, but doesn't sounds like it's any kind of gain even with the 1800mAh rating...
[Vibrant Accessories] }{Alienz}{:
Samsung Galaxy SII Touch batteries work in our phones. Tested.

They are 1800mah and can be found for $23 shipped. They are GENUINE Samsung as well so...it WILL be the advertised 1800mah. Just saying.
[Vibrant Accessories] adityamunshi:
Even cheaper on ebay : http://www.ebay.com/itm/330601629006?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

Sofiz has the Pisen battery for SGS II 1659 mAh, will this work on the Vibrant?
[Vibrant Accessories] tooeasyforkevin:
just ordered one too, hopefully it works out
[Vibrant Accessories] adityamunshi:
Some reviewers saying battery only charges with wall charger and phone shows unsupported battery message. Those who have the battery please confirm.
[Vibrant Accessories] }{Alienz}{:
I think I went over that at least 3 times already. Battery is a perfect fit. Charging is perfect (USB computer and Wall plug in). EVERYTHING WORKS with it. I wish people would read the topic more. It's only 2 pages. . .
[Vibrant Accessories] kaintfm:
Only reason it wouldn't charge in your phone is if you owned a Fascinate, in which case, get out of our forums, punk!
[Vibrant Accessories] tooeasyforkevin:
Ordered one from ebay and pretty happy with it so far. Only had it a couple days so far though and still messing around with different roms and kernels so hard to say exactly how long of a charge i get with it.
[Vibrant Accessories] megatherian:
Got mine today, charging now. Thanks!
[Vibrant Accessories] TerribleLuck:
Just recieved mine from amazon, and so far its been great !
[Vibrant Accessories] amblingaardvark:
I bought the two off of ebay that come with the wall charger. I'm getting much improved battery life right now. I'm very happy with them. Even though they do make the phone slightly heavier, it's worth it IMHO.
[Vibrant Accessories] eservant:
I got the two and a charger from amazon and I am happy with the results. In 8 hrs standby time(overnight) with wifi off and data and gps on the battery drains roughly 12%.
[Vibrant Accessories] adityamunshi:
I got mine from ebay some weeks ago, working well but i noticed a strange thing.

It works longer if i charge to less than 100%, say 90%. If i do a full charge, the battery discharges much more quickly
[Vibrant Accessories] Shiv4m:
Just bought mine based on the reviews it got on Amazon and on XDA, hope it goes well for me!
[Vibrant Accessories] eservant:
Just to follow up. After following the directions ( Charging completely then discharging completely 4 times for each battery.) This is my typical usage with moderate use and streaming videos for at least 1.5-2 hrs a day.

Running cm7 stock kernel.
[Vibrant Accessories] Shiv4m:
I'm assuming your running on Gingerbread?
[Vibrant Accessories] eservant:
I am sorry for not including that info but I have updated my post. And yes it's cm7.
[Vibrant Accessories] MadJoe:
Those reviews are probably from Fascinate owners. The Fascinate will not charge "unsupported" batteries, but all other original Galaxy S phones work fine with pretty much any battery for any other Galaxy S.

Sent from my rough sketch of a Vibrant on a brick.
[Vibrant Accessories] Shiv4m:
Confirming what people say about this battery, it's truly amazing because it actually works pretty darn well! I couldn't last a full day with my old 1500 battery and now with this 1800 battery, I get 1 full day to a half day depending on the use!

Running on the power hungry CM7 Gingerbread ROM:
[Vibrant Accessories] Shiv4m:
Do you guys use the travel charger or use the charger that comes with the phone?
[Vibrant Accessories] gregc2009:
Just wanted to put up another positive review of this deal. I got the two batteries and charger. Charged both up with the charger and put one each into mine and my wife's phones. Battery life has been great.

Thanks for the tip!!
[Vibrant Accessories] illego:
Another positive review here.

Bought 2 off the ebay link with the charger. Only used one battery so far and gave the second away. After 10 days and 3 full cycle of full charge/discharge, my battery life has improved greatly. I used to be at about 30% by the time I get home from work running MIUI with medium usage (whatever that means). For the last few days, I was in the 60% range when I get home. Granted my old battery is more than a year old and it doesn't perform like it did when it was new, this is definitely a huge improvement.
[Vibrant Accessories] kepha:
Two questions: 1) Not that I don't trust anyone but, I wondered if anyone else has tried this. 2) Where did you find the batteries???
[Vibrant Accessories] soberarmy:
I purchased the Anker batteries for our vibrants and they are killer my wife get a full day of use out of her phone. She use to complain all the time and she is content for now untill i get her the S3.
[Vibrant Accessories] zsouthboy:
Picked up the 1800 Anker for a hand-me-down original Vibrant running CM10 skang.

Replaced the original, 2 year old battery and am getting almost double the runtime of before. Absolutely fantastic for the ~$15.

I did wipe battery stats in recovery before booting with the new battery and draining it completely before charging.
[Vibrant Accessories] skinzy98:
Amazing battery
[Vibrant Accessories] qkster:
I bought the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II (1800 mah) on ebay for less than $4.00.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/380445646983?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

It fits well. Runs just fine. It seems to last longer than stock.

If you're looking for a replace or a spare, imo, it's worth the money.
[Vibrant Accessories] ToStymiedBoar:
How's this holding out for you?
[Vibrant Accessories] Nierika:
I might have to give this battery a try. The batter life on my vibrant has been less than spectacular lately (I've been using the same batter for 2+ years)
[Vibrant Accessories] crazexr7:
Just bought one. Only 4 bucks? And a bigger battery? Why not? :good:
[Vibrant Accessories] cannondaleV2000:
Just ordered this battery hope it works

Just bought this battery on Ebay. It was the same price as Amazon, but the shipping was free. It'll get here on Friday so we'll see how that does.
[HTC EVO 3D] DigitalPioneer:
OK, so this issue is extremely annoying, and it goes all the way back to the og evo. But on the 4G, it only did it when charging. On the 3D, it does it any time, apparently random.

The problem is that the touchscreen goes all haywire and when I touch it, it loses track of my finger. It makes it particularly hard to draw my pattern to unlock the phone, because it keeps thinking I lifted my finger and got the pattern wrong. It can also make it impossible to long touch something (because it thinks I lifted my finger too quickly) and it often doesn't realize that I touched the screen at all (especially when typing)

On the 4G, I heard it was a grounding issue when charging. But on the 3D, it does it when I'm not charging. It still helps if I place the phone flat in my palm, but that's annoying. I don't usually hold my phone like that.

So, does anyone know a way to fix this? It happens no matter what ROM I use, so I assume it's hardware, but perhaps you can help it from software?
[HTC EVO 3D] bo5ibbs:
Looking for an answer as well...bump

Sent from my evo 3d running cm7
[HTC EVO 3D] spectralblue:
You probably have faulty hardware, get it replaced.
[HTC EVO 3D] DigitalPioneer:
If my hardware is bad, so is that of many posters in the CM thread reporting the same issue. I don't think it's bad hardware.
[HTC EVO 3D] chefdave12118:
Your title says cm and sense. Are you targeting cm7? If you are..... it won't work. To many fans!

More politics in xda then Washington.
[HTC EVO 3D] DigitalPioneer:
I don't deny it. I'm using CM because sense makes me suicidal. But I had this issue back on sense too, IIRC. I'm not going back to sense to find out. :p
[HTC EVO 3D] -Apollo-:
Try Multitouch test from the Market and see what kind of results you are getting. Same crap happened to me, bad hardware. Get a replacement, problem is you will most likely get 1.50 hboot like I did. So now I am HTC unlocked.
[HTC EVO 3D] kMogs17:
This happened to me on my Supersonic. i brought it into a repair store and they said i probably bumped the touchscreen out of place, which i believe as i sometimes skateboard with my phone. They replaced my touchscreen for free. Id say its a hardware problem

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:07 PM ----------

but in addition to that cm7's multitouch on the Shooter is out of whack you cant tell using multitouch test it finds it hard to recognize more than one finger. Thats because its still in alpha stages though
[HTC EVO 3D] empiire:
People need to stop saying it's bad hardware... it's an issue for a lot of CM users that we experience only on CM/AOSP ROMs. There's a multi-touch issue with AOSP.
[HTC EVO 3D] DigitalPioneer:
Empiire, the thing is, in pretty sure it happened on both CM and sense. But no matter. Maybe I'm misremembering. In any case, I'd rather deal with it than replace and get saddled with HTC unlock.

Hi, before 4 days i update cm7 to rc1.5 after that my earpiece stop working, after reboot it's starting to work but just for a day and than stop work again, how to fix this please help me!

Please forgive me for my bad language
[Defy General] jh20:
are you not aware of the famous defy earpiece problem? read here:

https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/41152

it's just a coincident that your earpiece has failed after you flashed rc1.5. i'm sure it has nothing to do with it.

i'm sorry but it's time for you to flash back to stock rom and send your phone in for repair.
[Defy General] Charmine:
No it's not from the phone I'm sure about that because i was using cm7 rc1 and couple nightly building and with them everything worked just fine. And i never have issues with earpiece before!
[Defy General] Charmine:
I have nandroid back up, can i restore the back up or first i have to flash to original sbf which is 3.4.2-179-2 CEE
[Defy General] labsin:
you can restore it. But if you want to send it to repair center, just flash the sbf as you can't have it rooted and wipe everything in stock (Private data etc). Don't forget to do backup first...
[Defy General] Charmine:
Sorry i don't understand, what sbf to flash fixed or full ? And what you mean to back up first? to make new nandroid backup or to restore the exist one ?

Please some body to help me i just wanna back to froyo and send the phone to repair if the problem still exist, i'm not sure what sbf i have to flash full sbf or fixed ?
[Defy General] labsin:
No, with backup I mean of apps etc. Just flash the sbf that is stock on your region. I'm guessing CEE. You can restore nand, but then it is still rooted and probably a bit tweaked and if the problem then presists, you will still have to flash the sbf. Fixed sbf's are only if the official released software is lower than the one you wan't to flash like 2.3.3 defy+ rom or froyo if your country doesn't have an froyo update.
[Defy General] Charmine:
Thank you very much, you don't know how much you help me.
[Defy General] jh20:
sorry labsin, i'm still a bit of a noob in the rooting/custom rom subjects. i'm a little confused by your statement above. you were implying that flashing a full sbf would unroot the phone? i was of the understanding that you have to unroot it using superoneclick, full sbf or or otherwise?

besides if you did a nandroid backup of the original stock rom, why would it be tweaked?
[Defy General] jpchopper:
Same thing happened with my defy.

It was the speaker...maybe you'll have better luck, but it's an easy fix
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forpulse:
Hi fellow nexus-s users,

Just got a quick question.. I have the I9020A model purchased here in Canada. Never been rooted or anything like that. Its currently running 2.3.4 and when I go to Settings > About Phone > System Updates: it shows that "your system is currently up to date". My question is I've read that 2.3.5 and even 2.3.6 are "out" so should I not receive those updates here or Do I have to manually do these updates?

Thanks!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenhi:
Try to dial *#*#checkin#*#* (*#*#2432546#*#*)...that will force check for update. If there is one, it will notify you in notification bar...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ARZLEB:
thanks for the tip, getting "checkin Succeeded" and thats it... no updates
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
If your phones is not modified and you tried checking-method then there are no updates for your phone. Remember updates are rolled out in batches and not everywhere at the same time, so your timer has not come yet.

Btw, there's not necessarily an update for your i9020, as 2.3.5 was for the NxS4G and 2.3.6 for just one of the two types of the new i9020.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ARZLEB:
thank u rentaric makes sense.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoponpop:
2.3.5 if for the nexus s 4g so you won't get that one, and 2.3.6 was halted because it was causing more problems than it was fixing so you won't get/probably don't want that one. I read somewhere that they're gonna try to get a better update out by the 23rd though. you can install the update yourself if you don't get it immediately when it comes out too

Glad to see his bc as far as kernels go we have been lacking lately. Remember in evo4g after source is out net and others would b on top of it within a week and have ton of stuff added.

Spoiled back then I guess. LOL

But to ur point about BFS, I tried those so many times and the battery like effect was never worth the slight performance bump over using cfs. Just my opinion on it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Tilde88:
jeez guys... take it easy.

lol.

just a desperate plea for BFS.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
I love the theory in BFS but CFS just feels far faster (and more immediate) IMHO.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
Yuck, no we don't.

BFS has always produced terrible results on phones-- that usually result in very strange issues and battery problems. CFS all the way.
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
+100000.

Maybe we can mark the "end of an era" here on XDA, when there officially are NO more silly BFS kernels worked on by Devs or even, possibly, demanded by users. These kernels were begun to be produced originally because of users' strange fixation on the 5% of "missing" battery life they were "getting screwed out of" every time they unplugged after a full charge.

The appropriate reaction by developers over the first complaint of this years ago SHOULD have been "so what? It's 5%. That's actually a safety feature that's there to protect your battery and to make sure you don't burn down your house.... ".

Why the whole "BFS!-here's-a kernel-that-will-keep-charging-that battery-until-it-glows-or-explodes" thing ever became a thing in the first place is beyond me.

Cmon guys... Here's our chance.

Edit:

I win the idiot award for this fantastic piece of work. I'm SO leaving it up, though... lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
..... You mean SBC.

COME ON, Zook... I would hope you know the difference between the SBC (superior battery charging) kernels and the BFS (Brain F*ck scheduler).

Congrats Mo on 602!
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Haha... Sorry guys... I just woke up and saw my fatal error...

Go ahead, yuk it up..., (I would)...

Anyway, I read the OP wrong, obviously...

I was talking about an SBC kernel...

(That concept, I know I'm against, by definition.)

And I am familiar with the concepts of BFS/CFS... Honestly, though, I could never tell much of a difference between the two when using different variations of the same kernel on my EVO4G.... (I've got a CFS kernel with CM7 in there right now, I believe, that's never given me issues, though.

So, once again, sorry for the goof, sorry to the OP because my opinion was misguided..

I didn't read it correctly, and thought I knew what I was talking about.

Ps, thanks Chef, for taking up for me though, but, while I definitely know more about Android than I did a year ago, I still am learning every day, and that's because of everyone else that's here every day too.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] deadly1:
Hey Guys,

I need some help with my G2x. Everything was working absolutely fine with it. I updated, modified the phone etc everything working great. One night, I'm sitting here and I pick up my phone to use it. I notice it says invalid sim card and I have no signal. I figured either T-Mobile had a problem or maybe I just needed to hard reboot. I did that, nothing. It finds the network for t-mobile, but it can not connect. No matter what I do, INVALID SIM CARD. I restore it, INVALID SIM CARD, NVFLASH restore to factory, INVALID SIM CARD. It was working completely fine and then one night it just crapped out and it's been over a month. I can't figure out what to do. I went to a t-mobile dealer today and got a new SIM card, it says the same thing! INVALID SIM INVALID SIM INVALID SIM.

I don't really know what to do at this point, I've tried everything.

I searched all over the forum, heard suggestions from call t-mobile to restore etc but nothing is working here.

My last ditch effort is to try unlocking the phone. I'm waiting for the unlock code now, but I'm really hoping that someone with more experience might know what I'm dealing with here and hopefully lend a helping hand in terms of some advice.

It'd be greatly appreciated. I'm fairly saavy when it comes to recovering bricked phones, etc. but I've never had an APN issue where the APN is good to go and the SIM works in other phones, etc. but not mine including when a t-mobile dealer actually links a brand new sim to the phone and it still isn't working, etc. No clue what's going on but I'm hoping unlocking the phone will help. Any help would be really appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
Sorry to hear that happened. Did u try a different sim?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] deadly1:
yes no sim card is currently working on it.

I just unlocked the phone, it does not fix the problem.

It continues to say invalid sim card. :-(

---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------

In the settings menu when I go to APN's it has the t-mobile apn and everything is correct. I go to network operators and ATT, T-MOBILE US and T-MOBILE GSM come up, but when I try to connect to any one of the three it says "unable to connect to this network at this time. Please try again later" I am mystified. I've tried everything I can think of.

---------- Post added at 05:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------

Another point to make.

When I put in the sim card, even though it's NOT registering to the network and every card says INVALID SIM CARD, I received a notification telling me that I had a voicemail......... when I put my sim card into another phone and called my vm, I did indeed have a v/m.... so I don't believe the phone is shot, I believe something is just very wrong and I don't understand what it is.
