Another option is to go to a shop that deals with LG's "official" (as in that they deal directly with LG, not that they are their representatives, nor that they speak directly with the factories) importers.

This should also be cheaper, although this requires more time and effort (you will have to make sure that the battery actually is original, as well as when it was manufactured).

While I do not live in India, the idea should be similar, since the repair shop I work at, only deals with the "official" importers and distributors, that is partly how I know that my battery is an original part manufactured by LG (I had also verified this myself, before inserting the battery in my phone).

received DaDaXiong battery some days ago.. manufactured 2013 and works as bad as to be expected for a 5 year old battery.. :(

and GLK-Technology from amazon wasn't better..

I used AccuBattery to estimate capacity, did a full wipe with every battery change, only did full charge cycles and used every battery for at least 5 days.

GLK and DaDaXiong had both around 1450 mAh, Patona around 1500 mAh and the old original one still 1600 mAh..

I think it's hopeless to find a new battery with something around 2500 mAh. Less than 2-3h SOT with this old cells are way to poor to make this phone usable.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] moriel5:
It's not hopeless, however it may be a better idea to modify an existing battery (this must not attempy this until sufficient knowledge in how batteries work (which also means learning elctro-mechanics) has been accumulated).

I personally think that a good way is to approach local repair labs that work with the official importers in the country.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] KitsuneFoxy:
The ones sold by replacebase on Ebay, arent original as far as i know. I have ordered many over two years and they are always different sizes, thickness, or whatever. The LG service center in europe says about £50 GBP for a new battery, However, like someone has said, these cells are pretty old, and honeslt LG really did **** up with the nexus 4, giving it such a sub par battery capacity. However there is a person on XDA who does modify nexus 4's to have two batteries, with a 3d printed back, all soldered up for about £45. His name on XDA Is tommmtom.

I am thinking of going to have it done if i decide to keep this phone. The battery is just too awful now. https://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/general/4200mah-nexus-4-internal-battery-t2239829
[Nexus 4 Accessories] moriel5:
Yeah, I had read about that.

However I can confirm that LG, at least as of a year and a half ago, was still manufacturing these batteries (they are still old, just not as ancient as things may seem.

I personally prefer (at this stage), to insert some silver into my phone (I just need to find someone that can supply it to me), per this thread: https://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/general/hardmod-nexus-4-investigating-thermal-t2144652

And also to undervolt and underclock it, as well as to use a custom kernel, such as SINAI-N4 (which is getting the battery leak fix soon), to get similar (if slightly inferior) results.

In the future, when I'll be able to afford it (also time-wise), I'll try jerryrigging two batteries together.

If only there was a rechargeable lithium-metal battery available for the Nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] eadzon64:
i've done that mod by myself with a copper plate and have to say,

that this toghether with undervolting -75 and great Sinai Kernel

gave my phone a hole new experience!

Thermal throttling in most case is completely gone

SD 865 to come

very recommended

bought a DangX 3000m ha, ha Battery myself, performing very badly
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Kazliux:
this is the shop that sells OEM batteries, but I think it ships only within EU

http://www.spareslg.com/gb/

I have ordered one and it is 100 % original one
[Nexus 4 Accessories] KitsuneFoxy:
I didnt use a metal shim for the cpu gap. I used a 1mm or 1.5mm thermal memory pad. Works the same.

My phone only ever gets "really" hot if it has to do marshmellows indexing after a dalvik wipe.

---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:33 PM ----------

That one is for europe. However, I have spoken to LG and they have a UK based spares store that sells batteries too.

---------- Post added at 04:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 PM ----------

What is an SD 865?

And i would have thought undervolting by .75mv would cause issues on higher frequencies.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Kazliux:
Made some testing, the battery seems original. With Android 7.1.2 Pixel Dust Rom, I have got 3h SOT.

Battery was labeled 2017year:good:
[Nexus 4 Accessories] eadzon64:
SD 865 means Snapdragon 865, Qualcomms highend mobile chipset for 2020*

for me undervolting at -75mv has never been a problem

With that setting for example, i played trough San Andreas over hdmi with high setting, and without a single quirk
[Nexus 4 Accessories] moriel5:
That's also great, however it is nowhere near as efficient as silver (a sheet of diamonds would be best, however that is not realistic for most people).

Just installed this HSABAT battery. it says 4500mAh. Now I'm monitoring real capacity using AccuBattery. Will post report here in couple of days.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] finchi:
I've tested this HSABAT battery. And it's another piece of junk. After disconnecting charger it drops immediately from 100% to 90%. And it keeps discharging quickly. AccuBattery reports estimated capacity as only 1464mAh. Cannot recommend this.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] finchi:
Just ordered one from https://www.spareslg.com/ for 42 Eur. Hopefully this one would be legit as this would be my third attempt. :(
[Nexus 4 Accessories] finchi:
Apparently I don't have luck with buying battery. After paying 41,43 Eur (8,61 EUR was shipping). spareslg.com is asking for more money:

Are they crazy 14 Eur for shipping inside of EU for small battery? Not very serious company.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Kazliux:
Same case for me, but the battery is 100% original.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Prasad Deshpande:
Any pointers for replacing the battery in Pune/Mumbai(India)?

Any pointers for a shop.in Pune or Mumbai (India) where I can get the battery replaced? I don't have enough confidence to do it myself. It's still running with original battery which came with the phone however I am noticing a slight swelling on the back of the phone. Also it drains pretty quickly.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] nitin.chobhe:
You can visit any LG service center and they will do it for you. I did that in Chichwad some 2 years ago.

But unfortunately as the device is quite old they have batteries manufactured in 2015-2016. So they also lasts same as the old battery (at least in my case that happened). But as you say the battery is swelling, you'll have to change it before it cracks the back glass.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] d_g_m_2000:
hello, i don't know if this could help you but i just buy a new battery from this retailer ( https://www.compuxonik.com/celulare...lg-nexus-4-e960-optimusg-e970-e973-bl-t5.html )

to change from one generic to another, but it feels and behaves like a original... you can see attached photos i took of the "new onw" and the "old one".. but my guess is both are generic not original.

you can see diferences between them but most important is that the old one start to behave weird..

like it reach 100% charging and drop to 90% like in 20 seconds... also it always display 100% on android but like 80-90% in twrp

hope it can help you in your search for a new battery :good:
[Nexus 4 Accessories] sebr:
Unfortunately it looks like spareslg also now stopped to sell the genuine battery. Any other reliable source for a replacement battery in decent quality known?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Dv2y:
1464mAh looks like more than most other fake battery offers. Maybe it's the best one we have...?

[Nexus 4 Accessories] KitsuneFoxy:
Wow that is.. dangerous to say the least. I wish it was possible to find a battery manufacturer who would make them with new cells. I have however seen s duracell official product version of the Nexus 4 battery. But i cant tell. I was probably the ladt person to get one off spares lg, since the rep said it was the last one x3.

As for sending batteries. Its not allowed on an aircraft due to the risk of explosion, so an actual courier service who will take it must be used.

Didn't know india had an official service centre. Woukd buy one if can confirm it is legit.

Heres is a defacto video for measuring, weight and size of nexus 4 battery https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pm5GHSmuNOg
[Nexus 4 Accessories] TNSMANI:
Check the LG website. It lists the various official service centers. You can check over phone whether it is in stock. I checked over here in Chennai and it is available but its age is not known.

But how do you propose to move it to UK since LG India will not ship overseas? Or for that matter, they won't ship anywhere. Can only be replaced (not even bought) physically at the service center.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] nehc_rm:
I have bought few generic batteries for my Nexus 4 on ebay, one from China and one from Germany. I have calibrated both battery, empty and charging with the phone is off.

The one from China is absolutely bad. My Nexus 4 will always display the wrong value for my battery or will jump from 100% to 75% in a second. For example it will shut off when I have for example 15% charge.

The one from Germany was much better. It is rated at a higher mAh but I wasn't interested in having a bigger battery. At 1st calibration, the battery performed as expected. The phone displayed exactly what the battery holds and there were no jumping values.

I hope this help. People looking for a battery replacement, don't buy the one from China. Several sellers offer the same type of battery.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-OEM-LG...0-Optimus-G-E970-E973-F180-LS970/113717874268

Update 11/27/2019

I have decided to peel off the sticker from the battery, the Chinese one. I was very surprised and angry at the same time. Under the sticker, the battery is for a different phone with much lower mAh: 1250 mAh Part# LGIP-401N for LG Rumor Touch. No wonder I was unable to calibrate the battery. Do not buy anything that is similar to this Chinese fake battery!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] nehc_rm:
I think you've bought a fake battery. Look at my post, https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=80988679&postcount=127. When you have battery not designed for your phone, your phone will never display the proper charge value. Even after you try to calibrate the battery. Your battery looks like mine. If you peel off the sticker, you will find a battery for different phone, which has a much lower mAh too. I ended up buying a battery from a German seller. I did a battery calibration without any problem. The phone will display the proper charge from 100% to 0%. It wasn't the case with the fake battery.

https://www.ebay.com/usr/wannsee-electronic
[Nexus 4 Accessories] nehc_rm:
Good replacement battery

I have recommended a German seller on my previous post. I have bought 2 from them and It's a pretty good. You will be able to calibrate without issue.

I'm also using that one! Much better than any other generic battery. They seems to be a honest company.

Been using AccuBattery since I put those in and these are the best numbers I have seen in years. I can't post images yet, but it's showing 91% health and 1905mAh after 67 sessions for 66460mAh of total charges until now:

Not cheap, special order, possibly available.

I've had mine since new in Spring 2013 running a recently flashed 7.1.2 and all i do is text/call and use the spotify app for music with my car via Aux (not bluetooth) and my battery will still last all day, probably because i don't really do anything heavy. But it does look like official batteries MIGHT still be available, i say might because they may not necessary be able to fulfill the special order. and even if so it might likely be a used or refurbished battery or a new one thats been sitting in a warehouse for years, if thats the case it might be worth the risk of a chinese scam finding a cheaper one lol.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxys:
EDIT: the problem is solved, see my last post

Hey guys,

I'm not new to installing roms, as I did with my SGS 2 before. But I haven't done it for a long time and it's the first time I do it on my SGS 5... with no success at all.

The problem is that, out of all the roms I've tried, none of them boot up entirely without crashes. I've followed the instructions to the letter and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Here's what I had before starting to fiddle:

SGS 5 G900F, no specific carrier, bought in Europe

stock android/touchwiz 5.0, never rooted or anything

Here are the roms I have tried:

cynaogen 5.1.1 12.1 20150508 for klte + these gapps http://teambliss.x10host.com/BlissStalk/Gapps/ --> stays blocked on the samsung logo forever

BlissPop 5.1.1 v3.3 20150515 for klte + pa_gapps-stock-5.1-20150418-signed or pa_gapps-modular-full-5.1-20150418-signed --> google newstand and another google app are crashing in a loop during the setup, I can't tap any button

PAC 5.1.1 20150503 for klte + pa_gapps-stock-5.1-20150418-signed or pa_gapps-modular-full-5.1-20150418-signed --> the install wizard application itself is crashing in a loop

THe kernels I've tried:

KT-SGS5-LP5.1-AOSP-G900-05.02.2015

boeffla-kernel-2.0-beta8-CM12.1-g900f.recovery

My recovery:

twrp-2.8.6.0-klte (flashed with Odin, it works fine, and I could boot the stock rom without problems with it)

Any idea about the cause of the problem?

Thanks

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litoven:
I'm liking the phone a lot but what bothers me the most is the dialer app. Is non responsive at times, you press a contact from any call log and it doesn't do anything until the third time you try it, now it got stuck into a recent calls log and I haven't found a way to go back, it's features are great, there are a lot of them (block list, recording...), I'm only missing it being smart as the Motorola dialer for dual sim where it automatically learned which line you preferred to call your contacts with and sim switch one you initiated a call.

Anyone having dialer issues too?

Thanks
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litoven:
With updates phone is almost perfect for me EXCEPT THE DAMN DIALER, I can't believe anyone else has this issues too. Basically you have to press 2-3 times over a contact so it will bring the sim selection screen, maybe very few people actually uses both sims? Is the last thing that bothers me with it.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litoven:
Yes, phone is on 2.19, have done it since the beginning, recently wiped all data too, still same thing, you press a contact from the call history, it makes the click sound and all but does nothing, have to touch the contact two-three times more and then the sim selection screen comes, if you dont touch it again, it just stays there doing nothing, also after the first touch, the click doesn't sound anymore, even when it actually opens. I assume that the people that only has a one sim maybe don't see this.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corrsea:
I use 2 sims and I have never faced this issue.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litoven:
Ok, found that issue worsens a lot with bluetooth active on the car, sometimes need to hit a contact 4-5 times.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Litoven:
Update, the issue was more frequently present when connected to car's Bluetooth but since 2.20.40.40 it's working as expected, sim selection screen takes 1-2 seconds to show but has come every time it has been requested. Good job.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asusarpit:
I'm facing the same issue. It's irritating, need to touch 8-10 times or even more to make a call. Has anyone know the solution to it. Model No ASUS_Z010D. Just FYI, I have already updated to latest firmware & latest dialer, but issue persists.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GreenPen001:
Hi guys, I`m new to this forum and I wouldn`t be posting this topic if I found a solution on other forums. If anyone had a problem like mine, or saw a thread before, I would appreciate if you pasted a link to the solution, or gave some kind of advice.

First of all, I`m new to rooting, custom roms, etc., so I guess that whatever I did, it was my fault. I got this Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100) as a gift, and since i already had a phone, I wanted to take a risk and take a shot at installing a lollipop rom. I watched a few tutorials, it seemed simple enough, so i thought why the hell not, but in the process something went wrong... :rolleyes:

Sooo... here is what I`ve done:

1.) Rooted my phone with VROOT

2.) Flashed custom recovery with ODIN. I`m not sure which version of CWM it was, 6.0.4.5 I think (the file is named CWM KitKar compatible-I9100). When I flashed CWM, my phone didn`t boot up. All I got was a Samsung Galaxy logo and a yellow triangle for a few seconds before my screen went black again, but I could still access both recovery mode and download mode using the combination of keys.

3.) And then I did what I think screwed up my phone. I thought maybe flashing a lollipop rom through recovery would solve the issue (maybe the recovery is incopatible with my older stock rom and it`s the reason why my phone isn`t booting). So i flashed CM12 from galaxys2root.com. It`s called CM12.1S ROM for Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 (Andorid 5.1)

Not only it didn`t solve my problem, I still can`t get my phone to boot (now I get a samsung logo and a yellow triangle, but screen doesn`t go black after a few seconds, I left it in this state till the battery ran out and still nothing). And on the top of all things, I can`t get my phone to recovery mode anymore, all I get is the yellow triangle. I can still get it into download mode, but it doesn`t connect with my PC anymore. It charges, but I can`t connect it with ODIN anymore. And the weirdest thing is, when I connect it to PC, my other USB port goes crazy and disconnect my USB Wi-Fi adapter :confused:

What went wrong? Any advice is highly anticipated. :good:

[Sony Smartwatch 3] Hexme:
Afternoon all,

I'm hoping someone can help me before I smash my watch into a million pieces ...... I've had the watch now for about 3 days and still have found no way to put apps on it. If I try and open maps or Whattsapp it opens them on the phone. I have little icons in the start menu for music, find my phone, Fit and Google keep but nothing else.

I've seen a few YouTube videos where program icons can be accessed by swiping the screen left or right but mine doesn't do that. In the instructions I got it said compatible for apps for Android Wear would automatically appear on my watch..... this hasn't happened either??

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
[Sony Smartwatch 3] wmurch3:
You are correct the apps will automatically show up on the watch if you have them on your phone. Try downloading "Wear mini launcher" for quicker way of opening apps. That's probably what you saw on the video. Android Wear 5.1.1 will have a better start menu and will probably hit the Sony watch in the next week or two.

Is your watch connected to the phone? I'm guessing it is but if you're not seeing wear apps that should be there maybe go into the Android wear app settings and click "resync apps".

Also you should be able to open apps by getting to the OK Google screen and going all the way to the bottom and click "start...".

Hope this helps!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Hexme:
Thanks for the quick reply, I can see everything now apart from a icon for Whattsapp, any ideas?
