I performed deep discharges during first weeks of using this battery. It never showed more than 3300, even after hardware recalibration. Now my phone dies within 3 minutes at 1% which means no additional kernel modifications are needed (I am on stock kernel). This behavior may depend on many factors: temperatures (battery misbehaves outside 0-40 degrees C), loads (high load depletes battery faster), power leaks etc. In general, I am quite satisfied with current battery behavior: it's really hard to deplete it during a day, even with gaming, mobile data and bluetooth (for pebble watch).
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] ngocgiap94:
Sad fact, your battery capacity is not 3600 mah, (i think 3100) when compare s7 edge battery and no need kernel. Maybe, you should choose s7 battery 3000 mah :D
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] mdcool:
You are wrong, I have legit S7e battery. It's just AccuBattery who is not accurate. Same was with 2 stock S6 batteries, none of them reached even 2400 mAh with my usage scenarios (new one was ±2300, old one was 1900).
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Hutascz:
So..

finally original samsung sdi battery!!! :)

On first charge I got 3400 mah and that maximum capacity!! Finally got real one!! :D
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Hutascz:
I'm now watching S8/S8+ teardown and it seems like they have same connectors... hmmm

It might fit too :p
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] gmajnkek:
So where did you got it from?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Hutascz:

I got It here from this Czech eshop:

It's 100% original Samsung SDI
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] dbavaria:
Thickness might be OK if you could mod a rear panel to fit. Rumor has it some of the cheap knockoff rear panels on eBay appear to be made of plastic or acrylic rather than glass. I'm wondering if it would be possible to use a heat gun or oven to heat up the panel and force a raised area to fit the battery...it's a long shot, but sounds like something fun to try. There is also an aluminum back on Amazon, perhaps one could use a hydrollic press to raise a section to allow for a thicker battery.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Lucoso46:
YES! Finally we can improve (maybe) Battery life without buy an S7.

Hope the thickness is ok for the rear cover
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] ikkeeuu:
Maybe just thicker adhesive can do the job ��.

Really looking forward with this mod! Thanks rafyvitto for the experiment. Keep us updated ��

Edit: now that i think about it, maybe we can put an s7 edge battery in the s6? Would be awesome! :D
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] rafyvitto:
I have in infinite amount of mid frames at my disposal , so i will definitely be able to make this happen, no worries guys.

---------- Post added at 02:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 PM ----------

I can tell you right now it wont work, i already saw the ifix it s7 edge disassembly and the battery seems to be the same size as in the s6 edge plus, and its just to tall for the s6 mid frame, but il take an s7 edge apart to comfirm.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Lucoso46:
So tomorrow you can explain your battery usage or you have to put the s7 battery?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] rafyvitto:
On monday il put it on my s6 yes.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Lucoso46:
Yeah.

I can't wait to see the results.

But how did you get an S7 battery? If i can ask..
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] ivanthec:
Holy **** rafyvitto that is amazing. Does Samsung sell the batteries? How easy is it to install?

TBH I wouldn't mind using it in a case without the backcover if I could get that 3000 mAh battery
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Lucoso46:

Me too, i want to see the results
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] super_f:
I'm looking forward too for this!!!
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Lucoso46:
Me too, but I didn't see any advice on Internet for the s7 battery, I will search better today
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] matthiasbolda:
Also very interested... But how to install without destroying the phone?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] n00bpwner:
i get pretty good battery life on my s6. ive had it pretty much since launch too.

Where could I get original Samsung S7 battery in France ?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] gmajnkek:
Do thay ship also out of Czech?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Hutascz:
Sadly no.. :(

But you can spot real one by looking at the front.

They sometimes have this green sticker:

If the battery has the sticker it's real. This was the first one with sticker I got (5th one :D )

And real one has written cell made in China, assembled in Vietnam!!
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Hutascz:
How to spot FAKE:

Real has writing cell made in China,assembled in Vietnam. And has writing on the back that it's Samsung SDI

FAKE has only made in China and no writing on the back( only some code)
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] mdcool:
Not necessarily. Mine is made in China, but it has green label. Also, this post on Samsung's blog has similar "made in China" battery listed, I don't think they would post fake pictures. Maybe, they ship different batteries for different countries.

For me I would say that main things to spot a fake are:

- thickness (s7e battery is way thicker than s6)

- proper tapes (black tape around the battery, thick transparent tape cover with green piece of tape as part of stock package)

- proper printings (stock label in front, additional manufacture date printing in front, additional SDI printing on the back side)

See attached photos of real fake battery side-by-side with my old stock battery (3 pics) and my current S7e battery compared to that fake (4 pics).
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Illutorium:
Hmm... I will to be use with a "Samsung Logo" at "Cable stick" and I don't think that's will be a fake anyway... -> ifixit.com/Teardown/Samsung+Galaxy+S7+Edge+Teardown/56845

Did anyone find any original battery on eBay? I wanna try this mod.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Hutascz:
This looks to be original...

http://m.ebay.com/itm/282541724007

My thoughts after 2 days of using original S7 edge battery:

Kernel just can't show the real percentage. I'm over 1h on 1% ( cca 400 mAh) and same issue with charging. When the battery is over 3190mAh kernel can't do it. Also the back cover cannot be closed at 100%. I hope it won't blow up because it's really really tight. Phone is around 15g plus but no big deal.I also removed charging/nfc pad because it won't fit with it. I'd say if you don't need it don't do this mod. But with cup tuner and doze you can get to 8 H SOT!!!!!( maybe more)That's insane!! When your phone don't blow up and you don't get fake battery ist just unbelievable battery life

[Galaxy S6 Accessories] sunyakram:
Facing random reboots after changing battery to s7e, mostly at incoming calls.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] mdcool:
1 ) did you change kernel? some kernels are undervolted/overclocked, this causes problems on some devices. Try to adjust values or flash stock kernel.

2) are you sure it's original battery? Seems like it cannot provide enough power. Please try it in other heavy scenarios like recording 4k video, heavy gaming or opening dozens of pages in Chrome and switching between them randomly. If issue will stay, then it's either battery or some problems with motherboard, I'd start with checking the battery.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] sunyakram:
I've installed 2 kernel, same problem on both,

Without sim everything is working fine, it only crashes on incoming calls, I've disabled vibration but still same reboot or stuck and then reboot problem .

i know it's not original, but i am satisfied with it. It's giving me same or more juice as original in lowest price.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Cock-Punisher:
So the question that everyone interessts is.

Do i have to flash a costum kernel to use the full potential of the galaxy s7e battery in my s6?

Ho to calibrate?

Can someone with an s7e Battery and some experience clarify those questions?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] mdcool:
You don't need to flash anything. Phone will recalibrate battery within first week. I personally stayed on stock ROM and kernel and was achieving 4+h SOT from morning till night with heavy usage every day (comparing to 2.5h with stock battery). The only negligible downside is that phone still writes "2550 mAh" in Settings -> About Phone, but it never uses this value for any calibrations, it's just info for customer.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Cock-Punisher:
Is it necessary to let the phone stay plug in after the battery indicator shows 100%?

AccuBattery shows an increasing prediction of the capacity, when i leave it plugged in. ?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] mdcool:
Just use your phone as you used it before. Software is smart enough to detect decreased (over time) or increased (with changed battery) capacity. There's no need to overcharge it or discharge it completely, software will detect changes sooner or later.

AccuBattery shows only approximate data based on some heuristics. For me it always showed 10% less capacity than actual (3 different batteries on S6, 1 new battery on new OP5).
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Jim1973:
I tried several aftermarket S7e batteries. See here:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/help/s7e-battery-s6-t3687676
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Jim1973:
If you flash a custom kernel like kiboi it will show the capacity correctly on accubattery ie 3600 ish mah. If you don't accubattery will show full capacity as 2550 but it will still have the capacity but just not show it on accubattery. I have tried different kernels and the only one I found that showed the correct capacity is kiboi devine but as stated it doesn't really matter as you still have the increased capacity from what I can tell. I always full discharged and fully charged and found it would take the full charge.

If you're not sure just flash kiboi as I've found it excellent.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Cock-Punisher:
Thank you for the advice.

Atm stock kernel is rly perfect ... i have more then 4h display on time. So for now I'm pretty happy.

But maybe i near future :)
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Jim1973:
I have tried numerous makes of S7e battery as detailed on the link I posted above. There are all slightly different dimensions. The best one I found was by a German company VHBW as the cover fits perfectly if you remove NFC and wireless charging and only protrudes very slightly if you keep NFC. I found some makes were 1mm thicker than others with Patona being the thickest at 5.1mm which is way too thick for the back to fit.

1) I didn't want to remove antennas, I use them sometimes

[Galaxy S6 Accessories] vio_S:
did someone order a battery from moobooo after all? i found a shop on ebay (which i cant post because i'm a new user >.< )

9euro seems too cheap to be original....

there is an offer also on kaputt.de, battery and toolset for repairs for around 30euro

this one delivers all the tools at the same time, which is great for me....

did anyone order there already?

thanks^^
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Cock-Punisher:
Just order one from an ebay seller with many recent sold batteries. I ordert one for 9€ and I have awesome battery life. I can guarantee that it's an original but it seems to be one.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] vio_S:
i got the set of kaputt.de. the tools were cheap quality (which was to be expected...) but i was quit disappointed by the suction cap, it was way to small and weak. had to use another one.

the battery was a bit narrower than the old one and nearly the same thickness... so not sure if it has the full mah. well but anything is better then before.... the phone got dropped in the toilet and lasted only 1-2 hours. so i'm looking forward not to have to charge that stupid thing all the time :D

the battery is at 10%, should i let it go flat and then charge or charge it fully first?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] VedranB:
Hi folks, since the first time I read about the opportunity to swap S7 Edge battery into the S6, I was tempted by it.

The bulge some reported is pretty big. Turns out my S7 Edge battery is much thicker than the original one, obviously one good sign that it is genuine.

But even with some thin double-side sticky tape there is unpleasant bulge, and it also affects the case, since bulge adds to the total thickness of the device, the case is misaligned with edge of the phone. If only the battery is on the centre of the phone!

I was monitoring mAh in Accubattery, after two full cycles it already shows 3000mAh+. I believe it will only get better.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] KingKRiggz:
Can someone post a link to a S7 Edge battery that's the least thick? I don't want to worry about it bulging or not having enough space. I plan on removing the NFC/Wireless Charging & either hot silicone or the double sided tape. I can't find a legit Samsung brand or a aftermarket battery that has good reviews in North America or is small enough to not bulge against the phone back door. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Jim1973:
VHBW make a battery that is 4.2mm thick so slightly thicker than the standard s6 one but the back will perfectly if you remove Nfc and wireless pad. The best battery for actual capacity I have found to be patona at 5.2mm thick. There is a slight bulge but hardly noticeable with the nfc and wireless removed. The VHBW battery was sold showing 3500 mah on accubattery but the Patona one is incredible and shows 4400 mah! This could explain how I've managed to get over 2 days and 6.5 SOT out of it.

Both VHBW and Patona are European companies (German I think) so not sure on availability on the States though.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] KingKRiggz:
Yeah I can't order those in the U.S.

Anyways I took my phone to Campus Mobile Solutions in Champaign IL & told the guy what I wanted. He said he tried 2 different S7 Edge battery's but they didn't work, said they showed 80% while charging but they didn't actually turn the phone itself on. Instead he used a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus battery which is only 3,000mah but it's brand new and the exact same thickness , so I'm a little dissatisfied. Any ideas why my phone wouldn't work with the S7 Edge battery's? I really wanted that 1,050mah extra but my battery was installed in 2015 so it needed replaced anyways. Haven't noticed any difference yet I haven't cycled or calibrated the battery as I just got the phone back. Frustrated I couldn't get the S7 Edge battery to work :(
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] KingKRiggz:
Also I paid $81 for that because I thought it would work when I could've had it done for $60 or less somewhere else for a S6 E + battery. Another question how do you get the new battery capacity to show up in the actual phones information in the settings. I reset the fuel gauge, charged from 0-100 & have Accubattery installed already to monitor everything.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Jim1973:
You need a kernel to recognises it. I used kiboi kernel and works fine. I calibrated battery at 100 percent using battery calibration app, then discharged to 0 and charged back to 100 a couple of times and accubattery was showing over 4000mah and battery life was amazing. The first time i discharged from 100 to 0 I got over 2 days.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] KingKRiggz:
When charging back up from 0 do you leave the phone off or turn it on to charge? What's the best kernel to use for a good balance between battery life & functionality but will also recognise a new/different battery? I don't know anything about kernels so if you have the name of a good one & a link to download it that would be awesome. Kind of mad at myself now cause I didn't do enough research, I thought I could have the S7 Edge battery on a stock kernel.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Jim1973:
Some say turn the phone off but I charged it when on and was fine. I don't think accubattery will measure charge going in if turned off. Search for kiboi devine kernel and you will find it. This is the only kernel I know that definitely supports the S7e battery. I think 2.7.1 is the one I am using. If you really can't find it I can email it to you but it is dead easy to find.

I found this hosting site in seconds:

https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=167411
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] KingKRiggz:
What about Galaxy S6 Edge Plus battery? I'm trying to get my phone to recognize the battery but it won't. It only charges to stock amount (2,050mah)
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Jim1973:
I have no idea about s6e+ but in my opinion the key issue is using a kernel that recognises the increased capacity. Why are you reluctant to try what has worked for me and everyone else?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] KingKRiggz:
Sorry if I'm being confusing. The guy that worked on my phone installed the s6e+ in my phone because the S7 E didn't work and I don't have the money to have them try again. That's why I was asking if the kernel you showed me will recognize that battery or not or one that does.
