There are 3 New OEM batteries left from this seller. m.ebay.com/itm/Huawei-HB416683ECW-for-Genuine-Original-Battery-Google-Nexus-6P-H1511-H1512-Tool/263206235325?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20150519202348%26meid%3D2df9484d32d6457a8a4e233c9ea86568%26pid%3D100408%26rk%3D7%26rkt%3D25%26sd%3D282660177211&_trksid=p2349624.c100408.m2460 Wish I would have seen this before ordering used one. But hey guess it won't hurt to have backup.

Been busy working on the NorCal fires. My eBay OEM is working great!

I hope you are right, just ordered one just in case ....

Hi Guys !

I would like to change my nexus 6p battery but I do not know what to take.

I saw that : https://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-O...779915?hash=item3ad3b2494b:g:RVMAAOSwdGFYrxiv

It's a good battery ?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] burningcreation:
It's hard to say now. You'll just have to get it and try it out and hope it's good.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] rohit25:
Well in one of the reviews it says that it didn't have the Huawei logo
[Nexus 6P Accessories] TheToto318:
Oh ! Ok so i don't know I do not know if I take it ...

What brand advise me you for nexus 6p battery ?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Rashad83:
I decided to go to Huawei service center for replacement, at least I am guaranteed an original battery, add to that it's not that expensive the only issue is they don't have battery stock yet and would have to wait until the end of November.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] radionerd:
Folks that are changing batteries, can you please weigh them, and peal the labels off?

Most, if not all the thin ribbon batteries are the same 3050mAh 45 Gram batteries. If you buy one of these please do everyone a favor and post here, and also post facts, and rate at the store.

They will keep selling fraud if buyers don't complain, and document. Amazon is still selling the Cameron Sino 3050mAh 60Gram 3450mAh, It's only 45 Gram batteries. Funny, the shipping weight is only 46 Grams. I think they use helium bubble wrap.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] TheToto318:
I found thats(only for europe) : https://www.ebay.com/itm/182820675857
[Nexus 6P Accessories] SystemBart:
Got mine on the way from:

http://www.cellephone.de/en/cell-ph...or-huawei-angler-replaced-hb416683ecw/a-5844/

Will see how returning it will go after unwraping and seeing it is 3050mAh. I hope German shops are resonable enough to refund after being informed of false advertising. Do you guys think that PayPal can help (as last resort)?

My factory one gets no early shutdowns but can't get to 2h SoT. At this point it is unusable for me. :(
[Nexus 6P Accessories] burningcreation:
Absolutely. Just open a dispute with PayPal and say the item is not as described. You will need to give them a few details as to why it's not as described. They will then review your case and give you a refund. I'm confident they will do it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Moses2402:
Hello everyone,

I just replaced my battery on my Nexus 6p, everything went well except that when I open the rear housing back I mistakenly cut with the exacto knife the cable of the Volume down key, there is any chance to fix it?

Thanks for the help
[Nexus 6P Accessories] SystemBart:
Moses2402:

Sadly I think you need to buy new part, good thing is that it costs 2-5$
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Moses2402:
Thanks for replying,

Do you know how that part called and from where I can purchase it? And if I can replace it by myself or I need a mobile engineer to fix it? Thanks!

If you broke it the first time I would just pay the labor fee at a repair shop and have them do it so it comes with a repair warranty
[Nexus 6P Accessories] SystemBart:
It arrived today, not too sure about it...

Those are the only markings I found under "original" black label. I will install it and check it with accubattery, as soon as I will get my new housing.

Sadly I have no kitchen scale to weight it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] JUSTINMARMER:
Its fake.

Also, I received an email today from the lawyers handling the lawsuit. They had me fill out a survey. Here is a link to that survey if you are interested.

Link removed for now
[Nexus 6P Accessories] radionerd:
Check if it's a few mm smaller than your OEM
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Moses2402:
Oh thanks, I can't find any guide how to replace it, anyone?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Bubba:
I assume you didn't realize that this link takes us directly to your survey Rohit ... yes .. all your personal information is on the final page. I'd remove the link.I altered it in my quote. :p How is the weather in Delhi?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] JUSTINMARMER:
I am not Rohit, I'm Justin and I'm in Arkansas. I see what youre talking about though. Not sure who's info that was. Ive removed the link to protect them anyway. Thanks for the heads up.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] combat goofwing:
Where's the link for the survey
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Bubba:
It has taken leave from the thread.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Yorae:
I'm sure this is asked all the time, but does anyone know what the "current" best go to is for a replacement battery? From what I've read so far, it's kind of back and forth and I'm not really sure which option to choose from. I'm trying to get a new one soon since my battery is sitting at an estimated 1,100 mAh and is dying at around 50%-60% these days. Hoping for something under $30.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] radaloel:
Same here, looking for a valid battery replacement, got lost with all the fakes around the forums... Anyone can give any advice?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] crucialcolin:
I have a feeling the only way to get a valid replacement is by sending it off to Huawei's repair service or an authorized service center.

I wonder about ubreakifix myself (if they use an official battery from Huawei).
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Yorae:
After reading through the thread a little I figured that my replacement had little chance of being as good as the original, I was more just wondering what the best option was currently, even if it wasn't as good.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] emrozkok:
Can you give link please?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] radionerd:
Go back a page or two, the one I bought off eBay has a picture that shows a picture with the thermal breaker magnified. I posted links and pictures of it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] SystemBart:
Yesterday I have replaced my battery. It was almost the same size, max 0,3mm difference. :)

Replacing it was easy except removing the glass, but nevermind. I have charged the phone, it went to 100%. No temp check on it tho. Phone ran a bit cooler while under load also while charging it was cooler. Great.

Went today to work and phone shut down at 60%! Plugged it, booted, 53% shut down.

Now I have old depleated battery, and new faulty one in a new housing. No words...

Lesson: don't buy from Cellephone.de, will see how they will handle this. Even if they send me a new one, it will be a nightmare to remove that 6P's visor again.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] vyrus027:
I got the "Beltron" battery for my nexus 6p. So far so good, i paid a technician for exchanging the battery. When I got the battery it was ok with size and have some hefty weight on it. It came with a seal. Right now i wiped cache and charged the phone first to 100%. So far im 20mins in this new battery and im at 98%. I used facebook, chrome, instagram and some apps in that 20mins. I also saw that my temps are 31°C. I dont know if it has temp sensor but I don't care that much about it. Ill report if it will shutdown in 30-60%. Hopefully it will not. I will also stop using the charger that came with this device. Ill use a 1A charger instead as i think that the OEM charger is putting a lot of heat and stress in the battery.

What do you guys think about this one ? I cant't buy on ebay they are not sending to my country.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 00111101:
I can confirm this battery https://m.ebay.com/itm/Huawei-HB416...=282660177211&_trksid=p2349624.c 100408.m2460 is an OEM battery. It has temperature sensor. I will update with stats from Accubattery after few cycles.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] emrozkok:
Im waiting.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] nenormal:
I got one of those yesterday, it seems to be an original one, its weight is 52 grams. I have no idea how reliable it will be, before I start using it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tietherope:
What was your quoted price?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Rashad83:
124 RM which is 29 USD. By the way battery stocks have started arriving at some HSCs.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] radionerd:
Mine was about the same build date. After over a month of use AccuBattery reports up to 102% health. No shut downs :)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] SFG:
I bought this one. http://cb.lk/null It's a little cheaper, looks the same and is estimated to arrive a week sooner. Shares the same item image but has a different description. I'll report on it after it arrives.

I just called Huawei here in Canada and they want $229.07 plus tax in order to change my battery.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Rashad83:
Wow!, something wrong here if they are changing the motherboard then yeah 229$ is understandable but for battery replacement no way. In Malaysia some Huawei service centers will claim that the issue is with the motherboard and will ask for the equivalent amount you mentioned. I suggest you reach out to another Huawei service center and ask the quotation for just replacing the battery. If that isn't possible then it's better to take the phone to a repair shop if you don't want to do the replacement yourself.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] SFG:
When I tried to make an unsuccessful out-of-warranty claim with Google, they forwarded me to huawei. The Google rep told me that "they have a special deal worked out for Google's out-of-warranty customers on the known issue". The huawei rep said that they'd be happy to help me out. Their quote was $229. I asked if I could just buy the battery and they told me no. I asked for a manager/supervisor and they also declined me the option to buy the battery. It's a dead-end with huawei.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mangusZen:
Jesus, this phone is child of a minor god.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Rashad83:
Yep regarding selling the battery that is a no no every where but for replacing it shouldn't be this expensive. For the same amount of money they are asking i can get a second hand N6p all together.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 00111101:
:D
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tietherope:
I was very specific that it was a battery change and then when told the price I told them how outrageous it was. Told them I could just buy another phone for that much. Not a care in the world from their end, the price stayed the same.

The service centre here that Huawei uses is the same that Samsung, LG and all the other big manufacturers use. When I looked it up I've never read such negative reviews and horror stories about a company in my life. So I have to look for independent places, or do it myself which will most likely be the case. I just wish it were possible to get an OEM battery instead of hoping that I pick the best of the fake batteries. I'd actually just be happy if I could be sure the battery I get is actually 3,450 mAh. My current estimated capacity is 2,543 mAh.

Glad to see (believe it or not) that someone else was quoted the same price. They weren't trying to rip me off specifically, just ripping everyone off. :rolleyes:
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mangusZen:
Just arrived mine today. It really seems an original one.

Thick ribbon, a chip at the end (temperature sensor?) , production date november 2015 , weight 52 grams

I don't plan to install it now because my phone is still performing well (it is one year of usage) but some signs

of degradations are appearing. Probably I will go for the replacement this spring, I really want to squeeze another year from this phone.

I attach some photos

cheers
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tietherope:
I'm jealous. They won't ship to Canada.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jrg67:
So I am going to have to go this route as well given Google told me to contact Huawei which I refuse to do. My estimated capacity after only 8 months of having this replacement was around 2900mah. Google is refusing to take responsibility for sending me yet another device with a faulty battery. Here is the question though, for everyone getting these "oem" batteries from ebay like the post above, how do we know that these batteries won't just crap out after 6-8 months as well? Especially not having NEW batteries but rather batteries that were manufactured 2 years ago, I'd assume even if they have never been used, they are probably starting to degrade just from age. I bought the P2XL but had to return it due to various issues (including the screen) but holy hell the battery on that phone was absolutely amazing. The 5 days I had the phone, I'd get 3-4.5 hours of screen on time by the 50% left mark every day (I was putting the phone through it's paces). I let it run down to 15% one of those days and i was at nearly 7.5 hrs screen on time. To get that on my 6P would only be achieved by a miracle. Oh how I wish Google and LG gets their act together and tighten up quality control on the 2XL.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mangusZen:
Strange thing

Nobody will know how this batteries will work.

Or if they come from dismantled phones or not.

The sad thing is apparently theres no production of these batteries anymore so we have to rely on whats left on the market.

Assuming nobody won't deal with problematic fake batteries.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Rashad83:
Sorry to hear that. I hope the lawsuit against Google regarding N6p issues is won by the complainants.

Maybe it would be one of the kicks that will straighten their act all together.

The Pixel 2/ 2 XL is really a disappointment, I was hoping that this year I would move to something better from the N6p instead I bought an IPhone 8+ granted that iOS sucks compared to Android but after using the device for more than a month now it really grows on you with its speakers and battery life and I would say it was a good choice buying it. But still I need my Android equivalent in terms of software updates which is no where to be found. I will have to wait for another year I guess.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] radionerd:
Just store it in the refrigerator, then it won't degrade much.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Spannaa:
My eBay replacement OEM battery is dated November 2015.

It's been in my phone for almost 8 months now and AccuBattery is reporting it's health as 3493.9 mAh

I guess they must've stored it correctly.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jrg67:
That's promising. I may have to pick up one that is the correct oem style. Problem is, delivery time won't be for 3-8 weeks. I might have repurchased the P2XL by then (providing manufacturing quality is tighten up significantly)!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mangusZen:
Ohh nice tip, do you mean fridge or freezer?

:D

---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:04 PM ----------

[Nexus 6P Accessories] radionerd:
I would just keep it in the fridge. There are probably smarter answers on the googles ;)

Google this: "lithium ion storage temperature"

what do you think about this
[Nexus 6P Accessories] nardow:
Hi folks. What about this one? Seems it has a temp sensor.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jrg67:
I just purchased one of the eBay batteries that has the picture saying "original" with an image of what looks like a true oem battery with the fat ribbon cable. Estimated arrival from china, 12/26/17. Ugh.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 00111101:
Here is the battery health, to OEM battery link I posted couple pages ago. I get 5-6 hrs of SOT. I'm happy camper!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] nardow:
I've contacted the seller and he confirmed it has a temp sensor.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jrg67:
The picture on the one that you linked is the same on the one I purchased. Did yours come with all those tools in the picture? this is the one I got, same picture, different seller. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Or...236421?hash=item25e0702745:g:aoUAAOSwSZFZwN1h I am thinking though that all of the ones with this picture are coming from the same place and the descriptions are very similar both in content and writing style. I just really hope it gets here WAY before the estimated 12/26.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] SFG:
Try this one. Ordered mine on Tuesday and it is supposed to arrive this month. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/302458413751
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jrg67:
Thanks for the heads up, I just bought the last one a few minutes ago. I'll probably turn around and sell which ever comes in second.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] 00111101:
Yes it did come with tools in picture, mine was delivered way before estimated arrival, it was well worth the wait.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] nardow:
Got this one today as more units became available. Thanks for sharing.

Unfortunately I should only get it at the end of December since brazilian post office is absolutely fu****.

If anyone want's it, here's a link to the item on eBay. Hurry up, it's the last piece.

EDIT: More units available.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jcable2:
Here is the one I just bought https://goo.gl/jmYfn9 new, OEM and works amazing.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] SFG:
What's your expected delivery date?

---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 PM ----------

I bought a battery from a seller with the same listing. Does the tracking # ever update or is it a waste to try and expect it to give any useful info?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mangusZen:
My tracker, from belgium post, worked somewhat
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jrg67:
Expected delivery date for the second I just bought is 11/29. We will see! As for the tracking on the other, I haven't looked at it yet but it seems like it'll be pretty useless.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tietherope:
So many sellers now using the exact same picture. Also 95% of some users total posts are linking to one Ebay battery listing. Makes me think most of them aren't legit.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jcable2:
I can confirm the link I posted is a real OEM battery. Has the fat cable and a working temperature sensor. It looked brand new, could tell it had never been in a phone. The one I got had been manufactured December 2015 and everything on the label matches my old battery perfectly.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tietherope:
Hopefully they get more in stock. The other main one posted won't ship here.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] nardow:
Track it with track24.net.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jcable2:
One instock right now.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jrg67:
I'm curious about this place.. https://www.diymobilerepair.com/huawei-nexus-6p-battery-replacement looks like the OEM battery but without the badging. It does have the fat cable too. My main concern is with the battery that I got (both of them from 2 different ebay sellers) is that if the original OEM batteries were junk after a year or less, what would make these batteries that were manufactured in late 2015 not the same junk even though they are technically "OEM"? I wonder if the one listed in the link above are actually manufactured by a different company but are using the OEM specs to be a true "aftermarket replacement". If that is the case, they may offer better performance and longevity. Not that I will be keeping my 6P as my daily driver for much longer but I don't really want to go through the BS of taking this thing apart more than once.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tietherope:
Thank you. Got it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jcable2:
If you have not yet, I highly recommend buying a back camera glass. You will most likely brake the old one removing it. Honestly it is the only hard part of the replacement.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Keithn:
The board and cable don't look the same to me. I ended up finding an oem one on ebay for around $15, seems okay so far.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Keithn:
Here are some pictures of the board and cable. Wouldn't let me add with an edit.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] shermdog:
Just got this TMIOLOC battery in today. The seller was on AliExpress, but a) they are currently sold out, and b) I don't have enough posts to allow links :)

Weighs in at 52.3 grams, thick cable, and looks damn near OEM.

I peeked under the black label before taking a photo of it. Underneath is the original label.

Have not yet installed, but looks promising.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] nardow:
Hey, report back here after you install it :)

Looks like an OEM battery without HUAWEI's logo.

I was going to buy one from this seller as well. Here's the link if anyone wants it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] mms1361:
Just came in here because im also looking for a battery.

I ordered a battery from ebay seller Sunflower12314,

The listing that has an oem battery with "original" painted over the pic. I asked if the battery came with a fat ribbon and or temperature sensor but ended up buying it anyway. The next day the seller cancelled my order and told me that it did not have a temperature sensor. He did not reply as to wether it had a fat ribbon or not.

There is also a couple listings from ireland depicting an oem battery with the fat cable. I messaged one of them, ebay seller mega-source.

He informed me that his batteries have the thin cable, despite the listing showing the fat cable oem battery .

I started looking outside of ebay. Saw a few websites showing the same fat cable oem battery. Sent some emails. Website fixez.com responded telling me that their battery inventory is also of the thin cable type despite having a fat ribbon pictured on their website. If you take a look at the DIYmobilerepair.com and fixez website youll notice both batteries have the same SKU. This leads me to believe that theyre both coming out of the same place. Meaning the DIYmobilerepair batteries are also likely of the thin ribbon variety.

I would purchase the thin ones but i live in the desert and dont want a battery without a temperature sensor. I dont want my phone exploding in the summer.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Bubba:
So after a few months of dealing with faster than normal battery discharge, mine did the 35% shut down last night. I decided to have my battery replaced by a local branch of CPR Phone Repair. Ordered today should be in in a few days. Suppose to be an OEM battery and carry a 6 month warranty with them. $60 . I feel good knowing there is a warranty to fall back on and if it gives my 6P another year of life it's completely worth it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jrg67:
I ordered a battery from the same seller and asked after the thing already shipped. The response was "Dear friends, you can rest assured that our battery is genuine and sells well. It's the same thing as the picture." Per the tracking.. ordered 11/5 and still appears to be sitting in China. The other one I ordered the next day from another seller using the same picture is currently at the USPS hub in Stamford, CT. I am thinking it should be here in a few days. I never asked that seller as someone on here already confirmed that he ordered from there and he received a true OEM battery. We'll see.
