[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] grendude:
Does anyone have any direct experience (not hearsay) or a link to anyone who has actually done actual testing on any replacement batteries.

Ideally, something like what Richard Lloyd has done on youtube to test 18650 batteries.

*** As we can use the google machine, please refrain from links saying "this battery sucks" or "this is the best ever!". Reviews on amazon, ebay, aliexpress and others can be bought for pennies.

It would be great to see someone doing math and using electrical measurements, not what an app reports. ***

----------------------------------

So, two-ish years later and my unlocked HTC 10's battery is starting to go.

I'm using the latest build of Leedroid's rom and no, it is not the rom.

I have replaced batteries in the past and feel like I should give it a shot even though HTC made it a b*tch to change.

Why I'm asking: I changed the battery on a past phone and it worked pretty well for 6-ish months. Then, it exploded and cracked the lcd and g glass screen.

So, trying to avoid that.

-----------------------------------------------

Facts (as I understand them):

We cannot get a real / genuine HTC 10 battery.

HTC does not sell them.

Anything labeled as such is most likely a Chinese fraud or an actual HTC 10 battery that failed their internal inspection process.

-----------------------------------------------

Does anyone have any experience with the replacement batteries that are for sale on Aliexpress?

Part number: B2PS6100

Brands (stickers?):

Cameron Sino 3000mAh

HSABAT 4300mAh

Ciszean 3000mAh

LOSONCOER 4300mAh

XINBONG 4000mAh

Dxqioo 3000mah

etc....

What buyer did you get your best / working battery from? Details please!

Has anyone ever gotten a reading of more than 3000mah that lasts?

I've read on oneplus forums that many replacement batteries often only provide ~80% of the real battery when new and fully charged (mAh).

Many have concluded that batteries that fail their inspection process are not properly recycled and are being re-branded and sold under new names / stickers.

Comments welcome, hopefully my caveats at the beginning didn't scare off everyone.

Thanks in advance!

Mine is also 18 months old and looking for some alternatives . Hope somebody gonna help us.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Gemok:
I've done mine got it from repairbase.co.uk but haven't done any tests on it other than what an app called acubattery which estimates it's capacity as 2868. I've never fully charged it got it set to only go to 75% in the hope that it'll last longer than the original.

Ref the actual swap it wasn't that bad,

I heated the screen on a microwaved wheat bag

used some suction cup pliers to lift the screen

Cut the glue with a guitar pick

Made a simple diagram on a bit of cardboard to stick the screws in.

I took all the tape off completely stored on a bit of greaseproof paper and was really careful with the screen ribbon.

I replaced my own battery.

I replaced my own battery. I bought it off of ebay from a seller in the US. My phone used to have random boot loops now that no longer happens.

It was difficult. Heating the display and pulling off is a problem. I actually broke my display and severed my ribbon cable for the sim. I replaced those parts and battery change was successful. Now the only issue is the adhesive is not sticking that great. Nothing that affects anything. I just see how the screen slightly gives just a little bit. I do not recommend the double stick tape. Get the special glue!!! Something with a 7000 in the name.

I will be reheating a gluing it in the future. I dread working on this phone. Although I am not a professional I think I did a pretty good job. Other phones are much easier to repair.

I DID NOT notice a super improvement in battery life. My new battery was now back to "Ok" battery life instead of terrible no more bootloops at 20% or when camera is open. There is a problem with the HTC 10 with the cpu using to much, along with wakelocks and wifi. I really wish HTC would address these issues.

I installed LEEDROID have not switched kernal yet. I have getting over 4hours and 30 minutes of on screen time. If I change the kernel and throttle the cpu I may be able to get a little more. The goal is 5 hours.

I am NOT an EXPERT. I am a smart individual through trial and error that can figure many things out. I like to get the most out of my technology I'm not ready to get a new phone. My phone is primarily used for Audiobooks, Youtube, web browsing, texting.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Haldi4803:
i wanted to replace my battery... but after watching this video i've lost all my motivation ^^

[YOUTUBE]T5uLJJnEHMk[/YOUTUBE]

as soon as my battery starts to crash at low percentage i'll take another look at it ^^

Oh.... and i always tought these batteries are from the same manufacturer as the original one but somehow stolen/bought directly at the manufacturing site and sold by private persons.

It is really hard to distinguish a real battery from a fake...

But to know if your battery is full/new or not the only way is an external discharge test.

I've tought about buying one of these https://www.ebay.ch/itm/ZB2L3-Batte...560532?hash=item25e6002a94:g:ag4AAOSwmnFZ4hxs

But it says 3A ... which is a bit much for this poor phone battery.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] fullydeveloped:
Having a functioning temperature sensor is critical to the stability and safety of the battery. If you've replaced your battery, use an app like Accubattery to verify the following: an existing thermistor will read a fluctuation in temps anywhere from 20-50C based on usage and ambient heat. Most (all?) of the batteries sold online have only a resistor which will send various inaccurate readings to the phone, typically 25C while charging, and a jump to 35-38C while unplugged (if the plugging/unplugging makes no sudden difference, try putting your phone in the freezer, or going between idle and heavy use to test).

If your replacement battery has an accurate temp sensor, please add to the discussion by telling us where you purchased it.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] mortmaru:
Shame it's so much effort to change battery my wifes phone always turns off at around 21% now and she doesn't like any of the newer phones most are too big this htc 10 was the max she would go to.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] grendude:
My guess is that a lot of people are going to try in the coming 2-6 months as their battery starts to weaken.

Phone is great. Processor is fast enough and camera is great.

My hope is that we can gather real info and start to get good intel on these battery brands (?).

I don't think changing the battery is particularly easy, but it can be done. (See YouTube)

That being said, I don't want to have to do it more than once.

I hope more people chime in, because I guess many have already and many more will be doing it.

Hey [MENTION=5062049]alicine[/MENTION]. I'm really curious about the battery and want to buy it. I have some questions and would really appreciate if you could answer them.

1) Has it exploded yet?

2) Is it the advertised 4300 mAh capasity?

3) How did you make it fit inside the shell? Is it the same dimensions as the 3000 mAh ones?

4) How long does it take to charge & does it still support fast charging?

5) How many hours of SoT are you getting now? (which ROM you're in that would help too)

Thanks in advance.

Tips from experience on M7

One thing about lithion batteries . . . they lose a bit of capacity just sitting on the shelf as matter of simple, natural deterioration. So to a certain extent, the newer the better.

When I replaced the battery on my HTC One M7 it was a similar challenge. My approach to buying a battery was to look closely at the photos and see what the date was on the battery for sale as it should be printed on it. (Some of the sellers don't even know that.) I tried to get the most plausibly recently made battery, within reason. By that I mean, I was concerned that for an older phone there might not be any batteries recently manufactured for it, so a very recently dated battery might be fraudulently remarked/re-dated. If I wasn't sure I queried the seller to find out if they knew what the battery's date was.

I'm not sure my theory is correct about which date battery to shoot for, but I'm still going with that line of thinking
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] numpaque:
Hi, what about the battery performance with daily use?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] kbarb:
[MENTION=1681307]numpaque[/MENTION]

I'm not sure what the question is there - batteries lose charge as you use them, then need recharging.

What do you want to know again ?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] alicine:
1-No its not exploded yet, its working very well

2-I guess no , because im having same SoT as i get it when i first buy the phone

3-I removed the screen first,then one by one other compenents.Dimensions are the same

4-Its takin 50-60 mins to charge from %5 to full

6-Stock rom 4-4.5 hours depend on the use
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] hansing:
I sent my HTC-10 in for battery replacement through the official service in Germany. This was approx. 6 weeks before my warranty ran out.

Battery performance was really bad with SOT of around 2 hrs, and random shut downs at 20-40% battery capacity.

After 2-3 weeks it came back, and according the delivery paper the battery has been replaced.

But regrettably no improvement could be notified.

So I sent it back again and got it back within approx. 1 week. This time they had replaced the side keys on the Phone, but even this time I could not find any improvement of the battery performance.

So I claimed it a third time, and sent it to the official service again. But now my 24 months warranty was gone….However they still accepted this as a Warranty claim and when I got my phone back after approx. 2-3 weeks it had a new battery,

and

a new screen.

Since then, the battery performance is good and my phone works more or less like a new one.

I get SOT between 4-5 hrs and no more shut downs and boot loops using stock Oreo.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] AggelosGR:
got the same issues and replaced battery from official htc service.

well sot was around 3h when i first bought it.now its 4h and battery still 48%.

frined buy it from the same shop 1 week after me and he still got 4h+ sot.so i guess some devices sold with deflected battery?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Feniu:
Have you been doing something after replacement, calibration or hard reset? I was having typical problems, shutdowns and bootlops, crap battery life etc. After buying new battery and replacing it by gsm service the problems with bootlops and shutdowns are gone (it looks like), but im getting only arround 3hrs on SoT. Looking for issue for that situation, want to get a little bit more [MENTION=5062049]alicine[/MENTION] u made factory reset after replacing or something? Its hard to belive for me results like 4-5h on SoT i never havent results like this even after i bought my phone

Interesting fact is that i have 92% (which i find as a good result) after HTC battery test, but when i start using phone its going done rapidly and nothing special arent draining battery when i look in gsam...
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] hansing:
I always made a factory reset of my phone before sending it to the HTC repair service.

When getting the phone back I install everything from scratch to avoid any possible "hidden" problems with a back up.

I have not done any other calibration etc... Just using stock Oreo from T-Mobile in Germany.

hansing
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] alicine:
yes i did. But not because of i replaced the battery, I was having problem with updates.So i installed official stock rom (back to Nougat from Oreo) and after upgrade from Nougat to Oreo back.

This was the only installation. Btw which brand did you buy battery?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Feniu:
Ive bought original battery i think, with HTC logo. Im on original stock, no roots etc. I made factory reset, tried this tricks with charging to 100% after turning phone on after charging when it was turned off etc. Nothing helped, im only happy because of no random boot lops and shutdowns, but 3:30h on a SoT is absolutelly best result i can get now :f

---------- Post added at 10:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 AM ----------

i am happy with battery performance since i have replaced it may be lost 10% performance but in average its ok.

If you didnt replace it before i kindly inform you that be very carefull when you are removing screen.Just use hair drier in hot mode. for stick it back you need some kind of special sticky stripes.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] magistrateee:
Have more people done the replacement recently? Been wanting to change my battery but kept holding it off. My phone just got worse. Use to shut down or bootloop around 30-40% and now doing it around 60-70%. I have RUUed and battery calibrated.

Does anyone have any recommended seller(s) or brand(s) for the batteries? (USA if possible, aliexpress takes too long)

or can I just get any from eBay or Amazon?

I read something about reapplying adhesive because the screen doesn't always stay in place afterwards.

Is there a specific glue/adhesive type/model I should use in case I get this problem?

Thanks.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] LK255:
What kind of sticky stripe? Would you kindly share the specific type that I need? I just bought the HTC 10 and the battery is a flamboyant nightmare (around 1 hour SOT), so I need to dive right in :silly:

Any help is welcome
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Brakspear75:
I've recently replaced the battery on my HTC 10 as the old one was totally shot - forced shutdowns at 40 - 50% battery charge, bootlooping until I connected a charger etc. I have a soldering rework station which gives me temp controlled hot air, so no real difficulties softening up the adhesive and I did get the screen off without breaking it - unfortunately I got the opening tools between the screen and the digitizer so trashed the connections between the two - new screen and digitizer fitted along with the new battery. If you're thinking of doing this repair, be very careful to only put any opening tool 1mm or so in from the edge of the frame and use a suction cup on the screen to lift it. Once you can see that the screen is coming up with the digitizer attached then you can go further in to cut the remaining glue.

The new battery is a definite improvement - much longer SOT and no shutdowns so far, but when connected to a charger it comes up with a 'slow charging' notification and takes about an hour to add 10 - 15% charge. This happens with any of my chargers or cables - have I got a duff battery or is there something I can reset on the software side to fix this? It's only been up and running for a couple of days since the replacement, totally stock phone and recovery.

Hello!

I've had my 20 month old HTC 10's battery replaced by a local third party repairer. Even though I was told that it was highly risky to change it owing to the possibility to break the screen, I accepted. Cause I was having a screen time like less than an hour and it used to go bootloop constantly which made me consider to buy a new phone. Anyway, after the replacement i got really pleased of the results giving me more than 6 hours of screen time on the very first day. I've done it in Turkey with a price of 110 Turkish Liras which means like 19 usd including the battery plus assembly. Here are the first battery results of mine below.[IMG="Screen Time"]https://scontent-frt3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.15752-9/57611835_2020949741532971_7945106215271399424_n.png?_nc_cat=111&_nc_ht=scontent-frt3-1.xx&oh=7fc51e2dd3f5f8ed6461005f4f0a15b7&oe=5D6FEE32[/IMG]

[Galaxy Grand Prime Android Development] tasnim_tamim:
Tested it on G530H XCU (fortunave3g). And this ROM is probably one of the best Oreo ROMs I've ever tried. Seriously.. this rom is a monster when it comes to performance. Free RAM is 550+ mb. I don't know if its because I didn't installed gapps or anything. But its still super impressive to see 550mb+ ram even without gapps. Even AEX N doesn't has this great ram.

ROM is silky smooth. In my 20 min testing.. I wasn't able to make this ROM lag at all. And with Android P animation... Browsing through system is a eyes candy. I love the Android P animations.

Everything else works well. Camera, WiFi and the usual stuff is working well. Battery is still not good. But damn...the performance is really..really good.

Just the battery bug to be fix..and I am permanently switching here.
