[Q] Using 3000 mAh battery - Micromax Canvas A1

Hi Everyone,
I have recently purchased Micromax Andriod one mobile for my mom. The battery for her lasts 14 hours as she does not use this mobile a lot. But somewhere down the line I feel that some time will come where I need to get a replacement battery soon. I wanted to ask that can I use 3000 mAh battery or higher capacity battery than the present one (1700 mAh)?

There is no 3000 mAh battery available for Micromax Canvas A1 currently. You can try using it if it comes in the market in the future.
As for the battery life, that is pretty low what you are getting. If the mobile is not being used, i.e it is in standby and you are getting just 14 hours then there is something wrong, the standby of this phone is pretty good, I use it moderately and I get around 24 hours of battery life, And when I am at home, connected to Wifi and minimal usage easily gives me over 24 hours of battery life. I have also got a whopping 51 hours of battery life once on a single charge with WiFi and minimal usage, i.e when my phone was on standby most of the time.
Can you tell me exactly how is the phone being used? What sort of apps are installed? Its on 3G/2G/WiFi? How is the signal reception? etc. Maybe I could help you more.

Thank you for your response. Actually its my mistake, instead of typing 34 hours I typed 14 hours in hurry Sorry for that. Coming to the battery issue. Somewhere down the line the battery backup is going to deteriorate, so as a caution I wanted to know that is buying a higher mAh battery (if available) would be witty or not? As I heard there are some differences in Voltage and Ampers. Eg. I saw one battery for A116 it had 3000 mAh and 3.7 volts and 7.4Wh. While for Andriod one it had 1700 mAh, 3.8 Volts and 6.46 Wh. So this difference would canse any harm or not?? That is exactly I want to know.

34 hours is pretty normal I would say.
Yes, its natural for the battery capacity to deteriorate, however, it depends on you too. You have to practice good habits of charging in order to preserve the overall life of the battery. Follow those and you should be good for a year or two. By that time we will obviously get batteries for sale in the market which you can replace. It is advisable that you don't put other phone's battery into some other phone, yes, I know both are of micromax and might have the same dimensions, but as you mentioned there are differences at electrical level, which might or might not cause your device to misbehave, why take risk and make the situation worse?
So it's better you make use of the default battery properly by practicing good charging habits and make it run as long as possible, later on if we get a 3000 mAh for our phone then you can surely go for it or even replace the default battery with a new one as I mentioned earlier.

i don't think it is safe;;//
At the first place it doesn't seem a battery to be officially produced by micromax
and watt per hour is different on 1700mAh andon 2200mAh (with a difference of 0.1 v input)
So i suggest you not to take the risk of damaging your phone except for you really want to test it..(wont be a big damage it should be reparable )

Hey guys, Dont need to worry about that New Battery. I actually bought this new battery and been using it regularly. I didnt find any issues with this battery. It is perfectly safe. And it actually gives better Battery life since the mAh is higher in this new one. So, Anyone wanna buy this new battery, you can go ahead and buy it without any confusion...

I reported about the battery to micromax before buying.... They said buy batteries only from micromax store ......but after 2 days 3000 mAh went unavailable from eBay ....I think it was not the original and micromax consulted eBay after my report......

[Q] Compatible Battery

Hi everyone, i am facing some HUGE battery drains when i am over a 3G network.
I am currently using a Stock ROM 2.2 (JPS i guess),but as soon i turn the 3G on,my battery does not last 10 minutes.
I started looking over a battery replacement,and i´ve found all those :
Ebay Search
I want to know if you guys can tell me which would be a better alternative for a compatible battery. Also,if you guys already experienced this battery drain and were able to fix it somehow.
Thanks in advance.

if u take option 4 try indroid v6 ( u find it a development page 6 ) best rom i ever tried (the developer stopt making this rom so deleted the kernel list the rom is stil their but u need to flash a kernel if u want to overclock it otherwise its just ur normal speed ) ( btw. sorry for the bad english xP )
After 1 year and an half some months ago i faced the same problem, so i bought a new battery on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=110861143398&view=all&tid=834148161001) but i still had a short battery life on 3G/2G and i thught the problem was the ruined battery (it arrived in terrible conditions with cracks etc...) so i bought this extended battery: http://www.ebay.it/itm/261029030204...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_1965wt_1029 . It didn't arrive yet but someone that bought it can tell me if it works better than the original one or not?
After almoste 2 and a half year of service my battery died in peace
so I begon the search for a new battery and found this battery pack on e-bay
I'm using these battery's for about 2 weeks now and I have to say I'm very satisfied
They last for about 3 day's (mobile data constantly connected, wifi for about 1 hour turned on and some pictures)
I definitely recommend this battery pack to al of you

just do some comparison,differ country 3G line will affect the BL too, just want know which one better.i didnt complaint my battery is bad. when u see a lot of forum member post about this , that means the battery life is one of concern of people.
so i started a thread to gather all the info from member , maybe we find someway to work out for longer the bl of our devices
It looks like you dont know anything about how 3G works and why it may affect BL. Its all about range, protocol switching, and BTS placement.
Keep in mind, this is SMARTPHONE with QUAD+1 CORES and HD display. The good battery life score with average usage is 1 DAY. with heavy usage is couple of H. If you want it to work a week without charge, get nokia E51.
Poeple need to understand that there is no such topic as bad battery life in such monsutros smartphone. Live with it or leave it.
Well I fully charged my HOX on about 20:00 and in the morning when I wake up (12:00- I'm a heavy sleeper ) , It still shows 100% of battery! That's quite outstanding, isn't it?

Yeah after a few days struggling with a battery draining issue I managed to solve it and now my HOX has an amazing battery life Even though it is still facing some battery draining with the camera (Not to mention the scratched camera lens). It lasts 2-3 days with normal gaming. 5-6 days of normal usage (without gaming)

Well I updated the software build to the latest. Than I do a factory reset. After that, I use my phone normally until it shows me the warning of "the battery is lowerthab 10%", I turn off my phone completely then charge it for 8 -> 12 hours then turn it on and use it normally again. Repeat those steps 3-4 times and your HOX's battery life should be fine

Replacement battery with bigger capasity

I found couple of variants in dx.com
One is says 2350 mAh
Another clams even 2850 mAh
http://dx.com/p/replacement-2850mah...sung-galaxy-s4-mini-i9190-252363#.UtbFJeIlM4I
It is almost 30-50% higher than original. I don't beleave in it. Maybe someone tried?
if it has the same dimensions as the original battery, don't even try it
I just purchased this battery for the fun of it, it's cheap, and my i9192 oem battery does not last long.
after some testing, the size although quoted 2850mAh, it's same as the oem one.

Just to let you know, a good quality battery always state a serial number and the size of the battery under the sticker, after removing the label, nothing is on the battery, so it's something they are trying to hide.

Hey Guys, i bought one of the battery signed i9192 and 2800mAh. The battery drain was the same like the original Samsung 1900mAh battery, but there was a little problem with the exact size. It is about only a half mm, but it had to push hard the battery to go into it's place.
I've tried a few battery, non of them are true to value, all have the same time as the oem, although I haven't actually used it and whether it will drain faster.
there are some on ebay, 6500mAh 'mbuynow' extended batteries
ive bought one, works ok, nothing special, once fully charged after 24 of heavy useage it dies but strangely if you power your phone on again, it gives another 40-50% battery life which can easily go for severel more hours
fairly cheap too, uk price around £9 with extended back door cover
NFC support too, thou i never use it

I guess so, but I've never experienced that on other Samsung devices using extended batteries, I've ordered a zerolemon battery for the S4 mini, it's coming from Texas, America. Do u think I'll get the same thing on that? I'm using a custom kernel also

yes you definitively will! I've read on an amazon review that someone managed to get this fixed by editing some files in the kernel source.
China accesories... they say 2800mAh but there is less than original battery... Such as china pendrive seen 128GB but there is less than 4GB.

Here is my translation for the workaround:
Edit the following file in the kernel source "drivers/power/pm8921-bms.c" as following:
In the function "calculate_fcc_uah" you have to paste
/* fixme: powerakku has the double capacity */
scalefactor *= 2;
below
"scalefactor = interpolate_scalingfactor_fcc(chip->fcc_sf_lut,
chargecycles);"
then build the kernel and update the "bootimg" (with abootimg) with the new kernel and flash it then via dd to "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot"
Reboot your Device.
You should calibrate the battery with an app from the market (first discharge your battery (<10%), then delete "/data/system/batterystats.bin" , reboot and charge to the fullest.

Here is my translation for the workaround:
Edit the following file in the kernel source "drivers/power/pm8921-bms.c" as following:
In the function "calculate_fcc_uah" you have to paste
/* fixme: powerakku has the double capacity */
scalefactor *= 2;
at
"scalefactor = interpolate_scalingfactor_fcc(chip->fcc_sf_lut,
chargecycles);"
then build the kernel and update the "bootimg" (with abootimg) with the new kernel and flash it then via dd to "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot"
Reboot your Device.

it's a known issue, because the kernel always expects a 1900MAH battery

I have the same issue with ~4300mAh battery from eBay. Is it a S4 Mini common issue or generic Android issue? Any easier fix/calibration coming?
The battery is made in China, but it is not true it is the same or worse than original 1900mAh. I don't believe it has full 4300mAh capacity, but it is still around twice as big as the original one. My wife's phone lives twice as much time after the upgrade, but it has to be rebooted (after it dies when powered up it has 40-50% of power again).
Some system tools (like Android Tuner) has an ability to override the battery capacity value provided by kernel.
I've never tested it, since I'm with the usual battery, but you can try this..

We will almost certainly see a cyanogemod release on the platform at some point in the future.When we do, you can always leverage its theme engine to get the touchwiz look:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thomassafca.theme.touchwiz.five.free&hl=en
or for that matter the xperia look:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.theme.XperiaZ&hl=en
The phone is available to order now on amazon- they ship it on the 24th and in my experience it only takes 2-3 days to get to you. As a side note- this phone is pretty well optimized out of the box.

It's alright- not that great. Expect 18-20 hour backup with moderate usage, i.e. charge the phone every evening. 3G takes more of a toll on the battery than wifi though.
what?

Yes- I don't use it heavily, but with 1-2 hour screen time I need to charge it in the afternoon/evening everyday.

so the battery back up is around 8 hrs with moderate usage..
Don't worry about the battery life. It's good enough. Don't fall for users who are assuming it and not used in person.

Must be something wrong.. It's not that bad. About other user talking about need to charge by evening.. That totally depends on the usage.. What's the screen on time on such scenario?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Free mobile app
I'd like to share by battery stats.... I'm a moderate user. Gaming is not a priority. Both Sims are connected. Network is 2g. Wifi is on (goes to suspend when screen is off) most of the time. I'm getting more than expected backup. I believe playing a game like asphalt will drain battery on any phone. Screen will be at maximum brightness. All your phones resources are being used. Also a 6.5k price phone is not to be expected to do heavy gaming and still have a lot of battery

New Battery

ssss
tetanus444 said:
Hi, I would like to ask if it is possible to get a NEW battery for Lenovo K5 Plus (about the Lenovo BL259 battery type).
New ... I mean the newly made in 2018.
I dont need a new battery urgently, but I would like to buy a new one in a while.
The current battery is good but I would like to buy a new battery over time (I charge up to max cca 85% always, I dont discharge to full discharge etc.).
Maybe someone has already solved something like this, like a question about an official producer, good shop etc.

Well you might be a little bit crazy with the battery thing.
The phone is from Februrary 2016, you might bought it even after that.
The battery life may decreased a little bit over time, but after 2 years not a lot, you might buy one from Ebay:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Battery-BL...223065?hash=item3d4eedf699:g:zbgAAOSwbF1aCAkB
Well yeah it's from China but should work fine.
If you think you might have big battery drains that could be from the Rom itself, and you may install an custom Kernel like this one to help with that: https://forum.xda-developers.com/k5-plus/development/kernel-t3725978
Or you might change the Rom with one that doesen't drain that much.
