Fuze Battery will work on Sprint TP and Vice-Versa

I know there was a lot of dispute as to whether or not the GSM version of the TP battery would work on the CDMA TP. Since I am an AT&T rep I can get my hands on gsm accesories. I forgot to charge last night so today I used a FUZE battery in my Sprint TP and used a store display FUZE to charge my Sprint TP battery. I checked both throughout the day as an experiment and I can confirm for a fact that both phones showed an accurate amount of charge remaining despite using the opposite battery. AT&T stores sell the FUZE battery for 41.99 so I'm not sure if it's a significant savings over the sprint store but at least you know it's OEM an not a cheap chinese built POS. I'll be using my employee 30% discount to purchase one for long term testing.

I would think there is no difference between the batteries but the plastic covering the battery itself...

Yes the battery capacity is the same between the Touch Pro and Fuze. At least that's what I recall...

What are the last 2 digits on the s/n of that Fuze battery?

Here is my post on XDA about the battery situation I researched and put out for the guys.

Now maybe it is the Chinese knock off batteries only.... I now have 4 batteries (5 total) so I have all the power I will ever need, but I would like more than one that reports the battery life.

Re: Fuze Battery will work on Sprint TP and Vice-Versa

I'm not quite sure how much a replacement battery from Sprint is, but I do know that every once in a while a rep will give you one for free if you say it doesn't last long anymore. Definitely a little bonus
