I second the Andida battery, pretty awesome capacity and very reliable--- not to mention amazing price. I have one and put one in my wife's phone (who frequently "forgets" to charge). Have noticed a couple of hours more than the stock battery each day (as measured by % capacity at the end of the day). Andida is a very big name in batteries in Japan. The quality is evident not only in everyday use of battery, but also packaging (very meticulous and high quality).

Good luck!

As long as you remember to take the piece of plastic off the terminal ends.

That's funny! I did read that quite a few people were reporting that their batteries "weren't working ", and it ended up that they had missed taking off the tape... lol I was fortunate to have caught that

The other great thing about this battery is that it is a perfect swap out (meaning that it uses the regular battery cover and not the king kong sized extended cover).
