Hey,
Trying to find a genuine, NEW Samsung battery to give new life to my used Nexus S. Any one have any ideas? It seems like all the ones I find are either used, or probably not real...
I'm looking for this too...

I've been searching for one too, in Canada.

Did you try asking Samsung? I have been on the same mission to get a genuine battery, I emailed their customer support asking about buying a genuine battery in the UK and they responded within 12 hours:
In regards to your enquiry, all our official accessories and spare parts can be bought from the following sites:
www dot samsungdirect dot com/uk
www dot 4mysamsung dot co dot uk/
If they don't have the parts you require, you can contact them directly to enquire.

4mysamsung dot co dot uk has what appears to be a compatible Nexus S battery (GH43-03359B) and ships globally (shipping to Canada is £8). If you ask there might well be a Canada
(I also saw www dot exportprive dot com recommended on here for genuine Samsung batteries, apparently they export from Korea so it may be a good option)
(Sorry for the URL mangling, xda-developers won't allow me to post full URLs)
I got one on Amazon, from Samsung. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0026LQL40/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
I also got an extended battery too, but I lost NFC with it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005D7T7EK/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00

I ended up ordering from DX.com - got a battery and a charger. Only planning to use it as "backup", so I don't care if it's as good as the real deal.

No - it's not OEM - http://dx.com/p/usb-ac-battery-char...r-samsung-i9020-google-nexus-s-100-240v-57063
Would this battery work? (need to know, ASAP.)
Or, This?
I think the second one would?
K, thanks.

I think you can buy it from official Samsung site, Bestbuy, eBay or Amazon

The Samsung US site won't ship to Canada, nor is it available on BB's website. EBay may be an option. It looks like 3 are available on amazon now. They previously were not in stock.

Thanks.
I just found an eBay seller who has them on for $45US. I hit the "make an offer" and offered $39 for one and they accepted. They are new in box, according to seller. It says he has 11 left.

Anyone know if the part that holds the nexus s (the plastic "cover") is removable from the car dock? I much prefer my IQ Solutions dash mount, but would love to have something like that piece to hold my phone.
The holder detaches from the arm.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
wouldnt it be better to get a generic holder like the exogear one? I mean, most nexus s owners replace phone once a year, does everybody also replace all the accesories? what is special about the official samsung holder other than the made to order snug fit? just curious.

Yeah, I replace the accessories yearly as well. Normally its just a car dock though.
The OEM docks just fit so much better. The nexus one stock was nice for the built in speaker phone and auto activation of car mode....but with nfc that is really not necessary anymore.

has the exploding fake battery gone out of style? I remember a few years ago there were a series of incidents were batteries exploded. I suppose nothing is guaranteed, but are these batteries at least third party from a respectable place?
i'll probably go for the Sedio one http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/basi17ssn2.htm
1750 mAh without changing battery door
I use the cheap Chinese versions from Ebay with chargers. They work just as well if not identical to the original. Since I charge them in the wall, they can explode if they like.
Seriously though, I have also used the same ebay source for my wife's EVO 4G as well without issue. If fact she prefers them over the HTC red OEM's for some reason.
so many sellers
which is the preferred one?
Just throwing this out there, but authentic new Samsung batteries go for between $9 and $15 on Amazon. That's pretty cheap for peace of mind.
are they genuine oem?
care to link to one?
do exploding batteries only explode when being charged?
thanks!

I don't notice a difference in life span, and for that price for a Samsung battery, can you argue with it?
Is it one u would find at a retail store? or coming in with a phone? or a rejected one that didnt meet specs?

Anybody know anything about android-sale.com ?
Are they scammers or a legit business ?
Im thinking about buyong a cheap tablet for my daughter this christmas
Hi there jalabert,be very careful of these unknown web-site,
I have sent them e-mails about their products and so far have NOT RECEIVED
ANY REPLY???further more they do not up-date their web-page at all !!
Looks suspicious you should always buy a very cheap screen protector or something before you buy a $250+ phone to see If they are legit
re:
are they really scammers.Because I am willing to buy stuff from them.
any update??
Its seems that they do update there website and they do have a nice will updated blog...
You can pay with paypal, then the risk is not that high.

Why are they so cheap?

Because they're the China made rip off phones. They'll look how they should but the specs won't be as they normally would be.

There is too much WIN in that site.
OK, just buy from Ebay or Amazon. Done.
If you want to order something from a shaddy website, go on. Not saying that it's a scamming site, but i have never ever heard of it and i would advice to keep the f away from it. Is 5-50 worth it? No. Buy your device or "thing" from a genuine place and don't get cheated. .
Easy peasy.

Hi, I've bought from them and my order turned up no problems. Paid with PayPal too.
On the same topic, has anyone returned something to them for repair? I dropped the phone I bought and smashed the screen. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience returning to them for repair or returning something to China in general??
Thanks
legit or scam ?

pls someone in the uk must have bought the black version , I need to contact very in the morning and I need to know whether it comes in a retail box ?? .... I am concerned ive been sold either a customer return or refurbished camera
The camera looks new and has upgraded to 4.1.2 and is BTU as my galaxy note 2 is however im worried why it hasn't come in a retail box and secondly im concerned when I come to sell the camera it wont sell for as much without the original box
Will Samsung if I give them the serial be able to help me tell if its new / refurbished or second hand
Thanks
All their kit should come in a retail box, sealed.

just what I thought, very advise that if a retail box is damaged they will supply in a brown paper box which is not good enough
ive spoken to Samsung who advise me to return the item which im going to do
fuming .com
Hmmmm, at the very least include the box in the package, with a note, stating we think it's just superficial damage but if you find a fault send it back.

my thoughts exactly !
I had several stories from very saying 1. if it is a damaged box we replace the box to 2. this is the way Samsung supply them !
funny cos Samsung say nope they come in a retail box
They then tried the oh you cant return cos you turned it on .. erm distance selling regs I took care and only looked at the item to make sure it was ok (before deciding it wasn't suitable therefore returned back as new) also I needed to get the serial for Samsung before they would speak to me and couldn't see it on the camera cos it was tiny
After some discussions, pictures took of the said item for evidence and returned back to very for a full refund
off to john lewis tomorrow to get a proper boxed camera
Sammy even replied back to me on facebook advising to return it back to very
very naughty if you ask me !
Just picked my camera up from John Lewis oh guess what is in q Samsung box . Think my very account is going to be closed

Really? Wonder why, I only heard about their good warranty service because of a bloke across the road has just bought a Nexus 7, he was gonna get it direct from Google but, because it was the same price from JL, he got from there simply because of the extra warranty they throw in.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
I always buy from matter what as they run Rings round anyone else.
The girl I spoke to today wasnt sure why it didn't have 2yr but the other question is why has sammy only given 12 months all their other products have 2yrs
I thought £47 for 3 years peace of mind through john lewis is reasonable though

The official has dropped in price in most outlets. I'd sooner pay a bit more for the official one.
Now if the Chinese copy was a different design or style, now that would have piqued my interest.

yes but its twice the price even when price dropped
Not bad but I would rather stick with the original which you can get for $35 on amazon. They should have done something different with this knockoff version. I don’t like the LLC written in the band and not sure if its due to the pictures or what but it doesn’t seem as visible as the original. I would however like to see a review on this thou.
From the inside case image, it seems missing the chip set. I wonder it will working it not.
I bought one. Hopefully its not too bad.

20 bucks for a copy is still to much
This went up on ebay today http://www.ebay.com/itm/151362252934
Looks pretty nice. A little worried that it doesn't show any pics of it with the phone but whatever its covered by ebay's guarantee and after buying a pouch for my phone i had some extra and thought "why not?" Hopefully it comes soon and I can tell you all if it works well or not.
mheera clearly is the seller and is just advertising it here. He/she didn't 'Find' anything. 18.88 is still way overpriced for a replica.
