Internal battery swelling

[edcoolio]

Great find for everyone needing this replacement battery!

As an aside, the normal/smaller battery should get rid of lcd screen pressure. With enough pressure from behind from a swollen battery, the screen will have color issues, 100% of the time. Banding, red, blue, and other artifacts are common in cases like this.

No guarantee that it is your cause, but there is a very very good chance that a normal/smaller battery will also fix your screen problems in this case.

Yes remove the back cover the blue mark on the LCD disappear... So temp. Use without back cover and wait for the internal replacement battery reach Malaysia..

Need to use back the internal battery PCB board (battery protector). If not the phone can not read the battery capacity.

The most difficult part is remove the internal battery PCB board... Need to be very very very careful...

Yes. Change to 3.7v 3000mah internal battery... My phone reborn... Now testing the performance look like more stable than original... I am using v3.2 Orignal Tom with root and google apps.

It happen battery swelling while I was charging my phone at 3280m highland hotel room. Lucky the back cover open and screw come out so safe my LCD...

You mean new battery was swelling?

Happened only one time, or every time at 50%?

New battery OK... But everytime internal battery reach 50% phone will restart unless take out the SIM card and off all wireless connection

Maybe this battery got problem while I dismantle the PCB board (actually did a few mistake while take out the PCB board) ... Ordering another battery then redo it again and test it again.

I think probably not a problem with the battery, unless it's all of them. Sounds more like electronic issue... Something the PCB board makes sense as you guessed. But the battery not too expensive, and can't hurt to have an extra battery.

Might also consider factory reset, but that's probably not the problem also...

Might consider different ROM too. They have different battery configurations, maybe one of the configurations will stop the problem.

Just throwing out some things to try.

I found that if I unplugged the internal battery, installed only external the system will automatically recognize internal battery as 50%. If I put in SIM card or connect it to Wi-Fi system will keep automatically restart. So today I take the battery out and resolder the connection again ( I suspect my soldering connection bad so the new battery actually disconnected) and will try it over the weekend. I suspect a lot of formers facing restating loop problem is not because of the software (ROM Version) is because of their internal battery problem!
