Maybe it is not perfect cause still you can tell that this battery is a little bit thicker but it is a lot better without the sticker

It is very difficult to measure the capacity of a battery.
Some external chargers are "telling" you the capacity (when you charge a battery on it) but I do not know how accurate it is because as I said is not that easy to measure it.
Also we have to keep on mind that the battery must be completely empty and it must be NEW.
We all know that a battery is loosing its capacitance when you using it. They have charge cycle limit.

but the battery is 3.8 Volt, so the calculation should be 6954Wh/3.8V = 1830mAh (which is also written on the battery...
P=U*I
P= power (W), U = voltage (V), I=current (A)
6.954W=3.8V*xA
xA=6.954W/3.8V
x=1.83A = 1830mA

no problem, i was wondering about this also and i checked my samsung phones.
they all calculate the mAh with 3.8V rating.
4.2V is the max charge of the battery though...

Hi all... just got my thl w8 battery. well, i sanded its arse off and the smell is still in my fingers. it fits.
but- i managed to tear the contactsfrom its places in 2/3 pins and so it didnt work at first.
then i thought to myself- im such a smartass why not put tin foil as contacts. (for surface contact replacement) and so it works. i have a feeling its not the best thing to do. what should i do to replace the contacts? any ideas?
also its been an hour 40 and im still onthe same initial 60% it had when i booted wih the battery.
ps
1.0.7 is better power management i had a full day and half of standby and had 30 % more w 2 hrs screen included some gps and some data and call.
so either way im pretty pleased if i stay with the original battery now. though bigger is defo better.
cheers!
