Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Like the other review title says... it works. I actually paid the $8 shipping on it just to get it sooner and it did get here only a couple days after it was shipped. I have redone this review many times to try to get it more accurate as I have used it more.
I put a link to a video which shows how to use this. You receive a link to it when you buy this, but obviously it would be good if you could see it before you buy it (which you can, but Amazon deleted it). At least in my experience that video is not totally accurate though. You should watch it to understand how to put the battery in, but as far as the steps go... it didn't work that way for me.
In the video it shows pressing a button before ever plugging it in. Well it didn't seem to work thatw ay for me the first time. But now it DOES seem to work that way. So keep moving the metal prongs around until that left button does make a light come on.
Secondly, it shows that a light flashes green when it's charging. It actually flashes red for me... And I took it out after a few hours and put it in my phone and it was mostly charged, so it apparently is working... while flashing red, not green.
Like someone else who wrote a review on here... I bought this because apparently a pin in the phone got bent beecause the charger for my phone would not fit snugly and it would not charge at all. I checked out reviews for cell phones and went and looked at some and none of them impress me so I figured it would be worth $11 to get this charger shipped to me and then I can decide on some new phone later if I want.
Anyway put the battery in like it shows in the video. Then plug it in. One red light will automatically be on to show the power is on. If the second red light does not start flashing then press the button on the right of the charger to flip polarity. Maybe even hold it down. If it still doesn't start flashing then you probably need to mess around with how the pins are lined up against your battery and then try again.
I think some of these may be slightly different also. Someone in one of the other reviews on here said there is no english on the box. Well on mine there is english, but just not good english. Also like I said it flashes red, not green. So maybe some different versions exist.
The more I use this the more I don't like it, though. You can't even tell if it's really charging! The first time I charged it, it had a flashing red light. Then when finished the battery lasted 89 hours before it even lost a bar. However THEN I charged it again and left it on there for more than 24 HOURS STRAIGHT. Then I finally took it out and tried it and it had not charged AT ALL even though that same red flight flashed as if it was charging!
edit: Now it charged properly again. It charges properly if you do get that light to show up before plugging ti in.
So in summary, if you have no choice but to use an external battery charger, you might as well get this. But it's not the most ideal thing ever. You have to be desperate if you resort to using this. I'm going to ahve to just buy a new phone because I can't keep dealing with something which flashes as if it's charging and isn't always even really charging! And if I take the battery out to test if it's really charging then it's hard to line it back up properly so it may not be charging the next time either.
