It replaces the original battery when the phone no longer holds charge, shuts off unexpectedly, or fails to power on. Capacity matches the OEM figure — 750mAh (2.78Wh).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNokia 3128 fitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The 3128 uses the BL-5001C form factor — a slim single-cell pack with a three-pin connector that feeds both charge current and the temperature sense line. Swapping to a cell that breaks that pinout causes the charge IC to reject the battery entirely.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through charge, standby, and load discharge on compatible Nokia hardware. The BMS accepted the charge handshake cleanly and held cutoff voltage within spec throughout the test cycle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration after install:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On first use, disable any fast-charge mode and run one full discharge-to-charge cycle. The Nokia 3128's fuel gauge IC was calibrated to the original cell's discharge curve — giving it one clean cycle against the new cell lets it reset its coulomb counter baseline before high-current charging begins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Nokia 3128 reports wrong battery percentage after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe 3128 uses a fuel gauge IC that builds its charge estimate from a stored discharge curve mapped to the original cell. When you fit a new cell, that curve no longer matches actual cell behaviour. The IC keeps referencing stale data, so the percentage reading drifts — often showing full charge well before the cell is actually topped up. One complete discharge and full charge cycle forces the IC to re-map against the new cell and restores accurate reporting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% on the new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the cell voltage drops sharply under load — typically during a call, when the modem and screen draw current simultaneously. The BMS reads that voltage dip as a low-cell event and trips the cutoff before the OS can log a graceful shutdown. It is not a faulty battery — it is the fuel gauge IC misreading state-of-charge because it has not yet recalibrated. Run two full discharge-charge cycles and monitor percentage; it should stabilise above 3.5V under normal load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43409480253530,"sku":"BWCS-NK3128SL-1","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43409480286298,"sku":"BWCS-NK3128SL-2","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43409480319066,"sku":"BWCS-NK3128SL-3","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-NK3128SL-big.webp?v=1779579814","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/nokia-3128-replacement-battery-37v-750mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
