Battery Care Tips
Battery Care Tips
🔹 Getting Started
Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.
🔹 Keep It Healthy
Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.
Delivery and Shipping
Delivery and Shipping
🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

NTT DoCoMo Galaxy S (SC-02B) — 3.7V Li-ion Replacement Battery
This is a 3.7V, 1550mAh Li-ion replacement battery for the Samsung Galaxy S SC-02B, the NTT DoCoMo variant sold in Japan. It fits the original 2010 SC-02B handset and restores power capacity when the original cell has degraded. Dimensions are 51.00 × 50.50 × 5.50mm — confirm these against your existing battery before installing.
- SC-02B platform fit: The SC-02B shares Samsung's original Galaxy S battery bay and connector pinout. This cell matches that footprint and voltage rail, so the phone's charge IC can communicate with the BMS without modification.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through full charge and discharge on the SC-02B platform. The BMS responded correctly to the charge IC — no false cutoff, no thermal event at standard 1A input.
- Fuel gauge recalibration after swap: On first use, let the battery drain fully to auto-shutdown, then charge uninterrupted to 100% before use. This gives the SC-02B's fuel gauge IC one clean reference cycle against the new cell's actual discharge curve.
Why the SC-02B reports wrong percentage after a cell swap
The SC-02B uses a coulomb counter that calibrates against the original cell's discharge curve stored in memory. A new cell has a different internal resistance profile, so the counter's stored reference is immediately out of sync. The phone may show 30% when the cell is actually near empty, or report 100% well before charging completes. One full discharge-to-shutdown followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100% resets the reference and brings percentage reporting back in line.
Sudden shutdown at 20–30% on the replacement cell
This happens when the cell voltage drops sharply under load — typically when the modem fires at full power or the display peaks brightness — even though the fuel gauge still shows charge remaining. The SC-02B's BMS triggers a hard cutoff the moment cell voltage falls below its minimum threshold, regardless of what percentage the OS is displaying. It is a voltage cliff, not a capacity problem. After one full recalibration cycle, the fuel gauge catches up to the real voltage curve and early shutdowns stop occurring.

Frequently Asked Questions
My SC-02B won't turn on at all after the new battery sat in a drawer for a few months — is it dead?
The BMS locks out when cell voltage drops below roughly 2.5V, which happens during extended storage at partial charge. Connect the phone to a wall charger — not a PC port — and leave it for 20–30 minutes without pressing the power button. Once the charge IC pushes enough current to lift the cell above the BMS recovery threshold, the phone will boot normally.
The percentage on my SC-02B is jumping around erratically — sometimes it gains 10% in seconds without charging.
The fuel gauge IC is recalibrating against the new cell's discharge curve and has not yet built a stable reference. This is normal for the first few cycles after a cell swap. Run the battery from 100% down to automatic shutdown twice, with a full uninterrupted charge between each cycle, and the coulomb counter will stabilise.
Fast charging stopped working after I fitted this battery — my charger worked fine with the old cell.
The charge IC on the SC-02B negotiates charging current based on the BMS response it receives from the installed cell. On the first cycle with a new cell, the IC often defaults to a lower current rate until it confirms cell impedance is within range. Charge the battery fully once at standard rate, then disconnect and reconnect your charger — the IC re-initiates the handshake and should restore full charge current on the second cycle.
