It fits the original battery bay directly and connects to the same charge IC and fuel gauge circuit. Capacity is rated at 3.7Wh, matching the original specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSO-01C and SO-05D compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both models share the same 48.00 × 47.50 × 5.10mm cell format and 3.7V nominal voltage rail. The connector orientation and BMS handshake are identical across these two variants, so one cell covers both.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on the SO-01C platform. The BMS accepted charge current without interruption, and the fuel gauge IC tracked state of charge without cutoff errors across the full discharge curve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration on first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installation, run one complete discharge to automatic shutdown, then charge to 100% uninterrupted. The SO-01C fuel gauge IC calibrates its coulomb counter against the new cell's discharge curve during this first cycle — skipping it causes the percentage indicator to read inaccurately for days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% on the Xperia ray after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Xperia ray's modem and display draw peak current simultaneously during calls or screen-on events. A new cell with an uncalibrated fuel gauge IC can report 25% remaining while actual cell voltage has already dropped below the BMS cutoff threshold under that load spike. The BMS trips, and the phone shuts down without warning. One full discharge-charge cycle recalibrates the coulomb counter and eliminates the mismatch between reported and actual charge state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003ePhone shows wrong battery percentage after replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe SO-01C stores the previous cell's discharge curve in the fuel gauge IC's memory. When a new cell goes in, that stored curve no longer matches the new cell's voltage profile, so the percentage reading drifts — often reading 80% when the phone is nearly flat. This is not a faulty cell. Discharge the phone fully until it powers off automatically, then charge it to 100% in one session without interruption. After that single cycle, the fuel gauge resets its reference points to the new cell and percentage accuracy returns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43405095403610,"sku":"BWCS-ERM15SL-1","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43405095436378,"sku":"BWCS-ERM15SL-2","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43405095469146,"sku":"BWCS-ERM15SL-3","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-ERM15SL-1.webp?v=1779369955","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/ntt-docomo-so-01c-replacement-battery-37v-1000mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
