It fits the GT-C501 and GT-C5010 variants using the same connector and BMS handshake as the factory unit. Swap it in when the original cell can no longer hold a usable charge across a full day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGalaxy C5 Pro and C5 Pro Duos compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both the single-SIM and Duos variants share the same battery bay dimensions, connector pinout, and BMS communication protocol — one cell covers all variants listed without modification.\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 a Galaxy C5 Pro unit and confirmed the BMS handshake completes correctly — the OS recognises the cell, accepts charge current, and reports capacity without error flags.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration on first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On first use after installation, disable fast charging and run one complete discharge-to-charge cycle. This lets the fuel gauge IC map its coulomb counter against the new cell's actual discharge curve before high-current charging is applied to an uncalibrated cell.\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 Galaxy C5 Pro after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Galaxy C5 Pro's fuel gauge IC retains the discharge curve data from the previous cell after a swap. When the new cell hits a voltage point the old curve maps to 20–30%, the IC reports a sharp drop and the OS triggers an emergency shutdown — even though physical charge remains in the cell. The fix is a full, uninterrupted discharge down to automatic shutdown followed by a complete charge to 100% with the phone off or idle. After one full cycle the coulomb counter resets against the new cell's actual curve and the shutdowns stop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eFast charging not activating after replacing the EB-BC501ABE cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eSamsung's Adaptive Fast Charging protocol requires the charger, the charge IC on the board, and the battery BMS to complete a handshake on the first charge session. A new cell's BMS starts in a conservative state and may reject the elevated current on the very first cycle. If fast charge is not triggering, use the original Samsung charger — third-party adapters can stall the handshake permanently on that session. Charge to 100% on the first cycle using the OEM charger, then fast charging activates normally on subsequent sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43391803359322,"sku":"BWCS-SMC510SL-1","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43391803392090,"sku":"BWCS-SMC510SL-2","price":45.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43391803424858,"sku":"BWCS-SMC510SL-3","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-SMC510SL-1.webp?v=1779142182","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/samsung-galaxy-c5-pro-replacement-battery-385v-2650mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
