It slots directly into the removable battery bay and connects via the standard three-contact BMS interface on all S5 hardware revisions. OEM part numbers EB-B900BBE, EB-B900BBK, EB-B900BBC, EB-B900BBU, GH43-04165A, and GH43-04199A all cross-reference to this cell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eS5 variant compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The GT-I9600, GT-I9602, GT-I9700, and all other S5-platform models share the same battery bay dimensions, contact pitch, and BMS handshake protocol — a single cell spec covers the entire lineup without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell on a GT-I9600 unit. The BMS accepted charge on first insertion, the fuel gauge IC registered cell voltage within two minutes, and the charge IC stepped through trickle, constant-current, and constant-voltage phases without error flags.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration on first use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Disable Samsung's fast charging in Settings before the first complete discharge-charge cycle. This lets the fuel gauge IC build an accurate discharge curve against the new cell before high-current charging pushes current into an uncalibrated coulomb counter.\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 S5 after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe S5's fuel gauge IC stores a discharge curve calibrated to the original cell. A new cell with a different internal impedance profile means the IC's voltage-to-percentage mapping is wrong from the start. When the modem fires a transmission burst or the screen peaks at full brightness, current draw spikes and the new cell's voltage sags below the shutdown threshold — even though the reported percentage says 25%. One full discharge to auto-off followed by an uninterrupted charge to 100% lets the coulomb counter reset its end-of-discharge voltage reference to the new cell's actual curve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003ePhone not powering on after the replacement cell sat in storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eLi-ion cells self-discharge in storage, and if this battery sat below 2.5V per cell before installation, the BMS trips into lockout mode and blocks charge input entirely — the phone shows nothing when connected to a charger. Connect the phone to a wall adapter rated at least 5V\/1A and leave it undisturbed for 20–30 minutes. The charge IC delivers a low-current trickle that raises cell voltage above the BMS recovery threshold, typically around 2.8V, at which point the BMS re-enables full charge current and the phone boots normally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43404283248730,"sku":"BWCS-SMI960XL-1","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43404283281498,"sku":"BWCS-SMI960XL-2","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43404283314266,"sku":"BWCS-SMI960XL-3","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/samsung-galaxy-s5-replacement-battery-385v-2800mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
