It fits the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy SIII variants listed under Verizon's lineup, including the SCH-i535 and SCHI535ZKB. Voltage and capacity match the OEM specification exactly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSCH-i535 platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These Galaxy S3 variants share the same connector pinout, BMS handshake protocol, and 3.8V nominal voltage rail. The same cell works across all listed model numbers without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this battery through charge and discharge on the SCH-i535 platform. The BMS accepted the cell without error flags, and the charge IC completed a full CC\/CV charge cycle to 4.35V without interruption.\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-charge cycle at standard current. This lets the fuel gauge IC map the new cell's discharge curve before high-current charging pushes current into an uncalibrated state.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Galaxy S3 reports wrong battery percentage after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe SCH-i535 uses a coulomb-counter fuel gauge IC that builds its model from accumulated charge and discharge data on the original cell. When you install a new cell, that model no longer matches the new cell's actual capacity curve. The gauge keeps reading against stale calibration data, so the percentage shown on screen drifts from the real state of charge. One full discharge to auto-off followed by a complete charge cycle resets the coulomb counter against the new cell and restores accurate percentage display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% remaining on the replacement cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the modem radio or display draws a high current burst and the cell voltage drops below the BMS cutoff threshold before the fuel gauge registers the drop. On the SCH-i535, LTE transmission and screen-on loads can pull enough current to cause a momentary voltage sag to below 3.2V even when the gauge reads 25%. The BMS triggers a hard cutoff to protect the cell. After the shutdown, plug in and charge to 100% — this resets the BMS and gives the fuel gauge a fixed reference point at full charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43404326961242,"sku":"BWCS-SMI535XL-1","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43404326994010,"sku":"BWCS-SMI535XL-2","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43404327026778,"sku":"BWCS-SMI535XL-3","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-SMI535XL-1.webp?v=1779369778","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/verizon-galaxy-s3-replacement-battery-38v-2100mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
