It slots in where the original cell has degraded past usable capacity. Voltage and form factor match OEM spec at 59.40 × 46.00 × 5.10mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAWE and Awe N800 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both models share the same battery bay dimensions, voltage rail, and connector pinout — one cell covers both. No adapter or modification needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through full charge and discharge on the AWE platform. The BMS accepted charging without fault flags, and cell voltage held stable under combined screen and modem load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge recalibration after swap:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    On first use after installation, disable fast charging for one complete discharge-charge cycle. This lets the fuel gauge IC map the new cell's discharge curve before high-current charging pushes 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\"\u003eSudden shutdown at 20–30% on the AWE after a cell swap\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe AWE's fuel gauge IC retains the old cell's discharge curve in memory after a swap. The new cell hits a voltage cliff — where cell voltage drops sharply under modem or display load — at a different state of charge than the IC expects. The phone interprets this voltage drop as an immediate low-voltage cutoff and shuts down even though the percentage shown was still high. One full discharge-charge cycle recalibrates the coulomb counter to the new cell's actual curve, and the shutdowns stop.\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 fuel gauge IC on the AWE uses a stored discharge profile to estimate remaining charge. When a new cell goes in, that stored profile no longer matches the new cell's chemistry state. The IC reads voltage correctly but converts it to a percentage using the wrong curve, so the number on screen drifts or jumps. Drain the battery until the phone shuts off on its own, then charge uninterrupted to 100% — this forces a full recalibration cycle and corrects the percentage readout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43405006897242,"sku":"BWCS-ZTN970SL-1","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43405006930010,"sku":"BWCS-ZTN970SL-2","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43405006962778,"sku":"BWCS-ZTN970SL-3","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-ZTN970SL-1.webp?v=1779369820","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/virgin-mobile-awe-replacement-battery-37v-1400mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
