blackberry 9900 new battery .... advice.

pennymakespounds

want to have a spare ... from what i can see .. fleabay "genuine?" ones from about £9 ....

but want to query about seeing some that are Gold 2430mAh , (instead of standard 1250 mAh ) but have a "decoder" gadget where you have to sync with original battery before use ... etc
for only a few more pounds

Wondering if these are any good ? .. battery life very important so like the idea .. but does it work / is it safe etc ?

thanks

Got a local phoneshop? (NOT CPW or P4U) but a local.
Pop in and have a look. Haggle a pound off. Works for me.
Cant answer about the other batteries someone may help

Id be cautious on getting on of those gold ones. You need to have the decoder at all times to clone the battery cos they're not 100% clone proof.
Id go for one of 2 options, either a spare genuine battery and a charger which comes in a bundle, or a portable power pack that plugs directly into the phone when on the go and gives it a boost, saves you doing a battery pull.
I went for the second option, its in the mail, so can't comment further.

Maestro.

are you not getting good usage out of the battery? I can get 48 hours - it's a good battery.

Any advice for a new battery for a Blackberry curve 9300. Where to get a reasonably priced genuine one?

The ones on ebay say they are genuine but some of the feedback suggests they are not quite the real thing! Same on Amazon as well.
