[QUOTE="PeterJG, post: 1340140, member: 227813"] Yesterday I received a new battery: a Li-POL with 1600mAh. After having installed the battery it showed 50% on the iPhone. Unfortunately this percentage went down the hill just as fast as I was used to with the original battery, so the bad news is that the iphone itself is bugging me. Overnight I tried to charge the new battery with the AC-adapter (A1299), but strangely the iPhone was dead in the morning and I was not able to charge it at all ! I decided to uninstall the new battery. Its outer pins showed only 2.8V which is way too low for a 3.7V battery. Inside the iPhone everything was fine: no signs of burns or explosions, so I installed the original battery again and now the iPhone is operational again ! (but my charge-problem did not disappear) [/QUOTE]
