I have been using the battery for a couple months and I haven't had that problem. It doesn't seem to charge consistently though.I have not been happy with battery performance.

Nope, got two of them and they both work fine and last longer than the original. Send it back, you probably just got a bad one.

I am using a Tmobile Samsung S3 with the Ravpower 3.8V battery. Using for 6 months and no problems.

I'm not clear as to what you're ssking but I can say that the Gorilla battery is working just fine for my son and I. We both have the Samsung Galaxy S3 and the battery life sucks on these phones. Now, with my child as a gamer, he plays on his phone, listens to music, and text all on one single charge. For myself, I utilize the GPS-Scout quite a bit and I have witnessed extended battery life. In reference to the product being compatible with Canadian carriers, you need to call Amazon or the carrier themselves.Have a good day!!

Should work just fine. Just like Flipswitch said, line up + and - pins on charger, then insert battery. Use my charger every day for spare batteries for Samsung Galaxy S3. Works great, never a problem and never without a spare fully charged battery. Highly recommend this charger.

The output amperage is too low to fully charge a Galaxy S3 or S4. The lower the Amperage the longer it takes to charge a battery. In fact, Anker has the following statement on the Amazon web page for this item, "Can NOT fully charge batteries for the Samsung S3 & S4". If it says that, why would you buy it for a Galaxy S4?

I am a bit confused. Can someone please explain the issue? Does the tablet stop charging for no apparent reason, or does the USB port get broken. Or do both issues seem to happen do different people. When I first heard of it, it sounded like the USB port was breaking, but then one respondent says he fixed the issue by letting the battery run down completely.

It has an issue. You cannot allow it to fully charge. If it is then the entire screen goes blank and you cannot do any thing unless the charge comes down. It works fine if it is partially charged.

Hi, You know, I just tried on my galaxy s3 and it DOESN'T work at all. This is a cheap piece of plastic. I suggest you go buy one at best buy at the Samsung hub, that way they can help you with any doubt. And best of all, you can return it if it doesn't work.

I have the exact same problem. I contacted the vendor about it but I have not recieved a reply. When the battery is 100% full it runs fine but when charging, it's almost unusable.

I called the Samsung company, and he told me to keep it plugged in the wall, and eventually it was a steady light and it started to charge. I let it charge for a while and it was totally charged. So try this before you go out and buy a new battery.

Not to my knowledge. It wouldnt be worth the effort give. The price. I ultimately bought another battery locally. Now that I bought another battery locally. I believe the Samsung galaxy 3 is the culprit.

It's compatible with my Samsung Galaxy S3. However, it only charges to 89% or so - however, again, I charge it on a wall charger I purchased at Radioshack because my charging port does not work on my phone. I'm assuming that is the real reason it doesn't charge to 100%. Overall, I am satisfied.

I have a Samsung WB850F and the battery is compatible and the charger, also. However, I had ordered the charger for a trip to China and it stopped working while I was there. Had to wait several days until I could find a replacement. I lost MANY great photo opportunities in China because I didn't have a working charger for those days!!! The battery was fine, the problem was the charger. I was able to get a new one but couldn't make up for those lost photos!!!

I don't know about your particular problem but I received a bad battery. The phone would show 5% and charging and after a few minutes would say it was fully charged but the phone would not boot up. I returned the bad battery and ordered another one from the same vendor. The new battery worked fine. Not sure if this is any help but wanted to share my experience.

Well I've never used a galaxy s3 but I think you need a Wireless Charger Charging Receiver for the battery like this one.http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00DYOL2RY?cache=219becb1843dfbcf802ddf8529a3b98aπ=SY200_QL40&qid;=1414036635&sr;=8-1#ref=mp_s_a_1_1 ahttp://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00DYOL2RY?cache=219becb1843dfbcf802ddf8529a3b98a&p;i=SY200_QL40&qid;=1414036635&sr;=8-1#ref=mp_s_a_1_1 as for the s2 I don't think it's capable of qi charging I've not seen anything for that device I hope this helps Good luck.

Yes. I've heard from many people that when the micro USB port breaks or something similar happens with the charging port that this was their saving grace. Now with that being said, if you have installed Android on your device there are extra steps that you have to take, basically just resetting the A6 firmware in WebOS every few months because of a bug. Basically the A6 bug causes the tablet to discharge the battery VERY quickly over time if Android is installed, but resetting the A6 firmware every few months fixes the issue. It only takes a couple minutes to reset it, it's very easy. You can find how to do it online. If not, just contact me & I can send you a link. Oh, on the subject of your USB cable, it's NOT the cable, it's the charger. Trying another micro USB charger you have laying around the house will NOT work either. It has to be a hi powered charger like the one it came with. You can find some here on Amazon and on eBay. I bought a couple to keep while traveling ($4.00). Hope this helps.

Yes, works well with mySamsung S 3 Galaxy ,SCH-1 1535. Depending on usage I get up to two days without charging.

As long as you use it correctly i was only able to to charge my galaxy nexus once, the main problem was that the device was not labeled as + or - but my battery was and the instructions are not very clear I also noticed that the charge did not last very long. Samsung batteries also tend to have 4 charging metal plates an this device only has two so you have to figure out which configuration will work for you.
