If it's a NEW battery, it could be that your charger is defective. Charger cable could have a short.Take it to the store you bought your service from. They should be able to tell you if it's bad.

I also ordered 2 of them in October and neither work. They're probably used batteries because there's nothing wrong with my charger. What a rip off.

I had the same problem with this junk battery. It died totally 2 days after the 30 day return date. Have informed Amazon they should remove this item for sale as it is defective merchandise but no reply so far.

I have ordered several of these batteries with no issues... I suggest you send it back and get a different one.

Is the phone still working? Mine did that for a couple days then shut down. I ordered the original motorola battery and my battery life is better than originally! Does that answer your question?

I have had the battery less than a month. It is great so far. I would recommend that you find someone who has had the battery over a year. That is when my previous third-party battery from another company failed despite not being recharged much.

Yup, got the email on the 9th and the battery was delivered on the 10th. Been running for almost 24 hours with refresh, wifi, and GPS on, streaming music from Pandora or playing MP3s much of that time, and it's only down to 32% charge. I love this battery already! Hang in there, they are shipping.

Hello Linda. I bought this battery just last year when the original died of natural causes. At most, this sucker last me about an hour to an hour and a half after it's been fully charged. Might not seem like much mind you, but I tend to use the internet a lot and stream things online, and different pages up at once. The less you use, the longer it'll last bit I was reall happy when I got it. And instalation is pretty simple. Let me know if this does/doesn't solve your riddle. I will try again for you. Please have a good evening.

My battery has lasted a long time. Don't know exactly how long but a lot longer than 9 months. Maybe you just had a bad battery.

This battery has worked great in this phone. I do have an app that monitors the battery and tells me if there are things running in the back ground that should be turned off if not being used which has also helped. When i first got this phone i was barely able to get 6 hours out of a charge. With this battery i can get up to 30 hours depending on how much i use it. I would recommend it because it has worked really well for me.

hello therI had a bad experience with this purchase. The phone I received had a bad battery, and the vendor (not Amazon) was extremely rude (he said "go and buy a new battery" ????) anyway I filed a complaint with Amazon and they refunded me the money. Kudos to Amazon, bad for the vendor (I don't remember the name) ... so be careful who you buy it from ...Hope it helps....

This is a tech question and should be answered by the company. "FoundersTelecom.com" I have no way of knowing that. F.Y.I. I just ordered a new battery which was half the price of buying a new phone. It didn't feel like it lasted too long as I rarely use this phone. Caveat emptor, if you haven't bought the phone yet. BTW, sorry it took me so long, but I wasn't sure I could recommend this product or what the problem was with it.

I would suggest contacting the seller. Sounds like it might be a bum battery.

I had the same problem. I took my phone and battery to Verizon whom tested it they told me the battery was no good. So I am sending mine back.

Hey Bev, sorry i bought this battery! There is only about 45 minutes of battery life so i basically have to keep it plugged in all the time. This is the second replacement battery I have bought. Next time I'll go back to Best Buy and spend more money. Nope not a Samsung battery.

My phone is working well with the new battery. I accidently dropped it in the toilet on the way to Lewiston, Id and couldn't get a battery locally. Hope this helps you as I'm not good with electronics. They've passed me by!!

It's usually a battery problem, not a phone one! When I first got my S3 battery lasted about 20 hours after a full charge, now it lasts about 5, I use 3 different batteries a day using an external charger on one battery while using another on the phone and so on. My advice: get a new battery
