I just purchased it but my wife threw the manual away. Can I just insert the battery in my s4 and charge it normally with the S4 charger?

Yes you can. You should charge it for 10-14 hours with first charge. Then you need to completely drain and fully charge your battery at least 6 times to get the full capability out of your battery...

The manual does not indicate there is any need to drain the battery fully. Lithium ion batteries like these do not have the "memory" issues that many older re-chargeable batteries have. It charges just fine in wall-mounted chargers (from Anker and from others), as well as charging just fine in the phone, or in a separate Samsung charging cradle.

Yes, you can charge the battery in your phone. If you need a manual with this battery, please email support@ianker.com for further help.

I tried it with a coworkers S3 and it did not work. The S3 does not have a Qi chargeable battery so it will not charge on its own. I think you would need to use a third party battery if you want to be able to use it. I think they added Qi to the S4 though I have not looked into it.

Not that I know of. I really don't think it matters aside from the model. I've been using these batteries from amazon since the S4 got released and I've yet to encounter any issues. I've even used the after market ones as well and still good to go. From the S4, Note 3, S5, and soon to be Note 4....

That is around how many hours it takes to charge mine when using their charger. It is done by the time the second battery is drained low from normal use, and then I just swap them out. If you charge one in your s4 cell phone using your OEM charger that the Samsung S4 came with, then it is much quicker.

Sorry , I didnt look , I bought one for an s3 for my wife and one for a s4 for me , the 7000mAh only fits the s3 the camera and light are in a different configuration , plus the s4 is a little bigger . I should of looked at the he battery in question , you will need the 7500mAh for the s4

I just paired it with my S4 and works fine.It also works while it is charging. Although it can be plugged into the phone with the audio/headphone cable, it has no effect on the battery of either device

it works on mine! smh you just have to get a wirless reciever like the digieyes!! since the s3 is not q1 enbaled already (whatever that is called) the digiyes is inexpensive and just a small sticker u place over your battery and u dont have to get a different cover. just put your normal s3 cover back on. and then place on the powerbot to charge.

The s3 and s4 batteries are the same length but the s4 battery is a little wider so yes the s4 will work with this because if the length

No. The S3 battery is slightly smaller than the S4 battery. The charger is available for the S3 however. I owned an S3 before getting the S4 and had the same type charger for the S3. Frank

There is a 1 amp usb and a 2 amp usb pool rt on the charger so you should be fine. I use either for my S4

I got mine new so I have the charger and manual, but the battery doesn't last long. I always take the charger with me when I travel so that I know I'll have a good charge. You can film while it's charging so that helps sometimes too if you are able to plug it in.

I have the S3 and the charger works well with that model. My expectation is that it will work with the S4 as well.

I bought 2 of these on EBay but I don't remember the seller. Both of them worked but one had a defective charging port. I bought the second one to replace the one with the defective port. I have found this to be a "flakey" arrangememt, at best, and I found that the S4 must be in charging mode for it to work at all. Hope this helps.

You sure can.It's not the battery that you plug the charger into, but rather the device. Only thing I found was that it took a little longer to charge it... but I expected that since it's a much bigger battery.You'll love it once you get it... I'm getting 4 days of heavy heavy usage on a single charge, and I don't let it get down below 20% :)

yes, as soon as I received the module I upgraded the firmware. charge via USB, but best< I think if one would get the charger.

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.
