Is this with heavy usage?
@andysan1971
Sorry to hear that.. Maybe just use the original one with 391 or 428. Hope that will give you a better battery life06-13-12 05:49 AMLike 0 - put in original JM-1 and at 12.30 today still have 80% left - same conditions as yesterday

Hi, Kameloen,

this battery kind of makes the phone inpracticle for me from pics as it looks like a brick with it bolted on with new cover.
agree though this could be the answer if you can get over the cosmetic view
cheers anyway for response

- I am using .437 and it is ok for me with the Gold. But it has some old apps so maybe you want to choose for 391 or 428. And the positive/negative reports about different OS's are because people live in different countries with different providers and different phones. Just try 391 and see for yourself
hi,
i am now running .391 and await to see how it performs.
cheers.

- well same settings
phone with minimal use today only lasted till 4pm and was less than 5%
i am now thinking regardless of os or battery the 9900 is a gluten for power drain unfortunately
what about you Kameloen?

Battery doesn't need to be recloned on every pull. However, I have encountered a problem. The battery was once completely drained, and I know find my phone unable to recognise it upon charging, and neither does the decoder seem to work (lights up) anymore. Has anyone experienced this?06-20-12 07:36 AMLike 0

what do you guys reckon to this?06-20-12 03:51 PMLike 0 - well me again....
two days on the bounce, using default jm-1 battery, i have charge of 45% left by 11pm.
Incredible change from Monday when by 4pm phone was down to 5%
wonder if os just needed to settle in with battery.

Maybe something wrong with your phone itself. I am still using .437 with the Gold and it is ok for me. Not really a big difference with the original one.
Sent from my BlackBerry 9900 using Tapatalk06-21-12 10:33 AMLike 0 - I just got my Gold battery, like an hour ago. I bought it June 1st. After 3 weeks of sitting in postal service... Has 75%. I decoded it and popped it in. Giggity. It works no problem on 7.1.0.428. Well I'm on this roller coaster with you all now let's see what battery life I can get on this thing.06-21-12 05:26 PMLike 0

- I received the Momax 1400 battery today, and my 9900 will not accept it, running OS .428. I'm upgrading to... .532 is it? I'll see if the Momax works and post here and in the OS thread.
Edit: Upgrade to .523 done. The Momax doesn't work.Last edited by ubizmo; 06-21-12 at 09:21 PM.
