Can i charge these batteries in the phone with the stock charger, or does it only charge with the supplied charger?

Either. I misplaced my original battery so I have been charging one in the phone and the other in the charger.

Works just fine for me with a standard Micro-USB charger. The batteries have been perfectly adequate for me. It's nice being able to swap them out quickly in a pinch.

Yes you can charge these batteries with the stock charger while they are in the phone.

Yes you can charge the batteries in the phone or on the charger provided, and the charger even has a USB port so you can charge the battery in your phone and the one on the dock simultaneously.

I bought an extra batt from Amazon as well and both batteries, the one that came with the phone (tmob s3) and the recently purchased one work ok. I think the newer battery is flaky. It only shows about 80% after charging overnight. Doesn't say that there's circuitry in the charger to prevent overcharging, but it does take a looong time to charge. IMO the slow charging cycle extends the life of the battery. There's a battery charge indicator light that shows RED when charging and BLUE when the battery is fully charged. Hope that helps.

No, the batteries can only be charged in their specifically designed chargers.

Agreed with Keith's answer, I charge both the original and this one in the standard charger. Just swap them out when I get home after taking shots. Great backup for the price.

Gosh, have no idea. I've only charged the batteries from a regular plug-in.

You have two options of use with this. You can take the charged battery out of the charger bundle and swap it with the one in the phone or just plug the bundle (with battery) into your phone and it will charge the battery in your phone without having to swap out batteries.

Yes, sort of. These batteries have specific eflite-only plugs, so it's necessary to either use their charger or to get an adapter that goes from the battery plug to the charger. If you have that, then charge away!

As answered previously, each phone has a battery charger. I have never even had to replace batteries in these phones since my original purchase.

Yes, just be very careful that you put them in correctly. Otherwise, any remaining charge in the battery will melt the charger.

Yes you can charge the battery normally via USB. No need to take the battery out of the phone. Works twice as good as my stock battery for my Sensation 4G.

If you are a heavy user and drain your batteries quickly, you can plug in your phone and put the other battery in the charger, these batteries last a lot longer than the OEM batteries, so I only need to plug the phone in, I haven't needed to use the other battery during the day

I have the original stock battery and a Noot 2200mAh i9300 battery since I broke the charging port and cant charge the phone normally. The charger works well but I need to replace my spare Noot battery because it started to bubble. I hope this is helpful.

Hey J YO,It's hard to say. I haven't actually charged them yet. I used them out of the package, factory charge and they are STILL going. I'll update you once I charge and use them a couple times. The factory charge, thus far, is our performing ANY rechargeable I've ever used, and any alkaline, for that matter. It also may be the charger though. I did not purchase a new charger for these batteries as I already have two. Have you been charging yours with an old charger?

Not with this charger. The batteries have to stay in. But unlike the stock charger you do not have to peel back the rubber or insert any plug, just set the handset in the cradle and it charges.

Thanks for the info. I had the same question about the charger working for the gold batteries

Yes, it can be charged that way too. I tried the charger at first, after an hour the light indicated "charged" but when I started my phone it was only showing %60 battery. Maybe the charger is faulty, but the battery is still working great! I reach %100 very fast while charging. Hope this helps you. My girlfriend has the same phone and I gave her one of the batteries, it didn't work out for her, she says it's the same as the original, I haven't tried out that battery on my phone, plus her phone is really in bad conditions, lots of apps installed and stuff...

JPH The charger works with all batteries. I have several different brands and all charge fine.
