 The Neo1973 and Freerunner share the same battery.

Unfortunately, they do not. gta01 battery is almost the same as Nokia
BL-6C but the average thermistor resistance is 10k (unlike ~60k in
Nokia). gta02 battery incorporates bq27000 -- a smart chip with
coloumb counter and other battery monitoring abilities.

gta01 can't charge non-gta01 battery effectively because temperature
monitoring can't be disabled in hardware (pcf50606).

Hi Torinn,

I bought a bigger battery for my HTC magican once with this shop.
They shipped fast, no problem there, but my HTC was utterly confused
about how full the battery was. i was stuck on 30% for days :-)

But with the shop i had no problem whatsoever.

Kind regards,
Ed

 It is better if it is cheap, and it must charge in the phone.


 Hmm, is this store any good?
 http://www.batteryupgrade.com/shopBrowser.php?shopGroupId=97110036#/shopGroupId/97110036

 Anybody have experience with them?

So I guess BL-5C's are a no-go.

The easiest option would be to solder a ~12k resistor between ID pin
and the ground right to the backside of the battery connector,
imho. That way you'll make all nokia batteries compatible with gta01's
charger.

I tried modifying a battery but it was too hard for me and it doesn't
work at all now.
