Yup! kelvin is right, in addition to that you can also use nokia BL-4C & Samsung L700 batteries as well, It has d same thickness with d original battery. d nokia BL-5C battery is little bit thicker about 1mm..
All-in-all i have 6 batteries on hand, 2 nokia BL-4C, 1 BL-5C, 2 Samsung L700 & 1 Samsung innov8 origanal battery..^_^
I rarely connect my phone to my usb charger whenever my phone runs-out of power, i jz replace my drained battery w/d fully charged one..^_^
I also bought 1 universal clip fast charger to charge my other spare batteries. ^_^
running out of power is not a prob on my innov8, in my case..^_^
Before i've charged my firmware my phone can only last for 3 to 4hrs w/heavy usage, 6 to 7hrs minimum usage..
Then i've changed my phone's firmware, flashed it w/ i8510XXIB2 firmware version. Now my phone can stand for 6 to 7hrs on max. usage, 12 to 14hrs on minimum.
Download & Install jbaktaskmanager in your phone, kill this 3 system app- screencapturer, screensaver & autolock..
Using the jbaktaskmanager application you can also increase the master audio volume of this phone, jz go to jbaktask app, press #, scroll up & look for audio test mode, then press m2-open's music player, play any music then go back to jbtask & select again audio test mode and tweak d system audio volume, change d db values..^_^
to increase your battery life span turn of d ff:
-theme effect
-auto brightness, set to lowest, power save on
-optical track pad
-switch to gsm network, if you're not subscribed to 3g connection
-wi-fi auto scanning, if your not using wi-fi connection..
I hacked my phone using hellox, intalled n-gage games, gba games, sega games, vnes games..^_^
this phone can read lot of audio & video codecs, unlike some phones..
I'm enjoyin' my innov8 to it's maximum potentials.. XD
For me definitely still 1 of the best phone out of the market 'till today, though it's almost 3yrs now since d 1st day it was released.
Still my innov8 Rockz!!!...
