If I order from you will this battery come with at least half charged? I only need this phone to transfer my information to my new phone ?

It came completly dead to me. You would have to charge it to 100 before use.

It's not the same battery that you get when you purchase the phone. I dont know if you blame copiers or samsung because i also got a battery from a mobile retailer that was not the same as the one i got with the phone. Poor batteries make people buy new phones. Sucks for consumers.

The phone itself was new, unlocked and from England. It only came with a new battery. This was the second purchase of this model with the first, which came with accessories, being through a carrier with a two year contract which I was trying to avoid. Three new batteries later I concluded the phone had a short and would cost more to repair than it's original cost.

I activated mine. I had to take it to verizon and get a SIM card though. The fee for the card is $5.00. If you have the same phone already just slide the sim card out from above the battery in the back of the previous one and replace in new phone and turn on. Everythg should just transfer over.

I don't know if the battery was charged when received, I bought it as a gift. Seems hard to believe it would be fully charged when it is shipped, unless the shipper charges it somehow prior to shipping to you.

Yes - Phone appeared to be brand new & came with a charger. Battery came in a small baggie in the same box as the phone - battery needed to be installed before the phone could be powered on and programmed.

The business I ordered from shipped mine with a battery (check with who you are ordering from to see if they specify this). I can not remember if mine came with a charger or not now. This was not pertinent to me as I was replacing an exact model of phone and already had a charger. Again check with who you order from or see if they specify this. As far as connecting to my plan I had no issue doing this. I called my carrier and supplied pertinent numbers off the phone I received. In my case it was very simple to do.

Yup, got the email on the 9th and the battery was delivered on the 10th. Been running for almost 24 hours with refresh, wifi, and GPS on, streaming music from Pandora or playing MP3s much of that time, and it's only down to 32% charge. I love this battery already! Hang in there, they are shipping.

Yes! We have two of these phones in our family on a pre-existing plan and love them. No problems with this phone and the very best battery. Charge for 15 minutes, it's full and lasts for a day and a half!

It is shipped charged because it's bad to let a battery completely drain since it will shorten it's life a little. But you should still fully charge it (24 hours) before using it.

Mine came partially charged, but I expected that. I just charged it gain to to top it off.

I got a matching model battery through Amazon and it has been fine. About half the cost as getting it from Verizon.

My phone is working well with the new battery. I accidently dropped it in the toilet on the way to Lewiston, Id and couldn't get a battery locally. Hope this helps you as I'm not good with electronics. They've passed me by!!

The phone that I bought/received was in it's original box with all the usual stuff - charger, owners manual. Placed the sim card from the phone I was replacing in it & it worked from the get go. Gave it a full charge & it has been working fine since then (Feb '14).

Not entirely sure I understand your question, Ann. Do you mean does half full battery mean the battery is half charged? I would presume so. My first Commando II literally "ate" my battery charge almost as fast as I could charge it. Turned out the phone was the problem. I learned that AFTER purchasing an extended life battery. I also bought a new phone. Now with the extended life battery and new phone, I can get up to 2 days run on it. Happy, happy, joy, joy.Mike
