Help new battery ?

[joeblackis]

Is it possible to get a new/longer lasting battery and use it in this phone.

It has a 1500 mah battery but was wondering if a put in a bigger mah battery would that work/improve the life of the battery or would it just not work at all?

Am looking into getting a cheap replacement battery.

If you have successfully used a longer lasting battery please let me know your experiences with it and which one you used.

Thanks.

This is for a friend of mine who keeps complaining about battery life , had the phone for about a year which would/could be a reason of degraded charge. And only uses virgin mobile and insists on only using a full qwerty keyboard phone, so she is stuck with the rise until another VM keyboard phone comes out.

If you're still looking, here's one that I found on amazon: Amazon.com: Oem Kyocera Scp-46lbps Battery for Hydro C5170, Rise C5155, C5156 5aatxbt052gea- Boost Virgin Mobile: Cell Phones & Accessories

That's the actual battery that comes with the phone.

This is a pack that has 2 batteries (same spec as the Rise battery), and a charger:

Amazon.com: Onite
