Please Help!!!!!!!!!!! Having problems with phone

[thenameisnigel]

When your phone gets really hot (ex. when leaving screen on with long time-out while charging) the heat will cause the battery to expand (budge). Same thing happened to me with my HTC Droid Eris...it was literally smoking under my pillow when I woke up, and Verizon refused to repair it even though I had insurance so I came to Sprint.

ok, so new here, i see how it spin it, but hhow does a "buldging"battery look??

Depending on the buldge it might not look different compared to a normal good battery. Calipers would be needed in some cases.

Pull your battery out, mine was doing this too and my battery was actually swelled up.

It's definitely swelled up, i have the same problem. It's enough to where you can see the bulge through the back case but not enough to be THAT noticeable.

This is what mine looks like. I'm trying to find a good supplier of an authentic samsung battery without the samsung price. Any suggestions?

Got my new battery from accessorygeeks.com.
Official Samsung battery for $24.99 with free shipping.
Cured my phone issues.
Original battery was bulging badly.

Amazon has the Genuine Samsung OEM batteries for around $20 too. I replaced mine twice in the 13 months I've had the phone

Lisa... I strongly recommend you purchase a new/replacement battery for your phone. I also recommend that you only purchase the original Samsung OEM battery, not a third-party brand replacement. They can be found on Amazon for around $10... well worth the investment to keep your phone working well.
