Any ideas guys on how to check if you bought an original battery of sonyericsson? Because nokia has a hologram something(correct me if i'm wrong) then you can scratch that and enter it on their site to see if that battery is original..

I thought that iif you charge a non SE battery that you got a message saying "charging alien battery" instead of "optimised charging"... or have the counterfeiters got past that now?

aha. I've never bought a non original as I only buy extra batteries from known places and not from ebay, but this sounds like a feature that SE should have kept

I'm currently using what's probably a fake SE battery in my K800i, and it doesn't say 'charging alien battery', neither did my K510i with it's non-gen battery fitted.

I don't think that's a foolproof way of checking if a battery is fake, unfortunately checking for holograms, markings etc. I dont think is either as there are a lot of high quality 'genuine' looking fakes out there.

My W810 displayed "Charging Alien Battery". An original was in the phone, cleaned the contacts and it was sorted.
