LG VX8300 error - Please use genuine battery message

Good news! I visited some other sites found a solution to the problem! I just had to clean the connections with some rubbing alcohol and a q-tip. Voila! I guess I was just being paranoid about Big Brother Verizon.

I think there is some hard reset for this. Why not call tech supt? Rocheux.

I know how to fix the use geniune battery problem with the LG VX8300. Apparent I cannot post my email address, but hint; my AOL screen name is xbig69benzx, so please email me any questions about the repair process. I can restore your contacts!

If simply cleaning the battery contacts with alcohol doesn't work; the phone will have to be professionally disassembled and cleaned.

ok i have a vx8550r (or a chocolate 2) and i found a solution, when you get thins error, plug it it for 7 or 8 minutes, then turn it on (while still pluged in) ok unplug it (while on) then turn it off, turn it back on and it should work i dont know if it will work, but it did for mine, and well....anything to help the community right?

Try cooling your battery in freezer for 1 1/2 hours and then replace battery with charger connected. After charging is complete power on phone with charger connected. Once you get phone restarted disconnect charger. You might want to charge the phone overnight every night so as not to have the phone shut down. Cooling the battery has always worked for me.

I found with my enV2 that if you hold the End key down to boot the phone then hold both the Send and the End key down at the Verizon splash screen that it bypasses the shutdown and boots the phone up properly. When I hooked my phone up to the charger it went to that message too. Doing the same key combination will take me to a charging status. Good luck.

Worked for me too with the enV2
