New extended battery doesn't charge

[Saus]

I have a rooted droid X and just got the BH6X extended battery.

So when I install the battery with the charger connected, i get the charge screen like it doesn't have enough power to turn on yet. As I watch this screen, it goes from 0% to 100% in about 10 seconds...

I can then turn on the phone and it boots fine. The phone then displays that it is fully charged to 100%. However as soon as I disconnect the power cord it immediately dies.

Obviously the battery is not charged. I have charged it for several hours and still see the same result. I have also deleted the battery stats as recommended in other threads.

Has anyone ever experienced this before (especially the "goes from 0% to 100% in about 10 seconds" part)?

i have the bh6x as well. never had that problem. sounds like your battery is defective.

So there's no chance that this could be related to the fact that my phone is rooted?

I have this same exact problem, and am currently troubleshooting. Did you ever have any luck fixing this problem?

Pretty annoying. I was looking forward to a battery with more hours in it. Doesn't currently work at all, as you describe.

I used to have a Droid x when I bought the extended battery off eBay I had the same problem. I just kept taking it out and putting it back in. Putting it the stock battery putting the extended battery back in. Eventually the x accepted the battery
