Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone
batteries overheating, catching fire or exploding. It appears that many,
if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive,
aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable
manufacturing standards. Sprint is not aware of similar problems with
Sprint PCS phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and
accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use
only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and
accessories found at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s
manufacturer, or call 1-866-343-1114 to order. They’re also available at

way to ensure they’re genuine and safe.
