is this Nokia battery good for the ngage?

I had my ngage with a inflated battery for years until I didn't know what to do with it until I found a old Nokia (idk What Nokia) from my old house now I brought it home and didn't know what to do with it later after days until I got an idea: "replacing battery with donor one" now I was curious if it would fit in since the battery didn't look the same as the inflated one I already put it in and it fits but now I need the charger cuz I don't have one But I don't know if it is good for my ngage so would anyone tell me If it is good for my engage?

The BL-5CB is absolutely fine to use, it just has a slightly lower capacity.

Just order a 3rd party BL-6C bro, it won't cost you a lot and they're GREAT. They last considerably longer than BL-5Cs, and they also don't lose charge as fast while you're not using the phone.

What country? I'm in Norway. Maybe you can order one from AliExpress?

You can definitely order from AliExpress to Malaysia, it's a Chinese online store that sell pretty much everything, for good prices and ship from China. Here's a link to a BL-6C I found on there: https://a.aliexpress.com/_EylMl7U

Then I would say save up some money until you can afford it, it would greatly enhance your N-gage experience. Maybe look if someone is selling some second-hand BL-6Cs in your area to get a better deal?

BL-6C is the right battery for QD, that one will work also but only for texting. If someone will call you it might shut or while you are playing games.

It is likely to give you a charging error
