Thank you @Zebulon Walton
This is a precious information !
You're welcome! The only issue I ran into is that battery had a plastic molding glued to the bottom edge (opposite edge from the contacts) that had to be removed for it to fit in the phone.
@Zebulon Walton
In the wiki they give a few different part numbers, This is the one I purchased on ebay,
It fits perfect without any trimming.
"For Samsung Galaxy J7 SM-J700 J700M J700P J700F EB-BJ700 CBE"
Only difference I noticed is the Pine battery is rated 2800 mAh,
the Samsung is rated at 3000 mAh, very close.
I also just started playing with the "'external Pine phone battery charger"' I bought last year,
but I just started using that when my new battery arrived.
That charges the battery much faster even though I am powering it with the same wall charger.
When the red LED indicator light goes out and you install the battery into the phone it reads
100% charged.
( But then that is only charging the battery and not also powering the phone. )

if you set the maximum current in the /sys which I think is 3A then it will be charging much faster minus the consumption
