Close to stock battery cover with 3200mAh

This is the closest to the stock Hero door I could find with a extended battery. It comes with the 3200mAh battery and teh door for 79.95

I have not tryed this out becuase I dont have 79 dollars because I have spent my entire check on apps LOL. So if anyone has tryed this one out tell us about it.

but the battery cover isnt close to stock? lol
BUt 10 dollars cant go wrong! Ordering now.

Careful, that eBay item appears to be for the euro/GSM Hero, not the CDMA Sprint Hero. The backplate looks far too square to fit a CDMA Hero.

Yeah it's questionable, I bought one for the battery reviewer (from the battery reviews in my sig) so I can atleast find out if it's a good battery.

Ummm... ok here's a novel question... how do you cope with putting a case on your Hero when it comes to these extended batteries? I have the body glove case from Sprint and there is no way I could fit it on my Hero if I had a larger back cover. Do a lot of people just not have their Hero's in cases? Or what else are people using to protect their Heros? Cuz I wouldn't mind having one of them longer lasting batteries myself

They sell strap cases where you just put them on your belt loop and you can just insert your Hero into them and take them out. Not protected 100% percent of the time but it just makes you be more careful. But I just don't use a case on at all.

I ordered an Otterbox Impact series, 12 bucks from amazon.

heres one from ebay that acually goes to the HERO200 (cdma sprint hero) for like 16 bucks.. just incase you guys are still looking.. the door looks pretty close to stock.. hope this helps guys...

thats funny.. ive had plenty of mugen batteries in the past plus seidio..and never had one problem etc.. if that mugen 3200 mAh battery is really 1785 then wouldnt it not last very much longer than the stock battery? my brother has the mugen 3200 and it lasts almost as long as my seidio 3500 mAh..
so I dont understand how that can be true unless that mugen was defective!!!

actually....it's a 1790mAh batt instead of a 3200mAh, but even so it seems to last alot longer than the stock battery. I complained to the seller and I got it for free so whatever. I'll let you know how the new 2600mAh one is, I wish the batterboss would review (which btw, go check out his review on the Mugen "3200mAh")
I have the link in my sig, I mean Yes, the Mugen got near 2400mAh which is better than the no name....but at what, nearly 700-800% price increase!!!

The cover that comes with it fits well and is quite comfortable though sadly it doesn't incorporate the 1790mAh battery, so I still have to run with that coverless (though with a vinyl case as a back cover).
The battery itself has quite good battery life, and I'm sure it's going to get better with future charges. I'll let you guys know if it gets any better, though I can definitely recommend it at this point.

3500mAh getm while their hot!!

amazon has a great deal going on right now for all of you who have been wanting bigger battery.

nice! might buy one of these. not sure if i want my sleek phone turning into an obese amoeba though. for 12 bucks shipped I can get another OEM battery. I think i might rather have two spare OEM batteries in my glovebox...

Would definitely not face any juice problems with that beast in it but It would be hard for me to adjust to the bulk of the phone afterwords I'm afraid.

Does anybody know how much thickness this will add to the phone?

3500mAh
ebay 8.00 free shipping

For all those wondering, I got one of these batteries. It is slightly larger then the HTC 2150 extended battery and slightly smaller then the Seidio 3500 battery. You can use the HTC extended cover but there will be a small gap around the sides. With the backing that comes with the battery, it makes the whole thing feel very big. The max thickness is really the same as the HTC extended case, but it is big all over instead of just over the battery.
In addition to the case being clunky, I really did not see any benefit to this battery. Even though it says 3500, it gets less life then the 2150. If you want a lot of life out of your phone, go with the 3500 battery from Seidio. It is expensive but you get what you pay for. No matter which of these three batteries you get, they are all going to add the same amount of thickness which is approximately doubling the size and weight of your phone.
If you want to increase the life of your phone and not increase the size, Seidio also makes a 1800 battery that is good. I am using the one I had from my Eris.

i got this Acase 3500 mah battery a few weeks ago, it's great! bump charging vastly improves its battery life also. usually it lasts me about more than 24 hours

I got it late last week, and have been running it for a while. Battery life is a LITTLE better than the 1750 Sedio I had in it before. Not enough to justify the huge size, though. I can make it all day on my 1750, anyway.

Wow. Kind of disappointed after hearing all this that I bought it. Mine is supposed to come on the 22nd so I'll post back with results. Hopefully for my experience, I get better life out of it than stock.

I sent the Acase back and picked up two of the OEM 1800 evo batteries, they fit the dinc fine.

Do those OEM 1800 Evo batteries do much better than the OEM DINC battery? You can get 2 of the Evo 1800 batteries for $40 on Amazon.

nexus s extended battery

I'm thinking of getting one but which one mugen 3300mh
Or sedio 3500 mh

get the seidio battery. this is the second extended battery i've bought from them. (had one for my evo 4g) so far it's been great. i can go at least 2 days on a single charge. just make sure you follow the instructions to get the most out of it. i charged mine over night and just let it completely die out. i'm using the matr1x kernel and i have it clocked at 1.2

thanks I was planning on getting 3500

you won't be disappointed.

edit: just looked it up. its a big 'un. anybody know if the 1750mah battery is good? i know its not 3300mh but is it better than stock?

I'm sure those cheap ones are fine, but I'm willing to pay a bit more to help ease the thoughts of a cheap battery....catching fire or exploding.

I just picked up a seidio 3500 from best buy today. Its big, reminds me of the old 5100 series Nokia from some years back but hoping for the best. I love the no slip coating on it though!

Anyone know where I should go to get one of the 3500mh batteries in Australia?

I got mine from Amazon. Here's their shipping policy for Australia:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=596190
I got mine yesterday and I love it so far. It does make the phone thicker, but I think the thickness is welcome, its easier to hold the phone to my ear with my shoulder. The battery cover is nice too. Just make sure you order the correct battery, the 4G is different from the regular NS and a few people left comments about it not fitting on Amazon.

Update - Im getting a solid two days of heavy use with this battery. I love not having to run to the charger. The second charge got me to 56hrs and I was at 4% IIRC. I forgot to take a screenshot though Ill take one on this charge. By this time of day Id already be down into the 60-70% range on the stock battery, but right now Im sitting at 81%
Side note - I also picked up the Seidio spring belt clip, and it fits perfectly with the extended battery due to the way the battery cover is. Its very sturdy and still gives you access to the lock button, volume rocker, charging port and headphone jack. Its also got a nice felt lining to protect the screen. I got it on eBay for $18 shipped.
Almost forgot to add, Im running NSCollab oc'd to 200 (screen off) 1200 (screen on) on demand.

Are there any extended batteries that will work with the stock back cover?
Just got a new seidio case and would like a new battery but don't want to have to lose the case for the extra battery.

Thats why I went with the Seidio. Its nowhere near as sexy as the stock battery cover, but the Mugen cover is much worse. Its just a big lump of plastic.

How different are the battery doors between the NS and the NS 4G? I need a couple of cheap extended batteries from eBay and the ones for the 4G are scarce and there are more choices for the NS.

Pretty sure its the exact same battery

Correct, its the same battery, but they use different doors if you go with an extended battery.
I accidently ordered the regular Nexus S extended from Amazon, luckily Amazon took care of me same day and re-routed the wrong package. <3 them.

That case will not work with the 3500. The 3500 requires a different backing that the case will not fit over.

I now only buy the Anker(sp?) batteries on ebay....they are cheap, and the only ones that appear to hold a full charge
many of the cheap 1900's I have bought are only like 900-1200
every Anker battery we have appears to be true capacity as listed

I got my 3500mAH battery finally. I can say that it adds bulk and weight. It also adds at the minimum twice the battery life. I would say I think it really is closer to three times as long. Yes it has a hump but is very comfortable to hold. With the new battery it is more like it should have been from the start with the original battery. You should not have any problems making it through a day of heavy use or two days light to normal use. This battery also takes along time to charge. I am very happy with the performance. Though I would still like to find a case the would fit the phone with this new hump on it. Lol

I would also like to find a case to fit the extended battery back. I just got this phone and the battery life is horrible even when compared to my HTC Inspire. I want to order the 3500mAH battery and extended back, but I also don't want my phone to be naked either. It's a toss up.

Darn I'm so tempted to buy the 3500 mah battery but I can't afford for it to blow up on me.. IF it does.... I traded my samsung infuse for this so I have no way in returning it. ):
Hopefully there's more people testing these batteries out so I can get one in a couple months.

Seido batteries are great!

I ordered this one: 1980mah Andida Spare Battery for LG Optimus 3D
I will test it out and report back my results to the forum.

Day 2 of using the aftermarket battery; So far so good. Took longer to charge than the stock battery, but that's on par with having a higher rated mAh.

I've been using the 3500mah extended battery since September 20th. So far, so good! Im getting double battery life and my phone hasn't exploded yet... lol... it does add some considerable bulk to the phone because of the custom backing that's required, but I personally think its worth it.

Trying to look for a decent extended battery

Just wondering if anyone bought one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/1X-Gold-420...880538?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item416dcac91a or bought a simular battery with higher mah then the stock but keeps the phone the same size. Not looking to put on one of those crazy hulking back covers.
Thanks in advance

Personally had issues with batteries from china/hong kong, also they have been know to lie about size of memory on memory cards and basically just labeling over stock batteries with fake labels. If you were wanting an extend battery I would suggest getting one from a reputable company such as mugen or another name brand company. I highly doubt a battery less than $20 will be any better than the oem. If there were a way for samsung to get a larger mah battery in that size they would have. I think your best bet is either getting another oem battery or purchasing an extended battery with the larger housing. IMO

Mugen is definitely the best battery wise, so if u can find a good case with or without wearing the back cover then I'd go with that if that's in your price range

How about a 2nd OEM battery to swap.

This is what I recommend.
I posted here showing a picture of the Onite extended battery I have and had someone comment on it showing that is wasn't fully snapped on to the back cover, well it was. The picture of the Mugen extended case, as provided in the same thread, has the official picture of the GNote2 with the extended case on it and it blatantly shows it not connect. Check out the thread.

I had great success with anker batteries on my note 1. Lasted as long or longer as the stock battery. Still being used by my son after 10 months of use and getting same duration out of them. Just got the qcell 3800mah extended battery for my wife's skyrocket and she has gone over 2 days on it now. Not sure about the lifespan yet as she has only had it for 2 weeks.

I used the 50% off code listed in the accessories forum to get a battery directly from Samsung for $25. Well spent for piece of mind and two batteries is likely more than I will ever need. Carry one as a spare and rotate them every few days or so.
Not sure of the code is still good.

That's a lie, I've had this battery in my n85, it was worse than the original, and was to be much better.

I have had great experiences with Hyperion and Qcell batteries. My mom is using my old GS3 and she says that the Qcell extended battery is still lasting her 2 days. There is no way that Mugen is 4 times better than either of those batteries. It does have NFC though. When my gs3 was new, no extended batteries had nfc, but they eventually added it. My guess is, in a month or two, Qcell will add nfc to their case. So if you buy one now and one when they add nfc you will have 2 extended batteries for half the cost of the Mugen. As soon as Hyperion comes out with a case for the extended battery, I am going to buy theirs.

True, i forgot abou that. Charger and battery for the sameprice of just the battery.
Also any battery that claims to have much more capacity (3800mAh - 4200mAh or more) in a standard size batter is BS. Everyone dreams of that mythical 5000mAh standard size battery, but it doesn't exist.
Unless I'm going camping for more than 3 days I can't see needing my standard battery with a standard spare.

I got this one from Amazon, And I've been super stoked!
(sorry, I'm too new, it stripped my URL)
The brand is Onite, and it was $24.98
it's a 6500 mAh battery, and cover. I've been wailing on wifi and wireless data all day while streaming pandora Non-Stop to my bluetooth beats, and at 10:42 PM, I still have 48% left.
This is the first phone I've had that I can talk with customers all day, and not have to put it back on the charger once.
A full day with heavy usage, and battery to spare at bedtime? Winner in my book!
