amor_istore - 1800 mAH Battery - Picture Gallery - Droid Incredible Accessories

Well I just got 2 of them in, and took some good shots of them. Marking them in the pictures.
Check the gallery for the links. Also, the fake battery doesn't fit with the normal back case.
*note* I knew I wasn't exactly getting legit batteries, so $11.98 wasn't a big loss

lololololololololololo!!!!!111!11!

This battery blows, it really does. I want to try the other 1800 mAh variety I've seen around. Instinct tells me it's probably garbage as well, but it's worth a shot I suppose. I think I'm going to start a battery review thread for the Incredible as soon as I get around to testing the ones I have (stock, OEM 1500 mAh, this one and the OEM 2150 mAh). Too many people have the same questions about the same batteries.

I like this idea a lot
HTC Incredible

I also ordered this battery. It's about the same as the stock battery life for me. I may try to order an OEM 1500 here soon. I heard the 1800's on amazon are legit (not OEM, but work). But they don't allow you to just order the battery. You have to get 2, plus a charger.

Yuppers - I also just got my 2 and to be honest they kinda fit ;-)
I can get them into the phone and snap the top and bottom of the rear cover down but not the sides. I have been using a BodyGlove case that snaps shut so it holds things together. Since I am using the hard shell BG case I may try to remove the back plate completely and see what happens....but like you said $12 is not life changing.
For those that LIED about these batteries simply 'fitting' with the rear case and working - please do me a favor and go screw yourselves.....liars.

I was able to get my 1800 from that ebay seller to fit. I hate to push a bit harder to snap down the sides, but it fit. But they are knockoffs, so I doubt there is much statistical research into making them all exactly the same size.

Mine fit. And they work better than the piece of crap that came with my phone. Sorry if it doesn't work for you. I use my phone all day and I move around too much to charge it. I have four of these batteries. I'd say on average, the original gives me probably 6 hours, where the "fake" gives me 8 to 9. Change my battery once a day and never have to worry about charging. That's with heavy usage. And it was only $5.98.
Call me a liar if you want, just sounds like jealousy to me.

Today I got 8 hours out of it and im at 50% now. Pretty good after first charge and for $8

14 hours, 16%...
Only complaint so far is the back of the phone fits toooooo snug and therefore my case fits more snug and now it puls on my screen protector and peels it up.

I just ordered another 1500, looks like HTC sells black only batteries now.
They say 'HTC Innovation'.

Just a cut and paste of reply in another topic:
I bought two 1800 with a charger off of ebay for 15 dollars. They fit in the regular case (just barely) but they maybe last a few hours longer than a stock one. I can make it through 8 hours at work now without having to plug in. Oh well, I now have two extra batteries I can quick swap and go in case of a pinch..
It does fit in mine. Not sure if its and updated version to those of you who say it doesnt fit though.

FWIW my "oem evo" 1500mAh $4 Ebay battery did pretty well.

I bought two of these batteries from this seller and I got them to fit. And as far as them being crap, I went for over 48 hours on just one of these batteries with medium use. Try doing that with a stock battery.

I bought the HTC Express 1800 battery and it's working fine for me, and it fits in the phone. Yes, a bit snug but I don't have any issues with my case or screen protector.

HTC 2150 + Dremel + VZW Red Case

I got my HTC 2150mAH battery today from VZW. It's HUGE, but I've been thinking about how to make it more streamlined since I heard about it. Enter my dremel work.
Dremel out the rear of the VZW snap case to match the bulge on the new battery door. Sand it down smooth, and here you have it. It's pretty nice feeling, and it doesn't bulge out too much. It's still bulkier than before, however if you had a protective case already it isn't much of a difference.
Now, my phone looks good and holds a charge longer.

NOTE:
Decided to meet some of the demand and offer my modding to you guys.
I will do this on a per request basis for $45 including the case, and $25 if you mail me the case yourself. This includes shipping the case to you (you pay for shipping to me). If I grab the case myself, I simply run to the VZW store and pick on up, and this saves you on shipping to me.
PM me if you want me to do this. Just give me about 5 days or so turnaround time, as I have full time obligations elsewhere.
where did you order this battery? i want one?
Best looking one I've seen yet. You should buy a bunch of those cases and modify them for sale.
At $20-$30 per case, plus the time to modify them it wouldn't be worth it to both buyer and myself. If anyone wants, send me the money and I can do it on a need basis, but I'm not going to stock these.
nice work man!
I did something very similar with mine!!!! I just cut the back out of the black silicone case so the battery sticks through the back...it looks 10x better now and I will be keeping my 2150 because of it. If people want pics of this let me know.

Could you post up some pictures? The red case looks good but I'm wondering if the black case looks even better since the the phone is already black and it might blend in better.
Could you post pics I have the same case, but I'm iffy about getting the battery.
What happens to the antenna in the modified case?
I was told after checking the original back casing that the antenna is part of the backing. Now that the case has been altered did anyone think to look where the antenna is laying now. You have to look very close at the inside of the back of the case to see that the antenna was embedded and camouflaged. How is the reception?
I noticed that there are cheap Dremels on sale online. Is it ok to use a crappy cordless one for this task, since there really isn't much material to remove?
I don't have my other camera at work so I had to use the camera on the phone using a mirror. I'll try to remember to take a better pictures or pictures sometime. It looks nice though, it doesn't look silly anymore.

Verizon is accepting phone orders of the battery. I recieved mine yesterday it feels great not having to run to a charge 49% battery ( 6:57am last charge to now 11:13pm )
that's 16 hours of moderate use and still no urgency to plug it in lmao
No takers on the Antenna question.
Got the new battery and case backing yesterday. Sure enough the antenna is mounted covertly in the center of the back of the case on the inside as is the standard one. So if the stylish have decided to cut away this area what trick was employed to replace the Antenna? How is the reception? Also, the idea of shaving down the power button is neat. Does it have a height limitation? It should have been done in the original design since it can be bumped when inside of a case which will keep initiating the screen power. Battery drain!!!!
that looks badass!!!!

OEM HTC Extended Battery Cover for HTC Hero

I did a search on Amazon today and found an extended battery cover that appears to be OEM. I couldn't find any mention of it anywhere on the forums. Does anyone know if this is the real deal? What battery would fit under this cover? The big Seidio one maybe? Or did HTC release their own that I can't find?
I can't post the link because I am a new member. A search on Amazon for the following will pull it up though...."OEM HTC Extended Battery Cover for HTC Hero (Sprint)"
search the web
mugen-power-batteries
and sprint htc hero battery and cover is there for like 75 bucks
Don't buy Mugen or Seidio, they are rip offs.
Buy this one:

It's a great battery, and if you want to see how it looks here's from the other thread:
iviyth0s said:
Well the 3200mAh battery didn't have a compatible cover (that fits) but somehow vinyl skin cover can fit around it and the whole phone, even though it's only 1790mAh actual, the battery life is awesome, I've gotten 1.5 days with regular (but not crazy) usage. Definitely alot better than standard, and btw I'm overclocked so the unoverclocked may be even more.
The 2600mAh battery (true capacity unknown) seems to be pretty much equal with the "3200mAh" it but came with a compatible cover.
"3200 mAh" with and without the little vinyl skin

Either is great but obviously there'd be no back cover for the one if I didn't have a vinyl skin cover (the battery was actually for a GSM Hero but fits the same contacts). I recommend them both

Seems to be like 150% or better, but it's hard to say from personal experience because when I started using the extended batteries I also started overclocking (which lowers battery life) so, it could be ALOT better if you don't. But even still I really like the extra battery life I've gotten.
The best part is that the extended batteries aren't much more than the standard
I just ordered one of these... can't beat it for $11.97 shipped. Can't wait to get it and see what the life is on it.
I bout some rechargable lithium batteries for my xbox360, supposed to be extended life, but after two recharges, they went downhill fast. You might get lucky, but usually you get what you pay for.

I haven't had any issues with any of the batteries I've purchased, I treat them well and they treat me well.
And I highly doubt one gets what they pay for when they spend $80 on a battery, well no I take that back... Mugen and Seidio do turn a hefty profit

Powerskin

http://www.amazon.com/PowerSkin-Pro...AVXG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1321914547&sr=8-1
Has anyone tried this thing? Just wondered if anyone had any thoughts on it.
I haven't but i have heard its great. Pretty much a 3k mAh battery. Most just use the stock battery and then use the power skin or vice versa since it pops in and out relatively easy
Wish I could afford that (Laid off). Slightly annoyed that the phone can't keep his charge for more than 12 hours with the use I make of it which I guess is low to med-high use.
Does it work on the Nexus S (not 4G)? I have the i9020a, to be more exact.

You should look into undervolting the phone and using another kernel, if you haven't already. You can get great battery life doing this.

I have this case, it's not 3k mah... its 1500... its nice but it makes the phone a little bulky and for that reason i only use it when im going out and know im going to have to charge it... it charges it when the phone is dying... or you can leave it on while the phone is in it and it will charge while the phone is dying
EDIT: official website so you can see the details better http://power-skin.com/battery-cases/ap1510i91/samsung-nexus-s-4g.html
I had one. Returned.
It is an extra 1500mah battery that is just used to recharge your phone. It worked pretty well if you are going out and need more juice. I feel like it wasn't double the battery power but more like an extra 75% or so of the original battery.
It makes the phone more than twice as thick and you cannot really tell the remaining battery percentage because it is two separate batteries, granted there is a few leds on the back of the case to estimate the powerskin's remaining power, it is just a pita.
If you are using the case to charge and want to plug in some headphones, you better hope that you have some with a very slim connector (like the ones made for iPhones) because in my experience regular plugs are too thick and you have to take the case off to use.
Also the USB on the case is only used for charging, you cannot sync or use any other USB functions unless you take the case off.
I cannot really recommend this case because I was using it only when I needed extra juice. If I wanted something to charge my phone in a pinch I would buy something like: http://www.amazon.com/Duracell-Instant-Charger-Lithium-universal/dp/B002FU6KF2 (Not necessarily this one, but something like it.)
If you want something with double the battery capacity of the NS and dont mind a little extra bulk (not as much as the powerskin) I really recommend this http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-Innoce...6C/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1322030905&sr=8-10
The other problem with using the Powerskin and the Seidio battery is NFC will not work when using them. The powerskin blocks the NFC antenna and the Seidio backplate does not have a NFC antenna.
Anyways, long reply but I hope I helped you make a decision. =)

I meant pretty much 3k when you include the stock battery. He power skin is only 1500 mAh by itself
decided to buy this cuz i wanted to protect the phone AND have an extended battery rather than carry around a phone and external battery pack. i hate the fact that there is only one iphone a year and a BAGILLION accessories for it, one which i envied for a long time is the extended battery case! The idea behind it is very simple since the micro usb connector is still kinda loose on some slack of cable. one of those "WHY DIDNT I THINK OF THAT" ideas... cant wait for it

I liked the powerskin and found that with it, I was able to achieve slightly under 100% increase in longevity. I assume the inefficiency is due to this acting as a charger rather than a true replacement battery. As you can see in my review, though, the thickness gain is quite noticeable.
Perhaps the most dramatic picture from my review:

Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
OK so I've had it a hand full of days now and I've got to say it does a decent job. Like stated by others, the extra battery is roughly 75-80% of the OEM. Not bad, but maybe it gets a lil better as time rolls on. The bulk ain't bad after the first day, I kind of like that it is now a self defense unit (KO a mofo!)
Only gripe is that the skin is a little sticky when pulling out of the pocket, which in turn sometimes manages to slightly jiggle the micro USB connector and turns the battery pack on. Doesn't happen much, but is upsetting when I have 80%+ battery OEM and then I accidently turn the power skin on. This also means whenever u connect the micro usb to the phone the pack automatically turns on, so if i dont need it running i need to make sure i turn it off after applying the skin to the phone. Other than that this thing is exactly what I expected
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
I just got mine yesterday and I love it, the thickness increase makes it feel like a more hardy phone and for me it makes it easier to use. Basically is a phone charger for people on the go, anyone who thought this would actually replace the battery should of read the details a bit more. My one worry is that the rubber that holds the phone to the battery will wear badly but only time will tell.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
The picture looks good. Somethings we just forgot how thin the smart phones are... an extra skin is just as thick as an old phone.
well after 2 weeks the port broke for charging the case and phone. I sent it in for a refund, as the quality of the port is not very good. Shame because I loved this case.

Looks like they dont want you talking on the phone with this thing..
On a side note: how do these things actually work? Does it constantly keep your phone in charging mode (until the external battery is drained)? or does the phone use your main battery, THEN switch to the external battery (or vice versa)? (sorry I have never used one of these on any phone...only seen them for crapple phones)
Just ordered one will update when tested out.....

I don't think it is a good idea using a case like this since it does nothing to protect the front glass edges of the Note 2 since it is snapping on primarily through the back. If you drop your Note 2 with this on, there is a good chance it will be against the front edges of the glass display and the notable amount of added weight increases the chance of cracking. It is much better to have a standard case that provides a lip and get a cheap $10 spare battery.

I went and checked out the one that ATT has(also listed on web site). It's $99 retail and the battery is in the face cover. The cover is extremely thick and heavy. To my surprise when I went to fold the cover close it wouldn't close. the battery/cover hits the screen of the phone. If you press hard it will lie flat but there is no clasp to close it. The guy at the store couldn't figure it out either. It seemed like a totally terrible design.

I have had a similar one for a while now , in white color costs about 30$ here in singapore , its quite good and sturdy , the drawback mainly is that you cant remove the stylus when you have this case on . but otherwise the case and the battery is good hope we get a better design with the option to remove the spen or hook it up somewhere in the case should also be fine.. instead of in the phone..
Found this by accident while searching for a charger. $25 + $2 shipping. Available in black or white. Built in kickstand.

I just ordered the case that the OP posted. I will let you know as well how I like it. It isn't the perfect design but for the basic functionality of having an extra battery built into the case is good enough for me. The factory battery is already pretty good if you know how to maximize the life of it. I won't use the case everyday, but only during those times when I really need a extra long battery life and don't have access to a charger. And for just under $25 it looks like a good deal to me
Thanks for sharing OP

Looking carefully at the picture at the posted URL, it looks like there is a little dimple where the mic is so you can talk. But it appears to cover the Spen completely.

Power Case 3800mAh

Has anyone bought this power case for G2 yet?

Can you give me a review?

Be careful, if the batteries aren't properly made, they can go off (if it has a bad overcharge protection circuit). In India many people used to buy fake/duplicate Nokia batteries and had/have similar results, giving Nokia a bad name in some cases. Not often but definitely occurs. Just saying because it doesn't even mention the brand.
Better off with zerolemon battery and dual layer case.
Sent from my LG-D800 using XDA Free mobile app
original battery is best
Do not take the risk
wonder if it fits the Verizon model.
btw the zerolemon one has issues with obstructing the camera and the buttons not working very well. (at least from the few reviews I can find)
hmmm if someone has the zerolemon one can you let me know if the portion around the camera is able to be dremel'd away a bit?
Might have to get one and see if I can 3d scan-edit-3d print a new one at a friends house

That would be so epic! Keep us posted please! Lol
I contacted zerolemon about the case.
Looking at pictures from reviews and amazon/their own site, I have a feeling they changed the case around the camera.
the reviews I have seen show it more of a contoured shape but the one I see on amazon its square and a little further away from the camera.
If they changed it I may order one and see, if it blocks the camera I will see about dremelling around the contour and see if I can "fix" it lol.
I've got a Kinect set up and ill 3d scan the parts before hand and look at modifying for a 3d printer.
Ok got a response from zerolemon.
Hello,
Thanks for your question. The camera part of the case has been widened to fix the obstruction issue, but the power button doesn't change.
So the camera is fixed. No dremel needed.
The button issue might not be a deal breaker, I usually use knock on to wake it. Volume could be the clincher.
I'm gonna think about getting it since its half the cost of the mugen one and I like how the zerolemon one doesn't have the plug dangling.
According to the video review the verizon g2 does fit.
I know this is a kind of old thread but seriously, the pics on that eBay listing look horribly photoshopped. I would be very cautious buying this case. Look closely at the buttons, and why is the entire case clearly visible, except the top. The top part of the case is extremely blurry. I don't know, something looks fishy about it.
Hi Guys Here is the same one but cheaper.
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/3800...tery-Flip-Case-For-LG-G2-Free/1826951488.html
In a couple of weeks I'm going to give it a try the price makes me doubt of the product.
I have two ZeroLemon G2 battery cases (the seller sent an extra one and never responded when I emailed them), the second one is unopened. I'd be willing to sell for cheap if anyone is interested. It takes some work to get the case on correctly (specifically the volume and power buttons), but is otherwise about what you'd expect for such a product.

Have you been able to use the power button with the case on? I never got that to work

Id be willing to buy the extra one. What design is the back around the camera? Round or square?

The one I'm using is square, so the unopened one is presumably square as well. I'll have photos up shortly. I'd be asking $20+shipping (I'm near Cleveland, OH). I can't imagine having a need for 7000 mah worth of G2 batteries in my house. The only time I ever use the case is when I'm driving Uber, I like to have Waze, Dash (connected to a Bluetooth OBD adapter), and audio going w/o having cords in the way, and that's the only way to do it.
I will pm you with details. Btw i live in michigan. Howdy neighbor. Haha

Sounds good
Anyway, for the rest of you, here are some photos so you can get an idea of what it looks like:

This is everything that comes in the package, minus a couple of items. One is the glued-on screen protector. I didn't like it so I took it off. The other thing is there is a backing plate with styrofoam on the other side. This goes in where the battery would be if you are choosing to use the phone and case by itself, without the battery. I don't know where I placed mine, and I can't really see ever needing it anyway.
G2 case next to my old Nexus 4.
The camera and power buttons from the outside. I apologize for the quality of the shot, that bathroom mirror is dirty. I guess I could have just used the Nexus 4 to take a better picture, or my QX-10 attachment, but I was lazy.
Why would you need to use this? In my opinion it makes phone too big which isn't as comfortable at all!
Durability. I work where it can be dropped on a concrete floor easily. Or if in my pocket crushed. Plus the extra battery is nice.
Thank you Sean35. Just got the case today. The Verizon g2 does fit with a little extra efort. Agree the screen protector is coming off lol. Only issue i have is the "incompatible charger" bug. I am rooted running a custom kit kat rom so gotta figure that out.
