Hey guys, just saw this battery in bestbuy's website. It says 3200 mah and from the looks of it, its not gigantic that you would need to get rid of your back cover. It uses lithium ion polymer instead of the regular lithium ion. Here's the link.

Anybody using this yet?

It actually looks like it comes with it's own cover... hence the "fitted door" that it states on the packaging

oh yeah youre right. lol. thought it was different from all the other 3k+ mah batteries.. this sucks.. lol
Eh no worries, good looking out though
I just ran out and bought this. Just like the extended life battery from the same company for my epic, the battery door doesn't completely snap shut securely. I found the hard clear gel argyle case that sprint sells that I had laying around. I did some rough estimates on where to cut the case for the extended portion of the battery. This was my first case for it but I replaced it with the black gel that sprint sells. The clear case was difficult to get over the corners under normal circumstances. The gel doesn't give much when stretching it over the phone. I thought it might help the extended case keep closed and less likely for the cover to pop off inadvertently. The volume up down and power buttons don't align with the molded areas on the case so I cut those out the right size and place where the buttons are. I cut the big square out on the gel where the battery door hump is.
It doesn't look factory done but it doesn't look like complete **** either. The cut up gel is serving its purposes. It's protecting the corners and edges of the phone and it's keeping the battery door firmly in place. I will have to give it a full overnight charge when I get home. If the performance is anything like the battery for the epic, it should be like 1.5x more life. The ratings aren't accurate. I will be very surprised if it doubles my runtime. Btw, I use the internet heavily during my day. I will report back when I see how it performs in a few days.
thanks
thanks guys))

Does this battery actually do what it promises? I've heard some bad experiences with third battery suppliers.

there's all the links. For $20, I like it. No support for extended battery, but stil nice. You have to open it to use the screen or keyboard, but I'm tough on my phone, and this compliments my Toughbook well.
Thought I would share.
I have the same case and like it a lot.
Seidio case for mogul - My favorite case*
Hey guys,
Not sure if you've seen this case, but I figured I'd post it.
http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=797
You can pick from a rubberized, aluminum, clear, or hybrid rubber-clear case.
You don't have to open the case to use the keyboard, so its perfect.
It doesn't have a clear plastic cover like yours, but I find that clear screen protectors from bestbuy do the job (i'm pretty rough on my phone as well).
sigh, still no case for the extended battery. Kind of getting tired of looking every day for something that will do the same as these cases. I can't understand why no one is producing a case like the seidio one for an extended battery. Does anybody know of one of those types of cases?
Unfortunatly thats true for just about every accessory out there for the 6800...
Even the car mounts have issues with Extended batteries.
I guess it has to do with the fact they are making these for the most common setups people have and until Extended batteries sell as many units as the phone does we are $#!^ out of luck...
i guess you have the super extended battery? not just the regular extended battery..
that things a beast.. i have the regular extended battery and love it. how's the super extended going for you?
when i bought my battery from seidio, they didnt have the super one. maybe now that they do, they'll make a special case as well.
I had the 2800 MAH battery, selling it for $25 and got the Mugen 1800MAH stock fit one. Mogen Power had a robbery though, so still waiting...
From email:
"Due to a break-in on last week in our European distribution centre, we lost most of our stock, processed shipments and computer equipment. Currently, we are arranging replacement stock from our factory and other distribution centres, which is expected to arriving this week. We expect to dispatch your battery at the end of this week. Our sincere apologies for the inconvenience and we will do our utmost to dispatch your order as soon as possible. You will receive an email with shipment details as soon as your parcel has been sent."
I have the seidio 3200 battery, i usually go about 2 days without charging and a 3-4 hour phone call drops me down to about 78%. But, yes, the thing is big and no, there are no cases, gelskins or anything else for this thing.
Hmm case does it's job. I was just up on a ladder in the Data Center at work... 12 feet up with a metal floor. Dropped the phone, it tumbled down a few rungs and hit hard on one corner against the floor after about 6 feet. It bent the case a bit, but all it well. It hit the bottom left corner on the screen side.
Yep I have the 3200 battery and it's funny...the 3200 with the battery cover from seidio is actually thinner than the 2200 battery I got from Ebay! LOL
I am waiting to buy the car dock from seidio to see if it works better with the extended battery. What I have now is a standard padded vice mount which is problematical for two reasons.
One the depth of the unit due to the battery and two the padding tends to press buttons when your putting the unit into the holder...
I love the monster battery!
And for those who wonder the battery comes with the cover when you order from seidio.
Looks like this case;

Sure does. Cool!
Has anyone used this flip case. I was thinking about getting, but wanted some opinions first.

I just noticed that Ipaq has this case for extended batteries. I don't know if that's a new addition or has been there all along, but it's good to know that there's at least one case of this type that can handle extended batteries.
just saw this on ppcgeeks thought I'd post it here for anyone looking. It's "coming soon" but not sure about ETA:
http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=993
So its ONLY 2 months late from when they said it would be out. But just the same, good to see it is ALMOST out.
now Shipping! Woot!
Too bad it would cost me 100 bucks for the package. 70 for the extended battery, and another 35 for the case. Not sure I could justify dropping that for my cell phone.
Has anyone tried any of the batteries from Seidio. They are offering an extended battery of 3200 MAH. I don't want to try one of these if there is a chance of frying my 6800.

So, let me see if I understand your question, in a forum post about the extended hard case for the seidio battery, you wonder if anyone has tried any of the batteries?
Why would any of us be discussing the hard case for the SEIDIO extended battery if we didn't already have the battery to get the hard case for????
Do you imagine we're all going to buy the hard case for the extended battery and use it with the stock battery?
I have the Seidio Battery...
It will not FRY your phone!

Well let’s see!
Maybe because it is nothing more than a hard case.
or
Because there is no requirement stating that one must have the SEIDIO extended battery to use the SEIDIO hard case.
or
Maybe I just thought that because it was apparent that some of the viewers in this thread may have some knowledge about extended batteries and since I have heard about aftermarket batteries/accessories that have caused problems in the past thereby voiding the warranty and the fact that to replace this phone would be pricey it might just be a good idea to ask those with experience in the extended battery arena about the integrity of the product before I purchase.
I don't want a $579.00 (retail replacement) iron on my hands!
mr.ellsworth
Dude, it's a HARDCASE ONLY FOR THE EXTENDED BATTERY. Why would anyone buy the hardcase for the extended battery IF they didn't have the extended battery in the first place?
If you wanted to use the "slim" hardcase then that would make sense, but this is ONLY for users who have the EXTENDED battery to buy this hard case.
Just nearly a week and a half ago I placed my first order to get a slim rubber case and clip..and the day I saw that the extended case was in I ordered the battery and case..got it today and so far nothing but good results. I've had it on for what seems to be like 7 hours and it shows 80% still remaining...BUT during a good 4 or 5 of those hours i had bluetooth on, wifi on and logged onto windows live messanger..it didn't budge. Its not that much bigger with this battery and with somedays not knowing if i'll be working 8 hours or 14 this helps out alot! It does add a bit of weight to it but i'm willing to give that extra weight and thickness for all that my phone is capable of doing.

Well, check it out. I'm the kind of person to take care of my junk. I went to my god fathers heart surgery, and that morning in the parking lot i dropped my phone (1st time) cause you know, it's damn slippery. I was juggling other crap in my hands as well. The phone dropped, back cover popped off no problem.
It wasn't until later i noticed that the left msg record button was jammed, i set that button as 'alt+tab.' crap. I tried fixing it, it proved impossible with my methods.
I used my insurance and got a new phone for $50. That was late 2007. Just this past wednesday, about 4-5 months after with this new phone, i dropped it at work from a very low height. What are the odds that the same freaking button broke? Fook it, right? I can learn to live with it. But i still want the case. Even if you got this phone for $200, a $40 investment to protect it is worth it. I am a power user running 10 emails through flexmail at all times, amongst other things such as my exchange work email. So i will not only get this case but the extra capacity battery.
If you don't think $40 is worth covering $200, then you probably have problems. If this had been available when i bought the phone, i would have gladly paid $40 over $50 and the hassel i went through setting up the new phone.
thanks for the great find gand!
So after having this setup for nearly a week I am quite pleased. From having last plugged it in on Friday for about a 45 minutes it lasted till sunday afternoon at about 4:30 where it showed 30%. Given i was barely talking on the phone and sent only a dozen or two texts...the standby time still amazed me. I google mapped a few things as well..I definately reccomend this.
Ok so I ordered:
3200MAH SUPER EXTENDED BATTERY FOR PPC 6800 ($64.95 USD)
RUBBERIZED CASE/HOLSTER COMBO FOR EXTENDED XV 6800 / PPC 6800 ($49.95 USD)
It came out to a total of $127.15 (USD)
The battery comes with a cover as shown in the picture, but unlike the picture it says seidio on the back of it, very cool!
The 'rubberized case' with holder is pretty cool. It's not as 'grippy' as i thought it would be, but definitly an improvement over the original finish. I am more confident with it in my hand.
I've begun charging the battery that supposedly has 60% charge according to WM.
I also use my phone quite a bit so i'll be reporting in on whether this battery was worth it or not.
Worth noting is that unlike many others, i had no problems at all installing the battery case cover, nor the rubber covers. Just be patient and look at what you're doing and you should be ok.
So far 100% satisfied, will update in a few weeks.
not wanting the extreme bulk of the 3200 battery, i went ahead and got a 1650 battery instead...BIG MISTAKE, don't get it, I don't notice any battery level change, I went about with my usual business hopefully ending the day with at least 30-40% (I generally start using the phone at 9-10 till maybe 8-9) at night but instead, as usual it dropped to 0 and dies on me. With a case and the battery i forked up 108 bucks- so pay the extra 20 bucks and get the 3200 instead, i regret not doing so!

I use the Mugen 3600mAh battery and Seido hard case; in three months of use, no one has ever commented on the thickness of my phone. It fits (fills) the hand better for a more secure grip. But yes, the Seido "rubberized" case isn't all that grippy, so I recommend plastering it with e-grips appliques.
Seidio extended battery case hardware hack for macro lens and sunshield.
The pictures will show what a sweet hack this is. I'd wanted both a sun shield and a macro lens, and when I got this new battery and the case that came with it I saw the possibilities right away.
First I eyeballed the length and width of the slider that I would need (about 9/16" by 7/16" )
Then I carved a channel the thickness of my slider in the large lower lip.
The opposing channel was constructed from three layers of the same black plastic sheet I used for the slider.
Cleaned out any excess glue from the track, checking it with the slider by hand.
Then I temporarily spot glued the three layer channel to the case with the slider in place to see if I needed to make any adjustments to the width of the slider.
After making adjustments I glued the three layer channel to the case with the slider in place.
Now I was ready to make the hole for my macro lens (You want to make it centered with respect to the camera) I just eyeballed it. Made a small hole with a drill, then with a round needle file made it as concentric with the hole in the case for the camera as I could by hand.
Having stripped numerous machines and devices over the years I had a little selection of small lenses.
I chose a small magnifier of a size a little bit larger than the hole I'd filed in the slider and glued it in place.
When that dried I put the case back on the phone and I moved the slider to the macro position and made sure it was centered correctly. Then a sliver of the same black plastic sheet was carefully glued in the channel as a block to stop the slider at that position.
That was pretty much it. I used 5 minute clear epoxy which allowed me to clean out glue that was in bad places while it was still tacky.

Just giving a heads up in case anybody has seen these and thought about buying one.
HTCPedia.com is selling an "Extended Battery Fit Hard Rubber Case for HTC Droid Incredible." I'm new, so I can't post the link.
I purchased one of these since I currently have one of the extended batteries in my Dinc and haven't seen another case that works with it. I received it on Friday and was a little shocked. This is NOT a case designed to fit the Incredible with an Extended battery. It is a standard case manually cut to open the back up so the extended battery can fit through it. As if that wasn't bad enough, not only did it not fit...but the cut job was really crappy. Squared off corners instead of rounded, double cuts in some places that left slivers of the material sticking out, etc. If you are planning on getting one of these you are better off just buying the standard case and cutting it yourself. You'll save money and likely do a better job.
HTCPedia has not responded back to my emails yet either as to if this was a mistake or honestly what they are trying to sell. I'll let you know if they respond with anything.
Here's the link for the case.
The quality in the pictures looks pretty bad to me, would have been a pretty good indication of the quality you'd receive. It's also only made for the 2150 extended battery/back.
That case is the one verizon sells look at the red one it has the same design inside as the one from verizon!!!! Haha so they just cut out the back piece!!!

Yup, just cut it out. I did get a call back from HTCPedia just a few minutes ago and they are giving me a full refund. So that at least makes me feel a little better about the whole deal.

Does it work with the car or media dock?
Sorry mate not sure, i wont get the dock, car mount or otterbox case untill a reliable source in Aus gets these for me which will be months away.
The Dock has a removable base that the phone sits in so I would probably think it should fit, I remember some1 else having some snap on cover for the D3 which worked in the Media Dock. Not sure about the car dock tho.

Does anybody know if the OtterBox can be used with the extended battery? Also, does it make the phone REALLY bulky? How's the top row of the keyboard?
I was expecting chunkier, but I think I'd still rather use my phone "naked"

You got it to fit with the extended battery? I received my Otterbox earlier today and I can't seem to get it.
Just got the Otterbox today and I can confirm it does fit with an extended battery. However the battery, which also came today, is a cheapo 2200mAh from amazon. It a bit bigger than the standard not sure if its the same size as the extended. I use it with the standard back and is not bulging out. Hopefully this is an extended and not labeled incorrectly.
[edit] This battery is not getting hot while charging. Its 77 and the standard it usually over 100. Though it may be misreported.
Let me know how the battery does compared to the stock! Mainly if its lasting longer than it or if the cheap batttery isn't worth the money.

Well the battery's not likely 2200mAh. It gets about the same life as the stock 1500. Still worth the 5 bucks I paid. It's GTMax brand if anyone's interested.
I'm kind of mad I bought the shell/holster they offered, thing's great. But, this looks badass, lol.

The vzw holster is crap as far as i'm concerned. When I got a replacement for a vibrate motor problem I noticed how the new one was much more sturdy when sliding out the keyboard. The case caused it to come loose. The clip near the back of the front camera is too tall and the screen pulled upwards.
Decided to take off the battery cover and see how it fits in the Otterbox. There's no problems it even feels a bit smaller almost as though there's no case on the back. Even tried dropping it from about a foot to see if the battery or sim or sdcard would fall out, didn't move at all. So there should be no problem with an extended battery. Someone at androidforums cut the battery cover to make the extended battery fit. Doesn't sound like a very good idea but I guess it's another option.
Hmm. I have no issues with the vzw one *knock on wood* and its on my hip all day. I have bumped into a few doors at work directly on it (as well as some stupid people in the metro) its held its ground so far.

Nice. Just wish they had it in
The OtterBox case can be found on amazon for around $25 shipped, it's well worth it. Best case I ever had for a phone. I got it to work with the Motorola extended battery, I just modified the stock battery cover with a dremel and alot of patience.
How much was actually 'shaved'? Did it go through the cover all the way and expose the insides at all?

Oh yeah almost the whole battery is exposed, but the inside of the otter box is silicon and it seal everything up and holds it tight. The original battery cover sacrificed his life so that I could use my extended battery. I still have the extended battery cover if I ever choose to take off the ottterbox. There's a thread at droidforums.net that I posted pics and all in.
I've written a more general audience review of this battery for my Amazon review, if you want to read that text, it's in the YouTube video description. For now though, here's one for here.
Powerbear appear to be the first to actually launch an extended battery for the G4 on Amazon.ca. At least at the time of writing, the only other relevant thing I could find on there was the Hyperion extended case... just the case, no battery. Anyway, the Powerbear model was only $35, and I was missing my Anker extended battery for my Galaxy S3, so I bought it.
The battery seems well made enough... certainly doesn't strike me as dangerous or going to fail soon... we'll have to see how long it actually lasts. The backing plate has a nice texture on it, but I put the phone straight into the extended case, which was included. The hexagonal pattern is attractive and the case is that nice smooth matt plastic for the most part, that you can still grip but also get in and out of your pocket easily enough.
Battery life has gone from poor (like 6hrs on the stock battery, if that) to spectacular... over 24 hours seems easily reachable without changing any habits. A subjective test over 12 hours of medium (or slightly under medium) use today has seen only a 40% drop in battery life. Yesterday, straight out of the box, it took almost 17hrs to go from 62% to 4% (all of this according to the LG G4's battery stats, on MM, completely stock and unrooted).
Overall I'm happy with it. Price seems very fair for what you get. I like the case and back plate and I can go back to not thinking about battery life.

Thanks for this. Looks nice.
I've got two Extended Batteries 1 6000mah and 1 7700mah. Now they might make the phone a little thick but not that thick (Just look at my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/accessories/2-extended-batteries-test-t3320662) I'm testing the 7700mah one with standard usage and we'll Edit my Thread once done
Is the case the 'sticky' TPU that gets stuck in your pockets/turns pockets inside out and attracts lint (like Trident cases) or a smoother TPU that does not mess with your pockets.

Edit: Ok my case didn't have anything on it
Now y'all do know the charger that comes with the phone can't charge these Extended Batteries?! You need a Charger like this to charge the Batteries http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010P2BPT2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00
Once mine needs a charge that's what i charge it with because if you charge with a charger then the battery isn't fully charge (Even though it says so) but it'll discharge fast you'll see
I got the powerbear a week ago and the battery life is amazing. I don't know what that post is about the chargers. Mine charges fine.
