Droid 3 Battery Same As Droid & Droid 2? - Motorola Droid 3

Just wondering if anyone knows if the battery for the Droid 3 is the same as the one for the OG Droid / Droid 2. I have a few of the extended batteries from my original Droid and thought it'd be cool if I could use them in a D3 if I bought one.
Thanks!

Definitely not the same. Was a little cranky about that at first. Had an extra battery and standalone battery charger for my OG Droid. Gave them to my sister along with the phone. lol

Its not the same. THe Droid 3 battery is slimmer and taller.

optional extended battery cover

any chance has anyone put another cover on the back of the bionic besides the otterbox that was dremmeled?... im really not liking the the backing that comes with the extended.
Recently just bought an extended and waiting in the mail for it... even ended up buying an inductive to experiment and take apart to see if it would fit. Maybe wondering if we can take out the back plate and put on a incipio and use that instead
I have the door that comes with the vzw extended battery. Its not bad at all

Bionic Or Thunderbolt

Hey guys Verizon needs to replace my Thunderbolt and after so many replacements they offered me a bionic. Would it be a good choice over my Bolt? We have S-off and Unlocked bootloader.
Pros of bionic:
Dual core 1.0ghz
1gb ram
Lots of great devs
Cons:
Stock has blur
Locked bootloader
And it's moto so probably no stock ics for about a year

another PRO for Bionic is killer long battery life since the .901 update, .902 is killer battery life also.
I uses to have the thunderbolt. The bionic is a much better phone.

Yeah this one's a no brainer. Get the bionic.
Regarding the above cons:
• Hexec workaround was recently posted allowing for custom kernels. This was really the last issue caused by the locked bootloader. In less than a month it will be old news
• There are CM9, AOKP, AOSP, and MIUI variants of ICS available now and improving daily. Who needs stock ICS?
My buddy has a tbolt and there's no comparison in the speed, responsiveness and battery life.
Bionic is on it's way with free extended battery

Well I told her I use the extended battery on my thunderbolt and told her that 4G phones have poor battery life. So she said ok free extended battery.
And now I'm getting $40 from a coworker for the thunderbolts extended battery and the verizon case I had. :thumbup:

I think the skilled developers are on Motorola though. Look at what these guys are doing with a locked bootloader. We got a handful of ice cream with a locked bootloader. How much more can they do if it was unlocked.

im part of a concession line and we get upgrades every year. best buy mobile has been treating me so well that i just ended up buying the bionic. i got a tbolt for free and it was a great phone but when bionic came out like 2 months later i bought the bionic. i got it for 230 at cowboom.com. thats were we send all our phones that we get returned or serviced. its EXTREMELY cheap. spread it. i love my bionic and i plan on selling it tho. im using my tbolt because i got the infected rom on it with beats. i like it but i kind of miss my bionic. either way rezound here i come!!
Why would you NOT trade your garbage 3G tBolt for a bionic? Even if you had the data issues with the bionic, it's 100x better.

Verizon is exchanging my Droid charge for the bionic, any thoughts on that? Which would you choose?

I Kno, i call it a 3G phone compared to a bionic. Sooooo slow. worst radio software ever.

Actually now that I've had it I would have taken a bolt again is so weird all this stuff you have to do to flash anything. And it seems lime the only roms out are ics which are ok but still too many things broken for me. And there are no stock like roms with alot of features like on sense. But I like the phone. I just had more options on the bolt being I'm a themer I want something solid I can theme. But the bolt was the best phone for everything. And my data connection and speed is the same on both phones.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
One thing though is the bionic screen and colors in it suck big time
And the rom selection on the bolt was crazy huge.

What's better the Droid RAZR or the RAZR maxx?
I've been Supercharged and Gingervolted!
Ever thought about the rezond?
Sent from my Dinc... I mean Rezound
Yes. But I wanted to go back to the Droids again.

I have done a lot of research and I think the Razr Maxx is the way to go. It is the only 4G Big-Screen Android that comes with a battery that will last all day without charging.

They're basically the same phone except the battery, and now there is a $118 kit for the Razr to adapt the MAXX battery, so why not save the money and get the MAXX right off the bat.
Or get the last developer phone Verizon will likely every get.
Galaxy all the way.
Rezound!

Tell him to use the face unlock. Or there's a pattern or pin# method too. Yeah I've ran multiple benchmarks and stock vs. vs stock, I always beat the nexus. Definitely happy with this purchase.

On board with the Bionic

Just made the jump to the Bionic from the Thunderbolt. Just did a flat trade locally for it. Awesome device.
Will be rooting soon. Anything I should know on the front end?

Follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1455888
Yeah. I'll probably do that this morning.
Thanks for the help. What ROM do you prefer? I'm leaning towards the Gummy ROM but I'm undecided. Lol
MOTOBLUR isn't as bad as I thought it would be. Lol

If you want a fully functional ROM, go with eclipse or kinetx. ALL of the ICS roms are still BETAs and updates LAG immensely. Jus so you know.

I had a lot of accessories with it. Mainly a Trident case and two extended batteries.
But I definitely think so.
Guy already had a Razr Maxx so I'm not sure what he was gonna use mine for.

Oh ok. I'll check out Eclipse. So the ICS roms here are actually ICS? They're not GB with a theme on it? Lol

I would like to get the Razr MAXX... But good trade I have the Tbolt too but use my Bionic mostly better device for the most part.
Just wish the camera was as good as the TBolts.
Went with Eclipse 2.2 with Titanium theme. Solid so far.
Now, the true test: battery life!
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
yep the ics roms are actually ics. they have no hardware acceleration yet though so flash doesn't work. also depending on what area your in ppl have problems with data drops. when it drops you gotta reboot to get it back. we need to get an official moto update with a better kernel and ics drivers to get it really solid.
