thoughts on this extended batery from amazon

15 bucks for a 3900 mah battery and the reviews (only 2 reviews) are excellent
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005D7T7EK/ref=mp_s_a_8?qid=1332373182&sr=8-8

I would be concerned about the size and not able to use other accessories such as cases, car mount and such..... But I would love to hear your thoughts on this matter if you decided to try this out.
Regards.

Will NFC still work with this battery?

yes it works with the ns4g as for the nfc there is somthing there but not sure if it works

How does the battery cover look and does is add a lot of bulk to the phone itself? Picture that amazon has sucks nuts.

im not really a fan of extended, I bought the nexus because of its shape compared to my old htc evo and evo 3d. Wish they could of made one that was slim

LG P880 or Galaxy SIII ?

Hello!
I had the LG Optimus 4X HD and I loved it, but unfortunately i has been stoled.
Now I'm in doubt, buy the LG P880 again or adventure with Galaxy SIII?
The price here in Brazil is a small difference between them, and then what should I choose?
Thanks u guys

Let's make a small comparision here. ( this is only my opinion)
Advantages of the 4X HD:
+ better screen
+ I prefer the design of the O4X than the S3
+ Cheaper
Advantages of the S3
+ Battery is better
+ More software updates and custom ROMs
That's what i think. Hope that will help you.

A little addition to it:
4X HD:
+Games lags a lot even of tegra.
+Tegra gives more graphics.
+Loud speaker sound isn't much loud.
+Old 40 nm process, means high heat production.
+Optimus UI 3.0.
+Better battery saving on music play only.

Don't buy s3 if you loved your 4x then go for optimus G it's better

Since the point was to split the comments in advantages/disadvantages of the 4X against advantages/disadvantages of the S3, I've fixed your list for you.
Btw, I didn't know if you meant the UI 3.0 as a pro or a con, so I left it as a plus.

Agreed.
IMO, it all depends on what you can afford and what you liked/disliked in the LG.
Quality-wise, I'd say it's LG 4x < Samsung S3 < LG Optimus G. So, if you can afford the S3 and not the Optimus G go for the S3, if you can afford either, go for the Optimus G.
Although if you have a penchant for the LG form factor as I do, you'll save a bit (and/or wait till the Optimus G's price goes down a bit) and forget about the S3.
That said, it's all about the experience so, if you can go to a store and try the S3 and the Optimus G

buy the s3 it's the better performing device, better sound quality also games do not lag and does not overheat when playing anything it also comes with expandable storage sim card support and removable battery the 4x has glitches everywhere with 4.1.2 and updates won't come any time soon.

Um we too have expandable storage, I'm pretty sure EVERY phone supports a SIM CARD and we have removable battery. Go home, you're drunk :beer:

Thanks u guys! the Optimus G in Brazil was released today 04/18/13 and is to much expensive
Very very thanks guys!!!!

I'd say S3 if the price is close

I chose the O4X as it was much cheaper than the S3.
If the price is only a slight difference, definitely get the S3.

I extensively tried my own 4X HD, my father's S3 and my sister's Nexus 4.. I found Nexus 4 is the best...
The price in HK are almost the same for these 3 phones now.

Man I am from Brazil too, if you can save a little more (I don't know if you are able) I would get a Xperia ZQ.
But if we compare only both of the fones (OX4 and SIII)
I just had the same question at the end i've chosed OX4, they are saying that SIII has a bad quality gorilla glass in Brazil. I don't know for sure.
Design of OX4 is way better than SIII in my opinion and about the price tag, I've found many prices of SIII the lowest was about R$ 1500.
If you look you can find OX4 for R$ 999 at red store and 1.299 where i bought mine at extra supermarket site.
I hope I helped you. :good:
Sorry for my bad english

A friend of mine was sitting ON THE GROUND and his S3 fell out of his pocket and the screen shattered with spider web cracks. That fall must have been less than a foot. It's crazy. So yeah I'd be wary of the S3's shatter resistance is what I'm saying. Also the same friend has had to send away the phone for software-related repairs twice now. He's not a modder, his phone isn't even rooted, all the issues he's had are stock related.

..not completely sure where that comes from. The 4x battery has higher mAh capacity, the sio+ solution is still organic, but better than the usual lithium ion batteries for retaining the charge, standby, etc. Tegra3 with a normal setup also demonstrably gives you an hour extra over the qualcomm chipsets on gaming. It trounches anything else on medium loads/movie playback for any neon/arm7 codec. Meanwhile the helper core can run music playback, small background tasks, and so on, on a power-draw similar to the second iphone, or the previous arm5 setups with the "graphics card module" disconnected.
Probably the problem is that LG put in a few background tasks, like the logger, and the today app - that actually prevent the phone from dropping to idle, while stealing cycles while running on full burn. This hasn't really been fixed, and you will have massively higher power-draw than you can have with just the standard setup.
Technically, though.. and if you just remove those apps.. it's undeniably the most power-efficient as well as most powerful chipset out there. And you notice it when you play around with the phone. For example if you do some picture editing, drawing with complex brushes, that sort of thing.. The tegra3 chipset here is extremely well designed, without exceeding the power-draw of an arm5 single-core setup.. And this is kind of a feat, so.. you know.. You get a lot for the money here - if it works as intended, obviously.... LG could have set this up a bit more carefully..
How many other phones with an ips display and a replacable battery and a memory card slot is there on the market, anyway..?

[q] nexus one battery - ???

Hey all,
I have had my Nexus One, since it came out, in fact it was given to me by Google themselves, I love the phone, and thanks to a combination of treating it well, screen protectors and an Otterbox Commuter case it is still in absolute pristine condition and I don't want to part with it. I have also put Cynogen mod on it and a top of he range 32-gig SD card, so it does everything I need.
Also I am on a great sim only contract with 3, and don't want to change it to get a phone from three, when I already love the phone I have.
However the Battery is starting to fade and I need to replace it, and after looking over the web I see that there are a lot of rubbish one's out there and it is very easy to get duped.
So I was wondering if any of you kind folks at XDA developers have had any positive experiences of buying a new battery for the Nexus One.
I would be happy with standard 1400Ma replacement, but would ideally like to increase this a little bit, but don't want to change the back or look of this classic phone in anyway.
I would like to thank you for you time in this matter, and look forward to hearing your lively replies.
Kind Regards - Ashe.

Mugen or anker, most everything else is subpar

Hey thanks for the reply, much appreciated, however any chance you could post me a link to a reputable dealer, and do either mugen or anker do a battery that fits under my original cover but has a genuine greater capacity than, the stock 1400Ma Battery,
Kind Regards Ashe

I would just check eBay or amazon, there is plenty of security there. And yes both out perform the oem and are the same size

Thanks Old Sport, have ordered a 1600Ma Mugen off Ebay, hoping to get a little better battery time off this one than the original, and that after I upgrade my ROM to Kit Kat, it will give my phone at least another 18 months of serviceable life, (really don't like the current crop of giant, android phones, always thought that the Nexus one was the perfect size compromise as well as a design classic)
Kind Regards - Ashe

Still worth it?

I have a one m9 right now and the battery life is really a deal-breaker for me, would the turbo be a suitable replacement for it or not?

How many screen time hours are you getting

Around 2.5

That's it? Are you sure you don't have an app sucking the battery? That 2.5 hours is bad

Yes, I'm sure nothing is sucking the battery.

I'd check again man that's miserably low. I get 2.5 hours just from the first 45-47% of use. Try backing everything up on the m9 then doing a factory reset and see if it improves

Turbo > M9
Go for it. You will never regret.

If battery it's a deal breaker, just get a Maxx if you can instead of the Turbo and look this:

[Q] Aftermarket batteries

Noticed Hyperion may offer a 6000MaH battery in the future for the G4 likes its predecessor.. but that adds significant bulk to the phone.. anyone seen anything that's smaller in the wild? like a 3500-4000Mah battery? would be awesome without the added bulk perhaps.. :angel:

I would like to see that.
Sent from my LG-H810 using Tapatalk

That would be a much better idea, but then again it all depends how the phone behaves with an aftermarket battery. I have been wanting to get the hyperion and see how much the phone lasts, for sure about 2 days with insane screen on time

hey man.. i saw this http://www.ebay.com.my/itm/Quality-...850?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ee3147afa
thinking of getting it but it feels a little too good to be true given the price.. what do u think?

I don't know. I think I might wait until I see something from known manufacturers. But feel free to buy it and let us know. Also, I don't like that it's only 500mAh more than what I have already. I wanna see a 4000mAh or 4500mAh before I put my money down.
