Qcell 6200mah. Brief review - Galaxy Note II Accessories

Purchased about 5 days ago... so far this battery is amazing. After 2 full 0-100% charge cycles.. I simply cannot kill the battery.
Running Novella Dos at 1.8ghz pegasus gov and deadline I/o. The following pictures are heavy usage days. Everyday Blutooth is on streaming to my lg tones about 6 hours average... while texting watching you tube playing PSX (fpse) yada uada yada.... I cannot kill the battery. When I go to bed @12pm I have about 40% on average. .. and I take it off the charger at 8am. Average daily screen on is 6hrs minimum. Below is from 8am to 4:30pm workday... still loads of capacity to use! Still have 68 precent left!

I guess you are using modified Defender with this one or just a naked battery cover or something else?

That's sick. It does look like 2.3 with all the green... I hope it is .
What's more impressive is the '2d 20h 26m 12s on battery' Does Gingerbread boost the battery life????
I think the 2 days is how long the phone has been up since last last boot. I don't think smartphone can be used for that long.

You can see the chart covers 3d 8h 48m, out of that whole time 2d 20h 26m have been on battery. Not all at once. You can see the battery charge go up a few times when it is charging.

Check out this Youtube at about 11minutes in. It is part of gingerbread and looks pretty polished. Great functionality IMHO.

Amazing Battery Life on .246 with Extended Battery

I installed .246 and the "Sonofskywalker3's Blackhole Bionic 1.0 Ics-247 Base By T3" Rom from DroidRZR.
I have to say my battery compared to 223 is amazing.
I've gone 24 hours now and am only at 50% after normal use. I text and use Facebook and web browse, but no games or videos.
Overnight, I turned data off, but that was it.
I'm impressed and happy

Yeah your Screen usage is only 13 percent which means you dont use your phone at all. Your display takes up the most juice more then anything. Even letting your phone just sit there without checking it used 5 percent of screen. It came on for notifications only. So you see, if you're just texting and checking Facebook it would probably use up more then 13 percent. I have a 4700 mah extended battery too. not using your phone doesn't really help us in battery life stats.

Battery Back Case with flip cover

So, I was rummaging around DX.com and found this little beauty:
http://dx.com/p/3800mah-backup-power-battery-back-case-for-samsung-galaxy-note-2-n7100-white-178625
I'm thinking this would be a sweet thing to get since it's a case, battery, flip cover, with a kickstand to boot.
Anyone have any experience with something like this?

I was interested in this as well (although the stock battery is just fine). I've read the few reviews that I could find on Amazon and they were not so great. Issues such as Units smoking, phones being damaged,etc. However, none were made or sold by a reputable company so I'm going to keep my distance.

I've got one in my Galaxy s3. Don't buy it. The clip fell off within 2 weeks of light use. The battery lasts about an hour at most even though it was supposed to be 3300mah. And it made the phone run hot. Not to mention it was very thick and made the phone heavy.
The flip cover's edges peeled off in 2 weeks as well. It didn't fall off though. That's about the only good thing I can say about it.
I bought it on ebay so I guess it's my fault I got a cheap cover for $25.00. The seller had 100% good feedback so I thought I would get something good. When I emailed that picture to the seller, he said I abused it and he wouldn't help me.
I'm a disabled USMC Combat Vet, how am I going to abuse it? I don't leave the house much, I carry the phone in a messenger shoulder bag when out and put it on my desk when I'm home. Oh well, you live and learn.

Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll pass on this and just get a couple of extra batteries.

[Q] Portable charger

I bought this portable charger
http://www.amazon.com/Portable-External-Battery-Pack-Phones/dp/B00DW09QWS
based on battery info 2300 mAh
it works but only charges to 65% when my battery was 10% or 20% then appears this message :

when my battery is 75% or 80% it charges to 100% but drop energy very quickly from 100% to 90%
should I continue using it or not?
and what portable charger works fine with HTC One? thanks
no answer?
I used to use a Pebble smart stick http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0069Q6CGU/ref=mp_s_a_1_12?qid=1384980624&sr=8-12&pi=
I get about a full battery and a half on my HTC One. . I'd search about though as I'm sure they were £5 6 months ago.

thanks for your answer
weird thing that portable charger is 2200mAh mine is 2600mAh and doesn't work
now I'm not sure if I should order this http://www.ebay.com/itm/5600mAh-Ext..._Phone_PDA_Batteries&var=&hash=item43bb9d0f94
Maybe something to do with how many amps and volts.? I bought a standard charger from Leeds market a couple of years back which I intended to use with a HTC Desire HD, It used to start the Google maps app every time I plugged the charger in.. I assumed it was because it was 1 1/2 amps rather than 1.

Bulging Zerolemon?

I'm a full year now with my zerolemon and I love it. In the last month or so I've noticed the battery is bulging and warping. It no longer fits snug in the battery compartment and is pushing the back case ajar. Soon it won't fit.
Has anyone else seen this? I put it on the standard charger all night and use it during the day but nothing excessive.
I have a backup that is still in the box from when I got a second zerolemon a while ago that I'm going to start using.
seen warping and bulging on samsung batts. but never a zl batt. something tells me it's time for a new one before you mess something up.

That's a sure sign of a serious defect.. Stop using it and chuck it out before something nasty happens.
Good advice, I'll discontinue using it immediately. Thanks!
Here are pics of a good one next to the bad one.

That's scary but you could try asking for replacement, won't hurt.
Get it replaced you dont want it to cause any damage to the phone or anything.
