Extended Battery - Samsung Focus S

Has anyone found an extended battery for this? I'm looking for both ones that will fit in the original case and ones that need a large back cover. I can't seem to find anything for the Focus S.

Never found a need for a larger battery. Have you considered purchasing an extra battery or a portable charger that recharges your phone via usb cable.

never found a larger battery, Id have to say it would also ruin the device, and if this is anything like the HD2 and WP7 then slipping a bigger battery in wont help as WP7 doesn't see its extra size ( or didn't the last time I tried it a year ago)
id grab a spare one like as been suggested, leave a charger at work and at home both with a spare battery charging in them, then where ever you are your sorted, drive around a lot? then get a 12v to 120/240v transformer and have one charging in there as well. think about where you NEED them the most and work around it, but don't bugger one of the best features about the phone, its size and weight
on a side note ive never had a problem within a day of running out of juice, you may want to check your settings and background tasks, many live tiles will also have a negative effect especially if they don't work correctly

Extended Battery Opinions Requested

I've been looking at the xv6800 extended battery options. Since I came from an 6700 with the monster extended battery, I'm kind of leaning towards one that is somewhere in the middle. The monster 3200 (or 33, 34... don't remember) was awesome, I don't think I need that much day to day.
I don't think the 1800 is an option, so I guess I have to choose from the ones that require a different battery door. I'm looking for the minimum increase to phone thickness.
Option 1: I can't find measurements, but this looks like the least additional thickness. 2400 Mah. I can't get a good indication on the thickness it adds.
Option 2: This is interesting due to the way it is designed, it looks like it might feel comfy in the hand... 2200 Mah
Option 3: This is pretty much the same, but squares off the back so it might lay on the desk, counter, dashboard, etc more evenly... Another 2400 mah. At that point, I might as well get the monster 3200 Mah
I'm leaning towards option 1 since it is close to double the capacity, but it looks realitively thin.
Thoughts? Opinions?
seidio makes the 3200 one but no case for it.

Yes, I was aware of that, thanks. I'm just wondering if anyone has opinions or reviews of Option 1?
option 1 adds about 1/4 inch
Option 1s picture could be deceiving since the picture makes it hard to tell how thick it is from the side. The monster battery is overkill for me. I would go with option 1 if it extends only half way out as much as the monster battery would. It would be nice if somehow I can get the option 1 battery with the option 2 battery cover.
Option 1 battery with option 2 cover.
I have the option 2 Battery with a slightly different cover...Sort of Slanted sides to a flat and the cover looks great...
But don't bother with 2200 or 2400...
Mine is 2200 and you really don't get a lot extra from it. Can't imagine an extra 200 is going to make a significant difference. You will wake up the next day with a usable unit but you won't make it through the day.
Go for the 3200 if you can get it.
That should let you skip a day on the charging if you have to...
It would be really nice to see these batteries + covers from many different angles. People willing to take some pictures and post them?
It's a battery and cover for a phone. I think if you're worried about "looks" rather than functionality, perhaps the priorities are a bit skewed.
Buy the biggest battery for your needs, the looks are going to be what they are regardless because the manufacturers decide what the thing looks like. If it's ugly, to you, return it.

I don't agree with your comment completely. Yes, looks is a comparison option, and based on that alone, I wouldn't get the 3200, but I know that I will require x minimum amount of battery, so that is not the only consideration. Some of those with the slanted covers appear that they might feel more comfortable from a grip standpoint. The 3200 might be too big as it relates to holsters, pouches, etc. I am asking for opinions across the board, not just a beauty contest
Based on Asphyx reply, I might just go ahead and get a 3x00 variant... probably the prettiest one
I have the seidio battery and extended battery hard cover, it has a rubber"y" grippy feeling to it. Looks fine and all in black. My holster fits just fine.
Not sure what beauty part of a phone has to do with it, you could have a really beautiful dead phone, but well, it's just a really beautiful brick then.
Thanks,
Has anyone found a charging base that works with a phone (6800) that has the extended battery installed? I don't want to unplug the battery to charge it and I'm trying to get away for the cable bit, I liked the base that the 6700 had.
I've done EXTENSIVE looking for this exact thing, and so far have had to mod 2 normal cradles so I can use them with a super extended battery.
The cradles because they had to be modded didn't have anything to support the device standing up, finally gave up and just use the cable on the desktop.

Here are a couple of options for you.
http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=832
http://www.seidioonline.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=833
The standard dock has a 3.5mm audio port that allows you to plug into external speakers, while the Jr. version is simple sync & charge. Both will work with extended batteries.

NEITHER one of these answers the original request. The only difference between these two cradles is that one lets you keep the rubberized case on the device while charging. That is NOT the same as charging while having the extended battery IN the device using a cradle. I too would like this option. I've asked for this months ago. I have a super extended battery with a rubberized case and want a cradle that accommodates that and a spare battery to charge from the cradle as well.
To date, nothing like this exists.

Powermat

Hi
I was looking over the internet about news from MWC 2010 and I found very interesting video about powermat. They improved it and now is much better than was before. Watch the video (especially from 2:12) and tell me what do you think about it. Link - http://vimeo.com/9518999
Maybe they will do batteries for our HD2. I hope.
I am sorry for my English.
I would prefer the system the palm pre has over that.
What exactly is the powermat???

Wirelessly charge your phone
At the moment the power mat costs too much, if ever a battery is made for HD2 to use this, the battery cells will be smaller due to additional electronics that will be fitted within battery, so possible less battery life. Mat in present design (works on same principle as electric rechargeable toothbrush) does not fully charge batteries to prevent overcharge and heat.
You can buy an adapter that sticks to outside of phone/gadget so that powermat can be used with current phones/ipods etc., but expensive and will make a nice looking gadget ugly.
eaper and easier to buy spare battery.
Microsoft uPad looks lots better than the powermat, if Microsoft think and get it right they should include added features for windows mobile phones, this really would be the ideal charger for the new windows phone 7 handsets.
This thing is pretty ridiculous...
For the phones they have sleeves for the sleeve makes a very significant size increase, which doesnt make a lot of sense when you can just put the device on a cradle without any drawback in everyday life, and for the others you need to use the "universal adapter"... which does nothing but add totally useless stuff between the wall plug and device...
Why have wall plug -> mat-> "receiver" placed on mat-> cable -> phone when you can have wall plug -> phone?
And seeing the size of the "hump" at the back of the sleeve with the electronics in, it's actually larger than an HD2 battery, so no way to integrate it inside...
Huge WTF there. Anyway, there will still be people who buy it cause it's "cool" to charge wirelessly... with more wires than usual

did you actually watch the video? somewhere in the middle they say that they will be producing batteries instead of all the other things soon. so the only thing you have to do is change the battery (still sleaves for the iphone) an put it on the mat.
It's brilliant technology, and it is still very very new. Hell, I remember being in a Physics lecture a few years ago and being told a proof of concept had been done, but the power transfer was negligible. I won't be buying one until they are cheaper / more efficient, but its a brilliant technique.

Yes, but being an electronics engineer a can tell you the coil and regulation electronics needed to capture the energy are nearly the size of the HD2's battery itself - so in the case of the HD2 if possible at all the battery would have a ridiculously low capacity.
So if they release self-contained batteries, that will be only for a few phones which have big enough batteries to put the electronics while keeping a decent capacity, which will obviously be reduced (and I really wouldn't want any smaller capacity on the HD2...)
And turn phone off, take battery out, put other one in, put empty one on a mat, reboot phone? Having to buy at least 2 batteries to be able to swap? Instead of just plugging a microusb plug? No thanks...
I seriously can't see a single advantage to this thing...

Battery solution for the HD2

Many people complain about the short battery life of the HD2. Many complain about the bulkyness and uglyness of the extended batteries on offer. Many dream that a larger than stock capacity battery of the same size as stock will become a reality.
I am interested to know what is important for HD2 users, you cant have slimness with larger battery capacity, this is a law of physics. So tell me, if a solution came about that would significantly increase the battery capacity (beyond 2400mah), look good (not a lump on the back of the phone), provide a flat surface on the back of the phone, allow you to use your spare stock size batteries without the need to swap them all the time, with the only real compromise of doubling the thickness of the phone, would you buy it for a reasonable price (less that $50)?
I guess my basic question is, whats more important, slimness or capacity (lots of capacity I mean too, 3000mah+)?
I must say that I have never complained about the battery life when using Windows Mobile, even with heavy use I could get 2 days of life from it.
BUT since I'm now on a daily basis with Android, I must say that this is a problem, I can barely get to a full day with moderate to heavy use.
Now about you question, I WOULDN'T USE IT.
I like the size and feel of my HD2 (TMOUS one) and it happens that I have two extra batteries (bought because of android) even never having to use them yet I do change them and charge outside of the phone for easiness of not having to be near a wallplug everytime.
I just put those in the back of my phone to have an ideia of the size it would be with such an adapter. I would be inpratical to have this, so deep and big. It takes the easy and sleek feel of the HD2, to a bulky Kaiser (or more) stile.
Just buy a new battery, and if needed change it ONCE a day, ONE reboot in some sporadical day is better than a ALWAYS BIG phone wich is used to the full length of battery life rarely. .
My two cents.

Interesting, considering the amount of complaining about the battery life, slimness is still more important. I can see why these fake 1600mah batteries are selling like hot cakes.
Thanks for the input! Keep it coming, id love to hear everyone's 2 cents on this issue.
Extended batteries make the beautiful Hd2 look like crap.
To give an example: If you could bring a bulky backpack of energy drinks with you all throughout the day to give you more energy BUT you had to wear that bulky backpack 24-7 (even at the office at work, while your going to the bathroom, EVERYWHERE) would you?
I sure wouldn't. I don't care how much more energy I would have throughout the day...
The only people who need extended batteries are people running Android since it sucks down the battery like crazy.
battery extender a better solution.
i have a gum pro 4400mAh battery extender. it can charge the hd2 2.5x from flat and since it can deliver 1A, you can use the hd2 while it's being charged. its small size and the fact you don't need to power the phone down to top it up make it a more practical solution for me than any extended battery.
I like the slimness of the HD2 and I intend to keep it that way.
the slimness is just perfect in pocket...the hd2 is huge, but thankfully slim. if it would be both, i couldnt take it with me
and for me the extented one looks horrible..and i'm just a WM-User, so i have no batterydrainproblem
DN41
Does anyone know if it is possible to power the HD2 from the micro USB supply while I swap batteries. I don't want to have to do a soft reset which loses what you are doing. But I'm worried that without the battery to absorb the power there is a risk of damaging the circuits?
I don't want to just try it because I already blew my main board by powering the USB through a cheep adapter and a Nokia charger that supplied too much power and had I to get it repaired/replaced. I'm hoping someone already knows. :???:

Get SetCPU and Autokiller. Make profiles with setcpu, and set autokill on agressive mode. Your phone should last more than a day with little use.
I was using my original battery for normal everyday use
and the extended 2400 ah with kickstand for times when I knew I would have heavy or extended use. Next thing I knew I was just leaving the extended in all the time. It goes days on a charge and is not noticeably bulkier in my pocket and I am slim and wear jeans. Actually feels easier to hang on to. Fits the hand better and all that juice is there whenever I might need it.
i voted battery capacity :
BC if u ran outta battery then the slimness will become just overweight.
but if u have battery capacity then it worth it !
(Just a Point Of View)
I bought an extra battery off of ebay for $5.
The Hd2's battery is small enough to keep it in my wallet.
Why would anyone not keep a spare battery in their wallet/pocket and instead use a bulky battery case?
HD2 outdoor
I know, one can look crazy taking out HD2 somewhere out there in woods, but i do like wild hiking, and i do use GPS occasionally for getting directions. And My HD2 with Garmin well serves for that. For the battery - in my case i care about capacity, as my backpack and front pockets have enough space for "bulky" extension.
For "going green" - I have a wind charger (a device which charges itself when you bike using the power of wind, and can be used as a charger for mobiles), but it can charge the phone only up to 60%. So the spare battery for 3-4 days walk is a must have for my case.
My point is - It really depends on your needs. I am pretty sure extended thickness is somewhat a burden in everyday life.
Cheers
Correction: The wind charger sucks! Do not buy it. It has major flaws which render the device not worth the price.

Ofcourse it will work, since what you are doing is not different from charging the phone. I mean you connect this battery via miniusb to the phone so i see no reason why it shouldn't work. I think the right question would be if the device will show it as an extended battery or as the phone being charged. I think you get what i am trying to say.

Ty for the reply,
About the zagg, I don't want to carry along something that is detached from my phone, because I like to keep it in my pocket; I admit this makes it thicker, but I got extra big pockets just in case - sales assistant stared at me cluelessly when I asked for jeans/cargo trousers with the biggest pockets.
About the 2430mah Chinese battery, it's stated capacity is a lie - hence a waste of money.

LOl theres no way the fit an extra 1000mah in the same size battery. Im no expert at batteries but it isnt physically possible. I guess most xda members wear skinny jeans or something.
Wow that thing is huge and ugly imo. I get great life out of my battery using hyperdroid GBX...ever since I have been using that rom I have not once thought about an exteded battery.
I bought this from ebay for $13 w/free shipping. Just got it today. Hd2 is 2mm x 1mm x .5mm smaller than the hd7, so it is a little loose. But barely loose. Still fits, and stays put, doesn't slide around. Hd7 power and battery ratings are the same as hd2, so it is fully compatible. Works great! Doesn't actually add to your total maH, but you have a gel cover with a built in 1500 maH battery that charges your phone when needed. The result- led is always green or amber, so no flashing led when message is received. Also, there is no data pass through, so you have to take the case off to sync with your pc. The case comes off easily though. Case takes the same usb connector as the phone, so you can use your charger. Since it is a case, the overall size increase is uniform, unlike the pregnant bulge of an extended battery. Still, I'm going to get an extended battery just to have it and check it out. I recommend this case.

I was thinking of getting one of these (or an extended battery) but I just bought a portable charger. It's 2300 mah (almost 2 extra full charges) for only $30.
POWERSKIN only 4.99$
POWERSKIN only 4.99$ but not available for FRANCE ....fk...
now even 0,01$ and i think shipping to europe is possible as i could choose it on checkaout. Shipping 14,95$
you could order one? and you probably did...
i had a master plan of ordering few of them, sending them to someone in europe who can order them and sending them to everyone across the continent who wanted one.

Looking for relatively thin extended battery

Just bought a Note 2, currently I have a Galaxy S3 with the official extended battery. This gives a small increase in capacity (3000mAh) and also a small amount of thickness added on compared to standard.
Most of the extended batteries for the Note 2 are huge, I am curious to know if anyone has experienced any trusted extended batteries, possibly an extra 1000mAh+, but only adding a small thickness to the phone like the official one for S3, instead of the large batteries like Zerolemon etc.
I've been looking for something like that too. Haven't found one yet. I don't like the bulk that the big extended batteries add to the already huge device.
they are all double the size of the normal battery nothing thinner.

Well I don't need a battery that lasts for 4 days or whatever, just slightly longer than stock. And I do not wish to increase the thickness of the phone 2x, 3x etc for extra power that I don't need.
The genuine extended for the S3 was the perfect solution, I just wish similar existed for the Note 2.

I have had this same range for my HTC One X. When the battery feeds the device, it constantly told me that the power used is larger than it receives from the battery. So, this is bad!
When the device is off and the battery is full, it is possible to charge the internal device to approximately half full, so this is bad!
ut, worse is to come: My device dropped by accident and, because of this heavy load together with missing protection for the glass (device does NOT protect the face of the device!) the gorilla glass broke to several pieces.
So, unless this is a completely different type (which I doubt!), you better NOT try this one!

Oups ! Thank you very much , too bad, I ordered one already (I liked the idea)

Thanks a lot for letting me know, I'll report back is I go crazy enough to try it
What puzzles me is how you supposed to connect it. The case has a built in battery with two pins sticking out in the back. Then you have 2 sets of conductive wires to run from the battery to the phone? Where do you connect it on the phone, wireless charging pins or something? If you have Verizon phone, those not even available on the back, etc.

What puzzles me is how you supposed to connect it. The case has a built in battery with two pins sticking out in the back.

It looks like something you have to put inside, between battery and connectors.
The end will stick out of the phone. I think it has some glue so it will stick somehow on the case.
After that's connected, you can put the phone onto the external battery and the metal tips of the external battery will fit 'nicely' the glued metal stuff.
My One X already had those connectors for connecting to car etc.
I sure would not like this adaptation of my phone...
