ok so just now i had a look of the AT&T S3 Mini specs over at www.samsung.com and saw that it is listed as having a 2000mah battery, yet the phone dimensions of the new model are a little bit smaller than the ones on the I8190. So would it be possible to put the 2000mah battery from the SM-G730A into my I8190, which originally has just a 1500mah battery (i have a 1700mah one from the Ace 2, but i want more ).
And please don't tell me that there are external chargers, extended batteries or stuff like that. I know about those things, but don't wanna add bulkness to my phone or to be forced to always carry the external charger with me
Have a nice day !

I don't have that phone but as long as it fits, connectors and voltage the same you can use it.
I did this before with my Galaxy W since the shop I went didn't have my exact model.
Or you can buy same size 3rd-party battery that claims 2000mah (I am using one), but I think the numbers are overated. I didn't feel the 2000mah battery last longer than original one.

can you give a link to such a battery 'cause i can't seem to find it on the net? BTW my 1700mah battery just stopped charging to 100% from yesterday (only goes to 96 max and then stops). Not that it's a big deal, but 4% is 4% (about 4 hours stand-by time).
I am using Sun Global battery which is local to my place. www.sunglobal.com.my

Hi
I found the orginal battery for Defy+/Photon http://www.store.motorola.com/Batte...olor_map,price,size_name&searchRank=salesrank
ok, so it says in the website that it's compatible with Motorola Photon/ Electrify.
Not in the Defy?
HF5X its also battery for Defy+ , and battery from Defy+ fit to old Defy I do not know why they did not write that is compatible with Defy + but the symbol is correct HF5X
so can we use this with normal defy?
Battery will fit into the old Defy. However, other technology implementation requires modification of the battery module in the system.
For example Defy + users have a problem with charging the battery to full in the system created for the old Defy (MIUI, CM7).
The opposite situation can be when we put to the old Defy battery with higher capacity from Defy + (not tested)
waiting for a solution / patch
Any news on this issue? Does anyone use the 1700mAh battery in Defy and with positively improved battery life?
On MSginger 2.0 you have battd from defy +, just copy and paste it into your phone, change a permission and should work I can't get round to do it myself lol

Hi,
Anyone has tested this or this for Defy+?
Is there a way to properly use Defy+ battery in normal Defy? What are the advantages? Someone did that?
All,
I have motorola MB525 defy bought in September 2011. Last week, my phone battery got deep discharged and the phone won't boot even after plugging in the charger.
As the phone was under warranty, i got the battery replaced yesterday but i got HF5X 1700mAh (the one in Defy+) as replacement. The service centre guy said that it would work with my Defy.
I kept the phone on charging for more than 12 hours continuously but the battery keeps charging and battery level is not going beyond 80%.
Can anyone please suggest what should i do? Is there any kind of S/W patch that can help? If yes, where can i get it from & how do I use it?
Battery fix. I dont know if it works..

Hello, I am thinking to order a new battery.
I did some research and I found couple high capacity batteries which you can see below, I would like to hear your opinions about those batteries also my present battery it's discharging very fast and below 20% energy phone suddenly is turning off so I decided the problem reason is battery, is that true? anyway what do you think about those batteries? Perhaps you can suggest me something better? thanks in advance.

It will work in you I9000 but it is better than the original from I9000

The battery used in the Galaxy Camera is the same one as used in the Samsung Galaxy S II. So you can pick these up for less than £10 so it's no problem keeping 1 or 2 spare with you when you're out and about.
Due to the nature of this camera, the battery performance isn't fantastic as expected and Sammy should have put a bigger capacity cell in there. But at least replacements are easy to come by.

I hate to ask this question and get blasted if it's already been answered elsewhere...but this seemed like the most logical place for it. I know the different versions of the Galaxy s2 have different batteries.
Which one would one use on the Galaxy Camera. Going on a trip over to Asia and don't want to have to recharge the camera every 10 minutes. Saw two versions from Anker on Amazon and was hoping someone could steer me in the right direction. Because I'm a noob I can't save you time and post the links.
Much appreciated. Don't hate me.

Thanks that's exactly what I was looking to do. But my dumb question is that there seems to be many variations of the 2 batteries and charger. Different mAH levels that say they only work for specific versions of the GS2. I'd hate to buy a battery that was too big with only a few days left before my trip and not enough time to exchange.
I assume that the different batteries that work with specific GS2s means that only one version works with the camera. Sorry to be such a douche about it. 1900 mAH that doesn't work with s2 II(SGH-I727) or s2 II(SGH-T989. 2200 mAH that doesn't work with S2I9100 etc. I don't know if you have as many versions to worry about on amazon as we do in the states since we have different carriers on different wireless technologies.
As long as the batteries fit shape-wise they should work. Anyway: the correct type is EB-F1A2GBU, 1650mAh.
But be careful, there are loads of fakes out there, just bought two (ok, they were unreasonable cheap) and they won't fit into the camera's battery slot (too thick).

I bought 2 x Galaxy S2 1800mAh batteries and a charger for £9 off eBay and they work without any problems. I know there are 'fakes' out there with regards to the capacities but I have used ebay for replacement universal batteries for years for a whole range of phones and (so far) no problems. As ever pick a seller with good ratings and read the feedback etc and I don't see why you'd have any issues.
Regarding compatibility, I just used the original battery model number: EB-F1A2GBU and searched from there.

Just use Samsung original battery for Galaxy S II GT-I9100....
Samsung release two models, 1650mAh like the one that comes default on GT-I9100, and 2000mAh official extended battery. The size is the same, so both can be used with SGC.
When I bought mine at the AT&T store here in NY, they gave me a Samsung charging kit for free. The kit has a Samsung battery charger and an extra Samsung battery.
I'm jealous, I didn't get this kit when I bought mine from AT&T. :/

In Indonesia, if you buy this on the launching day, you get battery kit (1x 1650mAh battery + 1x external charger) and protective film for the display :laugh:
I bought mine from att as well. I actually asked if there were any promotions going on for the camera and that's when they brought up the charger. They didn't volunteer the information. Go back into the store and ask.

While usinge my Galaxy S i9000 for two years now i noticed sometimes the battery lasts (ordinary daily usage presumed) only arround 12 hours, so i tried to find a battery with a higher capacity.
The battery shipped by Samsung only had 1500mAh and after a while you could buy 1800mAh batteries with the same dimensions (i got some from Polarcell made in Germany)
1800mAh means you got a 20% higher capacity IMHO this means 20% longer time to use until charging
relating to the presumed 12hours of lifetime this means 2.4hours this is ok if you charge the phone over night and sleep 8 hours
Coming to the 9070 now!!!
i tried to find some bigger batteries for the advanced. i found some 1650mAh batteries, but i first tried to push my old battery in my new phone .
As you can see on the attached file 1 its only 1mm difference between the two batteries and so the battery didnt fit into the phone. But ive got more than just 1 battery.
So i removed the piece of plastic at the bottom of the battery and the foil around it and voila:
With a little pressure i pushed the battery into the phone
this is just a tip for anyone who needs 20% more capacity and doesnt find such a big battery
Thats dangerous mate..
LOL, I tried it with my i9003 battery and had the same problem like you, I tried to force it but I think it may damage the plastic

edit2: yeah both batteries contain a smaller aluminium battery i removed the body of my original i9000 and i9070 batteries ...
Polarcell has a 1700mAh battery for i9070 (i use it for a week now)

Hello mate. I use Mugen Power 3500mAh battery for my I9070. I am very satisfied with it. I mostly use my phone for web browsing , ROM installing and occasional gaming. With the sammy's battery(1500mAh) it barely lasts 18 hours on heavy use.
But with this new battery it lasts well over a day(atleast 30-32 hours) on heavy use. I use cocore kernel and set the charging voltage to 600mA, default. Anything above this will overheat your phone. Also I lowered the usb charging to 400mA.
Overall I am satisfied with this battery.
Thank you for your answer. I believe that your battery is of higher capacity since it's really bigger, but problem is the battery I'm talking about is of SAME volume as original 1500mAh. I'm wondering how have they achieved that (if they did at all), maybe they removed some security parts in order to put more li-ion compound

I think below part of the sammy's 1500mAh battery is made of hard plastic and can be cut and shrinked without affecting the usability.
So the 1800/2450 mAh extended batteries use that space and obtain better capacity without compromising on safety. Anyway good luck.

Swap once every day and a half or so
Hear my advice. Stick to anker

I can't say exactly but it is a noticeable difference. I am a heavy user and dont have tocharge normally until I go to bed. With the Yesoo, I had to charge by the evening. Three batteries came with it and I have only used one. I'll probably try thr others out.
I agree with the above though. I should have bought Anker.
A note to you from my Note 2.
Here is my advice. All these extended batteries dont worth your money. I had tried many with Note 1 and was just a waste of money. Stick with the original.
anyone has experience with ankers for the note 2 i used them on my s2 and they were alright.. how bout the note 2. torn between ankers of the official spare batt using the 50% coupon
That if I remember correctly, are 3100 mah battery with a 3500 mah sticker. Avoid.

Does that mean you switched from N2 to S4?
Btw, no surprise about the battery. Any stock size battery with higher than stock capacity is a dead giveaway of fake. Gets harder to weed it out when they claim the same capacity as stock or double size extended with double capacity. In those cases, I would only trust Anker, Hyperion, and Mugen.

Yes, and no actually.
I did just switch from the N2 to the S4, but this battery is the S4 battery, not the N2 battery. I just saw this thread about the YESOO cell for the N2, and thought I'd share the info about the S4 cell.
A dishonest company is likely dishonest across the board with all their cells. In this case, factory stock is 2600, and that's what YESOO claimed, but in reality, they used a 2050 cell.
