My OEM battery for my Advantage is starting to show some age. I can't seem to find an OEM replacement on the web. I've had checkered experience with replacement batteries -- especially from ebay -- in the past. So, I'm wondering if anyone wants to make a recommendation for either a specific battery or specific web vendor.
I know there's another thread about batteries, but they seem to focus on ebay batteries or one which costs $82.00. That's a bit pricey for me.
Thanks!

so, if you'll excuse my ignorance, what's so special about the mugen battery? I've looked at them but was wondering why they're so expensive. 200ma more doesn't seem worth that kind of premium. However. I'd consider it if it were worth the extra cash.
thanks again.
Its more on the principle, you get wa you pay for! Mugen lasts longer and i believe they have a better warranty for them.Mugen specializes in extended batteries.If you just need a battery but dont have the cash ,then the 20$ battery good for now,no problems so far its been almost a month and charges hold well.
any one got links to those 2400 batteries?
i've checking ebay and googling online, but i can't find them
I am tempted to get one as a backup for when I travel...
http://cgi.ebay.com/Lithium-Battery...m?hash=item270213135346&_trksid=p3286.c0.m234
the one on the link is a standard 2200 not 2400
2200 is the one from factory
I`ve just found this:
(can`t post link yet, so google it)
Mugen Power 3400mAh Extended Battery for LG Optimus Black P970 / DOCOMO LG Optimus Bright [HLI-P970XL]
Looks promising, capacity is more than double
Do you thik it will make phone thicker?
Yes, the phone will be thicker.
If you look at Mugen direktly (first hit on google) there will be extra shells shipped with the accu. If you close enough at the picture you will see a little pit at the camera spot. I assume it will be about 5 mm thicker or so.
Greetings

I really like the look of this extended battery. Since the phone is already so thin I don't think an extended battery will make as big of a difference as it does with other phones. My only issue is the $100 price tag. Hopefully there'll be more options by the time this phone hits the USA, specifically VMU.

OMFG ! How ugly ! OB lost all the sex !
There is a highly reputable, reliable and respected seller on ebay from whom I have bought many items (but not batteries). They are selling high capacity, japanese batteries for a reasonable price.
Go onto ebay and search for 'Gold 2430MAH battery optimus black'
I emailed them regarding the quality of the batteries and the price and basically their answer was that they have an excellent feedback score on almost all batteries they have sold and the price is good because they get it straight from the factory.
I have ordered a set and will report on it after some use

There are no miracles in that area, there's no physical possibility of having such a big capacity in such a small form.
This is more than 100% fake.
Waiting for your confirmation.

Here you can find users feedback about those batteries. All of them are fake. Higher capacity requires larger size so only Mugen batteries are not fake.
Where would you say is reliable to get a new battery then? To pay 30gbp for a mugen battery is too much I think

If you need new battery - buy original one, if you need longer time, think rather of buying good 5v charger. The one for P970 is 4.8v, and some of polish lg users claim that 5v extends battery live. Think of some original microUsb charger, eg.Nokia.

I think, if you need a good product, then it's normal to pay a good price. Besides, Mugen has great customer support on Facebook http://facebook.com/mugenpowerbatteries and Twitter and through their website. They changed 1 battery for me already without issues. I rather pay a 100$ and know that I can change the battery if it does not work, rather than buying a bulk of useless junk on eBay for 10$...same goes with any other product - you can buy cheep shows and throw them away in a month, or buy good ones and wear for a year.
How much is the extended battery?

Mugen over rates their batteries by quite a bit. Check batteryboss.org
Mugen are the best and the "only" or is there any other brand....?

No such thing as free lunch. If it is much cheaper it is for a reason.
When is the last time you bought a 50 dollar gold Rolex?
But in case you feel adventurous and do buy that extended battery please do make a experience update.
I got a similar pack for my 5800 when the original battery died and to be fair performance is better than i expected for a 15 euro

I just ordered 1
Just wondering what kind of deals people have seen on the Bionic. It almost seems like 3rd parties werent really pushing this phone. I know Costco had an ad with some accessories, but I also saw in the ad that it might not be on opening day.
Has anyone else seen anything worthwhile?
unfortunately nothing special as of yet. i have heard that you can do the $100 off trade-in deal if you are upgrading from a non-smart phone. other then that just accessories.
I got the 100 off for using a non smart phone upgrade then 50 off the new every two rebate. See what happens.
Phone Arena's reporting Costco's doing $280 + a nice accessories bundle.
I was in Costco today. They said they would have 8 tomorrow at this store. He wouldn't say the price but claimed it came with $170 worth of accessories including a dock. He did say they would be cheaper than the Verizon stores.
I am seriously considering this phone instead of my Droid Charge.
Im getting rid of my Charge for this phone. I just cant take the battery drain any more.
I wonder if Amazon or anyone else will be running big specials.

Probably be some deals within a couple weeks, but I doubt it this week.
I just logged into my verizon and the upgrade price they have for me is $249. I totally expected $299.
I got this price by logging into the main phone account on a family plan and attempting to upgrade a secondary line.
$249 at amazonwireless
$50 for NE2, $30 off as loyalty bonus, free o/n shipping.
So one major gripe most reviewers had has been reduced. At $219, unlimited data and rooting it seems like a better deal, somewhat worthy of the delay.
I guess all new smartphones would receive such discount, but by most accounts the bionic is a capable phone and a significant jump from my D1.

For new customers only, unfortunately. Upgrade is $249.
wow didnt know verizon had it cheaper. was about to go to BJ's to buy it as I usually do, since the price for the phone is generally the same and they have better deals on the accessories. Thanks for saving me the money.
EDIT: just went to VZW and it only wants to give me a price of $289 with no loyalty bonus. I am part of a family plan but that shouldnt matter. I have been eligible since july for upgrade. amazonwireless says its backordered.
Checked this morning and:
Wirefly.com was $249
Amazon.com was $199 ( backordered)
Letstalk.com was $199
I'm hoping BJs/Costco will drop the price to $199 and waive the activation fee for me
Walmart.com also has it for $199. stores don't have them yet. Just checked. Don't want to wait though. Plus I'm always paranoid about a 3rd party seller screwing up my plan and charging me extra. Especially my unlimited plan.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
$269 in store plus $100 trade-in credit for old phone when adding a line.
Can anyone confirm the $249 price with verizon for upgrading a current line?
I am secondary on a family plan, and my upgrade isn't until 9/13, but the extra $50 off makes the deal a little easier to swallow. As far as loyalty, we have been good customers for at least 5 years, not sure how they do their calculations as to who is "loyal"

I am also secondary on a family plan and the best I got was $289. Just got mine a little while ago. Been with verizon for 8 years, but only 2 have been on the family plan I am now. Guess they dont count the other time before that.

My mistake, this price was listed on my verizon for me because I had a $50 phone credit that I was unaware of. When I asked the verizon rep he said that all family plans are credited this $50 every 20 months.
I went in to the store today and got the Bionic for $289 without an upgrade and almost 50% off some accessories. Got the phone $589, a extended battery and door $49.99, case and holster $29.99, HDMI dock $99.99, and screen protectors $12.99 plus 24.43 tax and out the door for $431.63. Saved $375.75
I went onto the samsung website (canadian version) and checked some of the prices for note2 accessories and I was blown away how expensive they are. You'd think samsung would realize if they priced their accessories at a reasonable more people would purchase them.
for example $39.99 for their Note2 TPU cover. $49 for their MHL adapter. Before ebay or online shopping I could see companies charging these outrages prices but with ebay and the like who would buy some of this stuff from samsung when you can get less expensive versions?
Stuff up here is definitely more expensive than the states.
I know its not much of a discount but shopandroid gets sales every now and then.

And if u dont mind waiting then amazon.com with amazon prime shipping is another alternative. Just be wary of international shipping and duties cost.

Impulse buying when the phone is originally bought. Wouldn't take much of a salesman to sell a 50 dollar case to protect a 600 investment. Or all the neat add ons "to get the most" out of your brand new phone.

This. I'm such a sucker for it.
My thought process: "Well, what's the difference between spending $200 or $300 on a phone when I'm paying thousands for the service? Might as well get the best one. And why did I buy a phone with removable battery and storage if I'm not going to buy a spare battery and spare battery charger, and a 64 gig microSD? Wow... I've got a lot invested in this thing. Better buy a case for every day use, and a tank of a case for when I go out. What's this... an app that I will use every day of my life for only $5? That's one drink out at the bars, I can swing that. An app for $0.99??? Might as well be free. Oh, and can't forget the car dock and charger, that's an essential."

You forgot to mention screen protector and also new pair of jeans with bigger pockets and pouches to protect the case thats on your phone...and if thats not enough might aswell get a crib for it by the bed side. And just to be sure and on the safe side avoid having kids for aslong as possible just incase that requires you to divert your attention from your note 2....

You are right to tell people to be wary of the price, Especially in the case Custom Duties i.e. vat to added [collected at this end by PO], plus the minimal £8 Post Office Charge.

Samsung is expensive because they guarantee the products will fit and work 100% with the phone plus every manufacturer always charges more for their respective products. Example: htc charged around $40 for their mhl adapter and $50 or more for their tv dock. It's just a matter of finding items cheaper and hoping that if you buy generic it won't damage your phone and fits correctly. There are plenty of reputable companies that make accessories you can count on. Like otterbox,seidio,spigen, and many others.

Lol what you said about "what's the difference between spending $200 or $300 on a phone when I'm paying thousands for the service" is so true for me. I have to always buy the best phones out. Unless the phone was alooooooot cheaper, as in free, I would never choose a S2/N1 over S3/N2.

So you think a $50 MHL cable is fine when it probably cost them 50 cents (maybe a dollar) to make in china. I'm all for a company making money/profit but that's kind of ridiculous.
For cases, I always hit up ebay. For the same price as a retail case, you could buy a dozen and try them all out!
For cables, chargers and batteries, however, I've been very hesitant to get them "cheap" because of the risk of damaging my device. After reading an article about various chargers and usb cables which showed that the third party/counterfeit brands have no consistency to them, I've stayed with trusted oem brands.

Dear XDA Members,
Okay I want to buy this product, and I can't find reviews about it as opposed to the famous ZeroLemon Battery Extension.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/8500mAh-Extended-Battery-Back-Case-Cover-For-Samsung-N7100-Galaxy-Note-II-2-/181102485781?pt=AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item2a2a8ca115&_uhb=1
What's the issue with these? Why are they not popular? I get this with free delivery as opposed to ZeroLemon which adds up to about $65 for an extra 800mAh (I don't think that's worth it considering I won't be getting that till December according to Amazon and their shipping). I live in Australia.
Have a look at it, let me know what you think please.

General rule of thumb: If anyone is claiming to squeeze a billion mAh into a standard or only slightly larger battery, it's a ripoff.
The battery isn't popular because it doesn't live up to it's claimed rating.
Even posting a link to it, some poor sap is going to buy it, give it a shot, and get ripped off for 28 hard earned dollars better spent on chewing gum or popcorn.
There are one or two other posters that have posted links to the same battery, and they all have few posts like this guy:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494002
Then there's this battery which suspiciously looks just like that one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2465295
Just a few samples pulled from the first 3 pages here. Stick with the reliable products. Might be more expensive, but they sure work well.
Thanks for the information... So the people getting them claim they see a difference, while others are denouncing their posts without trying them. I have no doubt the ZeroLemon one will last longer (it just seems like a much more solid product, its size alone is basically three times that of the original), I went through with it on amazon all the way until the final checkpoint and realized i'm paying $20 for delivery and it will take about a month at least before I receive it...
I'm sure this product claiming to be an 8500mAh battery isn't really 8500mAh... If people are getting a 4500mAh battery they would assume it's lasting twice longer when it's actually giving them a few extra hours of use, and it will probably degrade worse than the samsung one over time.
I wish I can find stock for the ZeroLemon one here in Australia but sadly I can't find any, so I might have to get this one and give it a review myself. It does look like it's double the thickness of the original, so hopefully it's double the life (at least for the first few months before it degrades and melts on my phone and burns it) lol
listen to apallohadas because he's absolutely correct here. vectron has also done tests with proper battery testing measures that show such batteries are rip offs as well. that's the one thing to note about chinese/foreign electronics...they can be rebranded far too easily because majority of the time it's the same company behind its production.

Okay I'll take both of your words for it and not purchase this product.. I'll wait for the cover to come out for ZeroLemon (should be soon from what I've been reading) and might get that with the Rugged Cover.
If anyone who has purchased these batteries and would like to propose an alternative view to the current one, please feel free to comment.
Thanks again for the replies.
