Do you not think if it was possible to get more than 1650mah into that size of a battery then Samsung would have done it???

They have done it, there's a 2000 mAh version of this battery by Samsung. Search the forums.

Just 1mm thicker, surely better than the ones that turn your SII into a brick.

Agreed, i intend to get one. It also has the added advantage of protecting the camera lenses

As Joey2o11 says above, if it was possible to do a larger battery with same size then Samsung would have done it. You could maybe add 5% or so by having much thinner package though, but that is probably not great from quality perspective.

1500 mAH is the biggest slim battery to get..but users state no real benefit from the 1300 or 1350mAH. I am would buy what ever is cheaper since I dont really think any are better...it is how you take care of the battery by fully discharging before charging, etc..

Actually lithium-ions do not like to be fully discharged before charging. Charge as often as you can.

I read that before but I still get better usage if I fully discharge...there is no memory but per daily use if I charge from dead it just lasts longer.
thanks for the tip on the extended mega-battery, wpbear.
i'm going to give it a shot.
with football season approaching, i like the idea of having a super power battery for those looooong days of college football.
Whats a good place to just get a OEM replacement battery that isnt going to charge me $40 like an AT&T store?
U should be able to find a competative variety on EBAY. That's where I find a lot of accessories..
I really like the Sedio brand, 1500mah slim batteries, have 2, fit perfect and work well.

Larger Capacity Batteries == thicker G1?

I usually wouldn't care about the size of my G1 and adding thickness to it for the sake of adding battery life but as of late I gotten a hold of a nice plastic cover for my G1 which also doubles as a neato belt clip (for only 10 bucks... flirtin with them T-Mobile ladies does me good ).
Thus, now adding thickness to my phone in exchange for getting rid of this hard cover/belt clip isn't a option I'm very likely to take up and last I checked up on high capacity batteries it would add sigificant thickness like a 2100mah (or was it 2400 *shrugs*). Was wondering if there's any batteries that doesn't add to overall physical size while giving me better then stock life of just 1100mAh. Thanks!!
I know how you feel, I have a sexy ass neon green hard case for my g1, make it look sick. I had the same problem and tried three different battery retailers online for an extended life battery. The one that I settled on was the Andida: check out this post. You can find the eBay seller most of the people in the thread bought it from, good seller but ships from Hong Kong so shipping takes a while. I'd solidly recommend the Andida, I've had nothing but excellent performance out of it, considerably better than the OEM battery from HTC. Some people had mixed reviews about it, but in my experience, it was an excellent purchase.
I'm also using an Andida battery I bought off of ebay for just under $10, and it works beautifully! It's a 1600mAh battery with the exact same dimensions as the stock 1150mAh battery HTC provides, giving you 40% more battery life between charges without adding any thickness to the phone. It's the highest capacity battery I've found that doesn't require you to get a deeper back cover.
I've been useing the Innocell 1400mAh battery and its worked out quite nicely.
i use the regular battery, and it works for me 2 days, with lots of use and 3g use

Not necessarily lies. Battery life is heavily dependent on your particular rom.
Hero based roms seems to suck battery like no tomorrow.
If you are running a hero based rom, try running the latest Cyanogen rom and post back results.
I get a couple of days on my Fommy 1700 regularly.

edit:
Screw it, I'm ordering one, and I'll let you all know how it does. I remember how much I loved the heft of my treo 755p... still miss that phone sometimes, but the g1 does all the things that I loved it for and more, all it needs is the gigantic battery life, and now it may have it.

hero battery on topaz

i've been searching for a 1350 ma battery for my topaz when i suddenly found out that the 1350 mah battery looks exactly like our 1100 mah battery
does this mean that if i by the hero's 1350 mah it will fit in our topaz
anyone?
do you think it will work??
check the photos, you will see that it even has the same part number

The battery I got is a perfect fit (I did originally wonder if the capacity was indeed 1340mAh) with the stock back.
I have tried an original Hero battery (1350mAh) and it's a tight fit, but, you can get it in there!!!!!

That really is an impossible question to answer as there is so much affecting different peoples usage and the ROM.
However, the battery I got does give improved usage time and if I had to put a figure on it I would say 15% improvement.

Just saw a 2700mAh battery on eBay for @20.00 with shipping, and there are plenty of 2200mAh batteries being auctioned specifically for the PURE/TOPAZ/DIAMOND2. Does that help?
wanted help
what would help is if someone who already has a topaz , bought a hero battery and try to fit it in our topaz devices
two questions, will it fit and the back cover will be closed
and if so , what will this battery deliver in performance?
still waiting for replies
thank you all
I think that the batteries are not same thickness, I don't think that you can use Hero's battery to TD2
I think I mentioned that I am running an after market hero replacement battery and had also tried the original hero battery???????????
Do you guys read the previous posts?
And I gave an appraisal of performance.
thanks
i know that, what i mean is that we can use more opinions and information about hero's battery life in diamond 2
but that does not mean that yours are not helpful , on the contrary it was great and thanks so much for it

I don't have a hero battery, just tried it for fit, so the answer is an after market 1349 mAh item. No name!
The link has an illustration.
I buyed this 1480 mAh battery from ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.it/HTC-BATTERIA-148...QptZAccessori_per_palmari?hash=item2c51eb7bdc
the seller told me that fits perfect in our Diamond2; when it will arrive, I tell you my impression...
Hero battery for the Topaz
I have bought an Hero battery 1550 mah. It fits in the length and width. The thickness is a little more 2 mm.
It is possible to close the cover. It is a little tight.
I can not tell you now if the battery is running longer. I will notify you later in this threat.
I have bought the battery here:https://www.batteryupgrade.com/shopBrowser.php#/assortmentProductId/72162062/shopGroupId/60141010
The battery is send from Honkong. I lasted about 7 day's. including the hollyday's. The price is 24,49 euro.
greetings Wout
why didn't you try buying it from htc agent in your country, how much is the original battery is $
waiting for your feedback on the battery
thanks
I just tried my friend's Hero Battery and it works. Shows up as 1350 mah, but sadly it is a very tight fit. I can only get 1 side to click in and the other side of the battery cover has a gap. I believe if I sand down the battery cover I might be able to get it to fit. I'll post more once I get some tools to sand down the battery cover.
What's up there? We need info & extrapower to feed our topaz guyz
Is it affirmative to use Hero's original battery or not ?
Replacement battery from Cameron seems as positive, right ?
I don't want to replace the cover however - got invisible shield on it.

[Q] I9100 battery?

Anyone know if the I9100 battery will fit the I777? I see a lot of sellers listing the battery working for both the AT&T I777 and the International I9100.
yeah I cant find this in writing. Where is a good place to find oem Battery's
I got the 2000 mah anker battery off eBay works great! !!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA Premium App
The dimensions for the i777 Samsung battery are 59x46x5 mm. I searched and couldn't find dimensions anywhere for the i9100 oem battery. Anyone with i9100 mind measuring the battery dimensions? I hate to order a bunch of stuff only to find it doesn't fit. I don't 100% trust the descriptions on most of the ebay stuff.
Do the I9100 batteries have 3 or 4 contacts? If only 3, they probably won't work, or might damage the additional spring clip in the phone for the 4th contact. (which, if the I9100 batteries only have 3 contacts, means the 4th is for NFC.)
Let me help you guys out here. I ordered 3 international gs2 batteries 2 months ago in preparation for this phone and they work just fine in the att version. the dimensions are exactly the same and everything has been just peachy.

I don't see 2000mah on ebay, just 1900mah for anker battery.
Thanks guys, I think I will go ahead and order some i9100 batteries then. There are a lot more options available than for the i777 stuff right now.
Note that anything that includes an alternative battery door won't work. The battery doors ARE different.
Yeah I assumed that and wasn't going to go with an extended battery but do plan on getting a dock which should be similar enough to work well.

It MAY or MAY NOT fit, but I can tell you that the NFC antenna in the SGH-I777 (ATT GalaxyS 2) is embedded into the battery. So even if the battery contacts do match, at the very least you'll lose the ability to do NFC. And further, if Samsung messed with the voltages or signalling on the pins (which they might have done in order to get the NFC antenna hooked into the mainboard), you could potentially fry your phone. Instantly, or maybe even over time...
Until further work is done to figure out exactly what goes on what pin, and how it compares to the i9100, I wouldn't use an i9100 battery if I were you...
I got this battery with a dock charger and it works fine but when I plug it in to anything (computer/usb or power/usb) it freezes the phone and makes it cycle the battery charging/phone off symbol while the battery(?) makes a very quiet clicky sound. Not good. So I started charging it on the dock (came with a spare battery charging slot) and carrying it as an extra. It works fine, just don't charge your precious AT&T Galaxy S2 with it.
I did the shot at this angle so you could see the contacts, I saw some mention of it. My bad on the upside-down hah.

S2 charging problem

Hello,
I have Galaxy s2 (GT-I9100) but the problem is that it doesn't take charger, however, the phone is showing charging icon.
Everytime I have put my battery in universal battery charger & it take long time to charger my battery i.e 6 hours 60 % and 8 to 10 hours 100 % and then when I put battery in my mobile & use battery, It is draining very fastly i.e 100 % just finished in 2 hours. :crying:
What should I do? Can you please tell what is the problem & how can I fix it (or from my nearest repair shop).
Thank you in advance!
Try change the cabel and charger.
If its still not work go ahead for a new battery and usb port flex. Make sure the rev. you buy is same as in your phone

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, I have already bought a new battery.
Sorry for the noob question, what are you saying "rev" ? and usb port flex?
So, u bought a new Battery, but the device and even the external charger are both charging slow? U should now try to use another Cabel and Adapter (Even if they seems to work).
Also a new battery(Production 2015-2016) shoudn't drain in 2hours, it might a Software issue there too.
For the USB Port flex, just google it and u see what is mean. There are also different revisions, that one you buy must match your phone

Check in setting > battery it will give you a diagram of the battery percentage and what is using the most power. Also check the mah for the battery you bought the lower the number the short the duration for the battery eg 1650mah is what the original battery was

All 3rd Party battery's who claim they have more mAh than the Original Samsung one while having the same size are pure fake! There is simply no way to fill more mAh in same space.
It *is* possible to get a Samsung original 2000mAh battery.....but it's physically bigger than the one that came with the phone....it'll also come with an extended back cover to accommodate this.
To the OP.....If you got the battery off eBay and it's covered in a gold coloured label......bin it now because it's utter rubbish.....even if the listing stated 'Samsung original' and it looks like a Samsung battery......I can guarantee you that it ain't.......
Unless you brought it directly from Samsung, then it's probably come from Shenzhen in China (or somewhere like that).
That being the case, there's *no way* that the battery is rated at 2000mAh....it's likely to be closer to 1300 or 1400mAh....
Finally...If you do replace the USB board, the advice given about matching the REV version is accurate and critical....Here's a link to a guide I wrote on that exact subject.......
