[Q] Which battery should I buy for i777? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I want a extra battery for i777.
Below is 4 batteries from Ebay, and I am not sure which is better.
I dont like the extensional battery which makes my phone thicker.
I have heard the internation battery 2000mAH for SG2 i9100 might fit on i777.
and the battery just 1mm thicker. is that truth?
The first and second look exactully like the original battery, but both of the seller told me they are not.

Which one you think is better? last longer low heat work great for the i777 Thank you!

without having any experience with those batteries, you most likely wont experience much gain in battery life even with the 1800mah. Its not enough extra juice to really make a difference.
That being said, I dont have experience with those specific batteries although i've tested others with no gain whatsoever.
As for the heat, I'm sure it wont matter either.

You should go for the 3000mah ones, they are somewhat a bit bulkier but they come with the back case for your phone. I heard they good and only cost about 8 bucks.

I don't the extensional battery which makes my phone look thicker

I am using a 3600 mAh Q-cell and have gotten two days use before with 9 hours of on screen time.

Shouldn't this thread be in accessories?

Careful about the ones from eBay, bought one and it would reset my phone when I plugged it.
I complained to the seller (from China), they sent me a new one, but this time it caused software issues and I had to restore my phone.

I think that's the best answer you're gonna get man. Unless you're hoping someone has separately tested all four of the batteries listed in your OP. If you're looking for an extra samsung brand battery I think they have them on amazon but I've never personally ordered one.

I recommend buying an additional 1650mAh battery which is built for the i777. All you've got to do is replace it when the juice runs out...
I say this because it's safer to use the genuine battery on the phone.

Are u trying to get another battery to replace your current battery and use it as a primary battery are do u just want a good spare /backup battery to throw in if ya phone dies or gets low?

2400 mah Anker

Has anyone had a chance to try THIS 2400 mAh Anker battery? I've been wanting an extended battery, but it seems they have all been fakes or cost an arm and a leg. This one has a sweet price, and I know the other Anker's have a good rep. I was just wondering if anyone had a chance to try this one.
Yes, there is a thread about that exact battery on here already. Search for it, or just look through the first 1-4 pages an you should see it. The owner is very happy with it.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Sorry about that. I did a search for it, but it didn't show up. I'll look for it.
Can someone post a pic of this battery on their phone? Love to see how thick it is...
I have the anker 2400mah battery. I got it about a week ago, and when i received it, there was a small crack near the power button. I am currently in contact with the seller to get a replacement. I will update when i get this issue resolved.
As for the performance, I love it. I also have the seidio 3400 from bestbuy, and I hate the battery cover for the seidio. The anker is much thinner, and feels better in the hand.
For now here are some pics.

Yeah, to drop it right on your toe. That thing's HUGE!
I think if feels good. The seidio isnt much bigger, but the anker case is much better. Sorry I cant get any better pics. For $12, its worth it.
The seller has decided to send me a new back case, since the original one came cracked. I will update when it arrives.

Just like he said 12 bucks for it can't go wrong even tho its big if you get a lot of battery juice more bang for your buck. Looks nice .
Weird... There is a galileo battery that is 2400mah and it fits under the stock battery door..... Something isn't right....
Edit: nevermind now people are saying it's probably a fake.

Replaceable battery

Take a look like at this youtube video.
Looks like the battery is replaceable after all. You just need to unscrew the back and open up the phone. Good news for those who are worried about the battery wearing out after a while!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lHsfARv_0Y&feature=player_embedded
At around 50seconds in the video he opens the phone.
This is great news.

We have to bare in mind, that this may void the warranty. To do that, you are taking screws out. I obviously don't know, if they would find out about that, but there could be some sort of seals, you break.

It's probably not something I'd do when the phone is brand new. But if you have it a while and the battery is getting worse, at least it is possible to replace it.
good, can you imagine if will come out a more powerful battery? the perfection
But i don' t think that this will happen

Well warranty is 24 months and before that I have something new, never needed to replace a battery or the need for a spare one...

Yes not need... I have GalaxyTab and I don't need to change battery for 36 month..
To be honest, the reason for a replaceable battery for me was always to carry a spare if I go away without access to a charger (camping/hiking etc). This doesn't really resolve that but still good to know in case the original develops a fault I suppose

You can always get a solar charger for that, one of my friends bought one cheap off of ebay and he's really satisfied with it.

1900 mAh Portable Mobile Charger

Power monkeys are good ... combine the solar charger and a normal battery .. will get one soon !! ( my friend had one )
Well I think Sony installed a water proof seal or something in this phone and obviously it's gonna void the warranty.after my warranty I'm gonna change the battery too.. Too bad's it's a 1700mAh, thought that it's a 1750mAh and I saw it in gsmarena too.
"or smth" yea please go ahead and break open yer new xps lol ok
I do think Sony will know you have removed the cover and it may void the warranty. Is it not a good choice until the warranty is expired. Right?

These guys are a joke. There have been no reviews showing the capacity in Mugen's batteries are more than Anker's despite it costing more than DOUBLE the price.
In fact, there are review AGAINST IT.: http://batteryboss.org/

Dude, this batteryboss website was debunked years ago. Check your sources. I used and tested Mugen, ZL and Seidio on my Note 2 and all of them perform well.
Dude, you have three posts.

Thanks for the opportunity to make my 4th. This is my second week on this forum, and I'm mostly reading, not posting. When I feel that I can contribute, I do. I've used smartphones for 10 yeras since E90 and used many different extended battery brands, so yeah, I stand by what I say.
I've used the Mugen Extended battery on both the original Note and the Note 2. I didn't have a problem with either. Great quality and great battery life. True the price is steep but it's a good product. If the back cover of the Note 3 extended battery was like the leather effect of the standard cover, I'd be more inclined to get it

Do they sell the back separately? There is no reason to think that the battery is better than an Anker, but the back definitely is.
How did you think they are able to charge that much?

Yes, we do, and we exchange back doors for the ordered batteries free of charge.
I wouldn't mind having an extended battery although I don't really need one. Only thing really keeping me from getting something like this is the fact that there isn't any cases that this would be compatible with and I have to have some kind of protection on my device.

I will start testing from today. Wil report back soon.
Bigger capacity batteries can not be slim ,is all the people gonna say, even some cheap and bigger,size bigger capacity doesn't have bigger capacity.
Fired up this baby. Came with 56% charge. will charge it full.
Old phone SOT : http://m.imgur.com/EgM5jNs, http://m.imgur.com/bKlPF5y
GSM battery says it is 489mah http://m.imgur.com/sq7Kuks
I will calibrate the battery. Full charge now and drain it 3 times. I have not factory reset after installing cloudy. I will do that if the battery still drains. Someone suggested that in another thread.
Edit:2
Got two different kind capacity reading:

CPU-Z : 3000mah
You never win with cheap batteries. They might work okay for a few months but then start degrading rapidly, also I would bet money the battery isn't really 4,500mah. But for $17 you're not losing much.
You are right.
Only got SOT 1h 36ms since ast night and battery is already down to 31%. I have to calibrate my battery https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&hl=en I am draining my battery and changing it to 100%, calibrating with this app.

I have the same SOT in the same configuration. Its the ROM I guess. Other kernels didnt do any better. Learn to live with it (like I did ) if you like the rom.
