Extended battery options - G3 Accessories

Zerolemon just announced another delay and now has no expected availability for their 9000 mAh battery. Does anyone else make a big battery and case yet? This phone is way too thin to be useful as is, and stock battery is inconveniently small.

Buy a spare OEM battery? Currently I have 2 extras which I might keep just in case but they aren't too expensive. I would like a 3500mAh that fits in the back still.

That doesn't solve the size problem. The phone is way too thin. Also, I don't want to have to carry batteries with me, nor fiddle with opening the back twice a day amd introduce wear and risk of damage.

I bought Tylt charger, and just keep my phone on it at my desk. I haven't run out yet

If only my tractor had a desk.

Ha! Man I've been in some pretty nice tractors...it's not out of the realm of possibility...lol

My brother in law back home in Ireland has a John Deere tractor with WiFi, Bluetooth and wireless charging for his Nokia.

I've seen those here in CA central valley

I have those things in my Versatile. The point is the phone is too thin with a small battery that I want to fix with a gloriously huge third party battery.

Great idea, but i'm not too keen on carrying around a brick in my pocket. I just called motorola and "complained" that my battery life wasn't what it should be. they sent me a 1700mAh battery free of charge.

I felt like that too but surpringly it wasnt as bad as i thought depends on the phone really I've had extended batteries for evo4g and 3d the 4g back wasn't bad at all felt nice on hands now the 3d mmm not so much hopefully the
feel of the photon is good and they get it right but the battery life is ridiculous either way a additional 10 hours of use without a charge I would sacrifice some slim for that

there's no such thing as a good 3500 mah battery for 11.99, if you think this battery is capable of half that mah Ive got some swamp land I will sell you really cheap.
Generic chinese batteries never provide their rated mah, are made from poor quality materials, can catch fire and can damage your device. Also if you look at that battery cover the speaker would be impeded by it as it does not accommodate the speaker appropriately
feel free to waste your money and risk your device though.

Whatever man, I just posted it for the community. Actually I bought 1 for my old epic and it lasted me 1 solid year for 15 bucks. I'm not saying its the best battery, but for people who don't want to pay 69.99 for a battery with a ****ty seido label on it, its an alternative!

Results vary, u can't compare individual results. Each person with a photon uses them differently. Example, I use my phone all day long. There is no battery for me, But maybe the next Guy needs close to double the life of a stock battery, without the price. It was just a post to the community for the people who don't intend on using the extended battery as a primary battery.

Just curious, where do you think the Moto batteries are made? Hand-made and individually tested in a lab on Palo Alto? I don't think so. How many factories do you think make these specialty batteries? Chances are they all come from the same place, Moto label or not.
I bought two generic 1750mah batteries on eBay for $12 total and they last as long at the Moto battery supplied with the phone. Not a single fire.
Stop busting people that are trying to offer help to the community. If you have personal experience then offer it. If not then give it a rest.
I'll have to give that Motorola number a call.. I certainly wouldn't mind a bigger OEM battery for free
Let me know if they give you a larger mah one or not.

If you wanna ruin your phone with a generic chinese battery feel free, but people deserve to know the truth about those no name batteries at dirt cheap prices, motorolas oem battery contains japanese cells cheap chinese batteries do not, for your information I was sharing personal experience with those cheap ass knockoff batteries. It is well known across the web that those batteries do not live up to their mah rating. With such disparity between the prices of these ebay batteries and genuine oem's or high end extendeds smart consumers have to wonder why, there are a plethora of bad reviews for these batteries. I say again, BUYER BEWARE.
Most Sprint stores will just give you an extra battery if you ask for it. I carry 2 extra OEM batteries with me. it takes like 5 secs to replace the battery and you are good to go.

No offense but, that thing is hideous. It takes less than 30 seconds to swap out a battery. For $80 you could buy the OEM charging station (includes OEM battery) + 2 spare OEM batteries. You would in effect have 10,000mah of battery power at your disposal.

They designed it that way to keep NFC intact. Look at the backdoor of your Note and will see two contact points on the NFC antenna that need to make contact with two contact points next to the microsd card slot. NFC compatible extended batteries on eBay have the same design. Also might explain why Mugen is taking so long with their variant because they could not find a work around.
However, that battery might fit with one of the non NFC compatible back covers on eBay. So you could sacrifice NFC for a better look with the extended battery.

Does anybody know whether there is a case for our ATT version that fits around the camels hump?

I have one of these extended batteries on my Note. I also had one on my Blackberry before I switched to the Note. I require a long runtime with my phones, and I am not going to carry multiple batteries around with me to do so. Tried that with the BB, and hated it, and went the extended battery route.
So...I agree with the previous post about the battery door being stupid looking.
When I bought the extended battery (from ebay), I received a door for an international version of the note. I knew that was what I was getting since the extended battery door for the LTE version was not out yet, but I wanted to see if I could make it fit somehow. I also was aware that NFC would not work with the new door, and didn't care, since I haven't found a need for it yet.
I got the battery and international door in. battery fit fine, but door did not. I tried trimming the tabs a little and was able to make it fit, but not *lock* in place like the door should. The company I bought the extended battery from said they would send me the LTE door when they got them in, (that is another reason I was willing to try all of this).
I got the LTE door in. Yes, it is ugly. I like the style of the international door MUCH better. I am using the LTE door for now. Battery life on this "cheap" 5000 battery has been awesome. Previously, I was getting only about 6 hours per charge. Now, I am getting 10-12, which gets me through my day. No...it probably isn't a true 5000 battery, but for $12, and a company willing to work with me on the door, I was happy to try it out, and I am happy.
As for protection for the phone with an exteneded battery door, I have this coming in:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/120841214598?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I am hoping that this will give some slight bumper protection but allow the battery bump to stick out. It only surrounds the very edge of the phone, not over the speaker like some of them do, which won't work.
Ok...to make this post even longer....
Anyone know of an extended battery door that looks like this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-GT-N7000-Extended-Capacity-Replacement/dp/B006W4JNZ6
that will work on the US LTE? I know it won't have the NFC antenna, but I don't care. I just want one that is shaped like that instead of the ugly bump one I have now.

Local cobbler appears to have seen this thread a +1ed your comment. Says he won't have his name attached to something so likely hideous. He did apologize though and offer me a free shoelace in consolation. :/ I guess I will never have a case that fits over the extended battery for this phone.

Extended Battery Brick

Just got the official HTC extended battery installed on my phone. Dang. I wanted to believe it wouldn't be a big deal, but there is no denying that this increases the size and weight by a non-insignificant amount. Biggest issue is that one handed operation is now more difficult. Love the increase in battery life, but man... hard trade off with the size increase.
Instead I getting the extended I opted for two regular oem batteries and an external usb charger. The batteries were 5 each with a coupon and the usb charge was 3(its really cheap though and all the text is in chinese)
So I just throw a spare battery in my bag and if I have a really long day away from home ill just put in my spare.
I love the added junk. I feel like I have a better grip. But, I do pop in my regular battery from time to time to just feel how thin it can get.
But, you can't beat the added power. To me it is much easier than carrying around a battery and external charger all day.

It weighs more than my fist probably, so if I am ever in a life-or-death situation I will use my phone to beat the sh*t out of someone.
I wonder if that is covered under warranty....
Personally, I love the extended battery. The only thing I don't like is how they made it completely curved with no flat part. And they did it on purpose, cause if you look at the inside of the cover, it could have been flat. Anyway, I've always preferred battery life over thinness, as thinness is a gimmick essentially, unless you wear tight pants, which I don't lol but as always, that's my opinion. 2,500 mAh should be minimum for LTE super phones these days.

eBay. They got em for around $15 free shipping. As noted above though, the case creaks for some reason, its weird. And the back isnt flat, so it rocks back and forth. But hot damn the battery life is awesome lol I had 18% battery left with 8.5 hours of screen on time, with half of that being on LTE. Combine extended battery with switching between strictly LTE or strictly CDMA, and this thing goes forever.
I dig the way my phone feels with the extended battery, but I only use it on weekends when we are camping or hiking. During the week I'm never too far from a USB port so I just charge often.

Yep. It does creak. Alot. Try putting pieces of paper in certain places to fill in gaps. Just watch out for antennas.
You can go all day streaming Pandora on 4g. This battery is great. I only have to charge at night instead of carrying a charger with me. I can't exactly charge my phone in the middle of class.
is the rezound supposed to drain battery even when pluged in and in use, not even streaming audio no gps on or wifi? on a 1amp charger also...

well, I can definitely see it. The charger can charge 800-900mah and I've seen my phone discharge at a rate of 1100-1200mah so it can happen.
My phone has seen 130F playing jelly wars on 4g. Some people have gotten replacements that don't get that hot.
I live with it
I have two phones and the added bulk is a pain, I think if I only had to carry one I wouldn't mind it, it feels fine in my hands and for once one handed operations it actually feels pretty good, but with two phones, a wallet and keys in my front pockets things start to feel very bulky fast. luckily my other phones to SGS2 is thin or I don't think it would be manageable, still I look forward to upgrading to a S4 phone later this year, which hopefully should be power efficient enough on LTE to move to a thinner Verizon lte phone with similar battery life, maybe a razr maxx hd or something with a similar battery size and thinness, which is actually the only reason I feel I need an upgrade.

3500 MaH Battery - does it work?

Just wondering whether or not this battery will harm the phone, or if it actually has the capacity of 3500 MaH. Seems like a great deal.

You can put it in your phone and run a battery test and see if it is 3500mAh.

In most cases those cheap batteries do not even have half the capacity printed on the sticker.

Whenever you hear a story about a phone exploding in someone's pocket, there's a cheap battery to blame.
Seems too good to be true, but I'll avoid it. I'd rather spend the money on an OEM battery with 3,000 mAh so I'm assured that it'll work, and that it'll last.
Here's a hint: if a battery is advertised as being the same size with more capacity, it is too good to be true.
I ordered one for $8 off ebay. I'll post results in a few weeks when I get it.
I live on the wild side and ordered the miracle Chinese 3500 batteries. Oh well, life is a gamble. When I get them in two months, I'll report my review. Oh well, it was just $17.99

Batteries and sd cards are scams on ebay. The batteries often even have a label underneath the top one with a smaller capacity written on it. They also don't last very long at all. Even if it works well new, prepare to be displeased in a couple months.
I have bought those black ones in the past and they were pretty bad. Like they only lasted a couple hours. Hopefully these are better. But I have also bought the ones with a yellow and red stripe and they were much better. Not as good as an Anker but still pretty good. Here is one for 6 bucks and it ships locally. http://www.ebay.com/itm/3300mAh-battery-for-LG-Sprint-Optimus-G3-LS990-D850-D855-S-Stylus-/191257900734?pt=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item2c87dbf6be
These aftermarket batteries is one thing I will not touch with a 10 foot pole. No matter how much I need a spare. There's only a few reputable 3rd party battery manufacturers that I would buy without hesitation. But I wouldn't go near eBay batteries.
What about Caseology batteries, I bought two of them hope them work same as OEM

I did a run down test on one a few years ago, and they were about 75% compared to factory, haven't tested since then and that was in the HTC Rezound.
If you have the time, charge them up and do a run down test with screen on full brightness playing high res video until it's dead, repeat that with stock and then you'll know what you've got. And you can let us know
goooddddddddddddddddd
I'll be waiting for zerolemon to put something up. Quality > *

6000MAH Hyperion battery

I personally don't think I'll get a extended battery with this beautifully designed device but I'll leave this here for anyone who may be looking for one but don't want the complete bulk of the Zerolemon .. This one doesn't look to be quite as big :thumbup: cheerz

And a different back plate which looks to be better for grip and maybe a little protection .. Is a Tpu case made for this battery style I believe http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00PIBNMEM/ref=pd_aw_sims_3?pi=AC_SY230_QL60

Well I'm recently looking for reviews for this battery cover too. I'm very curious about the thickness of it since it seems the company did select a good angle to kind of make up a illusion of a slim design. And no case for the phone that is having this cover on, that's another problem
True. I'm curious about the same things .....

I ordered mine yesterday from Hyperion website for $24.99 (free shipping, no tax; $4.99 on Amazon). When I get it I will upload some pictures. Stock battery was good in G2, but G3 display is the biggest hog for me.
Received a battery today. I uploaded 3 pics just to show it to the public.
I also measured weight of the phone:
+ without battery: 114g
+ with OEM: 162g
+ with Hyperion: 208g
Now I'm going to measure battery life for a few next days.
I put 2 dimes and 1 nickel to show an extra thickness. Check at home
I'm a heavy user and after one day I can say that this battery is outstanding. Normally I had to charge my phone at least once during the day. With Hyperion I used only 1/3 of juice. It compensate an extra bulk
I don't use NFC, so lack of it is not a problem for me.

Do they have an extended battery case like they usually do.

Sweet review, I bought mine a few days ago can't wait to try it when it gets here
I don't really mind how thick or heavy my phone is as long as it's not ridiculous (like 5 pounds or an inch thick or more) so I got the zerolemon battery. I can't imagine this really saves THAT much space. But then again, with double the stock capacity, it should be useful in either case.
Can you put pictures of it on the phone?

So no reviews after few days of use? I see that this one is currently unavailable. Phone doesn't look that big with this cover.
Anyone else tried this battery?
They have interesting cases but butteries are out of stock even at they website:

This battery is awesome for its price. Extra bulk is not a problem.
Bluetooth on, Wi-Fi off. In my case cell signal is battery hog.

I m from Germany and since hyperion don't ship to Germany i was looking for a alternative.
There are lot of companies that have the exact same battery whit cover. Just other brand.
In Germany there is for example "Akku King" or a no name company named "vbh".
I got the vbh battery because the one from "Akku king" was not in Stock.
The battery looks exactly like the hyperion. So far battery life is awesome!!! After 6 hours standby and approximately 3h screen time and some telefon calls i still got 72%.
Also the new cover and battery give you more grip. The phone doesn't tend to slip like whit the Orginal battery and back cover. I will add pictures from the phone with the backcover installed later.
You can order for example this one from Amazon com
LOPURS Back Cover and Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery Replacement
Or this one

Also that 7500mah battery I have bought from them before with my old note i717 and it didn't seem to last as long as it should ... I believe they aren't real 7500mah batteries .. Just my opinion... if you are going to buy a extended battery to should spend the money for the good ones :thumbup::beer:
2SHAYNEZ
Yes you are right i also doubt that the battery had 7500mAh but 6000mAh for sure. Because it looks exactly the same like the other 6000mAh batteryd. The mugen is interesting but there is no silicon or tpu case for them available. Whit the 6000mAh battery you can at least mount a bumper for screen and edges protection.
But i m eager to read you're review on the mugen battery.

Nice I didn't think you could pull off putting anything on the Hyperion.. Impressive.... Yeah either me or one of the other guys who got sent a free mugen in that other thread will do a review .. I've already owned a mugen before and it was absolutely amazing on my old galaxy mega ...Cheerz :thumbup::beer:

Sorry I didn't help you this time but if esimon doesn't do a review of the mugen I will.. But I think him and another guy has that under control. I will be doing one for other sites hopefully. Also I had a conversation with mugen about how the att d850 version uses PMA technology to wirelessly charge so we will see what happens .... Thanks homie for your input
