I need an extra samsung oem 1650mah battery. Does anyone know where it can be bought in america?
i take it you checked google/ebay/amazon? i know there was another thread dedicated to this topic a while back. try to search for it.
It seems like all sellers are in europe which seems strange for an american phone
strange for an "american phone" made by a korean company?
Uh I didn't have to buy the phone in korea. As far as I know they don't sell t-mobile branded phones in korea.

And I meant the phone is sold in america sold so the battery should be. What if it goes bad/gets lost etc
i dont get why your so upset at the fact you cant just walk in a store and get a battery for a specific phone. i work in a place that sells phones, batteries and accessories. if we carried every battery made for every phone it would fill the store two times over. just order the battery.

This phone shares the exact same dimensions as a few other phones in the samsung line up and there are multiple capacities available that are all the exact same size battery (for instance, the Vibrant has a 1500mAh battery compared to the SGS4G's 1650mAh battery even though both batteries are exactly the same size) . So Im sure being that other SGS4G/Vibrant variants being sold elsewhere in the world, this is why you can find batteries in many different places around the world.
My local Tmobile store has them (Fort Worth TX)
It also seems amazon has them as well.
local store
lol, my local store in Plano Texas tried to sell me the vibrant battery kit....i had to ask the guy to read the mAh until he figured out he was wrong.
i don't care that they don't have them at the store, but jeez....at least know what you are selling!
This battery is fifty in a store. Go to amazon ten bucks

Also the 1800mAh one from the S2 Epic 4G Touch works great....I got mine from Amazon for $7 delivered in 4 days....it came from California
What is the BEST battery for this phone?
I just got the Galaxy S 4G (used), and it came with the original 2011 battery. It seemed to be "OK", but I wanted something better. I wanted something newer.
I purchased an "authentic" Samsung 1650 battery off eBay for $13. It has a 2013 manufacture date.
Well, I got it, and immediately felt something was "off". The font & spacing were slightly different than my old battery, and it had a "cheaper" feel to it, and its label wasn't even on the battery correctly. It looks like a typical counterfeit battery.
I pop it in my phone, and it seems to run out a lot quicker than my old battery. I've 0% to 100% cycled it a few times, and it still seems weak.
So, I could try to get another "authentic" Samsung that probably is a fake, or I can embrace the "after-market" batteries and go for an *extended* one.
I've seen 1750 mAh and 1900 mAh batteries. Are those any good? Do they at least last longer than a Samsung 1650 mAh battery?
This what I bought..they work great.
No problems at all and you get 2
plus a charger just for the battery's.

Whatever is the case, the Andida company and other after market companies like it are notoriously known to over rate their batteries on an average of 30% or so. Just Google it.

Hey guys I saw no slickdeals that the price of the HP Touchpad is dropping 300 bucks tomorrow cause they dropped it! I called to confirm and its true, I bought 3 for the full price and they 100% guaranteed that I would be given credit when the price adjust tomorrow at 7AM EST.
Heres the Slickdeals thread:
http://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3220862
You can either wait till tomorrow for the price drop or call in right now and pay full price and have it adjusted tomorrow morning. Some are saying the new price is live for the Academic shop but some people can't see it with .edu email addresses.
I have played with the tab in a store and I have to say for $99 this is one Hell of a steal.
Good luck.
Wow. I was expecting a liquidation, but this is remarkable. For browsing the web and random Document editing, this is an amazing price!
Does anyone know the hackability of this device? Do you think that, despite discontinuation, that the app market might become at least respectable (with xda involvement)?

I don't know about the hackability but I'll tell you this tab handles flash like a boss. Its the only one I've seen that can do 1080p youtube without a hitch. And I dunno, they are killing off the touchpad itself but they want to keep webOS alive, I don't really know what that means for webOS on the tab.

Does anyone know what stores have lowered the price? I've been checking the usual suspect's websites and they haven't updated yet. I'd rather walk into a brick and mortar place to get it though. I don't want to wait for shipping if I don't absolutely have to.

Honeycomb has been ported to the galaxy s line, galaxy tab and evo... Probably more too, I think Nook. So... Maybe it's possible?

I'm DEFINITELY buying one and I'm sure ICS can be ported to it when the time comes since the source will be released for it. This is a SNAPDRAGON QUALCOMM CPU and GPU and HTC uses that for their CPU/GPUs so I don't see why it's not possible, someone would have to write a kernel from scratch though to make it smoother, just like how the HD2 has Android, but it's not perfect since it's not using it's own kernel. If someone actually takes the time to unlock the bootloader(if it isn't already unlocked) and write up a kernel for it and port ICS to it, this tablet can be badass ;D $99 Android Tablet with ICS pl0x.

Got one for $90. I mean, at that point I couldn't resist. Heck, at worst I feel like if I use it, dont like it, I can still flip it for a tiny profit on craigslist or ebay.
Im really hoping for an android port. The specs on this tab are actually quite good. Im probably going to end up keeping it regardless. I'll probably just end up using it for bedside web-browsing, movies, and music.
There's a killing to be made by porting android to this thing. thousands of people just picked up this thing on slickdeals (there are literally over 11k browsing right now). I know tons are willing to donate (im good for 10$-20$ myself depending on quality and progress)
Looking forward to a touchpad xda forum soon

For that cheap I dont know...In the past I had a knock off sony ericsson bt headset. Even though it looked like the OEM product, the unit itself was a copy and was not up to par. It worked, but not to specs.
Looking at the headset itself it looks legit. But being from China, it's a crapshoot.
I have the black ones, but I bought it stateside. I guess you can try and report back if you are brave enough

HD2,HD3,HD7
I didn't know there was an HD3
They do look very much like the ones that came with my XE (except the XE ones are black. Apparently the XL ones are white).
However, there's no small ziplock bag of ear tips/clothing clip in the photo.
Also take a look at their negative/neutral feedback. Lots of complaints that the seller has fake stock of various items.
My guess is that they're using a photo of genuine headphones but you'll receive something different...
I'd avoid. In fact, i'd always avoid buying 'genuine' items from China/Hong Kong/Thailand etc.
I ordered these ones:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/20068164169...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_5063wt_1185
Don't even know why I waste so much money especially when I'm in school. This is going to bite me in the ass one day.
These seem real enough, they even have the "urBeats" on them. I don't think "iBeats" with the XE headset controls exist.. so I trusted this seller enough and if I find out it's fake or something then I'll deal with that then!

Cool deal! Too bad I paid almost double for it lol...but it was someone here in the US, so I was cool paying for the peace of mind I guess
EDIT:
Just a fyi for people who use the ibeats. This app may work for other headphones with button/mic combos like the beats headsets.
I use this free app called jays headset app. This can be found in the market and can make your earbuds/headphones have volume control with a long press/two press combo to increase and decrease the volume.

Bulk cost of the phone's parts don't always set the price. OP's link could possibly be a liquidation of assets, the already low cost of the phones themselves (probably parts cost of around $30-40, assuming they are using rockchip or allwinner chipsets) would need to be cut down if they need to move product to make room for new stuff.
more importantly, Alibaba/ Aliexpress is fairly risk-free for the buyer.
Description says dual core where title says quad. This is probably a dual core rock chip with a quad Mali GPU like most Android TV Sticks. Screen is 800x480 on a 4.4"... but supposedly has Bluetooth.
I've been around the block with these Chinese products and while it may work, expect a slow and buggy experience. I'm sure it won't support all the needed cell frequencies and dropping connections left and right. For $11 though it may be fun to just play with. Looks like the default OS is MIUI which is kinda cool.
Expect lots of Chinese apps and without root... Your stuck with them.

Deffo at a lower price, everything over here is way more expensive compared to the US, even the cheapest off-contract Nexus 4 costs 700 dollars.

You're going to buy 2 at $114/piece? $228 to charge your phone? I bought a 6 foot $1 USB cable from monoprice that charges my phone at my workdesk (laptop charges phone) and I just use the regular charger at home.

I've read that some Swedish online shops marked them as available starting in February for 75€. I'd post the link but its not in English, so...
i am really curious. I want to have this orb or any other nice qi-charging, but everything i found isn´t what i am looking for.
i do not know if it makes sense at the moment to worry about the price. It hasn´t been relaesed yet and so the final price isn´t known.
everything I know, is that it is a nice-to-have, but not a must-have, so I will not pay any price.
One thing, I am wondering is: why the hell do they start in norway and switzerland? I mean, I deign them to have it ... but this seems to be unusal ...
Hope this comes to the UK soon, and at a reasonable price as well. Should surely be less than a quarter of the phone's price. It's only a charger!
