if you still have your old captivate or have a extra spear battery for captivate, you can use it on infuse!
captivate battery is SHORTER then infuse battery, just stuff some papers in the gap to make it tight and it will work on infuse!

This is so obvious. Most to all samsung batteries will work with other samsung phones. Mine tiny samsung flip phone that cost 20 dollars' tiny battery can be put in my captivate n turn it on for a few minutes. And my huge captivate battery compared to the flip phone can power it for days.

I used the captivate battery today unplug at 6am, at 7:28pm the warning low battery came off. But the thing is you can't charge it inside the phone the screen turns black, but after you remove the micro USB it's all okay.
Have you experience it?

If you never had a Samsung Galaxy phone yet, coming from HTC, you will be disappointed. HTC's build quality is MUCH MUCH better compared to Samsung's lightweight plastic and material

My only question is why this isn't posted in the infuse forum..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1158
This is the inspire forums.
Enjoy yer crapsong.....Or somthing
I don't known if it was just the display model but I thought it sucked.
Screen looked like crap, exactly like a Craptivate with a huge screen.
I was used the browser to look at xda and the experience was terrible.
Maybe it was just that model, I don't know.
The 2 nice things I noticed that sideloading was enabled and as big as the screen was, it didn't feel as big as it really was.

I tried a infuse that actually was working. My buddy bought one and he said its better cuz its light weight. Let me tell you, just like sgs,this phone feels like a cheap pos. This phone has a great screen but ill take build and quality over that screen anyday. His gps would reset using gps status app and it took atleast 76 seconds to lock on cold reset. Horrible and I'm in Dallas. Save the money,Samsung needs to stick with tvs and blu ray players. My two cents

Yeah there's a ton of these type of devices on eBay and Amazon.com ... they're great and don't require the phone to power off to use. I carry the energizer 4000mah model in my travel bag for such cases where I need a boost.
Yours looks pretty tho, the white is nice.
Yes, for the reason that darker colors when they have scratches it is very visible compare to white.
My case is white too see picture below.

I'd go with Energizer tho, the off brands tend to use crap cells inside, just like aftermarket batteries often do for the phones.

Our phones, unless they detect the iCharging resistors of the mintyboost as USB, will probably pull too much current for a mintyboost.
I wish a 1A version existed.

Current is limited to 600 mA without kernel hacks. This backup battery is, I assume, 5000 mAh, so it should be able to charge the phone for around 7-8 hours at 600 mA.
Although that may be 5000 mAh at the backup battery's pack voltage, which translates to maybe 4000 mAh at 5v output. (Conservation of energy... It's a bit better to rate stuff like this in watt-hours but everyone just advertises the pack rating, ignoring inefficiencies in the boost converter used to reach 5v output.)
Edit: Oh, this one IS rated in watt-hours. 19 Wh translates to 3.8 amp-hours at 5 volts assuming a 100% efficient power supply, in reality it's probably around 3.2-3.4 amp-hours on the 5v output.
thanx now i know what to ask for christmas lol

If reffering to a woman the word attractive is synonymous with sexy. It is an adjective that i chose to use because i thought it sounded less bland than to say "more attractive battery cover". And I dont feel the word is overused, cant have too much sexy lol
