Bet ya that sucker takes a while to charge, if it's really a 3500mAH.

Is there a case that will work with this?

i'll buy one today and report in soon, does the rom need any tweaks to support aa battery with such higher capacity?

Once you get it, can you take pictures of what it looks like with the extended battery? I am just curious to see how much thicker it will make the phone look.
Thanks!

I want to get this, but I JUST bought my Infuse and a Ballistic case. Oh well, the battery lasts just fine as is all day.
Tell us how the battery works out. ^_^

Just purchased. Ill let ya know what I think.

The nice thing about our fairly dumb fuel gauge chip is that there is no need for battery calibration in any case - even with a major battery capacity change. Our fuel gauge is based on battery voltage only. (Also why wiping battery stats does NOTHING in terms of fuel gauge on the Infuse.)
The only potential tweaks that might be beneficial (but not necessary):
1) Universally crank battery charge current to 800 mA in all charging phases. IMO it's only safe to do this at lower battery voltages with the stock battery, but with a 3500 mAh battery, you could keep it at 800 all the way to charge termination.
2) Probably charge termination current needs to be tweaked up a bit in the kernel if you want to properly terminate the charge. It may be OK as is.
3) The fuel gauge load compensation values will probably be different. A large battery like this should fluctuate less under load. Really this only has a small effect on battery percentage of charge reporting. You'd probably see a falsely high reading under load.

I received it yesterday and I have to order pouch since my ballistic case doesnt fit it.

Also, after looking through our kernel source - only the Vibrant does load compensation, and only when playing video or using camera.
So the only tweak one might want in the kernel for this battery would be a full-time bump of the charge current to 800 mA. (Which is possible.)

I too received it yesterday, and all I can say so far is that by now i'd be down to 35% and plugging in (4pm) while now I am at 62% on infused b3.

Extended Battery??

Is there an extended battery for the skyrocket which does not require a cover? I thought I saw one on the samsung website or something. Anyone know?

Same. More mah doesnt mean better lifetime expectancies, quality of battery and ability to hold charge are HUGE factors

The battery just arrived I am a bit skeptical as to if it will fry my phone in the past friends have bought Chinese batteries and did the same. Any one have any input ? Maybe I should hook it up to a multimeter..

I take it you use ghost armor or use it naked? Yeah, it does bulge but I use a case so I don't see it. I never actually needed longer battery life anyways, though. I grabbed it cuz it was $25 and now I have a spare. With oem battery mine lasts well over 24 hours with 5 hours of screen on time, auto brightness, emails, weather and everything else syncing. I would never run a cheapo battery though.

greekunit690 does the one you ordered require a different battery cover? Or is it just the same size? Samsung really should make an extended battery. Actually all cell phone companies need to make the batteries bigger like the driod razr maxx

I've been using this battery since Feb 17th. The stock battery would only get me through the work day and even then sometimes barely. Now I easily can go through the evening with about 30% left before I plug it in for the night. Once I forgot and it was at 1% the next morning which the stock never would've lasted that long.
I wasn't aware we could use the Nexus extended battery. Since I use a case I may switch to that. If I can find one at a good price on Prime.

How the heck do you get 5 hours of screen time and have it last 24 hours? Even with the nexus battery juice defender running I can get maybe 3-4 hours.

Juice defender is sucking down your battery. I run Gideons script as well as some other mods. Easily go over 24 hours, usually 2 days. With the extended battery I have gone over 8 hours screen on.

Anker Batteries + Battery Wall Charger for Skyrocket

Also wondering if the wall charger can charge the OEM Samsung battery that came with my phone.

I have the exact set also, and yes you can use it to charge the OEM batteries. Have done it numerous times. I've had great success with Anker products. I've purchased so many of their products they send me free items.

About the charger, did yours break and if so, did you buy a new one afterwards?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA

Actually, when I bought the batteries, I got 2 chargers. The one that a rarely touch at work is still working like a champ, but the one I was using at home broke at the plug.
They're both kind of flimsy, but I probably just got one bad one. Still a great deal

Really? That nexus battery was able to fit in the skyrocket?
I wasn't concerned about getting better battery life than the stock just cause they're 2200mah but more concerned about the quality of the batteries and the wall charger.

well $27.94 to be exact =) i'll admit it did take it from an awesome deal to a really realy great deal. i had looked at these in the tmobile store and they were asking 59.99 i believe. At first i decided against the extra bulk and weight of it. The blaze is a small and light phone, and this case pretty much makes it not a "small and light phone" lol. 8mm thickness doesnt sound like much, but in reality it doubles the phone thickness and weight.
peronally, with the gorilla glass on the phones these days and the phone insurance from tmobile, i usually dont bother with cases, escpecially when they tend not to even include a belt clip or kickstand, but with the power outages from hurricane sandy recently, i had a change of opinion. for 27 dollars, even if i dont use it on my phone regularly, its akin to any other emergency supply one might want to have available in their household in case of emergencies.
just my somewhat hands-on review and my associated humble opinion of the product.

I just got one of these for my blaze, now i can go a full day without charging it! i did notice though that it gets kind of hot when charging the phone off of the powerskin.

Just ordered mine on Ebay. Does anyone know if you have to charge the stock battery separately, or you just plug it in and it charges both?
Thanks.

This phone doesn't have gorilla glass and is prone to scratching. A few posters here have been unfortunate to have put scratches on their phones.
Investing in a good case and screen protector is something I would recommend. If you have this case all you would need is a good screen protector.

Mugen Battery Case for LG/Google Nexus 4 (will be 4000 mAh beast)

Hi all,
I messaged a Mugen representative via their Facebook page and was told that they'll be announcing a battery case for the Nexus4 in about two weeks time. They asked that I wait for the announcement for details. Looks like both Mugen and ZeroLemon will be releasing batteries for Nexus4... Can't wait!

Sweet so we will have multiple choices. Thank u op

I was just updated by Mugen that the battery will be 4000 mAh. They will announce and take orders in early June. :fingers-crossed:

The way the Nexus 4 drinks the battery dry, I was so desperate to get a battery case due to my heavy-duty use. I wrote to ZeroLemon and Mugen and only Mugen had the courtesy to reply to me. Kudos Mugen! :good:

From my experience with similar portable solutions, you never really get the full amount, but still, it prolongs your device significantly when away from plugs to charge your device.
