Ive been looking for an extended battery that fit in the original housing and I found this. My question is has anyone tried this for the thunderbolt and how does it fair compared to the stock battery?

Also interested in this. Would like more battery. Just don't want the bulk of the HTC extended battery.

I was messing around on amazon and seen a few 1700mah batteries and am looking in to one.
Why spend so much on one battery
As long as you dont mind switching batteries atleast once a day hit up Ebay and get 2 or 3 batteries depends on your use, and an external wall charger for around 10 to 13 bucks. they are also slim and after conditioning they last as long as stock batteries.

wow, 41 bucks on amazon and just as many 1 star reviews as 5 stars. Think I'll stick to my aftermarket batteries on the cheap.
One of these would go perfect with the otterbox.
I know a lot of these batteries that are labeled on amazon and ebay are actually stock knockoffs labeled as 1750, but truly share the same capacity as the 1400. I haven't tried or talked to anyone that's tested this listing so it could be a true claim. Just a warning for people to keep in mind. A lot of guys on ebay are even selling 1750 extended batteries that arrive still using the 1400 mah labels.

I would normally agree and not post something like this but this was on the seidio site. Being as they could lie as much as anyone on eBay I thought this might be different since this is a company and not just some third party eBay seller. I'm just curious if this battery holds up to the claims.

I apoligize if I sounded like I was trying to be condescending. I would have totally made the same call you did with giving them the benefit of the doubt. It's a big company with a good reputation, and I wouldn't doubt them without proof.
My post was meant as a warning for the people that read the thread and head straight to ebay and buy the first 99 cent battery they can find, and then install it and start bashing a developer about battery life lol

Probably already debated about this, but my question are 2 specific batteries. The anker 1900mah Battery, or Mugen 1800mah. They're both slim. But I see most people here only talk about the Anker, but nobody mentions the mugen. I bought the mugen supposing it's better quality, but really haven't seen a dramatic increase in my battery life. I probably haven't tuned it properly since I only let it discharge to 10 percent.
Although I need feedback from other users. Is the mugen better than Anker? Is anker better? Or are they almost equal??? Please help.
One more thing, would the 1950 slim Mugen battery for the sensation work for this phone?
i got the anker but will eventually buy the mugen too. i don't like the anker not having a temp sensor and requiring quite some force to get in.
also, the actual anker's mah is between 1700 and 1800mah so don't be fooled by the claimed 1900
You honestly are better getting the Mugen, better quality, its just more money which i didnt have at the moment i bought the ankers.
The sensation battery should work if im not mistaken.

It will fit,, but it doesnt say if its compatible with the mt4gs on their site. Only the 1800mah. But i feel my battery still hasnt kicked in how it should. Im still prepping it though so i'll keep everyone informed. I'll also buy the 1950mah battery as soon as i get paid.

No, it's the Evo 3D battery with the switched polarities. The Sensation battery works properly on the MT4GS.

I've got both, and as mentioned earlier, you're better off with the Mugen. The Anker is cheap, but it's lacking a temp sensor and you have to force it in... it's not a perfect fit.

Oki, ordered one ;-)
ok so it's been a couple days, been tuning the battery and so far its giving me 12 hours and around 20 min before it reaches 9 percent battery life so it is an improvement over stock batteries, just not what I expected. Although I am a heavy user, I'm using a not-so-battery friendly rom (cedde's Mytouch Lite) and it does get me through the day right. plus where I work, signal drops dramatically, must be the building structure, so that probably affects the battery.
Overall I am satisfied with the battery. I'm switching roms and giving some others a try, I'll keep the thread posted for anybody that might be curious on buying this battery.
Well!
It's been a couple days, I already broke in the battery and after many tests, I am impressed =]
At first I wasn't getting the results I expected but after a couple of recharge cycles and battery stat wipes, It's giving me what I paid for.
Being slim batteries of course you're not going to get insane battery life, but they definitely get you through the day without needing an outlet.
I'm a heavy user, I use Whatsapp, Live Profile, Go messenger for facebook, occasional skyping, twitter and of course texting. I make about 5 calls a day and work in a building with poor service. Check my facebook and news every now and then and open pandora for my daily commute. My phone never gives me less than 12 hours everyday. Not to mention I use my phone as a hotspot at home and sometimes at work.
So if you're looking for good quality batteries just to get you through your daily hustle and don't want to add bulk, and don't want to have to be switching batteries everyday (like the ankers!), this is most def the battery to get. It's worth the bucks.
You are talking about the Mugen 1950mah, right?

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.

For those gamers, YouTube watchers, extended battery life is great here is a screen shot as you can see.I get a little over a day worth of juice that includes, playing an hour of video game, watching YouTube videos, using my hotspot, surfing the net, updating apps, opening emails, texting, voice calls, which I use for work,12hr shift, have to call every hour(security) which is 30 sec a call but adds up threw out the shift.overall this battery is awesome

Which extended battery did you get? Can you provide a link?
How much thicker does it make the phone?
I've owned extended batteries in the phone (as my last 2 phones hardly made it 4hr off the charger) but this one does fairly well I feel. However if I can add an extended battery and allow the phone to do more (more widgets) I may go this route again
Here's the info, ok couldn't put a link because the link takes you to my account, but the sellers name and info is in the pic,$8 is a steal, yes it makes it much thicker, but it doesn't bother me I only use it for gaming and when I watch another video,I might buy another battery.I'll try post to post as picture with the extended battery, my sg3 is blue and the back I got for it is white but that's my choice a two tone color lol.

I've hit close to 36 hours with heavy use on Beans stock rom w/ the stock battery. You should be getting twice this with a 4500mah battery.
Jesus christ that battery is huge. i would get one doe.
I use the hyperion 4000+ battery and the matching case, it is totally awesome.
I stream audio (iheart radio or Sirius online) all day at work which is an absolute battery killer and the Hyperion lasts so long I never even bother to check my battery gauge anymore.
I only get a day because I just got the battery on Friday, haven't broken it in yet, I'm sure it will last more then a day++, but remember 4glte sucks battery, plus I play massive games, stream lots of video.so I'm very happy so far with this battery .and besides I'm still stock not even rooted or unlocked yet.

4300 w/NFC, Works Great, only $15!
I got an extended battery direclty from a Chinese Manufacturer. It's 4300mAh - works great - and has NFC. (The NFC works great too.).
The battery is on Aliexpress.com here: http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...sung-Galaxy-S3-I9300-4300mAh-wholesalers.html
Or just search for 4300 Samsung Galaxy S3 NFC Battery on Aliexpress.com
I did a video review of the battery as well as the Hyperion extended battery case. You can check it out here if you want: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOZivj2__l8
Anyway, I highly recommend this battery. Can't be beat for the price and get to keep NFC!
I just hope Hyperion, Anker, Siedio, or Mugen release a 3000 or so mah battery. 4000+ is just too large for me personally. I mean on the stock 2100 mah I'm getting killer battery stats for only being 2100mah and pushing a 4.8" screen or so. If we could get a good 3000 mah batter I don't think the design of the phone will be ruined and also think I could mod an OB defender case to work with it. Not possible w/ a 4500 mah battery.
Hi
This is my first thread on this site. Please help.me understand a few things regarding anker extended batteries, before I decide to buy them.
1. Are these batteries safe to use ?
2. Do they perform well even if using for a year or so ? I have seen all short term reviews only.
3. Can u charge them inside the phone itself using stock wall charger as with normal batteries ? As you know HTC sensation back cover is all delicate. So removing it often isn't a good idea.
I have stock ROM and stock battery at the moment and not to mention I am sick of the original battery. Please help me understand the questions above so i can get myself a pair of those 1900mah performers.
Yes they are safe to use and yes you can charge them in your phone with your stock phone charger.I have had my banker battery for 13 months now with now problems.

Thanks for that info I do have one.more silly questions of mine. I am a developer, I often need you do debugging while phone is connected to PC and charging. So in regards to safety I hope anker batteries are just like HTC stock batteries. So.while its charging and in use simultaneously, I hope it won't explode or something sorry for being a safety paranoid.

what is the average backup time for Anker batteries (normal, heavy or constant usage)

From the research i have been doing on this i will say like about 20% more than htc stock battery on a average under same usage as with your stock battery.

Probably seller's mistake. I bought from the same seller through ebay and two days after, he set 2 pieces for $49. I paid $28 without the charger.
Just reporting in..
Using anker for 2 days here are my simple observations.
Up time : 20 hours
Awake time : 8 hours
Battery remaining : 16%
I am not a gamer, but i read a lot on phone and watch movies with flash player and talk (audio/video) to people over Skype / Viber everyday for over an hour. WiFi stays on whole day.. even when I sleep. So using the device continuous for over 7 hours on hand with brightness set to auto, and still having 14% of battery is a unexpected happiness for me.
I wouldn't want to expect more than this. !!

8 hours with screen on? Which rom are you using? That's a really great performance! I got mine for 24 hours usage but only 2 screen on.
Am using stock ROM. My typical usage includes watching movies for 2 hours, web browsing for 1-2 hours.in total. Gtalk, viber, Skype usage. (About 1 hour or less) and music plays even when screen is off. Screen brightness is mostly auto because I don't like reflections when reading text. WiFi remains on all the time.
This is after anker, before that of I tried screen brightness it would need charging 2 times a say. Now I make it through whole day one single charge. Mind you I don't play games at all, so may be that helps.
