I came across this site, Noticed quite a few people have bought them from Ebay. I found a better dealer than those from Ebay. And plus when I 1st opened the package I received the "Correct Type" of Batteries. Received them from China to Florida within 2 weeks.
Site with 1900mah Batteries Bundle of 3 for $12, Must buy a min of 3 pieces.

mind letting us know how it performs compared to stock after you burn it in for a few days? i'm imagine the 1900mah rating it has isn't what its cracked up to be but if it still ends up performing better regardless, i might pick up a few

I put the 1st battery in dismorning Charged it up to 100% it was at about 86% when I put it in. I've been on battery for 3h 48m and I'm at 75% battery left. Been doing a lot of wifi, texting, and calling today since I finally got my HS Diploma. So I've been blowing up the phone a bit on the new battery lol. I can ensure once it burns in about 4 charges in, I' should get just a hour or 2 more over stock battery. The batteries do charge fast as I hear from others, and the battery is a tad bit lighter in weight.
Sweet.. two questions
Only way to charge is in phone, yes?
You ordered with China Post Air mail and it got there in only two weeks?? Not bad...

Yea it was shipped via China Post Air Mail. And Yes! They work like the regular stock battery so they charge in phone.
I bought these off ebay and they came with a charger for $12. 3 months no problems.

Edit: After all we are nearing Christmas. The Supplier could be backed up with other orders and just didn't get to you yet.
Yup. Supplier shipped the order. I know it's gonna be a while before they come, but I don't mind waiting. A good deal is a good deal.

Amazon doesn't have these batteries. They have other cheaper batteries all had bad reviews and all batteries come from hong Kong. After looking around I just said no thanks. Batteries are holding up nice by the way and work great.

They are all the same thing with different stickers. I've got about a dozen different batteries for my infuse from different sources. The ones on amazon have been very satisfactory, especially when comparing shipping times/costs (I have prime). Amazon carries the best replacement batteries for the infuse, as well as the widest variety, and most have very good reviews. Go check again.

I get an average of 5 more hours with the extended battery, after clearing batt stats, etc.
the battery says "replacement for SAM infuse 4g /i997 3.7VDC, 3500mAh"
I am most definitly going to order this battery. I just switched over from the iPhone 4, and this battery ia not nearly as good. So i orderd 2 replacement batteries off of eBay, which I most likely will return now after reading this.
I will give my feedback after I recieve the new battery.

I bought the ext. battery a few months ago, but just started using it regularly last week. Witht he Seidio ext. cover and case, the phone is a brick, but I love it. Ext battery lasts me easily all day with heavy use.
the thunderbolt is a bust.. It needs to look like a freaking brick and to feel like one in order to function like it should out of the box.
It would be nicer if it didn't have the hype going in.. this phone is really all hype, as there are many phones already better then this phone in a short time span, without nearly half as much hype.

hahaha, start a thread slamming the TB and go on every post to complaint. think you are the noob here. i am totally happy with it, i get 10+hrs easy on a custom rom, if that was/is your complaint.
well, you could always get a different phone...and i am sure you will find faults with it.
i am happy with the dev's working on the TB and putting out amazing ROM's. think you shoudl try them out before starting up.
I agree. The extended battery works great for me. It's not as bad as some people make it seem. I for sure don't think its a "bust". Pros outweigh the cons for me.

I got the HTC extrended battery & cover from my local Verizon store about two weeks ago for ~$40 after tax due to my company discount. It is so nice not to have to worry about how much I surf the net, text or talk on the phone. Even after 12 hours of moderate use my battery averages ~50%, which is not too shabby.
I also bought the Seidio Active Extended case, but was not too impressed with the plastic kickstand and overall bulk. Believe it or not, I ended up using the High Gloss Silicone Cover for Extended Battery case that I purchased for ~$15 at the Verizon store. Though using the power/volume buttons was a little tough until the case was broken-in, it just feels less bulky and seems to offer better protection than the Seidio case (IMHO).
Got my extended 2 months ago and couldn't be happier. I went in the Verizon store complaining about battery life and how I can't use this phone anymore and they gave me the battery for $20 to shut me up Lol
Other Options
If you don't want to get an extended battery but you want some extended time there are some good deals on batteries on amazon. I saw on there you can get 2 regular 1400 mah batteries plus a wall charger for the batteries for $20. All the reviews seemed positive too. It's really just another option, and cheaper too.
Is it still on sale I need it bad!!
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Do it. It bulky no question, but the added bulk actually makes it easier to hold. And I use the pi** out of my phone and it lasts from 6:30am until the following morning without touching a charger. I'm running chingy's 3d...but I suspect it would do that on just about on any custom ROM.

What are you doing to make your battery drain so fast? I use my phone on AO5PTH3ORY with cooked in kernal and I am getting about 10 hours + when usage steady all day, on WiFi 3g/4g, email, text, internet. Try to flash a different radio if you are rooted for better signal (that worked for my cell phone standby drainage) or flash a different kernal (try dream kernel I hear great things)

I was looking for a better and extended battery for my G2X, but after seeing how ugly the replacement back cover if you go with a bigger batt is, I decided not to. Couple days ago I saw that the stock battery is 1500 mAh and on Ebay I saw one made by Andida at 1980 mAh I gave it a shot..
I'm really happy with the results, it does make a big diference and I didnt have to get a new cover..
This is a great alternative...

It is a low brand in china, and it looks like the MOMAX brand.
It is sold for about 4$ in china.
I am pretty sure that the number 1980 is not real.
It can be used and use good, that's enough . Who care
It may not be 1980 but I notice that it can last as long as the stock battery if not a bit longer. Thanks OP for giving me alternate option than the huge 3500mAH battery that I've been using.

So I've had this battery for about a week now, and I'd say it performs about the same as the stock battery. (I don't have exact hour measurements though) It's nice having 2 batteries for the G2x though, since I don't have to worry about running out of power mid-day.
Fun thread. Which battery is better? I got the Anker batter but now i feel a little regretful as i think the Polarcell might be better..... The Anker seems good but i was expecting more and it charge slow too compared to my original samsung battery(thats 1 year 6 months old now).
My Polarcell battery life is very good. My record is over 7 hours of screen time.
I tried the stock battery with the same rom/kernel and it can't even get close to 7 hours. 4:30 hours at best.
Why can i find the polarcell battery. Whai is your ROM, your kernel to have a very good autonomie

So far the Anker aftermarket battery has been working very well as my 2nd battery.
samsung.com has it for $40, $50 for the kit, it is currently on backorder, i'm thinking they should have it in a week or two, just keep checking. also, don't forget to register your phone with them, you'll get an email for 50% off cellphone accessories priced no higher than $50, max 5 items.

Just bought the Anker battery, arriving Tuesday. Will be interested to see how it fairs considering I bought it brand new for only £10, with the official Samsung battery costing £35. As long as it fairs up relatively well, I'm not fussed about not having the NFC capability.

Used same branded batteries as spares for my Galaxy Nexus and they perform fine. You probably won't get the same as from the official battery but these are well worth it for those who need some extra juice and don't care about losing NFC.
A screencap of my 5200mAh battery on its initial charge.
I'm looking for a replacement battery for my S4. Since it's replacement it doesn't have to be as good. What scares me though is that those cheap ebay/dealextreme batteries might hurt my phone somehow (those golden batteries etc). Is this possible, or is it safe to use those 'fake' batteries?
Also I would love if you guys could recommend a decent replacement battery for a good price (even better with a wall battery charger).

I bought the Anker batteries. Get 2 batteries and a wall charger. The wall charger also has a USB port which can output 1A, which it pretty good to carry around if needed. I've read reviews how when these first came out it was a really tight fit, but it seems that they made adjustments because the ones I received fit in just fine, like the OEM ones.

Title-3X Battery for Samsung Galaxy SIV S4 GT-i9500 with External Charger 3250 mAh
worth it
I almost always buy the cheapo chinese batteries for my phones. Here are my findings:
They will last throughout the day about as long as genuine batteries... for the 1st year
After the 1st year, they will start to degrade.... depending on your use, lack of use, temperature, etc... I have some 2.5 year old chinese epic 4g batteries that still work.. but only last about 4 hours. My original battery will still go a good 12hrs. I only keep them around for emergencies, but I don't really use that phone anymore.
The cheapo chargers that come w/ it is very handy and usually work pretty well.
Depending on how much you use them, they will last you a couple years.
Why i think they are worth it:
For ten bucks, they are a great backup battery. By that I mean, when get home from work and my battery is almost dead.... I can swap out the battery for the rest of the evening and don't have to put my phone on the charger till bed.
I'm a normal smart phone user, a normal batter will last me the day most days. I don't game or do too many intensive things..
I get them because I know that I will get a new phone every 1.5 to 2 years... so why do my batteries need to outlast the phone?
Who shouldn't use them:
People who really drain their batteries. They simply won't go as many recharge cycles as a normal battery (by that I mean full empty to full charge).
Tips:
Mark your crappy batteries with a permanent marker. The chinese clones look so good that you probably can't tell the difference between them and a real on. Mark the fake ones so that you can use your real on days when you know you really need lasting power. This isn't so important the first 9 months... but after that it could be.
Watch for reviews on a good battery seller (if buying from ebay)... there are good cheap-o batteries and their are crappy ones. I like to let other people figure it out
