If this is true, sweet. I know that this doesn't replace the OEM battery but instead will plug into the USB Port instead. Or atleast I think. I know the mophey juice packs for iPhone work this way because its to hard to replace the battery and omg did it do wonders for that phone.

That's a sweet idea hopefully it doesn't interfere with the GPS like "thicker" batteries did on other devices.

It probably will in all honesty, but the great thing about it is, with this using the USB port to attach with, it will mean that removal will not cause your phone to shut off. If I remember correctly the EVO extended battery replaces the OEM battery and it hurt the GPS. So if you want to use GPS and the battery kills ur signal, pop it off and put it back on when you get there

This looks pretty sweet...

I will buy one when They are out. Since i dont use gps that much just calls games apps email and work this case and battery extender would really come in handy.

Couldn't agree more! If GPS is needed like mentioned above you can take off the case without it killing the phone! Can't wait for this to come out!

I havent been able to get more info on this case i know its not out yet and i did sign up to get and email when it comes out, and also for doing that i will get a discount on it. Dont know how much but anything is better than nothing.

Maybe it'll come out this month. They said they're releasing new products every month.

I'd love to have something like this to help my phone last throughout the day.

Charge On!

Hm, according to the website they will "personally email you with a nice discount code when a case becomes available (if it is not currently)". Thats worth getting their spam for a month!

I want it. Right now. Please.

I can not wait this should really help with battery life.

Yeah I think I had some trouble with it too.... Make sure everythung else is right and make sure everything that needs to be checked is.... I knew I typed the Captcha in correctly so I looked at the top of the form in red letters it told me it was because of something else lol....

Keep trying. I finally got in after like 25 attempts.

CAPTCHA is crap

Yeah Captcha sucks

Never heard of this... How long are they suposed to last? longer than our batteries or the same amount of time?

Probably the same but the fact that they charge in about 5 minutes makes them better than an extended battery in my opinion.... they're basically a never ending battery if you have your charger and energy source around every 8 hours or so, just go take a cigarette break and you'll have a full battery by the time your done lol I think this is the solution to quad+ core processors in smartphones....

Just left an Evo for the Infuse

Well today I put an ad on Craigslist for my HTC Evo w/Otterbox Defender case, CWM & MIUI.. It sold within 4 hours for $200.
I bought an Infuse last night and it should be here on Saturday. The same day that my case I ordered will be here... The Ballistic HC case. Red.. Love it!
I miss my Evo and going two days without a phone is going to suck. I'm glad I did the switch though and look very forward to getting an awesome new phone and case..
I plan to install MIUI on it the day I get it. Root it on it's first boot.
I should change my signature...

I love it. I never thought a phone could blow my Evo away like this. The screen is absolutely F'n amazingly beautiful. I'm very very happy with my Infuse. My wife likes it so much she's going to get one this week. (Sending her HTC Surround back within it's 30 days since purchase for an exchange)

Correct, the second one is it. The Ballistic HC case. You can keep the big rubber on it or you can leave it off like shown in my pictures. Either way it's one bad ass nice case that I would recommend to anyone who wants the best.

does it protect as good with out the big rubber on it?
i would use it as shown in the pic cause i dont like big rubbery cases

Epic accessories for sale!

I've recently upgraded early to the gnex and after having no luck on craigslist, I thought maybe I'd have more luck here selling the accessories I've collected for my epic over the years. Most importantly the 4 batteries and charger, which I've taken impeccable care of and would like to see go to another loving epic owner like myself. The batteries consist of 1 stock 1500 mah battery, 1 generic 1500 mah (it actually lasts rather long!), 1 1800 mah e4gt bat, and finally, a 2300 mah extended yaoboo with back cover. And the battery charger. I also have a pretty nice plastic white case I didn't pay very much for, and a completely ****ty mirrored screen protector that's so wildly ugly I'll just throw it in for free. All together, I payed about 100 bucks for this ****, and I figured 60 bucks would be a good second hand price. Although, I'm open to offers. I'm in the Denver area and willing to ship. Reply with questions! Thanks

Edit: I completely forgot to mention the microsd card I no longer need. Its 16 gbs and only a couple months old. The price for the batteries is now officially 40 bucks and 20 for the SD card. Or 50 if you buy em together

Since the batteries lose chargeabilty over time and the fact I just bout a new oem 1800 battery for 16.99 on amazon. I see the over all value of the package at around 30 bucks. Not making a bid, just being realistic.

Is 40 or thereabouts unreasonable in your opinion? I think the extended battery was like 30 bucks on it's own....

"Google" branded desktop stand for Nexus 4

I just spent 3 days at an annual client conference with our Google support team. Every year the Google reps bring cool swag for us to give away. This year they had these branded phone/tablet stands. As you'd probably guess they went like hot cakes but I made sure to snag a couple before the crowds had their pick. The design is extremely simple but works perfectly. One of the Google reps and myself spent some of our down time trying to see how much weight these things could handle. We were surprised to see how well it held up with 10lb objects.
It works perfectly with every phone we tried as well as the Nexus 7 and an iPad. I never thought I'd use a desktop stand but this works so well that I'll definitely use it at the office.
Anyway, here are some pics...

Oh, and for the record, even the Google reps were jealous that I got my hands on a Nexus 4. So feel special because this go around even the Google employees didn't get one. :highfive:

Cool. A drag that it's not available to everyone.

They were actually surprised when I told them that people would probably pay for these. I told them they should throw them up on the Google Play Store but they didn't think there would be any real demand.

That's nice me like

I totally want one of these!

Tons of companies were giving out this at CES. Obviously with a different brand name on it. There's a couple different ones, this style white/blue with the triangle style folding, also there's a more simple gray/black one that the stand rotates 360 onto itself so it's flat, I got that one.
I'm sure you can find these dang cheap on eBay.

Not to pooh pooh the excitement but these stands are pretty standard giveaways in the promotional swag world. I've got one myself but not "branded" with Google on it.

It's funny you should mention that. I was at a party a couple of weeks ago and this guy there was telling me he works at Google doing some Android stuff, so I pull out my phone. Then we head a super geek moment, talking Android and the Nexus 4, and he was saying how pretty much nobody at Google that he knows has the Nexus 4 and he has only seen his supervisor with one.
