Is it this one here?

Will it fit the SGH-T959V?

Does this work without having to buy an extended case as well?

Yup, it should be same your battery cover.

Ya I have it it fits great but I have a vibrant which is identical hardware wise to the galaxy s 4g. No extra case needed

Let us know how the battery life is after a week and/or if your phone blows up.

I've been testing since October the battery is a little thicker than stock but it fits great plus they are 20 bucks and come in Samsung packaging. Hey its only 20 bucks

Are these definitely genuine and not fakes? How big of a difference vs 1600?

I got the Anker one a long time ago. I always look around the vibrant and i9000 forums. The battery does make the phone weigh a little more but it fits perfectly under the normal cover and it does seem to improve battery life.

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

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.

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!

Infuse batteries

I bought (3) 1800mAh Batteries + Home Charger For Samsung Infuse 4G on Ebay for $13.99, free shipping. They're off brand, from China, took 2 weeks, but well worth it! Will come in handy while watching football and following three fantasy league scores!

LOL? Why would I buy a phone for it's lightness and thinness, just to put some heavy, ugly, fat-ass battery on it? Seems dumb to me. I am getting nearly 24 hours out of these cheap batteries, just trade them off the charger.

Those 1800s are probably only actually 1200s... The cheapo batteries rarely achieve anywhere close to advertised capacity.

True. I picked up 2 cheapos full well knowing that they're probably much less than "1800". But I also have an extra OEM battery that came with the charging dock. 4 batteries is more than enough even when I'm hanging around airports.
I don't mind the few seconds it takes me to swap out a battery.

They never claim to be OEM batteries and if you expect OEM for the average $4 each they cost you have other issues.

I haven't had a chance to do controlled discharge tests, but using a controlled charge test - it took less than 1915 mAh from 25% to full, so it's 2500 at best. Probably 2300-2400 or less.

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.

This. Lol. But, to answer the question, I've been using the Incipio Feather case pretty much since I got the phone 4 months ago. Its only come off to clean dust out of it every so often. As someone who has (almost) never used a case on a phone, this one doesn't bother me one bit.
Yeah I even read that thread and still had a nice brain fart and started a new one. My bad.

I liked the Motorola (Same as Verizon) OEM case and holder with kickstand best as far as functionality, but the pattern on the design plus the thickness didn´t really appeal to me. So I found the perfect replacement with the Puregear version. It´s stronger, thinner and the pattern is sooo much more discreet and elegant, its perfect for mae. Plus I can safely vouch that after 4 nasty falls, both the phone and the case are still absolutely 100% perfect and absolutely flawless, not a single blemish. Extremely satisfied!
