GorillaGadgets 3500 mAH Battery - Fascinate Accessories

Just ordered it tonight. Anybody else ever used one ?? If not I will post a review after I receive it. wish me luck.

Good luck, the price seems right for that item but those huge cases always scare me away. Let us know what you think of the speaker if you can. Thanks!

Will do...hopefully will receive it tomorrow. Was thinking about speaker as well. I hope its still as good

Got the battery in today. Seems to be working. Been on 58% the last 45 mins. As for the case its a PITA to take off (and no more soft case protection) but its a nice lookin case so cant complain too much. And for sound, well, you can still hear everything but with a slight muffle. Its not horrible but Volume+ seems to help but i think with any big battery cases you will run into this.
Will update later with results. (If this battery ever dies) before its first "full charge".

It's been around a month now, how are you liking the battery, any cons?

Seeing as ive never tried any other batteries i dont have any cons and cant compare it. Its still holding up. It lasts a full day of heavy usage. (Music, texts, facebook, calls and games) so its perfect for me and cant complain. It never runs out by the time i go to bed and throw it on the charger.
My only actual tests with barely any usage (basically phone on idle) and keeping screen on with gps and wifi gave me a little over 12 hours of screen on time.
But actually using apps and everything with heavy usage i get around 6-7 hours of screen on time and well over 1 day of phone on time.
Any questions just ask me.

Car ****, case, and extended battery

Wanting to purchase all of the above. any combos that will all fit together? Also considering zagg sparq instead or both. My battery is going dead halfway through the day. Car **** will be used mostly for charging and the occasional audio and gps. case is of course for protection. Not that I am abusive, just hear so many horror stories off small drops

Ok have you deleted battery stats. There is no reason for a battery die halfway through day. Mine last over 48 hours on a single charge. I had the extended batery and its litteraly more then double the physical size and not even close to twice the capacity. It will not work with any cases and doesn't work with the dicks........ when I got my regular batery I couldn't even tell I lost battery capacity. Just be sure there aren't any apps in the background killing it also. Plus I heard GPS is a killer if you leave it on. Haven't tested this.
Usually running pandora all day while I am working, figures I could use the sparq in one rear pocket with a usb going across to charge all day long. I am standing all day.
Extended battery is out of the picture. Any cases that fit the car DOCK?
Just drained until phone shut off and fully charged while phone was off twice, then booted to cwm and deleted battery. Hopefully will increase life.

Drained until phone shut off and charged until 100% twice while it was all off, booted cwm and deleted battery stats. Left pandora on overnight in hopes to find a dead battery do I could repeat one last time. Phone was at after 8 hours of pandora.seems that method fixed my issues.

Anker 2x 1800mAh

http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Batteri...=UTF8&qid=1326384240&sr=8-1#productPromotions
This is a great deal on Amazon, two 1800 mAh batteries plus a charger for 20 bucks right now. I recommend it.
I just bought these a few days ago and got to use them yesterday. I was amazed... 300 mAh more than my year-old stock battery and it lasted forever. On my normal battery I get maybe 9 or 10 hours of light usage, data off all day unless I'm using it for tapatalk, etc. and then the phone dies. On this new one I got it up to 14 hours and it was down to 40%.. only put it on the charger because I had to sleep.
And that was 14 hours of medium to heavy usage... I had two batteries with me so I really wanted to stress them and see how long they would last. I left data and sync on all day, streamed music for about an hour with google music, used google talk to chat with friends, played fruit ninja, watched youtube videos, downloaded Big Gigantic's new album over 3G... etc and still the battery lasted way longer than my stock one. I didn't even have to worry about needing to switch batteries which was what I bought them for, I didn't expect this great of a result from it.
All in all, I recommend these if anyone is looking at buying extended batteries. It's a great price right now, the things charge in the phone and come with a wall charger with USB ports and a battery charger that can charge whichever one your phone isn't. I've never been more happy with the battery life on my phone, I don't think you could go wrong with these.
good work>>>>>>

Battery life has been a much welcomed improvement, and being able to just swap a fresh one from the charger and keep going really cant be beat. Thanks for the find bud.

well I hardly use my extra battery, I usually just use the one because I don't need a second. so I charge the extra one and keep it in my pocket, and when I need it it is almost dead. I don't know if it's not charging, or if it's just discharging somehow while being in my pocket for a couple of days.
Sent from my ICS SCH-i500
It could be discharging. I have noticed if I take a battery off the charger for a couple of hours and then pop it back on it will begin to charge again. It seems odd that it would lose so much charge after only a few days but who knows. I always alternate back and fourth so that the batteries wear evenly. I would try that for a few days and see if it helps. If not call Amazon or banker and see if you can get a replacement. On a side note how the hell are you getting days of life? I get maybe a day of medium heavy usage. Also I'm in a 90 to 100dbm environment pretty much all day though.
Sent from my SCH-I500 running Kang's CM-7 with Glitch 13.1
I'll try the suggestions, thanks.
With my usage, it just depends on what I do.. on a regular day I have wifi most of the day and stream google music and check xda and Craigslist, and SMS... besides the constant streaming it's average usage. I keep my screen dim because I'm usually inside. That gets me about 16 hours.
Today in addition to those things, I used GPS Navigation and my phone to make calls to get directions and navigate to a car to look at, I played with flashing a couple of mods, and I wrote a google doc going back and forth between docs and browser to finish up my homework on the way. plus I've been outside today so my screen has been on around half brightness so I can use it. I am at about ten hours now and I have 20% battery.

I bought one two days ago, I've been waiting patiently for an extended battery with white back panel. I should have it Monday or Tuesday and I will report back here with my experience as it seems no one else is taking the time to do so.
Can you give us an idea of how thick the battery itself is?
100% thicker than stock battery?
50%?
25%?

I would say 50-75% thicker, the battery life is pretty damn good, about 16 hours with pretty heavy use, 4 hours screen on, constant Facebook checking, brightness at 45%, plus its not even that noticeable in pocket.

I'm happy with it, I finally feel like I can do whatever I want as much as I want all day and not have to feel like I need to charge as often as possible. Again I'm very pleased with it so far.

Hey all,
I'm going into day 3 with a full charge on this battery. I posted some pictures here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25310131&postcount=6 that show the difference in phone width with and without, bare battery width difference and the color difference between back plates on the white model.
I got my qcell battery about three days ago and so for its lasting pretty well. Im on my third day of using it(charged the battery at night) and its steadily been improving. Right now I'm at 68% right now at 9PM and it has lasted over 14 hours with brightness on low, listening to music all day, texting sporadically, playing an online game for over an hour, some youtube videos, and syncing 2emails and engaget. Screen was on for over 2 hours. I only have one bad thing to say which is it sometimes gets really hot and I have to shutdown phone to cool it down, maybe its my cf or something like that.

3500 mAh battery

So its been a full week of testing this battery on my infuse and no lie its amazing. It last about 2x the original battery with full usage. Use as in playing game for 1hour and 30 mins= average 13% drain. Use of Facebook,YouTube, and generally anything that uses the web for about a good 6 hours(not in use every min) average 27% drain. Then next day still have a good amount to last me through the day. First day around 55-65% and second 49-2 or dead. Its really nice, infuse not as heavy(pretty much same weight). Case fit perfect, durable and nice feel to it.

Something like this?
http://www.amazon.com/Green-Externa...347898124&sr=8-9&keywords=3000+mah+power+bank
Looks pretty good, only $17.25
Assuming you want to carry something extra around, I guess there are two possibilities:
Option 1 - carry spare battery (charged to something like 80%... avoid 100% to extend battery life)
Disadvantage: Have to open up phone (always possibility to contaminate) to replace battery, possibly daily if that's your pattern. Might confuse your battery monitoring widget program and possibly the built-in battery %-remaining feature.
Advantages: In the time it takes to swap battery and boot back up, you're done.
Option 2 - carry a power bank which can charge your battery in a few hours.
Disadvantage - takes a few hours plugged in to get back. Doesn't really have much way to know how much juice is left other than LED when fully charged
Advantage - don't have to open up phone or reboot.
Thanks for the info. Since I did spend some money (a whole $8 on my 3500 mAh), I will try to get use to it rather than switching. Hopefully, someone comes up with a case.
However, that is an excellent idea with the battery power back up for when we lose power (happens more than I would like). Keeping one of them around would have some advanatages.
Edit: cheap ebay 3500 mAh is now draining faster than my regular battery. Might not need to worry about the case...

Hows the battery doing 5 days later?
I experienced a drain on the 3500 and the 1750 stock battery for several days. I had to switch ROM builds but didn't put the other battery back until last night. Right now it is plugged in so I will report back in a day or two.
Edit. Using it two days now and it drains as fast as the 1750. Will give it one more day then back to OEM and Bodyglove case.

Battery lasted one day running really well and the next day (after recharge) drained twice as fast. Went back to standard battery and am using this as a back up now. Very disappointed in the quality.
I tried one of these when I had a captivate and had the same issue. First charge was great but it got to where it lasted the same as the original battery. You have to go Anker or Mugen for descent quality batteries.
I might check it out. Thanks.

I just got in my 3500mAh battery from the ebay seller known as battery gallery, and at 1213; I still have 80% of my battery left, and I unplugged it from the charger at 0800 I consider this pretty impressive, but it's only day 1 of using the battery.
I wish you better luck then I had. First day was good, second day okay, third day someone pulled the plug on the drain. Drop very fast. Of course I could have just gotten a bad battery.

Laza 3800mAh Battery + Cover

Since I couldn't find any detailed information or pictures of the Laza 3800mAh Battery + Cover and the Laza Smooth Case so I decided to purchase them both for $40.47 on Amazon. Even though my phone is white and the back cover is black, it's unnoticeable once the case is on.
I cannot post links yet since I am a new user but I will post them in a bit. I have compiled a few images of the battery, cover, case, and phone. If you have any questions please feel free to ask them.
Here is a youtube video I recently made regarding the cover, case, and battery. Enjoy! (4/10/13)

Re: Zala 3800mAh Battery + Cover
I'm still in the process of testing it and documenting it. So far I get over 16 hours with more than 30% still remaining. You can easily get 24 with about 4 hours of screen time. You can even push it to 5 if you watch a movie. But I think spending that much time on your phone is unnecessary.

Dang, you're spending 2-4 hours in the gym everyday? You're either freaking massively strong, or you're looking at yourself in the mirrors too much.

even pro power lifters don't spend that much time at once... your either over working or you stand around and talk
of course I could be wrong and will never know as this is the internet, but that's my experience anyway lol. Even the great Arnold spent no more than 1 1/2 hours. Granted, he worked out twice a day, but were talking one shoot here
Re: Zala 3800mAh Battery + Cover
The first 2 pictures show the device always on WiFi. I easily got a day and a half with way over 7 hours of screen time. The next 2 pictures show the device with about 8 hours on 3g and a 2 hour phone call. This made the battery last only 18 hours but I still consider this a full day. Great battery, buy it if you don't think the stock one is good enough for you!

Believe me it's an addiction, between my main lifts for the day, core and cardio, the hours add up.
If you worked out regularly you would understand.

Do you even lift bro? I can spend 2 hours in the gym easily. On a more serious note this is about the battery not about working out.

Bench: 275
Dead lift: 390
Squat: 450
Dumbbell Shoulder Press:100
Curl:65
All for reps @ 5'11 194, 16% so I gotta lose a little more lol
But back on topic im not a fan of these batteries, yes they add significant life to your phone but at the tradeoff of several ounces and significant bulk. Extended batteries don't fit into pockets too well in my experience
Thanks
Thanks lol, don't know how I missed that.

I had a good laugh
Thanks for your review though. I've ordered this setup as well, it comes in next week.
I think this tip posted by user 'hitekredneck' in another thread was so good it might as well be posted in here too. I've used this tip with the stock battery and I'm having a big improvement in how long it lasts. Running CM10.1

No, I use nothing at all. Just best use practices and common sense. One more thing I might mention. After doing the overnight charge routine I always shut my phone completely down and let it sit for a minute or two before starting it back up. If you use CPU Spy to check deep sleep cycles you will see why. If I do not shut down as mentioned my phone will still go into deep sleep but not as consistently, nor for as long, as it does when I do the shut down and restart after charging. Also, when powering on, if you have to wait for more than 3 or 4 seconds holding the power button before feeling the device vibrate, pull the battery for 30 seconds, put it back in a try again. Deep sleep is never consistent for me when I have to hold the button down for 8-10 seconds before I feel the vibration signaling the startup sequence.

That's way too long for one session. Some research would explain why. Yes, I lift bro.

NFC laza
It was not commented on so I figure I would add my two cents in:
The Laza battery has a NFC coil in the back of the battery, just like the stock one. Some of the cheap extended batteries leave this feature out.
After testing the Stock Battery NFC coil vs the Laza Battery NFC coil I can confidently say:
There is no difference in pick up distance or read/write speed on a Type A (ISO/IEC 14443 type A) Mifare 1k chip ( same thing as a Samsung Tec-tile)
Yes and No
When I ordered my battery they were out of stock of the NFC batteries. So instead of waiting a month for them to ship the NFC battery I asked them to ship me a non-NFC battery. So sadly I don't have NFC capabilities =(.

I ran into the same thing ... But it took me filing a claim a claim to find out after 3 weeks of waiting had to do a refund
