I have used this now for about a month, I wanted to share what my G2 is doing as far as these batteries. For eight bucks I cannot complain.

Well for me it was a matter of a battery that worked over six to eight hours, I do a lot of camping and power is not available so it was more important to me to have a phone. It does make it rather bulky however not to me anyway ugly.

Even a stock battery goes for a lot more than 8 hours.... With data disabled, my stock battery kept my phone alive for a whole WEEK once (very very light use).

I looked all over eBay and all I see are cases for the international HOX and I really want to be able to have one that works for our phone. I remember mugen mentioning that they would have one out already, but they said that over a month ago. Are companies not making it because HTC's sales in the recent quarter was extremely low compared to the projected numbers? If anybody has found one please let me know I love everything about this phone but I hate lugging around a charger, and I don't always have access or the time to plug it in.
PS I don't want to hear anybody come in and say they get 4 hours of screen time blah blah blah on whatever mods they do. That's great, but 4 hours of screen time equals about 6 hours of total usage which is only half the day for me. I'm a college student and I do a lot on my phone whether it be in class taking notes, or on conference calls.
And I'm not complaining about the phone, just lack of this particular accessory. I believe this is a damn near perfect phone I just want the juice to make it even more perfect!
There's no battery cases that are either good or work for the S4 variant as the pins are placed differently.
There are however external battery packs that are relatively small and provide a punch. Had one for the Sammy Vibrant and was super easy to hide in back pack, as you are a college student.

Yeah, I ordered one of these in preparation for Comic Con:

Pretty happy with it so far, and the price is definitely right.

Haven't fully tested, but judging by the MaH, I would expect to be able to charge it two or three times over at least.
Actually judging by the mah I'd say it would charge it around 4 times.
10,000/1,800 is a little more than 5 so its safe to assume 4 times over.

These external chargers actually lose quite a bit of power in translation... I think I remember reading it's a 35% loss but don't remember exactly, so that 10000 mah is really more like 6500 for the phone (somewhere along those lines, anyways).

i used lots of extended batteries but not a 5200 size yet so i was leary of size and weight and most about back cover but i was very please with all 3. fit and feel were perfect for me so no issues there. cover has a gloss finish that shows some smudges but thats to be expected imo. price was $21.99 and free shipping which i thought was reasonable then after using it for 1 full cycle i really liked the price.back cover is also easy to remove and its much stronger than stock samsung cover which i also liked. overall i'm very pleased with the unit. got some pics to try and show some views of size/finish and overall usage stats. these stats are from 100% on first charge. i'm on second charge and stats thus far are even better and i will try to update this thread with those stats. if i missed anything you guys wanna know please ask or pm me. also forgot to add NFC (Near Field Communication): a set of standards for establishing communication between smart devices. The function is applied broadly in contactless transactions (such as Google Wallet), data exchange, simpler Wi-Fi setup, and more.
Why does it dip and come back up ? You charged it? What ROM is this?
Do a test without being on WiFi the whole time and without plugging it in.

I was thinking that you mean on Stock Firmware and all aps that man yould use i with all of that i think i got point here i was using CM and AOSP and my bat was great but without bunch of things
Actually looks pretty good to be fair. good to know you have wifi on 24/7 and screen brightness on full. 2days + with that sort of usage is great, despite what some people have put. especially for a 5200.
just as a note, can you say what apps you've used / how often through the day.
e.g. i use facebook for a good few hours.
emails check and sync regularly.
couple of hours every day browsing xda forums.
etc etc etc
that kind of thing i got myself a 7500 zero lemon battery and it is so very bulky, so im thinking about downsizing slightly to something thats still going to perform well. this looks like a good candidate
why is the last photo photoshopped to be thinner?
Pay $2 more for Anker brand IMO
hey there...
I think my battery is damaged. it's inflated and with paying HD game it last less than 2 hours. while when I bought my phone I could play 4-5 hours of HD games.
now, since where I live, there are lots of useless Chinese fake batteries, I want to know which one battery is good and how can I make sure that it's orginal.
thanks.
Order straight off samsungs website. If you want you can register your phone on the Samsung website and get emailed a 50% off up to 50$ discount so the battery and wall charger will be 25$

+1 to that! But you may also want to consider buying a cheap spare to carry with you in case you run out of juice sooner than you can get to a charger.
Also, be careful not to buy batteries that are manufactured more than a year ago. It is a known limitation of Lithium-Ion/Polimer based batteries (used in most phones/tablets these days) that their capacity diminishes over time. Even if they are not used, in a year or so they start to "go bad" and are almost completely crap after 2 years. You'll get maybe 70% of the rated capacity, and they won't hold the charge well at all. It's not a defect, just a downside of the technology. You can mitigate this by storing them at 40% charge in a cool place, but how many stores are actually going to do that?

I am not sure about that, but it is made for I9070 as I see. I never used it.
I use the 3500mAh battery. I am from India and bought it from ebay 45 days ago. So far the new battery is doing a decent job. It lasts over a day and half on extreme use. I primarily use my phone for web browsing, ROM flashing, gaming and video playback. [email protected] 1.1GHz and yet battery life is decent as mentioned above. There is no overheating. If you buy this, on your first run make sure you use the phone till 0% and then charge it upto 90-100%. The first time you charge do not use your phone(Unless emergency calls/SMS).
Ofcourse the phone looks ugly and fat. But if you wont mind looks and desire better juice opt for this.
Good Luck.

I agree, I also have such.
Usually the quality of this batteries isn't so good... After 1-2 month of use they lose efficiency.

From what I've read else where Zerolemon are quite decent. I've just started using on of these and there's a noticeable increase over my stock battery. Not incredible, but I get through a day easily now, even with heavy use.

I have these batteries too as well as ZL's 7500mah battery, but the thing about charging to full and draining to empty is a myth. Look up some research on Lithium Ion, it's pretty widely agreed that the practice of "battery calibration" is obsolete when it comes to the active chemical properties of lithium, which is actually healthiest at 50%.
