[Q] Anyone able to find a legit Infuse Battery Charger?

I am at my wits end here... I ordered 2 Infuse Battery Chargers (on eBay)... from 2 different sellers in Hong Kong. Clearly they haven't gotten the memo about the battery that fits the Infuse 4G, because BOTH sellers advertised the product as able to charge a Samsung Infuse 4G, yet both of the sellers sent a battery charger for the I9000.
Has anyone actually found one that is for the right battery? LOL. I know it's only cost me $4 each, but the wait only to be disappointed when the wrong product arrives drives me insane.
Thanks!

Someone mentioned here on the forums, you can use a samsung captivate battery. Same width, smaller height. So the user stuffed some paper bits in the remaining area so that the battery holds in place. Not a long-term solution, but if you need to do something about it, that's an option. I haven't tried it myself.

From my understanding you CAN... but the issue is if you stuff paper in there and your phone gets jostled, it may cause the power contacts to lose and re-connect, causing random reboots.
There are non-OEM Infuse batteries on eBay for $8 for 3... or $24 for one original.. is it really that big of deal to spend a couple bucks? It's like buying a Porsche and then cramming an after market air filter in that's half the size and surrounding it in tissue, hehe

I have 2 captivate batterys laying around and yes they are compatible. Just.wedge something in there to make.up for the room. Comes in handy for emergencys. They dont last as.long but o well right. Also i used the captivate battery charger to charge my infuse battery lol i know it dont fit right so i used a rubber band to hold it into place and yes it worked.

Well I got the "Samsung Infuse 4G 1800mAh 2 Battery+Dock USB CHGR Anker" on ebay from laptopmate_usa.
Includes 2 batteries plus a flimsy charger (still works fine however) and they work great in my experience.
I think it's ridiculous to pay full price for replacement batteries.

I have 2 ebay batteries and an extra OEM battery. The ebay batteries most certainly are NOT 1800 mAh. But they make good spares for traveling or extended movie watching.
When it comes to batteries, you definitely get what you pay for.

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ET-CGPK002GSTA - this did not exist on Samsung's site when the original poster posed their question.
It's also insanely expensive.

Same one I have.

I am confused with your question. If you are looking for a charger for the spare battery, Samsung sells it. If you are looking for a spare battery, samsung also sells it but is only 1300 mAh

3800 mAh battery for 20 bucks?

You probably get what you pay for, but here's the link anyway:

This doesn't seem like a run of the mill chinese cheap battery. Packaging looks very professional and the company itself has amazing ratings. I would say this is a pretty safe buy. Its a company that designs the batteries in canada.
And with amazon you're well proctected. Ebay tends to always back the buyer up as well, but I always felt amazon was more legit. I have no need to ugly up my phone with a massive battery, nor do I need the extended time (stock battery suits me fine) but for someone that can't shell out a lot of money this seems like a solid deal

Yes and no. I bought a Mugen from amazon, and everything went fine. It died after about 3.5 months, and Mugen wouldn't replace it because I didn't buy direct from them.
So, most reputable companies who sell direct on amazon are OK. Mugen doesn't sell direct, so avoid them on amazon.
I'd like to see how badly this battery bulges out the phone. I've seen pictures of the galaxy note with this battery, and it looks... big.

I'm willing to test it out. I placed the order and I'll report back once I get it.

That's probably the exception. I've never had a bad experience when returning an item through Amazon.

The reviews for the Galaxy S2 battery are pretty good.
And there's tons of S2 users out there. So I highly doubt this company makes crap batteries

I'm telling you, the Mugen pays for itself. Especially if you have the CM9 Alpha builds.

Hmm... I don't see any reviews for the product. I'd buy it but the price worries me for how cheap it is. I mean... I like cheap, but... there are no reviews to be found which worries me.

Here is my thing about batteries. Last summer when I was on the hunt for an amazing lipo battery that would make my rc car run the fastest,coolest, longest right. Well them batteries were about 60 bucks, but what I had found through my research was there were only about 4 companies world wide who produce lipo-cells, so why waste 60 bucks when I could get a 2-cell for 12 bucks. Well it only lasted the summer because I wasn't very responable with it but its perfomance was on par with the more expensive batteries and so was temp ect. It don't have to cost the most the be effective, sometimes I feel this blacknightavalon works for mugen, because I promise you people 100 for a phone battery, they seen you coming

And yeah, I've no doubt Mugen makes good batteries. But the fact that you *must* buy from them and nowhere else in order to get any sort of service makes them a bit shady.

I would never move to f**king China. Not unless they got rid of their Maoist regime. No, I just know a good battery when I'm using one, and I think the Ankers are pretty good too (as long as you order the two-pack with the wall charger).

The battery cover in the Amazon picture is clearly not for a MT4GS, but maybe it's just the stock photo they use for all this company's batteries.
Anyhow, for $20, I took a chance.

The company as a whole seems to make quality batteries, so I doubt they would skimp on our phone. And it is an actual company, not a "no name generic" battery. And as I said before, if you look up batteries for other phones from the same company, they generally have great reviews
Good point on the picture. That battery cover does not seem to fit our phone, which means the picture is a stock picture.

im confused, i googled mugen battery and 2 different links come up. not sure which is the official link.

Could you post pictures when you get it all set up?
Personally, I'd go for a slim extended battery if they offered it, otherwise it won't work with the dock. Still, if this works well, for 20 bucks it's a no-brainer.

I've been looking for a cheap extended battery since I ditched the G2. I had a $15 3500mAh eBay battery on it and it worked just fine. I'll probably order this after I hear what y'all have to say about it.

Finding a NEW Skyrocket battery

I'm in Canada, with Rogers and have had a SR for about 18 months. Time for a new battery mid-contract.
But Rogers doesn't sell them any more. Nor does Best Buy, Future Shop, the Source etc. There are lots of phone vendors around, but I find that they sell them at $20 - $30, and they must be used, because even after a few cycles and battery calibration, they are usually worse than my old battery. I've bought two from Pacific Mall, they were awful.
I've been told that unless Samsung sells it to you, it's a refurbished battery. Don't even know what that might be.
So with the retailers no longer stocking batteries for non-current phones, where does one get a NEW Skyrocket battery in Canada?
Also looking for a Verizon Samsung Nexus Extended Battery (2200) as per another thread here. They are gone! Nobody has them. I'd love to try one on my Skyrocket, as it's a higher capacity and most say the fit is not an issue, but nobody seems to sell those either. Ebay sellers are out of stock with no idea if they are coming back in.
Is this what it's come to? Do you throw your phone away after 18 months???

I'm in the states but it looks like amazon.co has a bunch of market sellers who have EBL1D7IBA the main worry would be if it's really used.

I have a Nexus extended that i'd part with. Used it in my SR till it broke. Now i'm using my girls until I upgrade.. just hit me up in PM with an offer..
Have the oem battery from my SR too.. obviously used, but figured i'd throw that out there too.

Its here if you want it. Its $50 though..

Check ankerdirect on ebay or amazon

If you can have someone in the US order it for you Sprint is offering the OEM Galaxy Nexus battery (2100 mAh) with battery door for free with US $6.50 for shipping you would have a steal at your hand.
I ordered one for my SR last time they had the same offer and though the extended battery is a snug fir under the regular SR back cover it does last about 2-3 hours longer with moderate to heavy use as compared to the original.
Here is the quote;
"Sprint offers the Samsung Extended Battery Bundle for Galaxy Nexus for $49.99. Coupon code "BATTERY1" makes it free. With $6.50 for shipping, that's the lowest total price we could find by $28. It includes a 2,100mAh lithium ion extended battery and battery door."

Was just looking up batteries for the my skyrocket when I stumbled into this thread. That's an AMAZING deal. Ordered one and repped you.
Thanks!

I just ordered this online too. Does this ship to your house or do you have to pick it up at a sprint store? mine says pick up in store? I guess it doesn't really matter.
Also, Does this battery really last longer than the OEM one? i've had mine for about 18 months now and its time for a new one. Can't beat $6.50 though. Awesome find!

I've found lots of batteries at Pacific Mall in Markham, Ontario

Well if you are willing to wait, i bought a couple of batteries from AliExpress.com and they have been working preetty well, both of them (i ordered different to test them out) last longer than the original...
I still use from time to time the original batt, but the honest truth is that the 2 chinese are my main batteries.

I ordered a 2500 mla(?) battery from amazon.ca for mine. Works awesome. Fits in without any mods.

[Q] NOOT 2800 mAh Battery

Hello everyone this is my review on the extra battery or replacement battery for you Samsung Galaxy S5. Thus battery is made by NOOT products and is available for 10 bucks on Amazon. Also free 2 day shipping is your a amazon prime member. Ok enough of plugging amazon on ti the real deal how did it work because we have all seen that great deal for 3 batteries and a charger for our phone for 15 bucks. The problem is they barely workif tthey work at all. Nm
Now there are they new fancy named companies witha ssimilar deal but someiof them even suck. Have no fear I already did the testing here NOOT products (Atleast there batterie, have nnot tried anything else yet) are the real deal. I have 3 Galaxy S5's in my house and we all have at least 2 back up batteries and we all use NOOT because they work as good as the OEM ones. I'm not just saying it to plug NOOT I could care less just your friendly XDA product reviewer (Just starting on here but have been for a while). I love my gadgets for my phones so I buy everything I think is cool for my phone or tablet. So I figure I can spend a few minutes and tell my XDA family member about my latest add on to my phone gadgets. I will tell it like it is good or bad. I will be posting several other on stuff I have already been using so is you been thinking about buy a glass screen protector or a wireless charging Back or card wait a day and read my next reviews.
Thanks
Any questions please ask.

For $10 you can't really go wrong with the very quick shipping from Amazon and an emergency backup battery.

I got them when they were on sale for $5 dollar with a promo code a while back. They work really well, I say about 80 to 90% of the oem time capacity, which was good for the price.
However on a hot afternoon, i left a battery inside my car ... the battery expanded (got fat) and won't fit in the phone anymore.

This. Apparently I have the most helpful favorable review on amazon for it right now, and while I liked the battery when it still worked, I need to edit my review on there as my battery has also gotten fat. It's weird though because I didn't leave it in my car or anything. Battery worked fine for about a month and a half and then all of a sudden it started dying really quick once it reach 30-40%. After several days the battery life started getting shorter and shorter until it didn't even last me 2 hours. Pulled off the back cover and I realized it was getting fatter. I also got it when it was just $5, so I shouldn't really complain, but I contacted the company twice about a replacement (since the product comes with a warranty). They haven't gotten back to me yet and it has been over a month since. Kinda frustrating that their customer service is so lame. Other than that I thought the battery was a good replacement for the price. I've since ordered backups from Caseology on amazon and they seem to work just as well as the Noot one when i first got it.

Appreciate the heads-up. Made an order last week, and got my charger and batteries today. For $35, i really really cant complain about getting OEM quality batteries and chargers (right now, i am planning on keeping my V10 running as long as i cna, as an audio player once i retire it as a phone)...

two batteries and one charger ($20 + 15). Didn't need two chargers and my phone, but the batteries are useful, so....

Last week I've tried to place an order on the bundle via guest and registered user but either the battery or cradle shows its out of stock on checkout. Online chat and phone support mentioned that both were in stock at the time. I've used different browsers such as IE, chrome, mobile chrome & finally mobile dolphin. Any suggestions?

Thanks so much for posting this! Battery and a cradle for $20 is a hell of a deal.

I wonder how long this sale is going to go on for, I didn't see anything about that. Even the $15 is cheap for OEM batteries. Standards would make batteries cheaper, but right now all the companies see the huge profit margins on accessories and don't want to allow that market to develop.

just saw this and got me the bundle for $20. what a sweet deal this is

Damn, why doesn't the German LG have this. Forget sales, it looks like they don't sell the battery or cradle at all...

Thank you for the tip. Confirmed when adding V10 battery and charger to cart price is $20
