[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.

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

HTC 2750mAh extended battery $39 at Verizon store

i was planning to buy the Seidio extended but found out about this sale & decided to buy it.

That is a great price. I got mine for around $41 after tax. That's with a 25% discount. When did you buy it?

I bought the ext. battery a few months ago, but just started using it regularly last week. Witht he Seidio ext. cover and case, the phone is a brick, but I love it. Ext battery lasts me easily all day with heavy use.

the thunderbolt is a bust.. It needs to look like a freaking brick and to feel like one in order to function like it should out of the box.
It would be nicer if it didn't have the hype going in.. this phone is really all hype, as there are many phones already better then this phone in a short time span, without nearly half as much hype.
bust

get laid noob

hahaha, start a thread slamming the TB and go on every post to complaint. think you are the noob here. i am totally happy with it, i get 10+hrs easy on a custom rom, if that was/is your complaint.
well, you could always get a different phone...and i am sure you will find faults with it.
i am happy with the dev's working on the TB and putting out amazing ROM's. think you shoudl try them out before starting up.

I agree. The extended battery works great for me. It's not as bad as some people make it seem. I for sure don't think its a "bust". Pros outweigh the cons for me.

I got the HTC extrended battery & cover from my local Verizon store about two weeks ago for ~$40 after tax due to my company discount. It is so nice not to have to worry about how much I surf the net, text or talk on the phone. Even after 12 hours of moderate use my battery averages ~50%, which is not too shabby.
I also bought the Seidio Active Extended case, but was not too impressed with the plastic kickstand and overall bulk. Believe it or not, I ended up using the High Gloss Silicone Cover for Extended Battery case that I purchased for ~$15 at the Verizon store. Though using the power/volume buttons was a little tough until the case was broken-in, it just feels less bulky and seems to offer better protection than the Seidio case (IMHO).

Got my extended 2 months ago and couldn't be happier. I went in the Verizon store complaining about battery life and how I can't use this phone anymore and they gave me the battery for $20 to shut me up Lol

Other Options
If you don't want to get an extended battery but you want some extended time there are some good deals on batteries on amazon. I saw on there you can get 2 regular 1400 mah batteries plus a wall charger for the batteries for $20. All the reviews seemed positive too. It's really just another option, and cheaper too.

Is it still on sale I need it bad!!
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App

Do it. It bulky no question, but the added bulk actually makes it easier to hold. And I use the pi** out of my phone and it lasts from 6:30am until the following morning without touching a charger. I'm running chingy's 3d...but I suspect it would do that on just about on any custom ROM.

agreed, bought that deal, plus an extra battery charger for about 5 bucks so I have 2 batteries always ready to go.

What are you doing to make your battery drain so fast? I use my phone on AO5PTH3ORY with cooked in kernal and I am getting about 10 hours + when usage steady all day, on WiFi 3g/4g, email, text, internet. Try to flash a different radio if you are rooted for better signal (that worked for my cell phone standby drainage) or flash a different kernal (try dream kernel I hear great things)

I got 2 batteries off Ebay with an external wall charger for less than 10 bucks, and if you want to pay 5 bucks more you can get 3 batteries. Once I flashed to AOSP Rom I have not needed my extra batteries I have been unplugged for 7 hours with moderate use and I am still at 77%

Discount on Official Samsung Accessories

FYI for those of you just shopping around for something to buy for your new GS4. I registered my GS4 on Samsung's website ( http://www.samsung.com/us/support/register/product ) and by doing so, you get a coupon for 50% off any accessory under $50. To my knowledge, there's no mention of it anywhere on the registration page, but I just got an email.
Of all the things under $50, the one that caught my eye was another 2600mAH battery (listed at $39.99). While steep and you can get 3rd party batteries for cheaper, the 50% brings it to $20. Not too shabby. Other stuff under $50 are bluetooth earpieces, flip covers (not S-version), and a couple chargers and even the Galaxy Multimedia Dock.
Fine print shows that shipping is $3.95 unless your order is over $49.99, which then it's free.
EDIT: Oh, the so called "Galaxy S 4 Spare Battery Charging System" for $49.99 includes a 2600mAH battery, so that might be a better buy than the battery itself because the case acts as a holder/case you can charge at the same time. 50% off means you'd get the case for a $5 difference than the regular battery after discount.

Never hurts to register though "just in case".

I just noticed that. I think though, you have to move your cart to backorder. What this does is reserve one for you (and they email you) when they actually do get them in stock. I just reserved that extra charger/battery and supposedly they'll email me when they have it in stock.

Yes your correct. I'm curious if they'll charge you immediately, or give you the option to checkout when it comes available. I've been ding for the light blue protective case, but I believe BB will have it in stock within the next few days. Amazing already is out of stock. But I'm sure within time, things will be ready to go. Hopefully lol! I miss my spare battery. I love that on the S3

They don't charge you. There's no way for you to put your payment info. At least when I did it, it just sent me to a page saying my order was placed and when it arrives, i have an option to go to a special checkout page.
So I guess it's more of a "preorder" thing for 50% off.

stratosphere ii oem extended battery?

was checking amazon for extended batts for my new relay and noticed that most/all said they fit both the relay and the i415 stratosphere 2/ii. so i searched for i415 batteries and found an actual samsung 3000mah unit - http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00C2ZEU4S/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?qid=1402385505&sr=8-4&pi=SL75
you can see that it's both 3.8v and 3000mah. the watt-hours listed on the flip side are almost double the stock one in my relay. there's another listing that also comes w/ the door for just a few bucks more, or some listings w/ just the door. the door has a verizon logo on it, but i bet a little thinner or nail polish remover would fix that.
for as cheap as it is, i'm willing to try it out. i will get the one w/ the stratosphere door. i'll also be buying one of the generic ones that actually says relay and comes w/ a door, since it looks like the camera opening might be slightly different. will compare fitment and battery life and of course post back here.
unless of course this has already been tried and failed...

sounds like the one i just ordered. it's currently on the slow boat from china so i'll see it end of month if i'm lucky. now that my contract at vzw is officially up, i'll be going to tmo on friday to pick up some sim cards. yes, tmo is offering to pay your ETF, but the catch is you have to buy a phone from them AND trade in your old one. well they wouldn't sell me a relay as part of the deal and my droid4 supposedly has zero tradein value, so i had to wait out my contract. also sucks that i had to buy another sgs3 for my wife - her verizon one would technically work for voice/text with a tmo sim (in theory) but data would be like 2g speeds. no thanks. hopefully i can sell the vzw s3 (and some redundant accessories like otterbox/etc) to make up the difference.
meanwhile i've already rooted the relay and am about to try out liquidsmooth.

well the mpj 5000mah batt died and now i'm not having any luck getting warranty service. earlier this month it got very hot and swelled up to the point that the back cover no longer closes. bought in june, arrived in august (slow bot indeed) and died in early march. just over 7 months.
might try the strat2 batt this time since i dont want to wait another month for one to be shipped from china again.

I just put a Statosphere II battery (the Polar one linked above) in my wife's Relay. Zero issues, and WAY easier than fitting the bigger battery that required shaving down the back (from Nardholio's thread). That battery died after just a few months, so fingers crossed this Stratosphere II battery last longer (or my wife decides she can give up her physical keyboard!).

It's a 2100mAh battery w/NFC that fits in the stock relay back (there's actually some extra room in there).

Ooh that does sound nice. Im beginning to regret ordering another standard OEM one from china. All the good batteries are understandably in America and have ridiculous postage costs to Australia. I hope the polar works out. It might be the next one I get.

[Q] Where do you by your batteries?

So I've seen many threads concerning ebay+batteries = fake. I'd like to ask you guys where you get the not-so-fake batteries from (online). I've seen a couple of places that sell the (supposedly) original ones (A-Grade?) along with another listing for the fake ones which they call 'wholesale' or R-Grade (not sure what the R is for).
I want to know if there are any trusted sources to get an original battery. Tried calling the dealers in my country and they said that they don't issue phone 'parts' unless it's given for repairs.
so yeah,. where do you guys get your batteries from?

If you want to guarantee your battery is OEM than you need to buy it from either your local carrier store, Samsung, or a big box retailer like Best Buy. However, if you do not mind the extra bulk I cannot make a higher recommendation for a Zerolemon Battery/Case. I would link it, but I am a newer user and cannot post links. It is easy to find on Amazon and the price is great at $41.99.

I buy direct from Amazon. In my case amazon.ca.

I work at a busy cell/computer repair shop so we wind up ordering 10+ batteries out per device at a time since you never know when a dozen iphones may come in. We pull our parts from Mengtor and Global Direct Parts.
As far as personal opinion goes, Mengtor parts are generally junk for new(ish) phones. Until it's been out for a year, at least, we pass on any mengtor orders even if we save a decent amount simply because returns are highly frowned upon by us and customers (obviously, who wants to bring their phone back again?). However, After a year, or even two of parts being revised and worked on we migrate over from GDP to Mengtor since the warranty process for faulty parts we order goes through faster and they've worked out the kinks in their junk by then.
Global Direct Parts on the other hand, have never let me down. Sure we've ordered junk parts that are dead on arrival but for the most part they are our main supplier for all, excluding iphone 4/4s and prior iphones (due to well, being over a year old and the previous issues are taken care of).
The cost on GDP right now for you would be 22.89 for a battery on an S4 for Verizon (Here to link)
Our cost is about 15-18$ depending on if they are pushing stock for new orders to their warehouse or willing to hold onto it. Warranty process has always been excellent as well for when we get a bunk battery, or other part. Also, they generally offer OEM and aftermarket parts depending on which you want. The link goes to an OEM variant. Hope this helps!

OEM from Amazon I believe is good.
can't go wrong with OEM

Either amazon or preferably the Samsung store.

I bought ones of these, $8.75 & free 2 day shipping with Amazon Prime.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LX02I92/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I've always had good experiences with Anker. They're also available on Amazon, and unlike several of the knockoffs, they guarantee NFC compatibility if they list it.

If u can find a way of shipping items from china's tmall to ur place, they do hv authentic batteries from samsung's factories in china, with the retail packaging and all. It is a cheap option if u can find a way to save on shipping.
If not, I would just get anker batteries as they are reliable.

U could find any online seller that has the real deal for a cheaper price if u know how to spot fakes. Otherwise, if u really have to get the samsung one, u gotta pay more to buy it off the official retail stores.

As much as I hate paying Samsung for their horribly overpriced accessories, batteries included, I did end up buying my spare battery from Samsung, but I waited until they had a 50% off accessories sale. I wasn't in a rush, so I just waited until a sale came up. Call it a compromise.

I buy an original samsung battery from aliexpress.com
