Extended battery cover with induction?

Does anybody know if there's a company making an extended battery cover with Qi wireless induction capability? If so, how about a case that fits it?

There's only a regular inductive one, but there is a Mugen extended battery that fits in the normal form factor.

From what I've heard, it isn't worth the price for a mere 200mAh gain. It would be awesome if somebody made a cover and gel-case that supported Qi and the 3600mAh extended battery!

Indeed, but it would take FOREVER to charge.

If it can charge in 8 hours(while I'm sleeping) then it's all good. Just imagine a 3600mah battery, calibrated, nice lean kernel, undervolted, 4g disabled, and Juice Defender Ultimate(when they fix it). I could go a week without charging.

Isn't that less than the stock battery? How can that be an extended battery? That is why it charges faster too, since there is less to charge.

No, stock is 1600. Couldn't you just open the back of your phone instead of making me do it? also, who's the manufacturer of your 1800?

Ha, I was too lazy to take off my case to look st the battery. For some reason I thought the stock battery was around 2000. Either way, I wouldn't pay more for a battery that was only 200mAh more.

I had a Seidio 3500Mah for my HTC Incredible and I could NEVER find a case for it. That thing sold in some pretty large numbers. Let me say the battery was awesome. I wish the vendor would make one for the Charge

I have the same. I feel its slightly better than stock. After all it has only slightly more capacity. I would love to see them make a 2000mah that wouldn't need the extra door.

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.

You're talking about the replacement back cover, right?
But as far as I understand, there is no protective outer case (extra protection against dropping etc) suitable for use with the extended battery, right?

Just pick up 3500 mAh... I love the extra time but I already miss my bodyglove case. Tried to modify a cheap rubber case, didn't want to ruin the bodyglove, but that didn't work out too well. Any cases out there for the bigger back?

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.
Sent from my SGH-i997 using xda premium

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.

Ontrion LifeCHARGE Battery Case

http://www.androidguys.com/2013/10/08/ontrion-lifecharge-battery-case-samsung-galaxy-s4-review/
I just saw this last night. Has anyone tried this case out yet? It looks intriguing. After adding the case, you're looking at about 4800 while keeping the slim design of the phone. Definitely an interesting concept.

Pelvic bump.
Surprised there's not more interest in this.

thats why you just turn off charging on the battery case. duh. But having a battery you can swap out anytime sorta kills this idea. So................... but for some reason i like the idea. weird.

This. You wouldn't switch on the charging when it's close to 95%. I turn it on when it's at 5% or less.
My Charging Case.
I don't have the exact same model but I do have a charging case and I love it. My battery would deplete quickly since I play music while working and emulators when I'm not. It can easily go 2 full days and a bit without touching a wall charger and almost 4 days if I don't play games or music. Your mileage may vary depending on what ROM you have running.

That's why you don't leave the charging on...the idea of a charging case is to be able to have a backup when your phone is low on battery. Obviously for a phone like the S4, it's not as sensible because you can just buy an extra battery and swap it. But it's still a cool concept.

Hey mate, is it safe to put a much bigger battery than the stock ??
Will it be an issue during charge ??

CBS, using a bigger battery than stock is fine. I've used 7-8 and4oid phones with extended batteries and have never had an issue. they will however take longer to charge due to the increased size.
I used to use a zerolemon 7500 mah battery in my galaxy s3. It was great. Took twice the time to charge but well worth it. Only plug it in to charge at night.

No problem. Sounds like a 7500 mah battery sounds like it will suit your needs. Internet, gaming, streaming movies and music will take it's toll on even the best batteries. A 7500 mah battery will last me all day with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and gps all day for work. The average user will get 1-3 days depending on use. With the right rom and kernel can do wonders.

Glad I could help. I haven't used the NFC on my s3 or my s4. I tried playing with it but it's not a need. You guys will be happy to know if you buy a wireless charging receiver it will fit under the stock battery cover as well with the zl 3000 mah battery. I love wireless charging. No more laying in bed and reaching around on the floor in the dark trying to find the cord for my phone.

I own both of these.
note+4+battery+hyperion in amazon search since I don't post here that often I just read and lurk.
And
1&keywords=note+4+caseology
Both have done extremely well however I favor the hyperion batteries better and closer to the oem. Battery life matches both well and very close to the normal life and usage patterns I would get with the Samsung battery. It's wonderful knowing that if I'm gone for more than 12 hours I just drop in another battery and keep right on working.
Hopefully this helps.
