Hi,
I have been using this battery for a week now and I like it so far.
The problem is my phone now does not fit in the old case I had.
Where can I find cases customized for a nexus one with an extended battery
Thanks,

I stuff mine in the pouch the phone came with.
But, it has fallen sometimes when I take it out.
I do need a case
I have a 2400mah CS battery from Amazon uk.
Found a case, and a belt holster that goes with it.
Will add more details later
any links?
Yah! Any pics or a link?

Here's a link to a battery on Amazon... Dont know what case would fit with the extra size of the case with the new battery door.
http://www.amazon.com/2400mAh-Li-io...BSUU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1301052691&sr=8-3
Can you post pictures of the phone with the battery and new door in it? That 3600mAh battery is atrocious looking, and I wonder how much better this would be.
Looks to be the same size, just less mah.
I just bought this couple weeks ago and today I went back to my stock battery. The bat life is good but the replacement case is so easy to break or should I say the pins that locks the case to the phone are too fragile.

The reason people don't like it is because it sucks for an "extended" battery. You can get another one almost 1000mAh bigger for the same physical size.
Which one would u recommend

I haven't tried any but from others' recommendations I would say hyperion 3500mah with the OEM extended cover (as the hyperion one cracks)

Samsung extended is like 2600 so hyperion is like 1000 bigger. Just search this forum for it.

Has anyone had any luck finding decent cases (even TPU) for the OEM extended cover? Amazon's got some kinda-crappy silicon cases for the Trexcell extended battery, but I'm not really a fan.
I have both the OEM extended battery and the Hyperion's. The Hyperion is 3500mAh and the OEM is 2600mAh, however the Hyperion is slightly thinner by a hair, and it runs cooler and has a much longer battery life. You won't have any problem fitting the Hyperion under the OEM extended battery case which is made of a better quality plastic than the Hyperion's that comes with the battery.

Hyperion Experience
I just ordered the Hyperion through Amazon and the case for it as well. I'm amazed! Took this phone from one that I can barely make it through 12 hours with minimal use and having GPS, data and wifi off except when I MUST have it (i.e. at lunch) to a totally new level where I have all services running throughout the day and extensive use without a charge for 12+ hours. Should have expected it - the battery has the same capacity as the Razr MAXX.
In reference to the case... Meh... I had the silicone one that I bought through Verizon on day one of owning this phone and it was a nice one. Felt good in the hand, lasted nearly 2 years (still works but not on the extended cover) and protected the phone from my occasional oafish drop. The one I have from Hyperion feels cheap (I guess because it is...), but does its job - I've dropped it a couple of times and had no issues. Only real issues I do have is 1) this case covers the hardware buttons on the bottom. With EP1, EP4 and FP1, this wasn't an issue as the backlighting worked randomly at best. With the FP5 update, I've found that the backlighting appears to function properly and the new cover precludes that. 2) the charging port's cutout was too small for the charger. Initially, I just pulled the cover down and charged it that way but who wants that? UGLY! So... That's what a razor blade is made for... I cut the hole bigger (carefully!) and have had no issue since.
I believe that will be my solution for the covering the hardware buttons backlighting as well...
So the other day I noticed that Hyperion has a 7500 mAh battery for the S4. Has anyone tried it? I currently have a ZeroLemon 7500 battery and was wondering how does it compare to ZeroLemon's battery?

I'm curious myself. I've seen in the reviews for the Hyperion version that the back plate causes some issues with the flash.
I don't know, but I was looking at the comments on amazon for the hyperion battery and someone noted there was a haze in pictures/video whenever the flash was used, due(argued) to the design of the back casing.

On the other hand though, the zerolemon battery tends to modestly degrade the cell signal strength according to their reviews:
http://www.amazon.com/review/R2P0EL...e=UTF8&ASIN=B00CXZI3DQ&linkCode=&nodeID=&tag=
So pick your poison, flaws with flash, or flaws with signal strength. It looks like it depends on signal in your area and what you use your phone for.

I know if you contract ZeroLemon that you can buy just a case from them I'm curious if I could pick up a Hyperion case and if the for each battery works on both the Hyperion and ZeroLemon case

how do yall with the 7500 mah batteries like the extra bulk it adds?
Its not that bad. It doesn't feel like the phone is made by playschool with the extra weight. The zerolemon blocks my signal sometimes to the point I want to break my phone. Thinking about returning it. I don't need it, just bought it since it was only $40.

I have the 5200 hyperion. I use my phone heavily all day long. Im currently sitting at work on my phone. My job consists of an hour of work so i spend the other 7 hours on my phone. I make it through the entire day without using power saving mode or any other conservative setting except for auto brightness. Im so glad I bought it and the added bulkiness isnt bad at all imo. Even if u are a very heavy user I doubt u will need the 7500.

I will say 7500 Is overkill but it no thicker than a 5200 mAh battery so the extra is nice to have.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
I notice in videos that the 7500 covers the rear speaker, does this have a serious effect on speaker volume/quality? I know the ZL case has openings at the bottom to try to compensate.
Have owned both, would recommend Hyperion
I have owned both the zerolemon and (currently) the hyperion battery. The hyperion battery is the same size as the standard extended battery size of 5200mah that Zcell makes and this means that the phone will fit inside a decent phone case (there are many different cases made to fit those specific extended battery dimensions . The zerolemon battery is MUCH larger (nearly twice the size) and requires an awkward back cover/case combo that is not sturdy at all and on top of that, because of its size, it will not fit in any phone cases I know of other than a leather pouch type that aren't fitted to hug the phone. That is the biggest drawback for me. I broke the screen on my phone and had to get another one - the only phone I have broken in the 9 years since I got my first one. The cell radio interference is bothersome only occasionally with the zerolemon battery but it does happen and it is noticeable when it does (think like 75-80% connection speed on average). Also the zerolemon battery seemed to have lost some of its capacity, probably slightly less than a fifth after the first 6 months I had it. I would highly recommend the hyperion battery over the zerolemon. The benefit of being able to have a modestly strong and protective case is important even to me (I rarely drop my phone). The cell radio interference of the zerolemon is bearable and definitely worth the extended battery capacity it delivers. The hyperion battery, however, delivers just as much juice without the radio interference and it does it in a small enough package to fit inside any of the variety of different cases made to fit phones with batteries the dimensions of the hyperion battery/back plate.
Do you know which case like Otterbox with stand and clip for belt or Zerolemon that fit with Hyperion extended 7500mha battery?
In my opinion...neither the ZL or the Hyperion. The Anker 7800mah extended battery has completely blown me away. The battery life on it is amazing (obviously since that's its purpose) and the TPU case that they give you feels really nice. The one thing I am curious to try is if the ZL Rugged case will fit with this battery. But from someone who has owned the ZL battery on my S4....save the money and buy the Anker 7800mah ($31.99 on amazon).
How much " extended " do you guys need ? Currently ive been using Sun Global 3150mAh Extended Battery for Galaxy S4. The size is the same as OEM samsung batt, just a bit heavier. Reputation of the brand? I dont wanna say, depends on you. The battery can last a 12 Hrs marathon with almost 4 Hrs screen-on time, most of which is Gaming and Social apps.
Dont make it impossible by yourself, a smartphone that can last 2 days? Holy crap that is a godlike battery. To me as long as it can stands out a heavy usage during a day then its good enough, more than that, PowerBank will do..I always carry a small size 6600mAh powerbank with me everytime i go out (except work).
The Anker 7800mah is the best. I have the ZL as well. Hands down Anker no question

Damn, wished I'd seen this before I picked up the Trident Electra. Although the Electra may offer more protection the extra bulk is really starting to bother me. I can't fit the Electra in my armband for my workouts like I could when I was just using the Otterbox Commuter or even the Zero Lemon 7500mAh. May have to give the Dyconn a try!
Yeah its nice and slim

Power cases on a phone with a removable battery is pretty silly to me. Plus even though the case has a 3000mah battery, the power deficiency of charging a battery with another battery means an overall drop of about 30%. essentially giving you only 2100mah from the case or 4700mah overall.

It doesn't charge the battery. It is daisy chained to the battery. They provide a battery with 3000mah insert that to the battery slot and then you add the stock battery on top. Its a neat idea.

I was able to stretch the Otterbox silicon to fit the ZeroLemon battery on both my Note II and S4, plus I have the ZeroLemon rugged case. I bet I could stretch the ZeroLemon silicon to fit over the ZL battery daisy chained into this one. Then I'd have 10,500mah on deck.

I would hope it's not daisy-chained cause the voltage would go up too high for the phone (serial arrangement). But I got what you meant. It's arranged in parallel with the stock battery.
Amazon pics worth a thousand words.
