Not even a Galaxy S i9000 battery? They are the same (except for the mAh rating). Look on ebay/flipkart or any online sites too.

Same. More mah doesnt mean better lifetime expectancies, quality of battery and ability to hold charge are HUGE factors
The battery just arrived I am a bit skeptical as to if it will fry my phone in the past friends have bought Chinese batteries and did the same. Any one have any input ? Maybe I should hook it up to a multimeter..

I take it you use ghost armor or use it naked? Yeah, it does bulge but I use a case so I don't see it. I never actually needed longer battery life anyways, though. I grabbed it cuz it was $25 and now I have a spare. With oem battery mine lasts well over 24 hours with 5 hours of screen on time, auto brightness, emails, weather and everything else syncing. I would never run a cheapo battery though.
greekunit690 does the one you ordered require a different battery cover? Or is it just the same size? Samsung really should make an extended battery. Actually all cell phone companies need to make the batteries bigger like the driod razr maxx

I've been using this battery since Feb 17th. The stock battery would only get me through the work day and even then sometimes barely. Now I easily can go through the evening with about 30% left before I plug it in for the night. Once I forgot and it was at 1% the next morning which the stock never would've lasted that long.
I wasn't aware we could use the Nexus extended battery. Since I use a case I may switch to that. If I can find one at a good price on Prime.
How the heck do you get 5 hours of screen time and have it last 24 hours? Even with the nexus battery juice defender running I can get maybe 3-4 hours.

Juice defender is sucking down your battery. I run Gideons script as well as some other mods. Easily go over 24 hours, usually 2 days. With the extended battery I have gone over 8 hours screen on.

Been waiting forever for this to get in stock. I ordered a spare OEM charger too. Unforunately they were out of the 2.0 MHL adapters but I'm sure some ebay ones will work just fine.
Appreciate the heads up!
now you let the dogs at it.
lol actually if you followed the 50% off thread it was back in stock over 1 week ago, in fact mine came this past tuesday!
Yeah I started that thread ha. I ordered it but it never went through. It went OOS add soon as I ordered it so it never went through.

look at the 50% off thread. register your s4 and receive a 50% off coupon via email good for 5 products but those have to be under 49.99, free ground shipping if you spend 49.99 or more otherwise it's $3.95 via post office.
Got mine a few days ago, does anyone know if it's best to leave the spare battery in the charger until it's time to swap out or to remove it once it's charged?

Tried both ways over the last few days, seems like letting it stay in the charger actually is more effective.. Will keep trying both ways to be sure however

With my old HTC Incredible I used to leave them in till I swapped out, but those were aftermarket batteries and charger.. I guess I'll heed your advice however, don't want to destroy a 30 dollar battery

It'd be the same as keeping your car on 24/7 or a lightbulb. Plus it sucks electricity. Think green

i just tried to order it and its on back order . Anyone else placed a back order before on the samsung site? Is the new stock coming in pretty quick?
Don't bother with their notification system. It won't notify you when it is back in stock. Looks like it's about every two weeks or so when stock comes in and sells out within a day.

Wish they were on stock. I really need a spare battery. Actually having to charge my phone is annoying.

Hey everyone!
Just bought another blaze to root and mess with. The battery was fried and got wet at some point....Randomly I searched my battery stash...Any GSM Samsung Galaxy Nexus battery works with the Blaze!!!! I am using a 1950m Anker Battery with stock KitKat and getting INSANE battery life... Try it out...This could be known already so please don't bombard with duhhhhhs

Well I can will take a screenshot after I charge it and then let it almost die. The whole point I am trying to make is that there are a TON of bigger batteries for the galaxy nexus line of phones and they work fine in this phone. So it is a good option for someone who is needing more battery life.
Also I am running Slimkat 4.4.2

Yes I am aware of that. All I am saying is that 1950 and higher ml after market batteries are much more readily available for the galaxy nexus than the blaze 4G. This phone does not have a lot of accessories or battery options. It was barely marketed and I am just trying to help.
thanks,

I agree with your point
Some ebay listings on aftermarket batteries will have multiple device codenames ( ex. T769).
We are lucky we don't use an exhilarate, those things are below marketed. Rare to find in public at that.
Good luck with your results.

Battery setup on new Nexus 5

Hello, i don't know how batteries work but i know that on old phones i used i had to charge it for like a day before using it so it "formats"(i think).
I'll be getting my nexus 5 two days from now and i want to know what i have to do after i take it off the box?
Thank you.

I used it straight away out the box and charged it when it got low. And still works perfectly well. 5-6hours screen time. So don't worry and enjoy your new experience?
