As the title says i'm looking for the biggest battery that will fit the stock door. I know most options don't include NFC and by the looks of it who knows when we will actually be able to use it. For now i've heard that the extended nexus battery may work but no relies yet. Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks

The nexus extended will work. It may bulge a bit, though. I trimmed a tiny bit of the plastic off and it fits fine. Some work with no modification.

I just got the Nexus battery about three weeks ago. The cover is tight going on and needs to be maneuvered on properly, but for me, there is no bulge. It works great and you can tell it is a higher capacity battery just from the additional length of time it takes to recharge over the stock battery.
I am attached to a charger most of the day, but will be giving it a good, hard work out when on vacation next month.
Looks like i'm going to buying this then, thanks guys. For those of you that have bought it, what were the time differences between battery length? I'm currently on SKYICS rom and with heavy use and lot of things frozen i get to 10pm with about 10%. I'm hoping i'll have 25% with this new battery.
Also being that this is an NFC battery, would that functionality still work when its finally launched??

I have an OtterBox, currently replaced tho with a Case Mate. I also have the extended battery. I haven't even used the extended battery, however I will be this weekend. Anyways, to answer your question, I briefly popped the battery in right after I bought it. As others said, there may be a slight bulge, however i'm fairly certain a case would work just fine with it.

Is the increase in battery life enough to justify the cost of the battery?

Do you really think this company has found a way to fit more mah in a battery than Samsung who earns billions of dollars in profit. I got the andida battery and don't notice much of a difference. I think any difference you may see is just the placebo affect.

Yeah, it doesn't get any better even if those junk ass generic batteries say they have more mah. They really don't, and they don't last as long as OEM.
OEM is better, don't waste your time and money on ****ty generic batteries.

As far as battery size goes, it looks like a perfect fit for the original back. There won't be a bump or need for over-sized back cover.
As far as the mah's of the battery are concerned, I would say there is little to no way that thing is a 2430mah battery. If memory serves me correct, our stock battery is 1550mah. You're not squeezing almost 1000mah of power into that package without making it bigger. I have the Anker 2800mah battery and it comes with the over-sized back cover. It's a great battery, but in my opinion there is no way you're fitting 2430mah into a small form-factor.

Hi folks!
I have ordered and tried that replacement battery (look in google, from sunsky. can not yet post urls).
Though I had read somewhere that its actual capacity may vary from 2000 up to 2500mAh, I wanted give it a try because it is not so expensive, with a hope that it helps a bit.
Anyone else have tried it already?
Unfortunately I can tell, that I feel no difference to our standard 1800mAh. But I may be wrong.
For that reason I would like use a battery life testing tool and as a reference point, what tool would you suggest me to use to check the battery life from both?
Thanks
I've tried that battery (http://www.sunsky-online.com/view/3...r+Samsung+T699+++Galaxy+S+Relay+4G+++i415.htm)
Unfortunately I found it was sh!ter then the stock battery we have.
Also that sunsky battery lacks NFC. It's cheap for a reason, bad quality in my experience.
Check Nards tweak to the stock 2100mah Samsung S3 battery.
I've performed that trick to 4 of those batteries, and can safely say they perform wonders.

There is a Gold S3 battery available....
Remember the one that went over so well for the 4G Slide?
hehe, considering getting one of those. Only problem is, if I get it and mod it I can't return it if it doesn't come out right
Hello dillalade
yes it is that one from your link which I tried also. I had been indeed influenced by the thread from Nards tweak when gtmaster303 mentioned that battery.
Thats why I wanted give a try to this one first before going further to the tweak.
Also I wanted post this to Accessories first, but because this seems like a question so I came here, and after collecting details I could report there my results as well. (The video on the registration makes you a bit down and stressed, so trying to be careful.)
Can anyone suggest me an app to test the capacity in order to compare them?
@gtmaster303
good idea again to try with Gold S3 battery hehe

I've been looking into the gold battery and you can't always assume they're all the same. Get it from the same seller that's been verified to supply good batteries.
Either way it's still a win for us as the battery has a much higher capacity already. We should see a great improvement in battery no matter which S3 battery we buy

I suspect 'unable to return' won't be your only problem.......
From past readings, I read the Gold S3 battery was slightly thicker than the stock S3 battery.
If my interpretation is correct, then that gold battery (being thicker than stock) would be very hard to accommodate in our Relay battery slot.
I say this from my experience in already utilising the stock S3 battery in our Relay. In that the stock S3 battery is 'already' thicker than our stock Relay battery, such that the stock S3 battery is already a very tight fit (thickness wise.) So much so that closing the back housing door on our Relay is already as snug as I'd like.
Hence ifffff that Gold S3 battery is indeed thicker then the stock S3 battery, than you may have a hard time trying to close the battery cover on our phone with the Gold battery.
In addition to the tighhhht squeeze issue.... similarly to the previously discussed Sunsky battery above - neither can cater for NFC.
All that I can say from weeks of experience with the stock S3 batteries is that I'm able to achieve ~20-30 hours uptime with roughly 2-3hours talk time and 3-4hours screen on time.
I cannot complain thus far. I'd say, It's worth the extra pennies for that OEM Samsung S3 battery with NFC for that extra juice.

Yes, that's another thing I failed to mention. I too noticed that Sunsky battery failed to charge to 100%.
I guess we can safely conclude these batteries are cheap as nutts for a reason - they are poor quality. Ridiculous how they get away with stating these bogus MaH capacities.
Go for S3 battery, you will be pleasantly surprised.
I have 4 of them, all of which are rock solid (Samsung OEM products.)

Unfortunately it is too thick, 5mm while ours are 4mm.
I can not close the back cover with it, so I can not use it. .. disappointed and sad
Is the original s3 battery then 4.5mm when Nard says "a bit thicker"?
I find that a little hard to believe... how can 1mm make that big of a difference? (pun intended)
is the back cover really that flush that there's no extra room? Not even a slight amount?

Very interesting.... I heard they were slightly different in size. (width I think) Are you saying this is not the case?
Yes thats what im saying. Unless the sprint note 4 has a different battery than the other variants. It fit perfectly in my phone.
Will that Mugen battery work with the Samsung flip case? I ask because they include a battery cover with it, which looks deeper than stock.
Note 4 (N910C) Battery is a bit longer than Edge (N915F) Battery. No, It doesn't fit inside the Edge either.

Oxygen has issue with the backlight in the lcd replacements, but its fine now that i run lineage. On oxygen it the backlight level freezes and stays where you left it until reboot, it doesnt change if you move the slider. Other than that the screen is acceptable. The colors and the brightness will be different from an amoled of course, but the screen i received was very good for an ips lcd. No performance hit that i notice.
If you buy the more expensive amoled replacements, you shouldn't notice any difference.
I was planning to do the same since my battery life has decreased noticeably, I'm about 2600mah. However since OnePlus does not sell OEM batteries all the batteries sold on ebay end aliexpress are of unknown sources and could be pretty unreliable but it's cheap and you lose waterproofness or whatever the OP6 has. It costs €10 or less if you do yourself.
If you instead go with OP official support directly it costs €35 shipping included.
What do you suggest? I'm tempted to pay less going DIY but scared I won't get any improvement.
