Bought my new battery from my local Sprint store last Friday. It came with the new back. Does anyone know where to find cases for these? It is the same back that johnnychimpo has in his post.

Does it charge to 100%? also does it definitely give you longer life?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
As far as charging, I can't be positive, but it does show 100% on the battery app I downloaded. As far as better life, heck yeah!!! I tried my hardest to kill it today.what would have killed my stock battery, this one went 6 hours longer.

I dont use a case for mine. I have a body glove flip leather case for it with invisishield. Could you post some pics of the battery. Wondering if that sprint store is selling chinese batteries or if this one is oem or name branded. Thanks
You can buy a 2700 directly from Sprint now? Do you have a pic of it ?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I can get a pic tomorrow. I'm unsure why my Sprint store sells them, because I called 3 others near me, and my store is the only one that has them.

Did sprint give you instructions on how to charge it being that the phone can't properly charge it on its own? I find it interesting that sprint is selling extended batteries now because if they/HTC don't come up with a fix for the charging problem they are going to be getting a lot of calls!
Unfortunately, no. I'm probably gonna take it back tomorrow. I can't find a case??

You can see from the pictures that the label on that battery is stuck on, seems too good to be true when you get about 50% more capacity without any added width, it is more likely to be a fake

Theres another one up that is 2900mah US based seller. Guy has 300,000+ positive feedback.
i saw this too on ebay. i'm considering it
seller feedback means nothing.. normal people won't test the batt properly and will just base it on their gut feel to see if it's better or worse than the original and if you complain that it's crap, the seller can just tell u you use it for 1 mth or something to "condition" it and he can get rid of 80% of all the people who complained
valid point but I think at some level it goes to the quality of the seller.

3200mah, thicker than the regular one?
no way you'll be able to get that kind of capacity without making the battery bigger.. almost all aftermarket battery claiming above 2200mah are selling snake oil, but i'd like to hear back with the results you get.
That's what I was thinking but it's definitely same size it doesn't have nfc and seller recon it has roughly 30% more battery power but I will share results if its shift well I lost $20 but I will try argue with seller and say it's not working right

Usually it came with custom back cover. Standar battery is 2200 mah (or 2400 mah, i'm forgot), so 3200 mah will definetly bigger than original battery.

Unless they use some kind of new technology lol.
The cover and the battery sit pretty much flush now.
Yeah and they're never going to be putting new technology into a now "old" phone. I can almost guarantee that it will be larger but i doubt it will look anything close to the size of the Hyperion 4200.
Hooooly crap, this would be awesome!

Yeh, way too big, I bought a cheap asian 4300mah battery for $9 and it was just to chunky, now I'm back to stock battery.
3000 mAh sounds great, pushes us into razr maxx territory. Hope it's not as thick as the 4000 mAh batteries

Hey does anyone know a good slim extended battery for the s4 that wont make it bulky? And also how do u tell if your battery isnt good anymore thanks
Also interested in this. You can usually see the phones battery percent via the settings in the phone. I get about to about 50% after a 8 hour work day, only using my phone on breaks via wifi. But to test it, no idea.

Check to see if the battery has any bulge/swelling on it. If it's not charging correctly like long charge time, check the charger too.
