spare batteries anyone?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Seeing a few on eBay now but it's unclear what the capacity is. I'm wary of them anyway as I've had Chinese sellers send me the wrong battery for recent phones (check the listing, the battery described is often different from the one in the title!). Also I've had fake capacity batteries sent out - 800mah or less packed out to full capacity size with foam-rubber!
I'm hoping someone will make an extended capacity battery as it wouldn't need to stick out the back much as the i9100 is recessed anyway. There is an external battery pack available but it's just an additional battery that clips round the phone, not a replacement. Fugly too!
Ditto. Would love to score some batteries by next week since I'm going on a trip and won't always have access to an outlet. Especially since the battery drain is horrible.
Guess we're out of luck in the States since it'll take a while if shipped from UK
Looking at eBay I see a backup battery like this:
1900mAh Back-Up Battery For Samsung Galaxy S2 II i9100
Granted it is not an actual spare battery...for approx USD$10 it may be worth it to get it for some emergency juice for the phone.

Hello there, just wondering if anybody uses that 1800Mah battery from ebay, is it safe, or am I going to mess up my phone.

And if you're lucky, it'll actually be as good as the stock battery. Look around the net for tests. Most 3rd party batteries are sh*t.
Honestly, I wouldn't trust a third party battery that claims to be much better. You're far better off (and less likely to do damage) just finding some battery saving techniques.
I believe that at some point you should be able to get OFFICIAL extended battery cases for the SGS II, however. This would be a safer and more sensible alternative. See here.

Thanks, I was aware that those batteries were sh*t, but just wanted to check if someone had any experience with them.
Anyway, I'll stick with original one.
Thanks once more...

Hi,
I bought one on ebay, and it was s..t
It claim to be a 1800 mA but in fact it was a 1350 mA (written under the sticker)
The seller told me it was a mistake from his supplier...
There are brands like momax which sells for half the mugen. So are mugen extended batteries worth it?

i have looked at Momax site many times, the only battery's they sell for the galaxy s2 are 1450mAh and 1650mAh there not extended battery's considering the battery that comes with the mobile is 1650mAh.
As for Mugen they offer 1700mAh and 3200mAh..
I think Mugen is the way to go, unless Momax can come up with somthing better.
Bought something like this for 9$:
http://www.spider-foot.com/3500mah-backup-extended-batterydoor-cover-for-samsung-gti9100-galaxy-s-2-ii-910eb-p-962.html
got it 2days ago but havent time yet to test it Free sheeping to any country, I had 2 other battier for SGS1 and they were working fine, we will see how is this one.
Bought it mostly for Croatia becasue leaving today for 2weeks and need some more power for beach, shooting movies, listening to music etc Will report back how its working
I'll be getting the 3200mA battery from Mugen once its out, they are sending me one to do a review on, so I will let you know how my experience is. I tend to think with batteries its better to buy them from places with better reputations - how well regarded is Momax?

Just found this on Ebay: http://www.ebay.nl/itm/Original-OEM...ltDomain_3&hash=item3cca7e925e#ht_2718wt_1397
Unfortunately this does not charge your phone. And I have my doubts with this being the real deal. Which dual charger, so phone dock and battery dock in one charging both would you guys recommend? I could not find any similar topic with these sorts of products.
Oh and yes, this is a question.
Ive had the 2 anker 2200 mah batteries and charger for a few weeks and I really like it. The ankers last just as long as the OEM battery

Look for the Kidigi dock. It will charge your phone and a spare battery simultaneously

hmm I've always wanted to get one of these combo packs (battery and charger) - and this seems like a great deal... though being from Hong Kong I'm a little bit skeptical when it comes to original/genuine items.

The thing you need to check is that the NFC function works... An original samsung battery should allow the NFC to work, the OEM batteries don't... If you're looking for a cheap extra battery for just the power you can find them for around $3-$4 Aud on ebay. They work fine but don't have NFC antenna...
And just because it says NFC enabled DOESN'T mean t is...

For now, I would recommend the QCell 2100x2 with Charger since I didnt get to test the Anker and Hyperion yet. Plus the Charger charges the batteries to 100% unlike Hyperion chargers.
Ill post some shots of the Kidigi its awesome no prob from HK. took a bit but thats typical for free ship. Im waiting for an OEM batt w NFC from a domestic seller it was cheap as hell but all his buyers seem happy.

referring to the first post
The link you provided is the real thing, from what I know, there isn't any fakes of this item from hong kong, these item were on a special offer if you buy a new S3 from a authorised store, and many stores sell them of cheaply without the purchase of the S3.

i say keep waiting for the original samsung 3000mah battery to come out, thats what im doing.
Me too but it is really taking forever

Here's some shots of the Kidigi charging the spare batt. I'll post some of it charging the phone later.It also allows you to charge the unit with or without a case. The spare batt was not OEM. Didnt really hold a charge and NFC didnt work. Got my $ refunded and said I should keep it. You really cant get around buying it from Samsung. If theres a 3000mah that is the same size as stock that would be great, I wasnt aware of that.

Does anyone know if there is a slim version of an extended battery? I have the onite 4300mah extended battery and it last all day, but I don't like the fact that it's a lot heavier than the phone with the stock battery. I don't need that much power. Just something to get me an hour or two more out of my phone. Something a little higher than the 2100mah. Any thoughts? Also if this post already exist, please delete this one, I apologize if there is one I was unable to locate it.

Hm. im afraid not... You could always underclock your phone or root... but i seriously am blanking out i honestly think there is no "slim" version of the extended battery.
Well I mean instead of me having a 2100 mah is there somethin little higher capacity or does someone know of a website that sells extended battery doors. I have the onite extended battery and I might just stick with that but the back door broke for the phone and I don't know of anyone who sells a pebble blue extended battery cover.

Was just wondering if you know if that battery will add any thickness to the phone. Also could you provide a link to the website? Thank you.

You can find a bunch on eBay. They even have 3000mah from china. I just bought 2 2800 from USA for like $15 they are the same physical size as stock battery. Just search i747 battery on eBay.
Are they NFC enabled like the stock battery is ?
Remember that on the GS3, NFC is built into the battery itself, not onto the phone.
Of course, if you don't need it...
i recently received my 2300 mAh Onite with NFC from Amazon.
so far, it's providing me with just a few more hours. which is all i needed anyways, and keeping the same battery cover.
i also have a CellularFactory 4500 mAh with NFC that provides me with 2 days of battery that i use when traveling.

No NFC but I personally don't use it much anyways

With the slim battery, how long is your screen time? I think with stock I can hit about 3 hours before I have to charge the phone.

I found these batteries for the GS3 with a 2500mAh capacity. I just wanna know if anyone use/own them? And how are they? Do they actually have a 2500mAh capacity like it's shown?

I have them, they aren't horrible but I'm waiting for my zerolemon 7000mah to ship next week. They last only slightly longer than stock, the nice thing is I carry both and switch them.
