I'm in Canada so eBay was my only option...
I've even requested Mugen and this is the response I got:
Thank you for your email!
I think this model will release on next year,
I am no sure the mAh for this model yet, still on planing at the moment.
Please contact me if you need any additional info.

Checking the power usage, most if it is being used by you guess it...
The display. For me this number flirts around 50%. That's a boat load of usage compared to everything else!
I guess Motorola didn't choose an energy efficient panel.

I was rather amazed to hear that the screen sucks so much battery! Thought a 3.1 low-res screen would rather give a better battery life.
May be a custom ROM with some tweaks can take care of this.
I'm going to leave brightness on about 40% for the day and see what happens. I normally have on auto brightness, and my usage does show the display using about 50% of the juice.
Yeah with respect to the display I don't think an HTC phone would be that high... Odd choice moto!

Eh, sometimes the Hero got up in the 30-40% display usage
how much thickness does the extended battery add? it's hard to tell from the picture, but it still looks like the there is the raised portion at the top of the device for the camera
Not much... I hardly even notice its there. The new battery backing even keeps a slight curve as the original slimmer one did.
I'm really happy this is an original Motorola product and the battery cover / door looks just like the thin one with the silver swirls and all.

cool. might have to pick one up from my local store.
Hi to everyone,
is there any lucky owner of Motorola Extended battery who can tell me how thick is phone with extended door? I ask one seller and he tell me Droid Pro with this original extended battery is about 1/2" thicker than with standard 1420 mah battery. But after I have read this thread I think it must be nosense. But there is no exact infor and no photo anywhere. Thanks a lot!
I'm really surprised to read about everyone having battery problems. I wouldn't describe myself a heavy user, but I do make several calls, send and receive a boatload of texts, have widgets that require data pulls set for every 30 minutes, do a small amount of internet browsing, and use the mp3 player for an of hour or so while working out and I have had nothing but amazing battery life. Being a BB convert a couple of devices ago, I can say with certainty that this, being my 3rd Android phone, has the best battery life so far. I usually unplug around 6am and by 11pm, I'm still at about 60-70%. No android device that I know of can touch the battery life of a BB, but this one has been very good so far.
It adds more weight than thickness imo. The battery is probably 1/8" thicker and the soor the same. Probably adds 1/4" more thickness overall, but there is a great weight different to me. Seem to hold a good charge though. Worth the $34 to me.
im really interested in this
please post a picture, only with extended door and battery one from the side
I'm waiting for:

Has anyone tried to fit the otterbox in w extended battery? May try to hack up the case so it will fit when i get it
I was able to cut out the back on the standard cover for the extended battery to stick out, and the otterbox seems to fit fine. If you don't want to cut your back cover, you can just leave the back off since the otterbox protects it, though I still like the idea of having an internal cover. I may go back and put some sort of rubber seal around the battery opening just in case. Will post pics later
would the BH5X battery for the Droid X work with the Atrix 4G? The BH6X, what comes with the Atrix, is the same as the extended battery for the Droid X, but the Droid X required a different battery case for it.
The BH5x has a lower capacity but it is far cheaper. I'm just worried it wouldn't be compatible with the Atrix, considering that the extended battery that came with the atrix required a whole new battery door for the Droid X, so the BH5X may be smaller than would snugly fit in the Atrix.

Technically, the battery will work because it has the same connection in the same location but it is smaller so any vibration or if you happen to drop it it will knock the battery loose.
Thanks, just wanted to know. It's so cheap, so I thought that it might be worth getting. Oh well, I'll dish out the 25 dollars or so for the BH6X.
EDIT: You could add a bit of cardboard or something to the BH5X and then it wouldn't come loose.

I would probably go with some sort of material that is NOT flammable. But it might work. But I can't see the point in it, the dual cores will eat through that battery pretty quick unless you just want to use it as a back up
I had a spare bh5x from when I had a Droid x and it works perfectly fine in the phone. It is smaller than the stock battery, but it still fits snug with no wiggle at all. Contacts still line up perfect. Obviously doesn't last as long as stock (1500mah/1930mah) but it definitely comes in handy as a spare/backup. And you can pick them up for $5 on Amazon
Yea, probably not cardboard, haha, but since bH5X fits snugly, I'll probably pick one up as a backup.
I had to recharge a droid x's battery on my Atrix and it worked without any flaws. The droid x's battery is a bit small though and could be moved easily inside.

Weird, mine has no play at all, fits perfectly snug.
Just wondering if anyone heard any word on if we'll be able to use all our accessories from the X with the X2? I am particularly interested in know if the case's, extended battery, and cardock will work. They appear to be very close in physical size.
The DX2 has almost exactly the same form factor as the DX. That means all cases and car docks will fit and just try the battery and see what happens, worst thing that could happen is it not boot
hey just wanted to let you know that i have a DX2 and yes everything from the DX fits the same.

Is the battery door exactly the same? I curious because if I get the DX2 I wanna get the powermat door.
All of the accessories will work, including the extended battery. Actually, the stock battery door is "ever so slightly" more outward than the original X door. With a "very" minor tweak to the door legs using some needle-nose pliers, I'm able to use my extended battery from my original X without having to use the extended battery door, and there isn't the pressure on the phone that the original X had when doing that (that caused the screen distortion problems). The door stays locked firm, but doesn't require any real force to open or close it that would cause worry about the battery being squeezed in too much. So now I have a stock looking X2 with the extended battery.
All the accessories work, but the battery covers do not match in color. I just purchased the extended battery, and the door on the X2 is black (like the rest of the phone) But the extended battery door is more grey. Im assuming the original X was this color. Hope they make a new door that matches the X2 Black Color

No need for it. Just *ever so slightly* bend the door arms outward.. we're talking like 1/4 of a millimeter, they *barely* need an adjustment. Then you can use the stock door with the extended battery. The stock door on the DX2 is slightly more outward than the stock DX1 door, so with the extra little help there isn't any pressure problems on the battery.

Good to know. For 30 seconds of my time, I'm running the stock cover with the exact same battery that they're selling now, without the extra hump, and for no extra money. Been a week now, still no screen problems. That little bit of extra room in the X2 stock cover, plus the little bit of leg coaxing, has given me a stock DX2 with the extra bit of juice. One of the few things I've liked about the DX2.
Not sure if this deal is still available but BGR reported a couple of days ago that for the DX2's launch week, the Droid X/X2 Essentials Pack (multimedia dock, car dock, car charger, longer wall charger, and HDMI cable) was available for $19.97 online. Purchased separately, those accesories would run you $145, so it's a pretty good deal for current DX owners. I ordered one and it's getting delivered today. Just an FYI for DX owners looking to save a buck or 125. :-D
I also ordered this and received it last week, fantastic deal, I already had a cardock so now I have one for each of my vehicles.
Question for those with a white 2000mah official extended battery
I received mine today from Amazon. and the top part of the new backing didn't clip into the phone. I've sent it back for a replacement. My question is, has anyone experienced this before or was I just unlucky and got a faulty cover? I have the I9100p (the NFC) model and was wondering if there is a compatibility issue?
Many thanks!
Hi,
Had exactly the same issue - I also have the 9100P and the back cover is slightly changed from the 9100 , the tabs on it are deeper and the extended back will not fit correctly.
I have yet to find an extended battery designed for the 9100P , ebay , amazon etc all sell the standard one. . .
I have also found that the phone does not fit well in all cases - again the back appears to be very slightly deeper??
Sorry cant be more helpful. .
All the best

thanks for the reply matey
looks like ill have to cancel the order for the extended battery
extended battery that makes the back of the phone flat without that curve?,i hear some have their clips at different positions, i dont know why samsung did this, i havent brought one due to this.
I bought the Andina battery 2000 maH and it works just as well as well as the Samsung and same size as original
I know there are a few people having problems with the fit of the new back cover for the extended battery but here's how i solved my problem.
I don't know about anyone else but my original battery cover actually fits although it is tight and there is a ridge in the back of the cover because of the thickness of the bigger battery. I got round this by using a nail file to file down the thicker plastic end caps at the top and bottom so they are flush with the thickness of the actual battery body i also rounded off the sharp edges. it doesn't give you much maybe just 1mm but it's enough to get a decent fit.
i hope i've explained that ok
pics? what to file?

Hold the battery side on you can see the top and the bottom plastic ends are just a little thicker than the battery body, they are the places to file but don't go mad. You'll only get about a millimeter but it's all you need. I've done it on my black i9100 and my daughters white one although the black battery cover is a little more flexible and easier to get on.
I have a similar problem with the black extended battery back cover I bought for my Orange I9100P. I got it from Amazon UK and I got a Korean NFC battery but the back cover from the UK battery just doesn’t snap in properly.
The bottom left just won’t snap in for some reason. The strange thing is that my mother has a SG2 from O2 the I9100 version and it fits perfectly into that phone. Is there a difference between the two models or is it a manufacturing fault with my phone? Should I send it back to Amazon for a replacement or should I be sending the phone back?
I have two pictures with the back cover on my phone, one with me pressing it down and the other with it loose but I'm not allowed to link to URLs yet. So if you want to see them go to imgur with this after the .com a/kaflG
this is the same as me it wont snap on right, i have even shaved the bits on the back off and still wont fit in right or the bottom left to.
i tried bending it a bit as well with still same of not fitting in right
I have i9100 and my girlfriend the i9100p.
I use the official extended battery and it stays on but not perfect. It does not fully snap on at the top.
It will not stay on at all on i9100p so I don't think there is a fault at all here it just seems that the p is slightly different for some reason and the back covers provided with the larger battery are just not that well made.

Fits just perfect

I may be wrong but I heard that the battery of the i9100p hosts the antenna of the NFC. Hence the different size with the i9100.
So, appart from your problem, changing the battery will mean that your NFC won't work anymore.
Hi everybody,
Sorry if i am in the wrong place. I have a Tinji Mobile GT-I9300 SIII clone. Its stock battery performance is too much poor. Watching about 1 hour and 30 minutes video while all the sensors are off ( except cell raido ). I want to buy a battery better in performance. The stock battery is labeled with the same model code as SIII original battery which is EB-L1G6LLU 2100 mAh. But it has 3 connection pins different from the original SII battery which has 4 connection pins. My battery dimensions are Length:63.20mm, Width:50.08mm, Height:4.41 mm.
Anyone can check these values with the original SIII battery ? If it matches, i am intending to buy one or two.
Thanks,
Firat

Hi,
thank you very much for your response.It helped me very much. Dimensions are the same as my current battery and also cutouts on the corners are same, either. Absolutely identical. Interestingly, the phone dimensions ( except the tickness, a litle bit ticker than original ) are the same, even though mine has a 4.6" display that is slightly smaller than the original one which is 4.8".
I ordered the extended batteries. will see if it really fits.
thank you very much again.
Hi! have you got the batteries? are them ok with your phone? I am in the same situation than you, so I'd like to know if the batteries fits with a tinji S3 clone!!
Thank you!

Hi,
Yes, i have received them. Dimension are OK. There is a plastic part on the pins side of the battery i received that helps the battery be securely held in its place. But that does not match of my phone's battery holder. In fact, with some sharp material that part may be cut to make it fit in the battery holder. I did not try it, because the back cover received with the battery does not lock my phone.
I sold them to someone else that has an original S III and he got pleased with both battery and back cover and the performance of the battery itself.
I hope this helps....
