To people with the generic extended battery - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

How is the signal strength when you use the battery cover?

I usually get 2-4 bars, I live right "under" mountains.

Is that better or worse than the stock? I never get over 2 bars unless I'm in Chicago.

OH! Sorry, I didn't read that this was for extended battery covers, I get that coverage with stock.

Been a while since I used my extended battery (HTC), but I seemed to have better signal strength. Maybe not significantly, but it did seem to be improved.

Isn't that percentage based on how much battery the phone has actually used? That makes sense in my head, hope it does here.

Yup. But it sucks the soul out of your phone to do it.

I had it on my old Evo 4g, and I honestly didn't see that much of an improvement in battery life. At least not enough to warrant paying for the app.

Highest capacity battery w/no bulking???

Anyone know of one that's good quality, and doesn't bulk up the phone??

I believe someone on here got the nexus battery to fit. Its 2000 or 2100 mah. I can't remember which.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
So that would be the limit without having the extended bulky back cover?after that, you would need that extra cover??

As of right now it is. I haven't heard of anything else.

I got the extended galaxy nexus battery (2100mah) to fit however the back cover won't stay. Adds about 1mm thickness. I'm using a siedio case and it fits perfectly without the back case.

My Nexus extended battery fits perfectly and all the tabs click and stay. The bulge is also very minimal. For 24.99 at the Verizon Store, its the best deal for an authentic Samsung battery compatible with this phone. Don't know how long this 50% off 49.99 reg price will last.
Other posters had no problems with this extended battery fitting in their phones.

How much of an efficiency increase may we expect to see between 1850mah (or whatever we have stock) and a 2100mah? I can obviously do the math myself but does the efficiency grow exponentially or anything as the mah goes up?

Agreed I just received my battery from nexus today and it fits fine

No, it's linear. mah is a measure of amount of electricity stored, so more electricity is linearly more use time.
Thanks, electrical terms were never a strong point of study for me.

Why would you get that when Verizon is selling it for only 25$
Sent from my SGH-T989
Yeah, it was $26 and some change out the door, post-tax. Why would you buy it on eBay, pay more, THEN wait for shipping? Get it at the Verizon store.
Galaxy Nexus 2100mah battery from Verizon.
End of story on this.
Yes, the back does close and it works perfectly. Just don't drop the phone.
Anyone know how I can get the nexus extended sent to Canada?
I picked up one today at verizon in Vegas it was $27.01 after tax. So far so good, my back cover and case went on easily. Definitely worth it and now I have a spare battery, my original. DEAL!

Im not an expert on this so sry if this is a noob question. But if using the nexus battery, will this in the long run. Damage our phones? Are the voltages going into our phone the same as stock battery? Please if someone with knowlegde on this advise. Thinking of grabbing one? Thx

Signal strength question

On this phone and all the phones I've had I always have around -70 dBm is that normal? Or is it the area I live in?
Thanks in advance

Oh OK just making sure I'm not the only one.
The highest speed I've seen ever is 4300 Mbps is that low? This is anywhere in the city not just my apartment
