If a Chinese extended battery swells a little in the middle but works fine should I be considered about the battery burning up
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
If a battery is swelling, you should be very concerned, and stop using it immediately. It could explode at any time and the acid inside could seriously burn you or others.
K thanks

Even if it doesn't explode, it could crack and cook your phone. Dispose asap!

The best one would probably be a stock one made by htc.
I used a generic branded 3500mAh battery bought on Amazon.com from a seller called Quickshippers. It works out wonderful and is only a fraction of the cost of the expensive Seidio ones.
The only reason I went back to stock is because I'm getting fantastic battery life with evodeck. And I'm usually just plugged in and charging while at work. I missed the sheer thinness of the stock battery.
How long does a extended battery take to fully charge
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
3500 BATTERY takes about 6 to 8 hours to charge. But if u dont use an SBC kernel, it will never fully charge.
I am trying this new kernel release from HTC now, and it looks promising, but only on second day. Too early to see if it actually fully charges 3500s

Seidio Slim
The Seidio Slim battery is slightly better according to some reviews I have read, but then again I don't believe I have read enough of them to lead me to believe that is better than just buying the Stock from HTC which is more durable. Just a thought not a proven fact.

I have the Motorola one. My battery life has close to doubled. Plus I was able to use my original battery door with it. Which means I am able to use the same case. Although not everyone has had the same experience with the oem battery door working.

Many people have reported problems with their screen from using the stock door with the extended battery so just be careful doing so. Hopefully it works good for you! I also have the motor extended battery and my battery life has significantly increased by several hours a day.

I really don't see why anybody is even bothering with the stock battery door with the EB??? The "proper" door is 1mm. Lol, come on. 1mm for 20 hours between charges is well worth it in my opinion.

I have the Moto extended battery and love it. I bought it before a business trip thinking I'd swap over mid flight to the stock battery when I ran it down. I havent swapped back to the stock battery since. I unplug from the charger at 6:30a on day 1. I usually plug back into the charger around 10p on day 2 unless we're going out in which case I'll charge the phone around 5p on day 2.

i can confirm accounts of this happening to people, just saying
The extended battery is great only adds a little bit of thickness with new door. I tried using stock door but it caused problems with my screen.

I just received the otterbox defender(vzw rugged) and the moto eb today. Using the eb door with the otterbox just fine. But because I have to mod everything, I did shave just a little off the inside of the otterbox. Fits like a glove. Oh and the eb is the best. Love it.

I had the extended for awhile i couldn't get over the bulk of it .
Have a hero and a TP2 so i just keep 2 charged batterys at a time and switch
I found the cheap ones work just as-well as the 60 dollar ones at best buy aslong as you condition them
I only paid $13 for this battery. I haven't even seen it's full potential yet. I'm a bit worried cause now I cannot use a case for it..but gives me more reason to try going red with it. Anyway, I was switching between 3 batteries and it wore out
My back. It was convenient yet annoying. So these batteries just need some conditioning?

I got mine for 8 dollars on Amazon lasted 2 days all i would do is calibrate at 100% completely drain then repeat for the first few charge cycles.
Worked like a charm just couldn't get over the girth
Hmm I see. I can get used to it, I just cannot have it in my pocket at work anymore. And its no longer protected so it is risky but I needed a change since I'm not getting the 3D right now lol

But from what i see the GB 2.3.3 battary life is ok on the new EVO's that is Hardware 004
I am very sorry if there is already topic like this one.
I found on ebay a battery that was 3500mAh or 3600mAh I don't recall exactly, but they say that it is the exact size like the original and won't change the size of the phone like the 5000mAh does.
My question is did someone has it,and how is it working? How many hours did your phone last?
Thank You in advance!

Absolute nonsense. Every battery that claims vast improvements in the same form factor is a scam.
If 3500mah could fit in the space provided, Samsung would have included a 3500mah battery.

If you meant the Gold battery, then it is 3500mAh. I bought two and noticed a huge difference compared to my stock battery. The stock used to power the phone until 7pm with moderate usage, wifi and bluetooth always on. Ever since I used the Gold battery, the battery still is at approximately 40% at 11pm. The battery still is 2 days old but still, the difference is noticeable
can you guys do a nova battery tester run on those batteries?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
Mine came with 2800 mAh. Since it's cheaper than stock it has worth the purchase. Don't get your hopes high with these batteries.
Your srock may be dieing if it's almost a year old. Mine got down to 1700 mAh and this explains the "huge" difference you see in your new battery.

I bought the Gold battery two months after I got my Note so it means the OEM is still at it's peak. But yeah, I really don't have high hopes for replacement batteries. They may have a higher charge but they won't last as long as OEM. Like my dslr batteries, I get more juice out of the replacement batteries but my OEM battery outlasted them. But it is still worth it for me. What good is a camera (or phone in this case) if it does not have power when you really need it? Battery life does not matter to me (atleast in my case since I could buy 4 to 5 replacement batteries for 1 OEM dlsr battery - the Gold battery however, is another case).I keep that mantra all the time and I am happy with it :laugh:
first of all, this isn't a battery that you use in your phone, its just an external battery pack that you can connect your phone/ipod/psp/camera to via cable to charge. I like this because i dont have to make my phone bulky with a bigger back cover to accomodate for the bigger battry because i dont always need a bigger battery. Usually charging evrrynight is good enough, however, when i go out on a long trip then i keep this compact device with me and comes in handy! I would definately reccomend it. I got it on amazon for $30. Its not too big considering that its 5600 mahs!
