its alot bigger than the original but if it can add days to battery i'm cool with that.
i ran battery cal once it had had a decent charge so now to see how it goes.
feel free to add any helpful comments
Try the clibration after at least 3 complete charge and discharge cycle to obtain a stable result for a new battery...
That's ugly!
Hahahaha!

Bought it for $20 on Amazon just to see how long those extended batteries last. Here's the first 100% to 5% run since I've received the battery 2 days ago.

As you've probably noticed, I use the phone more as a portable computer/gps/media-player than an actual phone so that's why screen-on time is quite low. No need to have display on when jamming music So yeah, personally I wouldn't use this as my daily driver since the battery bulge looks and feels horrid but I guess for some people the great battery life and the $20 price tag will be a fair trade.
Enjoy!
any pics????????
Didn't see a need to take them. Just search Google or XDA and you'll find more pics that you'll ever need ;-)
I can but i would like to see a hyperion battery lol

I was looking for a battery cover to replace mine and ditch the carrier branding. I love the look of the Int. cover, how it was designed.
Anyway there are a lot of sellers for these things and they range in price from high to low. Just wanted to give a heads up in case anyone was looking for one. This guy shipped INCREDIBLY fast. Like 4-5 days fast, I wasn't expecting it for at least 2 weeks.
How do you know that the battery cover is OEM?
EDIT: Also, what was the ship time?

i never knew there is 2 version of back cover for s3, i find the at&t version nicer
Hey guys, title says it all, anyone know of what I just posted about? Battery life on this thing is a flat out joke, and I am rooted with bloat and whatnot removed.

I have the black translucent D3O case and its beautiful, I'd rather not do away with it, but if it means be able to use my damn phone, ill do it lol.
I did see a decent looking case designed for phones with the extended battery. *Sigh*

what is your screen on time?
tap on "screen" in that battery screen
There is something wrong there, either a rogue app or hardware related. I regularly get 4+ hours of screen time.
plenty of alternatives. grabbing a 2nd OEM batt would be easiest.
if your not into that i did a review on a Extended battery here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787678&highlight=max+power
but FYI i was getting like double the battery life you are on the OEM batt.
So... I bought a cheap "extended" battery for my glorified wifi hotspot and I plug it in and this is what it says. I found it funny, so I thought I would share.
I'll report on battery life as I go through the first few charging cycles
I use my OV for Pandora and as a wifi hot spot at work. So take my numbers with a grain of salt.
For 10 bucks, if it even does an hour over my stock battery, I'll be happy. I planned on using both anyway.
If the battery life is fantastic, I'll be buying another one, and an external charger. If anyone has a recommendation on a external charger, that'd be awesome. Preferably one thay is universal so I can charge all my extra batteries with it. (Note 2 stock, Rezound extended, Rezound stock, misc camera batteries)
My friend is giving me his Rezound and says that it has a hard time charging, so I figured an external charger would be best until I ca diagnose the problem and fix it.

Hello,
I'm nearing the end of my 14-day return/exchange at T-Mobile and just wondering if these pictures and these battery stats are similar to what everyone else is getting.

Well, these days I haven't been anything close to that. Been only getting like 2-3 hours of screen time but I do have Spotify one for about an hour though.
