Got it this morning. With 4G on, burns through battery very fast. Maybe my battery is still conditioning but this is a faster drain than the RAZR.

I'm really curious how the LTE and GSM models compare when it comes to battery life.
It might be because I'm in a low signal area. My Droid Razr definitely had a stronger signal at my job.

I'd also like to know if the extended battery affects it sitting in the dock...

Good chance it affects it. LTE uses way more power when it's on a low connection or trying to retain connection. Switching between 4G and 3G blasts the battery pretty hard.
I got an extra battery and charging cradle as part of a combo deal with the phone.
till the end of december you get 1/2 off accessories at Verizon stores. I don't think its advertised in the stores anymore, but if you have them scan a battery for instance it should show on sale.
but yeah, any LTE phone is going to need an extended battery. I wish I could find one like the 4500mAh one the Thunderbolt had.

This is incorrect, they have 1/2 off on certain LTE/4G batteries -- that was the deal. Nexus battery did NOT ring at half off for me this morning. (I got my 25% company discount though).
Also, LTE phones work fine as long as you aren't killing the data 24 hours a day. I've been using the Stratosphere for the past 2 months with the factory 1800mAh battery, and i can make it through a full day and be down to about 20% at the end with my normal usage pattern. The only reason it works for me though is b/c I have a 3G network extender in my office. I get zero LTE and only 1 bar of 3G normally, but thankfully the Samsung phones play well with the Samsung extender, so it jumps on 3G and just stays there until I leave work.
I actually had to get an extended battery for my Droid 3 before that, because Motorola's radios suck ass now, or at least they don't like the network extender. It would constantly drop off and try to get back on the 1 bar of "real" 3G, and all of the signal hunting absolutely destroyed the battery, even with a 3G-only device.
It really depends on how much it has to hunt/roam.
That all said, I did go with the extended on the Prime (they should've kept that name) because it doesn't change the profile at all and fits in desk/car docks, so why not. Plus, work pays for it, not me.

I guess no surprise there, my GSM battery life already sucks big time. 3 some hours of screen time just browsing the xda app on the lowest auto-bright setting over a 12 hour period. Everything off except data and 0 voice calls! The same thing has happened 2 days straight.

My VZW corporate had the extended battery, it was $25. The size difference really isn't much, you can hardly tell. The main difference is the back doesn't scallop in but has the slightest bulge. It really is hardly noticeably and the phone will still fit in an otterbox.
When i got the phone my store had batteries, and some cases, but nothing else. They were receiving a shipment that had a few car docks in it, but i hate the new dock since the phone portion isn't easily detachable from the base (in the past with OG Droid and other devices, I took off the phone part and attached it to a ProClip ball mount, can't do this with the GalNex).
I've called 3 stores in the area and none of them have desktop docks yet; there will eventually be two (The vertical w/HDMI and the horizontal for nightstand mode). Even vzw.com doesn't show either of the desk docks yet.

That's weird. I get great battery life with my Razr! Download Juice Defender and see if it helps.
I got my phone today and an extended battery at a VZW store. I was told all extended batteries for 4G phones are half off right now. Mine cost $25 after the discount.
Be careful plugging it up using an old charger. Didn't play well with the LG usb charger plug thingy.. I noticed the Samsung plug that comes with the phone is rated a little higher.
---------- Post added at 04:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:46 PM ----------
i notice my standard battery is acting goofy.. Got the phone at about 40% charge, and ran it down. Started charging and it jumped up to 30% charge in 15 mins. Battery still needs conditioning perhaps?

I finally broke down and bought an extended battery for the Evo. I bought the 3500 maH battery from gorillagadgets.com. They suggest cycling from completely full to completely empty.
So, I charged it completely, while I waited for that to charge, I ran my stock battery empty from 100% in just under 3 hours using slingbox. I then ran gorilla gadget battery the same way, slingbox running off of 3g, screen on the whole time and got 5:45. Not quite double the battery life, but close.
I ran it down the second time, this time with 4g, wifi (on, not connected), bluetooth, GPS all on. It ran for 4 hours and 45 minutes.
The third charge was more of a real world test for me. I took the phone to work for the first time. Normally at work I have very weak signal, and struggle to get 6 hours without having to replace the battery. After a 9 hour work day my phone was at 60%. It wasn't the heaviest of use days, but I managed to listen to music for 6 hours, text, web and read some articles on pulse.
I ended up just letting the phone run down naturally on its own, in the end the screen on time was just over 3.5 hours. So far I am happy with the purchase.

I have seen people get that with stock as well. Just not at my work. There are three of us with Evo's and none of us (no matter what Roms/Kernels)last a full day on one charge.
Sure we could beg our IT department to disregard their security policies so we can have an airwave pugged into the network so we can use of our phones. Or I guess I could explain to my wife and daughter if they needed to get a hold of me during the day, sorry I am saving battery life.
Or I can spend $40 for a battery, a back and a case that more than doubles the battery life I was getting, without have to turn of any of the features that make owning the phone great.

Airwave is a device similar to VOIP. You plug it into your high speed internet service and it transmits/receives a 1x signal for your phone. Like having a personal cell tower.

Is it 1x? My phone says 3G when I'm connected to my airave. I'm on AOSP so it does differentiate when I'm on 1x, however it's always 3g when in range of the airave. Not putting you on blast, just genuinely curious.
glad your happy with your battery life but just sayin i got just shy of 16 hours with 56% left on stock battery (9 months old) with actually using my phone not just letting it sit there like people who usually brag about battery. miui 1.9.9 and tiamat 4.0.8 (not sbc)
There is no way you get 15hrs while actually using your phone...I notice browsing the net at 3g burns the battery down fast...I once listened to DI radio and itll only last 3-4 hrs mostly bc the signal is going from 1X to 3g
i beg to differ. my stock battery has lasted almost 8 hours. the gorilla battery which is almost twice as large, i can see lasting close to 16 hours.
What you do with the phone matters & how good the signal is...these factors all make a huge diff...
Noticed a few people gving bad reviews on gg while the seidio got 600 good reviews...GG doesnt last long along with the other cheap batteries...

Confirmed! have had this battery for about 4 months now and it is lasting about half as long as it used to. if anything my battery consumption has been reduced due to various tweeks. and I have not really flashed many new roms. I am now barely getting 6-7 hours with moderate use. The first month or two I was pulling at least 13-14 hours. so my final review..... was worth the price for a quick fix, and I may buy another down the road, if I decide to keep my EVO past my contract ( which I am strongly considering )

DUDE! you got some serious wake lock going on there!
Question for the OP or anyone who has this battery: How does the battery door fit to the phone? Does it fit securely, and are there any gaps? Does the plastic scratch easily?
I have the Seido extended 3500mah battery, and not only did it's battery door not fit properly (large gaps) but one of the plastic hooks broke off on the first day. I sent it back to Amazon for an exchange, and the new one had the same problems, although the plastic hook managed to last a week before breaking. Also, the cheap plastic is very prone to scratching.
I purchased a Mugen extended battery door from ebay and it should be here by Monday, and I will post a little review of it.

It does stay in place but is loosening over time especially If you wind up pulling your battery often.

Yeah, I swap batteries daily...funny thing is the stock cover has no scratches or broken tabs, and I use it nearly as often as the extended battery (I start the day with the extended battery and then switch to the stock battery when it gets to 10%).
Having purchased both batteries I figured I would share with all of you the pros and cons of each battery. Firstly let me explain my situation. I purchased the HTC extended battery because I had a Seidio extended battery for my DInc1, so I couldn't stand the smaller battery on my DInc2. (Seidio had not released the DInc2 version yet.)
The HTC battery is obviously bigger and better than the stock battery that comes with the phone. It can last me all day with heavy use or at least two on light use. No complaints whatsoever other than when I place the phone on its back it muffles the speaker a little bit but it is bearable. I figured that since the Seidio battery was only a few dollars more but had 1350 mah more juice in it, that it was a worth it to sell my HTC battery and get the Seidio one.
I received my Seidio battery from a reputable website (don't know if I'm allowed to list it here on XDA or not) and at first everything seemed fine and dandy. Then I noticed my $70 brand new battery came packed with a chip in the paint on the outside of my battery door. It pissed me off but I figured it wasn't worth the hastle of sending it back. I immediately noticed it was no better than my HTC battery, but I figured I had to break it in.
I quickly realized the reason my battery wasn't working so well in that the signal connections in the battery door were not connecting to the phone antenna resulting in dropped calls, low signal, SMS messages not sending/receiving, etc. The result of this is that due to the phone always having a bad signal, the battery life would last shorter than the original stock battery that came with the phone itself. IMHO, for dishing out $70 for this battery, it should have blown my mind but I was sorely disappointed by the quality of this battery. I hope to say I got a lemon, but the physical imperfection in the outside of the door plus the awful signal quality was not worth it.
Long story short, get the HTC extended battery over the Seidio battery.
I took screenshots comparing the battery life/signal strength on my phone, and I will update with those as I'm typing this from my iPad.
Anyone else have a similar or different experience?
[/end rant]
Looks like I'm going to be ordering the HTC version, then, if Seido has that kind of QC trouble with their battery doors....
Once I order it in a few weeks, I'll try to update my post (if I remember) with how the HTC battery runs with the ICS alpha that I'm testing.

You should call back for sure. I have never been told by a customer service rep 6 hours is normal. Even on 4g they talk up battery life. On average I talk to customer service 5 or more times a day.

LOL. Yeah, when my mom got her Charge (this was before all the new awesome 4G phones), I was telling her how the battery will blow, but you get 4G, which she was fine with, and the rep said "no, they are all about the same for battery." It took willpower not to yell at him and explain that that makes zero sense.

I just wanted to chime in here... Since I read that on here, figured I'd give it a try.
I called up on Wednesday evening and complained about my battery life sucking after the updates. Rep understood that I'm technically inclined, but still made me reset the phone to factory settings before sending out a battery. Not sure if they can tell (maybe they see when it calls up to activate?), but whatever, no big deal.
Then he sends out the batteries (one for mine and one for my wife's) with next day FedEx. Pretty decent service, if you ask me.
I just got them today, and he sent me the standard (1450mAh) battery. So I guess I'll just carry 2 batteries all the time?
When he does his follow up call on Monday, I'll ask him about it.
Oh, and a buddy of mine just picked up the RAZR MAXX and said it lasts for a few days with normal usage (there's no 4G here, so I'm sure it doesn't last as long in 4G areas).
cool thanks for the info...
Decided to go ahead and buy the HTC extended battery and must say I am very pleased with how much longer my battery now lasts.

It is quite heavy and bulky though, nowhere near as svelte as the stock. It doesn't look that bad really, the back cover is textured like the stock cover.
Says it has NFC capabilities, but I don't use them, so I am not sure.
The one thing I found curious about it is the seeming uptick on the battery percentage at some times. Percentage would go up a percent or two every now and then when not charging or being used. I did not wipe battery stats prior to using this, so that may explain it. I will continue using the battery (back to the svelte stock today), but it has outperformed my hopes so far.
eh...a little out of budget
whats the sceen on time?
I'm able to get 5:30 hours of screen on time with the official 2000mah extended battery on my gsm gn.
I'm looking to get an extended battery, but it needs to do at least 7 hours of screen on time for it to be worth it.

Don't have a number yet. Doing another test today. Will update. Of course, the battery varies whether I am in LTE range or not. Also varies with brightness of the screen, etc. Therefore, I don't think screen on time by itself is very helpful in the determination.
Can u put some pics to see what it looks like with cover etc.? Any suggestion on compatible cases that might fit...?

I'd also like to see pictures of these, as I am also wondering if these would fit with any cases. Thanks.

The newly released Seido spring clip holster is designed for either a "naked" CDMA Galaxy Nexus -- or one sporting one of the monster extended batteries.

The one thing I found curious about it is the seeming uptick on the battery percentage at some times. Percentage would go up a percent or two every now and then when not charging or being used. I did not wipe battery stats prior to using this, so that may explain it. I will continue using the battery (back to the svelte stock today), but it has outperformed my hopes so far.

Clearing battery stats does NOTHING. N.O.T.H.I.N.G. The "uptick" is what happens when you slam the battery really hard (video streaming, gaming, whatever) and cause it to drop. The voltage will recover a bit from that once you stop, which cause the phone to recalculate the remaining power. All lithium batteries do this, you just notice it more on large cells because you can drain two watts from it without it dying first.

I will put some pictures up tonight or tomorrow. I don't use a case, so I don't know about what would fit. It is quite different size-wize, so something like the Seido case referenced above or a "bumper" case is probably your best bet.

Wow, I was just guessing, no reason to get so upset about it. I don't know much about that kind of stuff so I was just guessing while making my observations. Sorry for being uninformed on the matter.

29 hours on a charge this time. Probably 2-3 hours of LTE during that period - that definitely makes a dent. Pretty consistent use with a few heavy segments of use.
And for your question regarding on screen time:
But, like I said, I don't think you can judge too much off of that. All depends on screen brightness, LTE, etc.

I wasn't upset, nor do I blame you for thinking the way you did. That rumor swirled around here for the better part of 2 years. It just needs to be made abundantly clear to everyone that the battStats myth is a placebo. It doesn't do anything. In fact, the stats get cleared every time you unplug your phone after you charge it.
Pictures
As promised, here are some pictures:
The first two are with the stock battery installed:
Next three are just the covers, side by side. Stock obviously on the left in the first two.
Last three are the extended battery installed.
Let me know if you would like some other shots taken.
Overall, I am very satisfied with the battery. i easily get 1 day without having to charge. I actually like the heft that is added with the battery as well, makes the phone more substantial and seem less fragile.
I bought this battery as soon as I saw the thread. I received and installed it yesterday. I charged it for the full twelve hours that the manufacturer recommended and I'm on my first cycle now... so I can't comment on battery life. But as for the battery cover... it doesn't fit as well as I had planned. But it stays on, and is comfortable to hold. I actually like the larger back and the added weight that the battery brings.
I will report back with battery results after a few charge cycles.

Battery cover fits fine on mine, see my pics above, no problems. The bottom corners of the cover are starting to rub and the paint is coming off though. It makes the corners kind of black.

Be a Clear Battery Stat athiest if you want but don't push your liberal beliefs upon others.
Wipe 3x before flashing

Can you provide a review now that you have used it for a few weeks?
HI,
For any of you thinking about an extended life battery but aren't sure what works good. I got the Qcell 3650 battery. It's made specifically for T mobile version. I have no idea if it works on the others or not but on the package it says for the Hercules. I got it on amazon for 22 bucks and it's worth every cent. For my job I do alot of driving, and sitting in my car and waiting, so I love to use Netflix, Jetflicks, Listen to Sirius radio while driving. As I'm sure you know those activities will drain your stock battery in a few short hours. I'm able to watch 2 entire movies, Listen to 4 hours of Sirius radio and talk and text. At the end of the day I usually still have %20 left. When I first got it, and I had to drain it till it shut down and charge it back up 2 or 3 times to get the best battery life, I was having a hell of a time getting that to drain. lol. So if you get that you won't be disappointed.

is it possible to get a slim battery thats at least 2000mah
Very reasonable price for 3650 mah. Didn't see any mention of NFC. Always reassuring to have a powerful battery. Seems some really like it while others say it doesn't last any longer the stock battery. Suppose some people didn't have the patience to cycle the battery like you did. Thanks for letting us know that it is working well for you.

I think it came with like a %50 charge on it but I charged it to full before I used it. I basicly put wifi on and put movie after movie on Netflix until it died completely. Then I charged to full and repeated that process 3 times. I did have trouble making that battery die. It last sooo long,, by the same token it takes long to charge as well. Best thing is to charge it while you sleep weather I need it or not. NFC does work with this battery.

I'm sure there is. Check Amazon.com, that's what I always go to first. If not try NewEgg,com. If all else fails, there's always Eba y.. but on Amazon,
alawys check out the seller's stats. I only buy from sellers that have %95 positive and up, read some of the feedback and if possible see if someone make a video of it on you-tube. But a 2000 MAH batter isn't really worth paying for, you won't get much more life than you do with the stock.. Hope that Helps, :laugh:

HI,
No I didn't have an opportunity to use NFC but it does show up in the settings and activate when you check it. I don't have another phone to test it with. If I find one I'll let you know,, but as far as I know it does.. Maybe I can try it with my Tablet. I'll let you know.. :good:
:EDIT::
I just checked my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and it doesn't have NFC so I am unable to test it as of now. If you know another way I can test it for you let me know and I will..

There's a free download from play store called "z-device test" that i've used. And many others if you search for "nfc"
I've had my qcell in for 2 days and man this thing is a beast. The first night I had to pushy s2 to its limits to fully drain it. It recommended a 9 hour initial charge and then full charge and full discharge cycle 6 times. Good luck getting it to die. This battery far surpasses my expectations for a smartphone battery. Its slight added bulk and weight are welcomed in my opinion. Bay far the best $20 phone accessory I've ever purchased. And it was delivered in 4 days. With a full 180 day warranty you can't go wrong. Quit second guessing and debating and just buy one already lol

That is for S4, not S4 Active, I assume the two batteries are different .
The S4 (GS4) and the S4 Active (GS4A) share the same battery, thankfully: 2600 mAh stock, same size, specs, everything. I got a brand new one from Samsung just a few days ago (used that 50% coupon code they offered me when I registered my GS4A) and here's shots of the packaging:

I've seen some (S4, I think) reviews that say that the battery is a bit thicker than the original one and, that the back cover bulges a bit. Does this happen with the S4 Active as well? Having more betteries sounds nice but, I don't really want to have my water resistant phone become less resistant because of the battery.

Yes, they actually got delivered yesterday but the instructions say to charged them for 12 hours before use for optimal performance. I just put them in so no I can't make comment on battery life as of yet.
The packing was all quite nice/professional and the batteries feel solid. The postage also came well within estimated time frame.
Are they bigger than the Samsung batteries (in physical size)? Yes, they are noticeably thicker if you put the batteries end to end by maybe a millimetre. Would this compromise your water-seal? I can't say for sure, but I would not risk dunking the device in a bath tub while it has a zero-lemon in it.
I will do a better review tomorrow after some proper use.

I will get to the water-resistance first and then move onto other aspects in this review as I think that's what most people are concerned about.
I did several tests, but the ultimate outcome is that the zerolemon does compromise the seal. I put the bottom of the phone in a bowl of water for about 5 seconds with a samsung battery and then for 30 seconds, neither time did the seal break. I then did the same with the zero lemon. After 5 seconds, it appeared to be solid. After 30 seconds, the water had flowed in. I only put the bottom of the phone in as there is essentially little to worry about getting wet there. I would not expect the phone to survive being dropped in a pool or bathtub with a zero-lemon. Maybe a sink or toilet bowl if rescued quickly.
Continued review hidden:
As for battery life, it makes me through a full day of heavy use. While using samsung batteries, I would carry around a spare with me but I feel I wont need to do that anymore. This is still a very good option if you don't feel like sacrificing your water resistance or NFC. YOU WILL LOSE NFC. Zero lemon is able to give you that extra 400mah of power by removing NFC. This is fine for me, because NFC hasn't really been utilised in Australia by mobile phones yet, but with the expected release of Google Wallet here in the near future, I'll be keeping my Samsung batteries nearby. This leads me onto how I expect to use my batteries:
I think I will be using my zero-lemon while mostly on (long) day trips for work or fun around the city. I can carry the spare around if I think I may need to, but I doubt it. I also feel there would be less water hazards as compared to at home. At home, I will be using the samsung batteries as I feel I'm far more likely to get the phone wet at home where there are sinks, bathtubs, toilets, buckets of water, etc. I can also switch out on of my now four batteries at any time without having to carry it on me. I think the zero-lemons will become spares once NFC takes off in Australia, assuming I still have the S4A at that point.
The "worlds fastest charger" takes the same amount of time to charge a zero lemon battery as the samsung charger does to charge the samsung battery. This does mean that the charger is a fair amount faster. I haven't tested how long it takes to charge a samsung battery in the "worlds fastest charger" as I don't want to damage the samsung batteries and I am of the belief that the batteries actually limit the charge speed if you're not using an official Samsung charger(?).
One last thing about the batteries. If you look on the bottom of your Samsung batteries, there are little point bits that I assume are there purely to hold the battery in place. The Zero Lemon's are missing these, but the battery is already a very tight fit anyway, but it could be something to keep in mind.
If there's anything else you think I've forgotten, then let me know and I'll edit it in.
thx for your replies!!!! god blessed you
I also received my zerolemon batteries a couple of days ago. I have to say that they work really great and they hold charge a significant bit longer than the original samsung battery. i have now more than a normal usage day.
But it is then true that they are a bit bigger and there is now a small gap in the back cover, under the speaker, where water could sneak in if the phone were immerged.. which is not so cool
Regarding the wall charger I couldnt say much since I live in Europe and it is designed for US wall power points... I might aswell get my hands on an adapter.. no hurry anyway.
all in all they are really good batteries.
cheers
hi would that battery fit the i9295 variant?
