Mugen 3200mAh Battery Heating Up - Galaxy S II Accessories

I have just bought this battery and i noticed that when using sygic navigation the battery heats up significantly - this never happened with the original 1650 and the 2000 samsung batteries.
Anyone having same problem?

Its normal when using GPS, but with a such battery the heat is 1.5x bigger
(its pumped to death with energy)

Momax battery charger

Using my momax battery charger now. And im surprised as it fully charge a less than 5% battery to full in around an hour. Also got me the momax 1450mah. This is lower than stock 1650mah. But so far the difference in performance is barely noticeable. The battery charger also attaches via an included usb cord to the phone so it can charge both phone and battery. Im always full. Happy as clam. Non stop surfing. Do you think this is a better setup than an extended and fat 3200mah battery?

As I can see, that is a matter of personal preference, despite the fact that 3200mah would be a wonderful battery, it is ridiculous in size, and I wouldn't use one. As far as I have read these fat batteries don't really do much better than stock. I bought a pair of 1800mah batteries, same size as stock, and I notice little to no increase over stock battery when it was new. Which leaves me happy with them anyways.
Hope I helped.

[Q] Extended high capacity battery for Galaxy 3???

Anybody have knowledge where to get extended high capacity battery for Galaxy 3? Like 1650, 1800, 2000, 2400, 2800 or even 3000mAh capacity?
Please I desperately need one.
Galaxy 3 has good battery life compared to other smartphones, extended batteries are made only for phones with low battery life. I don't think that there is one for G3, you can get a spare battery if you want. You will have double battery life, and your phone will remain slim, it won't have a bulk on the back.

[Q] Good replacement battery for DHD?

Has anybody tried this one?
Search for "2430MAH HIGH CAPACITY BAS470 GOLD BATTERY FOR DESIRE HD" on ebay.
Any good suggestions for replacement battery?
I have just bought this one:
Andida Battery For HTC Desire HD Ace 1800Mah
Didn't know there also where 2430Mah ones
These high capacity batteries are all BS. It's not possible to fit that much extra capacity in a battery of the same size. Very few of these third party batteries are from reputable companies and safe to use. All of them are around the same capacity as the original stock battery. There's a 1500 mAh battery by Mugen which is the max you get I guess. These 'super high capacity' batteries are actually the same capacity as the stock one or probabaly a little more. You won't notice a dramatic increase in battery life as you expect, and sometimes they have worse battery life than the stock battery.

+1 on the high capacities being BS. I got a replacement 1600mAh battery for $6.99 delivered off eBay and it works fine but doesn't hold a charge much longer if at all than my 1230mAh stock battery.

New battery

Hello all,
Just a quick question, I ordered a new battery the other day (2450 mAh) and it only charges to 80% before saying it is full. I'm sure that even though I'm on stock kernel I should be able to run a larger battery, so I'm assuming the battery is faulty.
Could anybody give me clarification on the biggest battery size you can run on stock kernel?

Do a battery calibration, google it.
I lot of the 'unbranded' batteries with optimistic power capacities have no regulations around what they state the 'real' usable mAh life of the battery is.
I'd be very surprised if the battery gives you longer usage than your original 1700mAh battery.
I'm guessing it'll probably be considerably less.
There is no limit to battery capacity within the limits of what you can physically fit into the recess provided for the BA900 battery.
Mugen Power can only get a 1900mAh battery in that size... so that's something to consider when you think about a 2450mAh battery.

[Q] Onite or Hyperion extended battery?

Hey guys just a quick simple question, which of these two brands is more reputable and offers higher quality batteries?
http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-GT-i...843965&sr=8-2&keywords=i9250+extended+battery
http://www.amazon.com/Onite-Extende...843965&sr=8-1&keywords=i9250+extended+battery
Both have good ratings on amazon but I was wondering about guys who actually have these batteries. Is the larger hyperion better than the NFC equipped Onite? FYI I never really use NFC so it is not a factor here. I just want to get the better quality, longer lasting battery.

I don't have the Hyperion battery, I instead have once from QCell and the Onite (3500) you linked. I got them since October/Septmeber 2013 and both of them blow the stock (1700) battery away. But my QCell battery seems to last a little bit longer (and I think its a slightly larger capacity battery) but the battery seems to discharge at a weird rate. It rapidly discharges and then it gains back a couple of %. As a result, the battery graph looks very spiky jittery mess. But it still works fine but it may randomly shut down at the 5-10% mark.
Right now, I use the Onite as a daily driver for those reason alone as it doesn't derp like the Qcell does. It definitely falls under the category of not bad. But be warned batteries of this size will make your phone huge, bulky and heavy haha. Picking up a Nexus 5 will make you think its a feather light after using huge batteries on the GNex.
Wifi use at home easily gets me 5-6 hour screen on time with a little more than 2d uptime. The days where I go out the entire day, it would last about 4 hours +/- screen on time (I run at way higher brightness when I'm not at home), BT on when in the car streaming audio for 1 hour, average signal and about 15+ hours uptime because I replug in when I sleep with usually 10-30% to spare. In short, I never run out of battery less than a day of usage. Almost double the battery life of stock battery. With Trinity kernel, you easily gain an extra half an hour of SOT on this battery.
GTA SA though kills the Onite battery flat in 2h 30m of continuos gaming with thermal throttle disabled (Trinity kernel) at 20%+ brightness

I would go for the Onite, for sure. Even if I don't really like to use not original battery. I think it's unsafe for the smartphone itself.

Thanks for that really in depth response, I appreciate it. I will definitely buy the Onite battery. Thank you again.
I bought the Hyperion 2 days ago and here are some screen shots of my usage yesterday, I think I could do better with some modifications...
