Any special way to condition a new extended battery?

Just recieved my 2800 mah extended battery. Should i do anything special besides draining and fully charging.

No that is terrible advice. Charge cycling Li-Ion batteries destroy them, not increase battery life.
@OP: The only thing you need to do is make sure you let the phone charge for 7-8 hours after you put in the battery. After that, no conditioning is required. However, if at a later date you notice your Vibrant is not properly reading the battery (i.e. it goes from 100->90 really quickly, but goes from 90->80 more slowly, etc.), you will need to calibrate the battery to your device by completely draining the battery and charging it. Take note that this charge cycle will not increase battery life -- it will only make your Vibrant read the battery properly.

BTW Would it be possible for you to take picture of how much fatter the battery makes your phone?

Where did you buy this battery from? Looking to get my hands on a good one.

Vibrant BiONYX 3.1/ brama

I got it from ebay and it fits perfect. If you have patience you can order through the seller below. Im in north florida and it took almost 3wks to get to me. Theres also another seller from US but he wants $30 for the exact same battery. He claims that the batteries from china are crap, he is lying. This is the seller he orders them from.

Greatest investment ever. I might be able to take pictures tomorrow. Currently my battery is at 40% and have been running for 1day 3hr 17mins as of this post. And an app im using batteryleft from Eugenes r11 stats time left is 11hrs.
Under battery use through the settings. Displays at 60%, Voice calls at 40%, Cell Stand by is at 20% Phone idle at 5%, and I made a mistake leaving wifi on all day.
Size is really a personal preference. I adds the needed weight to the phone, and makes it extremely easy to hold. The Vibrant with original cover/battery would slip out of my hands when it was naked and the rubberize battery cover solves that.
I use my phone for music in my car and at work through default music app/slacker/pandora and now I can lay my phone on its back and the speaker is not blocked.
Ive had all my friends, coworkers etc look/hold it and they all like the way it feels and that it fits perfectly in your hand. All in all, im someone who is always playing with my phone and now I getting a little more then double the battery life.
My usually day:
20+ 5min phone calls
Playing angry birds throughout the day
20+emails
15-20txt
web surfing/tapatalk/xda app
watch some youtube
listen to music at work/car 3-4hrs
wasnt connected by wifi was on for most of the day
My Main reason for getting the extended battery-3g on ALLDAY
extended battery+r11 great battery life.

pictures, sorry there from my girls iphone4. Bic lighter for size comparison. Most people who consider phones bricks feel like moto razr to me. Not for folks that wear skinny jeans lol. BUt as big as it looks its truly not that bad. I will probably buy an extended battery with every future phone I buy. I was one who always thought ext batteries were ugly but now I am a believer.
If you dont have the patience, this is the same battery but always us sellers have to make a profit. He orders from guy above. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130448289815&ssPageName=STRK:MEBOFFX:IT

Is this safe to use?

This exactly what I as thinking but you truley have to see it in person. The pictures does it no justice. If you have small hands, I can see how this could be a problem.
The bulge in the back makes it look extreme but its truly not that bad.

I dont have the exact time but not really long. Since I can go a good 2days now inbetween charges. Whenever I do charge its usually overnight.

now I'm tempting to buy this, only thing that's keeping me is the processor might be cooked becuase of the temperature.

Vibrant Battery Questions

Has anyone ever tried out the Powerskin? I've been looking around for comparison pictures but can't find any
http://power-skin.com/battery-cases/ap1505i90/samsung-galaxy-powerskin.html
Looks like a nice case/battery combo. I don't want something too bulky though DOH.
I've also been looking into the Galaxy S 4G battery (1650mah), but can't seem to find any for sale. Got any links?
Are there any higher capacity batteries that don't require a new battery door? What about a slightly higher capacity battery that doesn't require a HUGE door?

here is the back door + battery for galaxys 4g

You can't even imagine how big powerskin makes your phone. The weight alone is ridiculous. When you look at pictures people have taken it doesn't look like that much, but it literally turns your phone into a brick. I used it for 1 day then I through down the stairs into my basement hehe. Also as a side note not only does it drastically add thickness, it also makes your phone about an inch longer rendering your headphone jack useless.

3500mAh Extended Battery Result

I bought a "3500mAh EXTENDED BATTERY+DOOR Fr SAMSUNG Captivate I897" from E-bay. So far, so good. I recommend it to anyone who wants a great boost in battery life. Plus it's less than $10. I am running FASTY II 2.0. I's say medium usage, mostly texting, and checking email, and Facebook.

No, it's just a menu option to view battery usage.

I can vouch for this battery, it freakin rocks! & It's a few bucks cheaper now, I got it at $15 shipped a while back.
I was on Fasty 2.3 when I tested the battery, medium usage overall...heavy texting though.
Edit: Hmmmm....now that I see that picture, I wonder why my phone didn't include stats for my WiFi or calls or stuff like that. Weird.

Not to be a Debbie-Downer, but out of four of these that I have received, only one seems to put out more juice that the OEM batt. That being said, I love the one that works!
I ordered a pair of these from ebay. One wouldn't hold a charge for more than a few minutes. I contacted the seller and told them that one of the batteries was bad. They ended up sending two more as a replacement. Out of the four, one is great (I would guess maybe 2500 mAh?), one is around the same as the OEM battery, one I get constant reboots with, and the one that doesn't hold a charge.
I love my one that works. It was well worth it for the price, but clearly there are some quality issues going on.

thinking about getting one of these if I go on a larger trip. I allready have a spare 1650mAh Battery though.

It's just good to know I can use my phone heavily and not run out of battery before the day's end. Of course if you're playing graphic intense games then that will never be possible.

I might check this out. Ever since I got on the 2.3.4 gingerbread roms and running Dark Core/Talon my battery life has gone to crap.

I received my bad boy today. I cut my rubber case so it protrudes out, and I honestly don't mind it. It makes holding the phone somewhat nicer, than a flat brick. I charged it for only 2 hours, but now i'm letting it go for 8. Then i'll wipe stats and whatnot. But it's pretty damned nice so far. When I received it, it was at 45%, and it took atleast two hours of 3d games to bring it to 25%. I'm really amazed this was $10, and I paid for faster shipping ($5).
It seems really worth the price, and I would like to thank the poster again for mentioning this.

You're very welcome. I'm glad you are having good results also. I've been using this for about a week now, still getting great performance.

I can attest to this battery as well. It just wont die. I have had it for the last 3 days, and each charge cycle that I give it brings more time to the battery. I went from being at 32% after a full day on the stock battery with moderate usage, to 60% with this battery today on heavy to almost excessive use. I'm talking, videos on youtube, Downloading apps, texting, calling, music ect. All of this is on Fasty II 2.1 and its just incredible to see my phone go for so long now.

Just ordered mine But going to use latest Stable of Miui

I can also attest to the excellant performance of this battery. I just got mine last night. First thing I did was charge it with the phone off to 100%. I played 3d games for about 30 minutes, watched a 2 hour movie, about 30 minutes of internet browsing, used gps for 30 minutes on my way to work this morning, and have been listening to pandora for the pass 2 hours and I'm at 52%!!! My previous battery would have been DEAD by now. For 15 bucks this battery is a no brainer! I'm sure as others have posted that the battery life will only improve once I calibrate it and charge it a few more times.
Thanks to the OP.

I can get over a day on the stock battery!

You may be able to get over a day, but what do you do with your phone? Do you use any programs like Juice Defender? Are you a power user? Way all do you do that makes your stock battery last for over a day?

I can generally browse for "a few" hours on 4G without needing to plug in. I don't pay much attention to specifics as unlike the Note 1, the Note 2 isn't very limiting for me. The Note 1 was awful for needing a micro-reactor in your pocket almost. Do you keep your battery over 90% charge often? It's possible it's getting weaker as it gets older. You can order a replacement battery cheap enough and see. They also usually come with an external charger so you could just swap batteries and go. I do that on long road trips.

Is true the replacement battery maybe hurt the phone bcse they have diferent voltage? I heard that from some guy in yhe shop.

If you get a real Samsung battery I'd think not. Make sure the voltage matches. I can't remember, is the S3 3.7V or 3.8V? I got an Anker extended battery and it improved the battery life immensely.

It depends on many different factors not just screen on and 4g on. 1% per 3 minutes equates to 300 minutes or 5 hours. I have drained my battery completely in 4 +/- hours time. It's completely normal as I have other phones to compare it with. I have another note 2, 2 galaxy s3, iPhone 4s,5s that I have tested against and they provide worse battery life in same situation.
Not all these phones are mine. I just swap it with family/friend members to test out for a day or two.
For batteries I recommend Anker. I have 2 Ankers for my note 2 and 3 Ankers for my galaxy s3.

Since I use my N2 as my laptop replacement and am on it all day, battery life was a problem for me from the beginning. I found Battery Drain Analyzer helpful. I kept it running for a couple of months and was able to determine which apps consume the most power (widgets, by far). But, after having spent hours trying different underclocking configurations without much success as far as saving a lot of power, I ended up buying three extra OEM batteries. It's really awesome to not have to worry about it. I just keep them in my pocket and swap them out as needed. It's not a very technologically advanced solution, but, it sure is effective. I also picked up this, and, obviously, now, I am never without power. Also, I use this Charger for the spares. It takes a long time to charge the batteries, but charges them fully to 100%, whereas, charging the battery in the phone doesn't seem to work as well.

MobileTechReview does a review of the Zero Lemon. The back case is the only thing that keeps me from getting it. Not that it sticks out, but that it's like a soft rubber. The whole back. The video shows it better than I can explain it.

Think that was the original case they reviewed? They changed it a little bit (better fit) before the release a week or two ago. They are also coming out with a rugged case in about a month.

New battery, insane battery performance

I've gone through a number of batteries and long story short, they've all sucked. Even the original stock battery was crap. I've been using this battery for almost 4 weeks and I've been getting absolutely stellar battery life. I'm well beyond that initial conditioning phase.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2450mAH-EB6..._Cell_Phone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item4ac2c14f8b
2450mah. I'm usually skeptical of higher mah ratings as you can only cram so much juice into a given form factor, but I'm left wondering if lion chemistry has really improved this much. Ever so slightly thicker than a standard stock battery (same size as the 2100mah andida if anyone else had one), but fits the stock battery back w/ a bit of manipulation. E4GT is stock GB27 (w/ root). I'll get more screenshots now that I'm really paying attention to performance.
I'm getting consistent 4hours+ of screen on time while actively using the phone. 2 google accounts, sync enabled, no kernel tricks, 'auto' screen brightness (not lowest), haven't even disabled useless apps, etc.
Sample size will soon be 2; i've ordered a 2nd battery for my wife's phone so I'll compare once it gets here.
tldr: 4+, could probably eek out 5 hours of active screen on phone use w/ a standard size (non-ugly hump) battery.

Nice I can barely get 1 hour of battery life from mine.

How's the battery holding up now about 6-7 weeks since you got it? Still really good battery life? When you do about 4-5 hours of screen time how many hours of battery life are you getting? Also what rom are you on? And how does your wife's battery that you ordered compare? Sorry for the 21 questions, but thanks

I'm wondering this too.

im also wondering if this is legit...not a bad investment for $7 but it wouldnt even be here for another month. I just got an epic 4g for $50 and am super satisfied with it (coming from the beast Note 2)...I'm actually surprised with its performance all around EXCEPT for the battery life. I do realize the battery and phone are close to 2 years old which is why im looking into a new battery.....
but really, selling my note 2 for 400 and picking this up for 50 is prob the best investment I ever made, saving my upgrade for "the next next big thing" :good:

I bought 2 of these for $10 about 2 weeks ago and so far so good. With 4g, bluetooth, and gps on all day, I get about 14 hrs (with 3.5-4hrs screen time) and still have about 15% before putting it to charge. Great deal

So you been using it for 2 weeks? Is it really a stock sized battery - will fit with otterbox? Think I might get it... 4 hours screen time is excellent

I'm on Calks EL29, so not a JB rom, but yes 2 weeks. Its a little tight, so I took the label wrap off to save some thickness.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app

Is it able to fit inside the phone without having to buy a replacement back?

Yes, you still use the same stock back the phone came with, its just tighter.
The only question in my mind is longevity, as I have purchased some knockoff batteries (sold as Samsung OEM with almost identical labeling as the original battery), that started to degrade within a month and now are useless except for short term emergencies.
Most people on these forums swear by Anker batteries, which I've never tried, but I still have Ferocity Mobile batteries (bought on ebay but no longer sold) which are still going strong. They just dont hold a candle to these 2450s,so they are my backup batteries now (have two Epic Touch phones in the family).
I will report back periodically on how they are performing over time.

Would you or OP be able to do a test on those 2450 batteries that OP has? Do you have the same type of battery as OP? If so could you please run a streaming netflix 3g test on it and see how long it runs till it drains from 100 to zero. I'm a HEAVY user on my phone and that would be the closest way to gauge it to my usage even though i don't stream video all day lol. Thank you

Yes, same battery as the OP.
Link the test and I'll try it.

Callibratimg doesn't do anything useful. It doesn't hurt either but it is pointless.

How about calibrating a bigger battery? I have the QCell 4100 and I was told to calibrate it everytime I pull it off the charger at 100%.

Callibratimg does nothing for the battery. It clears the battery stats. That's it. A reboot does the same thing.
