I want to be able to get an external battery charger that will charge both the extended battery and the standard battery (both OEM). Will the cheapo external battery chargers on ebay charge both batteries (extended and standard)?
I bought this one on eBay and it will charge my extended (2100 Verizon) and my standard battery.
Hope the link works, if it doesn't, just search eBay for: 200746576954

The cheap ebay ones charge the 2100 fine but don't fit the 3800 sadly. I learned this after ordering mine...

Hey guys, quick question. I brought a few extra batteries for me EVO via eBay. Now I am not expecting them to be the same quality as the OEM batteries, but for 20 bucks and for emergency use only... (I got a car charger, 2 batteries, battery charger, HDMI cable, 2 cheap cases, screen protector, and a weird stylus for only $20) so my question lies in swapping out the batteries. With all the talk about battery stats, will swapping out the battery screw with my stats? Any thoughts, recommendations?

As long as you charge the replacement to full via the wall charger before using it you shouldn't have any trouble.I have 2 replacements I got from China that last almost as long as the original.

Would someone please recommend a functional battery charger for the extended thunderbolt battery?
I have purchased 3 Seidio battery chargers, and they have all been defective.
Thanks in advance.
I got one of the cheap ones I got with two hyperion batteries on Amazon and it works great with the extended.

Yeah I got one of the cheap ebay ext batteries with the charger that can be plugged in with either the usb or straight ac. Works ok so far. It was only a 1700 mah.
i have a couple of these and they work great for just about anything:
Belkin USB Wall Charger
you just use the USB cable that came with your phone and plug it in to that.
So after ordering two 1900mah spare batteries from ebay I found out that the antenna for the NFC chip is located in the battery. The replacement batteries I ordered do not have the antenna, neither do any of the other batteries I've seen. So I went to the source Samsung.com and they aren't available for the GSM version only the Verizon version batteries were being sold. So where do I find a GSM extended battery? Or any battery with the NFC antenna inside? As for the batteries I ordered? I guess they'd be fine in a jam but to lose features like beam & NFC is unacceptable for the long haul. All feedback is much appreciated.

A seller named shimshop on eBay is selling 2000mah extended batteries that are genuine Samsung, with NFC. There are many threads mentioning this. I bought one as well.

here's the link,
http://www.ebay.com/itm/12083246205...NX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_4968wt_905
ships from South Korea so it might take 1-2 weeks for arrival
Something to consider is switching over to external USB batteries. Not only are internal batteries phone-specific (and obviously have NFC issues with the Galaxy Nexus), but there is an increasing trend towards using polymer batteries that are able to fit in unusual shapes but are not user-replaceable (easily). I've got a pair of APC UPB10s. They work with all four phones my wife and I carry, as well as my Bluetooth headset, a host of other devices, and I've got an adapter that lets me use it on my infant daughter's bouncer and swing. I can also carry it in my pocket without a cover (or fear my keys will short it out), I charge it via a mini-USB port (micro would be better, but I don't need a battery charger), and it has a 10,000mAH capacity compared to a spare battery running on the order of 2000mAH. The only downside is that if I'm out of juice I become tethered to it until I can recharge, but a little pre-planning lets me charge in my pocket and it still beats needing to power off my phone just to swap a battery.
Just something to think about instead of dropping more money on batteries you'll end up throwing away when you upgrade your phone.
I actually have three oem samsung batteries, 2 standard and 1 extended, and 1 third party brand at 1450mAh, i've also ordered, but not yet received yet a powerocks 7800mAh external battery.
i wont even need to change out the extended battery, or even use the external, so I dont know why i have all these.

If you need a replacement battery either 1) buy from your local electronic store and get a stock battery (cheaper than that ebay seller) or 2. buy the anker 2500 mAh battery. no negatives review for that battery and its $12 on amazon.
+ 1 for anker, long time user with i9100 and now have 2 on the way for Gnote

this is a good universal external battery charger. i've used it to charge my LG Optimus one, Atrix and galaxy nexus batteries. its a bit slower than the adapter though only about 700mA
