Will the battery of Galaxy Note II fit for Galaxy Note I?

Hello everyone, by now i hope everyone knows the launch of Samsung Galaxy Note 2. And while i was going through its features, both hardware and software, it struck me, can we use the battery of galaxy note 2 for galaxy note 1. I was unable to get any ibformation regarding this so i planned to post a thread here, so that if at all anyone knows something about it, will let us all know about it too.
I am a happy galaxy note user. Pretty hapy with usage, camera, browsing, apps etc etc...but the one thing that annoys me is battery life. Continuous usage with wifi switched on, gives me just 3 to 4 hrs of usage and while i use data plan it hardly makes to 3 hrs.
So i wondered, if we can use the galaxy note2's battery for note 1, then we would have a giant 3100 mAmp battery for us.
I saw that galaxy note 2, is almost the same size of galaxy note 1, with a slight increase of height and decrease of width, but did not see the battery in any of the videos yet.

I highly doubt you could buy a Samsung Galaxy Note II battery and fit into your original Galaxy Note, but there are plenty of larger batteries out there from companies such as Anker.

You can always use a hammer....

Thanks for replying..
I was just willing to know if at all there is any chance for the battery of Galaxy Note 2 to fit in Note 1, because the thickness of Galaxy Note2 is even less when compared to Note1. But if at all it fits, I will be the most happiest person :laugh:

Very funny of you @friedje, Very funny

Before moderators close your thread I wanted to leave my mark. I hope you don't mind. Love my binary rebellious against injustice.
Now to make this post relevant to the OP. No I don't think SGN2's battery would fit in original note.

Why would this thread be closed?

I too was thinking of note 2, as 3100mah is huge,i can't say the same for its placement,bcoz though it's slim, the ergonomics have been changed, since note 2 u can remove sd card without pulling the batteries,
N why should this thread be closed

This board got spammed with a bunch of note 2 threads, and so for the time being they are not allowing new Note 2 threads.
You must just post onto the current note 2 sticky.
I am guessing that the reason the battery has 25% more capacity is because it is 25% longer, to match the increased length of the Note.
So I highly doubt Note 2 batteries will fit in the note 1. It's quite possible, however, that you can put Note 1 batteries in the Note 2 (with spacers) similar to how S2 batteries could be used in the Note 1. The battery contacts were in the same location.

Why would you even want to do that? The original 3100mAh battery will be as expensive(if not more) than a 3500mAh battery from a different brand.

People saying generally that it couldnt be possible for a battery of a different sammy phone to work on the note be advised:
the battery of the galaxy S worked for me on the note 1. with the help of cut q tips to help push the battery up cause its shorter, was a life saver!

Given the fact that no infos about the shape of the note 2 battery are available right now every answer here has to be considered a mere guess. But it's also completely irrelevant whether the note 2 battery works with the note or not since there are plenty of batteries with different capacities available. And most of them are certainly cheaper than an original note 2 battery which isn't even available yet.

I saw a photo of the Note 1 & 2 side by side with the backs off somewhere in cyberspace (no way to find it again). It was very apparent the 3100mAh battery is significantly longer than the 2500 one, no way it will fit in the space allowed by the original Note's case..

Is it?

If what you said is true, that battery of note2 bigger than note1, then, thats the end of my hope to have a genuine samsung LARGER battery for my note1 :silly:
But can anyone please let me know where can I find a battery of large capacity in Hyderabad/India that can fit in Note1 without changing the default back cover that come with the phone?

Now if we could also replace it with the Note"s II screen as well, and may be also the RAM too.
What about the CPU may be that can be changed as well.
Now come to think again do you think the Camera.....

Are you able to fit in your galaxy S2 battery into galaxy S3 ?
Should be the same answer my friend.

I guess we all have to wait to see whether we can make any adjustments to help fit the batery of Note2 in Note1, just like it was done for Galaxy S2's battery fitting in Galaxy Note. Or just to see how we cant do it

Are all Galaxy S3 batteries the same??

This may be a dumb question, but are all Galaxy S3 batteries the same? I want to buy an external battery charger for a spare battery, but the guy selling it says he only knows that it works with the i9300 and i747. I'm pretty sure that it should work with the Verizon version too, though.

well it sounds like it is a 2100mAh battery so should be the same

Yes they are the same dimensions if that is what you are asking, the manufacturing process isn't perfect so, actual usage may very. But nothing erratic

Find a friend that owns an S2, and borrow her/his battery for awhile.
Or, go to the Accessories forum; there's a thread there discussing third-party batteries.
-- xda app / Pristine NoMod CM9b4 / CastagnaIT kernel / GT-I8150 --

I (obviously) own the W. My wife owns the S2. The batteries for both phones are identical in size and working voltage. The mAh figure for the S2s battery is obviously higher. There IS an extra contact on the S2 battery though....haven't discovered what that's for. So while the batteries look VERY similar, I wouldn't risk it...

[Q] Note 2 N7105 battery voltage and back cover

Does any one know is the back covers of N7100 and N7105 are same or not, i mean will it fit on each other?
Also, one major thing i noticed was that the Original battery that comes with both these phones states as 3.8v, but on ebay the higher capacity batteries (like 6500mAh) has 3.7v written on them. But they still say it's compatible with both these phones. And some buyers even left positive feed backs about how good the battery is. If the Voltages are not the same shouldn't it cause problems?
I was planning on buying one of those higher capacity batteries for the N7105 until i noticed that voltage difference.
Oh and one more thing, does the battery on both these phones work on each other?

Look on eBay you will see original back covers fit both.
Batteries are same.
Voltage changes as battery drains its not a set thing, look at your charger it will most likely say 5 volts .... when you charge a 3.7/8 v lithium cell it should be ideally charged to 4.2v it complicated if you aren't into electronics.
Basically don't take any notice of 3.7 or 3.8 .. it will be correct.

More than likely. Just check ebay for whichever battery you have in mind.

In ebay for every high capacity battary (5000mAh, 5200Mah, 6500mAh, 7000mAh, ...) they give a free modified back cover with it.
But after reading many reviews and googling, the best battery for your Note 2 is currently ZeroLemon (9300mAh). The protective cover which comes with this battery is pretty sweet. And your fone can last 3 days + without recharging.

[Q] Replacement Batteries

This will be a quick one.
My battery is starting to be a bit rubbish, so I am looking at getting a new, higher powered one.
I have found these on ebay that look ok, but I wanted to throw it out to u guys to see if any of u have bought them.....

I don't want to go for one of those super high power, double size batteries, cos I like the fact I have a slim phone.
I've had many bricks in the past and I do not want to turn my nice slim S3 into an old Nokia size brick, lolz.

I have also been wanting to replace my battery, I just wanted to ask which of the original battery is better i have seen :
cell made in Japan assembled in China
cell made in Korea assembled in Vietnam
cell made in Korea assembled in china
Made in China
Made in Korea
Im sure there are others. I would guess anything made and assembled at same plant would be best, please correct me if im wrong.

You get what you pay for, I pay for a warranty I can trust as cheap batteries are too dangerous.
There's also a specific section for accessories.

I get that, totally, and I have been looking at batteries, not their prices, if u know what I mean.
Jut wondering if anyone has had any dealings with these batteries.
Also, I know there is a accessories sections, but this was a question, so I asked it in the Q&A section.

I have only ever used Anchor battery and found them faultless .
Their was a post in Accessories at one time .

Anchor or Anker? I also use Anker, just had a problem with my set of year old ones starting to swell -they replaced them both without quibble.

I looked on their site and only found a 2200mAh battery, the bigger ones are double sized with the retrofit back plate.
Stock battery is only 2100mAh, so the Anker one isn't that much better =/

If the battery fits inside the standard back plate then it is the same capacity (or even less) as the standard battery, it's physically impossible for it to be any greater. Any advert saying a higher capacity for the same size is lying, so avoid.
Main point about the Anker is having two batteries, so you charge outside the phone and always have a fully charged spare to hand.

I'm not going to question ur knowledge about this, but how can u have different mAh "AA" batteries, that are all the same size in that case??
I don't want to have to carry around a second battery with me all the time, this is why I was looking at different bigger capacity batteries =/

You can buy AA batteries in many different forms, alkaline, NiCad, Li-ion etc. Each has a different power density, with Li-ion being the highest. Standard S3 batteries are already the highest density so can't be bettered, if it were that easy then Samsung would have already done it.
The only way to get more capacity is to increase the physical dimensions, don't take my word for it try Wikipedia.

S4's battery isn't much bigger, but capacity is much higher.
Personally I carry two slim zerolemons charged at 40% with me all the time.

me and wife have zerolemon 2300 in our gs3's, fit under original back door and they come with 180day warranty. only downside is no NFC. But to me its the Best 20 buck investment ive made as far as accessories lol.

I've found the zerolemon 2300mAh batteries on eBay, HERE and I have also done some web searches about them, they look pretty good and I haven't found any bad reviews. 200mAh bigger than stock, and tested to be that capacity too, so must be true. I'm thinking of going for these, will just have to get a US to UK plug adaptor to go with the charger, lol.

? No, you weren't at all rude -I wouldn't suggest anyone accept 'internet advise' without cross checking it against something else.
The batteries you've chosen have a modest claim for capacity so are probably genuine. Only drawbacks are the limited warranty and return postage, if ever required. The desktop battery charger I have looks identical, plugs into a standard micro usb charger so you might not need an adaptor.

Has anyone ever tried the momax battery ?
