anyone know if they make extended battery cases (similar to the mophi juice packs) for the xperia ion? my wife recently got the phone, we have it tuned now that the battery lasts longer for her, but she was asking about battery cases. i did some google searching, but didnt see anything for it, didnt know if someone on here would know.
thanks
Notion yet I'm working I'm making one myself will start posting progress son will make for others if interest and time and money line up right

don't expect it soon. our charging port is covered and right next to the micro hdmi out. i did notice that phones with those ports away from each other and are flush on the edge of the phone without being covered do have some sort of battery case.

3500mAh battery + cover- looks smoother than Seidio, but also looks like it could be cheaply made.
Check it out.
What do you think? Would you gamble on it? Why or why not?
i took the gamble, i'll let you know how it is in 2-6 business days
$19? Seems cheap...especially for an "extended" battery. Our 1900mAh battery as a replacement costs more than that, haha.
will this still fit in the lapdock?
Would probably fit in the lapdock if you took the back off

fixed for ya
I ordered one from Gorilla Gadgets. I can easily use the phone HEAVILY (games, calls, texting, facebook, music, bluetooth always on) from 630am to 10pm without charging or it dying.
Just took the risk as well. Will report back on how it does. 2-6 business days!
Keep us posted guys. My gf is picking up the atrix so this would be a good accessory to pick up

Im interested in seeing how this fits. Also how the battery life is with setcpu disabled under heavy use

I hope it's good but odds are it's crap like every other aftermarket battery.

They took forever to ship it, but it's shipping now. Hope it gets here soon!
Well, came home to the package, and it does NOT fit in my phone. I don't know what else to do.

Geez man that really sucks. Thanks for letting us know tho.
I think I might not be trying hard enough to make it fit, but it just seems like it doesn't want to go in.
Hello, everyone. I received this battery a couple days ago. The battery doesn't just slip right in, you have to push really hard. Overall, the extra sign is not as bad as i thought. It actually blend in with the phone. I was using it heavily for 14 hours straight, when the phone said i have 1% left. I thought that the phone would shut off but it keep on going for another 3 hours. It probably can go on but im afraid it might ran out while im on the road. I recharge it and will continue to monitor it. The only problem i see is the battery indicator is not accurate. I hope that it will calibrate itself in a few more power cycle.
You had to push hard? I pushed super hard and I was afraid of breaking the phone. I'll give it another shot though!

Yes, put the battery conductor side down first and push the rest of it down. It will work.
Sorry. I feel like an idiot for not being able to push a battery in. But when you put it in conductor side first, did the back of yours get stuck on the fingerprint scanner part?
I feel like I'm going to break the device if I push any harder.

No, mines isn't stuck on the fingerprint part. I hope we got the same battery. I got mine from the link on the first page of this post.
My girlfriend has a Samsung Infuse 4G. She has an external battery charger and a second battery for swapping in the middle of the day. She managed to get the extra battery for about $30 through AT&T.
I just got my T-mobile SGS2 and I'm trying to get a second battery from tmobile, but as of yesterday they do not carry extra batteries for it yet, either in store or by phone.
I am wondering if her battery will work in my phone. She could order me one right now if they are compatible. It would actually make our lives a bit easier if we had interchangeable batteries.
I took a picture of them side by side. My battery is on the left, hers on the right. the only difference appears to be that mine says 6.85Wh and hers says 6.48Wh. Also mine mentions NFC right on the battery.
anyone know what Wh means? anyone know if these batteries are interchangeable? could I damage my phone if I put her battery in it, or vice versa?
if you use the other battery, you will lose the NFC capabilities
as it's build into the battery
Which really doesn't seem to be an issue since NFC isn't really in use by anyone right now.... So the battery should work? I'd love to find another battery that fits inside the stock case and extends the life of the phone.
Did it work? Update?

exactly my thoughts!!!!!
there are cautious people in this world (just like those drivers in the highway going at very slow speed)
if i was a newbie or not very well tech inclined, i would be afraid to burn my $600 phone by putting in the wrong battery
that's the most logical reason why

so he's asking people to burn their phone? LOL
no, I'm not asking anybody else to try it. im asking you guys if there's any chance of damaging the phone if I try it.
I don't know what Wh means on the battery. Does anyone here?
it's safe to do it, in case you didn't quite get the hint on my original reply
just take it out if you think that thing is burning up...
there doesn't seem any point in trying the swap now. Tmobile is offering a spare battery and battery docking station with external battery charger on their website for $50. It was just recently added to the website.
besides, losing NFC might not be a big deal at the moment, but down the road it could lead to not having your credit card available when you need it, based on the battery you grabbed that day.
often those external chargers go for $5-$10 on ebay alone. so getting the spare battery, another wall charger, and a nice docking station is worth the $50 to me.
Thursday i bought a 3800mAh extended battery from ebay with sprint in the title and also on the battery itself from the pictures i saw. I looked in the description and it also said verizon in it and was a tad confused as to will it fit. For $15 i figured i might as well try it out and see but it gets here monday. I just wanted to know if anyone knows if it will fit on my sprint galaxy nexus properly? or maybe i will have to make some alterations as long as it works? link for it is: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370639867086
Cant say for sure but the teeth that hold it in place are supposedly in different places.
I read that one or two may be out of place but all of them?

Even one or two would ruin how it's seated on the phone.
The guys in the accessories section probably have a better idea of it.

Well the battery came today and had 53 percent left on it. Currently im doing the initial first full drain and so far im already very very impressed! I can already see an increase in battery life. The door fits perfectly on both of the batteries(I ordered two of em) with no problems what so ever. Great so far. No problems with it snapping on at all
Okay im slightly confused, should i drain the battery first or charge it fully overnight?
Hey guys so i got two 1900 mah batteries for my htc sensation about three months back. The battery life i get is a lot better than the stock one, but since i got one more extra battery left i dont know what to do with it. i was thinking of cutting a microusb cable up and connecting that extra battery with my phone by using a bigger case. What do you guys think ? Will it work or has anyone done some thing like this before ?? THANKS and im sorry if im posting this in the wrong section, i just joined.

the battery itself is the same as the original battery but i got 2 of them so i thought of trying to hook it up like a battery case . do you guys know a way to get it to work
Hey everyone,
So I know there are a couple other reviews for this case but that's ok. I have been using mine for a bit now and last night after a lot of real life usage have put together a review. See how it held up in real life conditions!!! Feel free to ask any questions if you have any!!!
I know you weren't fussy about discussing the ZeroLemon in your other thread, but thought it may be better not to clutter that one up too much, so I replied here
markbencze said:
Nice. I'm still using mine. One thing I forgot to mention in the video that took me a bit to figure out was that when your phone battery is at 100% the battery case will turn off after a bit. It's not a bug though it's a feature. I mean it kinda makes sense right. Why waste power if it's at 100%. So when I'd look at my phone at times and see it's not charging and went down to like 96 or 97 I'd power the case back on and shortly thereafter it would go back up. Pretty clever feature actually.

Ah, ok. This will be my first ever extended battery attachment on any device so this will be interesting
Will the ZeroLemon turn on and start charging at "X%" of phone battery left, or do you manually turn the Zero on?

You have to manually turn it on. That would be pretty cool if it were that smart but it's not.
So I've been using my ZeroLemon since last Saturday now. While I enjoy the peace of mind of having more power available if needed, I'm not quite sure I need it to be honest I can get through the day just fine with the phone's built in battery.
Also, not quite sure I like the look of the carbon fiber appearance, but it's growing on me.
I always, and have to, use a belt clip/holster for my devices. And as such, there is no such thing available for the LG G7 with the Zero. So, I modified my existing belt clip/holster to fit it (heat guns are wonderful items )
Anyway, just my experience and not sure if I'll continue to use it, or toss it in the drawer for possible future use

I don't see how such a thing can be considered a case replacement to be taken with you to work, school or the coffee shop.
I see such a device as being for when you will be gone from civilization (Read: USB plugs) for a few days. I mean you can charge these phones with a laptop or any USB station in a lot of places, without needing the charger with you.

True, I'll go with you on that.
I suppose there are folks who don't want to worry about their battery dying during heavy usage and having to carry a charging cable and a means of charging it.
And then there are other folks like me who thought it looked pretty neat and wanted to try it
Hey thanks for the review. I've loved Zerolemon. Bought their extended life batteries for both my Note 3 and Galaxy S 3. Man those things were beastly!
Question, when it's charging on the phone how does that effect quick charge? Does it disable it until the case gets full then let it quick charge after the case is at 100%?
Random comment of the day from me listening to your voice made me laugh a little bit, not in a bad way of course, I knew from the long O's that you were either in the northern parts of the US or Canada. I've got family in Minnesota and Wisconsin and had a few online XBL friends from Canada. It's really funny when I start to combine my familys' Southern and Northern accent that I start picking up both. ADHD for the win!
Delete, I found a home for it
