Hello! I have problem with my phone. When battery is on ~ 50% it is turning off. What i can do to stop it? Sorry for my bad english...
You should let us know more about your setup, like which ROM you are using, what kind of tweaks / scripts you have.
Check if you have some kind of software etc. with which you can setup a battery level threshold that makes the phone shutdown when crossed. I think I saw some Roms with that kind of setting but I maybe wrong.
The worst case is unfortunately that your battery is nearing its end of lifetime. What you describe is pointing to that possibility. How old is your battery? These batteries usually have 1000 charge/discharge cycles as their lifetime.
Note: there are so many threads about battery issues. Maybe the moderators can combine them and make it a sticky. So people will know where yo go....

I just looked other threats and then I check my battery. My battery was little bit bloated. So thanks for helping...
Maybe someone can help me choose good battery what will work longer...
Well you can buy an original samsung battery if you can. Because there are some cheap knock offs and it is very difficult to tell whether they are as good as they say they are. However, there is one battery ( extended 2900 mAh) in the accessories section that is tested by many here and I heard good things about and almost doubles the usage time.
But it comes with its own battery door as it adds some bulge. Here you can find some info in this thread
Also you can check the discussion here

And if you're lucky, it'll actually be as good as the stock battery. Look around the net for tests. Most 3rd party batteries are sh*t.
Honestly, I wouldn't trust a third party battery that claims to be much better. You're far better off (and less likely to do damage) just finding some battery saving techniques.
I believe that at some point you should be able to get OFFICIAL extended battery cases for the SGS II, however. This would be a safer and more sensible alternative. See here.

Thanks, I was aware that those batteries were sh*t, but just wanted to check if someone had any experience with them.
Anyway, I'll stick with original one.
Thanks once more...

Hi,
I bought one on ebay, and it was s..t
It claim to be a 1800 mA but in fact it was a 1350 mA (written under the sticker)
The seller told me it was a mistake from his supplier...
If a Chinese extended battery swells a little in the middle but works fine should I be considered about the battery burning up
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
If a battery is swelling, you should be very concerned, and stop using it immediately. It could explode at any time and the acid inside could seriously burn you or others.
K thanks
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Even if it doesn't explode, it could crack and cook your phone. Dispose asap!

The best one would probably be a stock one made by htc.
I used a generic branded 3500mAh battery bought on Amazon.com from a seller called Quickshippers. It works out wonderful and is only a fraction of the cost of the expensive Seidio ones.
The only reason I went back to stock is because I'm getting fantastic battery life with evodeck. And I'm usually just plugged in and charging while at work. I missed the sheer thinness of the stock battery.
How long does a extended battery take to fully charge
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
3500 BATTERY takes about 6 to 8 hours to charge. But if u dont use an SBC kernel, it will never fully charge.
I am trying this new kernel release from HTC now, and it looks promising, but only on second day. Too early to see if it actually fully charges 3500s

My battery is 4000 mV at 90% I just callibrated and been running chop suey for a while

did I help? hit that lil thanks button then
Seidio Slim
The Seidio Slim battery is slightly better according to some reviews I have read, but then again I don't believe I have read enough of them to lead me to believe that is better than just buying the Stock from HTC which is more durable. Just a thought not a proven fact.
Am I the only person who has thought of this? I have multiple batteries and it kinda gets old having to reboot every time I need to switch batteries, so I thought that maybe there was a way to mod 2 of them together in order to get longer battery life.

Good idea!
You'd have to figure out which terminals on the battery are Positive/Negative/Temperature. Then you want to connect the batteries in Parallel, (Positive to Positive, Negative to Negative) don't mess with the temperature terminal. Check the volts before and after! They should be the same!
I did a Google search in hopes someone else did this with a cellphone, but didn't find anything. So here is a Instructables about creating a external battery source. It has good information about what you want to do.

Happy Mod-ing!
That is already what most of the "extended" batteries sold are and why they are twice the thickness. Hong Kong thought of it awhile ago.

I just keep an extended battery case with 2 normal batteries under it. But yes, good idea
sent from my always aosp epic
Perhaps take the housing of one of them cheap extended batteries and replace the 2 cells with 2 oem 1800mah samsung cells from the new epic.

What would be interesting would be to mod the software rules to allow a hot swap of batteries if plugged in... just my $.02

Is the 2000 mah battery good for gaming or its a better option the power Pack?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Battery
The thing is the powerpack was a huge problem for me, i would have to charge the devices seperately, get annoyed by the beepin of full battery (basically when you fone goes from 100% to 99% the powerpack will start chargeing, then it will stop, and then start again when you reach 99%). I also noticed a very bad heating problem with the phone when i used the powerpack
In my opinion get the 2000 mAH battery, but that again will only give you 1~2 hours more battery (again that depends on yout use)
hope that helps
Thanks! I went for the power Pack because the battery said it was for the I9100 and also said that it wouldn't work on the GT I9100 so... Let's see how it goes. Also I don't want the phone plugged to the power Pack always cause I don't like cases... I just want it for when I really need it! But a part of me still wants that battery but what if I buy it and doesn't work... =/

I'm going to buy a new battery for my S3. I have to decide between Polarcell with 2400mAh and the bigger original Samsung 3000mAh kit. Has someone experiences over a few of months with this batteries ? If they are new both seem to be very good, the Polarcell really has it's capacity and the Samsung one of course, too.
This is very interesting topic. Need to follow.

Yes, what an unique and worthwhile topic.
There are like 3 other giant threads where you could find this information, 1 that's stickied.

But I'm from germany and I dont want to import a battery, so I asked about the original 3000mAh and the Polarcell. And in fact in most of the battery threads there are only sbort term experiences.
I've been using the Samsung 3000 mah battery since July with no issues. The battery makes the phone a little thicker, but it's not too bad. It's really nice to have the peace of mind from the extra power in the battery.
