search is turning up cheap batteries and slim batteries are turning up with no covers.. grrrr..
right now i've got the extended battery on and that thing is a huge brick.. where can i buy the original battery with the original cover.. i lost mine when i accidentally threw it up away along with old motorola housings and what not..
slim batteries doesnt come with covers. Only the extended batteries cause normal covers wouldnt fit them. You can get housings from brando.

Did you bother to check www.htc.com?
i did... it's powered by "letstalk.com" they carry a lot of BT stuff, just no cover or battery.. i'll probably bite it and just get the battery from an att store.
Anone know where I can buy a spare one ?
(or just get the rubber plug that covers the external aerial ocket - I lost mine ....
ebay is always good
just have a look at ebay for old and not working mobiles.(price unknown)
or buy a new "power akku" most of the time they will send a special back wwith a more powerful battery.(14€+shipping)
but you have also to look at other phones like yous. dopod, qtek,htc,xda,mda...blabla
This is the stuff I have bought for my G1.
I will post pics, to try and help anyone trying to make a decision on what to buy.
(alot of credit goes to ITSMEMORPHIUOS on youtube, He reviews iphone stuff. and through his reviews I got the confidence to buy half this stuff)
1) MOSHI case (ipouch=for iphone)= fits G1 perfect: excellent "everyday" case. Has special cloth sewn on inside that really cleans your G1. www.moshimonde.com (f**K IPHONE, had to get that out of my system). Washable, extra pocket for headphones. comes with really nice lanyard (to whip your kids with). SEVERAL LAYERS OF VERY THIN FABRIC NOT BULKY AT ALL.
2) niteize s-biner, size #1= to hang on moshi case
http://www.niteize.com/productdetail.php?category_id=29&product_id=152
3) SENA case= ULTRA slim case=, executive case REMOVED!!! NO NEED FOR COMMENTS LIKE THAT/THIS!!!!. www.senacases.com
4) SEIDIO retractable USB cable= it's ok, kind of short only 2'. really handy to carry though.
5) Cellet retractable wall charger.= travel charger, (*NOT TO SURE ABOUT THIS ONE, ONLY 500mA). BUT the car charger looks like a excellent product (but at the same time looks like a d*ck and balls????). (wish I had a car)
6) ZAGG invisible shield. OK ready, great protection, very UGLY look. DO NOT USE THE SCREEN PIECE.
---USE www.powersupportusa.com CRYSTAL FILM instead, can't even tell something is on the screen.
WHY: the Zagg gives orange peel affect (distorts image), Also you can see adhesive acts like little prisms and distorts image.
---Also I covered my wife's phone with Zagg completely and it totally takes away from the phone (women!!!).
--------SO on my phone I just used two small stripps on where the phone makes contact with a surface. much better look.
TIP: buy 70% isopropyl Rubbing alcohol from local pharmacy( will cost $1-$2 for huge bottle), same stuff that is in expensive computer screen wipes. But find good lint free cloth.
spray phone:
1) to clean
2) can apply crystal film when wet with alcohol
This is not a purchase but a great tip:
7) Piece of leather cut 4" x 6" ( and old leather jacket will do) great place to rest your phone while charging.
8) Turbo Charger= on the go, emergeny charger(uses AA)
9) AMZER 82000= cradle. ( got extra battery from t-mobile for free) still waiting for it to arrive in mail.

10) sandisk 16 GB microsdhc = must have= works.
If you have any questions about these items, let me know, hopefully it will help you make your decision.

A bit G1 obsessive if you ask me, but I can see y, I love my phone too. But I dont think all the cases/pouches r necessary.
I didnt like the bulk of the pouch it came with. so I got the sena case, but
the sena case is very slim line and doesn't cover the phone 100% and you have to break it in to use it.
So then I ended up with the moshi pouch (black pouch), which is good to just throw around, phone slides in and out of it with ease. (the gay pink or peptol bismol one is my wife's).
I'm getting the same cradle. Do you know if the phone fits in it without removing the USb cover?
you don't have to take off the little cover there is little space for the little cover to sit within
Great, thats what I was worried about.
For the cradle can you charge the G1 and the spare battery at the same time? I was just wondering because I bought a crappy dock a while back and I could only charge the battery with the dock and had to connect a usb cable to charge the phone. Also is it hard to put the G1 in the dock or is it pretty easy. Thanks for the info man
AMZER 82000= cradle

I got mine off of ebay, from Hong Kong, so I did not have the pleasure of unboxing ( came in Manila Envelope). But saved a couple of bucks.
NO IT IS NOT EASY TO PUT PHONE IN AND OUT. if you plan on using phone alot it is not easy. but if phone just sits in one place and you have bluetooth headset then it's OK. There is nothing wrong with cradle, The problem comes in with the little door has to be opened, then lowering the phone onto little usb connector. It's great for people who have there own desk at the office.
Comes with:
1) cadle: nice build quality (for made in china cradle),has charger port, usb port and 3.5mm stereo out. fingerprint and dust magnet. but I'm happy with product.
Blue and red led indicator on front of cradle, very bright. Might have to cover at night.
BLUE: glows when charger is plugged in. even if there is no phone or battery in charger.
RED: glows when battery is charging.
2) wall charger: 1.5 AMPS, nice can charge battery and phone at same time.
3) usb cable.
more pics of cradle.............
Where did you get that cradle?? OMG, I was just tell ing my friend I needed a cradle that had a charge port AND an audio out port. That's so freaky.
Doesn't look nearly as nice as yours, but all I really want is to be able to put in in the cradle on my dresser and plug my speakers into it. WOuld this work?

got cradle off of ebay. came from hong kong.
omg, love the cradle! I wish we had bluetooth stereo headphones capabiliy (A2D2). this would be perfect for that. I could just use it to charge my spare battery while streaming music or just get the giant 2400 mAh battery. What do you guys think?
How well does the Crystal Film screen shield fit on the g1, since it's made for the iPhone? My stock screen is getting really scratched up and I desperately need a new one, and you seem to have done your research
Also, I have been thinking about buying the cradle as well, and I have an extended battery that I use as my backup, and since the g1 won't fit on the charger with the extended battery on, I'd like to be able to place it on the extra charger, I just wanted to make sure it'd fit
I too am loving my cradle. Also wishing for Bluetooth Stereo. We'll see what this month brings I guess.
CRYSTAL FILM: was from powersupportusa.com But I don't see it on their website anymore.
It has an exact fit and is very smooth, people can't even tell i have a film on.
CRADLE: yes the extended battery fits in the back part of the cradle. the only thing is you cant close the back cover of the cradle.
You can put the phone and the extended battery (in the back part of the cradle with the cover door open) in at the same time.
Thats one spoiled-lucky G1 hahaha.
can someone post a working link to one of those cradles for me.. thanx a lot

WE have this battery with ergonimic back for the INTERNATIONAL note and this
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hyperion-Sa...Accessories&hash=item3f15dd78bc#ht_500wt_1413
TPU case for the INTERNATIONAL model to cover the above INTERNATIONAL battery. I dont care about NFC (no clue what it even is!) so my question is:
a) will this case, battery and back cover fit the ATT note?
b) If it does, will all the holes be in the same place? (charging hole, SPen hole and volume/power buttons)
c) if the back case for the phone itself doesn't snap properly, will the case be enough to hold it all on?
I really need an extended battery, but I hate that there are never cases to fit the phones with the extended battery, if all this will fit, it seems too good to be true and this would be PERFECT. Like I said, that NFC (not even sure if that's the right word) doesn't matter to me, I just want more juice and a case all at the same time! LOL!

The cover fits if you take a knife and shave off some of the pastic tabs on the hyperion cover. I did it, and it fit just fine with a little bit of effort. All the holes etc lined up properly. The only difference between the two models physically is the location of the plastic tabs that snap the back into place.
That said, the hyperion battery is junk, I pulled the sticker off of it and it contained two 1500mah batteries underneath. 3000mah total, not even close to the advertised 5000mah. Buyer beware.
I can't find which case I should buy for my phone when using the wireless charging back cover. Does anyone have any good recommendations?
I thought I would go ahead and answer my own question. For those who are interested in having some kind of case with the Galaxy Alpha and who also want the wireless charging backplate, I am here to confirm that the Spigen Neo Hybrid case for the Galaxy Alpha does fit with the official Samsung backplace and it does charge. The fit is snug however, the lip does cover it as if there was no extra thickness. I have three other covers from Korea and they all aren't able to cover the phone with the wireless charging backplate. I am glad that it works.
For those who never used this brand of cases, make sure to leave on the plastic ring part and don't try to do it in two stages. I thought I had to put the rubber part on and then the ring, however, if you do that, you will most likely break the ring. Instead, just put the phone in the case all at once.
will the official extended battery work with this ?
No, I don't think so. The extended battery requires a special modified case because the battery is too fat and the official charger plate requires the regular battery, as there is no room for a bigger battery. However, in this case, I would recommend getting one of those internal pieces that you can put between the battery and the cover and attach it to the right spot, like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Alpha-SlimPWRcard-Receiver-Samsung-integrated/dp/B00QMIM6EM
I have never used it, but I assume it would work. The only reason why it might not is if it isn't long enough to go over the bigger battery, but I'd say it is worth a try. Qi wireless charging is fantastic! I am going to build one into a desk I bought at the thrift store.
