I do this with my phone. I have around 4 batteries and I have battery only charger. So I just replace the batteries when it runs out. Can I do the same?

lol no !
tablets do not have easily removable batteries but you get 10 hours of use from a single complete charge on the 10.1

Oh no. That wont fit my lifestyle. I like to be always online. It is so much fun and comforting to have fresh new set of full bar without tying the phone to the charger.

Hey guys I'm getting my new 2000mah battery tomorrow and I want to know some precautions. OK first - when I get it should I put it in the phone and use my phone until it drops to one percent and then recharge fully to 100? Or, should I charge the battery immediately after I get it (assuming it will be at like 50%). Thanks all

After 50% charge it over night (mobile off) . Use it till 50%, charge it over night (mobile off). Repeat it one more time. Than you can use it as usual.
That's how I do it. Read some technical information to know why.

Just wondering, how much did you pay for the battery?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Plug in battery, charge, use phone.
Profit.?
Modern batteries don't need any fancy charging regime. Just use it and charge it as you see fit. It will perform better once it's been used for a couple of weeks and had a few good full charges, but it is not required.
How much is this battery? And how many hours more do you get with it?
Bought it for like 40 bucks from Expansys and it will be here in 13 days lol. Also thanks for tips

Any particular day of the week you have to perform this bizarre charging ritual ? Do i need a special hat ? maybe sacrifice a goat ?
For those that are always looking for more battery life and do not mind carrying a extra piece of hardware. I have recently purchased the Anker2 external battery found at this link: http://www.amazon.com/8400mAh-Exter...PRQ4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1328040410&sr=8-2
This lasted me on a 12 hour+ trip with juice to spare. its relatively small and can fit in a pocket of small bag. Just putting it out there for the community as an option.
Great Recommendation
This definitely is a great recommendation. I bought it last week and have been using it. Love the battery charger. Better investment than spare batteries out there.
Thanks for the heads up!
Thought it's great for my upcoming trip! Having to carry the cable around is a bummer, but better than constantly opening the battery door I guess!
Has anyone here bought the 2000mAh Extended batteries?
How long do they run for??

I got the cable that retracts to save space. The battery itself is not that big.

I use something like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B002SXCFTQ/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/177-7385370-1542620
Or just use your charging cable that comes with the phone. The one I have was for ease of travel.

If this hasn't happened to you yet., and it's going to happen to you later. You have been messing with your phone without looking at your battery levels and mid rom flash you are out of juice, your phone won't charge. The charger appears to be working but the phone just won't charge.
I used to have a droid x and you have to use a special tool by Motorola to change the os on it. It requires you to be plugged in but sometimes won't charge your phone. Mid update my phone ran out of juice, I had a spare battery but the phone wouldn't turn on or charge. After many desperate appempts I found a fairly easy solution.
The trick is you find any usb cable you don't want.. You strip the end with the adapted part of the usb.. You cut the green and yellow wires.. You put the black wire on the negative terminals and the red wire on the positive terminals
This should give your battery enough energy to start itself up if you hold the wire on the terminals for a minute.. Although I'm not sure if this damages the battery.. I would only use this in case of an emergency,

Or you could get a cheap $3 wall charger from amazon or ebay (the type that holds the battery not the cable).
Did the same with my droid 2 global

Or use Amon Ra recovery... it will actually charge a fully dead battery.
Clockwork MOD has issues charging a completely dead battery.
This is for a situation where you need it charged at that moment.. Not wait 1 week for a charger.. Most people know about the chargers, but shipping is nothing near instant

yep, have 8 extended batteries right now. Don't think I'm running out of juice!
What if you could wire the batteries together is some way to make a 1 week shoe box sized battery. That would be worth buying... If you wanted to carry it around
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
They already make these "brick" charging devices. Not a shoe box, just a large battery that can charge your phone multiple times before it needs to be recharged. Pretty sure I have seen a 8000mah and higher.

If I didn't have an extended battery then i would have two stock ones. Keep one charged and the other in the phone.
Hi. Could someone tell me if it's normal for my s3 to not charge while playing games or movies etc when it's plugged in? Thanks.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium
Get a battery app such as better battery stats. I bet it is charging, but since playing a game or a movie will drain your battery...
Do like I did a while back, spent 22 bucks on a QCell 4200mah extended battery.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Depends. Its certainly not abnormal. Depends how much power is being used. Games more so.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 4
If i get this right the games or movies are draining the battery faster than it can charge. And considering how long it takes to charge thats sounds right. I looked at a few of the extended battery packs. Saw one on ebay 20,000 mah for $25. Quick question wont they be the same as a charger being plugged in and still charge at the same slow rate or are they actually an extension to the battery? Sry for the noob questions first phone ive owned that the battery didnt last a few days.

I'm not even sure what normal is anymore.
Use this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free
To check your maximum when charging. It should be 1000 (or 999) when on AC, 475 on USB 2 and 900 on USB 3.
This might not work with your model S3, I don't know it, you're in the wrong forum
Nope your right it doesnt work. Thanks for your help. Gonna go look for the right forum

So far so good! Previously on my stock battery I used to get 7 hours max on heavy use ..running aokp 4.4.2 rom on HSDPA+ connection ..now I surpassed 7 hours and still 80%!
The only downside so far that it takes lots of time to recharge (unless you put the capacity in consideration )

You bet and you can always charge it back up if it gets around 50% and at least that way it will not take so long to charge.

Sure. i will find it from amazon. but we need brand name
The brand name is meaningless since it's a Chinese aftermarket battery, they all probably come out of the same back garden factory in Shenzen. Just pick the cheapest one you can find.

Thanks for the info
in really is about 5000mah i think..... maybe initially was better, after 3 montsh of use life decreased a little.
it is a good battery better than original. but it is 2 battery IN PARALLEL.
1 battery chinese WILL NEVER BE 3200mah like original. so it it is 2500 real....................... 2500 x 2 = 5000 mah about. a good amount, not the promised 7800.
