Nop. That one is for England the European are round....
Yup. Need the two prong version.
You can buy a US to EU converter, which would work,but I was hoping to find the attachment that goes with the stock AC adapter to keep the bulk down.
Maybe this one

You don't need a special power adaptor for a gtab. Unless you are wedded to the one that came in the box for some reason?
What you need is a 2amp adaptor with a 4mm x 1.7mm positive center plug.
All the recent LG portable DVD players use this type of adaptor. There are plenty of suppliers on fleabay to choose from. Just look for the LG adaptors not gtab adaptors if you are outside the US.
This works for car power supplies too.

Steve can probably order you one at ElectronicCrap, try MeriMobiles, I can probably get it through my supplier too, if your willing to wait a week.
You can order one in tinydeal, search for CAD-7594.
I used a blackberry one. It doesn't quite lock in but it fits andworks
Spent the last 2 hours reading through all the posts and searching Google in regards to finding an extended battery, 1800mah or 2000mah that fits with the stock cover and works with our NFC chip.
All the posts on here are a few weeks to a few months old, so I was wondering if anyone has found the hidden gem? I know about the Korean version with the case mod, but I enjoy the OEM case with the "Galaxy S II" logo on the back. But if push comes to shove and there are no other options, I will go with the Korean one.
So, anyone want to help out?
Korean one is your best bet as I have looked at all the aftermarket extended batteries which do not have NFC in them.
NFC is in the battery not the phone.
But I am also interested in a good, confirmed, extended battery that will fit like stock.

The NFC chip is in the phone and is allowed to be used by a "NFC ready" battery.

I bought the 2000mah euro version for its cover and i bought the 2000 mah Korean version for the battery. Waiting for them 2 arrive. Then i need 2 sell the euro version battery.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
So, can the 2000mah Korean version cover be dremeled down to snap onto the i777 properly?
I'm a little confused, why not get the battery and use the stock cover?

Probably can but i don't have a dremel, that's why i bought the euro version 2000mah kit, it supposedly snaps right on.

Got the Korean version, dremeled the Korean cover to fit on, and then went ahead and bought a SGP Linear case. Looks amazing.

Awesome!
1. Can I get a link to your seller? I have found that a lot of them can't confirm their batteries have NFC capabilities (I'm assuming yours did).
2. How did the case fit after modding?
3. With the sgp case, do you just have to leave off the battery cover section so that it ends up being something like a bumper?
Thanks!

Yes they did, the case fit pretty well - as if it came factory, and nope, the case fits over the battery and the battery cover.
I will post some pictures and maybe a little tutorial and all that when I get home next weekend.
I bought it from here though.

i think the model # from the link is incorrect. "...STD" version is the international non-nfc version. the korean (nfc) is either "...BSG" or "...BEG".

Might be the page which is incorrect, because my battery model number is: EB-K1A2EBSG.
On the site it also says "The EB-K1A2EBSG is the Korean version of the EB-K1A2EBEGSTD. The battery is an NFC version and will fit any Samsung Galaxy S2. However, the back plate is incompatible, and only fits the Korean Galaxy S 2."
Thanks for the link! I'm assuming the site's reputable right? Mind if I ask what shipping method you chose and how long it took? Thanks for all your help!
(P.S. Saw you were from California, my wife and I are heading to wedding in LA. Hoping for nice weather!)

Pretty reputable, it's a French company and being from France I trusted it. I know my cousin who lives in France uses it a lot.
I used standard international shipping and it took about 8 days from being marked as "shipped" to arrive to me in California.
Weather has been pretty nice, not that much rain, spent a few days in LA with my family who lives there, but I'm in France now visiting the other side of my family!
So wait, the battery COVER* you purchased off of ExportPrive didn't need any sort of modification to snap into an i777? I'm a little confused! haha. I'm excited to pick one up! Also by 'Euro' version of SGSII, do you mean the standard/stock i9100 cover? I can just pick up a nice looking aftermarket i9100 case and it'll accommodate the larger battery? Thanks again.
From what I could find it doesn't.. But just wanted to get a clear answer.
This is using the at&t one (not the mini)

Well, that was pretty clear
I was hoping to discover another feature I did not care about when buying the phone.
Is there any method to add this capability without hacking the thing open?

Get a mophie or some other wireless charging/extra battery case for it.. it'll obviously definitely add to the size/weight of the phone tho over a standard case.. I wouldn't get the cheap chinese one's off ebay tho, horrible things that don't last long at all.

I know this is a late post but have you ever used one of the "cheap chinese one's"? I've heard there were pretty good and I haven't heard of any of them not lasting. Just wondering.

Yeah ive tried 2-3 different Chinese ones, although admittingly they were for my iPhone and not the HTC one. They were great for the first month or two and then and then they all started having issues. 1 would fail to charge ever again regardless of charger, another failed to hold a charge for longer than ~4hrs, another would constantly cycle charging on/off while switched on and trying trying to charge the phone. Just had a bad experience overall and waiting a month+ for RMA is a bit much. Much better to get a legit one for these reasons at a place where you can RMA in your own country if you ever need it.

Hey, everyone.
My friend and I unlocked his Note and he switched to T-Mobile. We played around with flashing different radios and ended up with one that gets decent signal, but nothing that's satisfactory. Are there other radios that work on this phone? Can it be any T-Mobile radio?

Charging flex cable
Hello, I purchased a i717 off eBay and my luck i figured out after I got it and had no cell signal accept in a few real good hot spots. I figured out the seller replaced the charging port flex cable... I read that the part numbers matter a lot on this phone andhe don't have the original now.... I am trying to get this figured out it as on the case v0.3 so I'm guessing the one I needed is a rev 3.0 and I can't find it anywhere or a rev 2.0 for that matter... So does anyone have any idea how to tell which one i need and do they actually say rev 2, or just the second numbers are different but it says rev1 in the top line.....I've checked the antenna cable and it charges fine..... Please help........:crying: I sold my iPhone 5 and found this amazing phone that I can't use :crying:

Figures I get 1 reply on my first post and its someone just out to make someone feal bad...have you ever had this issue? I joined this forum looking for help not to be made fun of thanks. if I was unclear I'm sorry let me clarify....
There are 2 sets of numbers on the charging port flex cable.... I find a bunch of rev 1.0 cables with a few having different numbers for the second set of numbers on the cable. I read there are 3 revisions of this cable rev 1.0 rev 2.0 and rev 3.0.... So how can you tell which rev it is will it say rev 2 or 3 in the first set of numbers or is the second number how you tell?
So in short 1. How can you tell which rev the cable is?
2. How can you tell which rev the phone should have if you don't have the original part?
3. Where can you buy th part you need if it's rev 2 or rev 3 ?
If in doubt, buy the latest revision. It should be backwards compatible. To know for sure, contact a samsung service center and ask them.

It was also able to reboot the tamper counter before, will it do so with the s7 ?

i think the one he has is a pre-made one, he bought it like that, I just made one using 3x100kOhms and 1x1kOhm. Didn't worked tho, maybe the usb cord I found collecting dust in the drawer is broken, will try with another cord.
