Will this Qcell extended battery fit i717 Galaxy Note? I searched around and the i717 is the same form factor as the N7000

Make sure you don't care about NFC before ordering 3rd party batteries & covers that are not specific to the i717 - the NFC antenna is affixed to the battery cover in the AT&T GNote.
I have already purchased some spare batteries (not extended) for the international Note, hope they fit my At&t note. I assume they will. Not sure if I'll really need them, since apparently the note will come with a spare battery...

Spare battery? Says who?
Scratch that... I read it somewhere, now I can't find it. :banghead:
Sounds unlikely anyway...

Here is the extended battery by Qcell for our phones:

I took the bait.
For less than 20 bucks I'll bite, just ordered it. I'm not so much concerned with form as I am function. Give it a few days to get here and i'll review it after a few full cycles.

Looks like we both can review it haha.
I just hope this battery is semi decent, 4150 seems reasonable compared to the others who advertise as 5000 and what not.
The cover probably wont fit

I was wondering if anyone knew of a case/battery combo? I know most extended batteries for example a 5000mah battery, which I want, comes with another back panel but I'm actually looking for something to protect my phone. I don't know if I want to risk breaking or damaging my phone for longer battery life. If anyone is having the same problems or knows a solution please comment. Maybe we can solve this issue. Thanks

About the only one I can think of that MAY work is a bumper that would allow you to remove the original back. I don't remember which one it is, but I know one of the aluminum bumpers allows you to remove the backplate still, which I would think would allow clearance for the extended battery possibly.

I have read several reviews of extended batteries for the Note. So putting the tech specs aside, how comfortable is it to carry around the already big Note with an extended battery case? Are there any brands that are better than others in this regard?
I currently carry around an extra battery, but I always forget to charge the extra battery on days when I end up swapping them out. I was thinking about purchasing an extended battery/case, but I don't want to be carrying around a brick either. I spend a lot of time traveling where Iike to have my phone easily accesible in my front pants pocket.

I find pros and cons. The extended battery does make it easier to grip. But of course its harder to put in a pocket.
I use one all the time.

I carry my phone in my front pants pocket without issue. It's s little tight in some jeans with smaller pockets, but overall it works just fine with extended battery. Biggest issue I've had is lack of a case so while I drop it rarely, when I do it comes apart into three pieces(phone, battery, back case)

I think it's fine. Because the phone is already big, the extra "hump" is not too hard to get used to.
I got a metal bumper case to work with the extended battery. I posted a picture in the other thread for 5200mah battery. If you drop it, it will still come apart most of the time.
I did use a cheap TPU case and cut out a hole for the hump and that works out fine as well. This will keep the phone together better if you drop it, but it was a really cheap TPU case, so I ditched it eventually for the bumper, which looked alot slicker.

I just took a look at that thread. I think I might get one to have on extended travel days. It does look kind of goofy IMO, but it will serve a purpose. Thanks for the response.
--- If you are an asshole online, then you ARE an asshole in person ---
Yes... I have grown used to the look, but when I take out my phone in public, people do ask "what the heck is that?"
I don't think it is as ridiculous, but people do. But, it is nice when you are on the road. I lasted almost 3 full days in the mountains with the extended and stock batteries.
I love mine and I also have the case for the Hyperion extended battery for the international note and it fits fine.

yes, no problems with the case for everyday use, however you might find using the phone with one hand isn't as easy anymore.
I consider myself pretty good with one hand on the Note, but the extended battery makes that a real challenge.

I bought the extended battery with hump initially and only used it when I knew I wouldnt be able to have power for awhile. It became more of bulk issue, i ended up just ordering an extra battery and just swap out.

I have one in 24/7. I keep it in my shirt pocket, run a ranch, no extra case/cover. I'm on 4g only, no real internet out here where the bear does his business.
Doesn't fall out, get too wet from sweat, or broken... I'm due an upgrade but waiting on note 3 or price drop on note 2 and an extended battery for it.
if I just used the OEM battery it'd be dead in 3 hours or less since my data is on all the time...

Which battery do you have?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
The tmart <$10 one for i717... I had two because going to 4g only ate my battery and I thought it was just wearing out.
I found it was easier to hold...fit ok in my shirt pocket.
When I syill had satellite internet it lasted all day usually. But I think I'm getting almost the same performance out of the i317 oem battery.
