Has anyone tried this one
http://www.gpsforless.co.uk/product_details.php?id=6103
looks lke the new back door they provide is no where near as bluging as the 3200mAh version doing the rounds ..... but the picture may be deceptive !!
Anyone got one or used one
I have a 2800mah one I bought from igonemobile.com (via eBay).. the one that is bigger than normal and requires the special case that comes with it. I actually like it since it lifts the speaker up. With the original battery, if the phone is flat, the speaker is blocked. This 2800 works pretty good. Seems to like playing mp3's, wi-fi, and T-mobile internet usage so far. I have not charged it since Friday (Monday now) and it has like 50% power left.
I bought one in ebay (from China). 7€ + 4€ postal cost. It works nice ¡¡

Why did you double post this from the accessories forum?
Whats case do you use?
Hey guys,
you use the bigger Battery.
Which case do you use, no case?
I find no case for the bigger batteries...
Thanks!

Yes I was wondering the same thing but I don't know if it would fit into my i.trek charger so it could be a moot point for me.
I guess maybe I just need a good "eyeglass style" case for my device.
A case for a bigger battery
Hey,
do you have tips which case I can use if I want a Battery with 2400 or 3200mAH
Thanks!
Oliver
Go to fortte dot com they make great cases and now have one that fits both extended and regular.
d
so do you guys reccommend getting 2 regular size batteries or an extended. the picture for the 3200mAH extended makes it look crazy big. i like keeping it in my pocket. What do you prefer? Also, what is the longest lasting batterry that can fit in the phone without a different back? Thanks guys. Just got my phone yesterday. Loving it. Trying to get all the things i need.
Good tip, more tips?
Thanks dwella,
good site you recommended. Yes, there a cases for bigger batteries.
But I love cases I can use my TYTN in the case, no need to pull it out.
Normaly I worked with Brando Alu Cases ore PDAIR Leather Cases with open front.
Has anyone a tip for cases with these specifications (No nee to pull out)
Thanks

Hey,
I searched all the forums and interet pages. Is it possible that ther ist noch case for sale for a bigger battery (mugen 3200 mAH)
I can't believe this, no one has an idea?
Thanks!

I've been looking around for an extended battery for some time for this big screen 4g juice sucker. looking around the internet there only seems to be an international version of extended battery.
http://www.amazon.com/QCell-Samsung...2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1330794008&sr=1-2
I've been using the QCell 2x regular batteries for galaxy note and so far it's quite good. Granted these 2 batteries combined can last me for a day without charging but I still look forward to using only one battery.
Looking at the label on the regular battery, I see it caters to the i9220 version (which is the international one). My guess is that it's not the battery, but the cover does not fit the i717? Has anyone try to mod the above cover to use on the i717?
Seidio is bringing one out.
EDIT: I removed the link because it says not compatible with the i717. Sorry for my confusion.
What are the chances of getting a higher capacity battery of the same size? I have a case on mine so I would like more battery life without having to take it off and those extended batteries are too bulky for me.

That says it's not compatible with the LTE Note, a.k.a. ATT Note.
Most folks report great battery life. I wonder if just having a second battery is enough rather than the expense of an extended one. Thoughts?
I'm taking preorders on a 5000 mah extended battery for the Galaxy Note i717 coming in within two weeks. http://www.techiewarehouse.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=extended+note+i717
If I get anything else in sooner I'll update on here.

You are right, sorry for posting that. I will edit that post. Funny how they did not even put up the page until the i717 model came out?
Thank for pointing that out!

No prob. And I am a bit confused. Wonder why it wouldn't work in the ATT Note? The Notes don't share the same battery? Weird.
---------- Post added at 09:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 PM ----------
Guess what? The link in the OP also states it is not compatible with the ATT Note. The user review states something about the back not snapping on correctly so that may be the issue. Don't know but... Beware!
yeah I would really like an extended battery. have a 9 hour flight coming up and will likely have to just get a 2nd one, as I don't want to have to worry about conserving battery as I'm going to be quite bored for 9 hours
thanks for the link justnada22, i'll check it out when it's available, though your site doesn't appear to be loading for me currently.
I asked Mugen Power whether they will bring the extended battery + integrated kickstand to the i717 and they said "working on it".

Galaxy Note Extended Batteries and Cases
Sorry to resurrect a slightly older thread, but I found some answers and wanted to share.
So I own two Galaxy Note International N7000s and just bought one AT&T i717.
Yes, I can confirm that, for whatever reason, the batteries are just slightly different in shape. I have no idea why. As a result, you need two different extended batteries for each one, you can find them on Amazon from Hyperion, and they're both clearly labeled as to which battery fits which. I've bought both, and they all fit their intended models just fine.
Like many of you, I was looking for a case for my Notes with extended batteries, and I could only find one for the N7000:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007R5I8KA/
It seems that there are none for the i717.
But the good news is that this case DOES fit the i717 AT&T Note with the extended Hyperion battery as well. It holds on snugly, and is fine for that model. There is some air space inside, because the AT&T Note has a smaller battery protrusion and so it doesn't perfectly match the curvature of the case (which is larger) but you'll never notice that, and this is far better than carrying around your Note and extended battery with no case! I bought the red version of this case which is on my i717 AT&T Note, and is just wonderful! It feels so much safer than a Note with no case. So, speaking just for myself, WOULD BUY AGAIN EVEN FOR THE AT&T NOTE!!!
I posted similar information in the product reviews for the Black and Red versions of the case, just to try to help.

C-sign...I don't mind this case with the i7i7 battery back either.
What is the largest extended battery that is reliable that can be used with the stock battery cover? Is it the Anker 2700?

Searched to see if anyone had mentioned this yet, but didn't find anyone talking about it:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/External-32...099120?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3cc475e7b0
I am very interested in this case. Will probably order one, but was hoping someone had tried one already and could give their thoughts on it. You can see my thoughts on the extended battery I already have at this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24815396&postcount=14
I think this power case option looks much better than the lump I have now.
I really like the idea of putting the extra battery capacity into the case. I saw this a long time ago for the iPhone, and was hoping that someone would come out with this for our phone, and they did, but not as nice as some I have seen for the iPhone. I would like one that wrapped around onto the face a little bit, for some protection when I put the phone face down.
Anyone seen any other companies making similar ones for our phone yet?
The case you linked is for the wrong Note. Look for the I717 (ATT Note), not the N7000 (international version).
There is a difference in the back design between the two phones.

This doesn't replace the battery door, so it should work fine. Unless you know of some other difference I am not aware of. I have used about 3 different international versions of bumpers/surrounds/cases on my i717 without any issue. A problem only happens when you try to use the wrong battery door.
I think it will fit perfectly on the US note. It is simply a case and all cases i have bought so far weren't for the US note but fit perfectly.
If this is good quality then this is something I might look at too. I like the fact that it will add more battery life and protect the Note in one item. Please post how it works once you get it.

Is it additive?
So plug this on the back and I get 5700 mAh? Since it doesn't replace the back cover, see no difference between International and US version.
Don't buy it i bought one it doesn't have that size battery, if you open it up it actually has a 2000mah battery so it really is a 1600 may since its Chinese i bought one for my galaxy s2 from same guy and the battery was half the size stated on case. Pure junk
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
If this phone had a non-removable cover I wouldn't even consider it because of the finish they've applied. That said, is there any reason there shouldn't be suitable quality matte or textured replacements?
I dunno. Ive never seen any with the sgs2.
I've used my sgs2 religiously for about a year and I have never had a problem with my back battery cover. And I swap out the battery almost once a day.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I heard the rechargeable battery cover will have grubber grips on it or something.
I've seen plenty of replacement battery doors on ebay for the s2 and the galaxy nexus, so I'd say there's a good chance. I don't know how good the quality is though.
IF there is one, will that mach the phones color and hyperglaze? i would like to have few alternatives
Maybe someone will make one with the same texture as on SGSII . I like it.
I believe this thread belongs to accessories forum

The problem is the hyperglaze. That's what's making the polycarbonate cover slick and glossy. I think white might be safer for people planning on changing the rear cover. Easy to find a white cover, and even if it's different it shouldn't look odd. That pebble blue print is unique and will look terrible if the rear cover doesn't match.

Ive Read About Laza's Regular 1900 Slim Battery's But This One Is Different And Looks Better Than Other Extended Battery's Ive Seen. Plus All Of Its Reviews Are A1
I just bought this battery on ebay today for $13 and its an USA seller too. It should be here a little less than a week. Ill probably put up a video or pics of my first impression and close up the battery if you guys want. Then a little after I'll do a full review once I train my battery and give it some tests. I'm a pretty heavy user so dont be disappointed if I get less than 10 hours, since I average 3-4 hours off the stock battery.

I would suggest you read the reviews right from the Amazon link you posted. They give you exactly what you are asking for, personal reviews. Because of this I ordered one and I love it. I cut a hole in my TPU case to fit the cover, it's not perfect it gets the job done as I don't want my phone to be without a case/cover and it only cost me 4 bucks at the time.
When you get it it says that it needs five full charge and discharge cycles for full capacity. I actually used it once for TWO DAYS on a single full charge. :highfive:
The oddly shaped case is a love or hate design. The plus is that the edges are the thickness of a regular case instead of the fat thickness all other extended batteries have. I also feel it fits better and the buttons, power volume up and down, work better than other backs I've seen although I've never seen the Seidio back. Minus is that the design has this huge unsightly bulge and less than nice aesthetics.

This battery is great idk why one of the posters thinks they lie. I bought if for about 13 bucks. I can ge about 14 hours of medium to heavy use. Which is way way better than stock. I have a sorta review on the android forums i just cant link cause im new here :/
