Yep, it's in the back cover.

Just posting to get opinions on after market batteries. I have owned the Atrix 4G since the day it came out with no complaints whatsoever. The battery life seems to be comparable to my old iPhone 3g (which i hated) but because the Atrix is so much better I obviously have it opened and am using it a lot more.
-Is it worth it to buy the optional extended batteries?
-Are they bigger that OEM batteries?
-How much longer is the battery life?
-If so, I assume my current Otter Box would not fit?
Thank you for the help.

The largest is a Seidio (which I dont think is out) it's only a 2200 MAH, compared to our 1900 (ish) MAH. I got a new replacement from moto because my battery life wasn't lasting as long as it was when i first bought it. Turned out I actually had the wrong battery mode on and it was using up too much power.
I have the 3600 mah, and while its big and you can't use a phone, it makes it easier to hold the phone imo, and lasts all day easily.

Jeez that thing would last me like 2 days
Userid moretalktime on eBay sells custom TPU cases the atrix with the extended battery installed.

My review with heavy usage says you'll last forever. Now I squeeze a day and a half with stock battery. That battery pushes me several.

do you have a prob where the % do not reflect the actual battery usage? my battery can show 30% but after a reboot it will show 100%. I can do a reboot twice before it shows the actual %
I can confirm CEOGUY's report on the Seidio3200. It is indeed a beast.
I too experienced the battery calibration problem. I am now using the latest Battery Monitor Widget. Something was fixed in a recent update that allows the calibration to work correctly.

Does the battery req a special charger? Or just charging direct from the phone will be sufficient
No special charger, I use the OEM one.

I'm looking to buy a new battery because this 1400 mah just isn't cutting it. I want to buy a bigger one but I don't want all that extra bulk in the back and have to replace my stock battery door. Can someone tell me the biggest battery mah wise that I can buy w/o having to get rid of my battery door?

Seidio has a 1600. That's the biggest i've seen, and it looks like most reviewers are finding performance similar to stock.

Go name brand when you do. I have a 1800 mah no name and its not that great. Might be better than stock but not much.
Pm me your address if in the USA and ill send you a battery I got from htc express. I never used the battery (came with 2). I'll eat the shipping cost.

I went the chinese route and received 2 x 1500 mah and have noticed same battery as stock. Guess I got lucky.

wow, that was nice!!!
Sadly you won't be able to get much more performance out of a stock-sized battery, the manufacturer usually fits the largest battery they can in the phone. Any third party claiming to have a higher capacity is usually lying about the specs.
I would instead focus on software tweaks, I can easily get a full day out of my stock battery with moderate use.
I don't lower any of my settings. I keep the push email. Sometimes I use Live Wallpaper. I let my device pull LTE data speeds whenever I want. With the extended battery it lasts longer than I need in a day. Other than needing to order a case I don't mind. The bulge in the back is not as bad as some people made it seem. Pros outweigh the cons for me.

Just bought extra batteries and a battery charger. By the time my battery is dying, the next one is charged and ready to go.

app helped my battery life
I'm new here and the TB is my first Android phone. I came across an app that has helped with my battery life..... called keyboard backlight controller. It allows you to turn off the two lights that eluminate the four soft keys on the bottom of the phone. I've only been using it a couple days, but really seems to have helped by having those lights off, not HUGE diff, but anything helps.
Not sure if this was the right place to post this, but thought it might be helpful to others. It does require root.
Instead of buying an extended battery for my note I want to buy an extra battery and keep it in my wallet, which I keep in my back pocket. Would the battery leak if I were to sit or would it be alright for me to keep the battery in my wallet?
It would be perfectly fine. I leave every morning with a full charge on my phone and spare battery. The spare sits in my wallet which stays in my back pockets all day. I'm in and out of chairs all day with no issues. To each their own but I love the spare battery option...

Also since the p760 battery has NFC, does this mean that using a p760 battery on the p769 will activate NFC? (with a proper kernel of course)

Have you checked the part numbers?
Sent from my LG-P769 using xda app-developers app
I'm not sure which numbers i should be looking at. Some websites that sell p760 batteries advertise it as working for the p769 too, and some don't which confuses me
Does anyone know if this battery has NFC? It's an offical LG battery. http://www.amazon.com/LG-Optimus-P8...74&sr=1-2&keywords=lg+optimus+l9+p760+battery

I think it does. No way to tell unless we were to tear one apart or contact LG, but the BL-53QH is the same battery in a handful of models like the 4X and it has NFC.
NFC is not in battery. There is only extra connector for power backup in battery. NFC chip is on main board and that's why are antenna pins from there to back cover...
Sent from my P760 using Tapatalk 2
There are products like Samsung where the NFC antena is placed inside the battery. But LG opted to put the NFC antena on the battery cover. I know this because i have an LG P760 (with NFC).
So buying a battery intended for P760 will not enable NFC. The mainboard has to be equiped with an NFC chip, and then you could just buy the battery cover for the antena.
I'm not that foud of NFC, i have only used it once, to see if it works. I would rather have the 8Mpx camera than the NFC.

If using an extended battery...most aftermarket back covers have very weak signal...buy an OEM one

No, but the HTC back cover should be used if issues arise. Other manufacturers, especially the cheaper knock-offs, often have issues with the back cover and the antenna contacts. The HTC extended back cover can be purchased seperately.
Acejavelin is right..I have 2 extended batteries but and 2 back covers...one is aftermarket and gets really bad signal and one is manufacturer made by HTC and works perfect...you can get em online fairly cheap

Ah OK, that might be my problem. I got one of those Laza 3240mah batteries, and it's so big the normal extended battery case wouldn't fit. You have to use the back cover that comes with the battery in order for it to fit.
