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!
Oliver
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
Oliver
Help, is there no case for a bigger battery?
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!
Oliver
I don't remember where I saw it, but I remember there being a Samsung Galaxy S II 2000 mAH battery that was NFC-Capable and required no bigger battery door.
Does anyone have the link?
Search ebay for this: GENUINE-SAMSUNG-GALAXY-S2-i9100-ORIGINAL-BATTERY-2000mAh-HIGH-CAPACITY-COVER
I am new to this forum so I can't post a link yet.
I purchased it a few weeks ago for my At&t S2. It works great! When at home on the weekends my battery only goes down to about 70% by the end of the day, before it usually dropped to around 30-40%. Although the battery fits perfect the new cover was made to fit only the Korean version of the phone. I used an xacto knife and trimmed the interfering catches on the sides of the new cover so it fit in place. The end catches of the cover still fit. I then placed the phone in a TPU case which fit perfect without any budges or stretches. Actually feels better to handle and still weighs 8 grams less than my old iPhone 4.

Looking at the pictures it seems that the new battery cover is every so slightly larger. Is that true?
Yes, the Korean battery cover makes the back of the phone flat instead of dipped at the bottom. Also recesses the camera window slightly which is good to protect it. Same texture on the new cover as the original one. It's too bad Samsung didn't make the catches the same on both covers.
The battery works w/o reboots when charging via USB?
So, does it say "Near Field Communication" on the back of the battery like the original 1650maH one?
I have an extra 2000 mAH NFC battery for sale. PM me.
The Korean 2000ma battery does say NFC on the back and I have not noticed any reboots when connected to my PC. I actually don't connect via USB very much, just use Kies air which works good.

Would you say that the back would have no problem staying on if you didn't use a case? I have the car dock and a case won't fit, but I think the battery would. Thanks.
I have not tried to carry the phone without the external case. Mine won't fall off but doesn't require much effort to pop it off with a finger nail. I would be uneasy to use the Korean back without the external case. I did have to give up my home charger base because of using the external TPU case, but I felt it was justified by the extra protection provided by the case.
I have a Ballistic SG case on my phone. Would this battery possibly still fit?

I searched and all I'm finding are international sellers, which takes forever and in the past I've gotten several fakes from international sellers. Anyone know if Amazon or a US Seller has this extended ORIGINAL battery?
Thanks!
I am also hesitant to buy the battery from a foreign 3rd party seller. I spent about an hour and a half on Samsung Korea's website with google translate and I haven't been able to find it for sale on their site.

I MAY be going to Seoul in the next couple weeks... if I do end up going I'm def going to pick one of these up
So I got the Battery today, the battery cover doesn't fit perfectly. I had to get a buffer and do it to both sides of the insertion cover (left + right) for it to be "snugly", though I went overboard on the right side and it's pretty ugly if you look in between the cracks.

Sounds far less than ideal. :-(
The less than perfect fit on the battery cover was not an issue for me. I knew of the issue before ordering the battery. What was important was extended battery life and I wanted to put the phone in a light weight case anyway. The TPU case was a perfect fit and affords a better grip then no case. I am running JuiceDefender in auto mode with a very stock AT&T phone. Bluetooth and wifi are always on and two imap email accounts. On work days I'm usually down to around 70% by night, weekends typically 80% left. I use the phone only on a moderate level, no game playing or videos. Just nice to know I have plenty of reserve left just in case I need a heavy use for a few hours.

Juice defender is so crippling. If you're only using 20-30% all day with JD enabled, why bother? Might as well unleash your phone's full potential, and let it do it's thing. You may only have 20-30% remaining at the end of the day, but as a non-power user, why do you bother using JD? Are you OCD like me and hate seeing less than 75% battery remaining? LOL
It fits perfect now, and it's still thinner and lighter than the original Galaxy S (Captivate)!
Any pics? I want to get an idea of how much thicker it gets.

I don't have a camera, but it's as thick as the bump in the back.
I'm very new in the extended battery fields, and I'm intending to buy the note 3 very soon.
All I want out of this phone is to stay on for 10 hours, but I want a thickness to fit into the pocket.
Considering that I will make an order overseas ( live in Egypt) I would love some advice on a reliable battery that I would not be able to refund.
So which brand is tried, good, and reliable MPJ, Zerolemon, or other? Your help is much appreciated.

I've used an Anker 6400mah, and the ZL. Both can do 10 hours on easy.
Form factor wise, the note with the anker battery and extended back cover isn't terrible. I actually preferred it because the back fit my hand better and gave me a better grip than with the stock battery and cover. It slips into the pocket just as easily.
If you want a case, I'd still go with Anker. Coupled with the Anker, I've been using I use a seidio dilex case. It feels much more secure/ less cheap than the ZL case plus it has a kickstand. The buttons have a much more tactile feeling with the seido case. You can cut an otterbox defender to accommodate either battery, but you are sacrificing protection and risking destroying an expensive case.
If size is the biggest concern though, I'd just buy a second OEM battery and swap it out when your battery gets too low.
hello guys, i ordered normal 3200mah battery for note 3 but seller sent me 6400mah by mistake, altough the phone is now heavy and bulky battery life is amazing so im thinking to keep it, just dont like the fact that i dont have any protective case on my phone now (btw this is my 2nd note 3, previous one broke)
is there any cheap protective cases for note 3 with extended battery, cant find anything on ebay with fair price and shipping to eu?
this is the battery and the back cover > https://images-eu.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51ilhaUjA-L._SX522_.jpg , if there is such a case - dont know if all 6400mah cases are standardized and will fit.

Zerolemon, Anker and Hyperion all have this 6400 mAh battery and cases. So you could check their sites for stock.
Check if that 6400 battery aint damaged, aint it kinda weird u got a better battery by mistake?
they're practically giving away note 3 extended batteries and screen protectors since the phone is so old now
laza $1.99 6400 battery just bought 2 and have been using laza for years. will try to keep the note 3 until they start making phones w/replaceable batteries again instead of phones that look like works of art
I considered a battery case for my phone but just decided to get a normal case instead and bought an external 16000mAh battery. Can charge more than one thing with it and it holds about five Note 3 charges.

Just wanted to provide a quick review for this case ... This thing is a lifesaver if you're in a bind and don't have access to your standard charging options! It is a bit bulky, obviously, but the trade off is worth it! 10,000 mAh gets two full charges so with this case your phone can easily last a few days ... great while camping!
There's no obstruction of the camera (any lense) so snapping pics isn't a problem. Also, you can charge the case and phone while the case is installed with superfast charging! I found Samsung DEX also works through the case too!
Would highly recommend this case! I also love having it around for when we lose power due to storms (which unfortunately has been quite frequent in my area) ... The piece of mind knowing that my phone won't die and I'll be able to stay informed of the situation and make emergency calls if needed is indispensable!
While I too think big numbers are better. This looks way too massive to actually be useful, their own description says it's as thick as 3 s23 ultras, that wouldn't fit in my pocket. Personally I'd just stick with the tiny 5000mAh Anker charger that is magsafe compatible for those that have a magsafe case and it has a nice USB c to c cable for charging the phone and itself. It's smaller than the phone and fits in my pocket with the phone.
This looks like a great concept for extreme users not everyday uses.
I have a 20000mAh portable battery pack that is less thick than this case would make my S23 Ultra so I'll probably just bring the battery pack when my husband forces me to go camping this summer lol
I also have this case, thanks to ZL for sending me a test unit. I really like the case even though it's something I'll use very sparingly. But for camping trips, this one will be a must. Low signal usually means awful battery and I'll for sure be slapping this case on to keep the phone going the entire weekend. I know battery packs are good too and I have one, this case really excels when you need to move around and still use your phone, and don't have to deal with extra cords.
I will say that ZL customer service is awesome too. I had a minor issue with my first test unit and they were willing to get another one sent out right away!
My suggestion is to get a magsafe case and a magsafe powerbank (I have ESR 10000mah) they go hand in hand and is much less uglier!
