Hey everyone,
i've been rocking this.
http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Sams...ywords=hyperion+samsung+galaxy+s+III+4000+mah
for about 4-5 days now.. ordered it off Amazon for a STUPID cheap price.. and i must say.. wow. 5/5
I normally like Mugen better, and i'm going to get a mugen battery whenever they make one..but this a GREAT replacement for the time being..
i have a PEBBLE BLUE T-Mobile galaxy S III as well.. and the White back actually looks really nice MIXED with the blue!
Also i love the FEEL of the back.. i actually like it better then the Stock GS3 itself.. it adds more weight and SOLID feel to the overall product and i LOVE IT! it's better then a stock GS3 by far.. actually feels like it's own new phone.
The battery life? definitely top notch.. i get by 3 days sometimes with heavy usage, texts, FB.. Sync turned on GPS.. all of it.
Highly recommend this... :good::good:
.......me want...IF there was a case, take some pics please? C:

Edit Again : Could you post a picture of the inside of the battery cover? With it being so bulky, i would like to see how strong it looks?
Alright ill get some pictures for you guys =)
Also you want battery stats? should i wait until it's drained all the way down?
The back battery cover is DEFINITELY stronger then the stock SGS3 back.
How long does it take to charge with the stock charger?

The only problem with carrying it as a spare is you also need to carry the battery cover. But if you were to order two of them..... use one as your main battery and carry the second one as a spare and you don't need to carry an extra battery cover.
BTW, anyone know how it might compare to this one? It looks pretty much the same but comes with a charger. http://www.amazon.com/4300mAh-Exten...external/dp/B008ARDVM4/ref=pd_bxgy_cps_text_b

I did not get this one because i don't even see a brand name listed,
Hyperion is a brandname i can at least recognize
I ordered this as well and after a 1 foot fall off my bed onto carpet the rigid plastic battery cover broke a corner off. IMO the back is not as good quality as may be advertised here. YMMV. I'm using the stock battery and an otterbox now for the protection.

Well i can't vouch for dropping it.
in all the years of owning a smartphone every single iphone model, several android models i've never done any brutal drops to my phones. ever
**the other thing is... it's 15$.. i mean crap.. you can't even beat that as a BACK replacement.. take the battery out of the equation most BACKS would probably cost 20$ if found in the mall..
So 15$ its a steal. buy 2 if you need to.
is there a 3000 mah that doesnt require a new back?

Finally below 10% juice left. See images. This is the battery from Verizon's site. If ENOUGH of us buy this battery, they'll make cases for it. Right now, they claim there isn't enough of a demand. I see sooooooo many people complain about battery life, but don't want the 3500mAh battery, due to its size. This IS the happy medium. Lets go folks!

This battery is only a little more than 1/3 added juice than the stock battery, so if I can get 3 days, stock users can get almost 2! The key is to use setcpu and create a profile for"screen off" and set the max cpu in that profile to 460 or so.
Good luck!

Awesome!
I have the same battery, I love it...What other settings are you using? Hydra kernel v1.0 right?
I just went out and bought the battery based on this post.
Can you tell me your EXACT setup?
Thanks.

You guys are smart! I have the 8/1 leak but just about to upgrade to the new "official" leak. Yes, it's the hydra v1.0 ocuv kernel @1.15GHz. S-off, with clockworkmod 2.5.0.5. The theme is the manup revolution theme, but I'm not sure I'll use that one again because the battery meter in the notification bar is not accurate and when I try to change it, I get issues.
The main thing, besides a good bump charge, is the setcpu profile. I'm running setcpu in "on demand". Make one profile for "screen off" and make your max cpu 460 and leave the minimum at 245 or whatever. I made a 2nd profile for battery less than 25% that makes the max 560MHz. I've had NO non-responsiveness. Just always there when I need it and even with the "screen off" profile set to low CPU speed, I still hear my phone vibrate before I get the email in outlook, at work.
Any more questions, just let me know!
P.S. Check my sig to see if it answers anything else you want to know about my set-up.
EDIT: XDA members can get SetCPU for free here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419

This battery is a great piece of hardware. It allows the phone to lay flat while protecting the camera lens and as jermaine151 mentions, there is more phone to hold onto while typing. This is a great buy and I say that even though I paid the extra cost by going through HTCpedia prior to Verizon making this available.

I'm going to swing by the store on my way home and see if its available. I've gotten my stock battery to last through an entire day with mediocre use, so I would love to be able to use this and get over a day with heavy use.
I got mine by calling vzw customer service. I'm not sure if they have them in stores yet. Btw they included overnight shipping for free for me.

you should note you had 3g/blue tooth off that whole time which is I'm guessing how you achieved the 2% cell standby. Also the phone was only awake for 7mins/hr
i like the way it sits in my hand with the battery, give a nice feel. before the phone was to light/
thanks for the link of setcpu..had no idea it was free for xda members! I have the seidio battery, 1750mAH? I think. But I will look into your battery

I just got this exact battery 2 days ago and according to the reviews..after 5 full cycles it kicks in for the long battery life...so far it is getting longer and longer between charges for power but nothing to really write about...just wish there was a case and a holster for it because I really hate to put it in my pocket.

The screenshot shows my usage, the screen was on for more than 37% of the time thoug,, about 70% of the time. MIUI has already had trouble displaying the actual screen usage. I got the phone thru that link though, when I clicked the link there was "other people also bought this item" and it showed the same battery for a little less. Total cost was $18 with taxes and shipping
oh miui does not display actual screen usage time? does that mean when you press display the time that it shows there is wrong? anyway i always thought that the % meant % of battery used of total battery usage as opposed % of time used since unplugged.
I'm considering buying another extended since the chinese one i got doesnt give me quite the extended battery life i desire. it was only maybe a 30% improvement as opposed to a 70-100% improvement that I'm looking for over the stock.
You talked me into it...just ordered!
If that had a holster id be on it

Yeah, miui has two parts. The first is total usage since you restarted. The second is total usage since you last charged the batter battery above 90%.

haha i just thought since the extended has like 2800mah it should be double? i dont really understand the technical stuff with the mah's so i'm probably wrong. i never had a problem with my stock battery. its just nice to come home at 70% or 60% rather than at 30 or 40%
I cant believe how fast I received it... ordered Tuesday morning and got it yesterday. I'm going to give it the test today at work. I have been streaming radio on shoutcast with my old battery and will see how this one does although I see where some have said you have to condition the battery first before you will get maximum life....can anyone vouch for this?

Looks bulky. Not worth it imo. Too much money for a little more than double the battery. Plus no case would ever fit that thing.

Unless it has filler plastic or that backshell is rigid, you're going to end up with a soft spot in the case above and below the battery.

Not sure if this APC unit is still available, but there are many other options out there.

I have this! I just don't know how much it'll charge my atrix cause it only charged like 75 percent of my iphone battery and i think thats only like 1350 mahs?
Ok, so every phone I've owned has had a removable battery. I just moved to the N4 from the Galaxy S3 because my S3 crapped out on me and this was the cheapest phone I could buy new off contract. I'm finding myself miserable without a removable battery. Hate it. With my S3 I had 4 spare batteries to carry around so that I never had to charge. With the N4, I always have to be near a charger. Drives me nuts. I know there will be times when I'll run out of juice completely before I leave work for the day (where I might not have a charger). So, how do you guys do it? Just not use your phones? I'm I'm IT and use my phone like nobody's business. I don't just leave it in my pocket with sync off and data off. It's not realistic and that's not what these phones were made for. What a stupid move by Google and LG to make the battery non removable.
Help! Ideas? Thanks.
Get a wireless charger for work and place the phone on it when it's not being used (I know they are rather costly now but it does make charging the phone effortless).
the back is easily removable, and they sell replacement batteries.. piece of cake
I have a custom kernel installed on my phone. We have some of the best kernel developers over here that cook up great kernels that allows our phone to last longer than stock. I also carry a portable external battery pack with me just in case. And I always end up not using it. LOL.
I suggest you try the phone out without a custom kernel and see how it goes from there. If you're not satisfied, root and flash a custom kernel of your choice and make your judgement. Remember, your usage will determine the amount of battery life your phone will get.

LOL. It's going to be such a hassle to remove the screws and to remove the back cover just to switch batteries. Imagine riding the subway and your phone dies. Would you take out screw drivers and a prying tool to change batteries? :laugh:
I charge over night, and when I get to work Its plugged in when @ my desk. Thats how I got by with my iPhone 3S, 4 4S and 5. I don't expect the Nexus to be different.
Just flash Franco Kernel. I get awesome battery life.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Franco kernel, and pa3....are a great combo! I get 10 hrs of heavy use and still have over 20% to spare. The best rom/kernel combo I have tried to date, actually the stock pa kernel is great as well but I use my n4 as my music player all day and Franco kernel sounds better (faux sound maybe? I dont follow the change logs as much as i should......perhaps someone with greater knowledge will chime in). So far I'm not complaining.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the feedback. Any suggestions for a kernel on RootBox?
And any tutorials on switching batteries?
Thanks again.
Motley kernel. Do it now
Is motley under original development?
Simple answer carry a external battery pack like this one. Like carrying 5 batteries in one package.

It would be nice if a kernel had fast charge capabilities. Would make charging off an external battery much nicer.

i keep my phone clocked at 1026mhz high/384mhz low. its still speedy, and i get great battery life, about 3.5-5 hours screen on time depending what im doing.
i'd get a wireless charger for while at work, and a car charger for when you're out and about..
Just got my first cycle out the way and wow its just the best extended battery out period. Let my pics talk the talk lol...

I found it on Amazon but it's unavailable right now http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Q7C6FTA
It doesn't even have a review. The 1 review left was for a Note 2 it looks like.
I'd almost want to buy one, but I hate that they didn't bother to put a hole for the speaker. I watch a ton of stuff on my my phone and listen to a lot of music; too much to have no speaker hole. :/
why would people make their phone this huge lol..
This has got to only be useful for those going on massively long trips with no power to charge the phone with. I could see this being used for mountain climbing Mt. Everest so you can play movies while waiting for the 3 week long blizzard to end.

Not only, though. Think charging your phone once a week.
That screen time is absolutely insane! Too bad it looks like a mini brick haha
I had the same thing for my note 3, was great for when I was in Disney taken pictures and wifi... But that big bulky case sucks! Like having a brick in your pocket
This is awesome for heavy users like me that can't put our note 4 down and on them 24/7... I pre ordered it of Amazon I'm not sure if they still have some available... The bulk of the phone is a small price to pay for 16 plus hours of screen time...

The battery itself has a cut out that re routes the sound to the bottom of the phone which is nice...
I had this for my note 3. The battery life fell off a cliff after 4 months of use and customer service refused to acknowledge their use of poor quality cells. Not worth the size or price. For the money, I bought 3 spare batteries plus charger and official Samsung case for less than the price of this POS. Never again will I buy from ZeroLemon. I got a lemon from ZeroLemon! ROFL.

==========
There is a channel in the battery that directs the sound to the bottom of phone (like the Tab tablets). ..sound is better with case on than when off.

I highly doubt it sounds better with something covering the speaker than not. That makes no sense. But maybe the speaker is to loud for some.

I'd rather charge my phone once a day at night when i'm not using it anyways than have a brick for a phone. I'd rather not look like the worlds biggest nerd.
Found an Amazon link. Not available yet, though. I wonder how this fares with drops, though. But hey, if this product from ZeroLemon turns out to be A LEMON, like someone else indicated (for the record, I take no credit for that "joke"), I won't be buying it. Besides, I still love my UAG case.
Not sure if they usually make "lemons" but I bought the tempered glass screen protector from them and I will say, I was expecting better.
I honestly can't comprehend why almost anyone would want/need this. I recently spent 2 months backpacking Europe and Africa too. On the average day I would kill my Note 3's battery and slap in a backup after dinner. While sleeping, my Note 3 was stored in a locker, while the dead battery was charging at a wall outlet. On a long travel day, aka train or plane, I might kill the battery earlier. Sometime in the evening I would simply plug my phone into the wall to help charge the 2nd battery, and then overnight charge the battery I killed earlier that day.
My only thought would be someone on a week long hike. However, serious hikers always take light weight items. They wouldn't lug around a 1990 Zack Morris sized cell phone.

If you are on your phone so much that you need a car battery attached to it, you have bigger problems... like not having friends, a girl friend, a social life, etc...
If you are on a long trip, it's easier to just bring a recharge pack or spare battery...

Especially this ^^ Don't wear your phone on your belt and attempt to find a girlfriend. This will reduce the need to play video games on your phone and lookup useless information that keeps you from interacting with other humans. Set a goal of touching a boob next year. Its worth it.
