The stock battery is a 2600mAh battery. I'm looking for something more than that but yet fits with the stock backplate. Anyone know of one?
Zero Lemon makes an extended that fits inside of stock cover. Its a 3000ma. Always had great products from them, too.

Thanks! From what I understand though NFC won't work with that battery. So I would need something else.
Good luck, hope you find it!

I want to get a extended battery but haven't found a protective case anywhere for it. I don't want to get a extended battery if I can't find a extended case for it. Any suggestions anyone?

Usually the case comes with the battery. Probably goes best in accessory section

The battery comes with an extended door. I've never actually come across cases for phones with extended doors.

I think it comes with just the door. It doesn't come with a protective case.

There r actually two different items I bought the case on accident thinking it was the one w/ the battery but I use it a lot whenever I do use my extended battery.
edit: I am sorry because i guess they do not make it anymore, but I would email them because they did produce one at one time.

So, now that I've realized and begun the painful process of accepting my battery won't make it until my bed time (11ish). Anyone get a good find on an extended battery. Preferably one that doesn't require added bulk. A 2500 mah that fits the stock slot would be soooo nice

Also interested in this. The phone is so thin a bigger battery might not add too much bulk anyway. Any word on official extended battery?
Just buy a spare battery.

Nope, I went through that with a captivate. Not gonna keep switching, its too much work especially with a case

Do a search in this or the Q&A forum. There was someone who found an expensive one but he was getting something like 40 hours usage! The battery comes with its own battery cover that will replace the stock cover.

I'm trying to avoid adding bulk. However, what's the best one that would require a cover?

Just received email reply from Seidio that they are going to make one for the G3 but wouldn't give me an ETA.

Hmm isn't that only 100mah more than stock ? Seems completely pointless , what we need is at least 2500mah or above to get a benefit

Extended batteries are nice, but you can never find a decent case to fit one. I'll go through the trouble of pulling off my case to pop in my spare battery. :cyclops:
There's already a thread on this in q&a which is where this belongs. Maybe a mod can merge this

Samsung will probably put an official one out right?
Can a cheap replacement battery cause any harm to my galaxy s4? I dont care if the battery is inferior and doesnt perform well because if it doesn't I'll just get rid of it but what I'm worried about is if it will continue to affect my phone after I stop using it...

If it's a cheap replacement battery it can explode and destroy your phone

Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
No, it won't. The battery will just deliver less power. The phone won't be damaged unless it is so bad it overheats or delivers extremely high voltages or something

Not once and not twice, cheap replacement batteries exploded and destroyed the phone.
To the OP, if you want to buy a replacement battery, look at the accessories section http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2165 and you'll see what battery you should buy :good:

The two brass contact points just to the bottom-left of the battery. It's a Samsung galaxy S3 sgh-I747 (AT&T)
I haven't put my multimeter on them yet, but willing to bet they are charging ports.if so I'm going to try to make a docking station for it.
Thanks in advance.

Does the s3 have nfc capability? Those look quite a lot like the connections to the backing where the nfc is actually mounted.

Yes it does have nfc built in. But this hardly looks like an antenna to me.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
The antenna would be on the back cover, those are just the connections between the phone hardware and the antenna on the back.
Sent from my HTC One SV using xda premium
That would make sense, except that the back cover of the S3 is just plain flimsy plastic.

^ is right. That's for WiQiQi Wireless Charger Kit, there's a video.

Would anyone be able to help possible explain something. I've used sacs ROM and Google edition ROM and all different kernels...but my battery...is really bad, I know there's alot of factors but I put a monitor on it and all my apps are doing like nothing...I'm not really using the phone to much... So I'm really confused as to why its like this...

Always the possibility of a bad battery. Have you checked the water marks to see if they have been activated ?
Another thing. Are you using the stock charger ?

I'll give it a look, I didn't think it'd be that, but I'll check
As an example I get about less than 10 hours on a good day if I don't charge or use it much, like WiFi off and whatnot

Yeah there was no water damage marks that were on the battery, it was still white so I'm not sure what's happening

Just a suggestion but with ghost battery issues like yours I would download/install BetterBatteryStats if you have not already and post the dumps in the thread so they can be looked at by those that know what to look for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
