Has anyone tried this battery in their S4? i;m curious to know if there is any improvements on the battery life and if there are any problems?
I don't think 200mAh would make a difference

I have the Ravpower as well as Anker. The Ravpower is about the same as the stock battery while the Anker lasts a bit longer.

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

That's what I'm thinking.

Link to this anker battery?

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?
Does the nexus 4 has the new lg battery technology that can sustain more charges and lesser consumption?

Not new technology, but yes. The battery is lighter and stronger, but more cumbersome.
It's a Lithium Polymer battery.
Hope this helps :victory:

More charges, not sure about the consumption thing
A movie, explaining the technology in the battery that will also be in the Nexus 4:

Anyone knows what charger comes with the SGS4. The sgs3 came with a 1000 mah output charger.
But you can buy a quickcharger with 2000 mah output.
So what kind do u get in the 9505 box?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
it's identical to the one on the S3 from what I've seen
Wrong.
Got my phone today. Charger is a 2A (2000 mAh) output. Same as on my link above.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
It comes with a 2 ah charger.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
It's a 2A or 2000mA charger NOT 2Ah or 2000mAh. the Ah are used to indicate capacity of the battery.
Same as my NoteII charger.
Is any one else having this problem. It takes my phone 6hours to charge to 100% using the provided charger.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
That's how my One was and was one of the main reasons I switched to the S4 Active. No such problems here. I forgot to charge it last night and tossed it on at 8am with 40% on it. By 9:15 it was full.

I find its always best to turn off Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, data, and sync when charging to get the fastest result.

More then likely its just a short in my cord, but was curious if any one else had the problem
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium
this is likely a problem with the cord or adapter. your device should be charging much quicker than this. have you tried another cable?
Even with everything turned on it should not take that long. For the whole 6 hours did it say it was charging?

New MF4 international ROM? If so it charges slow with screen on. Still shouldn't be that slow though. Download Galaxy Charging Current lite and see if the your getting between 1200 and 1900 mA

The s4 is probably the fastest charging phone I've ever had.. It charges to full from any percentage in about an hour.. Maybe bad outlet?

I checked the continiuty in the wire and was getting a lot of resistance. Bought a new cord.

Sigh this would be a dream phone only if the battery was swappable.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
why would you need to swap the battery? it lasts me 2-3 days of use
I dont use wifi at all. So heavy use drains battery rather quickly. I dont like wall changers either.

Haven't used wifi on this phone due to T-Mobile's 40mbps LTE, It's literally impossible to blow through the whole battery in a day unless the screen is on for 12 hours. Generally it's around 60% battery when I go to bed after being off the charger for 14ish hours after a heavy use day.
Its worth acquiring the Korean model. F320K. It comes with 2 x 2600 mAh batteries and a docking station that allows the batter which is not in the phone to charge independently. It also has a microSD slot supoorting up to 64GB!

What networks can it run on?
http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g2-5543.php and all versions of the phone have all these bands I believe, the Korean versions have LTE A as a bonus.
