Post up links to the aftermarket batteries you have gotten and whether they are good or not. Let's share the knowledge in one place. :)
 
First day with the 1900mah battery made by Feipusi. I put it in last night charged it over night ,crossing my finger hoping my phone wouldnt melt or bust, and it did pretty good today..I had the 4g on the whole day and and juice defender and it held up to my normal use i did try to text a little more and make more calls ,also i had my phone underclocked to 490 and i increased the clock to 970 too..so i think it did pretty awsome .Is it better than the stock ,as of now yes.I dont know how it gonna hold up during the coming days but we'll se .I'm glad it didnt blow up on the phone ..lol that always a good thing.

I'm planning on setting whatsapp to run during screen off which i had it disabled to do so through juicedefender .

so tomorrow i'll be running the phone at 918mhz during screen/on, 478 mhz during screen/off and buck wild when charging.Also the only app that i will be running constant will be whatsapp and JD .i dont tweet,nor check email either much nor care much for Fbook.Also planning on having 4g on all day ...hope it holds up ,if not the only change for the next day will be to use 4g Toggle and have 4g off and run using edge.

So i got 15% on the phone used it alot more than usual and it did pretty good .If you guys want me to test the phone in a certain setup let me know..Im not very creative lol ..tell me if you want me to run it without JD or with out 4g.a certain clock speed or what not...whatever ..

Just let me know and i'll do my best to run the battery under those settings

This is how i ran it .

........"so tomorrow i'll be running the phone at 918mhz during screen/on, 478 mhz during screen/off and buck wild when charging.Also the only app that i will be running constant will be whatsapp and JD .i dont tweet,nor check email either much nor care much for Fbook.Also planning on having 4g on all day ...hope it holds up ,if not the only change for the next day will be to use 4g Toggle and have 4g off and run using edge."
 
Yeah so i ran the battery with out SetCpu nor JD , it didnt go well at all....i didnt make any calls and received two whatsapp messages and the battery was at 75% for hours into it .Seven hours in it was at 45% i had to turn on JD and Setcpu cuase i knew it was not gonna make it and i was at a meeting and i dont have a car charger ..still knew to this town and i rely on my phone,calls and txt, and my car GPS to get around ...i wasnt confident at all did it would have lasted much. So is it better than stock yes but you still have to throttle and tweak your phone to make it "useful"... so the 1900mah battery is ok and helps a reasonable amount but this phone is a battery hog.
 
I just got mine yesterday. It came with an 80% charge. I played videos from metro studio, I had 4g and everything else on I killed the battery. I have the 2x battery app, it is having an issue calculation remaining battery life. I charge it over night. I turned it on this morning at 6am. That charge lasted until 3pm with light use. The battery saver app was on since 8pm. I am charging it again now. I guess this discharge and recharge has to be done three times! I will let you know more. On Thursday. PS Not rooted. I am waiting on the replacement from metropcs due to overheating issues. I believe this battery will work better on a non issue phone. IMO! We will see.
 
this is how i run my phone and i get throught the day amd still have like 35% went i set it to charge.

running the phone at 918mhz during screen/on, 478 mhz during screen/off and buck wild when charging.Also the only app that i run constant is whatsapp and JD .i dont tweet,nor check email either much nor care much for Fbook.Also have 4g on all day...My display brightness is at 20%..i also dont have gps on nor wifi..

This phone actually doesnt drain much during phone calls to be honest ..I think the display is what really does the draining
 
I'm using the 3850 mah beast with extended back cover.. love it, I play ALOT of 3D games and my phone is not getting half as hot either.. normal use I have around 70% at the end of a day "without gaming".. it honestly took about 20-25 mins for my phone to go from 5% to 0% by me playing modern combat 3 intentionally trying to kill my battery
 
So far, I have gone two days with the 2430. It has held up pretty well.

To those who are disappointed with their extended 1900, remember to kill it first, then plug it in so that the lights flash, and charge for 8-10 hours. That will give you a real full charge.

The 2430 gave me over 20 hours the first day with light 4G connectivity, mostly wifi, and no video or games. Today, I've gotten about 16 hours with 4G Tethering for about an hour. I will try duplucating my 20 hour run, before I begin running video playback times on the stock, 1900 and 2430.
