Accessories 3500MAH battery on ebay? Anyone have?

I also have the HK 3500 battery. I've had it about a week. Yesterday finally ran it to 16% charge - 28 hrs. I didn't make alot of phone calls but downloaded a movie,some songs, texted, twittered, and used the internet - my normal kind of usage. I'm very pleased with the results.
 
I'm glad to hear that. I'm still waiting on my replacement. I assume you've had no trouble having your incredible recognize the battery or with charging it?
Hopefully I'll have mine next week.

I just received two 3500 mah batts. wall charger and back cover. Fully charged both and ran the first one down to 9% left. Up time was 19:00 hrs and awake time was 05:53 hrs. Most of the awake time was using Dolphin browser on the net. I'm now using the second battery with 50% battery left with 12:07 up time and 03:03 awake time. Definitely better but was hoping for more so I hope they get better.
 
I just got my replacement and I'm charging it as I type this. I hope for 3 things.
1. that my phone recognizes it when I put it in
2. that it last significantly longer than my verizon 2150mah
3. that I can use the back that came with my 2150
The batteries are the same size and while I thought I liked the brick shaped back that came from ebay, I'd rather use the stock back and the batteries could be changed in a pinch without changing backs.
I'll report back in a day or so
 
It's been about a month and i've seen no degradation at all with my 3500 mah battery. I don't like the size still but at least I can get 1.5 days worth of battery
 
quick update:
at least my phone recognizes the replacement I received from Hong Kong and the back from my 2150 does fit over it, which I'm happy about.
I'll get back with some performance details in a couple of days
 
I've had the battery for a couple of days now and I don't think I'm impressed. I'll preface my comments with the fact I've only charged it twice now and I guess it could get better, but coming from the official 2150 mah, I don't think I'm seeing a difference. I'll give it a few more days and see and then I'll report back.
Still if it's at least the same as the 2150, it's a pretty good deal for $10.
 
Yes think about what you pay for OEM vs eBay batteries. Its a crazy markup. My 3500 goes to 85% real quick then stays there for a while. I play tons of games all day. Fruit ninja, angry birds, and field goal and I still have 40% at night before bed and i've had the battery for a month now
 
After charging and discharging both of these 3500 batteries then on the second time around I got over 44 hrs uptime and over 10 hrs awake time on both batteries. I'm pleased so far!
 
I just learned how to take a screen shot, not rooted and for an old fart like me not bad. My 3500mah hong kong battery is getting better after three full discharges and full charges. 28% battery left and over 44 hrs uptime, and over 9 hrs awake time so wit 28% left I'm sure I'll get 50 + hrs.

How do you take a screenshot when not rooted?
 
I got one of these on the 27th of December. I started by charging it fully, doing a bump charge, then wiping battery stats and draining it all the way down. The next few weeks I got AMAZING uptimes of 32-36 hours with heavy usage.

However, Then last week it started to go down, first to 24 hours, then 20, and now the uptime has dropped to about 13 hours. And I just do not know why, I haven't changed any of my habits or usage rates.
Could it be because I haven't let it drain to complete death these past few days?


If anyone has any suggestions, I am open to anything at this point.
