After market batteries only.

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.

My 2430 only held that good first day.. then it was even worst than 1500...
does this battery charge 100% while phone is ON? and of course with phone charger..
 
original charger, phone on, 100% both times so far.

Also, first full charge (the 8-10 after killing it), you are supposed to turn it off after it reaches 100% and then wait for it to say 100% while the phone is off to reach actual full 100% charge.

wait a minute.. you mean u charge dit and it said 100%.. but you left the phone on during the whole charge??

i usually leave my phone on all night long and i leave it charging...
with the original battery and 1900 when i wake up after 7 or 8 hours it says charged... and i check and it s at 100%
with the 2400 and 3500 my phone never reaches 100% usually it says 97 and sometimes 99 and it can stay right there for 3 hours and wont move from there...
i have to turn off the phone and it will fully charge..
is that what u mean??
 
with my battery monitor widget i get a notification when the battery displays 100% and another when all the battery cells are truly full. their usually about 4 hours apart.

this is with the phone ON. i have the 3850mah BTW.

huh i have the widget how do u get that? btw my estimation shows about 3900 i think u said it was 3000
 
i have the battery monitor widget pro and i don't that notification :( guess i need to let it charge longer, oh well not complaining i still get great battery life with the 3850

edit: whoop just realized my notifications in the app were on silent drrr
 
I guess there is no hope that a company will make a slim aftermarket battery at this point? The stock battery lasts me for about 4 hours with regular use and I want to get the 3850mah battery but not case fits :(
 
The only other solution i would know of would be to get an external extended battery. Metro stores will have these in stock.
 
Has anyone tried this battery:
