Aftermarket Extended Battery RECIEVED

Ok guys its been about a month now. And I don't know what's going on but hopefully someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong. I have the two pack plus charger. So when my battery dies I always have another one ready to be put in. I just wipe battery stats then boot. But latey my battery life has been crap. Is there another way to train the phone when you're using two extended batteries? Like now, I just put in this charged battery about 20 minutes ago and it's already dropped to 73% :-( please help

Are you using 2 of the same batttery... ie... 2000mAh or are they different? When you first got the batteries did you completely drain them before charging them up? Do you wipe battery stats everytime you swap batteries?

Yep two 3800mah. When I first got them I charged to 100% then drained to 0% then charged with cord charger. And yes I wiped stats everytime

Thats weird.... Try not wiping data every time and also just charge the battery thru the phone, when 1 is completely charged swap for the other? Not sure what else u can try.... let then drain out completely and try again.
 
Now if they even make batteries for warp (mugen) it would be very pricey I bought a Chinese battery for my spectrum and mugen(same battery) is $80
 
Thanks to this thread I bought an extended battery, recalibrating the battery as I type this (on my iPad). Weird question but does anyone have suggestion for armband holders to use? Not sure if it will fit in a normal warp one as it is a bit fatter now.

Thanks for all who post here and share ideas, I appreciate reading and learning from you all.

I have two arm band cases I use when out for a run,hiking @ the gym or doing yard work while listing to music,audiobooks,podcasts etc... With my wireless headphones. I would be lost with out them one I bought off Amazon (yellow one) the black one I picked up at Dicks sporting goods.
 
They have armband holders on eBay, but not sure if I want to spend the money seeing that the phone is fatter now. Was hoping someone might have an idea. With the rubber case no longer fitting I want something to hold the phone while at the gym.

Will check out Dicks, thanks.
 
Tony i am sorry i missed the part about your extended battery and phone being thicker,i don't own the extended battery it was to bulky and ugly for me i returned it the day i received it and went ahead and bought two extra regular stock ones and just toss them in my backpack or bike saddle if i am going on a long day trip.The ones i have will not work with your brick sorry.
 
it takes abbout 4 days to charge from 0 to 100%. and only lasted 3 days lol. going to have to buy a portable charger to just charge the battery when its not on the phone.
 
I just wanted a small improvement over the stock battery. So I ordered the three pack of 2000mAh batteries with a wall-charger. I figured there isn't a case that is created to protect the phone after using the 3800mAh so 3x 2000mAh batteries would work for me. I'll start another thread reviewing this upgrade when the batteries arrive in a week or so.

Thats what I had done the day I received my extended battery I was floored by the size and weight of it not to mention how uncomfortable and bulky (ugly) it was to carry around,that I sent the seller a email and sent it back that night and ordered two 2180mAh stock size batteries with charger and it works great.I can go on a all day hike or bike ride using gps with no worries at all just toss them in the backpack or saddle bag,sightseeing with the family on vacation it just plane out works and makes sence.You will be very pleased and they charge just as fast as the stock battery under 90 min from being fully drained.:D
