This battery works great! Makes the back cover fit extremely tight (you have to push down the side clips for them to clip in), but works great so far.

I should also mention that it makes the phone much heavier.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] neotoky:
Can those with the batteries comment on the fit and the actual mah of the battery? I read the original thread and read people having problems with the fit and people reporting the battery to be an actual 1500 mah battery. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shdw03:
Just got battery today.... Gonna post some pics. As other commented, the alignment of the contacts just a hair off, but works perfectly fine on my phone. Hard to take pics, but tried.the.best I could. Fit is good and the cover snaps firmly
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] neotoky:
So you didn't modify or add anything to make the battery fit? Also, can you post results on your battery cycles? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shdw03:
Nope. When inserting the battery, it initially didn't turn on, but just slid it to the left and works fine. Lucky u guess. No cycles yet. Still on packaged charge for only about 30 min. Will check back the next few days. My reviews are based on my vibrant running ics tho.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shdw03:
Played with battery today. If I move it around I lose contact and phone turns off. May need to do wedge mod
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] neotoky:
I figured that would happen without wedging it. That guy in the other thread who bought it with perfect fit was real lucky.everyone else had fitting issues. The question is now, what is a good way to wedge it?

I have read cardboard, paper, credit card, collar stays, etc.

On second charge and on 16 hours with 50% left
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HB66:
i got my battery last night and it fit perfect. no need for a wedge or any alternation of the battery. sung case fit. now my wife's phone on the other hand may needed it, she has a prong that moves a little bit so the connection was not that great.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shdw03:
I don't think I need the wedge. But if I pushed to the right it would turn off. Better safe than sorry
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shdw03:
My last bat stats. Noticed that the last 20% went pretty quick
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Vlad_z:
What's screen time? (I see it eats 29% but actual time?)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shdw03:
Sorry. I'll get that info next time. Right now, my wife has my andida. Wonder what her stats are. Her phone is an sgs4g stock gb
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shdw03:
Here are from my wife's phone. Sorry not rooted so cannot take screen captures. Display was on auto.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Vlad_z:
I see, 2:30 display time and probably couple hours of voice calls and battery down to 30%.

I guess it's average. By spec. standard battery can handle up to 5 hours of display time or up to 6 hours voice calls.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Vlad_z:
Here is what I've got - stock but debloated KJ6, stock kernel, 1650mAh battery.

From 100% of charge down to 30% in 2 days and 4 hours. Average usage:

Screen time - 2:35 hours (internet, market, SMS, upload/download on WiFi and 4G)

Audio books - 3:14 hours (commute time)

Voice calls - about 20 min. (just like it said)

I did some experiments earlier and can get screen time up to 8 hours BUT when I'm reading books (4G, WiFi off and white characters on black background).

Or stand-by/idle time up to 7 days (in good reception zone with everything off but GSM voice)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] media_11:
The original ebay listing is expired. Does anyone know where can i purchase this battery? I googled but no luck.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] HB66:
Amazon has it
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] media_11:
They are out of stock on both Amazon and Ebay.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Caligula36:
This looks to be the same one. Has anyone else tried these batteries lately?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-X-Battery...523171?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4161503ee3
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kiri Neko:
?

so it will work in the stock case and with the galaxy s 4g?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cannondale0815:
This battery worked great for a couple of months... until I dropped my phone yesterday. Since then, this Andida battery is dead. I put the original battery back in and was happy to see that at least my phone survived.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] joedeveloper:
I just ordered and received my battery in the mail. I'll report back after I finish the standard 4 cycles to set it up properly.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vwgtiturbo1:
Anyone have any updates on this battery? Is it worth it?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Inquiring minds want to know :D

Had an extended battery for the g1 (needed the extended back cover, made it look funny :D), it was totally worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Fluidification:
there is another duplicate product up on ebay.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vwgtiturbo1:
Got mine in the mail today.. My battery came from Quebec, Canada. It's a 2300mah D710 battery. Fitment was perfect little snug but I was able to close the battery cover. Came with a paper stating the specs and recommending 4 full cycle charges before seeing full potential of the battery. Came with 68 percent charge and I topped it off to 100%.. I will update after the 4 days. If anyone wants logs of any sort or anything let me know. Hope I can help the community. Thanks to all you devs!!

I'm running

Valhalla Black FB's Edition (Build 3)

Antonx Basic with a Twist 1.1 rc2

1200mhz overclock with smartassv2 governor
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vwgtiturbo1:
Ok guys last night I completed my 3rd cycle charges unplugged it and went to sleep wifi off and it went down only 5% drastic change compared to my old battery. So far so good but will keep everyone posted after the 4th recommended cycle and will try to post a screeny with my battery stats later if it allows me to.. Stay tuned :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] geekilized:
Can you also post screen shot of them display time, please?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vwgtiturbo1:
This is a screen shot from use from yesterday before I put it on the charger... So far the 3rd cycle was best so far. Wifi is always on for the majority of the day and display brightness is set on auto.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Sario27:
I recently purchased this battery and this has been by far my best results. This was on my 4th and final cycle before I "supposedly" should be seeing results. This was with moderate use..

Here is a screen shot of lots of use still really good results, this was during my 3rd cycle.

FYI: For some reason every time my phone gets to 1% it will be there for HOURS with this battery.. Might be something wrong with my batterystats or perhaps it just refuses to quit!!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Did you try resetting the batterystats file yet? It might help with getting more accurate percentages.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vwgtiturbo1:
Thanks FB after clearing my battery stats I definitely see the difference in this battery. Running your VB build. I will post screenshot after this battery cycle. So far so good but I think it just got better.. Thanks to all you devs..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ReelFiles:
Just ordered one off ebay for $20. If this is really that good it will probably be the best investment yet for this phone. I'll post my results when I get it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I am curious if you received the new battery and have you tested it? I have the stock battery and I think it may be dying a slow(ish) death.

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
I'm also considering buying one of these but I'm not sure if I wanna spend any more money on this phone since I get a new one soon

Edit: just ordered one off of amazon for like $15 should be here sometime next week

Edit #2: battery just got here. I'll let you guys know the results in a few days
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
If anyone is thinking on getting this get it. I've seen a huge improvement and I'm only on the 2nd cycle
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
Are these batteries extended? Or are they normal sized?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
They are slim extended so they fit in the normal cover. It's just a little harder to snap the back on
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ReelFiles:
Get on of these battery covers, and it will be like a factory fit: http://r.ebay.com/BmuFXt

Loving this battery, played music for 8 hours straight at work and still had over 70% left.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
Well the problem is that i already have an otterbox
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
It fits with the stock cover so it will fit with the otterbox. I'm using my otterbox right now with the battery
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ReelFiles:
The otterbox will fit fine with the battery cover I linked, it's a battery cover not a case.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] soundwave123:
I just purchased two of these for my wife and I we both have the SGS4G. She is on Gingerbread and I'm on Cyanogenmod9. If you are interested in stats pm me otherwise I'll just reply with whether I had to shave/modify them to fit.:cyclops:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
I got two batteries: one for myself and one for my sister.

Mine is currently doing amazing on just the second charge.

Got it from this seller: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160744095182&ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:US:1123

The original seller that was mentioned in the OP has raised their prices ridiculously. They probably saw the crazy demand for it.

Also, as mentioned, no modification to the back cover was needed. You just need to snap on the top and bottoms first before snapping on the sides of the cover.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] goodintentions:
onlin increase increase the price like that when they are out of stock. they do this to avoid relisting fee.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] soundwave123:
Both the wife's SGS4G and mine had a perfect fit. We didn't shave or modify anything. Going on second cycle and so far its a no brainer upgrade like team acid rom vs stock rom :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] JeepLKW:
Just Purchased

Just Purchased this battery... I saw that the posting said for the Galaxy S II, but another user posted pics on this thread of his phone with the battery.

Good to know it fits and I'm hoping to have longer battery life with the battery.

Thanks for the information everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
It seems to be a decent battery. From what I can tell, the 2300 mAh claim is probably somewhat to wildly overstated. It is certainly better than my year-and-a-half old 1650 mAh original battery, and perhaps a bit better than my reasonably fresh 1500 mAh Samsung battery, but certainly not 1.5x better.

If I get bored I'll do a 0.1C discharge and see what it really provides.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
Let it settle in because I didn't start seeing good results until about a week of using it. I'm getting amazing results with it compared to my 1800 mah
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
I'm definitely not getting amazing battery yet, since I'm been hitting 1% easily everyday. I don't use my phone as much as I used to either.

Then again, I'm using AOKP now as opposed to Valhalla Black, so maybe that's why. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] shdw03:
on my vibrant... after normal day use, I'm usually at 30% or so. Off charger at 7:30am - 10pm

Using ICZen (aokp based) / subzero kernel
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
I wasn't getting great battery life on aokp either so I switched to barebones with an ics theme and get amazing battery. Yesterday I got 15 hours with heavy use and still had about 68% left
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] JeepLKW:
Recieved my battery

I got this battery in yesterday, It took some playing around with before I could get the contacts to line up. I ended up sticking a piece of paper on the left side of the battery to get it to line up correctly. I charged it up to 100% this morning and Its been doing great ever since. Usually by this time on the stock battery i'd be down to 70% or lower. I'm still in around 95% now with a good bit of use on it.

Hopefully this battery will last longer than the others.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bkoon1218:
Then maybe it is AOKP that's a battery drain then. I take my phone off around 9:30 AM and use it til around 12:00 AM. Around 15 hours or so everyday.

Can't complain about it, but I just had my hopes up, lol.

I'm not a heavy flasher either, so I don't really wanna test out the battery on GB.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
I would get between 10-15 hours on aokp which is fine but that was with light use now being back on gb I can use my phone alot and easily get over 20 hours
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tvotony:
Dose the battery fit the three prongs on the phone
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
Yes mine fits perfectly
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tvotony:
Thinking about getting one but I really don't see the need for the if your getting good bat life
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I ordered one and am waiting for it to come in. I don't get great battery life out of mine. I do use my phone somewhat heavily on some days and not as much on others. When I'm at home I have wifi on all of the time, which is draining. I also think my battery might be dying a slow death anyway. I don't get a day's use out of it unless I barely touch it. I'm hoping the 2300mAh will make a HUGE difference over the 1650 that came with the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tvotony:
Are you ordering from the link
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Apparently they are available both through eBay as well as Amazon
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] edgex:
I just got one of these phones off craigslist, and the battery takes like 3 hours to fully charge, and battery performance isn't very good, so I'm guessing it's the battery. Not sure if I should order one of these or a regular 1650 mAh battery. Both about the same price on Amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
Go with the 2300 mah
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I'd have to go back and look at the link in the thread. I ended up ordering off of Amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cybok0:
Can you post the link from Amazon?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006THW4RA/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00

I received the battery on Saturday. I'm going through the 4 charge cycles and waiting for the results.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I said I'd let you all know how this battery works so........

The battery went through all 4 full charge & discharge cycles. The phone has been on without charging for 25 hours & 14 minutes and there is still 23% left on the battery. So far I cannot complain about the battery life I'm getting. I'm certain I may have apps & possibly other things that are causing it to drain faster than it should but I'm very happy with this thus far.

I hope that helps anyone debating on whether they want to make this purchase.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
I think the mah rating is bogus like the other comments state on Amazon. It is more inline with 1800 mah battery or less. There is no way they can squeeze in an extra 500 mah without increasing the battery size. Unless they are using the latest polymer ion technology, which I doubted for this caliber and price. Don't get fooled. If it's too good to be true, it ain't so.

Get the Samsung 1800 mah or the large 3200 mah extended battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sutexibunsu:
I purchased two of these batteries (one for me, one for my wife), and both of them consistently deliver almost twice as much power as the stock battery (which is pretty convenient, as 1 - 2300 / 1350 = 70% increase over stock). And, if you read the comments, the battery is a little bit bigger than the stock battery. You will have a bit more trouble fitting on the rear cover (but it will fit). And I can't speak as to the long-term reliability of the battery, but it's been working well enough for me for the last two/three months.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
Yes, the battery is a little bigger, of which the same size as the Samsung 1800 mAh. And Samsung had already maxed the mAh out. If it could add another 500 mAh, it would had done so, because of the lucrative profit margin in battery business. Another point is that one of the commentators on Amazon also measured the mAh of this battery, and it turned out to be around 1600 mAh or so. If you get three negative feed backs in a row without any positive feedback, you ought to be wary of this battery.

But overall, this battery is still way better than the stock battery. I just don't believe it is really 2300 mAh. The highest mAh for the Samsung battery that I've seen so far is the one for the Nexus at 2100 mAh, which is still bigger than this 2300 mAh.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
This is a third party battery though. It's not from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] u170who:
I ahave been using this one for 3 weeks. i get almost twice the battery life, but my S 4G only lasts until the end of the day. i must have some apps that are killing it. i'm running AOKP 4.0.4 V6R3. I Drained and charged it 3x.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
You're running AOKP, that's the reason for why it's draining so fast. That ROM is notorious for having bad battery life
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Before you jump on the ROM, which, in my experience, doesn't have notoriously bad battery life, you are better to consider that this battery is more of a 1600-1800 mAh battery, no matter how it is labeled.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
I have the 1800 and the 2300 and there's a huge difference between the two.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
Definitely that there are mixed results about the life of this battery, which shouldn't be in the first place; for a battery life stated almost over 800 mAh over the stock, this shouldn't be the case. You should be able to tell the difference, but obviously not. Either people are experiencing the placebo effect or the battery is being overly rated. I think the latter.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] u170who:
It's not the rom, AOKP saves a lot of battery life compared to the other ones i have been using. I figured out it was probably Weatherbug. it was updating every hour and every time i checked my phone. I reflashed and the battery is lasting forever. People, don't knock the battery, it is a good battery. It costs the same as the 1800 and has much better battery life than the 1500, so what's the problem? The selling price is fair and the shipper gives good service. How much mah does the 1800 test at? I do not work for the seller or manufacturer, but a lot of the replies here just seem like they are being cynical just for the reason of being cynical. Life is short, live it well.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gs_0523:
I got mine a few days ago and these are my results after following the instructions on the box. Its only at 50% but that says a lot. I'm on the latest nexus beam ROM. Before I was lucky if I got 12+ hours of battery with use.

I had everything on, wifi, data, sync and some GPS. Brightness was at around 40% most of the time but so far I'm really happy with the results of this battery so far. Its also really great for the price and it arrived just 3 days after I ordered it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
From the screens, it looks like that you don't use the phone much. With the Samsung 1800 mAh, I get similar results as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
I've actually gotten similar, and even better, results with the stock battery. I had 48%, 22h, and 1 h 45min display time
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gs_0523:
Only time I got good battery life on the stock battery was on ravers Valhalla black. I use my phone a lot and I did notice about 25 to 30 percent longer battery time. I'm happy with the results.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tvotony:
More details on what you had on/off
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] galets:
I got the battery. Even though it's not bad, I got a better battery life on a stock one. Not significantly, but better, when expectation was to get slightly better life on the "long lasting" one. If we are talking bang for buck, the 2300 mah is still a good deal for the money, but at least in my case, it was not as advertised
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
That's weird because for me with heavy use on the stock battery I couldn't go the whole day but with the 2300 mah I could easily get through the whole day
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
This is a ~1600-1800 mAh battery. It is probably better than your stock battery because it is new and hasn't been run through high temperatures and deep discharge cycles as much.

That said, for the price, it is a decent choice.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] falcons2:
While I was using the 2300 mah I was using it really heavy and i noticed that it lasted way longer then my 1650 and 1800 mah. Either way I think its a great battery
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] ericmpanda:
So they are advertising it wrong???
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gregcapps:
Just curious how you arrived at this conclusion. I have been using this battery for a few days, and have not gone through the first 4 recommended charge cycles. Seems results are better than stock tho.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Capacity testing is often done using a C/10 rate. For a 2300 mAh battery, that would be 230 mA.

The battery range used by the phone is 3.6 to 4.2 V, 3.9 V midpoint.

3.9 V / 0.23 A ~ 17 Ohm -- 18 Ohm is the closest 10% tolerance resistor (5% or even 1% is better, but harder to find). 4.2 V -- 233 mA, 3.9 V -- 217 mA. 4.2 V * 0.23 A ~ 1 W

Hook up an 18 Ohm, 1 W (or more) resistor to the battery, it should take about 10 hours to discharge from 4.2 V to 3.6 V. (Do this out of the phone, with a voltmeter.)

Be warned that the resistor will get hot in the process!

If you get ~ 10 hours, then it is believably a 2300 mAh battery. If you get less than ~9 hours (10% tolerance resistor, plus the approximation of constant load), then it probably isn't a 2300mAh battery, at least under C/10 rating.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] IDisposable:
Don't confuse people with FACTS, man! :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gizmoscoop:
Whatever is the case, the Andida company and other after market companies like it are notoriously known to over rate their batteries on an average of 30% or so. Just Google it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Neo3D:
LG just came out with high density li-ion batteries, a billion dollar company with big budget R&D and guess what? LG's batteries are only about 10% increase in capacity when comparing same size batteries. No way this Chinese knockoff is 30% higher capacity in the same form factor.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Just had mine die entirely on me, in a way that the phone wouldn't boot.

Edit -- Yeah, totally dead, won't charge in the phone or in my Samsung external charger.

I can't recommend the Andida at all now.

Edit:

The battery charged later in the evening. It might have "shut itself down" for some reason.

On the upside, the eBay seller I used, luxuriespremier1, is standing behind the product without hesitation.
