Hey guys, has anyone been able to get the facebook contact pictures to sync in CM9. I notice facebook doesn't have the option to sync them and the other program I use on my other phones (Haxsync) is not compatible at the moment. Does anyone have some other way around this or an app that they use to get the pictures to sync.

Thanks!
[LG Nitro HD] BeatByte:
Just look in play store for an app called Facebook contact sync. Should be the first one.
[LG Nitro HD] rsalan:
I use syncmypics. Haven't used any others so I'm open to ones that sync higher Res pics.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
This looked like a good buy for me. 5200 extended battery for under $10! I used promo code SAVEMORE and got an extra discount plus its free shipping 3-5 days. I will post more when it comes in.

extended battery 5200mAh
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] justinmcnairy:
I'm plan on order that. I will give review on here once it come. Thank!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
Got the battery in today, going to do all full charge and clear the battery stats. Looks good and fits nicely I posted a question in the Q&A looking for an app to test the battery, I would like to know if its really 5200 mAh.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] k1an.n3atg3ek:
is it chinese-made? i really don't trust these kind of battery but will wait and see your review on this battery
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] keilbaca:
I'll wait for the review too. I killed my battery at work today, and I definitely need to get something like this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] deliriousbb:
hate to be cynical, but a good percentage of the after market batteries are China made. Only the high end batteries are made from Japan. Even the OEM batteries are technically made in China. (even tho they like to write, "Designed in...." another country. Take Apple for example. or Samsung):p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cergaster:
battery

The picture of the battery from the link you posted clearly says "made in china" I'd still like to know how you make out with this though. I think i have a defective battery from samsung because i don't seem to get nearly the time as everyone else seems to get on this site
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] toxiciti:
Thanks so much for this link. However, I'm skeptical since it's so cheap. I'm gonna wait till some other order this and review it. I've always paid way too much for extended batteries from seidio for my former EVO phones and am tired of it. So I'm gonna watch this closely.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
I have kept my GPS ,Bluetooth, data on all day. I watch over 2hrs worth of videos and been on the internet all day. I charged it for the first time last night and I want to drain it 100% today. 16hrs of extra heavy usage and I still have 11% of battery remaining.

Cons - cheep back cover very thin plastic.

Will update after a few days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
I presume this is the same cheap battery that's floating around multiple sites... has no NFC correct?

Edit: for less than 9 shipped, bought one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sdc177:
Where you located and how long did shipping take?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
AL and it took 4 days
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
I order one and will report back but looking at the pick it appears to have nfc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
I noticed that in the picture after I commented and purchased it. Not that it matters, since I currently don't use NFC.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
Yes it has NFC connection. After 2 days without charging I am at 2% I am very pleased with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
More importantly...what's your screen on time look like?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
Just received mine today... the back plate doesn't quite fit correctly. The right side of the back plate doesn't clip in flush.

EDIT: after some aggressive pushing the the backplate it seems to have all clipped in. For less than $9, I can't complain on the fitment. Its pretty impressive. I'll report back in a few days after the battery has cycled to show results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Ordered this also. For $10 shipped it's worth a shot. The tough to install back cover seems pretty common in these bargain extended batteries, but if it fits who cares. If it works as well as I hope it will, i will consider modding my Seido Active case. With the right application of heat and cutting, I may get something to work. Said it's shipping from their international warehouse whereas the other batteries I ordered for wifes tmo exhibit2 are shipping from stateside warehouse. Was hoping for fast delivery but that's out the window.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
I will say this battery is pretty good so far. I'm at 17% battery and at around 5 hours screen on time. Full sync, all location setting on except GPS, etc. Not trying to save battery at all.

Does anyone notice the battery jumping up slightly? Sometimes it will go from 30% to 29%, then back up to 30-31%. Gonna ride it out till its completely dead and recharge.

Sucks that I have no case on it, so I ordered an aluminum bumper.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
My phone was doing that on the first battery drain. After I wiped the battery bin I have not seen it again.

My last test was an 8 hr road trip with navigation on the entire trip. My battery level went down to 25% after 8 hrs of GPS full brightness and no charging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
You wipe the battery stats in recovery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Thats some serious use. Wish mine would get here before my drive to florida over the 4th holiday. Would be fun to really test it out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
I used this app.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
Oh thanks, I used to use that same app on my atrix. Had a lot of battery issues when flashing multiple rooms. I flashed easily 50 or so builds lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
I was surprised on how fast my order was delivered, it only took a few days. It was shipped from NY I think or some were within the USA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
I wish, but mine is coming interneational outside the states. But for $12 for two batteries (mine + wifes POS exhibit 2) who cares how long it takes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
Todays my 1st full day with the case/battery.

Case is a poor fit.

Nfc not working.

But battery is at 28% after 9 hours and change.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
Have you wiped your battery bin? I got over 8 hrs using navigation the entire time. Your 9 hrs seem like a fast drain but then again I am sure since this is made in china no two batteries are alike.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
I did wipe the battery stats in recovery and used the app mention in this thread for good measure.

I'm pretty happy with with the prefromance going on hour 11 and still not in the red yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
This was a light day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
Her's some fit and finish photos
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
The Hyperion Samsung Galaxy Note Extended Battery HoneyComb TPU Case does work with this case
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
8 hours would not be a fast drain if he was on it for 6 hours screen time... screen time is the most important factor imo..at least that how I judge these.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] aj_vogtman:
Got mine in a few days and I'm very happy. Based on the battery graphics I believe it's the same make as my other extra battery. That one is as good as the OEM. The door fits perfect on my extended battery and it was easy to custom cut a gel cover.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
Did you happen to test the NFC? maybe I just got a bad case
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
what rom are you running?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
I just swapped to different ROM, but I had been running (CyanogenMod 9.0.0 RC1 -UNOFFICIAL- KANG) for the past 30 days. Great ROM
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] aj_vogtman:
I've never used that feature.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
How would you test NFC on our phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BoOsT:
Could we get a side shot to see the thickness and looks with the case on it? How thick is the phone compared to something? Like a deck of cards or whatever it my be.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
Another phone with nfc. tap them together

Yoy should see the option to send youtube video or browser pages

:cowboy:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Seems like this battery isn't a bad deal!!!! The only thing keeping me away is how big it is..

Can anyone tell me if it is annoying or tolorable ???

I get very busy so something like this would be nice thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BoOsT:
Too big for me. I bout the (2) 2700mAh Anker with the charger.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
I like it with the Hyperion case. It's about as thick as running an otterbox case. It's worth it not to be a slave to plugging the phone in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sholsten:
I got in one of these big battery & case today. It was 63% when I put it in. It's running down slowly. it is bigger & heavier but I'll deal with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Thanks for the info ...ima go order one now :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Hey guys I'm using Google crome and I went to order and a warning popped up saying something about bad certificates and such.....order anyway? Or what lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sholsten:
I ordered mine from eBay.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
I had no issues
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] otter23:
Opened link with google chrome and no warning.

Make sure the time is correct on your pc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
I don't have a working PayPal :/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
Yup same here. Ignored and ordered. Arrive earlier than expected.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Ohh so its all good to go??? Nice anyone rocking this with the white note ??? That's what I have ...my phone might look weird idk ima order it anyway idc if it looks like half an Oreo lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] notown775:
I murdered a case to make a custom one.. thanks for taking the plunge.

get an iPhone, NOTe gonna happen
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
Yeah I posted battery stats already a few pages back
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Alright finally ordered mine :) I'm guesiing it will take a lil over a week to get here
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] BInspirinG:
Totally noob question, but: What is the material called for the battery cover?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MastahOnetrack:
Thanks for the info

Ordered mine in, I need a lot of battery power.. are people using this without a case? I'd still like to have a wallet style one, but I guess having the little kickstand at the back wouldn't be too bad.

Thanks for the tip
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
The one you ordered has a kick stand????? Or are u talking about your case
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
anybody have ebay links to the battery in question?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
Here is a code for 15% off only 5 peoplecanuse it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
I wish u has this when i ordered a few days ago lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
I put a code on the OP. Savemore
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Mine should be here any day.now

Its been 5 days :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SpaceToast616:
Anybody have an issue charging it after the first drain? Do I need a 2amp charger or should any charger work?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] aj_vogtman:
[/COLOR]

No charging problems. Using half a dozen different generic types. Takes a long time to charge because of its size.

As always a Samsung Car cord charges twice as fast as most PC sync cord combos. http://tinyurl.com/d2jod7j
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SpaceToast616:
Thanks for the info. I let it die, and had it plugged in for close to and hour and a half and it still wouldn't turn on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] aj_vogtman:
Is the charging graphic showing? If not you have to trick it with another cable maybe the stock one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Hmm mine still isn't in yet.. :/ I'm hearing the cover doesn't fit ..but also hearing it does fit just got to man handle it.

So I'm assuming it fits?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SpaceToast616:
Mine fits it does take a little man handling to get it to stay in properly.

And I finally got it to work. The charging graphic wasn't showing but I did get it to turn after awhile today and now its charging properly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] capnoob:
I found the same type of battery here:

http://www.dealextreme.com/p/replacement-3-7v-5200mah-extended-battery-pack-back-case-for-samsung-i717-i9220-138965?item=2

They have white and black. I've already ordered - i'll report when i install and test.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Dam they have white?!?!?!? I have a white phone and ordered the black version cuz the site I tried didn't have that color
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
$14 on that site
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
I only paid 9$ so I can live with my looking like a half Oreo
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
plastic.

Got mine in when I got back from vacation. Charged it up last night. Just did a stat wipe and now running Juice Offender to drain it on my desk to expedite the stat time. Monitoring progress by occasionally flipping from the bright white screen to Juice Plotter It'll be interesting what it's capable of doing under full load. (JD is disabled)

It's been going 15 minutes and is down 16%:

Vibrating

Wifi

CPU Load

Screen Brightness

GPS

LED Flash

BT

This combo should drain it pretty fast. It zapped my OEM in no time.

1st Edit/Update:

1 hour into the forced drain at full tilt and am currently at 77% capactiy. If this curve continues in a somewhat linear fashion (not likely), I should see 4 hours of all out beyond power use, which is quite impressive.

2nd Edit/Update

2 hour mark and I'm at 55% capactiy.

3rd Edit/Update

3 hour mark and at 27% capacity. Surprised at how consistant this appears to be. LED is on, screen on bright white, and vibration is going constant and this thing is still alive.

4th Edit/Update

4 Hours and she's almost dead folks. At 5% remaining. Curious how long the last 1% and 0% will last as sometimes it goes fast and sometimes seems to last forever, especially 0%

5th Edit/Update:

Just shy of 5 hours and it powered off. Absolutely amazing results considering the load that was being ran. The down side is I only have an hour to charge it back up for my commute home. Will post up some screen grabs later this afternoon/evening.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Kool kool thanks for info!! Its been 6 days and no item yet :/

I never used extended batteries before ..so just completely drain it first then fully charge it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Mine (and many others) came partially charged. Mine showed roughly 40%. You want to wipe your battery stats when 100% charged, so no point in discharging first. Charge, wipe stats, drain to dead. Then charge and drain completely 2-3 times without any supplemental (partial) charging to get the most accurate baseline stats. After that press on with life as normal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ddochi11:
I ordered on June 25th, and I got it today. 14 days. Not bad.

I am in Vancouver, Canada.

I will drain the battery and charge it up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
I'm in the states so it will probably be just as long
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
We're in the same region so you'll probably get yours in 1.5-2 weeks from ordering, assuming it comes from the same warehouse and encounters similiar mail traffic volume. Others got theirs really fast but it seems at one point they were shipping from stateside distro points, and now they are gone and coming from international distro points.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Ahh I see alright thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] iStatiK:
Just ordered one. Will report back also.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] omniphil:
How long did your OEM battery last during the same test for comparison?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
1.5 - 2 hours. But that isnt a fair comparison as it was done under a different ROM and didn't have a fresh bat stat wipe. I just flashed a new ROM this morning so I'll have to burn the battery down again so I'll do the test again soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] omniphil:
Excellent, thank you for taking the time to do all this.. Much appreciated!

Its also nice to see batteries that are actually what they claim to be, unlike those stock size batteries claiming over 3000mah, lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
I do it while sitting at my desk at work. It sits in a dock so since I got tired of trying to explain why my phones seems to be going haywire, I just started making up stories like:

"uhh..your phones light is on and i think its buzzing.."

"oh yea, it's a new app im trying out. Combines facial recognition with motion detection. The light turns on and the phone buzzes any time someone is looking in my office, pretty cool huh?"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] omniphil:
Lol, that will keep people guessing...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mv1luv:
I just opened mine up to c two smaller size battery's inside a plastic cage I was hoping to see the mah marking on them but no luck. Mine don't last that much longer than the stock one.. idk I guess I need to stress test them both. But mine doesn't survive longer than 6 hours with brightness on auto. Bluetooth on playing slacker and heavy internet usage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Did you wipe your stats and do a couple charge/discharge cycle or three?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
He probably didn't cycle the battery or wipe stats
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
I've actually read that wiping the stats does nothing. After each recharge, android actually wipes the stats.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
I usually don't wipe stats actually but a lot of ppl recommend it...idk about adriod doing that IMO I doubt it honestly ...but that battery needs to be cycled properly to be efficient
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/

Just because people recommend it, doesn't mean it actually works...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mv1luv:
Actually i gave it plenty of time to break in.. i ran it for about a week and a half.. it lasts me 6-7 hours the way i use my device. Its not bad but i dont think its worth it for me to turn the device into a tv thats what people refer to it as.. or they just laugh.. seems like with my anker 2700 mah i can survive the day (8 hour shift) if i stop to plug in for about an hour.. same results. Idk. I really need to stress test them both

My biggest gripe probaby has to be the hyperion case i put on the extended battery the volume buttons are so hard to find and to press. I have this cheap tpu case on my regular battery that just feels so much better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Interesting. Will have to read up on that. I just skimmed the article earlier. Perhaps it's been a placebo effect, but wiping bat stats and cycling has always seemed to help when done occasionally.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
Umm who said I said it works.???? I said I don't wipe stats lol I was just trying to give him all options to help him out.....

I defently don't wipe stats and I haven't since my last phone and only did it twice with no improvments .

I never said I recommended it....I said a lot of ppl do....I said that because I have no clue WHY they do when it doesn't work...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mv1luv:
I'm selling my stuff if anyone wants it? Look in the marketplace
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
This battery works better and longer than an anker battery...if cycled right..

Idk why it won't for u ..but I think its on your end ...not the batteries
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mv1luv:
It does work better but honestly not by that much.. but that's just me maybe I got a bad battery or something killing my juice on d phone Idk? Either way Im selling everything I have two of these.. ones brand new never even mounted

Don't mean. To hijack nobody's thread k.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jes24cap:
Not sure how your going to sell it? Its only $9 on the site with shipping. Its going to cost you more than $9 to ship it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mv1luv:
Its a bundle package of 2 extended life battery's + the cases. Also a Hyperion case. A yooboa case and an eBay case with a built in kickstand.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] erick161:
I never said you recommended it. You said people did. A common problem is people regurgitating stuff and others start passing it off as accurate. Basically if you wouldn't do it, or feels its helped you...why even mention it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Can we stop nit picking here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] armyboy11b:
In case they want to try it??? Who gives a fck?? Just drop it ..I care less

Have a nice day
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] iStatiK:
Back on topic....love this extended battery. Top of back door is perfect for "finger resting" while typing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Killgannon:
How much does this increase the thickness?

---------- Post added at 05:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 AM ----------

Nevermind found it on the website links in op sorry
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ddochi11:
I just came back from a 2-night camping trip. I had both stock battery and this extended battery fully charged for the trip. I left my house at 1PM with 100% on extended battery. My usage consisted of 2-hour drive with navigation, several phone calls to my other camping buddies and texts. Once at the camp, I had the phone on until I went to bed at 2-3 AM. We were in the middle of a thick forest, but I still had 3 bars, which is more of a testament to Telus service, so all necessary phone calls for all the campers (20 people) were made with my phone. I took pictures and videos throughout the entire trip. At around 5 PM of my second day, I was at 6% and I switched to the stock battery at 95%. The stock battery was at 21% when I got home around 11 AM on the third day.

So, the extended battery definitely performed up to its billing as 5200mAh suggested. Very happy with the purchase and its performance.
