I hope for an original Samsung battery replacement with increased capacity like for the GSII. I don't trust these batteries...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Michael_P:
The only way to check capacity on this is give it full charge and run HD videos until it's dead and compare how long it lasts compared to standard battery.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Sure, but meanwhile I don't need to charge phone every day.

You don't trust? I'm only a user, but a 3600 battery for my old x10 lasts SIX days and 40 minutes. I have this battery from some months ago. From the same manufacturer than this 4300 battery. Not a gold battery. Gold batteries sucks.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Yeah! but i prefer to test the battery with a normal usage. Thanks for the info.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Michael_P:
Yeah it's just the actual capacity becomes very speculative when people test it in normal use because you never know if they actually using the same as other battery and if you charge before it's dead you never know how much is actually left because some batteries cut out at a higher voltage, plus I've known many people who buy a battery that's actually worse than original but don't want to admit to themselves or anyone else that they wasted their money, so personally I only really go off reviews that actually compare to standard battery.

Stock battery 18 hours MAX in a normal usage, always with H+ and sync on, opera mobile.....

I don't believe if you are using the phone like me ;D

Please, no spam. Thanks.

As explained, alf2 drains battery too much in deep sleep

PD: Your screenshot is a very very very low usage.

shorty1483, your screenshot is take in a very very low usage.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zetorrr:
I'm happy for your luck and I completely understand you ;) ! I hate charging the phone every night, and worse, for my usage I have to do it every day and a half -.- ...

I'm a perfectionist, so I'll wait patiently for Sammy's replacement :laugh: !
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ilordvader:
I would like to know this too :)

Please
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Ok, I try to do this test at second full charge.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Ok, here are screenshots. I think all is ok, but needs another full charge and calibration. Screen time is 5 hours and always using opera mobile with H+ and gmail app. Also take some pictures and two videos. And remember I've flashed another stock rom at 76%.

Phone not turned off at night. Only disabled data.

More to come after second full charge.

My normal usage is less than these tests and I hope to get 3 days without charging.

Thanks to all.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Diaze:
i get that with stock battery :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
I never get that with stock battery. Max 18 hours with 2 hours screen. Always sync on with H+, never wifi. Only 18 hours.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Ok, guys, I've found a big problem.

Samsung kernel does not charge battery at 100%. Neither at 99%

Phone reports battery charged to 100%, but RED led remains on for hours. Not charging at this point. if I remove the battery and put back again, phone reports 96% and starts charging again.

How to solve this problem?

I've flashed another kernel now, but I think that it's not the solution.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vasp3690:
How do you know this isn't a battery problem instead? I always used to have such issues with aftermarket batteries.

sent with WSGS3
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Because I have a 3600 battery for sony x10 from the same manufacturer and charges 100% with doomkernel and battery lasts six days.

And this happened to me with sony ericsson stock kernel...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rj3005:
It looks like Samsung is caring for batteries...

Lithium Ion batteries don´t like to be really fully charged (they are most happy at around 70%) by not constantly topping of the battery they greatly increase the useful life.

Solution for your "big problem" unplug the charger right after the battery charged message.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Then we need to skip this protection...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ghallab:
hi all

Hello guys. .. i've got the 4500 extended battery for SGS3 for a week now

It is really a great battery and it lasts for 3days with 6:30 screen on time

And about 1:30 voice calls with data on about 2 hours/day... it's really great.

But there is 1 annoying problem...the phone tells me that the battery is charging while it's 100%

I have turned the phone off for a day and still charging. Even if it is 100%.

So i don't know if this problem from the battery or from the phone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] stapbeest:
That becomes samsung charge there batterys to 4.35 volt to get to the 2100 mah. Aftermarket battery's charge to 4.2 volt thats why the red led not going to green.so if you buy an fake original you can see this by not turning the led to green what i have experienced.

Sorry for my bat englisch
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
I'm waiting for an external charger. Then the battery will charge full at 100% :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] MaverickCoast:
Would need new carrying case...

Only problem I would have with upgrading to a bigger battery is, trying to find the right size carrying case that will work with it. I like to use a (soft shell) type cover to protect my phone AND then put it in a carrying case. More often than not, it means that I have to find a new carrying case to do it. Buying online is the cheapest way to go, so you can't see if it fits before you buy it like you could at a store.

The increase in size with the new back cover actually looks pretty sharp, though.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ilordvader:
Is this charge in phone u mean or

External charger ?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Accessories] c0brabg:
With the bigger battery the phone looks like it's pregnant. I myself wouldn't sacrifice protection and adding more bulky space for more time. Smartphones are meant to be charged every day I doubt Samsung will be able to do something about it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] stapbeest:
In the phone also aftermarket wall chargers are charge to 4.2 so if you put your original battery it never charge full only if you have the original dockcharger from samsung because charging to 4.35 is to get the maximum out of a lithium batterry what only samsung can control every lithium charge only to 4.2 so its a nice trick from samsung so you can self check if it is a originalsamsung battery otherwise the led never change to green bij full battery
[Galaxy S III Accessories] richo27:
more battery > style, the phone is a tool not a piece of jewelery.

The phone is too thin and light standard, it needs some bulk so you dont feel like your holding a playing card and the battery life is dismal as usual with most stylish phones today.

Ill pay for a genuine 4300mah battery, i wouldnt expect much for $12 though.

Hi all!

Here are screenshots with a very heavy usage, charging battery with this http://www.todoradares.com/foro/showpost.php?p=230671&postcount=46

Screen usage 6 hours 10 minutes!!!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Ok, guys.

My normal usage, phone on overnight. 4800 mAh battery (white an blue battery) here are the images of this battery http://www.todoradares.com/foro/showpost.php?p=231781&postcount=51

4 days 14 hours :) (5 hours 10 minutes screen on). This time is after some complete charges.

Thanks to xda developers!

PD: With original battery I only get 1 day 7 hours (same usage).
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cybdani:
Sorry guys, I forgot a link to external charger with pictures.

It's a bit "tricky"... Charge 4800mAh battery into external charger (10 or 12 hours, until led is blue). Turn of the phone (i have another battery into S3 meanwhile charging another). Put charged battery into S3. Enter recovery and wipe battery stats. Reboot. As you can see, battery is at 95-98%. Charge battery until 100% into S3 (5 minutes). Done.

Please, developers, can you modify kernel to support these batteries?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SKyRocKeting727:
Oh. That's called recent apps, its only 6 icons instead of 12 and it was only on Gingerbread. So the only option is to flash back to gingerbread as most ICS uses a preview window type multitasking. I prefer the ICS one cuz the GB one really reminds me of iOS multitasking. ICS has icons too, how confusing can it be?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
confusing isnt the word, cumbersome is better. becuase like you said, i think it was only 6 that would show up. in using ICS, seems like it can hold about 20 or so apps,and you have to scroll though all of them to find the right one. I'd rather have just the icons as the OP suggested. you can see all the apps on one screen, rather than scroll your way to infinity
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpoirier587:
I like it better actually. Icons might be a split second quicker but ics version gives you a longer history.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] taboo_:
God damn threads like this bug me. OP doesn't like the new task switcher, asks a simple question of "can I revert back to the <GB task switcher. A few helpful sentences are given but mostly shielded in a bunch of implications that he's too stupid/confused to use the new switcher or people trying to convince him the new one is better.

No. The new one is crap. It's slow, cumbersome, doesn't show as much information on the screen as the old one and requires you to slide these massive tiles around to see things rather than just giving me all the information I want in one tidy little grid (and if you were running CM7+ you were able to make it show 6, 12 or even 15 icons). Do I expect you all to agree that the new one is crap? No, not at all, that's what having an opinion is about. But how about you spend more time actually listening to the OP rather than filling the thread with wasteful posts so when someone like me (or the likely thousands of other people that stumble on this thread looking for the same answer) don't have to wade through a heap of useless junk.

If you feel comfortable enough to mess about a bit in the innards of your phone, check if it's broken first, and i guess replacing it isn't that hard.

It works perfectly on my galaxy note using stock rom. Only Problem is the SHUTTER SOUND. I tried to turn on the option for shutter sound.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slhawkins:
Now that I think about it - there are a couple issues with the app.

1.) Called the same as Samsung's. I can see them having an issue with that.

2.) He's going to charge for the premium app - but I'm sure someone can/will port the S3 Smart Stay apk over. So it'll all depend on how much you get with that premium app..

Still a good effort though.

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
Have you tried plugging in the KF, uninstalling every single driver relating to Android (even samsung android drivers!), the KF, restarting the computer, and then running install_drivers.bat included in KFU?

The bootloop is very easy to fix - you're most likely stuck in the Recovery bootmode (5001), so having fastboot or ADB set your bootmode to Normal (4000) will solve it, but first you need to sort out ADB/fastboot, which are showing a drivers problem.

As a side note, this probably happened because you are using an outdated FFF/TWRP. When this is fixed, it's in your best interest to update to the latest version of each (1.4a, 2.1.1 respectively).

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
TWRP 2.0 included FFF, so you can use fastboot -

Issue "fastboot getvar product" and then plug in the KF, see if the fastboot driver is working. Otherwise, you're stuck on a driver problem again.

If it does list one device, then you can go with "fastboot oem idme bootmode 4000" and then "fastboot reboot". That should get you back on Normal bootmode and out of the TWRP bootloop.

Next would be updating both TWRP and FFF to prevent this from happening again, but there's the pending driver issue. I can't really add much more, other than carefully going through the post linked earlier, step by step.
