Has anyone used the zerolemon 2300mah battery? I wonder if it is worth the $20 on amazon right now. Currently on my stock battery I get around 2 hours of screen time before I'm at 20%. Really would like to get more than that while keeping the stock battery form factor.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cgrugger:

I just got the set of 2300mah batteries. The shipping was super fast and they were well packaged. They come with a wall charger that also has USB power outlet. I forgot to check the specs on the charger before I left.

I'm charging one of them up right now and I'll get the 2nd going after work today. The directions state the need to initially charge it for at least 12 hours. That seems a bit excessive. Zerolemon also says that you'll need to do 5 charge/discharge cycles before optimum performance.

The only odd thing I noticed is that they recommended discharging fully every time. Everything I've read states that you shouldn't do that with Lithium-Ion.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizard10000:
I use a Spigen Ultra Nano protector; it doesn't go all the way to the edge and the ZeroLemon cover doesn't bother it. Worth a look -
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] src511:
That's actually why I mentioned it in the first place. Was just watching this youtube review of it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0CvDMN_QD4

Looks really good. Kind of tricky to place on the screen, like it's easy to get air bubbles but that's what the squeegee is for.

But it's about $13 by itself and more if you buy the pack shown in the video.

I bought this instead though because it's on sale right now and you get three protectors, a cleaning cloth, and dust removal tape. ALL FOR $5. Should be good.

Has anyone with a zero lemon 7000 battery done a wireless charging mood?

I'm getting my lemon soon and was wondering if the lemon buttery will get in the way of this mod, I haven't performed the mod yet but I would like to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hulk0069:
It may take longer to charge with the wireless.mod if you get it to work, highly doubt full bcuz if remembered you need to have the back plate which I don't think fits with the zero-lemon,I may be wrong.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] src511:
Haven't gotten mine yet but I think the best thing to do is use your stock battery during the day and then go to bed whenever you feel, remember when you fell asleep, count how many hours you slept, and then leave it charging for how ever many more hours it needs. Im sure you could leave your phone alone for a few hours...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cstrife999:
I own the 7,000 Mah one and it's great. Adds extra bulk but makes the phone feel better too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shawn01:
Been running it for about 2 to 3 weeks. Great battery life love this thing. Only thing is I think its kinda giving me bad service. Also when I see it goto 75 percent or whatever percent it goes up in charge when my screens off... Not a bad thing just weird. Anyone else deal with it?

my accuracy was a lot better with the stock battery. and it takes a little longer to lock on with the zl.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] marblesmike:
Have you tried tightening your screws?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] burntrat:
nah not yet. since the battery is already covering the crucial areas, would it help that much? i need to find me a small screwdriver and try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fatasian:
You don't need to remove the battery...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] burntrat:
i thought the battery was covering the gps area, which is why i thought the gps performance dropped. i only need to screw the 1 next to the led right? i dont have the perfect fit philips head screwdriver. i only have a small flat head and looks like the screw barely wants to move. feels like ill strip it if put in any more force.

man i think the tightening made it worse. im at the completely wrong house now.

From first discharge cycle. NFC works, haven't tested GPS.

Edit: GPS works fine. Also, I used quite a bit off screen app usage (tunein, sirius etc.) to go with all that screen time. The 7000 definitely seems triple stock.

I am also having major gps issues and a noticed a weaker cell signal too. Dropped several calls. I'm bummed cuz I had to go back to stock battery and everything works perfectly now. I will miss the extra battery life, it was amazing. But need signal and gps to work properly for me. On the plus side, I am back to a very thin and very light phone. Forgotten how thin it was...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] samprocat:

I will be selling my battery. Hit me up if you want to make me a fair offer. Otherwise it is going up on ebay this week.

Also, I am not complaining about the battery. Everyone is different, but it just didn't work for me. It may work for some better than others. The battery life was truly amazing. I just have issues with wifi gps and cell. As soon as I switched batteries, everything is perfect for me. I do admit that I know I live in a poor signal area to begin with so that doesn't help.

I would have to agree I really love the life of this battery but I have issues with gps and I don't use my gps that much but it is still nice to have in certain situations. I actually have great service in my area and have a lot of trouble with the gps.

Well this is disconcerting but I'm remaining optimistic for when I put mine in tonight. Only other extended battery that remotely close to this is the Mugen 4600mAh extended battery which costs almost $90. Would not want to have to buy that and compare the two to see which one is worth keeping.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sinker1345:
I used the anker 4400 mah extended battery and it worked quite well It is 20 dollars on Amazon and you can buy a case that fits the phone for another 20.

Reporting in on my experience:

Second day with ZeroLemon for the GS3 and it's totally amazing. It truly has tripled my battery life. Also, my GPS and Wifi are working fine.

My question for you all, do you actually drain the battery all the way to 1%? The (sketchy) manual that comes with says to do so, but from my knowledge and what I've read here How to Prolong L-ion Batteries - Battery University says a full discharge will more quickly deteriorate the battery. So I plan to recharge my battery everyday or two no matter what level it's down to.

I drop my phone like 3 days daily.. how is the case for it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizard10000:
I think you'll get best battery life keeping the battery between 20% and 80%. I generally put mine on the charger if there isn't enough juice in the battery to run it for another day; I'll take it to work if it's at 30% when I go to bed but much lower than that and I put it on the charger. Charging one of these things off my work laptop takes more time than I spend in the office :)

Best so far was 6 days and about 12 hours but there was only about three hours of screen time that week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] src511:
So here I am posting from my phone with the zlm7000 installed and everything feels fine.Underestimated how thick the phone was going to be, lol. But I don't mind. Feels good to hold. I put it to charge last night at 1am.and woke up at 9am. Let it charge for another 30 mins and then turned it on because I had to check something. It showed 100 immediately then 99 not to long after and now it's at 96. Battery Widget reborn says it will be empty in 9-10 hours...what is going on???? >_>
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sweeds:
Yeah that sounds about right. Everything I read says that discharging Lithium-Ion Batteries all the way is bad for the batteries health and lowers the capacity faster.

Thanks for sharing your input & experiences. :good:

It's actually quite sturdy. It's a semi-hard bendable plastic with fully-encasing bumper. It's less cumbersome than an Otterbox, but seems more secure than the hard plastic Seidio case I had on it previously. :cool:

Try clearing the battery stats. It may be the batter unit is fine, but that the monitoring chip needs to reconfigure.

Go to data/system/ and delete batterystats.bin and reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] src511:
Do you need to be rooted to do that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sweeds:
Most likely. I use Root Explorer which does. You could try a standard file manager. /data is on the top level.

Or you can do it in a custom recovery, but if you don't have root, I'm guessing you don't have that either?

Edit: Another option is an app I used to use called "Battery Widget Pro" has calibrate and battery stats in it.

I've had this battery now 2 months, and I can go three days with moderate use between charges.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sinker1345:
That's about what I get as well, I can get about a day with heavy use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] src511:
Same here. Just finished my first day with the battery :). I was under the silly impression that i could get two days even with heavy use. Maybe that is possible if I used less data intensive apps and rooted my phone to remove Samsung bloat, but twelve hours without needing a charge is still great!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Yakuzagang5:
Why do people still say to do this? All batterystats.bin is is the file that the battery section under the settings app uses. ALL IT DOES is record data, it has nothing to do with the battery chip (? Really?) and has nothing to do with how your phone reads battery levels.

Anyone who tells you otherwise either has no idea what they are talking about, or noticed a placebo effect. The problem is most likely that it wasn't fully charged, or as I've noticed with mine, the phone just has a hard time figuring out just how much battery is left. I constantly see mine drop a few% at a time(like 45% to 42%), then I'll check an hour later and have it reading 46%.

TL;DR deleting batterystats.bin does NOTHING in terms of reading battery levels.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sweeds:

Thanks for the insight. I did not charge for 12 hours before using it for the first time like they said I should. But I mean it's not like leaving it charging for 12 hours NOW will do anything right? I'm happy with 12-13 hours of heavy use but I'd like to stretch it if possible. And do most of you have your gs3's rooted? Should I take the plunge and just do it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Yakuzagang5:
Sorry, it just gets annoying to see that popup everywhere, then people do it and go oh my God it's incredible! Then the next day they're back saying ok my battery sucks again lol next time I'll leave out the jackassery.

I am all for rooting, I have mine rooted. It's just so much easier to do anything when rooted. I didn't have my ZL battery when I had it stock, so I can't say anything about a difference, but all I know is I have it rooted and am at 45% with 1.5 days off battery and 6 hours screen on time, which is almost all 4G Netflix with 90% brightness. But I would try and follow directions starting now the best you can, can't hurt lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] src511:
Thanks :). I'm going to speak with a friend of mine about rooting it. He'll probably do the whole root for me on account of me not owning a computer at the moment. Hopefully I find a easier rooting guide on here for it. This one I found on here by some seasoned xda user seemed insanely complicated. Probably even for my friend.

Do you live in an area that gets 4G? We're to using wifi often? Playing games? Downloading large files? Or did you barely use it? Light browsing. Fb, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Because with very heavy use I get 12 hours. Details are always helpful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nick7893:
I would definitely run a few more cycles and see how your battery life improves? What has been your screen time? Most people easily get a day or two on this battery with heavy use. I know I always get 2 days with around 11-13 hours of screen time.
