No it depends on overall usage of phone. I got 11 hours of SOT from a 5000mah better (Unu Case) while I've seen some with the 7000mah ridiculously big battery get the same, more and less.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] marcogtt:
If you are into sot statistic then its pretty simple. U averagely have 4 hrs of sot from the stock battery like me? Then you should expect roughly 75 mins more. Which is not bad.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Audioboxer:
Anyone try fitting a wireless charging card inside this case? With it being bigger than stock for the battery I'm wondering if it has enough room to fit a charging card without causing a bulge?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] KenIzz:
I use a Wireless charging card with mine. I think it actually fits better than with the stock case.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Audioboxer:
Thanks, could you check/post a pic to see if there is a bulge? Trying to find out if the waterproof seal is still intact.

If it is I'd much rather get this battery and a charging card than the official wireless charging cover.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] KenIzz:
There might be a slight bump under the Samsung logo but nearly as large as when I was using the stock battery and cover.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] 1454:
Same here. I use it with wireless charging and the buldge isn't near as bad as it was with the stock cover. I think it's because this cover is slightly thicker too. Personally, I like it so far. The only aggravating thing is no real cases out there for it.

To the og question, I'm not banking on its waterproof ability anymore. I can't confirm or deny whether it is still there though.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] konvalink:
Can someone be so kind to compare two back covers? Wireless charging cover vs. Extended battery cover.

Because I have this case with original wireless cover and I want to change for extended battery one and want to know if the cover will 100% fit. Thanks!

Edit: I have found the answer in this thread, yes it fits, so sorry for unnecessary post.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ricerocket00:
The first two charges were no better than my Zerolemon 2800. The third charge seemed much better. On the fourth charge today. The wording on the front of the box just sounds like something that would be on the package of a knock off. "Make Galaxy S5 battery for more power supply & extended using time"

I understand that this battery isn't supposed to be in the US yet (correct?). Where is this battery marketed? If it's not in English speaking countries then why is everything in English?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] spydc:
It sounds like you have doubts regarding its authenticity. I mentioned earlier in this thread that i wasn't exactly blown away by the performance but it did last a bit longer. Any reason why there isn't a water damage sticker on the battery? I always thought that was an indication of authenticity.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Elite49:
The UK and Europe?

The packaging is the exact same as the S3 OEM extended so unless its the perfect fake...
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] 1454:
I

Maybe it is authentic, maybe it's not. But I seem to be getting the as advertised performance so far.

This is the stock vs extended. This is with about 7-10 cycles on the extended.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ricerocket00:
I think I have found the perfect set up for the S5 (at least for me). Here's the set up:

Samsung 3500 mAh Extended battery kit, but not using the provided back

Standard slim back with the area where the battery is cut out so the thicker battery barely sticks out past the battery back

Qi wireless charging card

UAG black case

With the extended battery it is a bit heavier, but using the modified back, wireless card and UAG case, it is the size of a standard S5.

This was the setup I used on my S3 as well. Better battery life, wireless charging and no bigger than stock.

The only negative is that you lose the water resistance, which I had already lost since I took the charge door off my phone right after I got it.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] timeToy:
Pictures ?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ricerocket00:
Will have to dig out my DSLR or use my wife's phone. I'll get some pics and post them soon.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] 1454:
Have you thought about gluing the back cover inside the case to semi restore some of the water resistance? Not saying it's perfect, but it could give you a little more piece of mind about using it when it's raining an stuff.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] jonlad1:
Was anyone able to confirm if the extended battery was genuine Samsung?

The English used on the box looks a bit suspect :)
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] KenIzz:
Label on the back of the box.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] jonlad1:
Looks legit
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] poncespr:
Bumper case

I think this might fit with the thicker back cover.

I plan to order one with the extended battery soon.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] jonlad1:
That looks like a good setup, let us know if it fits well!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] bOkz:
This case looks awesome! Waiting for feedback if it fits with the extended batt.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Elite49:
So I get roughly an extra hour and a half. Around 5 or even 6 hours of screen time with it being on for around 3 days without a charge.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] 1454:
Sounds reasonable. Here are my numbers in a consistent service area over the weekend.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] 1454:
Nm
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Audioboxer:
Finally bought myself this, was weighing up wireless charging, but in the end it was a no brainer to have more battery life (don't want the waterproof seal broke).
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Elite49:
Yep, pretty much the same number here.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] israelien:
does it support the wireless charging back cover
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] 1454:
No. But you can use one of the inserts. That's what I do.

According to http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...ries/407177-galaxy-s5-magpul.html#post3822621 the Magpul Field Case S5 fits the Wireless Charging back and by extension the extended battery back, here are some pics:

Just battery

Is possible to buy just extended battery, without back cover? I want to buy spare one.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] cAase:
The battery is out in one of the biggest shops in sweden. So it seems official.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Chanz09:
Will quick charge still work with this battery? Can someone confirm how long it takes to charge to full.?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] timeToy:
Okay I got one of the Magpul case and it is NOT really fitting the extended battery. I mean, you can stretch the case to fit around the back cover, but it is NOT a good fit.

Not recommended.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Elite49:
Don't worry it is official.:victory:

Hi guys,

My extended battery arrived today here are some pictures to atleast prove the battery is genuine, i defaced my brand new battery to prove to myself and everyone else that it is genuine despite the dodgy english on the box. one plus point i also came across if you have a spare normal battery or the original it still works in your phone with the new back, albeit slightly loose but doesn't disconnect.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] MasterThiefGarrett:
Happy with it, Breezey?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Breezey:
It defiantly lasts longer, i actually prefer the extra bulk so its a win win for me really! was just worried it wasn't genuine when it arrived but the imprint on the battery proves it for me compared with the fakes I've seen in the past. Paired it with the Diztronic case for the wireless charging cover and I've actually got a phone I'm happy with so id say so :)
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] MasterThiefGarrett:
Well I have the Diztronic case, ordered it Dec. 25th, shipped out 26th and the 30th I got it (4 days shipping from the USA to the Netherlands :good: :good: )

I also ordered the battery kit, very curious what my findings will be. Although I'm using the Galaxy S5 SM-G901F (with Snapdragon 805) but the battery looks the same as the S5 I previously had ;)
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Breezey:
Thats not bad 4 days shipping! You should be happy with it but don't set you expectations too high as obviously its only a 25% increase in capacity, i just didn't fancy anything like the Zerolemon and wanted to keep the water resistance so this is perfect for me! as others have said it equates to about another 1.5 hours of solid usage. Its the standby where it makes the difference IMHO, if you forget to charge it one night you should be covered the next day if you use it conservatively.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Elite49:
:highfive:

Of course its genuine, you didn't have to do that to show anyone having doubts!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Breezey:
It stuck back down after so its all good, after all the xploding fake batteries you hear about i wabted to be sure for myself, got mine of ebay for £28.95 if anyones interested.

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] konvalink:
Finally, I tried my way of implementing wireless receiver into extended cover with 3500 battery. It was A LOT of sanding and some soldering, since my priority was no bulkiness and to keep water resistant. I used some slim receiver from DX, reduced from unnecessary stuff - even the "cross wire" in the coil had to be replaced by flat wire. I never used NFC so battery was able to be slimmer too. After 12 hours of working, I reached my goal :) Absolute zero bulkiness and tested waterproof!

Galaxy Charging Current showing 720 mAh. Cover Diztronic keeps the thin back cover in safe, I hope. Some pics:
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] :
Is this with the 3500 battery inside? The back case is the bigger one of the 3500 battery?

Thanks,
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] konvalink:
Yes, it is combination of genuine 3500mAh battery and wireless charging.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] schwift:
One thing I am noticing about some of the covers being posted is - the waterproof seal doesn't always look right. Yes same layout but a few the edges aren't as sharp, they are more curved. Issue? Probably not, but still something to consider.

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] slickdealers:
Does the Diztronic case fit pretty well with the battery and back?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] freddie813:
I tried to copy what someone had posted in this thread, where they cut the stock battery cover to fit with the extended battery. My intent was to put this combination in the UAG case.

The extended batter still protruded from the stock battery cover 1-2mm, and while it fit in the case, it did create a bulge and the case no longer sat flat on all 4 corners of the case.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Audioboxer:
You should set yourself up for custom jobs, I would pay you :P
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] no_biggie:
Hello guys!

I'm sorry in advance for my bad english.

I just purchased a Samsung S5 4G+ and I am very dissapointed about the battery life. I want to purchase a genuine Samsung extended battery but for some reasons I NEED to use a s-view flip cover. Do I have a chance of finding such a thing?

I would like very much to purchase this extended battery but it's no use for me eithount a flip case..
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] no_biggie:
No one?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] :
I don't know if there is a flip case bigger, for the bigger battery..

But if you are a "do it yourself" guy, you could bild it by yourself.

Someone some posts before posted a photo. He made a hole in tha case to the place where the battery is.

You could do the same to the flip case.

Now, the battery will be of the case 1-2 millimeters.. You could take a fiber carbon sticker, and do all the back case, to cover the hole.

I have already do this to a case (just to look prettier) and when i will buy a bigger case, i will do something like this, just to have bigger battery with normal case (and without make phone bigger)..

. Here a photo of my "carbomized" case of s5 (if I had done a hole to the case before put the carbon i could install bigger battery to this normal case). The carbonized phone is galaxy s2. I have actually put carbon and to s5 covering the silver casing, after it has been damaged because of a fall..

Hope it helps..
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] no_biggie:
Thank you very much for the reply, but sadly I'm not that kind of man, I prefer a standard solution.

It's a pity that Samsung created such a good phone but with such a bad battery. The 3500 one should have been the standard one.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] :
The original battery is not bad.. Are you sure your rom working ok..

Ofcourse the 3500ma is better
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] no_biggie:
Well, it is bad for me.

I had before a Samsung S3 mini, and this phone could hold even 4 days on a charge. Yeah, I know, the smaller screen, resolution, CPU etc, but all in all it was a more reliable phone.

I have the stock ROM for my phone, I dont think there are any problems there.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tudy88:
one question: Does the battery cover for this 3500mah battery creaks? i have normal battery right now and the back cover creaks and make very strange noise when gently squeeze the phone and is fixed well. And can i find on amazon a case for this new battery? thank you
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Breezey:
Its much more sturdy than the original case, I know what you mean about the original being creaky, this one does as any plastic will but not half as much as the original. Also I'm using the Diztronic case made for the wireless charging cover but it fits perfect!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] tudy88:
can you post some pictures with the case on the phone?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Lympe:
Just ordered this extended battery. I'll post some pics tomorrow
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] smurfeaters:
Not sure if im allowed to do this but unfortunately i moved on and used mine for the month if anyone is interested pm me.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] :
Here is my mod to use 3500 battery with normal, slim case for normal battery : I had "carbonized" the case for make it look better. I bought another normal back, and make a hole in it for the bigger battery. I used carbon to hide the hole, and for water resistant. In future i will lap the case to make it slimmer for the bigger battery, but i have already get the 3500 battery. But putting the case to phone was a bit difficult..

So the phone now has 3500 battery but same size as with original battery.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] BikerBoy030:
Nice pictures. May could you take a pictur from the side (without the cover)? How much does the new battery look over?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] :
I don't know if the pictures (with galaxy s2 camera) will help. I would say battery is out of the back cover about 1-1.5 mm. If i managed to install this fit small case, probably you can fit every case. If not, by trimming the case a little from inside will do the job.

Battery is very good, definitely suggest it. I have 1-1.5 more screen on time. Auto brightness, everything on, live wallpaper etc. I didn't expect it but i can feel that the phone is heavier. It doesn't bother me.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] BikerBoy030:
Thanks for the fast answer and nice pics. I would also love the combination of 3500mha battery and UAG Case, but I will not destroy the original back cover... I don't know what I should do. The original battery is pretty good. But for the last few days it is too small ( because of dungeon hunter5...).
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] :
I didn't distroy the original back cover either.. I bought another one to destroy! :)
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] mem4720:
I am using this battery with this wireless charging receiver. It's a bit harder to install the cover, but everything fits without modification.

3500 mAh Battery + Samsung OEM Wireless Charger FINAL FORM !

After a lot of iterations I have reached the final form of my Galaxy S5, I present you:

Integrated 3500 mAh Battery + Samsung OEM Wireless Charger into the Stock wireless charging back, with a slim metal surround and glass screen protector!

Looks great, It feels GREAT in hand, have protection all around, only drawback is the loss of waterproofing.

It is very easy, just use a guitar pick to pry the wireless charging tag out of the plastic back, go slowly around it "clicks" right out, carefully unglue the tag itself from the plastic waterproofing piece. You now have just a separated wireless tag, drop it on top of the extended battery, pad the rest of inside of the back cover with thick tape for comfort (so it is not squishy at the top and bottom).

I use this metail bumper: http://www.ebay.com/itm/331339258306

This one is great too, but feels a bit larger in hand: http://www.ebay.com/itm/191139203507 (WTF price, I paid $8.99 for mine!)

This one is sh1t (with the little bottom clasp): http://www.ebay.com/itm/261487114581
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ricerocket00:
I just received an Elementcase Recon Pro Black Ops case. Love it, but there's no way out would work with the 3500 mAh battery, which is a deal breaker for me. So, I took it to my mini mill, and machined out a recess so that the extended battery as well as the wireless charging card fit nicely in the new case! I really like this case!
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Sugarkryptonite:
Thanks. I have a CNC mill at home, too, so I have these capabilities. Do you think it would have been possible to mill out the entire back the same amount you did there to fit the full waterproof back that comes with the battery? I really don't wan't to lose the "waterproofness" of the phone.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ricerocket00:
I don't think so. I'm thinking that you would machine into the SBS chamber.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Ricerocket00:
Well, unfortunately wireless charging will not work with this case because of the aluminum insert in the back... If anyone is interested in this modified case, PM me. I doubt I'll use it much because of this.

Another question if someone tried to fit this 0.5mm WC receiver on top of 3500 battery with extended battery cover?

Mobile Fun has it ...

I live in the USA and ordered the OEM extended battery from Mobile Fun dot com website. I paid extra for the shipping with tracking and received it within a week. It works great, and it I get extended battery life even compared to new 2800 mAh OEM one that came with the phone. The battery door has waterproof seal and fits snug. I was able to somewhat get an Otterbox Defender I already had to work with it. I secured the two hard plastic halves of the case together with fishing line* and carefully stretched and worked the soft flexible cover over the lip of the front. The case does not snap together, but the fishing line holds the halves together. From the outside, it just looks like a normal Otterbox Defender case with everything where it should be including working power and volume buttons. However, you will need to find an alternative holster. I use a Nite Ize XL wallet case anyway.

*On the front half of the hard plastic case, you can run the line through the plastic loops. The velcro ties would also work.

It seems like this would protect the the phone better from front, back, and possibly side, top, or top impacts better than the thinner Tudia or Diztronic cases. The halves are held in place by the line and tight fitting rubber cover.

Please be careful. If you apply too much pressure when trying to work the soft cover around the hard, plastic frame, you could damage the screen or phone.

I do use micro SD but will transfer files using cables or adapter.

Note: I used PayPal and had no problems. This ships from outside USA, I think.
