[Captivate Accessories] taKuto555:
mine came in today, took about 3 weeks thanks to canada's superb shipping delays for anything from china, sadly it was the non-fitting one. I got impatient when I tried to look for how others were modifying this to fit so I just went right into destroying it. I just ripped it apart, found two battery packs held together. I just hacked up all the plastic, offset the top battery pack position a little to fit the cover. I had to remove and solder the ground wire connecting the battery packs since I couldnt get the connectors to stretch in the offset position.

Wrapped it all back up nice and sloppy. Checked proper continuity for each connector, threw it in and now just waiting it to charge up to full :)

edit: now I see how that thread about modifying the battery, it DEFINITELY did not work for the battery I received. Compared to the thread, the plastic case was not that thick at the bottom area to cut off. When I cut that piece off (which was probably 1mm, compared to the thread's pic that looks like ~3mm), the battery would still not fit, it was required for mine to shift the top battery pack in order for the lid to close.
[Captivate Accessories] justDave:
That sounds awful. Please post pictures (make sure to include the standard "do not try this at home" disclaimer)!

The pack I got was padded with a plastic spacer at the bottom which was really simple to remove. No offsetting of batteries or soldering required.
[Captivate Accessories] tkjeeper:
I got the same pack. The two packs together are even at the bottom, I'm to the point it sounds you were, ALL the plastic removed. Haven't carried it any further than that for now. Let me know how it works out.
[Captivate Accessories] pewpewbangbang:
omg shipping is so effing slow...........week 3 it better arrive like tomorrow.

Does it come in like a singapore package or something?? I got an e-mail saying its shipped out of singapore post office instead of hong kong.
[Captivate Accessories] AReynante:
Not promoting a seller, but for future info, transcend is now selling the updated, step down, battery. Its one of the top items if you search for an extended battery on ebay
[Captivate Accessories] nickm50:
I got that same email. Still waiting for mine as well.
[Captivate Accessories] TRusselo:
transcend is the seller ive been waiting for..... uhg!!!!!!
[Captivate Accessories] jev3gs:
Now you can see how I destroyed my original battery also. When I took it apart there was no way I could just trim the plastic and it would fit. I dont think you would have been able to even close the slider on the door.
[Captivate Accessories] jev3gs:
I bought mine on the 16th and got the first package las week on Wednesday I believe. The correct battery took 3 more business days.
[Captivate Accessories] pewpewbangbang:
Mine shipped/ordered on 20th.......hopefully it comes anyday now preferably tomorrow lol
[Captivate Accessories] AReynante:
Well based on previous people, mine should arrive on the 19th. Oh well. I'd rather wait the extra week / week 1/2 than pay a ton more
[Captivate Accessories] TRusselo:
yeah i ordered on the 12th havent seen either batteries
[Captivate Accessories] tkjeeper:
Ok, I pursued it a little further. Removed the coatings on the battery completely. Of course discovered the two packs double sided taped together and soldered strips attaching them. Gingerly sliced between the pack to separate them enough that I could offset the top battery up enough that the back would fit yet not too much to detach the soldered strips. Monkeyed around with the top contacts that connect to the device to make sure we had proper conductivity and taped everything back up tickety boo. In the device charging now at about 65%. Will see tomorrow how it holds up. Problem is right now that I'm laid off so I have no REAL normal days to judge battery longevity on. I'm doing a lot more heavy use now than I would ever do. The day I was gone for the day and got some normal (for me) use out of the phone I was more than happy with battery life. But I'll do my best to see if I can tell if there's a difference.

[Captivate Accessories] TRusselo:
just got an email from trancendershop off ebay...

they didnt ship till the 22 of march, i purchased on the 12th. they also told me they fixed the wrong battery problem before shipping to me. Probably why it took so long to ship..

so... im only getting ONE correct battery.... BUMMER!! i wanted to mod the wrong one to have 2. LAME!!
[Captivate Accessories] tkjeeper:
Hehe, something is wrong with us when we would rather have something we can fawk with and make work than something that fits perfectly. Where's the fun in that I guess. What's life without challenges and the occasional desktop fire!
[Captivate Accessories] TRusselo:
especially when i have 2 OEMs and wanted 2 extended...

i was thinking about a tripple cap...
[Captivate Accessories] tkjeeper:
I'm hooking my jeep battery to mine. Sorry, back to the point of the thread.
[Captivate Accessories] taKuto555:
It's a safe assumption you'll be waiting 2-3 weeks minimum for it to arrive if you're in canada and ordered from china. Mine took 2.5 weeks. I've had small $5 items from china take 5 weeks! I buy more from hong kong sellers now since it usually arrives quicker compared to china.

When I had it fully charged, I wiped the battery stats and charged back to 100%, so i'm guessing that it's somewhat accurate. Just tried out with the battery and was at 85% in 4 hours with moderate use. Definitely an improvement from OEM for me, I usually would be around 60-70% just idling.
[Captivate Accessories] domtra:
I just received the wrong 3500 mah battery yesterday...

I wiped battery stats...charged up to 100...

In a little under an hour of usage with about 20 minutes of display...I an already down to 93 %

I'm not sure what you interpret from that but I think that's awful so far.

The seller shipped the correct battery today. I highly doubt it will be any better then the first.

Hope this helps
[Captivate Accessories] TRusselo:
your first charge after wiping batt. stats will always seem weird.,.
[Captivate Accessories] domtra:
Ya that's true...

It charged very fast too...took about 5 hours to fully charge which is definitely incorrect
[Captivate Accessories] TRusselo:
batteries dont come empty though/
[Captivate Accessories] nickm50:
And depending on how long it has been sitting, it could take a charge cycle or two to wake it up.

Just wanted to see what everybody was going to get after owning their Epic, if y'all ever do want to leave it. I know many people absolutely hate Samsung after owning the Epic, but I still think they make great phones minus the plastic they use. So what will y'all be getting next, or will you just jump ship on Sprint all together?

But on topic I will most likely be going to the Nexus S, just because it's a Google phone, that or stay with my Epic. But if the Evo 3d is really 3d I might not get it. Not really wanting that feature. Actually really confused on what to get ha

[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
I don't see a reason not to get a phone just because it has a feature you don't need, just disable it...

But IF the Evo 3D turns out to be the Optimus 3D with the OMAP 4430 then that is what I will get, otherwise I'll hold out for a phone with the OMAP.

I'm swinging towards getting a Nexus S too as soon as it drops... I can't stand some aspects of this epic
[Epic 4G General] flopez76:
I know ALOT of people say the Nexus S is basically another Galaxy S phone, but most Nexus S owners say its a completly different phone. So I think I'm going to get the Nexus S and test it out and see how it performs against the Epic, and go from there.
[Epic 4G General] dchawk81:
I'll know in October 2012. I may not even want a smartphone at all.
[Epic 4G General] arashed31:
Not a Samsung for sure. To be honest, I really thought that the Epic was the best of the Galaxy S phones. And with all the hype and advertising money behind it I thought for sure a ton of devs would get an Epic. Well that hasn't really happened.
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Well the internals are the same.... but it's a whole different approach to the OS and hardware.

It doesn't have Gorilla Glass, doesn't have an SDcard slot, and it doesn't have some of the other tell-tale signs of SGS hardware.

It's actually most like our epic though than other US SGS phones. It at least has a flash and a FFC (If you use it.... I find it a useless feature on my epic, purely useless). It doesn't have the keyboard, which is actually 100% a benefit for me. I hate how my Epic feels and I know I'm not alone in saying that my epic has a loose screen because of the sliding mechanism.

Honestly the way I see it is that the Nexus S is a slightly different version of our phone, with a little bit more durability because of the lack of keyboard and a lot more longevity because it's a direct from Google supported phone. That's the real kicker for me... I've spent hours trying to make my phone less like an SGS and more like a normal Android phone. I'm running a rom without a trace of TouchWiz, I have had launcher pro installed since the very first day I got it. I have a Gingerbread theme to make it feel less Samsung based and more AOSP-ish.... I don't want a single thing that's related to Samsung that isn't direct AOSP. That's why I think the Nexus S will be perfect for me.

Oh and did I mention AOSP and no keyboard? ;)
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Whatever I buy it will have a PowerVRSGX54x graphics chip. Has anyone seen the benchmarks from the iPad2? Holy ****. Yea, I will be staying away from any Tegra 2 device, what a bust that was. I mean completely outclassed within 2 weeks of launching on a mass market tablet. Ridiculous.

Just for those wondering, our epic is basically an iPad. Almost identical hardware. So I will be looking for a phone with hardware similar to the iPad2, or the true sequal to our Epic4g.

^^^LOOK AT THAT LINPACK SCORE^^^

You can't compare Linpack scores across different operating systems.

[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Probably not, but damn even comparing it to the original iPad its a crazy big improvement. Nothing close to that big of a jump has happened going from a single core to a Tegra 2 on Android.

+1 i think we have just scratched the surface of what is possible on this phone....it'll be awhile before i upgrade unless sprint AMAZES me with something.
[Epic 4G General] drizek:
Not buying a new phone, it's a waste of money at this point. I really don't see what is wrong with the epic.

Already bought an iPad 2 thoug, should be here in a couple days. Ive found that while the epic might have nice hardware, running apps and games on a tablet is much more fun. I don't really see the point in getting a phone with a super fast gpu if I'm just going to end up playing simple games on my phone and 3D games on my tablet. Same goes for other specs, I don't like web browsing on a 4 inch screen. It was fun for a while to be able to browse the web with a pocket device, but i just don't do it all that much.

From what I can gather there are 2 ways to tether (without buying tethering option), changing the APN or by rooting and running appropriate programs. I have a grandfathered unlimited plan so tethering would be great, but I'm not gonna pay extra for a tether specific plan. AT&T terms of service says that doing so will result in charge/termination...but how do they check? Changing the APN can be read (at least on an iphone, from what I read), not sure about rooting. Can anyone explain how data transfered during tethering by changing the APN will appear to the network vs a rooted tethering system. Also what is with this 5GB soft cap, I've read and believe BS.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Verysafety:
Uh, I used my captivate w the USB tethering app from the marketplace just fine. Never got billed additionally.

Iphone4 and APN detection vs website red flag, pdanet?

Question: I have an iPhone 4 mod with 4.3.1

Was on a lot recently in last month - 5-10 g possible downloads- got the death message from AT&T . Will charge if I don't reform ways. ( feel like some kid) what bs! Have unlimited data plan. I

I use an HP mini laptop with win 7 starter OPS, I am tethering (wireless),

Guy who jb my phone - said that detection happens by - when tethered- when downloading either by choice or by auto update - programs like flash player and adobe PDF , Microsoft windows , AT&T sees download traffic and flags as obvious tether for laptop thus their 'unauthorized'tethering traffic going on.

Is this the case- not APN ISSUE?- site location issue?

I oftentimes use remote tethering to downloading and updating data files on programs that are native to both desktop and iPhone to exchange data. I need tethering - don't need limit to band width nor 45$month charge.

If monitoring locations what steps needed other than obvious -not downloading flash updates nor adobe reader updates while online? Problem is I have quit a few programs- can't seem to completely be free of auto updates- adobe is not allowing pure manual update preference setting-to set on auto update feature.

Also does pdanet work as stated??

PDA net doesn't shield site location just APN's?! Correct? What is ideAl settings to

Max out protection . Thank-you

[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
I know. It really tickles me when I hear people complain about not being able to tether or being caught for tethering. And ATT is the bad guy here?? You have never been allowed to tether on ATT without a tethering plan. FACT. Unlimited data is not unlimited. FACT. Even on the prior unlimited plan there has always been a fair useage policy of 5GB. Anything over 5GB is considered excessive. For the most part it has been overlooked by ATT.

The only BS here is those that abuse the system and come here to cry about it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gizmoe:
+1

I too am tired about people complaining about caps and tethering plans. Att networks are not ready for this kind of traffic yet. I'm sure they want to be able to offer it to people as much as they want it. People don't understand that if they just let you do whatever you wanted to now, everyone's experience would be terrible. Let them build up their networks and maybe someday it will change, but until then, just accept the fact that you still need home internet and tv service. Besides, I think its cool that att is letting people even keep unlimited data plans.
