here is where I buy my stuff, http://www.netimes.com/shop/htc-dopod-htc-desire-hd-c-80_779.html
it is very cheap and I have it in less than 48 hours if you pick the DHL express shipping, that does coast $25.00 but I only order a lot of stuff when I buy from this company, I ordered about 8 - 10 cases two batteries a DHD stand with the ability to charge a 2nd battery, got it all the NEXT day by DHL

Nice prices. Next day? That's awesome. How's the quality? And thanks for the link.

ATT has the Speck Candyshell in Grey for it. I was so happy to see that and since I get 25% off accessories I picked it up. Man they already had otterbox case and others for the atrix along with the $500 stupid dock

I have not been disappointed in the quality at all. One time I had an item that broke (it was a Desire desk charger) I emailed them and they sent me a new one.

How's the thickess of the case? I'm trying to decide between the Speck and Otterbox.

Batter Door + Sim/SD Door
Anybody knows where I can get the batter/Sim doors? The sim/sdcard door I broke almost in half trying to pull it out the first time, and the battery door I couldn't get it open so I had to use flat screwdriver to get between that slit on the side, so there's scratches on that area.
Thanks

Best battery?

Pretty much which is the best battery without having to change the back cover, and nfc or not.

Battery Q
Hyperion AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket 4G 2 x Battery + Charger
That's the title on Amazon it's like $30 off right now, I was wondering if anyone had any experience using this battery set. Does it work just as well? I'm thinking about getting it.

I've got one of the Hyperion batteries. They sell them as a standalone product without the charger. The battery is about what you would expect for the $10 cost. As I expected, it doesn't last quite as long as the included battery, but it makes a good backup battery for when you need a little extra juice. The amazon reviews say that the charger is low quality, so i bought the RND dock off amazon to go with it. I'm new here so I can't post the link yet, sorry.

Thanks that's really helpful. If I may ask what kind of case or screen protector do you like?

I just ordered a set of these on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Extended-Battery-Samsung-Galaxy-Skyrocket/dp/B006WO0YMM/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1333114979&sr=8-5
According to reviews they get about 3 hours more...they're rated at 2250 mAh. Should be getting them Wednesday so I'll update when they arrive.

I always recommend getting 2 batteries and an external battery charger. I am never without a battery and just have to remember to pop a dead battery in the charger when I get home from work.

Honestly... The best battery for the skyrocket are the factory ones. Not bulging back and the mah is accurate. They are pricey @$35 a pop, but they are the best we can get.

I've got the otterbox commuter series. It's a nice case for what I need it for. Only thing is I have to take it off to use the dock or change batteries. Also best buy included an invisible shield protector on my phone (some BS policy they have). I never would have bought it on my own but it's a decent screen protector if you can get it installed right.

I was looking at either the commuter or, there is a seido active armor case. I got a decent .20 cent case to hold me over till I buy a pricey one.
I've heard problems regarding otterbox cases and the screen protector regarding dirt to be able to get under the protector. And the screen being scuffed if you ever cleaned it. Have you noticed anything like that?

Two batteries from Samsung? Do they sell a two pack with a charger? The reason l looked at the Hyperion was because of its charger. (Digging through the reveiws about charger problems people appear to be breaking off pins)
I like the idea of Samsung batteries since they would have nfc.

I have the commuter series case. It doesn't include a screen protector. But from the reviews I've seen of the defender, the speaker and camera holes are unprotected which allows dirt to get under it.

Please let us know how these are! I've been hesitating to buy them because they had no reviews at all for a while. (I see that there are two right now)
The brand itself seems like it's fairly well liked
Actually, this is the one I've been looking at... it's not quite as big, and has the two batteries + charger

Well, I received these batteries several days early...was scheduled for this coming Wednesday and instead they arrived this past Saturday. Fully charged a battery, and today is my first day using them, but I can say that the percentage is certainly not dropping as quickly as the stock battery. It's actually noticeable.
The battery fits well without a replacement cover, but of course doesn't include NFC capability...

I'm getting an extra 2-3 hours off of those batteries. Definitely worth $30 for 2 batteries and an external charger...

The Hyperions suck a$$... I like many others on amazon have been left with chargers that do not work out of the box, not to mention the batteries themselves, from personal experience don't last nearly as long as the OEMs.

What brands or Extended Batteries are good?

Anyone who has used an extended battery for our Verizon GS3, what brands are good or what have you had good experiences with? I never messed with an extended battery before. And yes, I do know if they are big it will come with a new back cover for compatibility of the thickness.

I personally haven't used any extended batteries yet, but within the last couple hours a lot of the android news blogs have been posting about genuine samsung brand batteries at 3000mah. Looks like you get an extended case with it that doesn't seem 'that' big.
Still it's 60 bucks though, more than I paid for the phone, haha.
Edit: ugh.. since I'm a new member apparently I can't post links yet, just google: samsung galaxy s3 extended battery
You should see it in the news.

I picked up the Hyperion 4400 of eBay for like 25 and it's amazing. I get around 9 hours screen time the larger back feels much better in my hands. And there customer service is amazing. The back was as little loose so I emailed them and they sent me a brand new back... And battery!
By the way there is a couple really good comparison threads in the accessories section you may want to check out.
If I helped you in some way.... pass on the favor and help the next person!

I picked up the Qcell batteries and a charger for $36 a few months ago on Amazon, now it's just $25 for two batteries and charger..
I've been very pleased with them!

Wife's using the QCell 4200 mAh battery. She loves it. She uses it all day, and has yet to see it go below 60%. And she spends the entire work day in a lower signal area.

Hyperion works great. I got the 4200 with NFC. My cover cracked too and I emailed them and the same day they sent me a new one with no questions asked.

NFC would be nice, though I don't use it much I still like the option if I need to use it. Sounds like great customer service right there.

We've had the phones for going on three months now. So about 2.5 months. It's a great battery. Battery cover isn't so hot though. It's the same thickness around the entire cover. So the camera and flash are in these deep holes. Pictures without flash come out ok, but pictures with flash have sort of a pinhole effect where the picture is much brighter around the center, and too dark at the edges. I'm getting her a Seidio back that I've been told will fit. The Seidio back tapers toward the top, so that the camera and flash are not covered at all. I had the same type of back with my old Evo, and it worked perfectly.

I purchased the Anker 4400mAh Extended battery off of Amazon for $20 (it doesn't support NFC though). I have had the phone on for over two days at one point with medium to heavy usage, and it still hasn't reached below 40%. The only downside I didn't consider when purchasing an extended battery was that the cases I had previously bought to cover the phone would not fit of course, so I purchased two additional extended battery cases (which aren't all that great compared to the standard cases). Check out the reviews on that battery, most of them are excellent.

Right now I rock the Seidio Kickstand case and I know they make another case for extended batteries. I've been happy with this cases so I'm a try it out.

Once I get the Seidio back to use on the Qcell battery and verify that it does indeed fit, I am going to pick up the Seidio kickstand case for it. I have the kickstand case that fits the stock battery right now, and it is a great case!

Right on. Seidio does good work. I like the fact that the kick stand cases are soft on the side but hard on the outside. I read the extended battery version is made for the 3,500 mAh battery but my colleague bought the extended back (not the battery, just the back cover + extended case) and he said it fits his other extended batteries that exceeded 4,000 mAh.

Battery help...fit with Otterbox Defender case

ok so i've had my phone for over a year, love it. not need to change phone at this time but the battery is in need of replacement. Thing is i have an otterbox defender case. i need the case and am not willing to give it up. i need some help with the biggest capacity battery that will fit under the stock case or replacement cover that will fit in the otterbox case? i have seen the nexus 2100mah batt getting some props, is that the biggest, best under stock cover at this time?

It does include a 1850mah stock battery.

I'm also waiting for the GNEX 2100mah in the mail from sprint.

Accessories for sale at Best Buy

Wondering if anyone has any information on any accessories possibly coming to a best buy store. At my local store I only saw 1 case that was a brand I've never heard of. I'm hoping for maybe the powermat quick circle case, or any official lg case. Anything more than 1 case

Personally I would like the snap on one better because of the whole wireless charging problem, I would like to have wireless charging but $60 for the att pma case + a charging pad is too much. Considering buying the snap on case and adding a magnet like this: http://www.amazon.com/Spigen®-Samsu...&qid=1406300654&sr=8-1&keywords=spigen+magnet to keep it closed.

Well the snap on case is $49.99 and that magnet you want is $9.99. That's $59.98 plus potential shipping. How is that any cheaper than $60? You don't have to buy a charging pad to use the case..... lol.
