Aftermarket Extended Battery RECIEVED

Got my 4200 battery today....HOLY SH!T THIS THING IS HUGE!! Lol. I knew it was gonna be bit but crap! Well if it lasts me 2 days i guess its worth it.

man if you get two days out of it you must only be using it for calls and texts i got a 4200 and its great and lasts me the day but not two but im also heavy on the internet and gaming so maybe itll last enough for you but i recomend doing the battery stat cycle listed above it worked well for me

There is nothing wrong with that maninblack.. I deff took almost 2 day's of not using my phone heavy (which was hard for me) just to post a screen shot of what the battery is capable of...

I was at 1 day and 11 hrs with 60 percent left. Stock battery can't make it 10 hrs w/o using it at all

I was the same way with my stock battery. Texts phone calls and some web browsing but I was lucky to make it 10 hours.

Hello guys I new here ...I would like to ask if there is a difference between charging the extended battery with the standard charger that the ZTE came with or with the new charger that come with the new battery... I'm asking cause I'm going to buy this combo 1 extended 3800mAh battery +cover+charger for $14.98 (from China) but the charger is different from the standard one.... sorry for the silly question... and thank you!!!

Just a reminder to users purchasing these. Charge them correctly and get the most out of your battery!! For the first charge I recommend wiping battery stats and powering the device down. Charge it while off until it says full, then wipe battery stats again, power down and rinse and repeat. Do this until it indicates it is full immediately after plugging it in. Then you should be gtg!!



Im sorry about silly questions but I am new about all this, when you said "wipe battery stats"... how do I do this? I am already root, please reply I just bought my extended battery and would like to get the most out of it... thank you!!!
:thinking:
