okay 2nd day of charging (running sense stock jellybean 4.1)

the battery case itself lasted 4.5 hours on screen time (with the phone at 100%) when it ran out

at 50% brightness

mostly browsing the internet

god that was brutal.

how much battery on screen time would the phone itself last at 50% brightness? 2 - 2.5 hours?

so you are looking at 6.5 - 7 hours onscreen time at 50% (obviously more if you turned the brightness) and less if you went max brightness

pretty good imo.

How easy is the case to take on and off? I would probably only use it on weekends when I know I won't be around a charger. At work, I have a charger at my desk. Thanks.

Easier than putting on pants. Since it doesn't come over the edges it just nudges in and out. Seriously takes me 7 second to take out put it back on take it off and put it back on.

I got this case about 3 weeks ago and it just doesn't perform. It's almost I got a knockoff (but I ordered it from their site, not from ebay, and even mailed with them!).

1) One corner is put together with hot glue protruding (top right when looking from the front - can put up a photo later)

2) it dies in 1 hour when I use the phone heavily (and it doesn't draw more than 500mA from the battery at any time, so that means the capacity is something like 500mAh!!!)

Btw even if somebody here got 5 hours of screen time with the battery case alone - even that would be just 2500mAh. It is supposed to last a lot more (something like 6-7 hours), so with a fully charged internal battery you should get about 9-10 hours of on screen time. Efficiency of discharging the battery is in case of LiOn quite good, so we should be expecting about 3500mAh "real" capacity from the 3800mAh pack.

I have a mugen power for my vivid and it works great....

once you reach 100% turn off the power
the battery drains even when turned off, so its better to take off the case

i would not suggest keeping the case on, if you arent going to use your phone (say at work, phone sitting in your pocket with the case on)

its better to have the case on, and use the phone, like browsing, gaming, movies

and its good to top up the phone when it hits 70 - 80% back to 100% imo

Has anyone tried and sent a case in for a replacement? My 3200mh won't charge on any cable unless pushed hard and to the side.

so pricey. Had battery problems before but when I changed the ROM problems were fixed
