Give it a month or so. Then your battery life will look like mine.
Same battery as Mike, started out strong but fails quickly.

When you first bought it, how was you use? Do you have screens of your Qcell in action?

I haven't got the qcell yet, my usage has never varied. I have always been a heavy user, flashing at least a couple times a day, and I would get ~2 d 12 hrs total with about 18 hrs screen time before I hit 10%. May be a bit excessive for most, but the fact still stands it didn't hold up for long.

I am taking that into consideration. I would definitely like to see the stats if the Qcell. For 15 bucks it came with a charger, so I work it for what's it worth. Do you know if the Qcell is slim or extended.

I went to the Qcell website and found nothing for sph-d710.

I bought my qcell on eBay. Only one that was for sale though lol. Got the 4100. All ran with auto sync on and brightness at 100.

Great stats. I have no choice but to get a Qcell now. My Trexcell is acting crazy. I dropped 20 percent for no reason, and then it started draining the battery. I only got 9 hrs out of it with very little sceen time. Back on the "other" extended. I would like to find a slim one.
I just noticed your sig. Thanks for serving.

In the qcell thread there's tons of screenshots of people with various usage and a update of someone who's had it for a year. His battery still holds an excellent charge to this day. Just follow the instructions qcell provides to the letter.

I have to recant on the Qcell. It is hard to get. The extended battery I got from eBay has really performed better than I expected. I bought another one and on the first charge I am past 18hrs with 59% left. I have love 3 hrs of screen time and have been on WiFi for a couple of hrs. Once I got through my cycles, I think it will be better than the first battery. I am using Project X 3.3, DS battery saver pro on custom, Greenify latest update. I will post pics of the 1st cycle when finished.

I have 4 of those eBay generics after a month or two it won't hold more of a charge than your stock battery. I got the last 4100qcell on eBay lol. They're still a few on Amazon though with white battery covers. I'll trade you my black one if anything lol.

    I have this battery, have for about 6 months now. At first it was great, a little over 2 days battery life with almost 18 hours screen time. Now, I get about 12 hours on a full charge, and once it drops below 40% it drains about 6% an hour. The short life of the battery is rather disappointing, but for the price it has been ok. I will be going with a QCELL for my next one though.

    QCell is amazing quality, that's for sure. Check out the latest posts in the QCell thread. A member from here on xda posted how his QCell is performing a year after purchase. You'll be pretty impressed cause I sure was, seeing how well it held up.

    Anyon one know if there's a smaller better then 3800?lol I don't want such a great hump on the back of my phone.. 2500-3000would be like perfect<3 lol.. I mean, I do bmx and paintball, and I have a feeling that the phone being that thick, in some tighter jeans, would really be annoying in noticeable.. Anyone else feel it? Or is it not that bad? May go buy one of these.

    With the tpu case on with the battery its pretty much the same thickness as my old Samsung moment. I also like it as I can put my pointed and pinky finger around it to grip the phone better.
