Default Slow battery charging

My phone charges so slow and dies pretty fast too. Is there any extended batteries that will work with the ATT version.

When you say it dies fast, how fast and how much display on time do you get?

I'm getting around 5 hours screen on time, but only 10 hours between charging. But the 5 hours screen on is allot, it means I'm playing with my new phone allot and when I settle down after a few days I should be getting real good battery life



As to your question I have not seen an extended battery yet, but I'm sure they are on the way.

Yea that is not so good. But I would wait a few recharge cycles before getting too concerned.

Just as a side note I am running codeworkx cwm kernel, stock ROM, rooted and debloated.

Are you still stock or have you flashed anything?

I just found this

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...id=47775386911

Have no idea if it is any good and don't know anything about the seller, but I guess they are rolling extended batteries.

Isn't charging slow a norm for Samsung phones? At least that's what I've heard.

Yes, they do that because Samsung feels although it pro longs your battery long term life. My infuse is the same way.

I too am a little worried about the battery life. I unplugged my phone at 5:47 this morning. By 7:15 I was down to 87%. Granted I did read a book on my phone for 13 minutes this morning but still a little dissapointed with the battery life so far. I have had my phone plugged in for 12 minutes and it has gone from 87% to 89%.

I have also experienced the slow charging. It seems to go faster if I am plugged in to the wall as opposed to the USB on my computer though.
