What about this one?

Amazon: SkyTouch 3400 mAh Back Door Cover Extented Battery for AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II i777 -Black

:D It doesn't look to be NFC but does that even matter right now? I don't believe AT&T supports NFC yet, only Sprint.

OK just got my 2000mah battery today. The KOREAN version w/ NFC.

Modded the new cover (had to take off some of the tabs with my dremel) and everything works great

Very pleased.

Post some pictures please. Will follow suit if simple enough.
in the I9100 threads there is a very detailed post on exactly how to mod the Korean cover.

if you dont have any use for the NFC. then the International version should work fine and that cover should snap right on no mods needed.

another thought that crossed my mind was to buy both (Korean and International) and use Korean battery with International Cover.

I will try to fint the Link if i can.

is ebay the only source to buy the 2000mah samsung battery?

i dont really care about nfc. so the ones listed as i9100 is ok to use on our i777?
As far as i know, yes the non-NFC battery should function fine. however i have not looked into in great detail because I really want NFC.

and no there are many supplies listed on the I9100 forum, but ebay is your best bet. be sure to read that forum so you know how to tell which battery you are buying.

Which battery is compatible? I want NFC.. I can probably mod the tabs if the back cover actually fits our phone...

edit: Here's the ones I found on eBay, not sure which has NFC or not
1) US Seller: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-200...ccessories&hash=item256a41e8bd#ht_1748wt_1139
2) International: http://www.ebay.com/itm/GENUINE-SAM...ccessories&hash=item3cbed6b7e0#ht_4081wt_1037
Option 2 for sure, the orange sticker on the package denotes that its the Korean version.

To clarify - international version works with the stock back cover but no NFC and most importantly no boot loops which I've been reading about?

It's not that it works with the stock back cover but the new cover will snap right on without modifications. And I've had the Korean version in for a few days now. I'm on my second charge cycle with no boot loops.

Is it possible to buy just a "extended" cover of International version. If not, meybe we should ask sellers from eBay who are selling 2000mah batteries and covers together to get some extra covers

So far I have not found, or seen anyone that has found just the cover by its self. But asking the sell is an interesting idea indeed.
