Will the original battery still work with the new back cover in case I use it as a spare battery?

No. The large battery cover has a bulge to accommodate the battery. The original is a thinner battery. You might be able to use a thin piece of anything (foam) as a spacer if you use the original as a back-up.

The old battery will fall away from the contacts with the new cover. If you kept your old cover, just switch that out with the battery or you will need to find something to take up the space in the new cover. Be careful because the batteries can get pretty hot!

It would work, but you would need to use a little paper to fill the gap between the back of the battery and the raised portion of the new cover. I kept the old battery and original back as a spare, but the paper trick will work fine.

I would suppose that the original battery would still work with the new back cover. Never tried it but it looks like it would be okay. You would just need to something on the inside, like felt, just so the original battery doesn't flop around.Charlie

The original battery will stay in contact within the space because it is under slight tension. That said, any bumping or jarring can overcome the friction of contact and then you have a loose canon. If you do this, have some non-conductive stuffing to fill the empty space, perhaps cotton?

It will work, but I doubt that it will stay in the phone, because there is no Clip that holds the Battery in place. You could put like a small piece of Cardboard between the battery and the cover, 0r something to take up the space.

It should be fine. I did not need a new case or battery cover for my phone after I bought this battery.

Yes, the battery works the same as the one that came with the phone, it just has a higher capacity. You can even charge both at the same time, one in the phone connected by USB, and one in the charger.

The extended battery does work with the Charge cradle and the back cover still offers water resistance but can't attest to how long it would stay that way over the OEM back cover...

Yes, it will work fine. The milliampere /hours of the battery only have to do with power capacity ie batterylife. If the voltage is the same and the battery fits bigger mAh is better. Make sure the new one is therechargable type before you attempt to recharge it.

You will have to get a new back cover, as the battery us too big to fit into the original cover. I assume you have a higher capacity battery than the original 2600. MaH battery.

No. It is not. That's why they send you a new back cover. My phone was the purple model, but now it's black and purple. This battery was just awful, but it was cheap so I wasn't out much. I went to Batteries Plus and got another battery, but their back was terrible and didn't work well, so I'm using the back from this which works great. You will not be able to use the original back. It makes the phone larger, but I actually like it better.

No, purchase of the battery should also include the compatible cover. The Extended Battery is quite thick when compared to the original. Another thing you should note is that the antenna for the phone seems to connect through the back cover so you want to be sure what you get makes good contact with the leads. Check out your original cover and you will see what I am talking about.

Havent had problems with the battery, I leave mine in the car plugged up and charged....not sure about a battery replacement, but I will tell you that if you let it completely die and then plug it in to charge it will work fine, I am only saying this cause thats what I did to mine, and it works great

Hi Jason, Not sure but the battery is the same as the original one. I think this is enabled already. I have not tested yet but I think as the original one has it this one also...Regards,Alfonso

Absolutely. That is the model I have. It is thicker at the bottom and overall heavier, and it works perfectly. The rear cover is exactly as the original except thicker.

The new battery and back are MUCH larger than the original battery and back. I doubt it will work.

NO....it works as well as the original battery. If you use avg. data , good for 3 hrs.....Less data 4-6hrs.

The battery works but the back cover does not fit out-of-box. The clip spacings are different. I managed to get the back cover on somewhat securely (meaning, it'll stay on if I don't try to remove it) by shaving some of the clips with a razor.

Yes this battery will fit - it is the same size as the stock battery. The stock back cover will fit it.
