About LinkBacksSo I've been running CM6.1 RC5 since it was released, and I started using Slayher's LFY ROM (set for 250-800). I've been having issues with shortened battery life of late, but I figured since my battery is 13 months old, perhaps it was time for a change. I went out yesterday and bought the Extended Battery for the D2. Fully charged it up at my house, let it trickle for a couple more hours and pulled it off the charger yesterday evening.
Since it came off, I did a few e-mails and about a dozen text messages last night before bed, and had about a 15 minute call. I left it off the charger overnight as I want to completely drain the battery to properly set the high and low points. I played a few games of Solitaire this morning, checked and replied to work e-mails and have been listening to Stocker's music player for the last few hours.
Granted I've not taxed it real heavily, but I've not been not using it.

11-30-2010 01:38 PMIt comes with a new battery door. It's about 1mm taller. It fits much better than my original door did as well.

11-30-2010 01:44 PMI'm guessing the extended battery means it doesn't fit in either the multimedia or car docks? That would be the only thing holding me back.

11-30-2010 01:58 PMNot sure about the car doock but I can confirm it doesn't fit into the multimedia dock. I personally prefer just having a spare battery. Far cheaper than getting the extended and imo it gives you more total battery life.

11-30-2010 02:19 PMThat's suprising. My gf just got a droid 2 and he extended battery and she has to wiggle it a little to get it to be seated properly.
