So I am planning on getting a new phone, and am wondering if anyone knows if the epic 4g's battery will fit/work with the sprint version of the gs2, I know it is too small for the t-mobile version, but I can't chose between the att and sprint versions, and I have a ton of spare batteries for my epic 4g that I don't really use.
Well I'm using a S2 battery in my epic. The epic touch battery works fine in the OG epic. So I don't see why it wouldn't work the other way around. Although the lesser mah battery from the OG epic would be a slight downgrade over the stock gs2 battery.

It is a few microns thinner so it may be loose and easily dislodged. You may need a piece of matchbook cover in there to prevent that.

Cuz this guy knows for a fact that it definitely fits the epic.

Except I don't believe him and assume its like all SGSII batterys, taller.
it does....i just got a hands on from my friend at sprint. He also has a the first epic and took out the battery and showed me. He is stoked cause he said he still loves his epic and will still use it but with the epic 4g touch battery. I hope this helps you. As for me Epic 4g touch is for me!
More reports of "it is the same size/it fits/it works" are rolling in. Keep watching that link I posted. Looks like I may have been wrong.
Curious if the same can be said the other way around. Would save me the cost of an extra battery and charger. Yes, the Epic battery holds less juice, but having it as a backup to what I hear is already very good life would probably work out pretty well.
I will be using one of these new batteries in my epic1 for sure.
Sweet, guess I'll keep my batteries and charging kit
This is great news for epic users!
Yes, I own both and the dimensions are the same. The epic touch battery is just a higher capacity
Does anyone else notice it's harder to get the 1500mah battery in the Epic Touch? It looks like the bottom grove(s) are a little different. Everything else is the same, it's just a tight fit. It works though.
Thats what she said.
The external battery charger that Sprint sold for the epic works for the epic touch too.

Does anyone also have a Galaxy S i9000 to confirm if the new Epic's 1800mAh battery will fit / work in the SGS1 ?
Appreciate your feedback. Tq
hi,
i want to buy an otterbox case for my t989 but they havent released one yet.
i saw a case for samsung galaxy s2 epic 4g touch.
they look basically the same and have the same measurements.
what do you think, can i order it?
thank you,
omri
It wont fit, my co-worker has the Epic 4G Touch and I have the T989, the Epic 4G is wider. Whatever case you order has to be specifically made for the T989.
he speaks the thruth... I have an i727 skyrocket and bought a couple cases for it assuming they would also fit my t989... They are almost identical phones but the headphone port and rear speaker are on opposite sides of each other so its a no go... U gotta stick with the exact model of the specific phone...

i also checked the skyrocket model and they do have speakers on the opposite side, but the epic touch has the speaker on the same side as the t989.
anyway, if you say the screen is a bit wider i guess i'll just have to wait for a t989 otterbox case.
thanks,
omri
The samsung infuse otterbox fits, using one myself. Made a post with pictures a while back if you search for it.

I couldn't find any info on this, but does the 2100mah battery fit into the epic touch? Seems like there was a store (from a slickdeals post) selling an extended battery for the S3 that is the identical product to the epic touch...so they physically are the same dimensions as the original battery right?
Not sure but I will definitely be getting one if that is the case!
I'm pretty sure the sizes are different

This. They won't be the same size.

S2 battery isn't the same size as S1... but it fits
I think the real question is who is going to take the time to jump and buy one and test then report the results
The gs3 battery is bigger and wont fit, there's a pic comparing both on the gs3 thread in general.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I don't think it will fit.
So did we confirm that the S3 battery will NOT work with our Epic 4G Touch? Thanks!

Yes
Unless you put a few wires from the copper connectors to the terminals of the battery then it would., wouldn't ?

does epic 4G touch has the same battery as SGS2 ?? my epic battery sucks, and it difficult to find original E4GT in my country
Try a battery by anker, works great. They sell on amazon and you can use the Fascinate model batteries for our phone.

thanks a lot mate
Hi, I am looking for an extended battery for sprint s2. The capacity could be something like 3800mAh or more. Which one is mostly recommended, considering performance and price? Any link for that please? Thanks.

I used their battery for the evo3d and it was pretty good
