The battery low indicator comes on even though it's at full charge. After soft reset sometimes the screen is nothing other than a few verticle red dotted lines. This is before I installed anything. I did 2 hard resets. I finally put in the original battery and set it up a backed up. Put in the extended and same issues.

lol..don't take this the wrong way,
but u be having the strangest issues. stuff i haven't heard of before
but which model extended battery are you using? i used the 1300mAh seidio extended, with no issues. Now as for the screen going dim, u can try start/settings/system/backlight. now uncheck the top box on the battery power tab. and also uncheck the top box on the external power tab.
another thing u can do, is tap power on the bottom of the screen. tap the middle tap, and uncheck the top box here also. NOW, u have to remember to tap the red phone key(for this i suggest reading Danneman's reg edit thread in the 800 forum) to put it to sleep. i noticed as long as i had certain things unchecked, it would not go dim. Also, read around and you'll notice that, the battery dimming issue, is believed to be a hardware issue, therefore making it difficult to fix. so i just decided to keep my phone set this way. i got used to putting it asleep all the time, others felt the opposite way.
