I found one on eBay with 1700 mAh are there bigger ones??
http://cgi.ebay.de/Power-Akku-f-HTC-Touch-HD-Pro-HD-Blackstone-1700mAh_W0QQitemZ390061743029QQcmdZViewItemQQptZDE_PDA_Zubehör_KM?hash=item5ad17ddbb5&_trksid=p4634.c0.m14.l1262&_trkparms=%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A2%7C294%3A30
uh, 1700mah would really be worth it...
has somebody already tried those?
just curious if there might be risks in getting 350mah extra..dont want to brick my hd ;D
there are no risk in changing the size but if it is a cheaply made battery then something might go wrong.
yeah, thats what I meant..i'm a little bit scared of such batteries unless I got a positive review from someone ;-)
I use the 2600mah battery. Remember this refers to the storage capacity of the battrey, not how much juice it puts into the phone. My battery (from ebay) gives the phone at least twice the life. I use the GPS (tomtom) a fair bit and it makes a big diffrence. Before this I used a large aftermarket battery on my trinity for at least 2 years with no ill effect.
Note: these batteries need a larger back on them which is supplied.
I will eventually buy this 1700 mAh battery in the next weeks and post short review if it's worth the money. Actually there is very little risk to use a aftermaket battery, dasferg is totally right is't just the storage capacity it's practically the same battery with more juice!!
This one don't need a larger back on them!!! It is standard size, and you will
not need a lager back cover!!
Please send a feedback after you have test it
I've also ordered this battery, it should arrive very soon.
Ill make a review aswell
got it yesterday, recharged it to full while being off.
28 hours later its on 99%. Havent used it alot tbh.
20 mins of phone calling, and 40 mins of music.
Why not buy a second 1350 mAh to replace whn the other one is empty?
Here:
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.23961
for just $4,90.
By the way. I don't think the battery you mentioned really stores 1700mAh.
They just print 1700mAh because it sells and nobody ever checks if it is really true.
I also found a 2500mAh battery, obviously larger than the stock one. It comes with a replacement cover as well, also larger than the normal one, to accommodate the larger battery. I'm planning to buy it tomorrow, I'll test it and let you know how it works.

What a good idea, I'm waiting !!!
as far as ive researched the best battery atm that fits in the original HTC cover is the 1500mAh mugen power..
there are ones like Power Akku that is 1700mAh but arent CE approved or properly tested...
seems to me akku are like a cheap dodgy no name brand which is why i wouldnt recommend it
is it worth the cash for 11% more juice?
Sure, there will be situations where you need to do someting and you curse yourself for not buying another hour of power, but it won't change your charging habits. 33% might, 50% would...
[tho @ £9.95 from blueunplugged.com it wound't hurt to have a bigger one to swap out with]

Just got back home with the new 2500mAh battery. First impression: the device looks bulkier with the larger battery in place and is, obviously, heavier. There is a small advantage here, though, you can stash up to 4 extra microSD's between the area below the battery (sim and microSD slot) and the cover. I'm charging the battery now, I'll stress test it when it reaches 100% and post the results.

The 1700 mAh has about 26% more juice over the 1350 mAh, i won't change my charging habits. But i hope my HD will have juice for a whole day... i'm permanently running Skype in the background an this eating up my battery like mad!
Yesterday evening I turned my HD off and charged the 1700mAh to max.
Turned the phone on again yesterday at midnight.
I've used it alot today by using coreplayer to watch an episode of Sopranos, and like 1 hour of music. Called for like 30 mins. Used MSN for like 3 hours through HSDPA and Opera for about 10 mins. Now, roughly 26hrs later, it's at 70%.
note, I have HSDPA always on.
I bought this and used it for a month now, happy with it, performs like my original HTC battery.
Looks almost identical, but 1500mAh instead. Like to have the 1700mAh, but difficult to justify the price difference!

Hey guys,
Last week I buy an 1500 mAH Battery (CS) for my Herald.
Included today I worked 5 days with my Herald (WLAN , Phone, SMS, Calender..) and I have 28% Energy
Good Performance....
Whats your experience with the 1130mAH Battery? Do you have other Battery tested (bigger than 1500?)
Thanks Oliver
Where did you get the battery from?

No, you won't lose data
And this is not due to the pda, this was a 'feature' from WM2003
WM5 and WM6 both have the data/settings stored on a rom chip which doesn't lose its data when you soft-reset.
Are these batteries reliable? Don't want to have them exploded in my pocket! Has anyone already ordered?
Do these larger batteries fit with the original battery cover?
HERE is a 2400 maH Battery.
But It's a larger Backcover...
Thanks for the tip ... ordered one of these to compensate for running BatteryStatus.
5 days !! thats crazy talk !!
i get 2 at most on mine.
is this battery the same as the one you have?
http://www.gizmos2go.com/xcart/product.php?productid=8625
That's the one I ordered, but I haven't received it yet. They don't tell you when they're out of stock on their site.
cool rob, let me know how it is when it arrives.
why is that guy getting 5 days of charge?
Bought one too
After reading the first very positive post about the 1500mAh battery, I've got one myself too. Unfortunately I am quite disappointed. The life seem to be the same or even worse than the original battery to me
Just GSM eats about 3-4%/8h but when I turn the device on I can see the percents going down anxiously fast even with the backlight on the first level
Got the 1500mAh battery this past Friday. So far, looks like I'm getting at least two days, maybe a little more between charges. Pretty much what I'd expect given the modest increase in amperage. Overall, I'm pleased given that it only cost about $30.
Hi there, I'm using the 1500 battery since monday and can't say that I see any difference to the standard 1150- no breakthrough and I don't see how to get over two days with normal use
what about the 2400 maH battery. Are there any benefits of getting that or not? (other than making your phone feel and appear heavier)
Where did you find a 2400 maH battery? And will any accessory for the P4350 work for my T-Mobile branded "Wing"?
Can anyone comfirm that the 2400 battery will come with the cover for the T-mobile Wing?
Please let me know... I will like to have one

There is a guy on ebay selling a 3000 mah battery for the wing with the blue cover. It looks large to me but if you need the extra power it may help. On ebay search for "wing battery". I think his seller id was nakedcellphone or something similar.

here is a 2400 from boxware. what people should also let people know is what their overclock settings are and what people consider normal use. Im always on my phone texting or doing something.
the 3000mAh extended battery for the Hermes costs about US$105 here in Tokyo - should i get it?
i know that it is quite bulky, but in your experience, is the regular battery that comes with the Hermes enough to get through a heavy day?
Don't be lazy and search before you post.

I just got this battery from Lionbattery and it is emazing. I use to get about 15 hrs with standard batter. With this one I get 48 hrs, it is really worth it for me. I only had the battery for 3 days thus far.
i just got the extended battery - and am in the process of charging it now...
well, as what most people said - the back cover that came with the battery doesnt fit snugly into the unit. there is a outcrop on the seams (much like a bulge if you were too tight a pants)...
question, though - it says on the label that i should initially charge and discharge it between 3 to 5 fives to maintain the noted capacity... what does it mean? that i cannot use it until ive gone through 3 cycles?
also - how does one full discharge the device? i mean, doesnt the device turn off automatically after some set of seconds? how can i keep it ON the entire time?
thanks in advanced!!!
I bought a 2800 one off ebay came with charger, and car charger for $30 last week.

The whole "Lithium batteries has no memory" thing is really a myth. All batteries have a memory. The Lithiums are just way, way better at forming a false memory than Ni-Cads or even Nmh batteries. The lithiums are so good, in fact, that you can treat them as if they have no memory.
Anyway, to train the battery intially, put it through 3-5 full charge/discharge cycles. I do it with normal usage. Charge it till it is full and then use it until it shuts off. Repeat. The hard part (at least for me) is not plugging it into a USB for syncing or for modding the thing... cause that'll charge it, and you don't want to apply any charge (if possible) for those first 3-5 cycles. When I get the first battery alarm, I'll back the phone up just incase, then keep going.
Also, I've heard it was important that once you start charging it, you don't stop until it is fully charged again. ie, don't unplug it from the wall to make a call... go over to the wall and make the call while it is plugged in.
There is a site that we highly recommend for information about batteries. The site is www.batteryuniversity.com.
They also have detailed information on how to prolong the life of your Li-Ion battery HERE.
If you're up to doing some reading, you'll find the information very useful.

Lion Battery
Li-Ion's do not have memory. They have a drastic drop once they go under a certain point of discharge.
I have the 2800 mAh, it works great and after a full day of use I have about 40% battery life.
-2 hrs on phone
-40 emails
-random web browsing
-Turn 3G and WiFi off when not used.
So you can see from the stock 1300 mAh which would last me about 9 hrs this is a HUGE step in the right direction.
Mine was on ebay for 30 bones with car charger, and Wall charger.
Don't buy on eBay, at least not from lifestyle0806
Last year I ordered 2 extra batteries for my Nokia E61 from that guy.
The two batteries were wrapped by a fake nokia sticker. When I removed the sticker, I found inside the REAL size of the battery. It was a small 850mAH battery inside a plastic frame with a sticker claiming it was 1350mAH
So on eBay you'll find 2800mAH or 3000!!!... for only 20$ or something... but they are totally fake.
Or at least, they'll SUCK big time
I still used those two fake batteries, and one of them randomly shuts down my phone even if it's still full. The other one will drop to 1 bar of battery, then spike back up.. then drop.

Mark,
Great information and I am glad to hear that I don't need to cylce through charge and discharge in order to get good performance out of the battery. I have cycled my new battery twice but I am not going to do it anymore. According to the information from above site, the battery last longer on partial charge.
Thanks

Seidio 3200 MAH, It Rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!
i just ordered one off ebay
I bought a 2800 mah battery for my 8525 off ebay from a cheap vendor and i admit it did give me more power but on closer inspection when i cracked the pack open it was two 1100mah wired together. I know this because they were stamped with 1100mah lol. Im still using it until this day but you truely get what you pay for. I would take the advice and buy from a reputable vendor or.... take my knowledge if you want a 2200 mah battery for 15-20 bucks.
I got an extended battery 2850mah from ebay. Initially it is no better than the regular battery.Then after a few cycles (5X) when I check my SPB battery meter which indicates the approx run time in hours it comes to 10 hours +! with the regular battery it only goes 3-4 hours. In terms of percent it stays at 100% longer.

Sorry to have to say but in this paragraph, you contradict yourself, first you say they dont have a memory and call it a myth, then you say they do.
In fact they dont have any memory effect, its better to charge them whenever rather than let them drain completely..

rant over
I bought a 2800 from 360wireless on ebay and have had it for almost a month. It certainly has doubled my usage, so with random surfing on 3G/HSDPA (roughly an hour or so of solid surfing), a keepalive connection on my IM program (on E/G for battery purposes), screen dimming after 30 seconds, and about 10 emails a day and 50-100 chat messages, I'm at about 50% at the end of my day.
I'm good with that. I don't need to open it and inspect it. If it's 2 batteries put together, as long as it does the job, I'm good.
Old battery is running out of juice. Recently found some 1700mah drea160 g1 battery on ebay. Any one tested them yet?
What happen to the ecell 1500mah battery? couldn't find it anymore.
By the way, I'm looking for a standard battery (fits in original housing), please reply if you have something to share. Thanks
Don't know if its the same battery i bought about half a year ago at ebay germany but i had no luck with it.
It was labeled as 1700 mah battery... now, 7 month later the battery has power for about 6 hours in standby (think about 500mah rest capacity)
Even in the first months the battery had not more power than the original htc 1150mah battery, the standby time was about the same.
I recommend not to buy it... better get one or two cheaper standard capacity batteries
Sent from my T-Mobile G1 using XDA App
well I just ordered mine off ebay, total came to a lil over 5 bucks.
Im guessing its not gonna pan out, but hopin it'll be at least as good as stock, and if its either of those, im getting my money back and keeping the battery. So tis a win for me no matter what.
I'll do review.

There's a flood of standard capacity battery on ebay that I can't tell which is good and which is bad. I'm just wishing to get one that will last slightly longer than stock or as long as stock. Guess I will have to look around for a bit.

This battery works great for me, have had it a few weeks now, has easily doubled my battery life and standby time is crazy it never has come close to dying while on standby.
The one I received is a little different than the one pictured, my backplate has just the camera recessed and not the whole area around it. So the back is even throughout.

Guys,
I found a 1700mah battery on ebay (restriction on new users stops me from providing the link, but it's from Seller austintexwireless ( 18439 sales))
Do you think it's fake at 1.60$?...
I am looking to buy a bigger battery, but I do not want the extended packs with thick back covers, so would prefer one that fits the original slot.
Any advice?

Here you go http://cell-phones.shop.ebay.com/i....kw=&_osacat=20336&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
I ordered three batteries off ebay. Two of them were delivered and I'm waiting for the last one. One of the batteries is 1050 Mah and the other is 1150. They both hold equally with a little edge for the 1150 one. I'm really sceptic that in this thickness the battery could have a larger capacity than the stock one. This is a limitation of the Li-Ion technology. However, both of those batteries are much better than the swollen stock one after 1,5 years of use and do a great job. One more thing. The 1050 one was from HongKong and cost me about $3 and the bigger one was from UK and cost me about 7-8$, but was delivered much much faster. I think that you can't go wrong with a battery for 3-4$ but I recommend getting two batteries and an external charger - it's a must have for power users. That's it.
My ANDIDA 1600mAh battery begins to show its age (used to last at least 1-day of use, sometimes 2-day if use is light, now barely make it over a whole day) after 11-month of use. So I got a new 1700mAh (by SCUD) battery.
I shall report back how it performs after a few days of use...
ANDIDA 1600mAh
SCUD 1700mAh
P.S. They both weigh 24g.
A quick search finds that lithium ion's specific energy density ranges from 150 to 250 W·h/kg. If we take the highest specific energy density, so 24 / 1000 * 250 = 6W·h (WHr). Divide 6W·h by 3.7V * 1000 = 1621mAh.
So it's THEORETICALLY possible that these batteries can contain 1600-1700mAh of juice. Whether they can actually store as much is, well, another matter.
Of course, the above calculations haven't taken into consideration of the weight of the housing and the circuitry so the figures should be a bit off.
P.P.S. I remember the original battery (1150mAh) weighed a few grams more through.

that pictures even says 2500 mah, I wouldn't trust it.
so, after a few days of use, it isn't as good as the andida when it was new. the andida surely lasted me at least 1-day of uses (unless i'm using gps the whole time, which drains the battery in a few short hours). this one, it lasts a day of moderate use but not much left.
i'm hoping that with more uses, it will be more "warmed up" and last longer.
i'll report back if this happens.
Looks like the SCUD can last 1.5 day of use mostly.
Hi all,
at the moment, my hero sprint (I think this is the proper name) is running on the factory 1350mAh battery. I am pretty content, but I am reading about 1800mAh batteries that should live a lot longer! But on the batteryboss.org I see most are just rip-offs.
Whats the battery of your choice? What are your results and: where did you order it?
I am more than open for all advice about this subject, as long as the battery fits in the stock opening. I do not want my hero to become any bigger than is is
htcheroblog.com/2010/02/14/mugen-power-1550mah-3200mah-htc-hero-battery-review/
Read the five pages and it should give you an idea as to which battery (if any) you want.
Unless your away from your charger for more than one night then the standard htc battery should be sufficient, although I personally have the huuuuge 3200mAh battery which is amazing and lasted over 40 hours for me even with wireless and gps pretty much constantly on. Hope that helped

I also have a 3200 mAh battery and its lasted 14 days on minimal use! That's how good the Hero can be! I use the stock Battery for day to day use though as I get 2 days out of it usually.
I use 2200mAh purchased from Clove uk (part number is HTC-BATEHEROW-B15).
My battery goes down to 60-70% after a day use, WiFi on all time and quite a lot of calls.
It used to go down to 20-30% with the orginal battery.
The real good thing is that the phone has now taken an extra 5mm of thickness and this extra bit makes it much much easier to hold on my hands.
The cover color is real white and does not match the white Hero color, no big deal.

I dont expect many will have a much higher capacity worth buying if you dont want to add depth to the phone soory
If anyone is interested the Clove batteries (2200mAh) are only £7ish delivered to the UK now!
It may be a pricing error? no idea, either way Ive ordered!
Only available in white though... but almost twice the power for less than a 10er! Im in!
(I will probably cover the back cover in stickers anyway... its what all the Apple people do so its easily acceptable for a Android user to do it lol)
I also bought one And thank god i ahve a white hero
i bought one too...
Well my order just got cancelled by them because apparently they arnt in stock (even though they have been on the site listed as 'in stock' for the past few days) and they have removed the item from the site!
Havn't responded to my email asking if my money has been returned either!

50% at 1d12h7m
and i've been using the phone quite a lot, including a couple of full wipe-flashing-backup
I have a 3200 mAh battery somewhere. But I really don't like the bulky back. When using Froyo, I had to use it as my phone wouldn't survive 12 hours with the stock battery. Now, running Gingerbread, a 1500 mAh battery I bought from DealExtreme for 5 USD lasts about 20 hours normale use.

You do have to cut away a little bit of the plastic though. But they are cheap, I've got two of them now, one in the phone and one charged in my pocket.
I think this is as big as it's going to get without having to replace the backdoor?
How about sun global battery? Does anyone of u use it before?

A 6 Cell Lithium Ion Battery is best Everrrrrrrrrrr

Can anyone link me to this clover batteries for the Hero, please?
Digging up old thread but just wondered,has anyone used those 1550 mAh replacement batteries.
I'd like to buy one from ebay but i don't know if it is worth it.
Thanks in advance
There's 3200 mAh, 2200 mAh, 1550 mAh, and the stock 1350 mAh batteries.
I have the 2200 mAh version.
Its only $13.75 USD and is smaller than the 3200 mAh version.
It comes with the back case and lasts almost twice as long as the stock battery.
I wouldn't spend +$79 on just a battery. I'd rather buy 2 2200 mAh batteries. Cheaper and easier to carry.
I found this battery : cgi.ebay.co.uk/GOLD-2430mAH-BUSINESS-BATTERY-HTC-DREAM-GOOGLE-G1-/110629829852?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item19c20d3cdc#ht_2657wt_905
Anyone tested it? Worth?

Interesting. If nobody replies I think I will buy one in a week or so.
Great! I haven't got any money, so I can't buy this battery, but I hope so you'll write what about this battery you think
interesting, thanks to someone who buy this ;P
Could do with a bigger battery, might buy it.
Price is pretty decent. All battery prices for G1 batteries have dropped compared to a few years ago.
The price for this one is probably less than I paid for my 1st replacement.
Its price is a lot less than the 2600 mAh one from Seido http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=BACY26TMG1-BK The Seido battery makes the G1 even look more like a brick then it already does
Looks like a good alternative if the claims from the manufacturer are correct.
Usually they are not....
I hope that after three months, battery does not begin to lose their power.

Got it a while ago. Not actually performing that high, more like 1700 mAh. Still a nice improvement. This battery +14 MB ram hack + way underclocking when screen off = ~2 days use.
So.. Better to buy 1700mAH battery? I have a Eclair with Sense on my G1 and I have underclocking when screen is off. 2430mAH or 1700mAH ?

Well 2 days use is a lot more than what i get.
I used gps logger from fully charged with screen off. It lasted 12 hours to 27%.
If the battery under performs, you can always send it back.

Yes and no
I bought the battery off ebay and it said (in the page desc. and on the battery) 2300 mAh, but I asked the seller and they said it is a 1700 (don't think we can get li-ion that small for that much juice for that price...yet). So get the biggest you can get. I also bought a big-ass battery (one that doubles the thickness), and that is a true 2400+ battery.
*I should clarify. Use for me=calls and texts. Wifi is almost always off and no data. Sorry, I know nearly no one does it like this. I have no data plan and got this phone for really cheap to mess around with android. Now I have a nook color that I'm using for everything
Before the nook color I could last a full day (7-10) and maybe be at 10%, but I never did too much surfing or anything, just email and whatnot.
The super large battery could easily last 2 days of heavy use (on it w/everything on for 7 hours?), if you don't mind a pocket bulge.

I have that one, except with a white battery cover that I can see shipped for $7 if interested. Used for a few days, then didn't want the extra volume. PM if interested.

so its a 1700 and not a 2400 as advertised? why would they confirm that to you? lol not calling you a liar so apologies!
The guy told me, in not so many words, that performance depended on how you use it yada yada yada...
