http://cgi.ebay.com/2300mAh-Extende...ccessories?hash=item2a0345cc94#ht_2529wt_1202
what ya think guys? anyone know the seller?!
yeah, that seems interesting and cheap too. Anyone tried it yet?
Yeah, me.. I bought one of this some weeks ago and works fine, lots and lots of hours using my phone without be afraid to read "Please connect your phone to a charger" lol
Also, the replacement of the back cover is nice, but the only "bad" thing is that the camera hole is, simple a hole, nothing like the original one that protect it (plastic cover).
i ordered one ill let ya know!
I originally wanted to get the 2,300mah one, but then came across a bigger capacity one "2850mAH T-Mobile HTC G1 Dream Extended Battery + Door" for only $13 with international shipping! I ordered it... will see whether it is a good buy or not. I was one of the original users of Andida's 1,600mAH batteries (the good batch).
I just started using the 2300mah, same back cover design also. Works fine, doesn't overheat and lasts for a very long time even when running really high cpu clocks.
It was only about 10 bucks shipped. Same seller also.
Edit: The back cover is soft like the stock one. Overall, it is about 1/4 of an inch more. It feel good in the hand, fits nice and easier to hold, but it does feel a bit heavier than before.
I just got mine today, only had the opportunity to give it a USB charge... After almost 10 hours of uptime, downloading a ROM via 3g, 25 mins of talk, hours of web browsing for work at moderate brightness, I still have 65% left. I expect it to increase when I treat it better after a deep cycle discharge and clearing battery stats to (supposedly) condition it. The case is decent... fat, but totally worth it.
One caveat... I emailed the seller (same outfit from whom I bought mine btw) after the purchase, and let them know my home address IF they were to send by UPS instead of USPS. They ended up trying to send the battery to my home address by First-Class USPS due to a language barrier that revealed itself in the e-mails that followed. Had I not known the postmaster in my small town, it would have ended up returned to sender. The seller was very friendly and quick to respond, and had I not sent that first e-mail I am confident it wouldn't have happened like it did, so I'll take the full blame on that one. Rule of thumb: pay, keep quiet, receive item, use.
just got mine is yesterday..changed it all night been off charger since 630 EST gps, 3g, my location, brightness about 3/4, mp3 for a about an hr..still pushing 100%.. will update wen it dies...
Seidio 2600mAh FTW
Good Stuff.
For the record, My 1st dirty charge on USB power (I was at work) yielded a functional phone from 2/17/10 at 3:00 PM until 2/19/09 at 5:30 PM or so when it shut down on me... I am calling it 50 hours. Apparently there was a bit of juice in the battery because it charged super fast that first time. I work right near a 3g tower and always have a degree of brightness on the phone, leave bluetooth on for at least 35 minutes a day, and I use every power-hungry aspect of this phone like the tips and tricks say to avoid... But I bought it to use it. Ironically I SMS far more than I talk (I yap on the phone all day for a living)... Given my data habit (that first charge involved downloading Super D 1.8 which is in the 40+MB category and an obscene amount of apps), I am a very happy customer. I have not grown tired of the back cover, which has honestly made typing more comfortable.
I probably would have gotten the Seidio if I wasn't a ridiculous tightwad with a 9 year-old computer to prove it. Only the good die young right?

I was a bit cocky after my case swap last week. So me being my cheap self went on ebay this week and bought an extended battery. Here is the link. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=190138594210&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=009
Battery came 5 days later. Black door.... Non rounded and boxy... I dealt with it on my 8125 so i didnt mind. At first i wasnt impressed cause im like wtf.. where is my self portrait mirror. Im assuming it came off during shipping... I could have been anal about it but i had some locktite super glue and put it back on... looks like new.. I did my battery door "Missing Antenna Plug" door mod as i suggested in another post =P. I took my old battery door off and took the battery out... good by slim and hello brick.... new battery fit in fine ... new door snapped in fine... Now for the test drive. It arrived with about a 60% charge. I drained leaving wifi on and streaming music from pc... took a long ass time. I charged it with the 1A stock charger... took a while but it eventually charged in a little less than three hours while off. I work 8 hr shifts at night so im on my phone alot my stock battery normally gets me to about 40% during the night. Thats playing music, Surfing on EDGE with two maybe three bars... Trust me its struggling to get that many. So i know the antenna is using alotta juice. I have it checking hotmail every 15 Minutes. I text about 400 messages a night and i use TomTom to dodge traffic the morning after work with full brightness and bluetooth on... I put in this battery i made it through my shift under the same senario and made it to 90% im thinking the battery maybe is misreporting and its going to drop off to 0 or not even make it to it before it cuts off like when i bought a cheap extended battery for my 8125 (replaced with same brand and worked fine) I streamed mobitv for about two hours on the way home from work over 3G. And it dropped to 70%. Im like the damn thing wont die. I cranked up the wifi and turned on mobitv thinking this will seal its fate. How about it took 7 hours to kill it from that point. I didnt evaluate any talk time on it cause of my hours and no one called but to me thats impressive... I would think if i didnt try to kill it on purpose it would have game me close to a 3 days of runtime. Its a 3.7v 2800mAh Lithium Ion made in Taiwan by Celxpert Energy. Any disatisfied people please post their experience with their extended battery.
whoa! nice! i think i may have to buy me one of those thank you for your review and the extreme testing hehe
I am going to more testing in the next few days. Ill be sure to keep everyone intrested posted. I really think under normal piddling around and texting and listening to music over bluetooth if i only made it to 90% on the first day. I could prob very easy get more than my projected 3 days.Its the morning of the seconday im sitting at 90% again. Most of my drain is at work. And if im actually working really hard.. Im more likely in an area where its searching for signal that was my main drain but my on its first day I cant say that i held back any i gave it hell during my shift on the way home and killing it just for the hell of it to deep cycle the battery. It doesnt get warm during charging or during use. I would assume it pretty solid... The next few days will tell.
price is really good, even better than the $26.99 (includ ship) I paid for a 3000mAh. The back door is black not silver/grey though.
I upgrade my 8525 case to a dopod replacement. My phone is completely black so the black battery door was what the doctor ordered.
Yesterday i got off work at 90%. It was probably actually low 80s because it hit 80 an hour or so after getting home. Today i got off work im at 60%. I had 2 calls totaling 58 minutes... and did some light browsing on EDGE.Bluetooth has been on since the full charge yesterday. And it has been checking hotmail every 15 minutes. I think its probably been hunting for a signal I have full 3G at home and 2-3 bars EDGE at work if i carry it in my shirt pocket. If im carrying in my case on my hip its prob searching for service under the gut. but Ive never been able to get two days with stock. The test continues..
I dont see how people can carry a brick that big
Day three down to 20% did the usual surfing 2-3 bars weak reception on EDGE. Bluetooth has been on since first day. One call today 35 min. TomTom 6 for about 5 hours today... Alot of city driving. Bought the audio dongle so ive been playing music in my car so tack on about 4 hours of that. and you have an almost dead battery. Discharge has even out. Its pretty steady.. no sudden drops in percentage like some other cheaper batteries. It has my my thumb and two big toes up!
Very tempting to try it. Though, my problem is that I have a Brodit car charger and of course it won't fit with the extra bulk.
Just curious if anyone has bought this battery..
http://www.boxwave.com/products/hig...acity-extended-battery-htc-blue-angel_460.htm
It shows it for sale for $.99 hah...that cant be right..anyone willing to give it a try?
well i just took the plunge and ordered 2, at that price i figured why not right? total is 10.43, shipping was overpriced obviously but whatever. Maybe they just cant get rid of the damn things and thats why they were so cheap (also they arent exactly big batteries). Seems our beloved PDA2k is being forgotten
so i got them today. They're OK, twice as thick as normal batteries, hence the 200% normal battery life, it hangs out a bit on the bottom, and the little push up clip is still what holds it in. Havent stress tested it yet. Made in China, for the money could be worth it. OH before i forget, if you have a normal cradle, itll push the BA into an awkward position but it doesnt seem to do any harm.

hi seargent007. is it possible to post pics with the battery on the BA? you say that it hangs out a bit on the bottom. how much? is it safe or it could fall down? could the weight of the battery make harm to the clip?
2400 battery ? from china
after 2 weeks old one <ph26b p/n 35H00032-00 - (new one is ph26bxl -26b/26e)> battery went in the local recycling facilities bin.
don't have cradle, have aussy usb 3in1 sync/home charge/car charge -under 15£ , the battery was under15£ both with P&P !
[incedently have U tried the special rom ugrade 1.2 <via cradle? - works?>]
_d.b_ jus seein' works/not
So the battery is slim enough to fit in the craddle? I almost decided to buy two or three pieces...It's awful, shipping to Bulgaria costs 10$ but the battery only costs 1$
well i just orderd one wish me luck, though i have to wait like 10 days to get to were i am lol

As promise here are the pictures enjoy
I got mine today but it's kinda weird..I charged it until the orange light changed to green, and left it for a couple of hours, and after that when I looked at the status it was at 97% already? In comparison the old battery (1490 mAh) needed about 7-8 hours to go down with 3% :/ Has anyone got problem like this or this is a reaction because it was charged for the first time?
After all it is not so fat and you can use it with your craddle and the default leather case
At first I had the same problem but it seems the battery life has gotten longer since i've been using it.
Thanks for the pics rafyvitto - I just ordered two myself (i guess I didn't need two, but it is nice since they are cheap). Its good to know it fits in the cradle, since that is all I have now (my wall adapter broke)..

I wonder how long these batteries have been sitting...
Things are normal now, I can say but it I don't find any big difference between the stock battery and this extended. With quite a lot of working with the ba, chatting and with about 20 minutes per day calls the battery lasts 3 days and a half which is not too bad For the price it is quite good But I'll think about buying a new one - this time 3200 or 3600 mAh despite of the sizes and weight
I too don't notice any significant difference over the stock battery. Now, two extra batteries for $2 (or $10 including shipping) isn't bad, but I am bummed that they don't last longer..

I don't notice a difference either.. It's possible these are just crappy batteries. The engrish on the back might be an indicator of that.
This is my personal review of the exact battery seen in this auction.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Battery-For-AT-...3314352QQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116
My startrek is brand new. I actually owned the phone when it came out and sold it. Now I have it again once I found out that I could install WM6.1 Professional. I LOVE IT. I like rubbing it in everyones face that owns other Smartphones and PDA phones that my phone can do everything yours can do and more. Anyways I noticed that with the stock 1100MAH battery the life was kinda sub par I rarely got a full day out of it. Although the cpuscaler makes the phone really responsive. It uses alot of juice and the only way I got respectable runtime is when I forced it to stay under clocked. Even then it got me a little over a day maybe 36 hours. I surf the net. I send over 2-400 txt a day. I run OZ IM software all day. I sync my hotmail every 30 min. Plus 1-2 hours of talk time and 2-3 hours of bluetooth a2dp play time. I use Garmin and bluetooth gps everyday. So im raping the stock battery. I sprung for the extend battery on ebay vs the mugen battery of the same AH. 1/3 of the cost. Im happy to say that i get atleast 2 1/2 if not 3 days without charging. The phone has a big arshe now because of the new cover. It really feels alot more comfortable in your hand with the bigger hump in the back. I got big hands and the stock always felt uncomfortable using one hand. I can leave cpuscaler on all the time now without worring about "I NEED MORE POWER CAPTAIN!!" Actually since the phone is a little bit elevated off the flat surface it get better reception and doesnt rock back and forth like with the stock battery and cover. The cover is cheap plastic but its rugged. It doesnt quite follow the profile of the phone exactly but its pretty close. Cover still shuts off phone when taken off. Ive used it for about two weeks and discharged it fully several times so im pretty confident in my results. There is no false battery % reporting like most cheap or expensive batteries have. It has gave me an accurate % every day and didnt hang at a certain % for hours like the mugen battery did on my kaiser. This is a good buy and i suggest everyone pick one up if they are concerned about runtime and not about looks.
Hmmm, I never had a problem with my 1100mah battery, even with heavy usage, I'd have at least 30% the next day. With light usage, it will last me a few days.
That seems awfully bulky with that big back cover.
Thats kinda what i said... With heavy usage the stock battery will last about a day and a half at most. I would have about 30% left after a full 24. My extended batt leaves me with about 70%. Ive been used to extended batteries cause i believe all htc phones fall short with their undersized batteries and ive even had some phones like the HERMES that used to get 4-5 hours when they came out. As the rom cooks improved battery management they got better but still fall short. I also said if you dont care about looks and care about runtime this battery is for you. Its almost twice as large as the stock but even the more expensive battery like the mugen battery .... their covers arent always the most streamline covers. The only cover I liked on my phone from them was the kaiser only cause it appeared to be stock with no bumps or humps lol. Im not a fan of opportunity charging because i find my self buying 5-6 chargers for one phone and placing them in my various hot spots losing the phone and or charger and having to make unecessary trips to retrieve them. Its a slim smart phone what do you expect.It personally fits better in my hand. My desktop dock just came in and it fits like a champ. Fits fine in my universal fit suction cup windshield mount too. So its cool with me.
hey guys as many of you know the TP2 has CRAP for battery life (when under use, it'll stand by forever in airplane mode )
anyway i push Email and constently use BT or wifi to connect to my laptop for tethering ect.
and normally it'll charge overnight then start to complain by about 4pm sometimes "as late as" 6pm
then it's ALWAYS off by 7
anyway i was looking at possibly getting another battery maybe an extended.
i noticed ATT sells a 2150 pack (stock is 1500 right?) that should give me a few extra hours of use... but it's 60 bones
any one ever use it before and does it require the fat back plate?
as seen here:
edit:
im a "new" user still and cannot post links...
here it is anyway
*h-t-t-p dub dub dub* .wireless.att *DOT COM* /cell-phone-service/accessory-details/?q_categoryid=&q_sku=sku4290227&q_manufacturer=HTC&q_model=prod4000225
your "link" didn't work for me; I assumed the "dub" meant W, so dropping the "www" it worked fine.
$60 for an OEM battery doesn't sound too bad, but I wouldn't pay it.
if you look a few threads down, there is a pretty active topic regarding extended batteries, with a few lower priced alternatives. may provide a few more answers than I can.
I have used the 2150 mAh extended battery
Yes, it does require a "fat back" cover that comes with it. The good thing about it is that it is an HTC battery and cover. I, like you, place a heavy burden on the battery on a daily basis. The original 1500 would hardly make a day of it. The 2150 lasts about 25% longer for me; I usually have about 25% left by nightfall. I still have to charge it nightly. Curiously, my Tilt2 can be fully charged, say, by 10pm. I can shut if off and lo and behold when I bring it up in the morning, it's already down to 90%. Go figure. I think there is a slight logic problem going on in the Tilt2 because quite often, my phone will show a marginal 27-30% left, but if I "bounce it" with a soft reset, when it comes back up, it quite likely will show 65-70%. Hmmmmm.
I ordered a 2800mAh battery and cover from a firm in Gt. Brit. It came today, so I'll know more about how it is working in a few days. If anyone wants to know, I'll give them more feedback. Since it IS for a T-Mobile Touchpro 2, the new cover doesn't have a hole for the PTT button, but I had already disabled it anyway. The only con so far is that the hole for the stylus is practically inaccessible. I have short fingernails and cannot get the sylus out of it without using a pencil or pen to pop it out.
Other than that.... I like the extended time I get with these batteries. I don't mind carrying a brick if I can use it all day long without worries. Good grief, I carried a "bag phone" for 2 years back in the late 80's.
Hope this helps.
BTW: The 2800mAh battery & cover I got from England cost me $33.50 including shipping and it took about 10 days to get here (Texas). So far, so good.
2800mAh battery
And just in case someone wants to know, the website I got it on was:
http://www.superetrader.co.uk/extended-battery-2800mah-for-htc-touch-pro-p-5298.html
and the part number was:
1 x Part #5298 :: Extended Battery 2800mAh For HTC Touch Pro 2
2800mAh battery
Well, I have used this extended battery for 5 days now and I've only had to charge twice. I use an AT&T Tilt 2 with stock ROM. I keep bluetooth, data connection and push email on 100% of the time. With the stock 1500 mAh battery I would need to recharge in about 8-10 hours. With this 2800 mAh battery, I have about 65% left at the end of the 1st day, about 30% at the end of the 2nd day, I give it a full charge and go for another 2 days. On the weekend, I turn bluetooth, data connection and push email off, and it lasted all weekend with out a charge.
I think I'm getting my $33.35 worth. Although the back cover that came with it is for the T-M Pro 2, it fits fine with the exception of the PTT talk button being covered up; which I don't care about anyway since I had already disabled it. It is somewhat thicker but the cover fits good and I have no problems with it.

If you were to heat up a screw driver real hot and poke it through the cover do you think the PTT issue would be resolved?
People of this thread: Check out our thread because we're after the same answers but with numbers, not impressions with fuzzy calculations. We want the truth, we want it down to the milliamp hour. I'd sure love to test this OEM 2150mAh battery...
d0ugie
You're so humorous. Sorry that there are some of us that talk in generalities. You know, using your "fuzzy numbers", as you allege.
I'm soooooo impressed that you are seeking only "the truth". That's commendable. However, you might want to lighten up with the "holier than thou" stuff. It's not very becoming on you.
As for the smart remark about using a heated screw driver to place a slot for the PTT button, I can only say this:
I am inure to the twin onslaughts of flattery AND ABUSE; so have at it.

Whatever arrogance I exhibited was both light and in jest. That was a disproportionate response.
Though I do think God is on my thread's side.
Hi everyone,
Does anyone have any review about this battery on LG Optimus 7? The 1700 mAh is also welcome.
My original battery is poor compared to my wife's Samsung Galaxy S with almost similar operation (WiFi, HSDPA/3G, email sync. etc.)
I have a good experience wit Mugen battery from past with Sony Ericsson Xperia X1.
Hayenadeblue
While I was looking for a bigger battery
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...-for-lg-optimus-7-e900-with-battery-door.html
that looks a little too big for me. If I was getting the titan, I might consider it, but one of the things I like about this phone is the size.
I was thinking about just getting a second battery to carry with me as nessasary.
Thanks Etaduck for your comment,
I don't mind the size. But I need to hear something about performance. Quite jealous with my wife with her Galaxy S that can stand for about 2 days.
BTW, in my E900, I've already disabled the location service, bluetooth, feedback, internet sharing, set the screen brightness to the lowest, and enabled the battery saver. I was initially on open carrier firmware with the similar battery issue, then change it to vodafone firmware because of internet sharing and 7740 update.
Kind regards,
hayenadeblue

just wondering, how long do you get out of it now?
with light usage for me I get around 2 days, sometimes more but rarely, but if i'm using it a lot on the internet seem to get a day to a day and a half, what surprised me after reading on this forum was to completly run down battery, then plug phone in but don't turn it on, start phone, after 4 seconds put the charger on, seemed to help with me, no idea why however
before I did that it would last around half a day, maybe its my imagination, but it seemed to help.
I'm also considering getting the smaller mugen battery when I have some spare money, the huuuge one just seems to disfigure the phone too much.
After coming from a Diamond, I really loved HTC's extended battery cover, shame theres nothing like it for this handset.
Hi Stead,
I've got about 16 hours so far. Around 5 am to around 9 pm at night. I've tried your method but there are no improvement at all.
I hope that the option to togle between 3g/HSDPA and EDGE/GPRS in 8107 update will solve this battery issue for me at least.
Update: With 8107 update, limited data to edge, still with standard battery, I could get 1 day 14 hours roughly 2 daytime and 1 night. Exchange, gmail, live, nextgen reader, accuweather running in background. Hook to wifi at home and office bcoz talkmobile edge is the worst here.
I wanted to buy it but after mango update in november battery lasts longer.... i use it for my job, wich is talk, send message, mms, gmail and hotmail acc, and i got 3.5-4 days with around 3 h talking during those days, about 50 msg-s..
I do not use 3g if i am not using internet, which is rarely, screen is automatic, feedback off,location on,bluetooth off, wireless off,gmail is set to 1 hour.I dont overcharge battery, and never charge over usb....never less then 3.5 days.If i use 3g its 2 days top..
I ordered the 1700 battery, its not a huge increase, but it easily lasts a day with heavy usage now, tend to get around 2 days with moderate usage?
Haven't tried turning 3g off yet, so may give that ago after reading djuricn's post!
I've also noticed giving it little charges a lot seems to make the phone only last a day at best, I try to leave it run down, and fully charge it whenever possible.
One final thing, using zune with a usb3 port seems to charge just as fast as the wall charger around an hour for me, and on the pc using zune with a normal usb2 port seems to charge quicker aroud 2 hours, if zune is closed it seemingly takes a full day to charge via usb
Is the extra cost for Mugen Power battery worth it? If you look on Amazon you see batteries for way less....

my personal experiance is that the mugen ones are of better quality, although I think its hit and miss with the cheaper ones, I've bought cheaper replacement batteries and I always find they become unusable within a year and charge times rapidily decline, some of my friends have been unlucky enough to have a bettery last a mere 2 months before failing completly.
Think of batteries you buy, you buy the branded ones for more and they tend to last, you buy the cheapest ones and they never do, same with these batteries imo

Totally agree with you, it is better to get branded batteries from official sources with extra warranty and customer support care, etc; definitely worth the extra cost on Mugen. And performance is worth it too.

@Etaduck
for LG Optimus 7 they also have smaller battery that doesnt require extra sized backdoor. It is 1700mAh and it is still much more powerful than the factory battery:
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...h-extended-battery-for-lg-optimus-7-e900.html
Do not forget Mugen Facebook discount for that
This battery is cool!
Managed to get 4 days out of my phone with light use, just sms and phone calls
Its not how i normally use my phone, but if i'm going to be out for a few days without access to a charger I now do this.
turn off data connection, change connection speed for 3g to edge, i'm honestly surprised the difference this made, I just turned on data connection for the few minutes i check stuff on the internet and turn it back off.
Like i said, I normally don't do this, but if I know I won't be able to charge it for a few days this is for me until I give in and buy the bulky extended battery
I had ordered a Battery-Pack from the Mugen-Shop (link in the first article), but it was never delivered (over 2 months of waiting). The trader dosen't care, says i have to prove i never had recieved the parcel and PayPal says, it's to late to return my money.
So, take care! Maybe the batteries are top, the customer-service is flop. They were shiped from China, so the custom control on the border is the next problem.
