Ok, I bought an extended battery (3500 mah) on ebay. Don't nag me about that cause it works! well sort of at least. I got it to fully charge over night then all of the sudden the next day its an invalid battery. I've read that there isnt really a fix for this unless I buy an external battery charger and use a widget to get the status of my battery.. I wanted to buy that huge 4800 mah battery but this has me spooked cause 100 bucks is a lot of money for a poor college guy like myself. I dont want to take it out of the box and be in the same boat I'm in now.
so my questions:
Are there any developers willing to code something fancy for me and others with extended batteries?
can anyone tell me their luck with an extended batterys?
Will I have problems with that behemoth 4800 mah battery?
ps I've been through 7 pages of atrix extended battery searches.
Same here,but I found under v6 supercharger script page(xda) he gives advice on calibrating ur battery.worked and now with heavy use ill get 12 hours..soo worth it good luck

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.
I've ordered the non oem "2000mah" battery from ebay... since im in south america it might take a while to reach here, anyone has it? please share your thoughts!
i also buy from ebay this battery, i'm waiting from 2 week, i hope arrived quickly
Same here... I've ordered my 2000ma battery from ebay and I'm still waiting the delivery...
In our italian forum there's already some persons with this battery and from the first information that I've read they've good result.
I'll perform some test once I'll have the new battery
Hi,
I have the 2000mah battery and are very happy with it, but have read some posts from other users that claims that there is no improvement over the original. Not sure exactly how much longer stand by time I get with this battery, but it is a significant improvement from the original battery
Ordered too on 16 January on ebay, but still no arrived..
Battery
It appears to have no more power/longevity over original battery.
To me, the way to stretch battery life is to use a task killer often.
Does anyone know of a charging stand that is available for the Liquid?
I have this battery. I need to test it better but it is worse than original.
I'm going to run a more scientific test today
On the Original Battery, charged to 100%
End All with Advanced Task Manager (cept for some excluded tasks)
Turn on wifi, BT, GPS, brightness on max, using 3G
Media server App on
Swiftp on
Sygic mobile maps turned on
After the phone dies, ill record the time
Then charge up the Extended battery and do the same
So far, cycling the new battery for about a week, it seems to be about the same in capacity as the original
Tests results in
the original lasted pretty much exactly 3.5 hours
the extended lasted 3.5hrs as well
testing charge times now
sigh
have u got the rest of the tests??
mine seems like never arriving!
So really the 200 battery makes no difference?
Dissapointed was thinking of getting one
The thing that seems to drain my battery is the WIFI and web stuff
There is a thing in setup to tell you what has been using the battery but I dont know how accurate it is??
Pete
ok, after a thorough testing, what do you think??
Anybody seen results because it is getting hard to use it with this current battery life

thanks!
I have sign a few posts on the battery from mugen that started that if you want a real change in life that you have to use the 3100mah battery. With out you will see almost 3x the battery life. I'm wanting to try it myself but kinda saving up pennies here and there to buy it.

The reason why i bought this battery is because i wanted to end my work shift with at least 20-30 percent(on a single battery) f obattery left to make phone call if needed, extend my phone usage away from a charger and longer web searching and the Andida 2000mAh didn't help at all. The result
OEM Battery 1500mAh: listening to music from 4 to 1am = 10% battery life left
Andida 2000mAh: ran 3 test each time my phone ended up dying around 11:30-12:00 this battery is not 2000mAh it somewhere around 1100-1300 it make an good back up battery but not an good extended battery.
I well be running some more test, like how long it last on 3G compared to the OEM battery but as of now i see theres no need to.
If you need an extra battery this is worth the money, but if you need an extended battery its not.
I got mine about 2 weeks ago. Haven't seen anything Earth-shattering as far as performance under normal use, but I watched a 2 and half hour movie on the device yesterday and it only went down to 50%.

i listen to alot of music etc etc daily when im at work so that when i would be able to see if its really a big change. I always end the night with about 10 percent of battery life.
Not terrible
I'm using a pair of these, with an external charger. I don't see that they provide a lot of advantage over the original HTC 1500Ma battery that came with my TP2, but they are an acceptable substitute.
One thing to keep in mind - I think they are heavier than the stock batteries. They are advertised as LiPoly, but I think they are LiIon.

It's under $10. Even if it's only as good as the stock battery it is well worth the money considering the stock one costs about $40. Even an OEM off eBay is as much as $16.

for an extended battery it not, i was looking for extended battery life without having to switch to another battery but this battery didnt do its job 2000mAh i don't think so its at least 1100-1300 i notice my battery died faster even on normal usage compared to the OEM. I honestly had enough of it :\... about to add some MM to my TP2 and get a bigger battery.

You are using the US T-Mobile version, from what I can see in the pix you posted; the only one available is the Mugen 3200, it runs about $79. I have not considered it because it really makes the back of the phone stick out. And it is expensive.
I buyed an used Touch pro 2. so i dunno how was the OEM battery when it was new. When i replaced with this 2000 mAh it nearly double up the battery life. From my site there is full satisfaction.

Aside from the poor English in your post, there's no way a 2000mAh battery is giving you double the battery life or even close to it. It is only 33% higher capacity than the stock battery.

Np, i full charge and completely drain the battery and still the same results
How is this on the thunderbolt?
From what I read it is around 1600mAh, I have the Thunderbolt with the extended battery that is 2750mAh and that's not even enough for me on some days.
I use the phone 3+ hours a day keep in mind. I assume the rezound battery would be an improvement, but if you are like me I would recommend the extended battery. The only problem for me is how fat it makes the back of the phone. Even so, I have learned to cope with it.
I get about 10-15% longer life from the 1620mAh rated Rezound battery than the stock 1400mAh rated battery. It can be hard to pin down a firm number as there are so many factors that effect power use. I would certainly recommend the Rezound battery as a replacement if your stock battery is bad, but don't expect much life extension for the money. I bought mine on verizonwireless.com. It showed as $40 list, but $20 in my cart.
If your looking to keep the stock look, I'd go with the Rezound. Bump n calibrate n you should be good to go. If you don't mind the hump n extra size, the extended is the way to go. No worry bout it lasting all day
Tapatalkn with my Thunderbolt!
I'm on stock battery and I'm getting 24 hours with a lot of use.... Just run battery calibration and mine got 10x better......

Just got a new thunderbolt and my battery is decent, not horrible not bad, but extra juice doesnt hurt. I was wondering if its worth spending 20$ to buy a battery with 220 more mAh. Do you guys find good improvements?

For $25+ taxes, you can get the extended battery. It doesn't add that much more weight or thickness to the phone really and it actually fits better in the hand with it on. Don't let what others say about it scare you off. The extended battery is the way to go & you can use the phone the way it was meant to be and the way you want...
The Rezond battery will give you longer life than stock, results vary. I can usually get a full day out of the Rezound battery which is maybe an hour or so better than the stock. I'm pretty pleased with it but I do NOT get anywhere near the results that others have claimed and I do carry a spare battery with me if I go out in the evening.
I have a desk dock that I use at night, it has a slot for a spare battery. I charge the phone at night and have the second Rezound battery in the spare slot. If I'm going out for the evening I'll either change batteries before leaving the house or I'll put the spare battery in my pocket.
