Hello, I tried something like that, but took it off fast because it made my phone bulky and ugly. However, it does last longer, about 170%-180% I used it only when i knew I'll stay away from power sources for a while.
And the one i used got hotter than the stock one.

and what is about gold 2430 mAh ?? it is the same size of the stock one and larger
and does the heat produce from it harm the mobile ??
thnx for ur reply

I never used the gold 2430, it seems to have 95%+ positive feedback on sites, and it seems to be identical in size with the original battery. I would've probably gone for that one if it was available.
The heat doesn't harm your mobile as it's not that hot, but it affects the battery life on long run. It didn't matter to me because i didn't use it as my main battery, but I think, when used as a main battery it will be very long until it will last noticeably less.
I would go for the gold 2430 because it can fit in the original case, and you can carry the original battery if you need it, without the need of a second back cover.
Good luck!

I find the battery gets drained pretty quickly..
SO i went on ebay
found this

This battery claims to be"
3200mAH
THATS 2 TIMES the ones that came with the phone at 1530mAH
is this possible?? ??
Should i buy? My phone battery will last a lot longer?
DavidW, buy yours from Worcell. You should be in the area. I bought a standard cap battery from them but they have extended ones as well. Even the standard ones perform better. <_<
That's for real I've seen a lot of them. The problem is they make your phone fat.

it has a replacement back battery pack that will make ur atom bulky, coz the battery itself is bulky.
^ correct. Remember that it will no longer fit in standard cases you can buy from the shelves.
I already bought 1. I'm still waiting for it to arrive though. I'll give you guys some feedback as soon as it arrives. I'll post some pics too if possible.

Got my 3200mah battery!!!
It's thick!!! I couldn't use my original battery cover, they provided me anew bulkier one.
Not for thickness conscious people!!! Silicon case can help protect from scratches çoz it stretches. However, got to keep my metal case in the drawer çoz it couldn't fit. 2.1 times thicker than the original battery.
I love the battery life though. I kept it open from 11 PM to 9 am from 80% down to 57%. Backlight at minimum but lit all the way though 9 am.
Slow to charge.
I'll try and see how long it will last using wifi and will provide feedback.

Bro post some pic for us can?and wat brand did u buy? 11pm to 9am, 80% to 57% isnt too impressive actually. However Li batt need some usage before reaching its peak so expect the life to be longer after some usage
I saw some battery pack on web which hold 4xAAA battery that can charge our atom. Anyone have any ideas whether it will cause any potential problem to our batt or device? Im using a 1xAAA battery pack now for emergency use cos it wont charge much
Just before my Atom went to PDA heven ,
I bought a Mugen extended battery.
3000 mAh
came with 3 new covers (black/grey/white)
worked a treat , but did double the width of the phone
(can show you pic's if you like.)
Bought from a member of this site, who is one of the top 5 donators.
Australia based.
http://www.pressdigital.com.au
can highly recommend them .
(safer than e-bay IMHO )

Look like the one for ipod is it? how much did u pay for it?
Ok. I got the figures now. With 2 hours on and off usage of the Phone and about 3 hrs of solitaire (3% per 10 minutes of play), I ended up with 50% from 11 AM this morning to 9 PM. No wifi or gprs.
Wifi will eat 10% per 1/2 hr of use.
Charging time became considerably less. About the same as the original battery. Great already for me considering I used to charge at least 2 times a day with the original battery while it was still new. 4 times nowadays. (I charge whenever I see the battery is already down to 50 to 60%.
Sorry I couldn't send you a pic of the actual battery coz my wife is using our camera. Just imagine your atom turning into a turtle or a mini station wagon. The additional thickness is as thick as any plastic part of the side of the atom (it's plastic-rubber(volume button)-plastic).
The new battery doesn't come off easy. I mean it's easy to install but it's really hard getting it out. However, the cover that came with it can be used with both original and new batteries so you don't need to bring along 2 covers for long trips. I just wish they designed the cover better.
I bought this from "battery center" in ebay(not bidding though). It's about Php 1,169.00(USD 25.++) including shipping snd insurance. Cheaper than any atom battery you can buy here in the Philippines (cheapest so far is Php 1,400.00). Could be cheaper if I bought 3 or more.

Mugen X10 1800mAh

I am thinking about buying a Mugen 1800mAh battery for my X10, is it any good and what are the difference in timing's?
Does it increase the usage time alot? Not sure if to get it or not.
Mugen 1800mAg vs Orginal SE Battery...
I dont think there is a great deal of difference between the mugen battery and the stock SE 1500mha
people get like 4 or 5 hours more than with the original
Just remember that it also comes with a replacement backplate too. It doesn't fit in the X10's stock backplate. Look at the pictures carefully.

I bought a 1800 mAh Mugen battery and in the beginning it was slightly better than the stock one. But after a couple of months it quickly lost its capacity and started to drain very quickly. It also became swollen, when I noticed that I immediately stopped to use it.

Similar to your story, but instead, before it became swollen, I send for repair/replacement. They send me three replacements and non of them fit into my X10 properly (leaves a fine gap and I can here a cracking sound when I try to press hard!!)
Given up and get my money back

[Q] [Advice?] Best high capacity battery for x10MiniPro? (BST-38)

Looking to buy a high capacity battery for my x10 mini pro.
Maybe 1500-2500 mah?
I know there are alot of duds out there...
I'm looking at these right now:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GOLD-BST-38-B...otn=15&po=LCA&ps=63&clkid=7085760772320994471
http://www.dinodirect.com/sony-ericsson-s500-business-battery-1500mah-deji.html?cur=EUR
Any links/advice would be great!
All i'm going to say is, Non sony-ericsson battery may cause damage to your device, use it carefully and give us a feedback if it works, or don't.
I bough one for my old Nokia 8310 and it worked perfectly.
I bought the DEJI BST-38 from dinodirect, it comes in a very posh box but it doesnt last any longer than the stock battery.
Ok, well I bought two batteries online and I'm waiting for them to arrive in the coming days...
I don't have the details of each at hand but I hope to test them for you when I get them.

I'd be interested in your results. I just got my x10 mini pro and have already noticed that the battery doesn't last long. Same as my old Nokia n95 and before that a SE p800... eventually both these phones got decent higher power batteries available... I'll wait till I get a few reports. Maybe someone could build a thicker back case and a bigger battery?
What we must know is : is it a lithium-ion or lithium-polymer battery
Because, Li-Ion last longer, but they get warm quickly
Li-Polymer are quite the same, but they stay cold.
Oh... The battery performance are quite the same between those two

Hmmm last time I checked there was nothing on ebay for mini/pro battery!
Can u give all the statistics of the battery?
how could a battery of the same size provide almost three times the capacity of the stock one? maybe it's because it uses the new Li-bull**** technology

Sure, here it is:
Made in Japan
2 year warranty
Utra-high capacity battery
Maximises time between charges
Delivers superior performance
Robust & durable battery
Direct battery replacement
Stable and safe to use
No memory effect
Uses Li-poly technology
Capacity: 2430mAh
Its not your li-ion battery crap that overheats and causes the mini to reboot, its li-poly.
With reports of 1930mh lasting for 6 days with one charge, im guessing 2430mah could last 8 - 10 days =)

Hey please include a screenshot, not all of us have the same phone usage as you

does it work for mini or just for mini pro?
I just googled a little about gold batteries from Japan. samsunggalaxysforums.com/archive/index.php/t-3856.html?
found a thread where samsung galaxy user tried gold battery and it lasted much more than stock. If i remember in a heavy usage user managed to get abou 3 hours with stock and more than 5 hours with gold battery. It seems that original batteries cost about 20 usd for piece.
I will try to buy one and test it because the one of my mini pro doesn't last more thant 4 hours with heavy use (3g umts 24/7 online, push for twitter, gmail, listening to music in streaming. or watching videos from the sd. and the battery in my phone is of 970 mAh Li-ion and it overheat fast .w.

Wow 4 hours thats bad!
Then again mine is probably that bad too...the heaviest I use it is having 3G/wifi on and chatting on facebook or whatsapp, perhaps whilst listening to music.
And yes, the battery drops at something like 1% every 3 minutes or so...its ridiculous!
Which is why I hardly ever use it heavily whilst im away from home - I'm scared it'll go flat while I'm out!
I'm seriously considering getting an Iphone as my next phone now, because android phones in general do not last a normal day under heavy use...whilst my friends with their Iphone 4s constantly have 3G on, with their large screen on nearly full brightness, constantly checking facebook and chatting over the internet...yet their batteries last the day quite easily....
if you will buy from ebay than look there cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200532787453&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_3017wt_1251&clk_rvr_id=248408890642
Guy from samsung forum has battery from digi.tech seller and looks like that battery really works much better than OEM.
Just bought the 2430 mHa battery on eBay,. I hope to get it within a week.
I'll give you a feedback report as soon as I get the new battery. Bye

Did you got your battery already?
Hi guys! My Gold 2430 mHa battery arrived about a week ago. I needed some tests before I could give my opinion.
I expected more than a 100% improvement from this battery compared to the 950 mHa standard battery, the facts say that I can get only from 30 to 60% improvement. At the evening, whereas I had 10-20% of charge, now I still have 30-40%.
I think it's possible that the phone stop charging too soon, when it get to a given level of charge, so I ordered an external charger (I hope it will arrive soon) to make more tests.
I am not sure, but it seems that the new battery full charges faster than the old one.
A notice: the battery is a bit longer than the stock one. I had to slice a little of plastic with a knife (less than a millimetre) to let it fit into the phone.

Looks good, thanks for the heads up.
it's a big battery...make the phone bigger but it worth if the life of that battery it is abot 2-3 day because i charged my phone every day with te stock one
Did you see the picture on Ebay? It claims that it is the same size as the OEM battery so you DO NOT need to change the back cover. You use the OEM cover
Hi,
up to now tests showed that no alternate batteries were an improvement if they fit in the standard case. Google for the name of the battery perhaps you find something.
Are you on stock firmware? If yes a modified firmware might be a good idea. With froyo I reached more then 70 hours with low usage. The new GB roms will reach this also in a few weeks I think.
Ralf
Thanks for the reply, I did install the latest 2.3.3 Wolfbreaks ROM...
1. Maybe thats why the battery life is short...
2. I did just get this phone...heavy use...may cause the short battery life.
3. My excitement for the phone is another reason battery life is short
Interesting find.
I never used the particular one you found on Ebay, but I have another regular-sized one from China claiming it has 2200mAh capacity.
I hate to burst your bubble, but I have in the past bought and tried many, many replacement batteries for SE, Moto, HTC and other handsets and not single one of them clearly exceeded the capacity of OEM ones. Sure those sellers say theirs have 2200mAh or 2300mAh compared to OEM's 1500mAh they seem a lot better, but in realty they are about the same as the OEM at best. The one I have (they advertised as 2200mAh) for my X10 seems a little bit better than OEM. The 2300mAh one on Ebay, at least, doesn't try to copy the look of OEM, and (from my experience) it usually is a good sign of they are better than self-claimed really cheap OEMs you can find everywhere in Ebay. In the end, long battery life is not a forte of android. It's not like we have symbian devices.
As far as I know, "Mugen" replacement battery seems truly better than OEMs, though I haven't tried them personally. They are not cheap, you know.
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...xperia-x1-1800mah-extra-eros-akkumulator.html
Let me know if the one you found turns out to be good, I'm always looking for a spare battery that exceeds OEMs!
Awesome incite and input!!! Thanks Hasei!!!
I think I am going to buy it...!!!
I need more battery experience!!

Symbian battery is PATHETIC. I still have My N97Mini and my N8, alongside my HTC Sensation and SE X10, all heavily tweaked [you can't even tweak symbian that much] and I'll tell you now, its pathetic. Laggy like ****, but the battery wont even last 30 hours in minor usage, and not even 4 hours in hardout. My x10 can last like 4 days in the minimal usage and 10 hours in hardout, but I still carry one extra battery around =]

Just ordered this battery for $34 USD, will post a review when tested in a couple weeks.
I think it will be a good move from my side to search for such a battery. Ebay, i'm coming!
Seriously, the phone saps away power like mad when using Wi-Fi...
guyz i would recommend not to use chinese or fake batteries.They can even blast.
I never used to play with my battery.
BEWARE!!
The stock battery is chinese, and not all that is chinese is horse dung.
(yeah, i thought that i got some fake battery myself, until i searched for the battery photos in the internet )

i've been using the 3200 mAh battery from ebay as my x10 battery for the past 2 months or so. It's really good if you don't mind the bulk, i can play psx games on my phone for about 8 hours and be left with 60% of my battery. if i don't use my phone much (just texting occasionally) it lasts about 2-4 days. So far no signs of overheating/blowing up .
(edit: used to be running on demand governor, recently switched to smartass. Battery seems to be doing even better)

It's really good if you don't mind the bulk, i can play psx games on my phone for about 8 hours and be left with 60% of my battery. if i don't use my phone much (just texting occasionally) it lasts about 2-4 days. So far no signs of overheating/blowing up .
(edit: used to be running on demand governor, recently switched to smartass. Battery seems to be doing even better)

is it this battery:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/260836802...AX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_2817wt_905,or this 1:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-BATTE...ultDomain_3&hash=item336850790f#ht_1315wt_905
it's a 3200 battery, i'll try pming you the link, it won't let me post it.
If it sounds too incredible, it probably is...
Give it a thought: If the manufacturer of the original batteries would be able to squeeze a few extra hundreds milliamps into the battery without risking the battery security, don't you think they would have from the beginning?
There is always one or more downsides with these "better" batteries:
1: They're fake. in fact, it's only a 1700 mAh battery with a 2200 mAh sticker on it. Placebo warning here! Those reviews from other "customers"? Problably the manufacturer themselves, or payed "customers".
2: They're bigger, so they do need a different cover. These battery claims can be true, more capacity = larger battery. Something has to give in. (In this case: Size), right?
These bigger batteries are okay, as bigger battery means more capacity. You have to give up the slim size here.
3: They removed some or all security features in order to allow "overcharging". That way they can squeeze in a few more mAh in the battery.
The risk of overheating is very real here. There have been cases where such "no security" batteries have exploded, and in some cases even catching fire... while still in the owners pocket. Ouch! That gotta hurt alot.
Here is a video on overcharging a Lithium Ion battery, but it isn't far from what can happen to a Lithium Polymer battery without the security:

[Q] Which replacement battery to buy?

my battery last about 8hrs with barely no use. with average whatsapp and email i'd be lucky to get 3-4hrs. I've already tried every trick listed in the forum to extend batt life. it turns off randomly under heavy use (camera or video playback, games, etc). those things work when its on the charger.
I've decided to replace the battery and my back cover that doesn't seat properly anymore. i wanted to know if anyone have purchased the extend battery; and that back cover looks alot bigger than the original.
is it worth it? amazon.com item # B002MPY4BW
or should i just buy the standard replacement battery? amazon item # B001IF277K
what BST is the battery and what is the v.??

i saw that 3600mAh on ebay for $36. amazon have the 2600mAh for $20. it's listed for x10a. just to verify.. thats the same batt for x10i?
the back cover on ebay looks better. i think i'll get that one if it works on x10i.
thx for ur help
The model # on my battery is the X10a
I personally had the same problem got a new battery and it lasted much longer
Go extended.
If anything it's healthier for the device.
yea... i think that would be best.

Really?
Aren't original batteries a safer choice?

The original battery is too small.
They may have been built in a SE factory but the current rating is too low for the x10's demands.
SE would have solved many problems by just using a larger cell.
The x10 sometimes requests more current that what those poor cells could supply.
Due to a overly hungry GSM 3G radio.

Yes, that makes sense, but is there any sort of guarantee that these no-name batteries use actually larger cells and produce higher rating?
All I'm saying is I am a bit reluctant to trust cheap so-called extended batteries.
i think the original batteries are weak too. don't even have 3G here. at first it lasted a full day with just music, texting and calls. once i added data it dropped more than half.
know whats odd tho.. at home on wifi i get longer battery life. i think it has something to do with this mobile data service.
quick update.. got the new battery.. went with the original so far 21hrs and i'm at 13% batt life. i'm happy rite now. i kno thats gonna go down a bit once my provider remove that blackberry data plan(had to use a BB for 2 weeks) and have my regular data working again.

i'm assuming that's one of the extended ones. did it double the size of your phone?
