=>Sprint's new 2600mah battery<= screen shot

This is the battery life I got on Sprint's new Evo 2600mah extended battery with medium use. This was taken with 5% left on the battery.

Nice... i cant sacrifice the size for it though

Have you found a cover for the Evo with the extended back.

Seido makes a case but its really pricey.

yea not worth the increased size imho still nice battery life

Same here. Anything bigger than stock is too big.

No I have not found a case.
The battery is not something I would want to use on a daily basis but for traveling or if your going to be without a charger for an extended period of time it will be nice.

I always keep a backup battery in my wallet, heh. I bought the 1800mAh battery from htcexpress that is said to last longer than the original, and you don't need another back.

I have the 3500 battery (for about 6 weeks now) and I don't notice the bigger back. It actually makes the phone feel better in my hand. The extra battery life is great. I don't use any kind of case or screen protector anymore. The phoneis doing just fine.

Same here, I was skeptical at first, but I like being able to actually use my phone. The extra bulk isn't bad.

what's the highest mAh i can get with stock back cover.

i believe 2200, but not sure... i know there is an 1800....

1800 for sure any more and the battery manufacturer might start stretching the truth about the actual mah especially if its a china battery.

Looks like someone has got 2000mah in stock size, haven't tried it yet, anyone?

I have an 1800mah chinese battery... I'd say its about 1% better than the factory evo battery. Blah

Stop complaining about a bigger back if u havent actually felt it IN HAND. Bigger battery back feels GREAT and makes the phone more manly. As adam carolla would say "in 50 years we'll all be chicks"! (no to mention the black on white on black looks sooooo sweet on my white evo!

I switched back to my standard battery today and it was at 50% about a 1/3 through the day.

Yeah, the Sprint extended battery is great. It's a Li-Polymer.

Li-Polymer would be horrible with a device that requires much charging...

[Q] New Battery

I know this has probably been brought up (the similar threads did not show the question), but i am probably going to need a new battery soon for my HD2 (US).
I am interested in an extended battery, but one that is the OEM size(no new backplate is a must), what is the biggest mAh out there for this? Searching the web and ebay all i could find is this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/2430MAH-HIGH-CA...ccessories&hash=item2eb5fbb4fd#ht_2170wt_1139
Not sure if its just a gimick, or if it will fry my phone, or if its legit....anyone know of that one? Or any others.......I dont mind paying the extra $$$, i plan to keep my HD2 for a long time....
one that works with NAND Android is a must as well......Through my searching the above is the only one i could find that fits my wants/needs.....
thanks for the look
-W.Feather

one thing for sure ... dont purchase of ebay and thats not genuine as the mah is 2 large for the size of the battery id recommend buying a normal hd2 stock battery and keep one with you at all times that way you have 2 batterys,
i purchased apparently a (1600) mah of ebay which lasted same as stock battery and until i got an app called battery monitor widget pro it told me the battery is 1230 mah same as stock battery so unless your paying 30+ for over 2000mah with extended back i wouldnt bother as its a waste

you know i've seen a lot of people complain about ebay but as long as you follow some simple guide lines you should be fine, after all if it dont live up to its description you can return it for a full refund per ebay's rules. a seller must list it correctly or they have the chance to have negative feedback & returns. this is not to say that everyone on ebay sells ligit stuff though.
1st thing you should know is if it sounds to good to be true it "normally" is
2nd you should look at the feedback and see if other buyers have left positive feedback for the item you plan to buy
3rd test it as soon as you get it, especially if its a sd card or other easily faked item
4th & last thing you should know is dont expect 100% positive feedback means you'll get a genuine item. some people on ebay start with small stuff they can use to bump up they're feedback score & then start selling cheap/knock off stuff. this happened to me with a 16gb memory stick which had a memory hack showing it was 16gb but really it was only 7gb. ebay gave me a full refund and banned the seller.
if you follow these simple guide lines you should be ok. about the battery i agree LaneyEFC. i have 3 spare batteries that i keep on hand incase one dies im able to swap it out for a new charged 1. i bought all 3 batteries and a wallcharger off ebay for about $15 and couldn't be happier with my purchase. i had a extended battery with a kickstand that made my phone heavy & clunky. It also made it a little more difficult to text on then without. i hope this helps some.
i think this is the seller that i bought mine from.

I know the too good to be true thing mate thats why i asked to be sure.
As for 2 batteries, the reason i'm looking at a new one is, my current one does not hold a charge long enough(yes i have cleared battery stats and all the other tricks), so i'm looking for a replacement......i figure worst case i buy two OEM ones, but finding a higher mAh one in the OEM size would be optimal because i would rather have longer battery w/o swapping em out if possible

that also depends on the rom you use, i get 9/10 hours out off typhoon cm7 but also using the same rom i get 1 day 3 hours using the thread method in my signature and with MIUI i get 7 hours and get 16 hours using thread in signature hints

ATM using Pongsters CM7 rom, been thinking of swapping to a new one but no time for another week till my Calculus 3 Final is done...some interesting things in that thread, will have to take a look at it in depth later......
so still no "OEM Sized" batteries with higher mAh suggestions?

yea i know its not ideal to have to change the battery out but most days i dont even need to. if i do its just right there on the charger. it really all comes down to how i used my phone that day i guess. what would be ideal though is having a battery that lasted a long time like with my touch pro 2. man i could surf the web for house & it might have only dropped by 10%.
anyway like i said i did have an extended battery (2300mAh) but it did make the phone rather clunky & difficult to text on. i ended up just selling it to purchase the spare batteries instead. now im used to it, i just leave it on the charger & if i happen to need it swap it out real quick, longest part is waiting for the phone to boot up.

I've got the original extended battery I just use it all the time now it is clunky but I can play with my phone as and when I want and only ever need to charge at bed time
I don't mind it now and the kick stand is handy

Best Battery for HTC HD2?

I bought my HD2 used and the battery doesn't really get me through the whole school day, (8-4:30ish) even if I don't really do anything on it, it drains pretty quickly. I've conditioned it and everything, but I think the best things to do would be to buy a new battery.
I'd like to buy from eBay or a reputable online retailer.
Does anyone have any great stories with any batteries?

Make sure out have the apps Juice Defender Pro, Screebl, and SetCpu (with a profile to run the processor at the minimum when screen is off). With these, plus official extended battery, I get between 24 and 36 hours on my HD2.

yeh sorry,its e_cell lol,battery is around 50% better i'd say,just my opinion,it will vary cos different ppl use different roms & sd cards

There is a lot of complain on Gold battery from e_cell on xda. Anyone else get good result from this product?

so did you have a new batery now?how is it?

can somebody tell me the difference between e_cell and c_cell battery? give me some advice because i need a new one...thanks !

I use Typhoon CM7 NAND Android on my HD2 and I get easily through 2.5-3 days with moderate use (WiFi included) - my avg stand by is 2-3mA but sometimes it even goes to 1mA (rarely but it does).
You shld get rid of wm if you have it and make your HD2 worth it!!!!

I bought a battery which shoul have 1600 mAh but so big like the normal HTC battery with 1230 mAh.
I didn't feel that I had more capacity, it didin't hold longer than with the normal one.
So i bought the original HTC HD2 Power Battery with 2400mAh and it was awesome. I could easy work with the phone for 2 days without loading and i make a lot with it.
The disadvantage of the Power Battery is that its nearly twice as big as with the normal, but i love it to work with the phone without looking on the battery percentage

If want long work time and size does not matter - original with 2400mAh. And no "chinese" batteries with increased capacity.

dot bother with the ecell battery its a waste of time

I'm not doubting that that's an excellent battery, but when you got the 0mA reading you appeared to be charging the phone and 2 days isn't really that hard to manage if you only use the phone moderately. Also don't forget that the ROM itself will have some effect on the results.

you can buy several backup batteries for emergency

Zerolemon to release battery August 30!

I'm really excited for this as my phones are usually hungry for power. And now they finally have a date. Can't wait.

What are you talking about?

zerolemon is a huge battery for all kinds of phones. I think thegalaxy s3 was like 7500mah

Whyyy?? For me this 3000mh battety is just fine! I get 4 hours screen on time.. Like 7500mah battery is way too big! I like this slim phone

They also make standard sized batteries if you just want extra. Which I do. Their extended batteries with cases are the most hideous things.

Some people don't have the chance of recharging their phones all the time or have a lot of time on their phone. I had the 10k mah on the note 3. Bulky but the case worked for the environment I worked in. 5 days without a charge!

Great news

I just ordered a 12000 mah jackery battery pack like 2 days ago......then today it comes in the mail today.....i go on facebook and zero lemon announces the 9000 mah extended battery n case!!!!!!lol wtf!

Glad to hear this! I certainly don't need the extra battery life but this is very welcomed as one can never go wrong with a bit extra battery life. Maybe now I can actually go a full two days of heavy use without charging!

Idk maybe because some people prefer to have an option of a bigger battery, you know, and maybe because its good to have a choice perhaps don't you think?

What is my real battery capacity? Acubattery varies wildly

So quick question:
If I charge my phone slowly, accubattery reports my battery as being ~2700mAh whereas if I do quickcharge, I get an abysmal ~2000mAh. I mean I already bought a new battery, but how much of my original is left?
Any good way to tell exactly how much my phone will hold?

On my case, I installed a new battery then I did a test myself.
By using USB battery capacity test tool, the result is near 3100 mah.
By accuracy battery, the result is 3400 mah.
The result on accuracy battery not change for a month whatever on normal charge or quick charge. So I think the app is pretty accurate minus 300 mah.
So you may keep charging on both methods. Then use the average number to minus 300mah.
(I guess you have 4 hours SOT, right?)

I believe he's referring to actual, physical battery life. How long will it last before it starts to fail and needs replacing.
Maybe.

I bought it from taobao (china online market), I dont think it support other country but china.
The seller said the battery will label random from 3100 to 4000 mah.
But I think it is fake, by using usb tester, the capacity is still about 3150 though, I dont know how the battery can fool the accubattery app.
So any battery will work just the same.

Well, I also had about 2300 mAh three or four months ago. Now I found out that snapping an HDR+ pic with less than 40% battery will shut off my device (voltage goes below the shutdown threshold from abt. 3.7V) since all cores go at full tilt when processing...
I think Accubattery's reading is good mainly for knowing when to change the battery, i.e. if it says less than 2700 it's time to get a new one. Sadly I can't find one, so I'll have to put up with this until I find someone that sends stuff to my country

eBay doesn't ship to your country?

I have about 2300mah left and if my phone is cold it will get to 30 percent then die and not reboot until it's connected to the charger.
Now I have read that someone else's shuts down I will now eBay a battery and set about replacing. Cheers

Ebay and Aliexpress ship to my country, but I'd have to go to customs to get the battery, fill in a lot of paperwork and pay double the price in taxes... i'm not sure if it's worth the hassle. I'll try to get one if someone travels out of the country

I finally bit the bullet and bought an original one via Aliexpress. It cost $6 plus about $5 in shipping. Now to wait a month or more, as usual with aliexpress

My battery is one year 8 months old. Whenever it got down to 30-37% it would automatically shut off, no warning or anything. When I plugged it in it read 30-37% and would start right up. The battery life in general was terrible.
So I would say if your battery is over a year and a half old and your having problems with it you should think about replacing it. No software will overcome a worn out battery.
I bought my battery from ebay and put it in myself. Not as easy as some would make it look but it's doable. What helps get the back of the phone off is a small flathead screwdriver with a very thin tip to get inbetween halves and then twist to seperate.
