Good Battery News For u Sprint Customers. - EVO 4G General

a new extended battery from sprint has came out "2600 mah + 2 battery back doors white and black".
i complained to sprint like 5 times that my battery's was ****ed up and i was going to terminate my account if they don't credit me the money for the battery.
so finally i got one nice agent that credited me 43.83 he wasnt sure what the price was of the battery but he made a note too call back with the full price of the extended battery which was 59.97. they credited me the full amount. im sure there's plenty of u that can pull this off!!!
good luck! if u want pictures of it i can post the picture's of it it looks like the sedio black back door.

If its from sprint, I want to see pictures please.

it is from sprint id have to wait till my gf comes home,to take pics with her cell phone, i just popped it in it seems to be draining alot lesser then the crappy htc red battery.

The cover fits very nicely on the device. Came with half a charge already, and I have been playing Angry Birds off and on for an hour and browsing for a bit, 4 hours since its been in and not a single budge on the battery meter.

I have not seen the Seidio in person. It may be a little larger, as it is ~900 mah more.
I have not used or looked at any cases for this yet. I am more than likely going to wait for either Sprint to release theirs for a decent price (haha ) or some manufacturers off ebay to make one.

Thanks I might pop in to a sprint store and see if it fits under the otterbox commuter but I doubt it.

Nice to see sprint kicking out some "OEM" extended battery tech.
Question though - I was looking into getting one of those nice Seido batteries, but was put off by the fact that the Evo was incapable of charging the batter to 100% via USB connection.
Remember how people would get their extended batteries and the phone would display 100% charge when plugged in, but as soon as you pulled the plug it instantly dropped to the REAL charge of only 60 or 70%?
I was understanding that the EVO's charging circuitry was too "dumb" to realize there was an extended battery in the back and cut off charging way too early.
My question is -- is this something the sprint battery would suffer from as well? I did notice that this battery is Lithium Polymer? vs our stock battery thats lithium ion.
Thoughts?

I am loving mine so far. As far as how thick it makes the Evo; with this battery it is about the same thickness my Evo was with the Otterbox commuter case attached. I went ahead and ordered the Seidio Holster,the one for Evo's without a case, for $20.34 from Amazon. The Evo fits fine in there.
As far as battery life I am very happy. I went 37 hours on the first charge which included almost 40% looking for signal under Cell Standy in battery info; you have to love working in a basement! And so far on my second charge I have about 30% left after 36 hours.

I got one yesterday. it's very nice.

What battery to buy?

I'm a newbie, can you addvice me what battery to buy? How mA? should be original?
Is this one good?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ECELL-HIGH-CA...14&_trkparms=72:1300|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318
Same question here... AT&T no longer stocks the battery and I need a replacement.
I'd want the battery with the longest life, which fits the same way as the standard battery... Also, not outlandishly expensive.
Thanks
This One seems to be getting a very good review.
Have you used that battery, k-semler? It looks pretty good, although it's pricey. I'm wondering if the tilt really will recognize that it's a high capacity battery, as this has been an issue with other high capacity batteries.
I haven't used it, but it seems to have a rather good review from that user on HoFo. I'm thinking about buying it myself.
I got the Cameron Sino battery. Slim battery fits the factory battery door. Power rating at 1600Mah compare to factory of 1350Mah which is a 18.5% power increase.
I got the battery and put it in the phone and use it until it was drained. I repeat that couple more times and after a few charges the battery seem to hold power very well.
With this new battery the phone last 1.5 day with normal use no problem ( Normal usage is not including using GPS and Bluetooth and Web browsing all day long)

I just walked into an at&t store last week w / my kaiser in RLOD mode.
Bought a new battery and it started right up. So they do indeed still stock the battery. Duno if you were referring to some other higher quality battery, but the normal stock battery they do carry.

I have no way of knowing if it's really a Samsung. It works perfectly and I dont know if it lasts longer than the original as its a long time since my original battery worked properly to compare.
This battery, like most of the after market ones does not have the metal shield stuck to the battery. I glued some foil on to the replacement battery although it worked just fine both with an without the foil.

The OEM battery had a metal plate stuck to the under side of the battery that makes contact with four earthing points in the battery compartment of the phone.
There has been a lot of discussion as to why this is the case but no concrete answers.
I have used the Ebay replacement battery with no metal shield with no problem at all.

I just purchased this accu. I bought it for $22 dollars included the shipping costs. (Shipping to Holland so worth the price!)
I've got to wait till they shipped it over to Holland but for this price it will be worth the time I hope.
I was hoping somebody already would have purchased this accu and reviewed it...
I'll post a review soon with my experience with this over powered accu.

Received Nexus One Replacement Phone Today - Interesting Observations

HTC sent me a replacement unit for the Nexus One I have with dust under the screen. Here are my observations:
- A Nexus One with no battery or battery cover was loosely surrounded by the plastic that comes with a new phone, sitting in a standard shipping box with some bubble wrap.
- The phone appears to be unused - no scratches anywhere, not even near the USB port.
- The serial number on the replacement phone is 7936 higher than on the original N1.
- The part number on the new phone is: "99HKE002-01" but the part number on the old N1 is "99HKE002-00 F". Not sure what the "F" is for, but it looks like I got a newer revision of the N1. I bought the first N1 a couple of days after release. What is the p/n on the new AT&T version of the N1?
- The IMEI number on the replacement phone is 6825776 higher than my original N1.
- The darker plastic parts on the phone are a different color than my original N1. It is more of light gray color than the darker, almost chocolate original color. I like the original more, and now my battery cover does not match the rest of the phone.
- The trackball is a different color. It is now almost transparent white instead of transparent darker color like the dark plastic. It's possible my old trackball is just dirty, but I don't think that is the case.
- The volume button (especially volume down) on the replacement phone has much better feeling when pressed. It seems to have longer travel when depressed, and it clicks better. I always thought the volume down button on my original phone was not that great.
- The haptic feedback is less intense (too weak) with the replacement phone. I'm not sure if this is because I was using custom ROMs and kernels or if there is a hardware/software change with the replacement phone.
- The screen on the new phone seems sharper than the old screen, could just be imagining it. The old phone had some dead pixels and could have some other underlying problem.
- The battery life is significantly better, maybe related to the seemingly different screen. It might just be because the custom ROMs have worse battery life. Huge difference though.
- The replacement phone is not engraved, but I was told that would be the case.
- The old battery cover fits fine on the new phone.
- There is no dust under the screen, yet.
I am happy with the replacement phone because it seems to be brand new and a rev newer than the original N1 I have. I assume they made some very small improvements with the revision, but it could also just be something as minor as the plastic coming from a different paint batch, or a better adhesive was used under the screen to stop dust from coming in, who knows.
The only downside is the different color of the plastic. I would be bothered by the color difference, especially since the battery cover does not match the rest of the phone anymore, and because I like the old color more, but I plan on sending the phone into Colorware for a matte black unicolor finish. My only worry here is that Colorware will have to remove the screen to paint the plastic, and when they put it back together they will have to re-use the original adhesive tape on the back of the screen, which may not seal properly and give me dust under my screen again.
I'll try to take some pictures and post them later.
Interesting stuff, I have been wondering if there have been runnning production changes and it appears that there may well be some.

Yes, my original N1 that I'm packing up to ship back now was rooted. They may or may not honor the warranty, and may make me pay to repair the dusty screen, or they might just let me send back the replacement phone (I won't root the replacement until I hear back from HTC). Worst case scenario I end up with two N1s that I paid full price for. I would just sell the old one on ebay or craigslist.
I'll call up about the color difference and see if they will send me a matching battery cover.
I've also noticed the significant difference in battery life between nexus ones. I've had a t-mobile one and two at&t ones, one a swap for the other with a dead pixel (you probably saw my recent thread about the displays.) The t-mobile one had great battery life, the first at&t one was bad at about half the battery life, and this new at&t one seems to have good battery life, on par with the original t-mobile one. I'm surprised at the variability of these phones.

By chance did the 99HKE002-00 F have bad battery life too? Cause I can hardly go a full day without being on EDGE.

I could get about 12-14 hours with moderate use, 1-2 hours of web surfing, 1-2 phone calls, 5-6 sms.
Did you notice a change in screen color temperature? I received my replacement Nexus One and it too has very very weak haptic feedback vibration.
What's worse is that my screen on low brightness setting looks totally pink! I've contacted HTC about this and they're going to be swapping the replacement for another replacement. I'm hoping that the replacement won't have these defects.
What about external speaker guys? Do you found it louder from the older devices?
The loudspeaker is pretty much the same between my tmo and att nexus's. I sold my tmo nexus so I can't do a side-by-side comparison, but IMO, the screen of my new att is less saturated and more blue'ish, not a bad thing though. The autobrightness is not as good as my tmo version. The brightness is always set to low by the phone

I don't notice any pink color on low brightness, but I really don't have a good eye for these things. It certainly is not obvious if it there at all.
Did HTC say anything about the weak haptic feedback?
EDIT: Damnit man, now I kinda might be maybe seeing some pink on low brightness. No idea if it was the same on the last phone though.

With the new N1 I make it ~16 hours with about 30% left, as opposed to 0% after ~12-14 hours with the old N1. Again, the old phone was rooted, but I doubt the custom ROMs make that big a difference, if any.
Today, I took the phone off the charger at 7am and it is now 930PM. I have used the phone very lightly today and am at ~65%.

With an overclocked CPU and using JIT, my old phone would last almost double that.
Your phone is defective. Call HTC for a replacement. It took only two days for the replacement phone to arrive.

Well they told me they will waive all of the restocking fees and such. So I am just going to return everything and repurchase somewhere down the line... I wanted to make sure I can return the thing if I can't adjust from the iPhone.
But for example, today I spent most of the day in the airplane so it was in my pocket on standby. Took her off the charger at about 11 thing was warning me about 15% around 6:30, and I was flying all day so I didn't even use it for more than an hour or so.

Seidio 2000mAH - G2

Anyone seen this yet? Or better yet, anyone buy this yet?
http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=BACY20TMG2-BK&Show=ExtInfo
It says it'll fit the G2, so who wants to give it a go?
that's for the original mytouch3G.
I know that, but look at the "Compatibility" section i says:
For use with T-Mobile G2/MyTouch 3G
But i'm not sure why the battery looks that way, because of course that wouldn't fit the G2 at all.
hhhmmm I think i'll contact Seidio to see what the deal is here, i could use a 2000mHA battery.
I think they're refering to the same phone. If you google g2 you get the g2 and the mytouch, the hero,...pretty much whatever phones came out after the g1.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Well god damn it, that kills this thread lol
I don't see how this is going to fit considering the backplate on the G2 doesn't reach top to bottom on the handset like the image shows. This Thread explains how some 1800mah batteries are fitting into G2s with a bit of modification (the battery is flipped around and the wrapping is removed for the door to close properly).
Also test from BatteryBoss show that Seidio's aftermarket batteries output about 80% of what they claim. Not saying that 80% is bad or good, but that is more than likely what you will be buying.
T-Mobile sold the myTouch 3G in some countries as the G2.
there's an 1800mah battery listed in the accessories section. works pretty well. i got 27 hours on it with normal usage and it was down to 26% before i had to charge it again (didn't want to risk it dying overnight and missing my alarm the next morning)
TL24,
The MyTouch 3G Slide battery WILL NOT fit the G2. Don't do it. I read that some guy actually bought the 1750mAh battery and had to modify it to fit the G2. He has been getting excellent battery life. However, he had to use a dremel to basically sand off part of the battery's corner in order to make it fit.
I can't paste links to the thread (because I am new ) but I could tell you what thread it is mentioned in. "How's your battery on the G2?" and check pages 3 and 4. SuperFly03 is the one who did this. I was wondering when an actual battery will come out in which we didn't have to modify.

I got the same battery. Removed the red label. It's a very tight fit. The battery door still has a slight bulge and you have to maneuver the door to get it closed. So not sure if I will keep using them. But good for a backup.

Are you having battery cover fitment issues? People are reporting that it doesn't fit as good as stock battery.

Good brand of extended battery for G2?

Anyone know if there are any that are actually worth it and don't begin degrading?
I've read a lot of reviews saying that most of them work for 1-2 weeks and then start to lose strength.
I'm looking for a reliable brand.
I have had my HTC Evo 4G 1800 mah batteries since the G2 came out. No degradation, minor label modification. Battery door fits fine.
I also have one, but I don't use it every day, just couple of times when going on a trip or traveling. I can easily tell it hold a lot more juice than original and the battery door is well made and has this soft touch, not a cheap plastic.
Also lately I began using external battery charger, the black one that plugs directly into the phone, no cables. I simply always have one in my bag.
the chichitec ones have been working good for me stock rom rooted. I'm getting about 18-20 hours or so depending on usage. The fastest I've been able to kill it is probably 7-9 hours of constant use with everything on, but that was intentional to see how fast i could kill it lol. Cost me like 18 buck on amazon, removed label clipped the ends and voila cover fits perfectly just tape on battery above microsd card holder so it wont short out.

What do you mean clip the ends and tap on battery above microsd holder? Does it not fit OTB? Can you use the original battery covery with it?
There is this tiny clip you snip for the g2 (the battery is meant for another htc model but it fits) and remove the plastic vinyl cover, after that it just fits with the stock cover. The problem is you need to make sure the bare metal battery does not ground out with the sd card holder. a simple piece of tape works well. Search chichitec on here and there are several threads and how to's.

Good luck! I hope it does then I'll get one lmao! I'm getting about 20 hours moderate use on mine.

This new GB rom is waaaaay faster and better on battery life lol. My batteries were labeled as 1900 mah so not too much of a diff I think it'll fit...if not grind it down lol.

yea they were 14 bucks so ill give it a shot, i also ordered a galilio 1650mah thats made for the desire z for 8 bucks free shipping lol. so if the evo wont fit ill have a backup anyways. the stock lasts me about 18 hours on cm7 with horrible signal at work for 8 hours so its not too bad, a little more juice is always good tho

Galilio?
I pay 20 $ for 2 x 2000 mah + charger for the 4g.
Its been 2 months since my purchase, and its hard to say if its better than the stock one. My use are so different days after days. But, one thing sure, its not worst than the oem.

I was just wondering - did it fit?
and how is it?
I've had a Mugen 1800 battery in mine for a long while now, works great and no having to clip or modify or tape in any way. Between that and using the Green Power app I can easily get 2 days out of mine before charging.

just got it about an hour ago actually, wont fit not without sanding it down, and to be honest it doesnt look very well fabricated after the sticker is off it. also since i read the post above on how its not really much better than the 4g stock battery im not gonna bother sanding it to make it fit. i have a 1650mah battery on its way as well which says its for the desire z, so it should fit perfectly, but ill let you guys know if it does in fact last longer than the stocker.
so to sum things up, the evo 4g slim 2000mah wont fit without quite a bit of modification, its close...very close, but still requires sanding. if in fact it had amazing reviews i would mod it but ill just cut my losses and toss it.
update on the 1650mah dz battery to follow as soon as i recieve it. battery performance a few days following that.
cheers

Is this Serious?
It takes like 5 minutes with a dremel (including get it out from his box and plug it) to make the battery fit.
If you can use a cell phone, I'm pretty sure you can fit the 4 G battery...
MugenPowerBatteries anyway!

New Battery for the Axon7?

Pretty simple question, battery is two years old and I'm not sure it has that great of capacity anymore. Taking apart the Axon7 doesn't look to be too difficult, so wondering if anyone has experience on batteries.
There's what looks like stock: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-...547988?hash=item2cd0608714:g:oTAAAOSw~JRawH1t
And what looks like...uhh...this one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LI3931T44P...596322?hash=item1edfe8d2a2:g:80oAAOSwNSJa6EQL
I generally am scared of third party batteries.
I got a genuine ZTE battery off of EBay for $11. Replaced it in an hour. Good as new!
I guess if the battery is shot, it's a good time whilst replacing it, to also make sure all connectors are seated.

Yeah, I mean it's one review. I messaged the guy and no response. Typically I've noticed these third party batteries die within a month.

Yeah I agree.
From my limited experience with PSP back in the day, I had no issues myself.
Plus if it does degrade within the month you could just get an original after that.
Dunno about reliability though, hope you don't catch a fire or something.

I had a vape that didn't regulate voltage well on QC2.0 and caught aflame. Kind of worries me going third party for that reason as well.

YES, I've had multiple A2017U (US) Axon7's reach the two year window where battery life dropped off considerably (or failed completely in the end).
Full charge, remove cable and instantly 80%, run for 20min and 30%, then shutdown with no warning.
I purchased OEM compatible battery off eBAy. I did check into company a little and did ask if stock was super OLD or not (granted, they could fib but that's why I researched the reputation of company and feedback).
the R&R is very straightforward. However, the screens that are behind the speaker grill are tough to keep in good shape (since the adhesive is one big piece) . I ended up resurrecting the screen portion and used separate two sided adhesive tape (purchased specifically for display repair on diff phone -- it was less than $10).
