Several people have stated that some off-brand extended batteries works with WP7. For those of you who have them could you please link me an ebay or amazon page so I can buy a few?
I've tried the HTC authentic extended battery and the 3800ma battery from ebay and both don't even allow the phone to boot into windows, but work fine in android.
a battery 'case' would also work?

thanks. ordered
i dont know about anyone else but my device will not detect a battery larger than stock. I have 2 a slightly larger 1350 and a 2600 and both report as only ~1230
a friend at work at the 2600 and it did not say it was larger using battery tool, but so far as lasted 2 days and is still in the 80% range.

The HTC 2300mah battery boots fine on wp7
I have the HTC extended battery (with kickstand) as a backup to the slimmer stock one. But when it is low, WP7 doesn't recognise it and wont charge it. That is, I put the battery in, start WP7, plug in charger- the top LED alternates red/ green and it doesn't charge. Luckily I have dual boot with magldr and android and can charge it that way and then it runs fine on WP7. I remember in win6.5 there was an upgrade to handle the extended battery, does anybody know if I am damaging the battery using android or WP7?
Seems from other threads there are similar probs: this from jaze33
"there is no official EB support in this rom. i have a HTC EB and it will not work. I also have non-official EB from ebay and it works great. we will just have to see if the dev's put this into the kernel or something to support it in the future."
Thanks all
Extended Battery charging issue !
Hi Guys,
Anybody with a solution for this extended battery charging problem on HD2 with WP7 ??
Seems to pick up charge in Magdlr mode, but don't know if the phone will detect the correct battery capacity after charging ?
don't see a solution in sight for this lingering problem.
Any help ?
hi,
I've got the original htc extended battery with 2400mAh and with Android it works very fine,all work...
So i want to try WP7, but i don't want to miss this extended Battery, so works it with the DFT UltraFruit Rom or is there a wayne that it will work or is it a kernel/something other problem?
Thanks a lot

Hi Verita5,
Which android ROM r u using ? Is it on an HD2 ? I would love to try out a ROM which recognises the 2300 extended battery and charges it normally to full capacity.
If it works, I would make my HD2 dual boot with Android & WP7. It would be at least better than my present method of charging my ext. Bat. only in Magldr mode, during which time my phone is useless. My WP7 ROM does not detect the original HTC ext. Bat.
Awaiting a reply.

I've seen posts about it, but have yet to find a thread addressing it. I have been doing Forum and Google searches but have found nothing.
So what is the deal? I have an Andida battery that was great with Win Mo, but I'm convinced it causes problems in Android due to trial and error testing.
I start with a fresh build with the stock HTC battery and it rules. Then I run out of juice and switch to the after market and I lose data connection, wake up lag, and other wierdness.
I've also done fresh installs with a task29 and low level format of the sd card , using a fresh data image and if I do the same with the After Market and the Stock, the build used with the stock battery works and the same build with the After Market has problems right away.
Anyone having the same experience as me? Anyone know what the deal is?
I just purchased a spare OEM battery for 11 bucks off of ebay/USA seller. Hope it's the real deal.
***MOD PLEASE MOVE THIS TO THE HD2 ANDROID GENERAL DISCUSSION FORUM. MY BAD!***
I have found this same problem. I also have an andida battery that was awesome in winmo but sucks in android. I now use the stock battery first and the andida only when the stock dies. It used to be vice versa.
I have a andia battery and a extend battery , and both of them work fine

And this is why I need to know what's up. Doesn't seem likely to me that a battery can make a difference, but it certainly does on my phone.
is it possible that its just a faulty battery?
Or a whole bunch of faulty cheap batteries that have poorly regulated power?
I have a 2400mAh "Replacement For Touch HD 2" battery that gives my phone a hump, I got it for 12 bucks off ebay and it works great in winmo and android... my phone suffers from android sleep of death with both oem and third party batteries that I have though I think this is a mem card issue though.
Hi
Had this problem for about a month now where the percentage of battery my phone phone thinks it has is completely inaccurate. The problem persists in both the ram android I'm using and windows 6.5. Also it can take 30 minutes just to charge the higher percentages.
it seems to be out by about 15% most of the time, either running out of battery at roughly 15% or not charging past 85. It switches between these 2 inaccuracies occasionally when I reboot my phone.
Any ideas of what can be causing this? I'm very worried as it used to be 12% I was losing, then 13, now 15 in the space of a month.
Finally i've tried a hard rest and no luck, plus if there is a thread with the solution to this problem which I haven't found please redirect me.
Thanks in advance

Quite simply your battery is bad. HTC batteries all are "smart" batteries. It's not the phone that knows how charged it is, instead it is the board inside the battery itself. If this is faulty, or if your battery isn't able to hold a full charge, then this occurs. I would get me a new battery from eBay, they are like 5 bucks and see if it fixes your problem.
Thanks for the quick response. Just looked on ebay and found a '2430mah gold business battery' for £10, would that be a good replacement?
Thanks again.

Stay away from the large capacity batteries. Dealextreme has a htc battery exactly the same capacity as original and it works fine. Actually this message was typed on the HD2 with this battery
Just received the brand new battery, and although the problem seems to of have improved it's still there. There is now only 5% of the battery my phone refuses to accept it has....
Iwas planning on upgrading to a nand android build, is this likely to solve thend problem?
Thanks again for your help.

Hi,
I have the same problem from couple of weeks now.I am not too sure if the battery itself is the problem.I wish more people with the same problem have solution on this...
Well, to calibrate the battery try charging it whilst the HD2 is off checking the orange light turns green and leave it a few hrs afterwards too.
You may need to do this a few times otherwise your ROM is not updating itself to the new readings from the battery. Try reinstall factory default rom or hard reset.
Hmm, intresting, we having the same issues over on the WP7 forum, im assuming that its WP thats creating this issue but maybe not....
You wouldnt have the latest MAGLDR installed would you?
No magldr at alll atm. Will go to nand and see if the problem is solved..

charging to 100% in winmo cured any charging issues for me on RAM droid
Interisting...will try it next time I need to charge.thanks
i have a hd2 which was on WM6.5, i installed the nand version of android and found it was eating up the battery a fair bit. i bought a extended original battery from ebay and found it kept on rebooting my phone straight away, the seller sent me another one and it done the same!! i tried the standard battery and all was fine, i then tried a extended battery from china that worked really good.
is there any reason why the original htc extended batteries wont work unless both are faulty?
any help would be great,,,, many thanks
Maybe you will have a look on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898818.
You just need to use a kernel which supports extended batteries.
The tytung kernels posted in the following link support it.

many thanks to you both for all your help, i thought i was something i had done or had a faulty HD2. i will go and try the modified kernells, many thanks, dave.

I can confirm, I have a Chinese battery from ebay and it works well, has the same problem that I have in android,it discharges normally until 15% then stays stuck in 15 for a long time,but that is not a problem for me.. I have an official one that I'm using on my second hd2 that works well in android , but I didn't test it in wp,but I guess it will work well..

Is there a rom that works on an extended battery 2300mAh ? I apologize for my language
Why it should not? Extended or external?? Did you try any?
Battery 2300mAH
When charging the battery 2300mAh flashing orange and green. Does anyone know how to remove this error?
Im not sure of anyone who has gotten it working to be honest
it either doesn't charge it properly or doesn't charge it at all...
at least from my experience.
External chargers are the way forward but they don't help the OS thinking its running low on juice when infact its only half empty... I have a 1360mAh that's detected as such in WM but comes up and only users 1250 or something on WP.
the battery is all a bit of a mess to be honest
i buy cheap 2600 mAh battery from eBay and work fine....
but every time when battery drop to 30% must restart device to refresh battery indicator to 50-60%....
Baterry 2300mAH
And what radio and rom you use?
2.15/5.15, rom you see in signature....
but with v7.5 i have 5-6 days battery life, with 7.9 2-3 days max if have luck
Dxdy...i found that 2.12/5.50 is da best combination...actually what is the best combination can u tell me? Do u have the radio 5.15?i need that to test on my Hd2...can u provide me any link
sorry write wrong.... best combination is 2.12/5.51 or 2.15/5.51 with radio trick
only with 2.12 data and wifi connection is slower

Will test it, I hope that it will charge the battery 2300mAh

the problem is radios were developed based on Network and location, just because one radio has a high version number doesn't mean its better.
So 2.12 might suite one network but not another.
Best way is to try them, hardwre hardio is dead easy to change anyway, the software radio is slightly more of a pain in the arse to trial
