Hi guys,
I just bought a 2400mA battery for my htc hd2 but the problem is that Android does not want to start with this new battery. If i insert the old one (regular one) everything works fine. Any ideea?
Thanks
Use a build that supports the extended battery.
You need a kernel that supports the extended battery's....
Iirc the devs were having quite a few issues with this and the general concensus was..... use a normal battery.

You can flash a kernel which supports the extended battery..

There is a kernek that allows using extended bttery. However there is no temp monitering so its not recomgded to chargw in android

This is still being worked on throughout the builds.. i had the same issue.. but yes it is a driver related issue due to the temperature being misreported.. so it freaks out and shuts down the phone..
A work around apparently is to cover the middle terminal of the 3 on the battery with some insulation tape ( i think it's the middle one but cant remember which post it was in..)
I havent tried this personally, and wouldn't recommend doing it really but some other people have tried ...
Patience is a virtue
On a positive note, with the extended battery you can fry up some delicious flapjacks on your phone while playing Doodle Jump.

There's now a kernel that fully supports the extended batteries!! I'm using it right now and it correctly reports battery% and temp. I charged my extended battery last night inside Android and it worked without problems...

PS. Donate a $ or € to the kid if you like it... he's 16 years old and would like to buy an extended battery himself
A little help please. Currently running darkstone froyo with michyprimas kernal. Everything's fine but a little dated.
After a more current build with a stable kernal for extended battery. Everything i've tried either crashes or reboots due to battery.
Could somebody please point me in direction of a current build/kernal that works with extended battery.
Happy to frig about with wifi drivers etc but found searching was getting cluttered results and as it takes an hour to download, build and test each time hoped somebody would be kind enough to offer a workable solution.
If i stumble across any info will share!.
Thanks

I´m waiting for my extended battery I´ve just bought in Ebay, doing a little investigation of which kernel should work with this type of battery, found that there are at least two known kernels that support: hastarin 7.7 and michyprima r11. I´ve downloaded these three for testing:

It's usually the kernel not the build itself that support/doesn't support extended battery. You should read the change log for the kernels to see if extended battery support has been added. So before you change your builds, take a look at the changelogs for the kernels to make sure your extended battery is supported
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?

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 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.
Guys i need you help!
A few days ago i stumbled to a cheap extended battery for HD2 and i bought it.
Unfortunately i just found out that most Android NAND ROMs dont support it....
Can you please point me to a ROM build that does support it?
Its a non-HTC 2600mA battery....
Currently im using CoreDroid 1.6 and its draining my extended battery just like a normal one.....
Thanks!
extended battery support is kernel related, not rom related.
every rom which is using the current tytung or rafpigna kernel supports extended battery, so my guess: nearly every rom out there

Well...CoreDroid 1.6 uses rafpigna 1.9OC kernel.....
Why is it draining my battery so fast?
I charged it to 100% at 16:00,now is 23:30 and its already at 65%.....

how much have you used your phone? if there were a few calls, a lot of music/games/whatsapp/whatever its perfectly normal.

Not much.
I used like i use it normaly.
A few cals during the day,couple of texts and a few minutes of internet...
My standard battery usualy lasts 24-36hours.
I thought extended battery would give me 2-2.5x longer battery life....
I read somewhere that when battery level reacher zero extended battery users should restart the phone and it will go back to 60%....
I wonder if Android can even charge extended battery to 100%?
If the battery you bought is a non HTC battery then it may not be what it is advertised to be, ie not the ma that it is supposed to be, you hear many stories of cheap or 'fake' extended batteries

Get "Battery Monitor Widget Pro" and that tells you what mAH your battery is and that way as its non-htc you will know if its genuine, i bought a non htc battery apparently 1600 mAH when i first got phone but had no idea back then and only until i got "Battery Monitor Widget Pro" it told me it was 1230mAH which is the original battery so i just use one as a spare now and take 2 out with me, so i can drain it as much as i want, as i know ill never be without
Ok,here's what i did.I let the phone discharge to 50% thatn i powered it off and took the battery out for 10 seconds.
After rebooting the phone battery level was 78%
Im guessing that rafpigna kernel can read extended batteries just not entirely correct.
I'll wait until phone discharges completely and will take out and reboot again.
I tried Battery monitor widget and it reports 1230ma....
When i finish testing i will report back.
