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.

Just wanted to put this out to the community to see if anyone else is experiencing this problem.
I have a mugen extended battery for my HD2 and I have tried every android build in this forum and none of them work with the extended battery except for the Desire Android builds. All the froyo builds fail to boot with the extended battery but they all boot perfect with the standard HD2 battery.
Now the question:- Is this a known issue and if so will this be something that will be addressed in future builds or is it that if i need to run Android I will be limited to the standard HD2 battery.
Thanks to the community for all its hard work.
Try searching before starting a new thread...it keeps the forums clear of repeated posts...
There are known issues with extended batteries...
Try this thread for a start.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756513
Thank You
I really did try and search for days. I think maybe i did not use the right words.. I really do appreciate your quick answer. Thank You.
Would you mind closing this thread so that it does not get any bigger.
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?
Dont look pretty

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.

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..

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..
