Is there any way to get a green lens (SOC) Defy to recognize the full capacity of a 1700 mAh (Mugen) battery? I'm running GGL (2.3.6) over the latest CEE Froyo sbf and the battery is recognized and charges fine but seems to drain as quickly as the standard 1500 mAh battery. There are various discussions of battery issues and fixes in this forum but I couldn't find an answer to this query.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Did it worked for you?
I think there could be a heating issue while charging..
I don't think that there would be problems with charging, I think that there will be problems with usage, 3.8V is a higher voltage than default battery's, so it could overvolt some hardware parts.
today igot the replacement battery , its HF5X battery for defy+, my phone is DEFY(MB525), phone is charging stops at 98%

Red Lens? if yes, you can flash a Defy+ Kernel and got a full battery...
If green lens, try to search some battery fix.
And sorry, i have a terrible english
I hope you can understand me :highfive:

Hi. How much did the battery cost you. I see HF5X on Ebay starting from 1500-1600. If the rate is same I'll order from them instead.

i got it from service center as warranty replacement
Hey all,
I'm having a defy red Lens running cm 7.2 official. My battery's capacity has reduced a lot and I'm forced to take my charger to college as the battery would have only <10% left by the end of the day.
I'm planning to buy a hf5x battery , but i came to know that hf5x can be charged to a Max of 80% only without the defy+ battd. I have two questions
1: Can i use hf5x and bf5x simultaneously if i replace the battd & lib files to suit hf5x to charge full??
2: Should i buy a wall charger to use both batteries simultaneously??
Thanx

I have seen batteries for the Defy that are the same physical size as the standard battery, but have a capacity of 2500 mAh. Are these batteries as good as they look and will the battery monitor in the Defy work properly with them?
Thank you

I got such a battery and it is CRAP.
Bought it with the same thinking but after that I went and bought Original Moto Battery for my old Defy Green and it holds longer and no need of extra hassle to flash battery fixes.
Buy Genuine Motorola Battery for your device and will be times better.

Does using a Defy Plus battery in a Defy make much difference to the battery life?

Not really, probably just a tiny bit more. The MB525 battery starts to fade after 2.5 years, it's clearly evident in the case of mine.
I believe walter has a fix in the form of a zip that you have to flash if you decide to put a Defy+ battery in a Defy. Im not quite sure though, I haven't visited his google drive in quite a few months.
I found a bigger battery for Defy MB525 which has(theoretically) capacity rated as 3500mAh(it is much thicker than original battery so there is a possibility it will last longer and that it isn't only a sticker with bigger capacity printed on it). However the problem is I own Defy+ MB526 which battery is 3.8V and the bigger battery voltage is only 3.7V. Is there a way to change Defy+ kernel to Defy so the battery will work properly or should I put it in without any changes and it will work fine as well.
