I have confidence in Japan made - will buy it now and see how it goes. Thanks for the link.
Anyone else tried this brand before?

Well I just bought one of the first one's. Kind of skeptical that it is rate almost 50% higher and looks to be the same size as stock. Also hope this fits... oh well. Says 5 - 10 business days so I will report back later.

Ask the seller if he could weigh it for you

Seller said 29g, while chichitec and anker is 34, stock battery is 29 aswell heavier means better batterytime

I thought someone bought these gold ones and said they were crap.

BUt this isn't the gold one although i bet it's made at the same factory, oh the gold battery weigh in at 27 Lol i had a gold battery but got a full refund, so i opened it up, and there was a small battery inside, with a spacer built around it!

Really?! Oh lame...it's shipped.
I guess the only way to find out is to test it and form my own verdict.

can someone explain me technically how the weight of the battery relates to the performance.
apart from getting a case with a smaller battery inside.

generally speaking the weight of the battery relates to the amount of li-ion in the battery (this can only be a generalization due to the casing of the battery and the like) but simply put the higher the weight the larger amount of li-ion in the battery which increases the Amp Hours; Ah
edit: so continuing on a 2300mAh battery should be heavier than a 1500mAh battery as it would have more li-ion in it

so anyone got one this already and tested it out

I have BXT'S extended model BP6X and am using it with my Motorola XT720. The BXT battery weighs in at 24g (it is rated at 2200 mAh) and the OEM BP6X weighs in at 28.7g (which is rated at 1390 mAh) I have used the battery for about a day (with the charge that it had shipped with) and it didn't last very long. I was also running a 1.2ghz overclock at the time so that could have contributed to it too. I believe however that I need to charge it for about 10 hours or so the first charge, just to make sure it has its full capacity. (which I have not done yet) I can give a full overview in a day or so if you guys would like.
This is the one I have:

Seeing as it weighs less and claims its 2300 mah I call this battery a load of crap like the other 2300 mah battery. It prolly has spacers around a smaller battery.

Yes, that is probably true. I have also heard reports of android's battery meter not correctly read the % of battery power on these BXT extended batteries but it may vary from phone to phone so people will have to test it out on their devices. What the report said was that the battery would quickly drop to 25% and then it would take HOURS to drop to 0% but low battery messages would pop up frequently during that time because the phone believed the battery was that low, even though the actual battery % was not that low because it was just incorrectly reading it. I could not tell yet from a few hours of use whether or not I experienced this problem with my BXT BP6X.

Don't buy bxt 2300 mah
I ordered this BXT 2300mAh battery on July 21st 2011.
1st of all it came after 15 long days of waiting.
and when it finally arrived the battery was non functional. DOA
(that might be a one time thing)
But what's really surprising is the weight. As someone mentioned before; if the battery is more powerful it should be heavier. So, a 2300mAh should have more li-ion and should be quite a bit heavier then 1520mAh Stock. right?
(someone correct me if I'm wrong)
well this battery doesn't even weigh as much as the stock.
my conclusion: FAKE FAKE FAKE!!!
I just filed a PayPal claim to get a full refund.
Don't be sucked into buying this battery!

Guys, sorry to resurrect this thread but I've just got one of these with the Sensation I've just bought.
It weighs 34g exactly the same as the Anker I've got. Bot tried the Anker yet so can't compare how they both perform.

1gram battery ≈ 47mAh
I have 5 batteries.
Motorola BK60 930mAh Weight - 20g.
Motorola BC50 750mAh Weight - 16g.
Sony Ericsson BST-33 950mAh Weight - 20g.
Samsung sgh x160 800mAh Weight - 17g.

HTC desire extended battery

This is an age old topic I know, but was browsing the HTC sensation and sgs 2 forums.
When reading I can across an extended battery making called anker, reviews have been very positive for both phones.
Anyway to cut the story short I emailed anker and they do an extended battery for the HTC desire they provided me with link on amazon.
The title says for inspire and desire hd.

My brother is using my desire now, it's already 1,5years old.
So I'm thinking of getting a new battery for it, maybe this is something?
Too bad Anker doesn't have a Desire battery.. I ordered anker for my Sensation, I'm curious if it will perform better than stock.

I agree! Unfortunately it just looks too.... wrong! Granted it might be great for people who can't charge often but I find my phone lasts at a minimum one day with normal usage and possibly 2 if I forget to charge it and don't use it much other than texting and say 30 mins of calls.
You would also need a modified case for it as well and I definitely need one of those as I seem to have a problem with dropping expensive things and my desire has been saved a few times from chips / bumps! by using a rubber case holder!

Is there any external battery for Desire which seemlesly blends with the phone like some iPhone external battery, which looks like a normal silicon cover?

I doubt it very much but in the end it would probably just be easier to get a second battery and pop the cover and swap it out its not that hard but I guess you have to carry it around with you

I would like to warn you for some of these (cheap) batteries. I got one from ebay for one of my previous phones (nokia) and the battery just melted when charging. My phone was ok, but I don't think it was a very safe/healthy situation

cant post the link, but you can search on ebay
2450mAh HIGH Capacity Gold BUSINESS Replacement Battery for HTC DESIRE
no need for an extended back

Do you have experiences with the gold 2450mAh battery?
Does it really lasts longer then stock battery?
You can save your money, I bought this 1600mAh battery but even after 5 cycles and batt stats wipe it's just ****.
It just performs @75% of the stock battery.
Good for spare, but reusing the stock battery now..

Yes I get a lot longer out of the extended gold battery, but I'm running the Runnymede 3.0.4 AIO rom and that suffers from heavy battery drain but this battery lasts all day now, I just need a wall charger and a second battery and I'm all good

I only believe in original batteries

I have one of those. Some apps or the OS see it as 780mAh, I didn't do much testing to find the real truth, but the actual battery is smaller in size than the stock one (maybe 1350-1500 max), has a cheaper and stupider controller (no voltage, no temperature) and it will decay faster than an original SANYO battery (it will be worse than your current battery is now in about a year with similar usage).
Ask yourself, what would you want to have in your pocket when your main battery discharges completely:
- 5 euro banknote
- 5 euro replacement battery with at least half charge
You get what you pay for.

Cameron Sino 2400mAh..with a bit of kernel tweaks, it lasts 1.5 days...good enough for my needs.

I guess you all need to check this review. It's a hands-on review with a lot of data on how much time Mugen 3200mAh battery adds etc.

In my opinion only original or Mugen batteries

i think the original battery is the best battery i had an battery from ebay from Polarcell the battery was terrible its not good has anyone a good alternative battery found

Battery suggestions?

I'm planning on buying a higher capacity batter for my DHD: any suggestions? I don't want a bulky external battery, the thing is big enough as it is.
I found this on eBay, but it seems waaay too good to be true.. Is there a risk of it exploding in my pocket, or just of it being really crappy?
Are the Mugen (1500mAh) or Andida (1800mAh) batteries any good?
Any answers will be appreciated
Thanks

From what I've read, the Mugen batteries are good but they don't make too much of a difference in normal usage. I really doubt there can be such a huge jump in mAh without any increase in size as the two batteries suggest. 1500 mAh seems plausible, but 1800 mAh seems very unlikely. The actual capacity will be much less than advertised, hence the not so great performance improvement.
In my opinion, (if you haven't done this already) you'd be better off rooting your phone and installing one of many custom ROMs here which give excellent battery life over the stock ROM. I get around 18 hours of moderate to heavy usage and more than a day of light usage. Also, I keep 2 standard batteries. The battery life offered by that combination is much better than a single higher capacity battery, and the HTC battery costs a lot less too.
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium

I want a higher capacity battery also! any one have suggestions?

Thanks for your answer I might go for the spare battery, even though I probably won't ever have it on me when I actually need it
As you can see from my sig, I have installed RCMix's latest custom ROM, but while it adds lots of great features, my battery life is actually shorter than with stock.

Yeah I tried RCMix3d Runny 4.0 and found the battery life quite bad too. Even with killersloth's UV scripts and all that. That and average GPS performance (~6 satellites usually, weak lock) were the only problems with it. The RCTweaks are awesome.
For the best battery life and fast GPS lock (~10 satellites strong lock), from my trials, I've found that these ROMs give the best performance -

If you're going to buy a replacement battery, get an OEM one (0% improvement over stock ) or get the Mugen 1500mAh - that may just get you through to the end of the day.
Definitely, install a different ROM, and look at the clockspeed options you're given (or just install OC/UV Beater) You can overclock or underclock, and also play with undervolting, which improves efficiency.
Also consider network management, screen brightness etc -an easy way to do so is to use Juice Defender, though the purists say all their options can be effected manually.
And if all else fails, you can carry a battery pack around http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Trent-D...1OK4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1326811038&sr=8-3 this is 5000mAh, these people produce an 11000mAh version. My 5000mAh pack is great for sticking in the rucksack on a long day out with GPS enabled, cost about GBP20 - of all the options I evaluated, this is best value for money - also no need to switch phone off, vs changing the battery). Their customer service was very responsive when I told them that the charging cable wasn't working

Don´t waste your money in chinese batteries.I tried a few myself.If you really need it,the best thing is to buy anther OEM one.

Mugen's 1500 battery shows about 15% better capacity than my almost year-old stock one (1270 vs. 1095mAh, as measured by the battery monitor widget, after its first 4 cycles). Does not look quite like 1500mAh, but I guess the stock one never did register 1320mAh in that measurement either - it's either a systematic error, residual change or something...

I have an (china) battery from ebay with 1600 mAh. the battery life on our phones is really really poor. I heavily used my phone of the day an i only get a battery life from 6-8 hours, and thats really bad. So i found that no battery is even better than the original.

Though Mugen is not a perfect solution, it is better than stock batt.
Don't just go for price when you are buying batteries too, especially those dirt cheap china batteries. I bought a few before, it bloated up after a few months of usage.

hi, can some one suggest me(I am heavy user) witch is the best battery for DHD and best place to buy ?
Thanks

Due to DHD specialty, there can be used batteries with the capacity not more than 1500 mAh. All the numbers more than 1500 are either lie, or mean that battery is thicker than DHD body can support.

That's why you've got three options:
1) use multiple batteries (not really an option)
2) use an external charger (better, but i don't want to carry around more than the phone)
3) if you use a protective case then get a sensation battery....mines got 1900mAh and fits nicely into my DHD

You can also use a secour / external battery .You can reload four or five time you phon whit.

I have one extra 1230mAh battery & an Energizer XP2000 Portable charger. But to my opinion, adjusting your phone-charging habits makes all the difference. Anticipate with respect to your day's routine.
Though, I'm looking forward for the GSM version of Motorola Droid Maxx, or for any other that rivals its battery capacity.
p.s. charging extra batteries individual would be nice. I should try modding some usb cable to connect directly to the battery contacts, hmmmm...

Improving battery life

Hi all,
I would like to make my battery life for my phone better. I would like the opinion about external batteries and after market batteries. I just don't know what to buy. Should I buy both?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

I've heard stories that Juice Defender in the market is worth it, may want to check out the free version.
I also recommend the stock battery for the EVO Design 4G, fits perfect in our G2/Desire Z and gives a little kick over stock. If you are looking for a monster extended battery that requires a new battery door, check out the battery thread in Accessories.

A lot of folks on here swear by so called "higher capacity" 3rd party batteries like Seidio and others.
But a while back, a guy on here did a bunch of testing of various 3rd party and OEM batteries on various phones. He found that the expensive, so called "high capacity" or extended 3rd party batteries almost never met their rated mAh. And often even tested lower than the stock (lower rated) OEM battery.
He wrote up his test methodology and results very comprehensively. It looked to be done pretty scientifically, and I take more stock in this than anecdotal evidence. Can't find it right now, but its a great writeup.

If your looking for a bigger battery I can vouch for the extended ones @ htcpedia, Having purchased a few myself.
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-desire-z/accessories/batteries.html
That aside your can try flashing a different kernel, for better battery life.

I have the Mugan 1800mah, after flashing a new radio (the newest one from T Mobile) and the matching RiL files my battery is lasting longer. So far on a single charge and moderate use I am getting around 36 hours.

I brought this CHICITECH set (2x1900mah batteries and a wall charger) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/220648053...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1427.l2649#ht_5383wt_1185 and they arrived about 7 working days after in the UK.
I only got them yesterday, but already i have noticed a big difference. I had a stock battery before but these are lasting between 30 and 50% longer. I have heard good reviews about them before and they seem good so far.
You do need to remove the sticker and cut off a small bit of plastic to make them fit reasonably, but for the price your getting what appear to be 2 good batteries. Mugen slim batteries are a ripoff IMO.

So EVO 4G batteries would fit with some modifying? Hmm i think an external battery would be better for my use than carrying spares.

Get 2 batteries and keep one charged in your wallet, works a treat and doesnt add bulk

Just out of curiosity how long does ur average battery last? I can usually squeeze ~14 hours with moderate use. if u don't want the bulky feel I would suggest just getting another oem battery as a spare

Idea:
Grab one of those Energizer charge-on-the-go things with a micro-usb plug and use that to rapid charge your phone when you need a boost mid-day.
http://static.phonesreview.co.uk/wp-content/phoneimages/2011/05/Energizer-Energi-to-Go-pic-1.jpg
^ Just an idea.. I would substitute the lithium batteries with rechargables so that you can charge those up overnight and have them ready for the day too.
I have the stock battery and it can last about 19hrs on moderate use (10hrs on heavy) on Virtuous Quattro overclocked to 1.2GHz. Never had my phone die on me even when I ran Sense ROMs (after a 3 day break in period =p)

Thats normal if youre able to get a day of usage of your battery.

I bought a 2500mAh battery on eBay. Same size as stock, but it does not last much longer (~15% longer?) than the stock battery I had. I got the device lasting longer by installing the MildWild (based on Redux2) custom ROM. This ROM gives approximately an 80% increase of battery life (almost an additional day).
