Well, I've gone ahead and pulled the trigger on an extended battery and back cover for my S710 since I got it used and the battery is half way after a full day usage and I need more since I'm not always near a charger for a few days - though I am happy it can charge via miniUSB since most people have one for their digital cameras.
So I shall update once I receive it and we shall see truly how uncomfortable it will be with the larger battery door. And it was only $25 shipped on eBay. 2250mAh of goodness will soon be arriving.

you mind putting up some pictures of how it looks with the extended battery? side views, and comparisons with the orgiinal side by side shots if possible.
oh and what kind use do you use it for, do you have bluetooth on, wifi on? or both off? etc.

more info here
I have mine already a couple of days. By mistake they send me the wrong lid , I got the one from the S630. Wow, what a biiiig device that is. I'm happy having a Vox
So, they immediately send me another cover, waiting for it now to arrive....
Woah, looks big with the extended battery and cover on it, lol. Hopefully it's still useable. birdibird, when you get your cover - post up some pics, also if you could tell us where you got it, how much and if your new cover still has the rubbery HTC feel to it (when it arrives).
I'll post up some pics of mine when it comes in!
I was wondering how many days of use do you have with those 2250-2300MAh batteries??
I read that someone bought them from megacapacity, others from eBay, others from gpsforless, and others from BoxWave
Can we make list from what of those batteries bought from where, went good and waht went bad?? also advising the other from wich ebayers we should not buy?
Is it allowed by the forum's rules?
Think it would be usufull to everyone
I bought one from eBay and one from BoxWave. They are both the exact same thing. I also still have mine for sale, used for roughly one week. The only subtle issue with them both - is that the contact pads are recessed too much. I had to pad them with copper in order for the pins on the Vox to reach properly. You can also pull the pins out of the Vox a few mm which will assist.
Thanks H4waii
for your cooperation!
ANy other experiences?? Fro what I remeber you where quite a few who bought an extended battery...
Hello! I use extended battery for about a year. What to say... It gives me a chance not to think bout battery at last one day using Vox (calls, GPRS, music, reading and also playing games).
To say, I'm going to buy one more extended battery, because ... I like my Vox but such battery can disappear from the market...
Hi Everyone,
Any one got this already:
http://www.easydevices.co.uk/pp/T-M...OMPACT_IV_OFFICIAL_EXTENDED_LIFE_BATTERY.html
It says: In Stock
Can anyone please share some views about performance (GPS,camera, etc.)?
And, what is the most important, does it significantly improve everyday device life?
Thanks.
ooo nice, though that is alot of money for only 1/3rd increase in power,
hi,
yeah, I personally think the price is horrendous.
that is why I want to check whether it`s worth that price.
For £50 you can get 10x 900mAh batteries plus charger ;-))
actually a 50% increase in battery life. i have the Dianond version - well worth the money in my opinion.
Is there anybody who knows when to buy in Germany?

Ok,
I was waiting long enough now, hoping I will get cheaper one from eBay.
I`ve found only 1 seller offering 1800 mAh with ugly humpy cover, so I`ve decided to go for Expansys original one.
Ordered on 1st of Jan, paid £62 with delivery (bit expensive, but I`ll put it on as the Xmas present for myself ), expecting it tomorrow.
I`ll put some photos probably tomorrow evening and put few words about its performance later on (I need to test it first).
Happy New Year to all!

Expansys runs the business all around the world, I`m sure what they offer in the UK is available in Germany as well.
There you go mate: http://www.expansys.de/p.aspx?i=171125
It is 63.99 Euro + delivery.
Cheers.
If I have the T Mobile version (MDA) and I got the Diamond back cover... would it fit?
Like this one - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-Touch-Dia...14&_trkparms=72:1301|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318

Hi,
No, I`m affraid it won`t fit. MDA Compact IV has rounded corners, while Diamond is strict rectangle.
There were a few threads about it already.
Hi,
Got this one from GPSforless
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....name=STRK:MEWNX:IT&viewitem=&salenotsupported
and it fits the MDA Compact and the GPS seems to work.
Will post once I have used it a bit.
Regards
Hi,
Did a Tom Tom test today. Basically Tom Tom running in demo mode, but with a GPS signal (varied from 3 to 6 sats), backlight on auto. GPRS was on and email was downloading every two hours, weather every hour. Got a total of 5.5 hours. Battery percentages for each hour shown below.
1.93%
2.64%
3.55%
4.44%
5.20%
I did a test with the standard battery before and it was about 2.5 hours.
My MDA Compact III used to get only 4.5 hours so with the extended battery the MDA Compact IV is actually better!!
The extra bulk may be an issue for some I suppose, though I will mainly use this battery for GPS use on my bike. The normal battery usually runs okay for me on day to day use of the phone.
Regards

OK, I`ve been using this extended battery for 10 days now.
With 10 texts, 20 minutes of calls a day and 3G switched off it lasts for 3 full days (72h), which I find is very good, compared to 30h on original battery.
The new cover looks very good. It has black/mate finish and has got an ornament (see photos).
My MDA Compact IV is about 3mm thicker and a bit heavier, but it hasn`t lost his sleek and flat look, which was the reason I bought MDA Compact not Daimond. Also, I`ve got a feeling that new size and weight makes it is laying better in my hand.
I had to go for another car holder. First, I though that my Compact with new battery (thicker) will fit into cradle for Touch Pro, but NOT, it was too loose.
So, I`ve bought universal one that will fit from small Nokia to big PDA (can give link to ebay seller, if anyone is interested).
I think the new battery+cover is worth its money.
Cheers.
more photos
here are more photos chaps.
I forgot to add:
It is ORIGINAL HTC extended 1340mAh battery with new back cover, especially for T-Mobile MDA Compact IV.
Very good quality, not cheap HK stuff. And NO AWFUL HUMP!
GPS works OK, absolutely no change compared to the original 900mAh.
No other issues noticed.
I`ll keep you updated when I notice anything.
Very helpful, thanks Tom - I think I might go for this. From where did you purchase the battery/cover? Also, do you have the original HTC pouch - does it still fit inside?
Thanks

Hi,
There are two on-line shops offering these extended capacity batteries:
Easydevices - http://www.easydevices.co.uk/pp/T-M...OMPACT_IV_OFFICIAL_EXTENDED_LIFE_BATTERY.html
Expansys - http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=171125
I went for one with Expansys, it is a bit dearer than Easydevices one, but I found Expansys more trustworthy and besides if you look at "Easydevices Terms & Conditions", you will notice that if you (for some reason) have changed your mind and want to send it back, they will deduct 20% as a "administration charge", so they will refund price minus 20%, which you can calculate yourself easily.
I didn`t know what I`m gonna get buying over the net, in terms of quality and peformance, cos I couldn`t find any opinions, nor feedback.
So in case, I didn`t like it I went for Expansys one, they don`t do such a "small print tricks".
It will fit original pouch, but for me it`s a bit too tight, especially when someone is calling you and you strugling to take it out to answer.
I`m using "temporary" pouch at the moment - it is SonyEricsson`s and still looking for a nice sleek leather one that will fit my new fatty toy.
That looks sleeker than my "hump" back. Although I personally wanted the double capcity so it does not bother me so much.
Regards

Yeah, but there is no photo and it doesn`t even say what kind of backcover is included - with ugly hump or flat?
Is there any one, who went for it, to share some info?
I received mine for my mda C.IV last monday and after a week of use, it was worth every penny. It took a day or 2 to get use to the 3mm addition but i now get 2-3 days use out of my phone between charges were before i barley got 1. Highly advise everyone with battery issues to get one!!!

Come on now, this isnt ebay.
Sorry thread closed.
Hi folks. I recently sold off my Google Nexus One and have some remaining accessories. I hope this is an acceptable place to sell this stuff (I usually find myself on the devs boards). This is my Craigslist posting, thought it might be relevant to a few people here. I'm in NYC, and will be happy to mail it in. Please send a DM if you're interested in any of these items.
(Here's my ad if you want the photos: http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/mob/1969155308.html)
Feel free to pick and choose, so here's what I'd like to get rid of:
**Drop me an email with your own price for the items.**
Batteries:
.. 2 NEW batteries
.. 1 USED battery (for about 3 months)
Back Cover:
.. 2 NEW back covers
.. 1 USED back cover (mint condition)
Charger:
.. NEW Home charger kit including Micro USB cable and Plug-in wall charger (cable can be used for charging from computer as well)
Earpiece:
.. NEW Double earpiece (like normal headphones) with a built-in microphone for hands-free use
Feel free to ask any questions as well.
Thanks,
Allen
what kind of batteries are they? OEM?
How much for back cover? I don't want to low ball you. Also anyone know were I can get a working mainboard?
I'd also like to know how much is the back cover?
I want:
1 NEW back cover
1 NEW batterie (if it's HTC original product)
Send me the quote by PM.
still selling those batteries?
I'm selling my droid 2. Its in perfect working order, Clean ESN, rooted running liberty rom. Has a small nick on the bezel, barely noticeable. Does not come with microsd card but does come with the following accessories.
New Car Dock w/ Auxiliary Cable
New Multimedia Dock
Wall Charger
Extended Battery with Extended Battery door (verizon extended battery)
Regular battery door
2 additional normal capacity batteries.
Looking for $250, but I'm open to reasonable offers. I currently have an Ebay listing with pictures
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=220814225392
I would rather make the sale here outside of ebay, but the auction shows the pics. I have 100% positive feedback, and would prefer to deal through paypal here as well (its just safer for all parties involved). Continental US only. Will ship priority either the same day payment is received, or next postal day (depending on what time of day payment is received).
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks for looking
Bump, price dropped to $200
Well if it was a Global my friend would probably be interested in it, but alas…
yea its not a global sorry. If your friend is interested in the accessories alone, then maybe we could work something out (minus one of the regular batteries and original door since I would need that if/when I sell it to someone else)
