Yes, me. Yesterday was PDA-XMAS for me :lol:
Bought this Battery ( just in one word: WONDERFUL ) and my external keyboard.
The only thing what i have to do now is to create a small leather pocket for the keyboard and the extra battery to fit on the throwsers :shock:
This battery can also be recharged seperately in the cradle without the XDA II.
Cheers,

Normally after watching movies ( 320 x 240 ) with full speaker sound the XDA Battery went down after one movie ( around 1 and a half hour ) with that battery you can watch almost the whole night
Because of that i was using the headphones earlier to save battery power - this is now obsolete.
However, this is maybe a stupid question, but does anybody know if there does exists some kind of portable solar energy recharger ? It would be good if the empty battery could be recharged during the usage of the 2nd battery without any 110/220V recharging modul. ( Even if it takes some time longer )
Cheers,
Scorpion
That sure is one expensive battery :shock: One could probably buy 3 XDA II batteries
Scorpion...
This isn't that oversized, bulging battery that comes with a special backplate is it? I can't tell from the picture... The picture seems to imply it's the same dimensions as the standard XDA battery. Is it? Ie, will it simply pop in as a replacement, without requiring a special/new battery backplate?

Poporta PDA Extended Battery (XDAII) 2600mAh
I have one simple question about this battery. Does it fit in the standard himalaya battery place under the backplate or does it add to the volume of the device? I don't want to have a enormous thing in my pocket.
Thanks !
This website sells it cheaper and said something about comes with back cover.

More news on that battery: It's probaby the same as the topic, which means it comes with a bulge on the back cover. Too good to be true as a slim 2600mAh.

Edit: Somebody is making 2000mAh battery: Go to the first page.

Hello I have searched the threads looking for a rom and radio which will allow me to reach a full day's use or more using my extended battery. I have my unit set to download rss feeds every 15 mins as well as emails. Of course it will be running software such as SPB shell which will be updating the weather as well. So far with the current 6.1 rom which I am running along with radio 1.18 the unit doesn't seem to hold a candle to this use. I have read in other threads of the 1.18 radio being the best just would like to know which is the latest 6.1 with the best battery consumption. All help is appreciated in advance
On my personal experience
Toml 8.2, 8.5 and 8.9 are very god stable ROM´s with great battery life
Test them all and decide for yourself!
Hey I am at work at the moment during a flashing to radio 1.18 I lost all my info on the device (I didnt read the instructions had my sd card in slot (long story)). Anyhow was wondering what was on average your usuage and consumption of battery. I am debating buying a bigger battery (bigger than the one I have) which I am eyeing on Ebay. As you can tell I can't wait to have my unit flashed and with a reliable battery life. I just recieved the phone and love it just hate carrying around a charger
When I was using the recommended ROM´s my battery life was aprox of 1 day and a half using:
1hr WIFI
2hr Bluetooth
A lot of calls
With my original battery from 2005.
I would not buy a bigger one, Unis is big enough to put a bigger battery, I would buy another original battery.
After many tests I've gone to Tomals 8.2 Vanilla rom, It's stable good at everything and its vanilla so you install what you want
aktopshooter,
I have several batteries. Under constant useage (no wifi/gprs/bt/ir, backlight on, phone on, SD in)
Best PU16A 1620mAh lasts 3hr 30mins
My only 3200mAh (double-size battery) lasts 6hr 10mins [I bought of eBay]
I repeat, this is under constant useage (test conditions) with backlight continuously on.
I usually tend to carry two normal batteries if I know I'm going to need juice, rather than the double-sized one for same reasons as Orb, Uni is big enough without a huge battery sticking out!
I would like to thank all who replied to my question. I have loaded a tomal rom and also started to use my regular battery versus my extended my battery. I was blow away by the normal battery for some reason it seems to out perform my extended battery. I am easily getting through a day with out even worrying about charging the battery through out the day. I am downloading mail every 15 mins and checking rss feeds every thirty mins plus lots of texts and calls the battery handles it well. My extended battery is nice but I rather the slim oem battery it just makes the phone feel hell of sexy and appealing

Unfortunately, Uni is not known for its great battery life compared to other devices simply due to the demands of a large screen. Various ROMs will be more or less economical when it comes to battery, but don't expect a huge improvement.
As far as getting a battery on eBay, be very careful. The last battery I purchased charges and drains at the same speed.
Also don't buy batteries from dealextreme, they are crap
Hi!!
Reading this post, I will go a little "off topic", but where to buy on line good battery.

wm6.1 have better battery life than 6.5
best for me 8.2 version
I switched to samsung about a year ago after having htc phones for years mainly because I was disappointed with the battery life.
Has it improved at all or do the latest models still only last about a day with light / medium use? (bluetooth on, phone calls for 2 hours tops, gps for 30 mins)
I think this board only talks about HTC devices.
But today the battery life of the devices are smaller, because the OSs and applications are using too much the processor.
I'm asking about the htc models. I'm a bit disapointed with some of the samsungs hardware and features (even though battery is great) and am thinking of returning to the htc brand, just wondering if the battery life has been improved on the later htc models.
Thanks
Huh, sorry.
They are improving with the use of the new Snapdragon chip set like on the HD2. See the Leo section for it's battery comments & details...
battery capacity of the smart phone always is a problem due to its high processor usage !
i think it is a good idea to return to HTC from samsumg, at Andriod in HTC is more attractive.
Did you ever consider to buy an extended battery for ur high usage?
I bought this battery 11.4.2011.
Voltage : 3.7v
Capacity : 1600mAh
- Brand new replacement battery.
- Same size as original battery, don't need to change battery cover.
- Controller IC, control Switches, temperature Fuse protection.
Tested 1 month...seems better then original.
Better life time...
I will see how long this battery will have good condition.
You can find that battery on ebay. The seller is "good.life1314".
http://cgi.ebay.com/Brand-new-htc-P...Accessories&hash=item4156097690#ht_1873wt_905

this is 78% more capacity than original one, is time life at least 30% better compared to original one?
wats the stand by hours? normal use? internet use?
I sold my Diamond because of battery lasting issue... working only hours for a smartphone can be called more a laptop cuz has the same working time (on hard usage) this phone is so good and its stock battery such a fail.. pitty. Buying a new battery is not a good economy strategy .. i mean more money added to the phone. Not too expensive but hey.. this phone is from 2008.. and it's getting 2012 is it worth?... don't know just an opinion.
P.S. Greetings, former HTC Diamond owner
i bought that battery and it has at least 1hour power more than oem
