Well the official dock is often sold with interchangeable inserts one for the normal battery and one for the (im assuming official, when i comes out) extended battery

It has. Check the HTC Accessories site...

i will get the original cradle because of the great stylefactor. also the 3,5mm-jack is an argument for that cradle for those who need it.
the shop where i can order it wants 32€, way too much in my opinion, i will have to wait for cheaper times

it does seem too much in my opinion
but it also looks so sexyyyy lol

Yup, quite sexy. Unfortunately it's also wasting a lot of space on the desk - I doubt I'll buy it.

which shop?

german distributor shop where i can order it (i have a little job in the business...)

I have a third party desktopcharger, made by Veripart.
costs 39euro and it has a slot for extra battery to charge.
it looks good and works great. worth every euro it costs

i'd pay up to 30€ for it.. too bad it costs more.

@ diamondMflexx
pictures pictures please

Here's a review (in Dutch) of the Veripart Cradle with extra battery slot, including pictures.

anybody know of a place where i can get an extra battery and cradle together for a discounted price..?

pretty nice my friend. Still it DO looks a quite big with that battery.
Where did you get it from ? how much does it costs?
Congrats my friend.

nice pics man but how about price, delivery time and the most imprtanta battery perfomance? also does it fit only on diamond or on mda compact iv too?

Sweet!
So how's GPS? Any differences?

The fact is that makes phone bigger..but i don't care, because the standby time is bigger than 2 days! The price is 25 euro. A friend of mine bought it for me from London. When i find a reliable web site selling this battery, i'll post it to check this out.

Regarding the gps, i can't answer you right now because it's the third day i own the battery, so i didn't use gps. By the way I'll inform you soon about that.

Check this -> http://www.superetrader.co.uk/replacement-extended-battery-1800mah-for-htc-touch-diamond-p-3518.html

nothing new about the performance?
I found it here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350109840917
I payed on sunday.. monday was dispached with traking number on 1st of april. Now I'm waiting the package.
GPS works with the tinny mod posted also here on XDA... that one with the little square of aluminium foil.

hrmm, if they did one with a flat back i'd be tempted, ...
how much extra weight does it add? i'm using a magnetic car holder at the moment, and wondering if it can cope with the extra weight...
i suppose its too soon, but does it hold its charge as well? whenever i've bought third party batteries for anything, tend to find they seem to loose charge quicker, even with greater capacities

Any more information on this battery? I'm considering buying since it is on the cheap side. Does the Diamond still get warm after extended use?

It is's warming because of the procesor.... means that you have programs or proceses that keep the procesor running. Change your Radio to 1.09.25.23 or the stock one it's advertised as: the best for manny ppl.
During charghing it is normal to be worm at some point, where is almoust full.
And for new info's... my Cameron Sino 1800 battery is in custom now. I will post in a few days (4-5 days) conclusions and pictures.
I bought it from ebay.co.uk and it's been shipped from H.Kong.
stay tunned

yes, it does!

this one is already in the custom. Probably friday or monday I will have it. And as soon I will have it... I'll post a review .
Anyway.. GPS will work only with that aluminium square next to camera. But I'm happy...
I payed on 30, departure 1st of april, in custom on 6, and now any hour...the post men.
Package was also with tracking number... nice deal i might say.

GPS
What do you mean with the aluminum square?Do i have to do somethin in order to have gps working?

I don't know how to change the radio, I'm not too literate when it comes to everything about phones (pm me if you don't mind). But anyway I did buy this battery yesterday. I too I will post my review on here after I recieve it in a couple of weeks.

Similar 1200mah
I bought a similar looking 1200mah standard size battery where I live in Taiwan and it does seem to offer some additional battery life. I would estimate about +10%. If this is for real could be even better.

second buyer as the diamond in assistance, he does not know if the battery is better

25€ ?!? of course this is fake, don't buy it

hm, there are about 14 buyers where only one buyer has left a negative review (but I dont know for what reason cause I dont understand italian)....
has someone from this board ordered one? if so, check the battery capacity with powerguard...
best regards

IT means it's of the lowest quality, not according to description

I contacted some users who had bought this battery: everybody told me the battery has NOT a longer duration than the original...
forget this item

How do I switch to English? If it's possible.

External battery charger

Can anyone recommend a decent external charger for the Desire HD battery? Thinking of getting a spare battery but want a way of charging outside the phone.
Cheers.

yeah im also looking for a good external charger.. anyone have suggestions?

Have a look at this desktop cradle. I like its design:

that's for the Desire isn't it?

I guess it's better waiting until China DHD launches for good accessories

Yeah, you can usually find these things on eBay for pennies. Maybe in a week or two...

I have one of these that I occasionally use for my G1. It isnt amazing and charges very slowly, but with a high quality battery it should help a little on the go!

Do not you think a direct charger like Energizer XP8000 instead of externa battery charger?

Did someone have ever used a charger like this?

It's a solar portable charger with a battery of 1900mAh.
I'd like to buy it but I don't know where... do you know a online shop that sell it and send it in italy?

Ok I'm in as well

i found this one
ebay Item number: 120640014972 (new users aka me cannot post external links )
which is a battery powered portable charger rated at 5000maH and charges the battery in the phone.
that battery cover worries me so i dont want to have to open it too often. also it means you dont have to wait for the device to reboot. not sure how accurate that 5000mah is, but i should be able to fit that and my phone in my pocket for a couple of hours to charge.
not ideal, but i dont trust non-brand batteries, especially if im importing them from china since i have no legal comeback if it explodes in my phone because they are not a UK company.

This is the link -
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....e-All-Categories&_fvi=1&_rdc=1#ht_2465wt_1139
It does look really good actually. I like that you can charge two devices at one too. Anyone have any experience of these? I think I'll order one...

Mobilefun do one for around £20 that docks the phone and has a slot for a spare battery to charge aswell. Not in stock last I looked, but ill be buying one of those.

Question replacement battery

Good grief! I bought an OEM battery off Ebay and its as bad as the one I painstakingly took out. How do I get a GOOD battery. Both Amazon and Ebay don't tell the manufacturer date OR answer questions when I asked them when it was made.
Thanks for any ideas!!

Try ufixit maybe?

The chances of getting original battery are pretty low on marketplace like amazon or ebay.

Ebay, a battery that was "salvaged". I doubt if any new OEM batteries are available for older out of production models...

I would recommend you to use the same battery if it is not swollen.
Just check whether it is giving 3.6 or 3.7 Volts through multimeter on
the battery itslef and at the BMS. Likely the battery is not damaged
most of the time but the component on the BMS is damaged.
Like the one I'm doing below. (Nokia 8 Sirocco Battery)
The second image ------ shows battery on the right that is ordered from Amazon which is totally swollen now
but the one on the left has been repaired by me using a salvaged BMS from same handset battery which is
very important because if not then the handset would not charge it properly. Also it shows correct voltage and
my handset now works perfectly/
