Im looking for one which does not affect GPS, and is not as expensive as the one on Expansys (around £55) looking to sepnd less the £10.

To solve the Gps problem with a think extend battery, you need to stick an aluminum on the upper right corner [a thread said]

I was looking at something like this:

is it better to buy the original (middle link) or is the replica (last link) okay? would it damage the diamond?

im thinking i should go with the original battery?
unless there is a battery with more power, but same size??
hoping you guys can help!
Thanks

hi

http://cgi.ebay.at/externer-Akku-f-...photoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713.m153.l1262
i can fully charging my diamond two times

there is a battery that gives you a extra 100 mah but don't know where to find it anymore however.
I'm using the officiele batterypack from htc it self.
2600 mah. it's not so much as other ones but thisone gives you de double amp, the same as your phone adaptor. Most of them give only 500 like a usb port.

MugenPower 1000mAh for Touch Diamond: same size as the 900mAh, no need for special cover ... MugenPower are known for high quality batteries -- I for one have their 3000mAh version for the Diamond. I don't trust no-name batts, especially off ebay (and I do a lot of ebay shopping).

or try some of your local shops somewhere or google products search for your country

thanks for your help everyone
i ended up buying an original HTC battery as a back up, from ebay for £7

2X2500mAh + charger with USB-out at ebay.de for 18.99€

Hey,
got them yesterday, using one today. Hard to compare something with flashing new ROMs etc., but they seem at least not worse then the original one

Have a look at item-no: 220816973218 at ebay.de
The price is amazing and they arrived during one week. They use 4.2V instead of 3.7, hope that is not damaging the Sensation but I saw this voltage at other batteries as well.
When phone is off, not hibernate, LED stays orange even when fully charged.
So after one day of using I would recommend this anyway.
Edit: brand is GaliliO

I think this is more like 1400mah than 2500...
Take it to some electronic shop and get it tested while it's fully charged. Youw ill see most of these will not come over 1200 yet alone 2000.

I know these specs are most likely not to be true. Anyway, the batteries are still not worse then the original one, I think even a bit better, and maybe they are getting even better with a few charging cycles. That still has to be determined.
Anyway, the price is still amazing for 2 batteries with charger, even with only 1400mAh which has been not proven, yet.

I would not believe that they are really 2500 mAh. If you are lucky they will not die soon. Usually if I buy a chinese battery they don't last long.

well, you can moan all you want about those chinese batteries... they still work great and last about twice as long as the stock one. Also the LED problem has resolved itself, but that was probably a problem with CWM, anyway.

Deji Batteries

I saw a thread on a different forum talking about how Deji batteries are better than stock. But they're the same mah so it makes no sense to me.

So I found this one
http://www.dinodirect.com/lg-p990-battery-rechargeable-li-ion-1500mah.html
For the P990 (Which we can use for the p999 right?)
Anyone know anything else about these batteries?

Bought one for a Droid pro and w550i. The w550 mah must be a lie seeing as the weight don't make sense... says it has double the capacity but thats impossible
But the bp6x is at least as good as stock. Not sure yet if better, hard to say. Possibly some strange reporting of % but that could be my phone...
That said both are li-ion and mugen is polymer... what do you think? They look quality but I need to test more....
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA

Yes, the P990 will work with the G2X P999.
I bought a battery a week ago... maybe you should have posted this earlier lol ;p.

I wouldn't worry. Of the ones I've tried the batteries are at least as good as stock...
it's just that you can't get more mah into a battery without increasing it's weight (and usually size( so some mah will be false. That's why a Mugen increased capacity usually pushes out the back cover a bit on some phones and so my case no longer fits on my i9000.
Also I notice the status on my DroidPro isn't reporting accurately.
In short, they're still a typical chinese lie but they're at least as good as stock.
Took me a while to figure out the BS but in short there is generally no way to get increased capacity without more size unless talking about much older phones.
edit: Need more testing but as far as I can see these are the best you can get (allowing for price)

For those look specifically for replace THUNDERBOLT batteries (not Rezound)

Enjoy

Thanks for sharing but unfortantly for me it is the 1400 mAh , battery sucks for time use.
I purchased the 1800 mAh from nepsoulja on eBay, 2 for just a hair over $10 and gets me 18 hours + with hard use. (comes with a charger too.) Been using it for a few months now and no problems.

I just won an auction from the same guy for the 2 1800mah batteries and an external charger for $9.75 including shipping . I guess after a week or so I can report back on the quality.

Sounds pretty slick, although how can you be sure it's not a knock off. You don't want to get screwed over with batteries..

I bought the extended battery direct from a Verizon store for 26 a couple weeks ago.

Would like to wait n see Mpj Extended Batteries for S5 SM-G900

My wife is very likely to switch her S3 for a new S5 next month. We are dead impressed with their 8500mah battery on my Note 3 so far, so she would also like to give it a shot on her S5. Anyone here knows whether/when will they push out extended batteries for SV? Thank you.

Ok, I asked them directly yesterday and they said it is going to pop up within one or two weeks of release of S5.

MPJ going to have 4300 mAh/8600 mAh extended battery. The 4300 mAh without NFC will ship on 15 April, with NFC on 20 April and 8600 mAh probably on 25 April.

What is the price difference between NFC and non-NFC?

With NFC normally costs around $3 more than non-NFC

How does that battery fit in with the normal cover? It says so on the order page... I'm guessing its fake?

Thanks for the information. We already pre-ordered 4300mAh as replacement. Got the SM-G900V and the battery life is quite good on it so far, but still we will have to plug it in before bedtime, and that was playing games, surfing the web, downloading apps, texting, etc.

Any review out there yet?

Not yet, but mine is able to get little bit more out of it so far.

The 8200mAh extended battery is available now:highfive:
