1200mAh battery - SPRINT ONLY - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories

Hello!
Just noticed this battery on sale at eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-1200mAh-BAT...4|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318|301:0|293:1|294:50
I wonder if is this another scam like the "1100" one...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445050
Assuming this one is real, would it work with all (incl. non Sprint) Touch Diamonds?
[UPDATE: COMPATIBLE WITH SPRINT DIAMONDS ONLY]

This seller have better reputation than one with fake 1100mAh battery... and it's from UK so can't blame Royal Mail for slow delivery

Since when was California in UK?

My bad...
...not from UK...

Looks great! I've gone for it let you know when it arrives! This could really be the amswer to all my battery problems

Careful buying this for the original Diamond. I think the Sprint version's slightly deeper so might allow for a larger battery? Could be wrong

won't work on standard diamond. sprint diamond is 1350 capacity. it is thicker battery door as standard.

Oh well... wishful thinking!!

it will be a good idea to change the title of this topic since this is NOT standard size battery for HTC Diamond.

It clearly states in the item description that it only fits the mentioned models.
So if you do buy this for a normal gsm diamond = you will also need to buy a thicker battery cover in order to house it
Good idea to change this thread's title I would think as it may be misleading to some people

Mhh, I bought this battery in Germany. It will arrive next week. I wonder whether this fits into my HTC Victor.

Hello Fayoumi,
please let us know if this battery also fits to your MDA compact IV. I read that the MDA compact IV is comparable to the Sprint Touch Diamond from the U.S. Thanks in advance!

i've bought the 1100mAh battery from the ebay-seller posted in fort post.
conclusions: he send me a 1000mAh instead the 1100mAh battery. but it seems to be garbage - the 1000mAh battery testresult is the smae as the 900mAh original standard battery
-----------------
DON'T BUY IT!

1400mAh battery for Qtek 2020/xda 2

hi,
i visited this link and saw the 1400mAh battery or the Qtek 2020, wanted to know, if anyone has used this, and if so, how reliable is it, and how much is the increase in battery power ?

Thanks

I have it
I have had it for some while now. It certainly works ok, but as normal when you have the other one in the charger you do not remember if it last longer than the original one. If I had been a scientist I would have tried out how many minutes of music it lasted compared to the original but I am not.
I'm thinking of getting one as well.

Thanks Dyntak!
Have ordered 2
Any chance you can do a test to compare results against the standard 1200mAh version?
Also, could you let us know what ROM version you're running for the test as that will make a difference too.
Thanks!
Any updates
Any one have any updates on the 1400mah vs 1200mah battery?
You can get 2400mAh batteries if you don't mind the extra bulge in the back.

1340 mAh Battery availible in Germany

Hey folks, i just received a email that expansis has shipped out my 1340 mAh battery incl a new cover. This could mean that the battery is finally availiable in germany! looking forward to test it!
is this battery shipped with the backside cover? If yes, is this cover fitting on a O2 XDA diamond?
Hi! I own a o2 XDA Diamond, and yes it is shipping with a fitting backside cover! Here is the link to expansis, remember this is no ad:
http://www.expansys.ch/p.aspx?i=166204
that cover wount fit on your xda diamond!
check this post to compare the backsides: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2605740&postcount=19
Sad to hear this man... has anyone a link to a product 1340mAh or 1700 mAh with a cover that fits my GERMAN VERSION of the XDA Diamond from o2?
I will receive my battery incl. cover the next days, email's out for me as well. I am curious to see, what is different. I just hope, that one can still use it...
Anyone already tried?
Also got an email from Expansys today, should receive mine on Monday .
have been using the offical 1340mAh battery for 2 weeks now.
it gives new life to my Diamond, I bought a Samsung Omnia because of its big battery and were going to sell my Diamond. But then I found Omnia is not as easy to use (only its camera is better than Diamond). I bought the battery before I sold my phone, and I end up sell the Omnia.
How much thicker does the Diamond get with the 1340mAh battery?
I wonder it is same as Touch Pro since they share the same battery. Why not trying Mugen 1000 mAh standard size battery? It really improves and worth trying if you still prefer slim size of Diamond.
if i remember correctly, the extended battery is +3mm and the original size is 11mm so that makes it 14mm. while the Touch pro is 18mm.
hey. received my ext. battery today.
german o2 xda owners: hands off! it doesn't work in our phone. i mean, it works, but you won't be able to put your cover on. it doesn't fit.
anyone in germany with original diamond in need for ext. battery? 40€ incl shipping to germany
and yes, it makes the "original" diamond around 3mm thicker!
I thought O2 Germany was going to release an expanded battery itself....what happened to that project ? They said "end of August"

yes, the new 1340mAh battery is indeed the same one used by the Touch Pro.
How much help would the extra 100mAh do? not much I guess.
I also have the o2 XDA Diamond (should be with me this week) and was looking for another battery - found a few for the for the HTC but now I know the backs are different this will be hard - I originally thought of ebay - but having second thoughts now
Has anyone got a link for the extended battery and back for the O2 version of this phone please
In Germany I found some threads before the following link for the extended battery for the XDA Diamond:
http://www.expansys.de/p.aspx?i=173907
But for me it's too expensive, too.
and that is not the original extended battery. it's thicker than the 3mm people talked about. the phone looks hideous with those inofficial extended batteries.

Looking for a standard size battery ...

Hi,
I'm looking for a standard-size battery with more than 900mAh, with no effects on GPS performance, possibly cheap (am I asking too much? !-))
Do you have any suggestion?
Do you have any trusted ebuyer?
Thanks

http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=BASI15HTCX1
Here you go. I have used seidio batteries in all my phones they are of good quality. the 1500mah is for a diamond that already has the extended back the 100mah is for the slimmer diamond
thanks for the info. I was actually gonna start a thread on this.
so, should i assume that there are no batteries available from HTC that fits into the diamond without the need for a thicker back cover, apart from the 900maH ?
The first suggested link is about a 1000 mAh battery that "Fits in existing space" ... but 34$ + shipping it's too expensive for me
What about 900mAh ebay's battery? Are they similar to the original one?
To date i have not seen anything from htc that does'nt require a new battery cover. I myself am not to keen on purchasing random batteries from ebay. I like most fell for the 1100mah battery scam in the link bellow
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445050
After waiting more than a month i received a battery that was a supposedly 1000mah. After a week of use its worst than the original battery. The other batteries ive researched disrupt the gps or have a monstrous hunchback battery cover instead of a smooth flat battery cover. Your only other choice would be expansys

... I wrote to 5 users that bpught this battery
has anyone used this 1200mAh battery? can they confirm it actually is 1200 and fits into the OEM Slim cover?
if so this can probably solve a lot of peoples battery issues
I don't know much about battery making, but with the standard size of the diamond battery, about how much juice can they honestly pack in there? Wouldn't you think that HTC would pack in a beefier battery if they could? I mean, they did released the 1350mah extended battery but it comes with a new back cover...so I don't know if we're being screwed again with the 1200mah battery from the link above.
I wrote to a buyer and he told me that this battery fits perfect and it's very good, I'm thinking to buy it, but I don't know if this seller ship worldwide... maybe you could ask him. Bye.

I recived the first response (from gabl****):

-Any problems
He has been using this battery for a month
hum nice if it is true, it is a really good deal !
It's seems to be too good to be a true especially after latest scam.
I don' t speak Italian but it's seems that the seller does't ship internationally.
I recived the second reply (from roll*****)
-it lasts more
-same sizes
-GPS fix-time is the same
-nothing to report
... it sounds good!
2 new replies from new_h******* and
massimil********
new_h******* says that the battery lasts less than the original one!!!
massimil******** says that the battery lasts the same than the original one
Lol maybe it is a 900mAh inside, like the other topic
Here you can even find a 1340mAh battery in the standard size at least thats what they say when I emailed them.

question - biggest battery that fits in standard case

hi, what is the biggest battery / biggest capacity you can buy that you can use with the standard HTC case?
i would like to buy an original battery after reading peoples comments about GPS and excessive heat, and i dont want to make the phone any bigger.
the htc website has the 1100mah as a direct replacement. although is it really going to make much difference going from 900mah to 1100mah... what real world difference is it going to make? like 2 hours?
i think its strange how no-one knows this.
The move from 900 to 1100 would be very minimal.
Just get a 1340? It really doesn't make it too thick.
I ordered this one.... 1500maH....
http://www.amazon.com/Seidio-Innoce..._1_2?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1249321047&sr=8-2
It says I dont need a need back cover and it fits properly in existing space. Have not received it yet. I had to get it for the wife as I have moved on to the TD2 and she is using my TD now with the old batt which is on it's last legs....
Double post... sorry...
eskasi, let us know if it fits.
Thanks
I think 1340 mAh is the battery with most power you can get into a standard back case. I'm gonna order a 1800 in few days (http://www.mytrendyphone.se/shop/batteri-htc-touch-14547p.html) and that really needed a new back case, tho I don't think it will look too bad, will be easier to hold the phone and stuff.
@ArtieQ:
I wouldn't buy that battery if I was you.
You should check my 1800mAh battery + new back cover:

has this arrived yet? mind giving us some feedback? looks good, ive got an ignito aswell
@Srem:
My English is not good so I can't give clear feedback - I hope that you can understand what I say:
1. The battery is bigger - must change the back cover ( included ). My diamond is more heavy and now I can take it more easier in my palm.
2. I can use Engery Rom nearly 4 days with new battery - or 6 days with new Cloudyfa's rom ( I've just tested with Phone function only )
3. Have no problem with GPS with new cover.
4. It isn't hot when do reset / hard-reset.
kinda new to modding of phones so just wondering if this will work with my phone or not, ive got the p3051

Does anyone knows if HTC Touch Diamond Battery size is the same for HTC Touch Diamond Sprint (or HTC Touch Diamond Pro) ??
Also, anyone who has bought the 1500 mAh can tell if the battery is good and if it fits on the HTC Diamond?

i remember having a HTC diamond in India.... the stock phone came with a 1350mAh battery.... i was surprised too....
The battery has arrived, can anyone recommend a program that can measure amps? I tried batlog but can't read it properly.
I charged it up fully and am running the GPS until it dies as the GPS rarely gets beyond two hours usually.
OK, so the the Diamond ran for about three hours before the 10% warning, so it feels like the battery has more capacity than the OEM. I will post up my impressions after a few days of real world use.
I think that at the price of 8Euro it is good value and would recommend this battery as a replacement.
The battery is actually marked as 1600mA.
It's not 1600mah
I'd be wary of anything bought from hongkong as they like hacking their tech. I got an mp3 player that was hacked to look like 32gig capacity but it was 16gig. Wouldn't surprise me if you had a funky battery. 3 hours is not a lot as I can get that out of my original phone. takes about 3 hours to drive from my house to the southwest and my phone is still kicking.

I would be inclined to agree, I don't think for a second that this battery is 1600mA, but it holds up well enough for the price. I have since checked the charge time and it's similar to the original.
So, 1600mA no, 8 Euro for a battery, yes.
