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:

You should check the seller that its cover is compatible with your HTC Diamond ( mine is O2 Ignito )

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
Hi everyone,
I found this battery, capacity is 1500 mAh and page says "Fits in existing space so no replacement door is needed", is there anyone using this battery. Or any else suggestion?
Battery Link
That battery will only fit the following ;
'For use with HTC Touch Diamond (Sprint)/Touch Pro/Fuze'

The HTC Touch Diamond Sprint is more rounder than HTC Touch Diamond.
By the way....
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?

It is actually much larger than the standard 900 mah
Can anyone advised me what to do?

Just google for it:

I dont know yet how many mah the battery has. But i know it is the extended battery for this phone.
Dutch people:

Its packed with a back cover because the battery its fatter
I expect that the new one will be a 1340 mAh version! Same like the MDA Vario IV, but that's still not certain.
1340mAh
The HTC Touch Diamond official battery is at present the BA S270 with 900mAh and the BP E270 battery is of the HTC Touch Pro (aka. Raphael) and has 1340mAh.
Since the two devices have the same dimensions barring the thickness the BP E270 is also compatible with the Diamond, but it will require what's named a 'blister' battery cover - which is basically adds a little more depth to the phone.
Cannot wait myself for an extended battery as I use my Diamond like a power-hog at the moment.

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.
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?

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

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

Its a Seidio 1600 ma battery that fits in without new back cover... £28...

Seems good 'on paper'. But I never understood why a phone's manufacturer wouldn't supply a device with the highest capacity possible (with the same size) unless it had 'adverse' effects on something, no matter how small.

Keep cost down, like not providing a case or docking station.
Just wonder how much more would the +200 mah do. Seidio seems to be a known brand though - also if it is for Nexus - is it really the same battery?
It does look as though the battery for the Desire is the same as for the Nexus One. Both seem to quote part number BA S410 tor the standard battery.
Tested it - I tried the Seidio Nexus One in the Desire and it works perfectly.
So whats the battery life like then? Is a 14% increase going to be noticed?
What would be great is two batteries in parallel covered by a skin with no back plate!

Wow seems like the 3200 has amazing battery life but everyone is complaining about the back cover.
Im sure this would work fine in the desire - just need a skin which will cover it without the backplate on at all but with lens cover and we are all sorted!
you know what?? i need clarity on extended life battery so bear with me. Does this go ontop of normal battery hence doubling life. or is it just a bigger capacity replacement battery so longer battery.
Sorry i just needed a bit of clarity
it has the same width/height as standard battery (fits in slot) but double the thickness almost like to stacked on top of each other in parellel. That means the original backing plate wont fit on anymore so they supply a replacement.
Checkout the video from the nexus one forum

Quite possibly worse than the stock battery - get batteryboss to test it
The site says:
Best replacement for the original battery with comparable standby and talk time.
They are probably the same as the orginal batteries just rebadged as 1500maH. This has been the experience with similar battereis for the HD2. By the way, that seller does no have a good feedback score. I think I might wait for other sellers to appear.
Watch out, cuz it's from China
just like almost everything these days including most handsets
Has there been some announcements from proper companies who are working on a solid high capacity battery? or just rumours?
and so; which companies are most likely to sell those batteries, so I can keep an eye open

Hi all, does anyone know when seidio or mugen power will come with a extended battery for the DHD? i'm waiting to get my DHD until one of these come out with a battery i need at least a day of heavy use with my phone.
I know mugen power has a 1800mah battery for the legend (standard 1300mah) so they will have something for us soon maybe 1650mah for the DHD...
Maybe an EVO 4G battery will fit?

It won't. Think I saw a short clip when they compared EVO and DHD.
They specifficly tried the battery.
No the evo battery will not fit because evo has a removable back cover and the dhd has a unibody design this makes them different from each other. I don't think the dhd is the world version from evo, it's a phone released in europe with different design, different os version, newer chipset and no 4g, no kickstand etc so very different from eachother in my opinion..
is the HTC Desires battery the same one as the HD mini ? I thought i read somewhere that they are the same
am gonna wait for the mugen batteries to come out, thats if an extended battery is possible on the dhd case and then hopefully an otterbox case when they develope one.
I am about to purchase the DHD finally .
