Hi everyone I could not find this information anywhere on the web or here on XDA so I've created a new post.
Once this information is received it will help a lot of people who are planning to buy a mugen battery but are confused were to buy it from as there are three mugen battery websites that appear on Google when searched.
I am in based in uk so there is not any shops here that sell the mugen battery where I could just pop in buy it. And I prefer to buy from original seller instead of third party so I know its original and genuine.
I need to to know which website is the genuine seller as one is based in Hongkong the other in Amsterdam and the other Aurora. I am not allowed to post links as I am a new user so please post the original website link Thanks in advance.

Lets see now ....
You posted a question at 6:21 pm on 15th August.
Your question was answered, accurately, at 10:10 pm the same day
Might it occur to you that anyone else reading this thread would see that your question had been answered, accurately, and not feel the need to waste any more time on it ??
Your thank you post was at 8:14 today - over a week later
Your complaint was at 8:28 today ...
Your total of 3 posts to date are summed up in the above few lines ...
Don't you think you ought to spend some time getting to know the forum before you start complaining about it not achieving some criterion you feel is appropriate ?
I've been coming here on and off since I got my Wizard, many years back, and I've been helped tremendously by people I will never know or have the chance to meet ... and all because they WANT TO ... If you want people to help you out, might I recommend a lite attitude realignment ... patience and respect wouldn't go amiss.
Well mate I've been using this forum for many years just never needed to register.
You need to fix up dude and take a chill pill. Your the one one the attitude disorder.
Are you really telling me you would go along with just one confirmation? I don't think any WISE person would just believe and trust just the ONE confirmation thats what I was doing being patient and wise mate.
What would the harm have been if people would just have confirmed to help out. But no we get people like you with attitude disorders taking there miserable lifes frustration out here.

no, you're the moron by your writing style. a good reply would be 'anyone else?' rather than your attack on other people's 'disgraceful' behaviour.

Nobody owes you anything here. Some of us here are not too sure, some of us might not be confident of giving an accurate reply, and thus you get no reply, or it takes time to get some. This particular forum does not get much traffic, so quit your whining.

Your writings errors don't really strengthen your point to say the least. You got a comment (for free) within several hours that gave you the link (which you could've found on google if you did any research yourself) to the OFFICIAL SITE. What do you want? 100 replies confirming that it's actually the official site?
I got exactly the same in a PM too ... Must need to make a point I guess
I did research on Google but the information could not be found.

i guess a WISE person would have been able to find that.
The 1600 mah battery on the Mugen site; that will work in the Desire without need for a new backing, right?

Hi Guys
So I bought my wife an Inspire and have been playing around with Wild Child's ROMs over in the Inspire Forum. I think he does fantastic work and so far these are some of the most stable and fastest ROMs I have seen on any Android device that I have used. Check the thread for reviews and feedback from other users.
I spoke with him about developing a ROM for the Tbolt, but obviously he is on ATT and has an Inspire. However, he said if he had one he would definitely get working on it.
I would like to start taking donations to buy him a Tbolt so he can develop a ROM for us to use.
I think we can buy a good quality used one in the $150 range, so it wouldn't take too much to get him started. If we can get enough to buy one ( I will throw in too), I will gladly find one locally in Utah and pay for the shipping to to him.
If there is enough interest on this and we get some posts, I will put up a paypal link for this.
Thanks and please post your thoughts so we can get working on this.
JimmyUT
I think you would be better off having the developer come and express interest in attaining a donated thunderbolt. I am not sure how many people would just send money to you in good faith since Christmas is right around the corner, couldn't hurt to have some extra shopping money. But good luck.

So if I was trying to scam you, why do you think I would put in a developers name who is a member and respected developer on this site? Seriously?
I discussed this with Wild Child and he asked me to do it this way. You can confer with him if you don't believe me.
You can also check out my business website.
utahpistol.com
I am certified by the state to teach concealed weapons classes and if there is even a blip on my record or a complaint i could loose my certification and my business. Do you really think that is worth $150 to me?? I. come on gentlemen. Not everything in this world is a scam, and you should have realized that when I put in a devs name that is here on the site and accessible.
But thank you for bringing negativity to my thread as I was just trying to do something for the greater good of the xda community.
Wild Child has a donations link setup. I'd say if you wanted to donate to him why not donate through his link? Also, can you point us to some of his work with the Inspire? I don't see much development for the Inspire.
I was asked to possibly develop for you guys on the tbolt....if you look here,I took over the ROM from someone else...all the proof of my work is [email protected] etc....this wasnt a scam, and for those who gave negative replies...not very nice....jimmyut was only trying to give you guys a stable usable rom for this device....but since you guys/girls want to bash the man for something legit....thats ok ill pass.... Mods can you please delete this thread....Thank you for the confidence and compliments of my work jimmy....ill see you in the inspire forums...
WC
No worries. Sorry it didn't work out because of the negative attitudes of some of the members on here. You would have been a great asset to the Tbolt team.
Maybe I will just buy one myself and send it to you so I can have my own custom one of a kind ROM...
Thanks again for the willingness to help out. I wish this whole community was more like you.

Like my Mom taught me, "sometimes it's better to to say nothing at all".
I think HTC are beginning to get worried about the negative press over the One series.
Had a call from HTC customer service today in response to a survey I filled in recently.
Basically I slated them and their response to my support call.
I asked them a specific question about their new Bluetooth audio dongle and they gave me some crap generic response about how not all phones have the same Bluetooth functionality (my request had nothing to do with phones merely the specification of the dongle).
Anyway I didn't pick up because the number was 'unknown' but they left a very detailed message and seemed very keen to get a resolution (apparently ;-)).
What do you reckon? Call back and hurl abuse???

What do you guys do for a living? No company intentionally does things that aren't in the best interest of their customers. Big multi-billion dollar (pound, euro) companies can't turn on a dime. At least in the U.S., my experience with HTC so far has been light years better than Samsung. The fact that HTC sent you a survey (which they pay for) means they do care about what their customers think. And I guarantee you whatever their response is it in no way has anything to do with the *****ing taking place on XDA.

Are you 12? First you complain that your issues weren’t properly addressed. Then, it appears HTC's trying to further assist you. And the first thing that came to your mind is "hurl abuse?"
You guys really need to get lives as making a piece of electronic kit the focal point of your existence is just plain scary.

i smell trolls
threadstarter si trying to get the attention of HTC for what? the fact that they made the effort to call you back with regards to your survey means that they have good customer service. and you wanted to "hurl abuse?" imo HTC doesnt need customers like you.
If you got time, I'd call back and actually tell them what you didn't like and how they should've handled it.
The fact is that companies like HTC pay these survey companies to study these things, collect customer feedback so that later on HTC can process it and work on improving their image/products.
How efficient that is - that's another debate. But I really think you need to use this opportunity to make your voice heard.
At the very least, you'll feel vented =)

This is my preview post of Mugen Power batteries for the Touch pro and the Desire S
Mugen Power preview
http://mygadgets101.blogspot.com/2012/07/mugen-power-pre-review.html?m=1
I now have the Touch Pro battery and I'm testing it very thoroughly. I will update the blog soon.
The blog page has been updated
In the past I thought about to buy this battery but I read in some boards some ppl have problems with unloads and so on.... Now I bought a 2nd battery for 11 € @Amazon If I stay outside I just switch.
no trouble here
I'm having a great user experience with it on the touch pro. I still want to get one for the desire s and continue the blog. I have heard of these problems before, I'm not having a problem but I'm not using one on my droid yet. I will update asap.
my touch pro will now stand by for 4 days with it online on BB connect 24 hours a day. I can use the device all day long now. Are you having a bad time with uploading?
Would appreciate an update on the Desire S battery asap! I am really curious as to whether it's worth it or not.

Yeah, why else post in Desire S forum?
Thread to close
Hi all I'm sorry for the long break in the update process, this is due to having no money with which to make a perchance of the Desire S battery, you see when I first wanted to buy a Mugen battery I contacted the company and asked them reasonable questions about the batteries and what to expect and so forth, in the course of the conversation I asked if there were any way to get a better discount than 7% the rep asked me if I blog, I said yes I do and can. He then asked if I could do a review of the battery I wanted to buy. I said sure and he asked for links to the places I intended to post so I gave him many links and I asked him what I should do next, he said post a review and then send me links back to the review, so I said but I haven't used the unit yet how shall I review it, all he would answer was post links to your review. Well I couldn't post a lie I hadn't tried the unit; so I posted a preview and a review of a product I had used though not the one I wanted it was just for a personal test and to get the use of my TP back. So I contacted the rep again and said check out my post and see if you can give me the unit or a better discount like you promised; after he looked up my links he scolded me for posting at all and then broke communication with me. So I was going to continue the blog when I could afford to buy the battery, but I have been strapped for cash till even this posting now. I'm deeply sorry and I have learned not to trust reps online so easily and I will be closing the thread and blog as I'm no longer a supporter of Mugen due to this treatment.
I got mygen power battery about month ago and Im quite satisfied with same...I have about 20% better result than with stock one (18-20h of usage instead 13-15h on 3g); Im using JellyFireBean v2 rom (best ever for desire s)!!
Mugen also here, no probles at all. Recommended.
Hi There,
I'd like to share my experience buying an iMito QX1 from Geekbuying.com - not for the sake of flaming, but really to help fellow community members avoid lost money and unnecessary heartache.
I purchased the item in June - and have yet to see a refund for a defective product.
It took forever to arrive - and upon arrival was basically DOA. It worked very briefly, in which time I couldn't find sufficient information online to try and flash the new firmware to get it to work properly (the Geekbuying forum information is very minimal, to say the least, and the response rate is very slow), and upon pulling out to try and refresh and reconnect, it stopped working entirely. I connected it to numerous tvs and devices, to no avail - signal has been lost.
This is a known issue that many people have posted about - and Geekbuying.com have completely ignored. See these threads:
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?2539-imito-mx1-no-signal-to-tv
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?4053-Imito-MX2-black-screen
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?3447-Imito-MX1-doesn-t-work-gt-Black-Screen-No-signal
After reaching out to Geekbuying and explaining everything - and everything we tried technically - they initially were willing (supposedly) to provide a refund or alternate device (we asked for a refund), and asked us to fill out forms that they never provided us with, and since then have been stalling, evading, and unhelpful.
Below is the chat I had with their operator today, where they once again have evaded and chosen to be unhelpful:

Good luck.
Thank you for posting this. I hope your post will help others to be aware too. But I have to tell you for every post you find like this and believe me there are many. You will also find many post on other forums that will defend this company and have complete lack of empathy.If you read those threads you will find as I have. They are generally from people who have a certain (ahem, cough) relationship with them. It sickens me to say the least. BTW, its not just the device you purchased either. I try to let people know that a lot of these divides can all so be purchased through Amazon. I am not promoting Amazon. I am just saying if something does go wrong. You have a much better chance of a fair outcome. Sorry to here of your episode. You were more than fair with them. I will not be surprised if there is a reply in their defense. Then again, maybe not here. But, try a certain f****tab forum and you will see what I mean. Good luck.

Thanks for the support - I'm sure you're right - I just hope that the sincerity comes through and that if someone who is looking to purchase an item from them and sees this post at some point, may possibly reconsider.
I never do things like this and if it were a small amount I'd likely just forget about it, but it's a $90 product.

Amazing such issue's were had.
I also bought my QX1 from Geekbuying however I ordered via Amazon (bundle pack with external antenna & Cat 5 USB adaptor)..
My order was received 4 days later (via USPS).
The unit works great & still no issue's on my end with my unit.
Also bought an airmouse from them (via Amazon again) & received that the day before last (2 days after order)..
Long of the short of all of this is I wouldn't put such hate towards one posting that's seen..
As I've had no issue's on my end once so ever..
Just stating my $0.03....
Shame about the issue's though as the QX1 really is I nice little device (however deva support is still very limited)..
My experience with imito qx1 is also positive. Bought it on geekbuying.com and was aware that shipping last LONG. Got it and it works like a charm. Had same issues in the beginning but flashed it with Finless 1.5 ROM form freaktab.com and it works great. That was a good decision.
I was able to RMA my CX-919 to geekbuying for just return shipping $8.
They asked for a youtube video of it not working!
Took two months but the new device works great.
hi folks
am after a little help please. i am looking to buy the 64gb version of this phone if i can get an invite. but that is NOT what this thread is about. Im a little confused over the pricing structure and was hoping some folks could explain it to me and maybe say what they did?
Ok so i looked here http://oneplus.net/one and the price shows as $349 which converts to about £215. great that looks like an awesome price for this spec. Im sold and now i want one.
However, this morning whilst doing my usual reading and searching i happened upon this http://oneplus.net/uk/one which shows the price as £269?!?! Ok so now i am confused. there appears no difference between the phones linked and they are both apparently from the same official source. SO why the huge price difference??? Could i not just buy from the first link and save 20% or would they not ship the phone to england if i buy from that page, or worst still would i get hit with huge custom charges? If it just means the shipping takes longer than the price would justify the wait.
Sorry for the questions but im really on the edge about buying this phone and for £215 im sold but at £269 well thats a different sale i need to make to the missus lol.
Thanks for looking and for any help advice you can offer,

Its because of tax reasons, haven't you noticed that tech is expensive in the UK?
The US is generally the cheapest place to get tech.
So do you think I'd be able to buy it from the first link and pay the same price as they do in the u.s.? Tyia

Price in UK is £269. Including VAT. If you buy in USD, I think you'd have to have it delivered to the US. £269 is still a fantastic price though...

Cant argue with you that its a fantastic price. but id managed to convince the other half when it was £215 but boy does she love to disagree with me :crying:
SO i presume then if i order it through the usd link they either wont send it or will simply add the tax on at customs or something?
Cheers for the replies folks.

Divide any price you see up there by 6.13 to see the final price.
So is there no one here from the uk that has brought this phone?

Of course there is they just have not seen your thread. Honestly the price is still great regardless and the trickery you are trying to achieve is not worth it. Go ahead and pull the trigger

helpful? How could it be?
My question was why are there two different prices listed for this phone one in gbp and one in dollars. And can i or anyone in the uk purchase the phone and pay in dollars? If its possible would anyone here know if we would have to pay customs duty?
With that restated you have attempted to derail my thread by making it about using the search function.
The first is a link to a comment from opo saying this phone can be purchased in the uk.
Your second link is an off topic thread for folks in the uk. Both not even from xda
The third link is about using the phone on threes network.
The fourth link is about someone asking where the phone can be purchased and appears to end with folks talking about selling/buying on gumtree.
The fifth is about someone asking about how long their order may be in the delivery process.
Would you care to elaborate how that in anyway shape or form answers my question? Or can you answer my question? Or would your searching powers be able to show me the link to that answer?
If not i dont really get what you hoped to achieve with your two posts. And would humbly ask you to please reply no further.
I have just had to waste 5 minutes of my life to respond to your comments which im never gonna get back. If you dont like/agree or have any useful info to provide to a topic please just ignore it!
Apologies to anyone else that has had to read these comments they are pointless and achieve nothing. They will also undoutedly prevent me from getting an answer to my original question.

They are UK related links with individuals from your area that would be better equipped to ask your question.. This is why I posted it but derailing was not my intention. I felt my info was helpful if you did not then OK....

then fair play and i thank you for your help.
ok guys just in case anyone else comes across this issue i think i know the coup now.
I went online to order the phone via an invite i was kindly given by a member here. It automatically took me to the price in us dollars so i went through the order process and when i tried to pay via paypal. It said i was in the wrong store and it forced me to the uk store and to then pay in gbp. So it did indeed ultimately cost me the extra 20%. I know i could have got it sent to a pal of mine in america but i didn't.
Hope this clarifies the situation for anyone else wondering.
It also applies for €.
Its pretty clear the oneplus/UK site 269 pretty simple? In us its 349 something like that. There's a difference in price because of different vat etc.
I bought a one plus one I'm in UK I managed to understand....
