Would me popping in the HD2 Official Extended Battery brick the AT&T HTC Inspire 4G?
Gonna assume the two battery sizes are the same. Haven't received my Inspire 4G yet. Still in the mail.
I believe when some contacted HTC, they stated that the Inspire/Desire HD battery is not compatible with any other current HTC device.
This is in the wrong section... This should be in accessories...
If you could some how get the battery to fit, I guess it would temporarily brick it seeing as the Inspire's battery has contacts on the side whereas the HD2 battery does not.
Remember, the Inspire has an aluminium unibody design and no genuine extended battery will work with it.

Not likely. If the HD2 extended battery is thicker than the Inspire battery, it wouldn't fit the slot of the Inspire. The battery of the Inspire slides into the body of the Inspire much like an SD card slides in. And the shape of the slot is the size of the OEM battery and no larger.
i have and hd2 (european version) that is no longer working (screen doesnt respoond to touch) and was wondering if anyone has trying putting the original htc hd2 batterry ( not extended battert) in their inspire 4g. due to the fact that i dont what to break my phone, i have not turned it on, but it does fit, really snugly. where the original htc inspire battery just slides out with no effort, the hd2 battery needs to be pulled out to be removed

My wife has a My Touch 4G Slide, and I have a Sensation. I was taking a look at our batteries today, and both our our OEM batteries have the exact same model number, and look and feel exactly the same...with one exception that I could find: the metal contacts on the bottom of the battery are on the opposite side of each battery, relative to the "HTC" logo on the "front" of the battery. If you flip one battery over, so the "small print" is facing up, and the align it with the other battery, I have a hard time telling the difference.
Before I place one of these batteries in the opposite phone and cause the polar ice caps to melt down, can anybody confirm that I can swap these batteries between the phones with no issues?
I'll keep scouring the XDA forums and the rest of the interweb thingies, but I haven't found an answer yet.
Thanks.
I did this going from my old incredible to a g2. I just flipped the battery around, cut the corners down and plugged it in. Worked just fine.

I'm scared that my hair will fall out, or tsunamis will hit several major cities around the world! Well, maybe not THAT scared.
Make sure the polarities are going the right way.
HTC Sensation, HTC Evo 3D, and HTC MyTouch 4G Slide stock batteries are all interchangeable. The similar-sized extended batteries (the ones that don't require a new back cover) also work too, to my knowledge.
Well the Evo 3D and Sensation batteries are swapable so guess that would me the same for the Sensation and myTouch. I have a sensation and my wife has the MT4G... why would you want to swap?
Edit--- nevermind just realized you said MT4G Slide...
I've switched the 2 batterys with no problems

i found a 24oo mhA battery:

don't forget to use the coupon codes mentioned on the frontpage (i forgot).
I ordered and hope it will be good .
really love the mugen 1 in my g2, it is hard because of that to switch now
I bought the Platinum extended battery for the Nexus s 4g today thinking it would fit my nexus s NON 4g. Needless to say that the cut out on the battery cover does not line up with the power button.. Can anyone confirm that the 4g's power button is a little higher than the rest or did i just get a faulty peice? And also the battery erased alot of my widgets for some reason and reset my keyboard to OEM... kinda confused. Thanks!
I have a proporta mizu case, which is made for the nexus s, but I have the 4g version, and I can confirm that the power button is indeed placed slightly higher in the 4g version vs the regular version.
Thank you very much for the quick response! That was all I really needed to know!

Yes, im using like that right now..
should fit - the phones are almost identical. I think all the antenna connections from the back of the phone housing are in the same place too.
Missing 4G antenna

Hi,
Both covers should fit, but I truly think that they are missing the 4G antenna, so you probably will only get Edge (maybe 3G?) for your mobile network if you have T-Mobile Sensation 4G. Look at the attached pic and you will see that both covers are missing antenna "A" from the pic.
You can also look at this post (I took the pic from there): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155685
They are discussing the location of the antennas, but I am almost 100% sure that I am right about this, as I read on Engadget at some point, but I couldn't find the article.

You're wrong.
That last antenna doesn't make much of a difference in wifi, 3g, bluetooth, or gps.
Even without that last antenna everything works fine.
It isn't for 4G because technically tmobile's 4G is just an enhanced version of their 3G network. (HSPA 7.2 is regular 3g. HSPA+ 14.4 is "4G")
I agree 100%, I read somewhere that the 4th antenna is not affected when we change cover. Currently i am using the HTC sensation xe cover and everything is working fine. Although i can't say about the 4G as its not available yet in Malaysia. Cheers~
ok my volume side plastic pieces to turn volume up and down on the side broke off, so i need a new back cover for my tmobile htc sensation 4g (my sensation is not the XE) but i like the look of the white XE back cover. In this thread, you all are saying i can buy a white sensation xe beats audio back cover and put it on my tmobile htc senstaion 4g (non xe) and it will still work and function? tryin to figure this out soon 100% cause i don't wanna waste the money and i need to get another back cover cause i like being able to adjust my volume on the outside instead of going into settings. thanks

PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A PRE ORDER, DUE IN ON THE 4TH MARCH 2013 FROM HTC
Batter Usage with the 2100mah
Batter Usage with the 2100mAh after 2 hours
The Gap which is caused by 2100mAh Battery
By the way, he removed the u-shaped rubber which is pasted on the back case .
Thanx to kr1st1an for the pics
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0jGY2N2h1U Seems like the connector is the same...maybe it will work...
But wouldn't the size be a matter, since it is a big battery!

There's really only way to find out.
A lot of times you can get a exteneded battery that is a little bigger than stock that is the same size. The One X battery might fit, it's only 150mAh bigger.
I would guess it doesn't fit/work.
Why would HTC bother using 2 different batteries if they could use 1. Having to source more different parts is never a Good Thing in manufacturing.

Why? The same reason they left out NFC in the One S, Also the One X has a bigger screen so it needs a little more juice to get the same battery life.
I know this thread is a few days old now, but thought I might have a little insight. Back when the Evo and Incredible came out (very similar relationship to One X / One S) the Evo standard battery WAS the Incredible extended battery. Same part number and everything, and they were exactly the same physical size! So I'm not promising the One X battery will work, but there's definitely a good shot.
The current 1650mAh battery looks pretty big, so that 1800mAh may actually fit. The work needed to open the case seems to much to replace a battery.

is it 1650MAH?
theres nobody who can tell if the HTC One X battery fits into the One S?
If that is the case, the battery of the One X+ should also fit and has 2100mAh!!

honestly, for just a 1800 mAh it's not even worth the disassemble, I'd do it for the one x+ battery though
i would say it's not possible. the connector for the One X is on the left side the One S is right. altough the battery seems a bit bigger (what I've seen in videos)
you are right about the connector

the battery in the pictures on the site (see OP) does not look like it has any notches or cutouts indicating direction of installation (it looks like a square more or less) and could probably be installed upside down, allowing for the fact that the connector of the X and S are on different sides, but you would have to twist the wires over so that the connection could be made, and I am not sure that they have that much give...
honestly, getting a portable charger isn't that bad.. they hold at least one charge and are pretty small in size.
even if ONE S has a bigger battery, it certainly wont hold more then 2000mAh, and probably cause the same as a 3000-4000mAh portable charger.
bought a 1800mah from eBay.took me 15mins to install it and its working no problem. Just have to flip the battery around so the side with the logo and writing is facing the inside. All the wires match up exactly.
Took this pics with my tablet,, sorry for the quality.

Scouring the internet like crazy, got a HTC Desire HD that I really want to use Qi charging for. I also have an SGS3, so i wanted to kill two birds with one
Any ideas? I'm really running out of ideas here. I was thinking maybe I could use some copper wire or something from a regular one.
I saw a back (entire back above the sim cover at the bottom), aka fits around the cam and flash, for htc thunderbolt for qi, but i'm guessing that wouldn't fit this would it?
