Official extended batterys?

I've seen a bunch of battery on eBay. But I'm worried since their mostly from China. Does anyone have experience with one of these or know of an official desire or inspire battery?

I haven't seen one yet. Those cheap batteries often are no where near the capacity they claim so steer clear for now

I bought one from eBay for $4.89. It claims to be 1600 mah. So far it hasn't given me a problem but the battery life seems to be about the same than the official one.

I have been looking for a longer lasting battery as well. My battery only lasts about 8hrs if I use it alot.

Anyone care to review batteries they've bought?

The DHD uses the same battery and I found a 1600 mah on ebay....

It's pricey, but I suppose I'd rather it be pricey than $3 bucks, lol. AND it's in the US. I may give it a look see. What do you guys think?

why pay so much for battery? i got charger at home, car, work. less then $15.

There are quite a few other 1600mAh Desire HD batteries on eBay, mostly in Hong Kong, one in Canada, for significantly less than the $103 price. That's just an insane amount of money to pay for a battery. Personally I'm happy to find one that performs as well as the stock battery and pair it with a plug-in charger so I can swap mid-day if needed. It would be killer to find a battery charger for the car too.

I agree, why in the world would anyone pay $105 for a battery!?!?
Does said battery make me breakfast in the AM?

Why not just plug the phone in while in the car? The adapters/cables are only a few bucks.

Well the reason people buy extended batteries are because they're away from some type of charger, or don't want to hassle with a charger all day. I am one who wants to get the maximum possible out of a device, without compromising on reprogramming things to conserve battery. I'd LOVE to see a 1600 mah battery that got good reviews, but thus far everyone says since they're made with cheap chinese cells, it's really a 1200 mah battery labeled 1600.

I do plug the phone in while in the car, but it would be nice to have a spare battery charging while on the go as well, sort of a charge it and forget it type of thing in case it's needed while out.

I'd say the same but the replacement procedure for getting the phone open is such a hassle, I'd prefer an extended length battery, lol

hey guys, i was wondering if a higher mah battery would work find in my inspire, i was thinking of getting a evo shift battery, which is 1500mah, would it work?!

This auction is back down to $4.89. A lot of the time, when a retailer is out of stock of something, they'll jack up the price of the auction, rather than having to pull/repost the auction. This way they don't have to pay the fee to have it removed/readded, but no one in their *right* mind would buy one. I've seen this a lot with Inspire accessories...no one can keep anything in stock.

I ordered this one from Amazon and it is from HTC.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004CWWWJ4
And if it is garbage I can use Amazon's A to Z return policy, so I am covered. I would rather try Amazon before I would use E-bay, with Amazon there is always a way to get your money back with e-bay there is not.

Andida 1800MhA Ace Battery

Recieved this dirt cheap (so called High Capacity1800mAh) chinese battery today, if anyone is interested I post my results and findings, after using it for a couple of days. Got it from www.obostore.com

after using and comparing to stock battery my conclusion is I get the same hours from this battery (which I expected) still it's a cheap replacement if you need one I posted a review on the website of www.obostore.com and they refuse to publish it, that says enough I think, right ? chinese fake

Thats what I thought too, as it's the same size. still wanted to give it a testdrive, It's only the price of a Mc Donalds happymeal and free shipping so I ordered one for fun. Will post my findings after is properly calibrated.

Its not too great.....its not too bad. for what you paid....you get a battery than the stock on. Have been using it for a month now.

I'd love to hear your experience with it. Let us know! If it's any good, I'll be buying it...

I think the real capacity will be about 1100Mah zo 130 less then the original battery, as i'm in China right now I went one day on path to find me a spare battery for mine DHD and many just asked to high prices and I hadnt any faith that those higher Mah's would be really true.
So after looking at so many small shops in Guangzhou I came at this shop where the girl first needed look, being suprised that they where not selling battery's with false Mah's on, in fact it was a 1100Mah and I bought it just for 30rmb, all other sellers asked me about 40 a 50, one even dared ask more then 80.
The brand is Speedy, its a brand from Hongkong speedycom.hk/
It's to bad such brands wouldnt survive on eBay because most people will just go for the higher number even though the higher number is just a lie.

im interesting too

Money aside, is there any proven/better batteries for the desire hd?

No the original htc battery is IMO the best battery on the market.

Guys, honestly I can't understand why you all want to try something that has been tried and proved several times to be fake.
Those guys make money on their lies and you help them expand and design their next lie which we will have to buy again before we realise the truth.
My opinion is that all people who bought similar batteries should return them and request refund because what they bought was not what was described. You bought a 1800/1500 or whatever mAh battery which was really 1240. If eBay or Paypal is involved, you can claim your money very easily.

buying batteries from these mass production factories from china is playing with your life dude....either they will short circuit your mobile board, else it will just blow up under slight increase of temperature.... please be caution and use only when your main original battery dies off and use this as backup and not for long hours usage....

also need a better battery

Funny enough, the only reported cases where batteries exploded was for major brand names...

Ah, good thing I have 2 oems then...but truth be told, I never have to use the second one...but I do like have the backup
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Is there anyway to check the actual power of the battery? I bought a 1600mah off ebay and it does seem to last a couple of hours longer than the original, but that might be cos i started using a custom rom after i bought it lol

This is reason why we better should use External battery packs...
Of course best of them cost much... but still your DHD maybe will live longer.
Thanks for info about Andida 1800MhA almost bought it. I will wait some time maybe there will be better one in future....

When I had a HTC Hero I had one such 1800mha peace of junk it lasted couple of hours and one day just stopped working I will never make the same mistake again.
These "batteries" are cheep for a reason.....

Stock battery vs mugen

Well mugen is 1800mah and i saw many good reviews on the threads. It looks like it gives 1-2 hrs of extra time compare to stock. The only downside is its price... 40 dollars for a battery..
Which one should i get? I can get the stock htc g2 battery from tmobile for 7.99 but downside of it is i have to carry around.
Whats your guys opinion which one would you get?

7.99? where? how?

Tmobile. Just call tmobile and you are having problem with battery life and you went through techinal support and did hard reset and everything.
So you dont have to go through that stupid step.
Then they will send you the replacement but you have to pay for shipping
Sent from my HTC Vision using Tapatalk

the 1800 mah battery would net your more like an additional 5 hours. on a normal day on stock battery i go through about 65% of my battery (unplug at 7:30am and recharge at around midnight)
as long as it fits, it's fine.
now the 1500 one will net you an hour or 2 extra without the extra bulge.

Would you recommend chichitecs red battery. Or mugen
Chichitec or mugen? I'm going to get a case and just take out the battery metal cover so bulging is not that big of a problem
Sent from my HTC Vision using Tapatalk

I have personally not used either (since I'm kinda happy with the stock battery) but I would recommend the Mugen. It's a well known brand, it's got lots of good back up here on xda developers (based on spec sheets and testing) and that 40bucks isn't that bad if you consider that you'll get a good amount of battery life on you.

I've posted this set of batterys in a few other threads, I don't know if it is really 1800mah BUT it is for sure better then the stock battery and you don't have to modify it at all. Been using it for a couple months now and can make it through the day no problem. Some people don't like the cheap/generic ebay batterys, but Im happy with its performance. I think a few others on here have been using it too, don't know what their results are yet.

Pulled the trigger and ordered the chichitec batteries lastnight.

If you don't have a problem with a bulky back and want extreme battery life, you should check out the 3500 mAH batteries on eBay. I got myself 3 of them and I only need one due to the long battery life, by the time I come home on the second day, I can just plug it in and charge it fully for the next 2 days.

Isn't the metal battery cover integrated into the antenna? Check the nubs on the lock side of the case and the plates they touch on the cover.

i personally wouldn't think so
if it is attached to the antenna, when ever you touch the back of your phone it would affect the antenna so no~

Dock works well. It's easy to place phone on and take it off of the dock. There is also a power cord and separate USB connection so you can have the dock connected to a cpu and wall outlet at the same time. The backup batteries perform just as well as the OEM battery.

Epic 4G (SPRINT)
I am very happy with the battery life. Getting about 7hrs plus on light surfing, with just data 3g on constant, and bluetooth use only on when needed. Sorry I dont have one of those phone screen for proof but rest assured it the best slim fit battery out there that I am aware. After purchasing the mAh 1800 generic, the mAh 1950 QCell and finally Samsung 2000 mAh which is the best quality being that its not generic or fake just pure brand, and I noticed the difference in performance. Using right now Clean GB 1.1.2 on BML and I mainly use phone for talk with opening 1 or 2 pages of web and some on & off bluettoth, no 4g, no wifi, vibrate or silence, screen off in 2min, no live wallpapers = solid 7hrs for me. Results may vary depending on your apps but I stop using memory apps just a fresh install of CleanGB.
Fit on Epic 4g Sprint sph-d700 phone is tight but good. Plus I use Seidio ACTIVE Case for Use with Samsung Epic 4G - Black so it snugs real nice the back cover with battery.

Anyway www.htcexpress.com delivered quick USPS and even found a coupon to get 10% off so I purchased 2 orders for $62.00 for 4 batteries and 2 charger, one for my girl. I'm good to go when traveling I have my Samsung 2000 mAh in phone and one spare in jean pocket enough to cover me for when I charge at home.
P.S. i used this code OFF10 in the shopping cart under Vouchers and guess what its cheaper by 10% until supplies last or offer ends.

Hey OP, I've never heard of these cells before. Would you be interested in sending me one for testing over in my Battery Reviews Thread. I'd be interested to see how they hold up. They are very sneaky making it look so OEM styled

Somehow I doubt that.. I got some "1800mah" 3rd party batteries about a year ago and while they worked great at first, they slowly deteriorated and now they won't even last an hour, while my stock 1500mah still lasts at least 15h with light use and is about 1.5 years old.

Stock Battery average at best...
Yeah on stock I would get like 4-5hrs at best now I can last solid 7hrs so to answer your questions the more mAh the more power you can store in it. The trick I have found is not to let go to 0 more like 10 or 20 % before a full charge.
As for the extra charger its neat to take it on the go but I use my cradle charger for home recharging.
I think the 1800mAh Samsung battery is overrated just like the expensive Seido Extended Battery. The 1500mAh and this one both are made in china except this one might be third party because it does have www.chichitec.com printed in the back cover but in the end its just a battery with 200mAh more than Samsung. I might just have to buy this OEM Samsung 1800mAh battery that everyone praises just to see the difference.
Anyway this is just for those who want to have a little bit extra without the bulge of a extended battery cover. I am happy with it and just wanted to share and try it out has suggested in my other thread by a fellow member.

Test and see what kind of screen on time these are capable of.

If you've only used that battery for a few cycles, I'd love to see what it actually weighs in at over in my Phone Battery Review Thread

What programs to test with?
I will do it but don't no what apps should I use like screen shot apps or battery measuring apps. Can you suggest any free or paid apps on goggle play I should focus on so that I can post some screen for you m8's? Thanks for your input.

The whole idea of the 1800mAh OEM battery is that it fits with the original back cover not making it to bulky, the battery is actually capable of lasting all day with medium-usage. At least compared to my year old 1500mAh one

Battery Monitor Widget is a good one. You need the widget on your home screen for it to monitor.

The built in battery stats should give more than enough info. Post screen on time, overall stats, and the graph.

Updated screenshots as requested. How do I show off screenshots blown up inside the post instead of small like attachments?
Anyway can go a good 9hr+ even better than previous stated. One note when charging on USB I get 100%, after unplug I only see 94% (1880 mAh) don't know if this is because I charge in phone or I should use their wall charger to get the full 100% from point of turning on phone.
Now I hear theres a 2300mAh but reviews sound skeptic. Will have to do some more research, but I think I have bridged the gap with extended and slim using this battery.

You've asked at least three times. Maybe the guy just doesn't want to.

My offer stands none the less
