Nokia Lumia 710 - Extended Battery 2430MAH BP-3L - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It is well known that the Lumia 710 doesn't have the best battery life. I found a "replacement" battery on e-bay that is larger in capacity. The standard BP-3L OEM one is rated at 1300mAH and the replacement battery on e-bay is rated at 2430mAH.
Anyone have luck with this battery? Not sure if anyone has purchased batteries from this manufacturer, e-cell, and if their products are any good?

I would like to to know too

The Nokia 710 uses the same battery as the Nokia 603 which is a a BP-3L not a BP-4L.

Who said anything about a BP-4L? The extended battery on ebay is listed as a BP-3L.
The listing states "GOLD 2430MAH BP-3L HIGH CAPACITY BUSINESS BATTERY FOR NOKIA 603 LUMIA 710" which means the 710 uses the same sized (physically) battery as the 603, which is what I'm guessing your implying.

Sorry about the confusion. The ad does say 710 and BP-3L. There was another thread where someone was asking about a BP-4L and I replied to the wrong thread.
However, I would be skeptical of a similar sized battery with such a high capacity.

No worries about the confusion I went ahead and just ordered this battery on ebay; if it is fake then I'll request a charge-back via Paypal Simple as that. Stay tuned.

I did find this recent feedback on the sellers site for another one of this high capacity batteries.
Utter rubbish. Not the capacity claimed. Member id fubbybob (private) Feb-14-12 13:00

Hi. I'm italian and I don't know how to speak a good english. I've bought that battery, the seller is reliable. The battery has arrived with nothing. I've tested it and the result was... 1300mAh. I left a negative feedback, and the seller has refunded me. But i still have the battery. Now i just ordered a 1,70€ bp-3l (1500mah)

I just came across the post that Mugen Battery is released for Nokia Lumia 710

Mugen batteries are good (at least they are honest about battery's real parameters) but extremely overpriced. And they never innovate something real new; all Mugen's batteries are built using "regular" technology, may be with better quality control.

I just bought this.. for great price...
http://www.obostore.com/index.php?m...761409d55&categories_id=&keyword=bty103+BP-3L
I will report back if it's not good.

Not sure about this battery but Mugen batteries have great feedbacks.

Any new feedback on this topic? ??

I bought an andida 1700mah battery. It drains as fast as the original 1300mah. One thing i found out is that after using the 1700mah extended battery it somehow mess up your "battery status" in the diagnostic tool. It shows the voltage and current but the battery full capacity has disappear from the list. Anything similar happen to you guys?

hello friends, I bought a few weeks ago the battery mungen and I must say that I threw 36 euros. there is no difference between the original and this one. and diagnostics tool to me is missing when updating to firmware version for free 12120. I found this one on internet what you think.
ebay.es/itm/2200mAh-BP-3L-bateria-Nokia-603-Lumia-710-303-Asha-Asha-3030-/280838748332?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_186&hash=item41634b38ac
I confirm that gives maximum mungen 1275mah after 6 full loads and two months of use

Hi guys, I see that there are some of you, that bought batteries with more charge than the original (1300mAh), I was thinking if it really last longer than the original, can you please post your feedbacks about the new batteries?
Thanks

Its fake.
a 2000 mah battery is not that size...

Ofcourse these batteries are fake. Even if they do exist, just think why doesn't Nokia sells it in their stores ? i wouldn't go for a product which is not official. I am happy with the battery life my phone has.

From my expereince, i own a HD7
The HD7 battery dimensions can only go up to 1300 mah
Seido, anker and mugen are selling them . they are 80 mah + than the original battery
ANy other capacity more than that means extended battery door and significantly thicker battery.
Dont get fooled into buying these gold batteries that advertise same size but atrociously high capacity . these are fakes obviously. if u can have 2000 mah battery in that size, then why havent HTC themselves have not done it? or samsung or even Apple

I have used the yoo bao 2200 mah battery and the anker 1300 mah battery . Both for HD7 phone
The yoo bao battery lasts significantly longer, about 100 % more but its thicker ( 2x the size of original HTC battery) and needs the supplied battery cover
http://www.obostore.com/2200mah-yoobao-extended-battery-for-htc-hd7-p-705.html
the anker 1300 mah battery also lasts slightly longer giving 15-20 % more. But it is the same size as the original battery .
http://www.amazon.com/Anker-1300mAh-Li-ion-Battery-Schubert/sim/B005Q6VZFC/2
So get either of these and u should be fine.
I am now on the yoo bao battery and it does last me 2 full days with heavy usage

3500mah battery now available

Hey guys,..well Ive got the Cameron Sino 3000mah battery,thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789679
But just found out there also now a 3500mah battery available..so I couldnt help myself and gave it a go.Just bought yesterday so will take a week or so to arrive.
This one as with the other high capacity batteries also comes with a custom back cover..but instead of the all fat ones like the Cameron Sino one the top bit where the speaker and camera are is still slimmer..only the bulge where the battery is is fatter...personally I think that doesnt look as good as all fat cover (not as natural..looks more like an add on) but I guess with this way there's no black edges on the corner of photo's like some people are reporting with the all fat ones.
Anyway..there's a few sellers on ebay selling them but this is the cheapest I found:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/3500M-EXTEND...092212?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a0b1d3df4
Ha ha...I see its now USD $13 posted..yesterday when I clicked by now it was only USD $10.99
For me about AUD $11.48..(since current exchange rate is great now the time for us Aussies to buy from the U.S )
I bought it on Ebay for 11 Euro.
Looks good for long trips

Damn,he's now dropped the price again.This time down to USD $10.15! Thats even cheaper than what I paid..come on guys...gotta try it for that price..
I have already got the Cameron Sino 3000mah battery, but at 6.61GBP i thought i might as well order this one. Might well be a load of crap and might not even arrive, but its worth a go
Exactly.
I got the 3000mah Cameron Sino one too but had to try this one for that price.
Plus,dont forget,the back cover is a little different. Only the bottom section is fat,the top,where the camera and speaker are remains thinner so anyone who had complaints of the Cameron Sino all fat back cover making black edges around photos and the speaker a little muffled shouldnt complain here.
(Despite looking a little worse though I think)
Does anyone know how long this battery can hold a charge for?
would it be about 2.2xs longer?
Does anyone know a case that fits this? Preferably one that stays permanently on like those silicon ones?
What i don't get is that all of the extended batteries are so BIG..
Why not make a battery that is about 2 milimeter thicker and a case that only is bigger above the battery compartment..
In other words if you extend the 2/3 mm high hump on the regular cover about 1.5 inch on the SGS, you would have more room to put in a little bigger (2200mah) battery and you would still have a nice looking phone..
I would also like to know if theres any cases available for this size format. And its so weird how the capacity is ~2x more, but the size is 4x more lol.
My god, grrrr more batteries to buy! I'm starting to have way too many batteries. But its sooo cheap!!

Hmm.. A li-ion Polymore batter could be moulded to almost any shape and hold just a tad lower amps.. But they tend to be hell expensive compared to brick size li-ions that we rock. Iphones use li-ion polymore batts. But yeh, What i'm saying is taht we COULD get a decent size and shape but it would prob cost 2-3x more. I would love a batt thats say 2mm thick and cover whole back of the device which would maybe give it about 2500mah or more.

Gee,I see the prices have increased.When I bought mine you could get them for under USD$11 posted. As I did.
I have 3500mAh baterry now. It can joice my phone for a week, but it is kinda heavy and ugly, so I am using it only if I have to leave town for a weekend. It can survive even hard usage, playing games, and such. Took it from eBay.
I got mine delivered today. Charging as we speak. I ran across a site that exposes fake batteries and worry if this 3500mah battery is really just a big 2000mah battery now. Heres the site. What I noticed is that these ultra expensive Mugen batteries are so lowly rated. It seems that OEM batteries are best but they don't have a 3000mah battery! Hmmmmmmm

Depends on which battery you bought; I'm guessing it was an aftermarket one - there are lots of 'em flying around only some of them are better than the stock one.
Don't just believe the mah they state on the battery.
i'd check this thread, a lot of good stuff written on buying high mAH batteries of places like ebay.
Thank you for this post
There are some people who have had unpleasant surprises when changing battery
I was wondering about batteries made ​​in China.
I will focus on a battery where there will be a good return, like your 1800 mah stock ;-)

I have a chinese battery (otb original) and, when it's some hours power the phone with that battery, is like if I'm making long press on home key, and constantly jump the window with last open applications. As if it were a charged capacitor...
Many of the batteries you can find on ebay etc are fake. The mAH is just a sticker and easily printed
A fairly good/simple way to test is to weigh the batteries. If the new battery is lighter, it almost definitely is fake.
Another way is to peel off the sticker. Usually the manufacturer will print the actual capacity on the aluminium thing under the sticker (I peeled off the sticker of a 2.99 battery that was '1500' mAH - said it was 1000 underneath).
Is this too good to be real? I think they have less capacity. Anyone bought 1800mAh batteries from ebay that really are 1.8Ah? It would be nice if the saler ship worldwide.
I am looking to buy an extra battery, the current one holds about 8-12h of (heavy?) usage, Wi-Fi always ON, 3G/2G depending on the signal, most of the time full brightness, 20min-2h games or movies, 20min browsing the web and a few calls, at most 20min and frequently looking at the clock.

I just changed roms to one of the MIUI ones and my battery life has gone through the roof. What had been a 16hour charge (at most) on Darky's4.2 is now 28-30hour easily. Definitely something to look at, even ignoring the improved feature sets.

but automy is perfect with it !
From what i've read mugen are very credible for extended batteries, as are momax. Momax make a 1800mAH (to my best memory) which is the same size as the normal, or the 2700mAH battery which is a little thicker, but apparently gives a very good battery life

i had one of these. not reliable.
the only reliable extended battery is the mugen one
Also the 1900mah Anker is working great as many users have written to other similar topic.

I bought a battery for desire hd from ebay for $5 with 1600mAh. Testing it with a professional battery charger I discovered that his power storage capacity was only 800 mAh (worse than the original after 1.5 years of use).
Also when I tried to use phone camera with the flash the phone suddenly reboots, which is not the case with the original battery.

I have seen the Anker 1600 mAh batteries on Amazon UK for £10 for 2 (incl a charger) which has pretty good reviews.
In my experience, for cheaper batteries you cant always trust a mAh rating for many cheaper batteries.
The Mugen and Anker ones consistently get good reviews.
I bought the Anker battery 1600 mAH from Amazon but I did not get Anker and got a different one instead. The battery I got was 1500 mAh. So be careful ordering from Amazon if at all you are looking for Anker replacement batteries. The good thing though is that I got the money refunded and the battery which I got isn't that bad either. I am for sure getting more usage time with the new battery.

Well... the thing about battery capacity is pretty mathematical. For a given volume of battery, you can only fit so much capacity inside.
That's why ebay batteries touting unusual figures are fake. If you're lucky they will have the stock capacity.
The only exception to this is Mugen, as far as I'm aware. They have squeezed some extra capacity (not much, takes it up to 1500mAh).
Batteries are also cheap if the manufacturer takes shortcuts on the charging circuitry. Another good reason to avoid the $5 1800mAh wonders.
So, I would only recommend 2 batteries: HTC's, and Mugen's.
End of thread?

i dont know, whether it will be a good one or not, but use mugan one. that is trusted.

New battery, which one?

First off all, sorry for opening another topic about a battery but I've read a lot and still don't know which one I've to buy. Currently I'm using the stock battery in my Sensation XE (1730mah). But I've to charge it too many so I want a better one but don't want a custom cover so my phone is thicker.
I've searched on eBay and found a 2680mah battery! But Japan stuff.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/251164807167 which I'm not really trusting. So I've send a message to the seller:
- Does it really fit in the default case?
- Is the battery certified or something? CE, RoHs? Legal in Europe?

And the response:
Dear customer, our batteries have passed all the safety tests,
are CE compliant, making them safe for phones, are equal in size and shape to the original batteries, changing only the mah and weight, our customers notice a duration of more than 30% more than the original battery.

What do you guys think? I've read another topic about a 2400mah Japan battery which was actually 900mah.
Next I've read about this one: http://www.ebay.nl/itm/330683288786 and I've read some stuff about an exploded battery.. something I don't want!!
Please give me some advice from your experience.
Probably fake. Looks like the other one you mentioned (2400mah) with another label.
I'd suggest you to go with anker 1900mah.
Thanks for your reply! But there's a topic about an exploded Anker battery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514929

Anker is the best, I use it, and so does at least half the Sensation forum.
It performs about the same as the stock XE battery.
Batteries such as the one you linked are much, much more likely to explode. Anker is a quality company which does lots of R&D.
Thanks! Just bought this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/320820724921
Good choice. You won't regret.
This anker battery exploded is totally fake. Some users described how fake is this thread.

These scammers know their market, I'll give them that. People who believe that exploding Anker tripe are also likely to believe the fantasy of a 2400+ mAh stock-size battery.

First off all, sorry for opening another topic about a battery but I've read a lot and still don't know which one I've to buy. Currently I'm using the stock battery in my Sensation XE (1730mah). But I've to charge it too many so I want a better one but don't want a custom cover so my phone is thicker.
I've searched on eBay and found a 2680mah battery! But Japan stuff.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/251164807167 which I'm not really trusting. So I've send a message to the seller:
And the response:
What do you guys think? I've read another topic about a 2400mah Japan battery which was actually 900mah.
Next I've read about this one: http://www.ebay.nl/itm/330683288786 and I've read some stuff about an exploded battery.. something I don't want!!
Please give me some advice from your experience.

Hey dude.
I've got 3 batteries:
1: HTC Stock/standard battery.
2: Anker 1900mah
3: The exact same gold one as in the Ebay link.
I find the HTC battery and the Anker battery to be complete garbage.
But, was completely surprised when I bought the gold battery claiming to be 2430 mah (that's what mine says on it) and whilst it may not be genuinely 2430 mah, I have to say...it's MUCH better than the Anker & HTC batteries.
I'm getting 12 hours MORE on my Sensation with the gold battery in, compared to the other 2.....LOVE it!:good:

What was your screen on time?
For me, my gold 2430mah battery is a lot and I mean a LOT better than my Anker and my HTC battery.
over 24 hours of average use, using loads of gps, game, brightness on full etc and still have loads of battery left.
upload pictures online
Could you please post your battery stat like my second photo? I think tapping history will show it.
This is my anker stats. Light usage, but downloaded and installed new build still in this cycle.
I don't see a lot of people using mugen. Any reason in particular? The bulky 3.800mha I understand.. (ugly!)

Over twice the price for marginal (if any) benefit.

just understand it
you cant make a 2450 mah in the same size that the original
it is faked
the anker on the other hand is more optimistic 1950 mah, but it is really strongly(25% better for me)
also, the anker is havier than the original(~3 grams more) - that is what allows it to be stronger
the golden ones will weight the same as the origina, or in the best situation - same as anker
if you want a quality one buy the anker(or the mugen which is also good as the anker but expensive)
Anker or chicitec

I ordered one of these kinps 6300mah extended battery
Did a quick search on the kinps brand, apparently some galaxy note ii users said it was pretty decent so what the hell, it's cheaper than getting the zerolemon which costs quite a fair bit to ship out of the states.
Also, if it isn't close to 6300mah, I can always talk to the seller

maybe itll be just fine for you and that would be great, and i hope it is, but im quite confident in saying its not going to be 6300mAh.
if you spent $4 more, you could have bought a recognized brand like a hyperion 5200 mAh, and gotten better then rated specs. with a knips, or the OP's MPJ, they are one or all of the following:
1) purposely mislabeled capacity to deceive unsuspecting buyers
2) a recycled cell (not good)
3) manufacturing origin: China (Parts and assembly)
imho, i would have spent the extra $4 for quality.

I second that. Hyperion and Anker are the only two trusted double-capacity aftermarket batteries I would consider. 3x capacity - Zerolemon is a king. Every other brand claiming higher capacity just puts a fake label which in a lot of the cases you can remove (label that is) to read the actual battery marking. Samsung is very good at putting max size cells into OEM footprint, so anybody claiming more than 2600 mAh with original footprint is lying. The same with double capacity extended batteries, it's nothing more or less than double amount of original, so don't expect anything higher than 5200 mAh. Anything else will be a lie and you might not even get 2600 mAh or 5200 mAh out of these. Stay AWAY from any "Golden" labeled batteries. I got one of those for my N2 (labeled as 4200 mAh with a footprint of the original N2 3100 mAh). After external measurement it turned out to be slightly bigger than 2000 mAh. And I read the same reviews from others about these Gold batteries.

The thing is, those brands aren't readily available to the majority of the world. For instance, shipping for Anker and Hyperion batteries alone would be too expensive. For example, it costs me around USD55 to get a Zerolemon shipped to AU.
There are plenty of reputable Chinese brands out there too if you knew what they are.
yes this is a good option for my 2-year-old s4
I have a 7800mah anker and I only get about 15 hours from full charge....maybe I use my phone too much?
