Just purchased a Sensation XE back cover from ebay THIS one to be precise.
Comparing to my old one and it is definetly an original if not an amzingly good copy.
Delivery was surprisingly fast as I ordered it on 27th March and arrived today, I'm in the UK BTW. Surpised as their delivery estimate was 14 days. Was very well packaged too. They've even offered me a £1.20 rebate if I give them 5* feedback. Which I have no qualms with as they were excellent.

Which is which?
Turn the cover around, original has a time stamp on it
Yes they do one is 04/11/2011 and the other 27/09/2011.

Im not sure If this will help for some of the guys here but I found a site that sells really cheap battery for HTC Diamond Li-Ion 900mAh. I bought 2 of them and so far the delivery is fast took 2 days and so far I have no complaints on the battery performance.
http://www.cellphoneshop.net/diamondbattery.html
wow, $10US! thats cheap
ordered two also, let's hope it's an ok site, never heard of them before.
I've just ordered one...I hope you were right; 5$ shipping to the UK
I am using one, it is fine, just a small bit bigger than the original one and was tight inserting it into the non-HTC cradle when compared to the HTC battery, but fits diamond perfectly.
Why go for that when you can get it from dealextreme for only $6.99 including delivery!

Finally got the "shipped" email. now to wait for 7-10 business days for them to arrive :|
Hi !
I've found on ebay :
2x 900mAh for 9 USD + 3 USD shipping
I've bought the package 2x 900mAh + charger for 15 USD ...

Seems to be a nice deal
Just wonder how they sold the battery at such price but with profit? Think the safty and pollution point before giving your money for such nice deal.
Another el-cheapo battery.. will order one

Any one know where i can get replacement battery back cover for s743 (s740), the original with rubber back.
.....from HTC ?

The Image shows not what you get so don´t worry.....
Thank you
I was hopping to locate one in US, the only one i could find was http://www.expansys-usa.com/d.aspx?i=172175
interesting that they all are back ordered until the end of June.
I think the Expansys and the "Original" from HTC are the same....and on the HTC Homepage they say "......expect shipment in 15 working days....." .....so its correct that they are back ordered until the end of June.............
UPDATE

Ordered one Anker battery...
Thanks for the heads up! I ordered mine tonight, probably get it next week.
The seller has a 99% Positive Lifetime feedback and they have a 30 day Full refund return policy for defective items. Plus they reimburse your return shipping costs.
The only thing I didn't like was the high shipping costs... $3.00 per item plus $3.99. And the fact I got charged sales tax since I live in California. I checked the sellers web site and they are based in San Jose, California. My order total was $17.81.
As far as the Anker battery, I'll be putting it to the full test when I get it.
just ordered mines also.
hmm.. I register just to tell you guys this is better deal, only 10 bucks on ebay and free shipping. So much for my lurking on XDA... lol.

The same seller, I think is also selling 2x for 18.99?. =)
Not all that fond of eBay but...
The Anker battery is cheaper...looks to the same company too...oh well, looks like I overpaid by $8. If the Anker works out I'll order my next battery from eBay.

In the other thread (confusing having two of them about the same battery ), someone who received his Anker confirmed that it's a little bit thicker than stock, but fits just fine in the slot and back cover.
I believe the situation is similar with the Chichitech battery.
Anker Battery
I purchased two Anker batteries for my Sensation about 3 wks ago and have used both of them extensively. I immediately noticed significant improvement in battery life first day which is what I'd hoped given the increased capacity of 1900mAh. It seems that I'm getting roughly 1/3 more battery life which is slightly more than the difference in mAh which could also be a factor of better battery quality. I can get through the entire day with little difficulty. A big improvement over the stock HTC battery.
Good looks! I just bought one. I can get about 9-11 hours of constant and heavy use. Hopefully this battery bumps it up to 13-16.

So I wanted to find a cheap car upgrade kit that was OEM but there didn't seem to be anything outside of $60 even on eBay. Then I stumbled on http://www.all4cellular.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=htc+sensation&cat=&x=0&y=0 after some random Google searching. Looked sorta shady at first but I placed an order for the OEM CUK and lo and behold, a couple days later, I got a genuine kit with an HTC box (with the $60 price tag!) for under 20 bucks. I noticed they have the OEM dock for cheap, as well as some other OEM related goodies.
Not sure if they ship internationally for you fine folks across the border/water. I can post pics when I get home from the library tonight if you guys want. Also, I checked seller ratings and the site seems reliable enough. I just wish this kit could be reassigned to open up a different app than HTC Nav
Sorry if this is a repost, I tried searching. If not, enjoy!
Unfortunately shipping to The Netherlands costs around 30 euros :'(

It sure can.
1) Remove the Htc Laputa and Location related apk's from /system/app (but do not delete the HtcLocationService!)
2) Remove the DockMode.apk, and replace it with a DockMode.apk from a T-MO RUU (or T-MO based rom)
3) Install the HtcCarPanel.apk
Done. Now when you dock, it will launch the lovely HTC Car Dock.
I know details are sketchy, but I can put up the necessary files if need be tomorrow.

Tried this but I maybe I didn't have the right files. HCP.apk wouldn't open after it was installed. Do I have to delete Laputa and Location or can I just freeze them?
Whoohoo - finally was able to afford the HTC car dock. Hopefully it comes, like the OP said, the reviews for the site are good, I also used paypal to check out so they didn't get my CC info.
Also use this coupon code for 5% off: a4c6a7
I wanted to update, I ordered the HTC car dock from these guys and received an incorrect item (they sent me a bluetooth headset, worth more on their site). I thought "oh great, I just got scammed."
I emailed them and the quickly responded with a new tracking number and paid return shipping for the bluetooth headset.
Anyway, if anyone is worried about ordering from these guys I can say, in my case, that they were very responsive. It sucks they had the mix up, but they did what they could to make it right (they even cross shipped, newegg doesn't even do that!).
And the OEM car dock is just what I was looking for. It's still not worth $60, but for $20 it's a steal.
Sweet find, just ordered to micro usb cables. Just to see if their good. All goes good I'm ordering that evo3d battery from there! lol 10% coupon btw.
Thanks for this dude, only wish they had the white battery cover for the sensation for $25 plus the 10% coupon? I would have brought it in a heartbeat.
Thank you! Just bought the dock!!

I just got my order (The original usb cable) and they are legit and brand new. One thing though, they sent me a pair of head phones also which i didnt order or pay for weird. Oh well time to return them

Shipping to Canada is like $22 dollars. Kinda kills the deal.

Ordered the car dock.. I have been wanting one of these ever since I got the S4G in June. $19.05 total after discount.
I hope it is robust as the car dock that I used with N1.
Mugen Power Battery Case for HTC One XL video review. The case comes in black and white colours, check their website. I have made the video review below. Link to their website is http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/htc/htc-one-xl.html I love these guys have bought batteries for my HTC Sensation and Desire Z and they perfom so much better than the stock batteries. Dont buy those cheap ones of ebay which cost less than $40. They wont last as long as these guys. Hit Thanks If you like
Just a public service announcement as well. If you want something more "generic" which can power just about any mobile device (though admittedly it won't be as integrated as Mugen's battery cases - which are very good if you want that form factor), Daily Steals has what looks to be a good one on sale (mon 8/6):
http://www.dailysteals.com/
The reviews shows these guys as shady, but I did buy a gnex from them and besides a delay in the shipping, they fulfilled their end of the transaction.
Definitely will be ordering one. If the 6000 is only a little bit more I'm assuming that is the one to get...? I'm so glad Magen finally went through with these. When you get yours write a first impressions/review!!

6000 is a little excessive considering our battery is 1800. We only need 3200 to make it last pretty darn long but yeah like you said it's only a bit more
Sent from my magical box
Looks nice... but damn that price is pretty high. Guess when push comes to shove at the end of my contract I'll get one of these.
From what I see, the 6000mah you'll have to charge it separate, the 3200 mah one you can charge in the same time with the phone... Does it makes it much thicker? Just curious, cause I still think the stock one is plenty enough for me.

I wish there was a noname one out for our phones, I would have bought one already :/ I've always had a noname extended battery. I love having it I never have to turn anything off and still get 4+ hours of screen time with plenty to spare when I get home at night
just want to see how much thicker it makes the phone. I kind of enjoy the profile of the HTC One X
I'm concerned about the speakerphone being muted with that case. It already isn't that loud without a case on it.
I sure would like to see it and see how thick it is, love the feel of the phone now.

I think they have published the sizes
the 3200mah is 14mm thick
the 6000mah is 22mm thick
Check the sizes here as well - 6000mAh and 3200mAh
Anyone has real photos of this one with the phone?
My order is 12 days away, remember I will put the video review up once I get the battery. I got the 3200mAh btw
I want one, but it's more than I paid for the phone itself on contract -______-
If your video is good I'll definitely be buying one. I really want to be able to use this phone all day. 3 hours of conservative screen on time isn't enough. I want at least 5-6 hard use.

I would really like to get a white case! Man the things I'll be able to do with my phone all day if this is good. Never have to worry about charging mid day again.
My Mugen 3200mAh Battery case finally arrived
My battery just came in the mail and the video review will be available in about 6hrs from now as i can only collect the package 2hrs from now. SO get excited people this is the only brand i trust when it comes to aftermarket batteries as they are really the capacities they specify and they peform for a very long time much better than those $30 battery cases. Video review will be up before 6pm Australian Eastern Standard Time. Juss to get an idea on delivery times it was posted on the 12th of Septemeber and arrived on the 19th of September however the battery had been ordered early August, they had no stock hence the delay but their shipping is super fast!
Well, just ordered mine...10-15 days
Thinking of getting one but it soon thick! Lol I can barely hold my phone in one hand right now
