I almost posted this Problem but i habe a new Problem. My Problem was, that the Anker battery i recieved only has 1580 mAh. I controlled it with more than One app from the market. Now i wrote to the company, where i bought it(amazon at Laptopmate Germany). The told me that i will recieve a new One. I recieved it today and it has got 1580 mAh too-.-
I Know it firstly must calibrate, but with this, it dont change the capacity..
Whar should i Do?
I already wrote to them again and i must wait for an anwer till tomorrow..

yeah, i know...
but i bought it, because other users here told, that its good.
they've got 1900 mah...
it try to contact anker now. maybe they can help me..
The battery really is 1900 mAh, but you cannot use the sensation to measure its capacity - the battery driver is seriously flawed and will give you rubbish figures, no matter which 'app' you use.
If you want to test the capacity then you'll have to make a rig with a known resistive value and time a drop in voltage, you could then calculate the capacity of the battery - but its a lot of work...
Also, the quoted battery capacity is a theoretical value, you'll never get to use all of it due to the way Li-ion cells work.

Don't worry man. If you wanted to see it's capacity with some software it can't be done. I have noticed that Battery monitor widget recognises new batteries as 1580 mah, but it doesn't mean anything. Your batter's fine
Oh okay.
Then i habe got 2 ankers for the price of One Now
But is there any simple way, to Check capicity?

There are probably two possibilities:
Use the stock battery, charge to 100% and notice how long it stays alive.
In Settings -> Power -> Accu Usage you´ll find a statistic about the powerdrain and the actual ontime.
After some charge cycles change to the anker and redo the steps. Then you will have an approximate result on how long your battery extend your batterylife.
The second approach is to touch the batterycontacts by your tounge. The harder the pain, the much higher it´s capacity
I´ve got the Anker for about 2 or 3 month and replace it sometimes with the stock. I´d say it stays alive for about 30% longer. (~2 Days 17 Hours)
My Problem is, i did the First method and the Anker isnt better.
My battery stays about 15 hours with Not more than 3 hours screen on. With both batterys.

Your problem is either your phone or the ROM, I get at least double that performance from the same anker battery.
The anker is only 20% greater capacity than the standard battery, that won't make much difference to your poor battery life. Do some searching to reduce your power consumption and getting your phone to sleep properly - if you are still on stock or ROM with wakelock issues then those are your most likely causes.

Me too! You sound exactly like me! I went through everything before I finally found this battery! I'm really happy now with the Mugen. It seems to be a true extended life battery. But you have to sacrifice the thin phone for it. It will make phone thicker but that didn't matter to much to me because of the excellent battery life. I guess it's a give and take. Battery life makes up for it for me but some people would never have it due to the thickness. It just depends on what you want. For me I was after battery life so I'm very happy. I got used to the thickness in about a week. If you don't mind the thickness give it a try! You won't be disappointed. The extra back they provide could be made better but the battery itself is really amazing! Your situation sounds exactly like mine so I think if you get the 3800mah you will be very pleased. As long as the thickness doesn't bother you. I do wish you the best and hope you get your battery issues solved soon! Good luck!

+1. There is no way the amount of space we have available for our batteries that you are going to get any more energy cells. Its all bull. The stock battery is the best you will get. If you suspect it is not performing its best, take it in to att and they will replace it if its gone bad prematurely.

It ships from asia. I dont buy anything that ships from asia cause you risk it being a fake. But here is a link on reviews of it from other users who purchased it.
http://www.htcdesirehdforum.com/htc...rnative-battery-2430mah-high-capacity-bas470/
The Anker 1600 mah battery is like $8? $9? On ebay. After batt calibration, this thing can go over 36 hrs running cm7. Mugen's are awesome too. Not all the batteries on there are bad, but as a general rule, stay away from anything shipping from Asia.
Still it is the wrong forum but as long as the topic is open....
+1 for the Anker 1600 batteries. Picked up 2 and a universal charger on ebay for about $15. Have only been using one of the batteries. But the difference is very noticeable over the HTC battery. Much better battery life. Installed Battery Monitor Widget to get some stats on the battery. Reported at 1480mAh. Don't know if the app is correct. HTC battery may have been starting to degrade already too which says alot of its quality. But the Anker battery so far for me has been out performing the HTC battery.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004XUNRRQ/ref=oh_o06_s00_i00_details bought those and they are great i easily get 2 days out of one battery, 20$ you get 2 1600mAh and a standalone charger, i think its a great deal!

Looks fake to me. I bought an extended battery a few months ago to replace my stock battery. It was actually worse than the stock battery. I would bet that this is a standard capacity battery with a gold packaging to make it look even better.
I bought a refurb'd inspire 4g. My battery was faulty, like my phone kept shutting down randomly.
Then I got a battery from aftermarket, all is well.
Mine lasts 2 days with juice defender, without it, it's like 6 hrs.
Radio makes a lot of difference to battery life. Don't see how you can put an extended battery in an inspire casing... just saying..

You can't, but I've tried saying this in this thread before and people just don't want to hear it. The amount of space available for the inspire battery can not pack anymore energy cells. It's physics. Unless they have some new crazy technology that no one has heard of.

I used to say the same thing over and over. But my white laptopmate batteries are still kicking butt. Battery monitor rates them on average of 1475mAh. If you want to call that extended, I wouldn't. No it doesn't rate them 1600 like the packaging says. Whether that value is correct or not doesn't really matter to me. They work well and I believe better than the original. Our oem battery is chinese made too by the way.
And maybe these third party manufacturers do rate them loosely. Or maybe the oem batteries are rated very conservatively. I never had a chance to see what battery monitor rated my oem. But these 2 batteries and universal charger were worth every penny of the $15 I spent.
I learn that if turn off the wifi when you not use, will let unit run longer
Just got this battery today ordered it from fleebay few weeks ago, guna see how it goes, 1 thing is do you think the mAh is right was only £5 plus pnp so no big loss if its not better than the stock which I'm getting about 12 hours out of with moderate use

*Looks* like it may hold about as much as an Anker.
If it fits under the stock back cover............
There's no way that's a 2800mah battery. Do a couple test and see what the deal is, but it is definitely somewhere around 1500-1800mah.
works really good i bought it over on ebay it does wat it says for real i get through the whole day without a prob with modrate use aday and couple of hours i had the package where i get 2 batt which really is a great deal for 15$ better way bettter then stock batt i recommend iit to all fellow xda and ppl that looking at this post to buy it but be sure it have 2 batt and wall charger its rally handy product rating from me 4.5 out 5

Guys, is it safe to use High capacity battery for my HTC Sensation??
You'll find a lot of threads in Accessoires-Section. But to shortly answer your question: I have one Anker with 1900mAH and I am really happy. Lasts much longer and it seems that recharging is faster, too. Measured time with stock battery and with anker and anker simply charged the same time (battery was at 1 %).
But: no correct temperature is shown. This you'll find on all replaycement batteries.
I got one too and can vouch for it as well. Its a great battery.

I bought this battery in 2011y on ebay that claimed to be 2450mAh but it was only 1400-1500mAh.
Original battery works for me (on JB ROM) around 18-24h, with this fake - around 20-26h.

Just bought one in Spain from eBay too. 8.5 eur, free shipping. I'll discharge it first to 0( it came 70% charged), then I'll run nova battery tester benchmark and post results.

How well does it perform compared to the Anker one? The most I've gotten out of my Anker so far is three and a half day, but that is without using it a lot. I find that it mostly depends on the ROM you're using tho, and due to that I prefer the sensless ROMs, because they seem to run a lot lighter than their Sense counterparts. But hey, that's my observation.

Okay I want to put this business about bad battery life and battery bugs and all that jazz to bed.
Look at my battery graph. I rest my case.
Any battery problems are not with the ROM. It's clearly capable of having disgustingly good battery life.
That's 4 DAYS since unplugging with 8% battery life left as of right now.
That includes 2 hours and 40 minutes of screen on time
45 minutes of phone talk time
This is on the April 26th build. And this is the FIRST charge since flashing that build. So the battery use probably isn't even maximized yet.
My settings are OnDemand 192 - 1242
Anker battery
Auto Brightness is off and I use the notification bar swipe to adjust brightness as needed
Alterations made to the Google Services Framework to eliminate Google Wakelocks (this has nothing to do with Albino's code, hence it's not the ROM) Click here for more details
Greenify to keep other wakelocky apps on a short leash. (I'm looking at you T Mobile's My Account app. You're so useful but you think you own the place!)
Haptic feedback is off for everything. The only thing that's allowed to use the vibration function is the ringer (I don't use a ringtone, vibrate only) and reminder notifications. If you have haptic feedback on for every press on the screen and keyboard you are basically giving up battery power to run a small electric motor. That's not an efficient use of limited battery life.
Full disclosure. I don't keep mobile data on all the time. I turn it on as needed. And I've been very busy doing other stuff the past 4 days so there hasn't been a ton of use time. Obviously if I had been using it more it wouldn't have lasted 4 days. But if the ROM can idle for 4 days and not drain itself dry, then battery problems aren't in the ROM. They are with apps, settings, or user error. Albino's ROM can be configured to run for what may as well be for freakin' ever on a single charge. I'm half expecting him to add "sustainable cold nuclear fusion" to the changelog of the next build.
So if you've got battery issues, go buy an Anker before you do anything else. Even if you have other problem that will make everything better. And stop talking about battery issues in this thread. Come to the FAQ thread (see link in my signature) and ask questions about how to improve battery life there. We'll take all battery questions there with a smile and be glad to help you, where in this thread battery questions will be met with verbal beratement for clogging up the thread with whining.

If battery that you want is not available in your ebay you can always buy it at foreign one and have it shipped to you. Still the costs can be ridicullus and shipping time irritating. Also what Razi said is true.

Hello, my battery is charging incredible slow.
I have been using my first battery for about 1 year. Then i got spare battery as 'sorry' from Htc Repair Service, because they din't fix falling of display at first.
So i used my first battery for 1 year, then put it in shelf, charged to 2/3 of capacity.
Then i started using second battery - Genuine One from service.
It's 1 year from then. Battery is charging incredible slowly. I also tried changing charger for 2AMP (tablet, genuine nexus 7), but it didn't help at all.
What can be problem ? I also tried cleaning charging port, didn't help.
I put my phone on charger this morning with 15%. Now it's 4 hours later, and battery has only 80%.
