Mugen Power 1800mAh Extended Battery

http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...nded-battery-for-htc-desirez-t-mobile-g2.html
says it's out of stock right now. I'll be getting one soon though. Mugen is definitely a trustworthy company.

Needs to be cheaper. :[

You can get a 1800mAh battery for HTC TouchPro2/Evo (that is the same battery) for less... and not from Mugen. But you have to take the RED ones.
I've got one of them and my battery life is really impressive.

Same here, plus you can get two of them for around 30 bucks. Between underclocking down to 245 when the screen is off and the battery, I get a ridiculous amount of battery life.

Damn 44.95 is indeed too much $$$. I would pay that kind of money for minimum a 2200mah one

Single and kit links above - all you need is a nail clipper to clip off some of the black plastic so the battery sits flush in the phone. I also removed the red label on one side (it just peals off). Some have said that it fits without any mods though. Im still in the testing phase of my read chictech. Before power cycling it the battery life was terrible, now that Ive cycled it Im seeing better battery life then stock OEM. I unplugged @ 7AM and I have 65% battery life left on Virtuous 0.70 with moderate to heavy usage throughout the day. HSPA+ on full time, WIFI on full time....see for yourself, I think the singles are only 15$, thats what I got.

Ha! Thanks for the idea! I just pulled my TP2 battery and clipped off the tab and now have an extra 200 mAh for free. Might give me an extra hour or two of battery life. I don't know about those 1800mAh batteries though.... if the 1500mAh has a tough time fitting (closing the battery door), how bad will the 1800mAh be? Might require an extended battery door...

It seems that it does come with another battery cover, therefore i presume it would be about the same as this one:
http://www.batteryupgrade.com/shopBrowser.php?assortmentProductId=19586433&shopGroupId=82066515
Hence, i guess it wouldn't fit with stock cover...

Hmm, would be a pity. I was not sure if a separate cover was to be used or not.
The red ones can't be shipped so it seems. I'll chase up another option

Anker 2800mAh and GTMax 3500 mAh Batteries - my observations

I got a new battery, extended battery to be precise, from Amazon. I felt it was a good deal $12.99 + Free Shipping and ordered it. I got it in 3 days after placing order.
First battery observations:
Anker 2800mAh Extended Battery and Back Door for Samsung Infuse 4G, I997 - White [With a Free Card Reader]
I was kinda skeptical on how it would fare.
I popped the battery in my phone, put it on charge to 100%. And took it off.
After about 24 hours off the charger, here are the stats:
1. Standby: ~24 hours
2. Display: ~2 hours
3. Calls: ~2 hours
4. GPS: ~15 minutes
5. Brightness: 50% of time on auto, rest of the time at ~12%
Current battery level: ~52%
I will update this post with new observations when the battery comes down to 5%.
Note: This is still the first cycle since I got the battery. I think battery life will increase slightly after a couple of cycles.
============================================================
Second battery observations:
GTMax High Capacity Extended Replacement Battery (3500mAh) observations

Observations at ~50%
Observations at ~50%

Observations at ~2%
Observations at ~2%
Standby: 1 day 23 hours 8 mins 8 secs
Voice calls: 2 hours 32 mins 18 secs
Display on: 6 hours 8 mins 4 secs
Display was at 12% for ~1 hour of display, and rest of the time in auto.
Note: There are some minor "ups" in the graph. Looks like battery is setting itself now. See the charging component below, its not on charge the whole of the time. Maybe once the battery calibrates itself, it will all flatten out. Also note that this this the first discharge cycle of this battery.

I got the 2 pack of 1800mah batteries and they get an average if 17-19 hours of usage, they're great in my opinion. I wish they had this option when I was looking for batteries. Is it a Sim battery or does it need a new back plate?

They sent me a new back plate. Its chubbier.
Its about 1.5 days plus on standby, with about 3 hours display and 3 hours calls, and battery is at about 35%. Pretty good so far, I must say.

Added observations at 2%. Looks like you could buy this battery. Its worth the @12.99. Plus, its literally doubled the time off charger.

I actually meant the picture of your phone with the battery. I was curious as to how thicker the phone would be with such a bigger battery. Sorry, I should have been clearer.

When I held it for the first time, it felt a little heavier, but that's expected. Been using since I got it, and hardly feel any difference now. Only thing is, I can't use my existing phone cases anymore.
I think the link in OP also has a pic with phone with this battery on.
Edit: It doesn't. Let me see what I can do.

I had ordered for another extended battery too, just in case the first one didn't work out.
GTMax High Capacity Extended Replacement Battery (3500mAh) + Black Cover for AT&T Samsung Infuse 4G i997
At $9.47 + Free Shipping , I thought it worth the risk.
Trying this one out. Will post updates here on this battery too.

Reserved for observations on GTMax High Capacity Extended Replacement Battery (3500mAh)

I guess using a case is out of the question if you are going to use an extended battery. Battery life means little if I can't protect my phone.

I too thought so. But no one sees the back when you put down or hold. And its a small minus given the battery life.

I understand. But well, its every person's choice I have to be extra careful. I guess now I'll have to get myself a pouch style case, instead of fixed style.

I've had this one for quite some time. Real good battery. Downsides are the lack of case. Since I rooted and loaded the Zeus rom, battery life has improved dramatically. So the extended battery is less of a need for me. I get over 12 hours on a single charge easily. Someday I'll have to pop this puppy back in and get some numbers to post.

Extended battery?

I have an extended battery for my. Inspire(1850 mah) but it still doesn't help that much and I was wondering even though it is a unibody cover if there is an extended battery with a cover like the extended battery for the Google nexus 1
Sent from my magic piece of metal using even more magic

hey let them completely discharge 3 times ( after it dies , wait about 5 minutes and power on the phone again let it power off)
don't let the battery charging over night . about a 3 hr and 30 mins to 4 hr will do.
i have a 1500 mA battery . it last me about a 1 with heavy use .( temple run , music , pandora , gps , text , photos , and reading )

Never try to let you batteries run completely dead. This will shorten the life of Li-Ion batteries. And feel free to let your batteries charge over night. When the battery gets charged fully the charging will stop or slow as needed. They will not overcharge. The charging systems of phones have their own regulation. Not sure where previous poster got his info. Guess his phone still uses NiCads.
Yet to see an extended battery for The Inspire with the custom cover. There is a battery pack that attaches to the back of the phone but I can't remember the make. There was big talk when they were released but I hear little about them now.

that i read , is not good to let the battery over charge , that has happened to me, i have let it over charge overnight , after that the battery life gets reduce, i have an app call current monitor , after the battery reach 4.209 V . if i let sit there charging, the voltage starts to go down . ( maybe is the app)
with a 3 hour charge , i get about a day use out of the cell phone . letting the battery died the first three time you put it in the phone , i was told by th rep of the company that sold me the item , like i said before i get pretty good battery life , even with heavy use , now that temple run is in android . even more fun ..

Not that its a huge improvement over 1850 but the best I've seen for the inspire are 2000mAh, I just kept searching on ebay in 100 mAh increments until I got no results.

Sadly there are no "real" extended batteries for the inspire, they all have exaggerated
ratings, and the Powerskin is an external battery/case and I like my otterbox to much
to use it.

cool i'll have to pick one up

Be extra careful were you buy your extended life batteries from.. i ordered two and got what i paid for... they were 1850mAh which did last about 4 hours longer then the original but which one my camera didnt work... Said something to the tune of "Cannot use flash in cold weather conditions"... When i saw this for the first time i was like WTF its 80 degrees outside... then i changed batteries again and it worked... obviously something wrong in the battery.
It i probably worth spending a little more money on the battery to get better quality product.

saw this on ebay...2450mah
highest capacity ever for the HTC DESIRE HD or INSPIRE 4G
you can search on ebay for HTC DESIRE HD 2450mah...
not sure about it's performance, since it's made in china.

you are awesome

Probably not.
According to the DHD community the Mugen is the only trustworthy one, and that's at around 1650mah. The ones you see online are rarely what they claim to be.

1800 Andida good

Basically Mugen and Anker are the only good extended batteries it seems, and even then they don't seem to help much. D: I still wanna pick up an extra battery just in case for long trips, etc.

Larger is Better?

I've has my Galaxy S4 which is battery life has never been great for almost a year. It usually last 10-11 hrs while the signal/WiFi are good. I've cleared up the cache partition and done a factory reset but still battery drain fast. I need my S4 to hold up at least one whole day. Should I get an extended battery? I’ve found a 7000 mAh battery, is it the larger the better? Thanks for support!

A 7000 mAh battery will keep the phone going around 5-7 days on a single charge, probably

You could go with the extra battery kit as well. And get a couple more anker batteries to bring along outdoors so you can swap around.

Note 4 Anker battery

How are you guys feeling about this battery? I decided to try it out, back when I had the GS3 I bought one of those 9000mah batteries and it was an extremely rare day that I went below 50% battery, so I went for the 6000mah anker battery here since it is cheaper.
I definitely feel like it has extended life, but it feels like it's only about 50% better as opposed to 100% longer life. I can usually make it to the end of the day now, whereas before I was putting it on the charger when I'd get home from work every day.

It all depends on the use of the phone. I know people that make 3 days use with Zerolemon and some make 18 hrs.
BAD ASS NOTE 4

Anker 6400mah?
[email protected] BOC5 stock, for now.

Im thinking the same!
I want to buy the replacement battery for note 4 3220mah , they say they have stronger cells!

I bought the 2 ankar batteries that a rotate with the OEM. they are very good and worth the money.
only complaint would be there is a plastic piece on the bottem of the battery that locks it into place. I left it in my car a couple time and it melted and fell off. so now on one of the batterys it fits loose and sometime makes my phone reboot from being knocked around. but i added some tape to the bottem and it fixed the lock and i dont have the problem anymore. it only happened with one of the batteries.

is the battery life better on the anker one? than the original samsung battery

I posted (at length) on my experience with the 3220mah battery here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60356709&postcount=7
Hope that helps

I just got the Anker 3220 last week & so far it does seem to do a little bit better than the stock battery. Not by much, but I've definitely noticed that I don't need to put on on the charger as much.
