i have this one, it improves the duration of the Battery so that i lasts one day. But i doubt its 3500mh.

search Ebay for 3500mah battery LG P920. u will find prices ranging from $7 to $160.
I am ordering a $7 battery for the thicker back cover only and then try to use two original LG P920 batteries with their terminals soldered in Parallel.
I should have better battery life (nearly twice) charging time will double, but i wont have to worry about the back cover!!!
hope this works!!

EDIT:::
Got the 3500mah extended battery + back cover from ebay for $6.88. Followed instructions on charging. Using them for 15 days now, battery life is twice the original battery!!
HAPPPPIIIEEEEE!!!!!!!!

Its 3104mah. And dont last 3x more than the stock one... i bought exactly the same as this

Hi
The stock battery is 1500mah. so if this battery is 3104mah, it should last nearly twice!
whats the battery life? sine how long have you used this battery?

Extended Battery

do you think those batteries are reliable ? does anyone here using them ?
I would like to hear about it from someone whose using it...thanks...

i'm adding to the theme. want to buy battery from mugen power, want to see what people saying.

I look on ebay the ground.

if your oem battery is working fine ( rate: 12 hours - data and sync always on ) , then just buy a powerbank. cheapest one only 8usd on ebay.

I think the best idea is to buy a little portable charger.

I'm using a Belkin Portable Power Pack 1000 F8M158, and I must say it's one of those things you're glad you have in your pocket.:laugh:

Lol the hong kong guy on ebay mistakenly sent me 2 powerbank ( 2800mAh x 2 )
So, two powerbank for the price of one. Quite cheap

I've been wanting to try the extended battery for some time now but dont know if there is a remarkable increase in battery life with these.. Practically, how much more life do you get out of one of these?

U r going to get a few hours more. But with smart management u can get a full day or a day more. But the real catch is now u have a spare battery (the stock one) for a quick swap - full charge.

Ive heard good things about mugen battery replacements. Not sure how cheap they are though

Can these batterys harm somehow to phone? Better battery life is something like "utopia" these days, with smartphones.

i think u should buy a orignal battery ,, instead of extended ones,, the kernel reads it like its still 1450 mah,, u need a special kernel for extended batteries to work properly, which we do not have!! and some extended batteries also lift up the screen from inside,

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.

I've heard mugen makes a 1800 mah battery has anyone gotten one of these, if so does it fit well and does it last as long as it claims.

I bought a Polarcell 1600mAh battery on ebay and I would recommend it. Was about 12 Euros I think.

SCUD brand battery is quite good

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%.

Best aftermarket battery?

Hello
Im going to put a larger capacity battery in my Desire Z and I wanted some recommendations. Also, normal sizes (as in demensions); None that come with a additional cover to compensate for the normal size this making the phone bigger.

Ankers 1600mAh, lasts for me more than 2 days between charges. Got mine for a fiver off eBay, brand new.

If its worth it...

Hi,
I'll also went with the Anker. 2 Days without charging even when using custom roms... Definetely a good choice for this Price!

riahc3, if you ask for advice, don't argue about there being higher capacity batteries, if you want the mugen go get it, but if you asked advice in the first place then don't get annoyed when people don't give you the answer you want to hear. Sorry, that's just the way I see it.
If you're after numbers rather than advice, take both. Look at my screenies, yeah I know I'm a light user, under clocked and had a sneaky charge in between but this was on CM10.1 build 15 which supposedly has battery problems, and as you can see I listened to music for a couple of hours as well. Also everyone else here has gotten at least 2 days between charge with Ankers.

battery info
I am also thinking about buying a new battery but I think that it doesn't matter how much mAh of the battery has. I think that real question is how will be after 6 months of usage. Most of these aftermarket batteries are start good but after few weeks or months they become useless. So we need real user feedback. Is there anyone who uses any of the aftermarket battery more than few months?
I've started to use JellyBaby v1.5 ROM and I've decided to buy new battery instead of new device.

I've been using the Mugen battery for over two years now. Still get good battery life, although playing games drains it pretty fast. I can last two full days if I try, but it's pushing it. One day is easy.

2 day is sufficient

I don't know about battery life of iPhone 5, S3, Note2, etc but I think that under normal circumstances battery life of our phones should be 2 days.
Do you use home-screen widget or lock screen widget? Does they have any effect on battery life?

aftermarket battery? you're better off getting a oem, a lot of aftermarkets don't live up to the levels they advertise.
I recommend the evo 4g design battery, it fits perfect in our devices at a whopping 1520 mah compared to stock's 1300mah

A 200 mah difference wont matter
But 3 times stock mah means something

2450MAH High Capacity Battery?

While looking for new battery for my sensation, found this battery.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2450MAH-Hig..._Cell_Phone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item3a769ad5b7
It a 2450MAH High Capacity Japanese Battery and it only $6! I was wondering if anyone have tried this and should I buy this? I was gonna buy an anker but after looking at some battery on ebay found this. There are also 2 of these plus a charger for only $10! Way cheaper than the anker...

It has been proven many times that the 2450mah claim for this battery is extremely exaggerated.
If a battery manufacturer will lie (quite a large lie) about the specs, then I would also highly doubt the quality & longevity of it.
Also, I really doubt they are made in Japan.
So NO, go and buy an Anker in other words, they are by far the best.

Ok thanks. One more thing, does the charger that is included with the anker have usb? Just one anker battery cost $17 and 2 anker plus a charger cost $30. I'm only gonna need one battery but looking at my charger which is a bit ripped I want another charger just to be safe. So was wondering if the anker charger included in the pack of 2 battery has usb plug like the stock charger.

Well the charger I got from Anker has a micro-usb connection input (female), but there is nothing else supplied. So you need another HTC charger (or similar) to power it up.

Anker or Mugen power.
I personaly bought the Mugen power (1950 Mah ) and I'm very happy with it's performance.
It's true that it's more expensive that the Anker batery but it had some better argumented reviews at the time I was searching plus the thermometer (I like to know if and whae the battery gets warmer).

As you can see to this link he sells thousands batteries. I bought too "gold" batteries for friends. They didn't said me something bad. For me i afraid to take something like that. Maybe go to Anker battery at future

ok after all this time using gold battery from ebay I can confirm it works fine. I'm still putting my phone on charge every evening but I'm just used to doing that. phone can last three day on moderate usage no gaming just phone calls, texting, some browsing and so on. much better than original battery. from my experience with two different HTC phones with the same kind of cheap gold battery I can confirm it works fine and is high quality.

Saying that it is high quality seems a little like exaggeration.

i used my HTC DHD for over a year with gold battery, then gave it to my brother and he is now using this phone around a year long with same battery what he says that the phone lasts at least two days for him. and two days is still longer than I was getting with my HTC DHD with brand new original battery. so think what you want but honestly see no point in buying quite expensive anker battery or what ever else you guys are using.

i got 2 anker batteries and a wall charger for £13 off eBay and they have done me quite well. i use one during the day and then (7am - 5pm) and then i have my other one charging ready for me to just pop into my phone. so I'm never out of power. i also have one of the 2450mah ones and i see the anker lasts at least 3 hours longer.
