Hi.. this is for sale on Ebay. What you think, worth to buy?
Its a Seidio 1600 ma battery that fits in without new back cover... £28...
###Edit### I checked Seidio's website and theres no battery for Desire... so this must be for Nexus One. Just wonder they really are 100% compatible? ##
T-mobile promised to send me a new one, but they are out of stock so they refunded my accounr with £20 to buy one on my own. Not sure if this one is good/safe etc...(?)
Thanks

Seems good 'on paper'. But I never understood why a phone's manufacturer wouldn't supply a device with the highest capacity possible (with the same size) unless it had 'adverse' effects on something, no matter how small.

Keep cost down, like not providing a case or docking station.
Just wonder how much more would the +200 mah do. Seidio seems to be a known brand though - also if it is for Nexus - is it really the same battery?
It does look as though the battery for the Desire is the same as for the Nexus One. Both seem to quote part number BA S410 tor the standard battery.
Tested it - I tried the Seidio Nexus One in the Desire and it works perfectly.
So whats the battery life like then? Is a 14% increase going to be noticed?
What would be great is two batteries in parallel covered by a skin with no back plate!

just found this as well for nexus. Hope it helps till we get a definite answer

TBH id want one of these
http://mobile.engadget.com/2010/03/29/seidio-3200mah-nexus-one-battery-hands-on/
Wow seems like the 3200 has amazing battery life but everyone is complaining about the back cover.
Im sure this would work fine in the desire - just need a skin which will cover it without the backplate on at all but with lens cover and we are all sorted!
you know what?? i need clarity on extended life battery so bear with me. Does this go ontop of normal battery hence doubling life. or is it just a bigger capacity replacement battery so longer battery.
Sorry i just needed a bit of clarity
it has the same width/height as standard battery (fits in slot) but double the thickness almost like to stacked on top of each other in parellel. That means the original backing plate wont fit on anymore so they supply a replacement.
Checkout the video from the nexus one forum

Could you pls let us know if the 1600 one is worth to get? Is there any real difference? Thanks
it´s same the battery of the nexus and desire ?¿?¿
thanks
Ordered one but the daft ebay seller sent me the standard HTC battery!
which battery did you order? 1600??
Simple. The Amaze's battery fits in our device. All you need to do is flip it so the point match up right.
Our battery is 1520 mAh
The Amaze is 1730 mAh. I can get a good 2 days on this battery, I'm not sure how. But I do, and it's great. Much better than buying an extended.
Also after some research I found that the EVO 3D, Shooter, Sensation (All?), and some others have the same battery. Just need to flip the battery to fit.
I'd post Pics, but I only have one working battery now. So trust me on this, I'm sure there's other battery threads. But none talking about other compatible batterys.
i might just get an amaze battery....i was thinking about a mugen but the skeptical about the price and mixed reviews
I'm not going to waste my money. I'm buying the SGSIII at the months close if all goes well with my paycheck. I'll give my sis or mom this phone with Bulletproof installed. I personally can't wait to get rid of this brick. I don't use the keyboard... I must b the only one with this phone who has yet to use the keyboard to type more than a paragraph.

Anker is the best bang for your buck. But modded and rooted, I've increased the battery life of my phone two fold. Phone is definitely usable with stock battery if you tweak it properly

Actually, the Anker battery is marketed for the sensation, so that thread was talking about a compatible battery.

Same here. I won a One S, but had to sell it. Never even used it, I'm in the same ball park as you. I was buying a Note, but I want to keep T-Mo. I'm considering a GNEX, but that GSIII is calling me. Then again, all GNEX owners are saying to buy a GNEX. Wait for the new Nexus. I'm torn, and I really need help. As where all "Friends" here. What should I do? I love AOKP ( have it on my Kindle Fire) But Touchwiz 4, and Quad Cores. You see how this is hard... :T

For the extra little boost, do it. Just buy a real HC branded one. Also the Evo 3D, and Sensations (All?) Work. I have tested the Evo 3D, Sensation 4G/3G/XE. The Amaze. One of the perks of my new Job, lots of phones. So I see what works on what.

Best battery I've used for this phone is the Anker 1900. There is a 2150 that will fit but, it is expensive and not easy to find a real one. I forget who makes it but, the battery life is probably the same as the Anker. Many companies, even MugenPower, lie about the actual mAh of the batteries they make.

You can keep T-Mobile if you buy a Note outright. You can flash a radio that will work with T-Mobile's 4G. The Galaxy Nexus is nice, but the camera is a little lacking from what I've heard. The Galaxy S III will probably be my next phone, but only because I have an upgrade coming up and it will be cheaper than a Galaxy Nexus and Note. Also, there will be some AOSP Roms for the GS III since it will be a pretty high end device.

Certainly mere 12% larger capacity battery cannot give 200% or more usage time, it is not possible (and I'm assuming your standard battery could keep up for 1 whole day - which mine can't).
So there has to be some other factors involved here.
Perhaps your HTC Amaze battery is rated 4.2V instead of 3.7V?
(Ours DoubleShot is 3.7 Volt, and so is Amaze supposedly, but I've seen few 4.2V batteries for Amaze/Sensation on ebay, for example I still have THIS ONE bookmarked - if those are not mistakes, of course)
If so, perhaps running slightly higher voltage battery at lower current would/could extend it's usage time? (although I'm not so sure is it healthy for the device, even though it is only 0.5V difference)
The Anker battery is 4.2V max charge, not 4.2V battery. Most (if not all) 3.7V Li-Ion (and Li-Po) batteries that are 3.7V have a max charge voltage of 4.2V.

Lol, they sure do! Most of the BestBuy extended life batteries are Li-Po. I thought I read that the One S's built in battery is a Li-Po, which would make sense since the cells are generally smaller.
??? 3.7 vol 4.2 vol good or bad ?

I'm thinking about buying the ZeroLemon Samsung Galaxy S4 3000mAh Battery. Any opinions? I heard zerolemon was a pretty good company but I just wanted to confirm.
I bought mine about a month a go and I can definitely feel the difference in the duration of screen-on time. I went from like 4.5 hours to 5 hours roughly. More than worth the price.

Bought my pair a few months ago. I don't remember the last time I actually plugged my phone into a charger. I just swap the batteries from the phone to the wall charger. I usually get about 15 hours of decent use, about 3.5 hours of screen time, out of each. It's a great buy.

Man i've tried emailing bastexwireless but they said they don't have any in stock.. still waiting for something i'll let you know if i find anything..
Does this battery add any bulk, size wise I mean, to the phone? I know the weight will probably be heaver but I had an extended battery for my old Photon 4G and had to go without a case on it because of the size of the battery. I don't want to have to do that but this battery looks promising from what I see.
maybe its matter, maybe not... but note that this battery do not have NFC chip.
i also thought about to buy that battery, but for me, the lack of this NFC chip is a deal breaker.

U will perhaps find it slightly harder to put the battery cover on, but it will fit the same way as stock. Cases wouldn't be an issue.

They took nfc away so it can have a slightly higher battery capacity.
The battery very slightly bulges at the back. If you have a very very specific tight fitting case you will notice the slight inconsistancy. I had one that fit the Galaxy S4 specifically however once the battery was put in, it created a few mm gap.
I initially found the battery to add about 30 min extra however, it began to lose it capacity after a few months then became the same if not worse than the stock.
No NFC, bulge, same battery capacity wasn't worthwhile. I bought from bastexwireless and they were a pain to deal with so if you buy expect to make it a permanent purchase. I tired to contact zerolemon as well and they just gave me the runaround.

I would say the lifespan of holding its charge is pretty similar to the original samsung battery. Under heavy daily use, it would take abt 3 mths I reckon, for it to start losing its capacity bit by bit. It's just the way they are, so I would still get the zerolemon's since they are pretty cheap compared to samsung's. Over here where I live, the original samsung battery is only sold with the extra battery kit, and it costs abt 30usd. I alr got that so it would still be worthwhile for me to ship the zerolemon's over as I don't stay in the US.
Regarding bastex's customer service, I emailed them once regarding their poorly made wall charger. They responded pretty quickly and offered to send me a new one, as well as 2 new batteries since mine had alr bloated up due to months of heavy use. I guess the bloating issue pretty common. So maybe not all their staff provide quality support. [emoji41]
I just got mine this week. This is day 3 of using it. It seems to do a little better, but I'm still in the break-in phase of the battery. I like the extra weight, as it gives the phone a more substantial feel. It fits fine in my otterbox (defender series, I think). Haven't tested it in my seidio obex case yet. I used their battery with my Verizon Galaxy Nexus, and loved it. I expect good things with it.
I just ordered a single battery ($9.XX, with shipping). I didn't need the second battery, or that external battery charger.
Zerolemon's 7.5Ah batteries for Galaxy S4
Zerolemon's 7.5Ah batteries for Galaxy S4, I ordered 3 from e-bay with 2 chargers. The batteries are heavier than the phone and with case is more than twice as thick(deep) as original phone. Width and length are slightly larger too but not appreciably so. Big plus is am never tethered to wall and each battery will last 20+ hours of constant Internet use. Simply swap batteries after running it until <= 2%; one is typically always on charger. Phone with case/battery carries nicely in a LBT Holster.
The zerolemon wall charger is really low quality. It works (charges ur batt from zero to full in abt 4-5 hrs) for the first few weeks, and then takes longer and longer to charge.
Another alternative to never having to charge your phone on the wall is to get the official samsung extra battery kit. That charger is top notch. I got that and use it with my zerolemon's. So I don't need to deal with a huge bulky extended battery either.
It's a small bit bigger than the original battery. It makes putting on your battery cover a little bit more difficult, but not bad. I have a defender case and it makes it just a little tighter.

which one did u get?
Any of those batteries claiming to be high capacity yet OEM sized are probably dangerous (Google cheap lithium batteries) and nowhere near the capacity they claim. If you want to risk your expensive new phone by sticking in some cheap nasty battery that could explode go for it.....
Yes, what Joey2o11 said is correct. A battery that's the same size as the factory battery will have the same, or less, mah as the factory battery. Any company claiming their factory-sized battery has more mah is simply lying so they'll sell more batteries. You can read where many different unaffiliated companies test batteries from manufacturers and 3rd parties, and you'll see the results are always the same. Bottom line - if you want more mah, you'll need a bigger battery.
Also, you made a thread asking the community to share info about batteries. So when you found one to purchase you should have shared your findings with the community, not asked a moderator to close the thread. XDA is all about sharing information with the community, not keeping it to yourself...
Not 100% true as I remember the higher capacity battery for my old Sony Xperia phone lasted longer than the oem battery even though it was stock size.

So no actual solid evidence then other than you seem to remember it lasted longer... If it was possible to make batteries with a higher capacity for the same size do you not think the likes of Sony, Samsung etc would have done it themselves in the first place?

I had the Sony Xperia Play mobile phone, the extended battery was quoted to be only 200mAh higher but made a difference. 6 months on the standard battery versus 6 months on the extended battery I could tell the difference. It was also talked about here on xda when it was the 'in' phone.
I do know that most batteries quoted are not genuinely that much higher or better than stock with the same dimensions but I can say that the statement was incorrect in my opinion from my experience for that one occasion.

That phone was never the "in" phone and anyone who thinks any cheap chinese third party battery is gonna compare to a stock oem battery is delusional. They are expensive for a reason, even after you trim off the excessive markup.
That sums things up nicely
If there was a way for extra mAh to be crammed into the same space, Samsung would've done it themselves. And even if there was a way and some other company made such batteries, the production costs would be through the roof, so the retail price would reflect that.
The best you can expect from a cheap battery is to be on par with the OEM (although unlikely), but it's simply unrealistic to expect it to be better.
Hi Guys,
I've using the N4 for last 2 years here in India and I personally felt it is a great device in terms of build quality, screen size and looks and only downside I can see is the poor screen on time (SOT) or battery backup on stock battery.
Now my battery has almost died and need to replace it. While searching on AliExpress, there is a 3200 mAh capacity battery available for Nexus 4, though there is no review available. Though I can buy the original battery from eBay or ALiexpress, this high capacity battery looks very tempting to me.
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-...attery-for-LG-E960-E975-E973/32306624153.html
Can you guys take a look and suggest me if it is okay yo go ahead with this one or I should stick with original battery capacity of 2100 mAh.
Your suggestion would be highly appreciated, and thanks in advance.
I've been thinking lately to replace mine too..
You should give it a.go and tell us results! It's a shame I can't order from aliexpress.
I doubt that you will be able to get a replacement battery (li-ion) that has the same physical dimensions, higher capacity and a lower price.
When things sounds to good to be true, it often is
I think you'll get a cheap battery with - at best - the same capacity as an original battery.
I would go for an original battery.

You can't squeeze more capacity into the same volume - that said, there are some battery manufacturers who can get an extra 10% or so. I remember buying one from a very reputable company in Switzerland several years ago for a phone, but I can't recall their name
So either them, if you can track them down, or an original battery. Stay away from batteries which promise enormous amounts of mah, or are just very cheap. The original is not a bad option since realistically the phone has a remaining life of a couple of years max.
Another very good option is to buy an external pack. For example a 5000mah pack occupies the same volume and weighs the same as a phone, and will provide plenty of spare capacity without adding weight or bulk to the phone (unless when you are using it, otherwise it can sit in a bag). NewTrent is a good brand, as is Xiaomi, good offers on Amazon.
(I got myself a Xiaomi 10,000mah battery pack which is technically really good but just too heavy and bulky)
That's fake, it's still 2100mAh, you can't squeeze more mAh from same size.
Thanks all for your helpful suggestion.
However I used a mobile long back from Nokia where I used a replacement battery from Nokia itself with same dimension but it used to provide extra battery backup. So my wild guess is technically it is possible to get 2500mah probably. If that is the case then also enough for my current 2yrs old battery is giving me around 2-2.5hrs of battery backup and don't want to plugin the power bank in my mobile (though I've xiaomi one in my home)
Another vote for "physics > spiel". You simply cannot get more mAH from the same dimensions. For the fella above who says he got more out of a replacement Nokia, it's entirely possible that the improvement in battery life was merely down to the age of the battery, as in, the one he was used to was tired and running out of charge cycles.
You can squeeze a little more power in the cell , these come highly recommended but not cheap.

Don't forget that it is possible for manufacturers to stack batteries and make them bigger (thicker). Nexus 4's non-removable back (glass!), fragile design make this impossible. I remember seeing a 6200mAh battery for my old Note 2, but you needed to use a custom back cover because of the added thickness. But the point is battery capacity is limited by it's density, so the only way to make a larger capacity battery is to make it bigger. Until we get some new battery technology with different density like graphite or whatever.
