Just ordered this through Amazon.com. Anyone have any experience with this brand of battery? There weren't many reviews for this specific battery. Their other batteries had decent reviews. If nothing else I suppose it doesn't hurt to have a spare lol. I'll share my experience once I've had a chance to try it out.
usually non oem batteries are fraud but try it out and see if it works the way it says.
if it doesn't it would make a cool backup battery ill guess
edit: ill order it as well
Does it need a different back?

It says
-No extended battery door is required
Hopefully as they become available we can start testing aftermarket batteries like was done on the N1 ( and likely other phones )
I know myself and many others would love to have a legit 1800mah that fits the factory case
{Edit} just read the only review. seems to last about an hour longer. while that isnt much for the price and the fact it fits the case I think thats worth it.

I'm staying away... Check out the reviews on this link.. they are all by people who have either: 1 review (only on this product) or they have multiple reviews, all on the same brand battery......... It's a scam.
Lol yea i noticed. That i didn't. End up buying

Their other batteries had decent reviews because their employees are inflating the #s. I just did a review of the reviews... There is 1 person that reviewed 3 prodicell batteries on the same day, for 3 different phones... all 5 star reviews.
Then, you read the 1-2-3 star reviews... Those are normal people... with normal reviews... who are all getting boned.

Lol we'll find out soon enough. I'm a bit skeptical as I've gotten screwed with generic batteries before, but even if it doesn't perform quite as well as advertised, it sounds like it'll serve its purpose as a spare.

There's another thread about this battery in the Accessories section of the forum. Here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1096164
I just got my battery yesterday and I'll talk more about how it's working after I've used it for a few days. I'll be posting in that other thread, though, as there's no need for 2 threads about this battery's performance. It makes more sense to have it in the Accessories section anyway.
I would buy these before the one you posted.

I've bought his batteries before for my Inc. from htc express and I know they are legit.
I got an extended battery from Amazon for my g2. It bricked 2 of my phones after getting a slight bit hot. Just some food for thought.

I have used HTCExpress (Chichitec) on my Dinc and then modified it to work on the G2. I'd pick up this one over any aftermarket anyday.
Apparently this is pretty new, it's not even on htcexpress yet.
If OEMs have trouble producing or procuring a battery that lasts, what makes anyone confident that third party/aftermarket companies will do a better job and for cheaper to boot? Yeah right

I have both and the andida just isn't as good as the extended battery from Samsung. I've seasoned it like the instructions say and it just doesn't last nearly as long. It's only been a week and I'm still testing it.

Agreed, it's only a tiny little bit better or if any better than the original battery.
I ordered 2 of these and a stand alone charger off Amazon for $30. Hope I didn't waste my money! Will know when I get back home in a week and get to test them out.
Does anyone that has had luck with them have any suggestions for how to "break them in", I think the instructions show to cycle them 5 times before use?
After receiving and using an Andida for about a week I was pretty disappointed. Its about the same as the stock. Nexus Extended is better.
I have the Andida battery and I feel that it does give me 2-3 hours more on a charge. No hard facts, just my impression from using it for about a week.
My experience, it gave me about 2-3 hours like what others said. I usually got 10-13 hours. I'm personally using the Qcell 3850 mah battery now, 24+ hours

its pretty basic but make sure you are using offiicial htc batteries.. i bought mine used and as soon as I replaced the crap third party battery with an official htc battery the battery improved a ton
I agree, go with a htc oem battery. A lot of these after market ones aren't living up to the levels there advertising.

Not good on Fepuisi, its only lasting 3 hours with little data use and calls.
However it could have to do with ocing. Overclocked to MAX 1401 and MIN 768, saw a little difference in battery. However can't seem to choose the smartass v2 governor. Its just not in the list of governors in Set Cpu.
Any help/recommended CPU speeds would be appreciated.

I bought a couple of "gold" batteries. Complete with bad grammar and indecipherable phrases printed on the packaging, it claims 2450 mAh. Using it for a few weeks now, the battery itself is legit. 2450? Probably not, but more power than the factory battery EVER provided.
It also doesn't get NEARLY as HOT as the factory battery, no matter what I do with the phone. Stays nice and cool. The only thing that worried me about non-factory batteries is the warnings everyone gives about catching on fire. I figure that heat = fire, so this, being COOLER than factory, should be LESS likely to catch on fire.

Nah its okay. I got my Fepuisi one from ebay for about a tenner. So far it works good, no heating problems or anything. However it does push the battery door out a little, but not too much to break it.

Don't like the look of that, far too bulky, would rather just carry a spare battery in my pocket.

i use it regular especially if going on long journeys the problem is the price of the covers.
i wont pay over £10 for a phone cover nevermind the stupid prices they are going for on ebay.

Im in your position aswell, my advice is to wait for zerolemon to release one. If your unaware of the company google them. They made a 2300mah for the galaxy s3 which I bought and it gave me on aversge 6 hours screetime as appose to 4 on the stock. And it fitted in the original back cover. Im guessing theyll make on for the s4 with 2800 mah..but dont be fooled they last way more than 200mah extra would suggest...u'll also get 2 batteries with a battery charger all for under $30...

let's me know how it fit :good:
Just saying, those 3300 mAH ebay batteries aren't actually 3300 mAH. I would say 2200-2500. Right now the only one that makes sense is the mugen one and it's insanely expensive, so consider waiting a little more or buying the BIG ASS battery by anker (5200 mAH with the special cover)
