[Q] Looking for a higher density battery. - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Considering the fact that my x10 now completely redeemed itself.
I figured getting a nice fat battery would just completely make my day.
Are there any?

Stock battery is 1500mAH so:
1800mAH battery,
LINK
or 3600mAH battery (Makes your phone fatter)

so is this worth it? does this make the phone fatter? (i dun mind bout the weight)
1800mAH battery

[Q] Extended Battery - accurate android percentage and discharge?

I am using Hastarins 7.6 kernel with ext batt support and Froyostones 3.2 build (Most recent as of Oct 23)
I have done some extensive research, although, i have not yet figured out a way to get an accurate reading, in android, of my extended battery (life percentage)
I have calibrated my battery (charged to 100% w/ phone on, shut off phone and charged until green light, then booted android, then turned off and charged again until green, then turned on and booted android) only to find out that the battery discharges at the same rate as with the original battery all the way down to 0%.... but does not recognize that the battery holds twice as much power. so really, the 100% battery drains to 0% on extended battery but does not recognize that the battery still holds 50% of its power left
i have never deleted my "batterystats.bin" Because i can't find the file anywhere using a root explorer and even recovery, although, i was told that this step is not necessary in calibration.
I have current widget and my draw is around 60mA on standby with BOTH original and extended batteries but It seems the android OS cannot get accurate readings on the extended battery? It cannot multiply the battery meter by 2 so that the drainage is reciprocal to the larger battery, thus resulting in a slower drain (like 10%/hour drain with original battery would equal 5%/hour drain on extended) ?
correct me if i'm wrong somebody please, or am i missing a step (besides deleting the batterstats.bin which i cannot find out how to do even after downloading recovery)
anyone have any information on this ratio?? battery percentage reading and the extended battery? will they ever be compatible for correct readings??
i've got the same problem with a cameron sino 2400 mah battery, but not only on android! i also got the problem on windows mobile (on every radio and rom version).
after removing the battery out of the device, it will show the right percentage of the remaining batterypower, but the batteryindicator is still falling in the speed of the normal battery.
i couldn't find any solution yet, but maybe it's a battery internal problem of the chip inside the battery.
it looks like the device is reloading the battery-chip-data only when plugging in the battery.
can you tell me, if your battery also is a cameron sino battery? or is it an original?
have you recallibrate your battery? Let it drain till 0%, and keep try to turn device on until totally no vibrate, then charge to 100% after 100% turn phone off and charge till green light, unplug and charge with phone off for a few times.
i already calibrated mine many times, but no change in the result.
i have read from anywhere else in the internet, that most people got that problem with chinese extended batterys.
one of that guys ordered a 2300mah extended battery from the manufacturer leicke - looks like it is maybe the same as the original one and he said, the new battery dont have the problem anymore and is working correct.
i ordered the same battery yesterday (for 21,- euro) and i will test it myself. i think the problem is the chip inside the chinese batterys, that will tell the device its a small one.
by the way, my cameron sino 2400mah battery is made of two small batterys that are linked.
i disassembled it!
Thats guy is me ^^ . But I i really dont see the big different between extended and the original . Must i really do the "recalibrate thing " ?

update: now i've got the leicke 2300mah battery with backcover and metal kickstand.
cover is fitting 100% and all looks and feels like its made of high quality.
the batterydraining ist detected correct and i dont have to remove the battery to see the current chargelevel.
the problem was that chinese crappy battery!
only one thing for androidusers: because of the most kernels don't support the extended batterys (temperature is reportet wrong and android is shutting down after booting), you need to change to a kernel like hastarin 7.7 or 7.8 that is supporting the extended batterys.
overclocking of the hastarin linux kernel work with overclock-apps, so there is no need for an overclocked kernel.
i'm very happy with that battery and it cost only 21 euro over amazon in germany.
i will never get a cheap chinese battery again
So, is it correct that batteries have some kind of chip in them?
yes, they do contain microcontroller
cheap chinese ripoffs often are just badly designed, made from low-cost cells and are very dangerous to use
So don't be surprised if your 'OEM' seico, chinapower, mugen, or whatever name doesn't hold promised charge or even work as original battery

[Q] Maximum charges of batteries bh6x and bh5x

Hello guys
Do you know what is the máximum charge for the bh6x and the bh5x
I wonder if for the bh6x is 4200mV, i'm having a several battery drain and i want to make sure that the battery is in good shape
bh5x is the one that came with my phone and i'm not sure of it's maximum capacity too.
I recently replaced my battery with the same one that came with the phone. Found a relatively cheap OEM on eBay, and I charge it every day (sometimes twice on days with really heavy usage).
IDK the maximum charges, but you can kinda tell when a battery isn't as strong as it once was when it came with the phone.
Then again this is EXACTLY why I want removable batteries on my cell phones and absolutely HATE integrated battery cell phones... (IDC how "cool" the phone looks)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I have both of those and the maximum charge i get on the bh6x is 4200 and the bh5x is 4174
Hope that helps

Thanks. i found out that both charges uo to 4200 but everything depends on the power per hour they can deliver
Thankyou

[Q] Xperia mini pro battery

hello,
i have sony ericson xperia mini pro sk17i. i have a very general question. i know it is stupid but i have read so many contradicting views that i thought i woulh post it here.
SK17i has Li-poly battery i guess (i am not sure) . what is the correct way to recharge the battery so that i can get maximum recharge cycles?
Upto what level should i discharge the battery so as to get maximum battery recharge cycles???what should be the charging procedure??
Nothing of this has been confirmed as 100% accurate.
First time charge 12 hours.
Everything else is questionable at best. Li-ion/poly batteries do not suffer from memory loss. It doesn't matter if you recharge them at 40% or 4%. You will brake Lithium battery only if you rupture a cell thus losing part of its capacity. And you can't prevent that or intentionally invoke it. So when someone says batteries lose some of their capacity over the years, they really mean, some of the cells die. Only thing you can do is get quality original battery and hope for the best. If you put cheap Chinese counterfeit battery, its cells will usually last much shorter then the OEM one.

Battery calibration.

Hi, I was asking myself if it was possible to copy batterystats.bin from a calibrated x10i to have our own x10i calibrated.
I explain : I see that file like a file with values that have the percentage of the battery with the duration and stuff like that, so copying it to have the right values.
Can work or not ? influenced by kernel or rom ? What do you think ?
Li-Ion batteries just need a good charge for approx 8-12hrs when new and first installed and having this process repeated for at least 4-5 charges.
The phone doesn't allow the battery to over change and cuts out and then starts changing again once the charge drops to a chargeable threshold.
This allows the battery to achieve it's maximum charge.
Li-Ion batteries should never be drained or allowed to run flat and should be charged regularly.
If you completely discharge a lithium-ion battery, it is ruined.
Li-Ion battery life is between 2-3 years.
I would let the battery sort itself out as all the battery status is based on the battery itself.
If the battery is old and on it's last legs, it'll have less charge than a newer battery.
P.S. If you plan to keep and use the XPERIA X10i for some time, it's well worth buying a Mugen Power 1800mAh battery.

how does that answer to my question ? Do they sell new x10i ? meh

3900 MAH slim battery?

So I see that they make a G3 slim battery that does 3900 MAH.
This one is a 3850
and this one is the 3900
I've been wanting an extended battery but dont want to mess with the form factor and have and ungly back, anyone know if this is a good battery?
I never trust slim bigger MAH

It is just a lie.
Until new technologies arrive (and we will hear about it, trust me), the capacity of a battery is directly proportional to its size. If the battery has a similar size, then it will last for the same time, regardless of the label or how you measure capacity...
I've tested for years a ZeroLemon slim battery for my Galaxy S4 that was supposed to be higher capacity (going back and forth between this one and the official battery), and they were exactly the same.
And I wouldn't trust any brand you can find on eBay or Amazon marketplace, unless you want to risk some explosion in your pants
There are a couple of ways to get additional capacity out of a battery the same physical size, all of them bad. You can make the insulating layer between cells thinner, allowing for more of the battery to contain chemistry to generate power. At the risk of leakage and fire.
The other way is to play with the circuitry in the battery that reports charge levels to the phone. All name-brand Li batteries leave some margin for error, so that when it reports 100% it's not really quite fully charged, and it reports 0% before it's totally drained. It's possible to build a battery without that safety margin, so it will last a bit longer on a charge. But overcharging Li batteries is very bad for battery life, and draining them completely is also bad. So a battery that uses this technique will wear out a lot sooner. If you've ever seen a battery swell, so the sides aren't flat, that's probably a sign of overcharging.
But I think most of these aftermarket batteries don't use either technique, and the capacity claims are just flat out lies.
