Could you theoretically connect/solder a li ion battery pack on a xperia x10?
Are does anyone have some good informations about how cellphone battery's work?
Is it also possible to connect 2 cellphone battery's to on top off eachother and make a parallel connection?
Probably possible, but why would you want to?
Longer battery life i can customize the backcover also.
Mugen power batt are 2 expensive.
Did anyone ever tried connecting 2 batt with succes.

Everything is possible in theory my friend, but lets just leave this one at just that, theory.

Everything just points to carrying a spare - that way you don't cannibalise anything, and you can either choose to stickytape it to the back of the phone for that extra-bulky feeling you're after, or put it in a bag/other pocket when you're wearing them tight jeans...
Or you could just get one of these:

$17.50 shipped gets you the battery, new cover, and a screen protector. Took about 2 weeks to get here from Singapore, but I love it.
There's tutorial about making such battery. Simply, connect two batteries in parallel: + on +, - on -, and don't connect middle terminals, these are for battery temperature. Stick batteries together and you're done!

If you sand it down nicely and use some spraypaint it wouldn't even look homemade.

Very true.. but the cell is alot fatter..
Wiring up 2 batteries to the same battery cache is problematic..
If i'm correct the x10 reads the amount of mA passed to the phone and uses the "rated amperage as a baseline"
Meaning that your modded battery might never make the bar..
Also battery burns hurt.. ask those poor bastards with psp 1000's that had to cut open the cell casing to hack their psp.
Correct me if i'm wrong.

Okz lol i don't have that much knowledge about battery's but thanx 4 the straight answer.
How much more battery life do you think you could get out of your x10 with your extended battery?
Well most extended batteries they try to double the capacity.
But connecting 2 batteries in parallel will work.. but can go wrong very fast.
if one of the 2 builds up a memory it may lead to severe heat and maybe even the dreaded gas purge "the battery start to leak a gas" followed by a loud pain inducing bang.
Go safe.. buy the battery.
I just don't like the look of the build quality of the last link, but it should give you alot more life.

No - don't connect them because it would double the REPORTED temperature. That means, if batteries are 27°C warm, OS would see it as 54°C.
wait a minute if a remember rightly the type of bettery used in this is a bizarre, from what i read they cant trickle charge. thats why they go from 100 to 91% and then back up if theyre left plugged in

Hello guys,
I purchased one of these and so far so good. I'm running an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II- with "ICScrewD Red Edition UCKH7" Rom
The battery is able to charge while the device is operational without boot loops.
After the first charge I ran cpu/memory/gpu stress tests serveral times during the day, kept BT, WI-FI and GPS on while on the road, streamed music, watch videos, set display to max and time out to 2 minutes to expedite discharge basically above normal use.. The baterry lasted 20 hours under those conditions.
After a second full charge the cellphone have been running on battery for 28 hours with almost 4 hours of display time and is showing 56% battery charge left.
The back cover fits perfectly. The only thing I would like to find is a travel charger for it. I bought a GTMAX charger but the battery does not fit in it. I can only charge regular size batteries on the travel charger.
Hope this helps others looking for an extended battery.

3600mah?! that's intense. Would you mind posting up a few picks to compare the thickness of the phone with that on vs Stock? Thanks
No problem. Will do once at home a little later.
Don't know if I want to trust another battery from Qcell as far as what capacity they rate it.
Bought a supposed 1950 mah battery through them and it turns out that it's really only 1650 mah. While the battery performance is on par with stock which is fine, if you buy it under the pretense that it'll get you better battery life, stay away.

When I look at those pictures, all I see is this
Are you going to get some sort of bumper or case to go along with that? I'm interested to see if the battery door/cover from other 3000+mAh batteries would work with this one - like the one from the GT Max.
I'm going to use the SGP Neo Ex with the battery. I tried the tpu case for extended battery packs but it didn't fit. The back cover of the gtmax didn't fit my phone correctly.

nice bat. What about the first uses? should you discharged full and then charged till 100%? or you should use it normally till like 40% and then recharged full? (40% to don't degrade the battery life)

yea im going to the lake on thurday and could use it but i dont think it will make it here in time lol
oh tempting =o
[edit] gah darn you hehe =p
ended up getting me to buy it XD
I figure, hmm... if there's ever a time we're(family/friends) not by an outlet for a couple of a days $20 battery would come in handy
which is unusual for this date and time so I wasn't sure. such a borderline impulse buy
This is nice for emergencies. Good buy for $20. Although I don't need it for day-to-day use. By the time I go to ebd and plug my phone in I'm still at 25-35% most of the time.
My thought is, sure you don't need it daily. Maybe for emergencies... but you have to carry it with you everywhere for emergencies, then you need to wait for your phone to charge. I would rather carry a spare battery that is already fully charged.
You can use that to charge other things also, but then again, you have to wait for it to charge. Pretty much everywhere you travel will have an outlet.
But $20... whatever, no use thinking about it too long. My .02 would be carry a already charged spare battery for emergencies.

Kmashi 9600 mAh external battery
i got this battery and have been using it for more than a month now
http://www.ebay.com/itm/for-HTC-Ama...US_Rechargeable_Batteries&hash=item4ab8058874
if that link dies you can search ebay for "kmashi 9600"
ive seen prices for the same model vary from $25 to $45 on ebay
its a 9600 mah battery. they also make a 11,200 mah version. kmashi seems to be a chinese company that makes batteries.
its not heavy, its just a little bit bigger than the rezound, and it comes with 10 adapters to charge other devices.
somehow, within 2 weeks, i was able to bend a pin in the micro usb adapter, rendering it useless. so i just charge my phone using the micro usb cable that the rezound came with
im on airplanes a lot and walk around a whole lot (walking around new york, biking, for hours at a time) and i love the battery. if i have my phone plugged into it, and the phone is at 14% or less and im playing GTA III, the phone will yell at me and say that the current from the power source is not enough to charge at the rate its being consumed. other than that, its been great
i dont mean to be rude but how is carrying around two regular devices better than carrying one slightly larger item...it seems kinda redundant to carry a battery to charge another battery, should we also carry a third battery to charge the second battery

As far I know, it's quite the opposite. Li-ion batteries do not have "memory effect". In fact, letting the battery fully discharge wastes a life cycle. However, it is advisable after 20/30 charges, to perform fully discharge/charge to re-calibrate the measurements. Some says that if battery stays between 40% and 60% of charge is the ideal (due to factors such as temperature, etc.).
I don't know if to keep changing batteries may affect the pins. But as long you keep using the batteries regularly its fine. Just don't let your batteries unused for a long time.
Thanks both, but if you were to buy one which would you choose?

I don't trust 3rd party battery manufacturers anymore. I bought a couple Hyperion batteries with my Note. The batteries were supposed to be 2600 mah but it turns out they were really 1500. I have also had this same problem with another manufacturer that everyone said was good. I don't trust them anymore. I bought a genuine Samsung battery. One other thing to note, if you want to use NFC, you will need the Samsung battery.

I found out because several people on various boards pulled the original label on the battery and saw the real mah size. This seems to be a problem with a lot of 3rd party batteries. You really do get what you pay for. The battery did work but did not last anywhere as long as the original. I also do not believe the batteries harmed my phone in any way.
Well you got 2 pcs of that hyperion batt right? so that makes equals to 1 good battery lol
I've also gave up hope on 3rd party batteries after a lot of testing and analysing with a real battery analyzer. For example, the genuine cell in a SGN specified to 1750mAh measured 1690mAh which is well within margins. The same for genuine Nokia cells. A well known 3rd party battery manufacturer has this "super mega xl" cell specified to x000mAh but turned out just at x300mAh which is really bad. The internal resistance also appears to be worse on most 3rd party cells.

Just an FYI.* I finally got the battery, touch slow for postage. Took about 3 weeks.
Anyway build quality on first impressions seems good, nice finish.*
Doesn’t have a strong click but nevertheless does connect the phone nice and secure.
I got the cover without a front flip section.
I used to have a galaxy so this phone is heavier by comparison but I’m used to the extra weight now however have to admit, this does make it a fair bit heavier.
Button on the case for charging is easy to use.
My drawback is the website clearly says data support is available but when I checked with the seller, they confirmed this isn’t the case and will be amending the website shortly.
If you can get passed the weight issue and increased bulkiness its overall pretty good just without data sync
Sent from my Z2
@Haldi4803
I have tested the battery, over all I concur that it is built well for the price (I got it for ~$20). However there are a few issues:
- The real battery capacity is approximately 75-80% of the Z2's battery. It charges the Z2 to about 80% total from full to empty so the capacity is more like 2600 mAh.
- The input and output currents are lower than what the Z2 can charge. It can charge at 0.8A and discharge at 1A which is not terrible but does take significantly more time (50% longer) compared to charging the Z2 normally.
I'm happy with the purchase due to the convenience of being able to charge the phone untethered whenever I want to prolong the built-in battery life. Usually I snap the battery in when I need to charge and take it off to charge it separately afterwards.
thx for the answers.
that seems logical you cant charge a 3000mAh battery with another 3000mAh to 100%, you will lose something inbetween.
Lucky i don't really use my phone much, so i get 3-4 days with low usage and the normal battery ^^
I'm extremely happy with my purchase price. I complained because their site clearly says data sync supported but it's not. They offered 30%. I advised still nothappy because site misleading so they gave me full refund and let me keep the product so for free it's fantastic lol.

Hello, what about charging this case?
On brando.com ist that you must charge case and phone separately.
On some Chinese pages is that you can charge case connected to phone - phone will be charge first and than case.
Got the 4500mAh version now, why? Because it's supposed to charge the device at 1A

The case has a button so whilst your phone may always be connected it doesnt mean its using the case power so it never charges both at the same time. When you connect the charge cable to the case it will charge the case if its turned on or charge the phone when the case is turned off
I've seen reference to a couple different batteries that should fit/work, for those looking to replace the battery for one reason or another and figured I'd consolidate things here...
http://planetfon.ru/akkumuljator-li-pol---3-7v--5000mah_l238
http://www.allbatteries.co.uk/tablet-battery-3-8v-5100mah-tml90080.html
The challenge being for some that neither of those will ship to the US (no one will internationally probably, because of our lipo shipping restrictions).
Anyone found a supplier in the states with something similar?
My main worry would be: how do we know that the replacement battery we buy from some obscure online store is any safer than the original faulty battery?

Here are some options too!

Ain't that battery got a bit too low voltage? The original battery is a 3.9v, but the one he shows is a 3.7v

0.2V isn't a significant difference for a whole battery pack - tolerances can easily lead to the same difference (+ or -).
FYI, the official replacement B01 battery is rated at 3.8V.

That is not how these batteries work all lipo are 3.7v unless they have multiple cells in series then the voltage goes up in increments of 3.7
Also it should be known that a fully charged lipo will read 4.2v and a discharged will read 3-3.3v
The fire hazard with these is likely 2-fold 1 the charge and protection circuit has a flaw that allows the battery beyond a threshold either voltage or temp paired with a bad cell this had a bad habit of catastrophic failures. This is likely why nvidia opted to brick tablets rather than open them and swap the batteries and resell them as refurbished.
Btw that is what I would have done everyone got a k1 style tablet where the package had nothing but the new tablet inside was a return label and the procedure would have been factory reset tablet then package just the tablet no stylus no accessories. As the tablet you would get would be in a similar state... except the stylus slot might have a rubber plug...
Alright.
But has anyone tried a third party battery by now without any issues? For example the aliexpress one? Cause my old shield tablet is still off and awaiting a new battery and a kernel change because the tablet initially awaits the kernel killer to kill off the old one.

Well that depends what you call issues there are several in this thread that reported that the battery did not last as long that is not really what I would call an issue as the original battery was 5200mAh they put a 4250 in or even a 4000 that should last less it is an expected result...
But that said my previous post was a warning against this as the faulty bits might be part of the charging and protection circuit on the battery. Particularly the control chip that runs the sensors and the charging regulator.
Anyone do this yet I bought a LTE model and the battery is seriously eroded.

My post right above yours I did the reading for you the people using the Nexus 7 4250 mAh cell reported that it worked but with an expectedly shorter run time. As loosing about 1000 mAh is a noticeable drop.

Interesting well I found a few batteries that have 5000mah. Not sure if they would work.

In theory you could replace the pack with a bank of 14500 cells. As long as it was a 1s?p arrangement it means 1 series any number in parallel series is voltage and parallel would be capacity and amperage.
The procedure given to replace the battery packs in these tablets involves removing the charging/protection from the original pack and soldering the new pack to the old batteries solder points. So any bare lithium ion pack that is 1s?p configuration should work if it fits. 3.5mm 64 mm 150 mm is the 3 measurements for the OEM pack
