[Q] X10 Mini Battery Replacement Question - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi,
I know that the battery on the x10 mini is hardwired to the system but I'm thinking of taking apart my x10mini and adding in another battery because 900 mAH is simply too low for a battery. Is there a battery replacement for this? If not, what I think I will do is that I will install the stock android 2.1 on it and since it's still in warranty, I'll take it to the sony ericsson x10 mini and get it replaced.
Thanks.

Did you find any alternative yet?

Using another battery

Hi guys:
Is it possible to use a battery from another phone? Because sometimes chinese mobiles can be compatible with Nokia's batteries and for a little amount of money, we can get some cooler Nokia's ones.
I'm getting a ZTE Blade this week, so I will tell you my impressions ASAP.
Regards.
I wouldn't recommend using any other battery than the official one provided. You're asking for trouble otherwise.
Why not? If it has the same voltage and fits perfect, there isnt any reason for using this battery. There are other manufacturers of mobile phone batteries that make compatible batteries, so It wouldnt have any problem.
Anyone tried it? I will make a study of MP batteries and then I will tell you if I found something interesting.
Regards
why would you do that when a new oem battery is so affordable?

More capacity power than the stock one. Finally, I have bought an emergency charger for 10 euros, that have 1900 mah and its affordable for my Samsung Wave and this phone.
Hope that it will solve all battery problems.

Interested aswell in the review,was considering carrying a spare battery but this looks handier.
I considered using another battery too, but this option has multilple advantages:
1) It has 1900 mhAmp, so it lefts 500 mAmphs free to make another charge.
2) I'm using two smartphones, so I can charge both ones.
3) I don't need another charger or charging it in the phone and removing it. I just charge the emergency charger and I can use the phone again.
BTW, my ZTE Blade seems to be the AMOLED version, with low battery consumption. I'm using stock GB firmware, and after a day using 2G network, WiFi, playing Angry Birds for 30 minutes, using Whatsapp and a few phone calls, I have 30% left. SO I'm quite impressed with battery life, hope it will be as good as my Samsung Wave (I use it around 2-3 days with no problems)
I will make a full review when I will receive the charger.
Regards.
I bought the 2800mAh version of that charger, and man does it work great.
I suppose it's the only must have accessory I can think of to a smartphone.

[Q] Which replacement battery to buy?

my battery last about 8hrs with barely no use. with average whatsapp and email i'd be lucky to get 3-4hrs. I've already tried every trick listed in the forum to extend batt life. it turns off randomly under heavy use (camera or video playback, games, etc). those things work when its on the charger.
I've decided to replace the battery and my back cover that doesn't seat properly anymore. i wanted to know if anyone have purchased the extend battery; and that back cover looks alot bigger than the original.
is it worth it? amazon.com item # B002MPY4BW
or should i just buy the standard replacement battery? amazon item # B001IF277K
what BST is the battery and what is the v.??

The original battery is too small.
They may have been built in a SE factory but the current rating is too low for the x10's demands.
SE would have solved many problems by just using a larger cell.
The x10 sometimes requests more current that what those poor cells could supply.
Due to a overly hungry GSM 3G radio.

Yes, that makes sense, but is there any sort of guarantee that these no-name batteries use actually larger cells and produce higher rating?
All I'm saying is I am a bit reluctant to trust cheap so-called extended batteries.
i think the original batteries are weak too. don't even have 3G here. at first it lasted a full day with just music, texting and calls. once i added data it dropped more than half.
know whats odd tho.. at home on wifi i get longer battery life. i think it has something to do with this mobile data service.
quick update.. got the new battery.. went with the original so far 21hrs and i'm at 13% batt life. i'm happy rite now. i kno thats gonna go down a bit once my provider remove that blackberry data plan(had to use a BB for 2 weeks) and have my regular data working again.

does it make the battery last more ?? or it is a fake ??
i will buy x10 this month but it is used ,, so i want to know if there a test to know either the battery works good or not ??
Hello, I tried something like that, but took it off fast because it made my phone bulky and ugly. However, it does last longer, about 170%-180% I used it only when i knew I'll stay away from power sources for a while.
And the one i used got hotter than the stock one.

and what is about gold 2430 mAh ?? it is the same size of the stock one and larger
and does the heat produce from it harm the mobile ??
thnx for ur reply
I never used the gold 2430, it seems to have 95%+ positive feedback on sites, and it seems to be identical in size with the original battery. I would've probably gone for that one if it was available.
The heat doesn't harm your mobile as it's not that hot, but it affects the battery life on long run. It didn't matter to me because i didn't use it as my main battery, but I think, when used as a main battery it will be very long until it will last noticeably less.
I would go for the gold 2430 because it can fit in the original case, and you can carry the original battery if you need it, without the need of a second back cover.
Good luck!

Shutting down at 45% charge

My phone keep shutting down when charged at 45%.
It refuses to start up again (or just starts up and then shuts down).
I have Googled it and so many answers come up.
Should I just "splash out" on a new battery or is it something more serious?
I have had the phone for just under 18 months.
It gets heavily used because it is for development too. So it is plugged in to my computer a very large amount of the time.
I noticed that someone mentioned about it getting hot.
How hot is hot? Mine does get warm a bit.
I have it in a leather case that is open on the sides but closed front and back and I am wondering whether it could have overheated and caused damage.
Looks like this: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41DdBaqlfLL.jpg
A bit warm is not hot..does it charge to 100% after you reboot and continue charging?you could try calibrating your battery with some calibration app
Send from beneath my cloak of magic
I think that problem is in battery overheating. Somethimes when battery is hotter than 50 C ur phone just freeze itself and do a reboot. Try to play some hd games when u charging ur phone and ur phone will probably do a reboot. Is it overclocked?

Yeah. It seems to have no problem charging up again.
I installed DX Toolbox. It has a battery-charge screen. You can follow the charge process as it move from fast-charge -> cycle-charge -> trickle-charge.
Shows it is ok and fully charged and it still tends to shutdown when it reaches 45% or so.
I have been charging mostly from my computer since it is connected there most of the day. Also, I lost my original charger. I do have another non-SE charger (Samsung) at work that I use sometimes. It charges with no problems.
However, the problems started long before I used the other charger.

I'll keep an eye on the temp to see if it is getting to 50 C.
My clock is not overclocked and I am using the stock ROM 2.3.3.
I would be ok moving to another ROM if that would solve the problem - although I would probably lose my Hebrew.
I should add the fact that it doesn't always happen.
For example, I am not at 33% and still "alive".
Will probably die if I start Angry Birds.
LOL - Shoulda shut up.
Just after I typed this it shut down. Without anything extra running.
Try another kernel, like zKernel for stock 2.3.3 (locked bl).

If its an original LiPo battery, def. get a new Li-Ion one. I had similar issue and got a new genuine LiIon battery for X1 (same model number BST-41 i think from memory?), fixed it right up.

Well I guess my one is just an extremely good quality copy then. It came in retail packaging, the hologram sticker thing looked perfect, it looks just like original BST-41 but says Li-Ion instead of Li-Polymer. It was $40 on eBay Australia.
I thought it might be a copy (not genuine) but it works VERY well. So I'm happy either way. It was listed as "*Genuine* Replacement Battery for Sony Ericsson X1 (BST-41)" or something.
Can u give me a link? Is temp lower than a stock LiPo battery?

I checked Fast Recharge app while updating some Market apps for the past ten minutes and it said 27 degrees C. I don't know how hot it gets while charging, I'll check tonight if you want. It also says the battery type is a Li-Poly, so I don't really know if it is a Li-Ion - it just says so.
The original seller of the battery doesn't have the item listed anymore and google cache won't show the original eBay page either I have spent the past ten minutes trying to find a "genuine-looking" BST-41 but they all say Li-Polymer. This is really weird. I have searched for all the numbers and still found nothing on any site in any country.
OK, I've found one close match but it's alibaba (wholesale from china) so you probably can't get it unless you're willing to buy a batch =\
http://wincent-do.en.alibaba.com/pr...BST_41_li_ion_polymer_1500_mAh_wholesale.html
I found it by googling for (with the double quotes intact):
"BST-41" Genuine "Li-Ion" Retail
...maybe you will have better luck. I noticed the Xperia Play also uses the BST-41.
Sorry I can't help more. I compared my battery to the Fake Vs. Pro thread here with the nice high-res photo's, and this Li-Ion has a perfect hologram. Anyway, I have added photo's of the battery in that thread - see my post here.

Battery overheating PLEASE HELP!

hey
i am using rooted sony ericsson wt19i last mouth i bought battery from ebay the brand of the battery is KINPS and capacitive is 2200mAh with using this battery phone is repeatedly reboots i saw in the hidden menu that battery temperature is between 60C-55C i dont belive that that battery in the first seconds got this temperature and its heat like the original one no difference i heard its because phone protection can i change that?.
what i would do?
thanks and sorry about my bad english.
Well you said your battery has 2200 mAh. Im looking right now my wt19 original battery and it says it's just 1200 mAh so there u got one reason why your battery is overheating. More energy = more heat. My phone just got to like 45 C° if im charging it while hard-using it at the same time but 55-60? the phone seriously has a hard time recognizing and adapting to the new "fake" battery. If problem keeps try to get a new original battery i don't know how much problems at future can bring using a higher voltage battery
