I've ordered the non oem "2000mah" battery from ebay... since im in south america it might take a while to reach here, anyone has it? please share your thoughts!
i also buy from ebay this battery, i'm waiting from 2 week, i hope arrived quickly
Same here... I've ordered my 2000ma battery from ebay and I'm still waiting the delivery...
In our italian forum there's already some persons with this battery and from the first information that I've read they've good result.
I'll perform some test once I'll have the new battery
Hi,
I have the 2000mah battery and are very happy with it, but have read some posts from other users that claims that there is no improvement over the original. Not sure exactly how much longer stand by time I get with this battery, but it is a significant improvement from the original battery
Ordered too on 16 January on ebay, but still no arrived..
Battery
It appears to have no more power/longevity over original battery.
To me, the way to stretch battery life is to use a task killer often.
Does anyone know of a charging stand that is available for the Liquid?
I have this battery. I need to test it better but it is worse than original.
I'm going to run a more scientific test today
On the Original Battery, charged to 100%
End All with Advanced Task Manager (cept for some excluded tasks)
Turn on wifi, BT, GPS, brightness on max, using 3G
Media server App on
Swiftp on
Sygic mobile maps turned on
After the phone dies, ill record the time
Then charge up the Extended battery and do the same
So far, cycling the new battery for about a week, it seems to be about the same in capacity as the original
Tests results in
the original lasted pretty much exactly 3.5 hours
the extended lasted 3.5hrs as well
testing charge times now
sigh
have u got the rest of the tests??
mine seems like never arriving!
So really the 200 battery makes no difference?
Dissapointed was thinking of getting one
The thing that seems to drain my battery is the WIFI and web stuff
There is a thing in setup to tell you what has been using the battery but I dont know how accurate it is??
Pete
ok, after a thorough testing, what do you think??
Anybody seen results because it is getting hard to use it with this current battery life

thanks!
I have sign a few posts on the battery from mugen that started that if you want a real change in life that you have to use the 3100mah battery. With out you will see almost 3x the battery life. I'm wanting to try it myself but kinda saving up pennies here and there to buy it.

so amazon has this battery from gtmax 2200mah battery idk if its worth it cause i dont want to buy a battery that will last forever since i just need it to last longer than normal. does anyone have or used tis battery?

Reports that I've seen indicate it is thicker than stock and the back cover won't fit. Maybe you'd be OK if you have a good case so you could do without the back plate, but I don't know. I'm also not sure people have seen any real extended life. Check out the other forums also, there's a lot of interest in extended batteries.
It's been a while since the phone was released but I cannot find any acceptable extended battery solutions still.
I mean 'cmon, mugen power battery (or alike) with the camel hump? Really?
The batteries that fit standard case and claim to be of a higher capacity are mostly always are fake.
Keeping a spare and changing it in the middle of a day is pretty cumbersome.
The only option that's left is to charge it at least twice a day.
So the question is, has someone came across a decent and non-ugly extended battery yet?
Nope
I've scoured the internet for hours looking for a solution like this. Alls i wanted was a 10-20% bump without the extra bulk.
Sadly, nothing. There were some non legit batteries that somebody had used on android forums that were 1900mAh, but sadly this also wasn't the best fit in the phone and ended up busting his battery cover.
Sadly, the answer to your queestion is no. Sorry!
Maybe we might have a 3500mah batt for the rezound!!!!
I have been a little disappointed with the rezound's extended battery and have had good experiences with siedio batteries on the Dinc.
I called siedio and they said that they wont be making an ext batt for the rezound. So in my searches for a battery i came across this
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l2736&_nkw=htc+rezound+batt
It seems that the same batt is used on the Rezound, thunderbolt and the mytouch 4g. I also come to find Seidio makes a 3500mAH batt for the t-bolt.
http://www.seidioonline.com/thunderbolt-innocell-3500-extended-battery-black-p/bacy35htmec-bk.htm
So the question i have is to any previous owners of the t-bolt or the mytouch:
Does the batt from these phones work in the rezound?
and
If yes - does the 3500mAH t-bolt seidio batt fit in the rezound with the rezound extended case. I currently have a call into Seidio's tech supp. hopefully they will give me an answer.
I sure wouldn't mind an extra 750mah on my rezound.
I just got a call back from Seidio tech support.
They told me that the batt works but doesn't register on the batt meter.
He said he actually had it in his hand and was testing it in a Rezound but he didnt have an extended back so i dont know if the verizon one will work.
He also measured the batt and said it is just under 1cm thick.
He said the phone powers up and seems to be working but he doesn't know what the long term performance would be like.
I guess there is electronics in the batt that communicates with the phone to track batt life.
Oh well don't know if i want to take a $70 chance with this.
It would be great if someone out there who has this battery could verify it.
I think I recall people having issues charging TBolt batteries as well. Not speaking from experience though but something to consider.
KORM via the beast known as the Rezound.
Another disappointing thing the Seidio tech told me - that there will be no 3500mah batt for the Rezound.

All batteries or just HTC t-bolt batteries? I mean does that include the Seidio 3500mah batt?
oh no... another one of these threads.
yes, a MyTouch 4G or Thunderbolt battery will work in a Rezound.
you will notice though that the "Wh"(wattage hours) do not match up(Rezound's being higher) so even though the Seidio one is 3500, it'll perform closer to a 3000 in the Rezound.
additionally, since the battery is not intended for the Rezound it has the potentional to do damage to the Rezound.
back in my Galaxy Nexus days, we found we could use Galaxy S II batteries in it. one of the GN users gave it a go for awhile and the SII battery ended up shorting out his device somehow & he had to get it replaced.

Oh yes another -
Problems with one phone/battery combo don't necessarily mean there will be the same problems on another.
Keyword - "potential".
It doesn't hurt to ask as someone out there may have tried it with success.
The Rezound or any phone does not have a WH rating. It has a continuous current rating. I don't know about the ratings of these phones but i would assume that the rezound is higher so, with voltage being ~ equal, the power dissipation would be greater.
The battery rating is not dictated by the phone. The battery WH rating is a function of the current/voltage and the dissipation time of the battery and independent of the device consuming it? So a 3500mah battery will deliver "X" mA's of power but for less time than in a mytouch due to the higher current draw (X) of the rezound.
In other words a 3500mah batt will perform like a 3500mah batt regardless of which phone it was intended to be used on.
Did you every buy a Thunderbolt extended battery and try in your rezound? If so does it fit with the Rezound Extended battery back?
guys i just traded my thunderbolt in for a rezound. like a damn idiot i shipped theTB's 3500 extended battery back to verizon but before i returned it, it lasted the same amount as on my TB. im gonna try and get verizon to ship it back to me because this rezound extended battery isnt as good.

Yes. I have the OEM Thunderbolt extended battery (made by HTC) in my Rezound right now. In fact, I've had it in since I bought the phone on ebay over 2 months ago. The previous owner had the OEM Rezound extended battery and back at one point, but lost the extended battery. So he substituted the battery with the extended battery for the HTC Thunderbolt. It has the exact same capacity and dimensions, but is black instead of red.

I tried my OEM thunderbolt battery in my rezound and it showed the battery indicator grayed out. Didn't show how much battery life I had/had left. And it didn't charge at all.
So I would wait until someone confirms that the seidio tbolt battery works in the rezound before buying.
Just buy the HTC extended battery for your Rezound. It lasts me 12-16 hrs of heavy use.

"heavy use" varies from person to person. for me the HTC extended battery lasts 3 - 4 hours "heavy use".
i'm probably just going to order that mugen 4000mah battery.
It's official, it does NOT work
Based on encouraging info here and in other forums, I decided to try this. I ordered the 3500mah battery for the Thunderbolt made by Seidio from Amazon. It came with the Thunderbolt extended battery back (which you do not need) and the battery, in a clear plastic snap-together case.
The battery does indeed FIT inside the Rezound using the extended battery back that I already had from buying the Rezound extended battery from Verizon. The Rezound will power on and will work with this battery, BUT
1. The battery icon on the notification bar will display a strange symbol, where it does not seem to understand the current battery charge level. A workaround would be to load Circle Battery Widget (free from market) which did seem to report an accurate battery level.
2. The killer - you cannot charge the battery using your Rezound, or a Rezound external charger. I plugged in the Rezound to a micro USB charger that I normally use and it looks like it's going to charge for a couple seconds (solid amber LED) but then it starts blinking alternate green and amber on the LED. This means there is a battery issue. Left it plugged in for several hours and the battery did not increase its charge. Also tried removing the battery and using an external charger I had for extra Rezound batteries, and it would not charge in there.
I packed the battery back into its plastic case and returned it to Amazon. They accepted the return and refunded my money.
Disappointing... The stock Rezound battery is useless. Even with an extended battery I have to baby it, turn off 4G and keep WiFi and GPS off unless I need them. Occasionally bump charge it or try to keep it above 70% for several days at a time or else it starts discharging at an alarming rate (dead by noon). So I have chargers next to my bed, in the car, and at work. I miss my old Incredible - with the extended battery I got all day even with 5 hours of GPS during a round of golf and some Wifi at home or work. Boo!
What the hell is wrong with your phone? To be fair, today was a light day with only 3 and a half hours of screen on time so far. But still... No reason the extended can't last the day.

Keep in mind everyone's experience will be different. Most people forget that Android is constantly looking for the strongest signal. The one thing you can be sure of is that everyone's phone will discharge at a different rate for that reason alone.
Beyond that you have to consider cpu speed, app configuration, memory leak, phone configuration, and a whole myriad of other factors that can contribute to drain.
I had the extended battery for about a week. In the areas that I live/work, it performed only marginally better than the stock battery. This was most likely due to how I had my phone configured (mostly conservative towards the end). However, for myself, if I feel I have to run this beast of a phone on minimal settings, there's no real point in having it. I made the compromise to return the extended battery and just buy additional chargers. Indeed, I have one on my nightstand, in the car, and on my work desk. The only time I'm really without a charger around is on the weekends when I go out at night. The stock battery performs fine for those purposes.
I will continue to monitor these threads until a suitable extended battery seems to give the majority of us the performance we need.

For the record
I've used this particular HTC Thunderbolt battery in three different Rezounds, with no issue. It seems to perform equal to the Rezound Extended Battery (both 2750 or 2700).
The part numbers on the battery are THE SAME. So at least for the normal extended battery, they (if part numbers being the same means they are the same) have no compatability issues.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0055OTNK4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
I've been using this in my Rezound for a few weeks now.
So ANYONE getting an Extended Battery for their Rezound, and need a little more juice, GET THIS BATTERY! It's $4! It's a perfectly good 2750 extended battery (completely legit) from HTC (not some garbage third party). They're dumping them as a result of overproduction I assume.
It's worth charging one of these up, and keeping it in your glove compartment for a rainy day (that's where mine is).
Everyone. Should. Get. This. For the price, I don't know how you couldn't. It's just that the HTC logo is upside down from the Rezound's (which doesn't matter).
So as an Extra extended battery, it's 10/10.

I got the OEM Rezound extended battery yesterday. Full charge, lasted a decent amount of time. But nothing great.
But I was on 3g, and did stream about 20mins of video. And I surfed quite a bit. But my evo 3d with the 4000mah battery kills the rezound.
I will have a better feel for the battery now that I am back home and on wifi, then on 4g at work. Thats more of my real life usage.
So my OEM Samsung battery is about junk. Wondering what people suggest to get as a replacement and why?
Im looking for something that fits the stock battery cover. I had one of those 4400mah batteries but the cover that came with it didn't last long and there was no case that fit it well.
So what does everyone recommend?
I have 2 anker batterys, and while they both work and have about the same longevity of the stock battery, I encountered 1 issue. One night I left my phone on the charger with the anker in it and woke up to find my phone almost too hot to touch and the overheat symbol on screen. I ripped the battery out, and it was swollen to about 1.5 times the thickness of normal. The phone and battery still work fine, but id rather buy a different brand next time. That's my 2ยข if it helps any.

The ? should be RAVPower. Check this review of various batteries. You may got some idea which one to buy.

Personally prefer Anker .
