[Q] Swapping Battery - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Since the new HTC One X+ has a larger battery would it be possible to crack the 4G LTE open and replace it with the One X+ battery?

Oh sure. Why not? The evo has an aluminum back that will probably bend right around the larger battery.

Technically, as long as the specs are the same it should work. But getting it to fit would be a different story. Not to mention the EVO LTE likes to turn off and never come back on with the stock battery. I wouldn't do it, but u can be the guinea pig.
When I say as long as the specs are the same I mean I haven't checked. That entails the connection, voltage drop, and physical size allowing it to fit.

Put a little piece of paper behind your battery or a corner of a reward card... Just something to make the battery more secured to the terminals

ok, I give it a try.
you mean the 2 "contactors" (sorry for bad English)?
but when they don't fit exactly, my phone will turn off, isn't?

That means u have a bad battery.... I had the same problem so I took it back to the store and they gave me a new battery

On the opposite side of the microSD card toward the lower half of the phone
Just stick a small enough piece of a card to make a good fit
My phone did this and after this I hardly ever get the exclamation battery ( only happens when it gets extremely overheated now)

I just asked this in another thread. Happened to me the first time last night and again today. I was doing a lot of battery pulls due to some svn problems. The volume +/- and power button wasn't cutting it, had to battery pull to get to recovery. Maybe I bent a contact or something, happened on my old TP2 one time. Otherwise, I may look at a new battery or two.

Problems with NFC chip

Anyone have problems using the android beam with a galaxy nexus from the EVO

I haven't tried using it yet.
ive tried today and it didnt work does anyone know the reason why it wouldnt?
Mine didn't work the first time but does now. Mine was EVO to EVO though.

The chips aren't aligned in the two phones. You have to put the nexus butt near the evo head.
After doing that it worked for me.

Little dent on the back?

I noticed on the back of my EVO there's a little dimple on the bottom left corner... Anybody else have that little dimple?

One of my buddies said it's part of the manufacturers design... But why would that be there lol? I thought mine was dinged coming out of the box

Ha! Never noticed it... I'm on my 2nd EVO LTE, so I guess it was on the first too...

Yep, I have one as well. Never noticed it under my Diztronics case, but it's clearly a manufacturing thing as it's perfectly circular.

Another screen shot proving Insanely good battery life

This phone has the battery life locked down probably second best to the DROID razor max
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
You're on pace for 20 hours according to this.
I broke 60 hours with my OG EVO on CM7, and consistently got 40. That said, I'm still happy with this battery life! I just need one day and I'm happy.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
It's a big step for HTC and android
Apparently the scepticsicm on sealed battery backfired
The og evo ALWAYS HAD CRAP BATTEEY LIFE. UNLESS ON A EXTENDED BATTEEY.
I'm not sure what alien programmed your og evo, but I found them all to be junk for battery life and I owned least 15
I still say in my opinion the evo lte has the s3 beat in design looks battery life all of it.
It's a very good phone

My best on my OG evo was 3.5 days (battery 0) of normal (light) use.

All HTC phone batteries were crap until the s4 processor. If you got that much out of the og evo you werent using it

I remember seeing some screenshots of insanely good battery life on the og evo then finding out the ones who posted the screenshots had extended batteries lol
This is with just over 3 hours of screen on time. My record is 6 hours of screen on after 16 hours, with about 15% of battery left.
Probably the best I've gotten so far after using it all day.

My battery is nor bad when I use the phone to make calls or sms but when I use it for browsing using google chrome or chatting using whatsapp its become very bad it dropped about 20% / hour when I use it for browsing with the screen setting on automatic. I'm still running stock thhough . Any input on how to make it last longer? If I use the phone just to make calls and sms it can last me more than a day.

What I would do is adjust your brightness manually. I work 3rd shift though, so my brightness is pretty much always @ 15%. The screen is what eats up the most battery, so logically using less backlight will lower that.
When I watch movies over netflix I lose about 15-20% an hour. 5 hours of streaming video is pretty good.
Ow okay, thx ill try that. I thought is the data transfer that eats up the battery as the phone get hot when theres data transfers going.
Anyway I want to try to install the mean Rom as most people says it has a battery saver function that supposedly make the battery life a little bit longer.
