Thanks for the link. I think I might try the 1800mah extended battery when I get a chance. I think the TP2 is only 1500mah. I'm going for the big guy. Here is the link for the 1800 http://www.mugenbattery.com/htc-touch-pro2-standard-power-battery.htm

I have been alternating between the stock battery and the TP2 battery (which I got off ebay for cheap). The TP2 battery is thicker than stock and will warp your battery cover if you charge the batter in your phone with the cover on (happened to me once already). Now when I use the TP2 battery I just leave the cover off.
Also, I've conditioned my stock battery and get a solid 12+ hours out of it with a significant amount of use.

yes it lasts me about a day and a half i came from a g1 with a 2300 battery and i can say it is worth buying the stock battery gives you 5.2 talk time and the mugen one gives you 7.2hrs talk time its a big recomendation for the my touch slide.
wheres the froyo? we need froyo!
I also had a 2300 battery too with my g1 if its about the same life without the huge hump ill definitely get one then. Thank you for the insight.

Just info, i've just bought seidio 1750mah extended battery for htc hero cdma on ebay for 49usd. And it fits perfectly, no gap at the battery cover just like stock battey.
Today i use it for the first time and it performs almost 60% than stock battery.
Seidio maybe slightly pricy but i used its product on my blackberry storm and didnt dissapoint me also.

Was wondering how the Mugen battery was working out for, thinking of getting one. I know there were issues with other batteries warping the battery door, any signs of this and how much better is battery life. Thanks

mytouch slide extended battery
Alright boys and girls i have tried tested and found that the evo battery works grate and fits well into the my touch slide, currently I am using a 3500 mAH
you can find the link here ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290469686906#ht_4325wt_849
its the cheapest i have found and to top it off you get two battery's a charger and a evo back plate (not that you need the backplate).
The only down side i have now is i need to make or find a decent backplate for it and its not as streamline.
Feel free to let me know if you want pictures or any other fallow up or questions on it ill be more then happy to answer. i hope this helps.
also if any of you have any ideas on a decent back plate or a mod I am all ears.
Ordered a two pack of 1800mAh hero batteries from amazon.com Saturday and they arrived today! The two pack w/charger was less than $40. Fully charged both, and will be doing a lot of conditioning the next few days. I'll let you know how they turn out.

Here's a nice website which does a head to head comparison between various battery manufacturers for different phones. OEM batteries seem to perform closest to their advertised ratings: batteryboss dot org
Mugen offering MT3GS Batteries
Found this link,
mugen-power-batteries.com/t-mobile/t-mobile-mytouch-3g-slide.html
Looks like they have a 1800 and 3200 that comes with a back cover. Anyone try either of these yet. Looks promising.
Hello,
I am planning to place an order for anker 3500mah for evo 3d sprint with backcover. its comes in my budget and bulky body doesnt matter me.
I am only concern of long lasting battery. can anyone can review this who have purchased it?
no reply yet? anyone? btw i ordered one from ebay. let see.
I got a 3500mah battery from handhelditems, its not branded with anything special, picked it up for $9.99,
And it lasts me a good 14hours easy with pretty heavy use...

That doesn't seem like heavy use. Looks like you have your screen on for about an hour maybe 2....
I am asking about anker one, which is quite good as per other batteries. unbranded 3500mah really not that good. They have launched this 3500mah battery few days before it cost around 18.99$ on ebay.

This looked like a good buy for me. 5200 extended battery for under $10! I used promo code SAVEMORE and got an extra discount plus its free shipping 3-5 days. I will post more when it comes in.

Got the battery in today, going to do all full charge and clear the battery stats. Looks good and fits nicely I posted a question in the Q&A looking for an app to test the battery, I would like to know if its really 5200 mAh.

hate to be cynical, but a good percentage of the after market batteries are China made. Only the high end batteries are made from Japan. Even the OEM batteries are technically made in China. (even tho they like to write, "Designed in...." another country. Take Apple for example. or Samsung)
battery
The picture of the battery from the link you posted clearly says "made in china" I'd still like to know how you make out with this though. I think i have a defective battery from samsung because i don't seem to get nearly the time as everyone else seems to get on this site
Thanks so much for this link. However, I'm skeptical since it's so cheap. I'm gonna wait till some other order this and review it. I've always paid way too much for extended batteries from seidio for my former EVO phones and am tired of it. So I'm gonna watch this closely.
I have kept my GPS ,Bluetooth, data on all day. I watch over 2hrs worth of videos and been on the internet all day. I charged it for the first time last night and I want to drain it 100% today. 16hrs of extra heavy usage and I still have 11% of battery remaining.
Cons - cheep back cover very thin plastic.
Will update after a few days.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Just received mine today... the back plate doesn't quite fit correctly. The right side of the back plate doesn't clip in flush.
EDIT: after some aggressive pushing the the backplate it seems to have all clipped in. For less than $9, I can't complain on the fitment. Its pretty impressive. I'll report back in a few days after the battery has cycled to show results.

Ordered this also. For $10 shipped it's worth a shot. The tough to install back cover seems pretty common in these bargain extended batteries, but if it fits who cares. If it works as well as I hope it will, i will consider modding my Seido Active case. With the right application of heat and cutting, I may get something to work. Said it's shipping from their international warehouse whereas the other batteries I ordered for wifes tmo exhibit2 are shipping from stateside warehouse. Was hoping for fast delivery but that's out the window.
I will say this battery is pretty good so far. I'm at 17% battery and at around 5 hours screen on time. Full sync, all location setting on except GPS, etc. Not trying to save battery at all.
Does anyone notice the battery jumping up slightly? Sometimes it will go from 30% to 29%, then back up to 30-31%. Gonna ride it out till its completely dead and recharge.
Sucks that I have no case on it, so I ordered an aluminum bumper.

My phone was doing that on the first battery drain. After I wiped the battery bin I have not seen it again.
My last test was an 8 hr road trip with navigation on the entire trip. My battery level went down to 25% after 8 hrs of GPS full brightness and no charging.

What battery is the best to buy with this phone? Like ankers and such. And please provide the link where you brought the battery at!
I bought a 2450mAh battery off eBay for around 10 bucks. It's supposed to be an extra 38% in total power compared to the stock battery but you can't be sure with these things. I don't know of any name-brand batteries but this one seems to work.

+1, I have two of the Anker Batteries ($30 with wall charger) and they are superb. I get about 10-14 hours on CM10 and 8-12 hours on the stock ROM with pretty heavy use.
Anker for me as well for the Amaze. If Zerolemon made a battery for the Amaze I'd buy that.

A good one
I found this one on Amazon. I ordered one and it lasts better than any other one I've tried. I think they are factory rejects; the water sticker is red and the labels are on backwards. But I don't care if it provides maximum battery life. I ordered a couple more for spares.

Hey all
Just wondering if anyone knows of an extended battery that is no larger than twice the size of an original stock battery...reason I ask is I have a case which I like to use but doesn't accommodate the normal 5000 to 5200mAh extended batteries you find on eBay..they are much thicker...only one I have seen that is this size I need which is approximately 1cm thick is the mugen power but that battery is way overpriced...if anyone could help me find a cheaper alternative would greatly appreciate it...thanks

Much talk about extended batteries in the accessory section. This should be asked there.

My 2700 Anker made a noticeable difference. The phone was only a few months old when I got it so I'd guess the stock battery was fine.
This one actually fits (does not need a bulky battery cover) and is 3030 mAh for only $5.60 with free shipping!!!! http://dx.com/215304
I've been using it for several months now and i'm HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY with it!!!! (But I still carry the original fully charged in my pocket because sometimes I just use my Note too darn much while spending a day away from home. Even with GPS/Wi-Fi off and power saving mode and automatic brightness and auto-rotation off, and all redundant background apps frozen, etc., I still end up going through a full charge sometimes, though seldom, thanks to this high capacity battery. Must be the LTE 4G data link draining it.)
This battery fits both the i9220 and i717
I've heard a lot of the battery's are fakes ...

I agree and am equally as skeptical. They are fake in that the posted mah probably isn't 3030. But I have heard they are indeed larger than the stock battery...just not the posted 3030mah. may be somewhere around 2700 to 2800 mah. Of course this is just what I've heard from a friend.
But if someone can post some proof of better battery life with these things than that would be appreciated
ill be buying one friday and i have to get a new charger port and tool repair kit cause i believe my charging port took a ****t on me lol will report back once all is done probably a week honestly ..cheers
