[Q] "Better" battery - HTC One X+

Hey guys I just wanted to ask whether there are better batteries for the HOX+.
With better I mean a higher capacity, I read somewhwere that there are better ones for Galaxy Notes,
maybe there are similar ones for our phones. Also I read in another post that a new battery fixed the bug that the last 15-20% are drained in a few mminutes. Is that always the case?

It is not easy to replace HOX's battery. I read somewhere that it is possible to mount a much bigger battery, but the phone will look ugly after that heh. Maybe you should think about a powerbank instead? Those things are promising.

I know that it isn't going to be that easy, but I have to replace my screen anyways, so I would have the chance to switch the battery at the same time. I already got a powerbank and a solar charger, but an even better batterie would be awesome tho. What I'm looking for are not those batteriewhich are bigger than the regular ones (wouldn't fit in the HOX anyways). I look for something with a bigger capacity, but I haven't found anything on amazon yet

Question About 1350 mAh Battery from Amazon

Hello all,
I just bought the 1350 mAh battery from Amazon, but when I opened it I got a little concerned: The battery is half the size in length, and a bit thicker than the original. Moreover, it is a bit wider, making me wonder whether it can fit inside the battery compartment. My most serious concern though, is whether it works properly with the TD2, or it might cause any harm.
Has anybody here tried it? Any feedback?
if it is smaller then it is not for d2.
I see . So it seems I am the only one who bought this and got conned?
The only battery I found on Amazon is for the Diamond, not for the Diamond 2.
I had a Diamond before and the battery does not fit at all in the Diamond 2.
Maybe you can send it back and get your money back.
This the battery I bought:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B002AANPYG/ref=ox_ya_oh_product
As you can see, it states clearly that it is a TD2 battery. My problem is that I cannot return it to them without proof that it is improper, and I am not even sure about this (since I have not tested it, and I am afraid to do so) at the moment...

Look at the other thread on TD2 batteries:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519808
It seems that Anfield800 has buy the same battery as you, you should contact him to check if it is working (and if he indeed have received the same battery, maybe yours is a mistake. Just sending HxWxL and the markings/serial numbers of the battery you have received should be enough to be sure you have received the same).
I am very interested in how things will turn out, I was considering buying the same battery...

I posted a question to that thread, asking Anfield800 about it... I also notified the seller, and he said there must be some mistake, and he will dispatch it again... Let's see...
I will keep you guys posted, anyway.
SOLVED! It seems the guy had sent me the wrong battery... I just got the correct one now, and everything is fine!

Can you tell how the new battery compare to the stock one? Increased battery life? Faster/slower charging? Fit the same?
Thanks!
Fit is identical to the original. When I bought it is was half-charged, so I cannot compare charging time yet... Regarding battery life, the first impressions confirm that it does seem to last longer.
Great.. do keep us posted abt the battery.
Extra 240mAh at the same size at that price seems very tempting..
Thanks!

any pictures with this battery installed??
Does anyone know what is the normal charging time for a 1350mAh battery? I noticed that it needs a couple of hours... Is this normal? Does the fact that it is still new has anything to do with it?
I also noticed that the battery percentage gets up to 99% instead of 100%... Is this of any significance?
A couple of hours seems normal, it depends a little bit on your charger (faster with the htc one than charging from your laptop for example), and also if u sue your device when charging (then it is slower), or even the room temperature.
99% seems strange though, with my original battery, I always reach 100% eventually...and I suspect it goes a little higher than that: the time to go from 100% to 99% is much much longer than for going from 99% to 98% ;-)
Well, it does stay at 99% even if I leave it the whole night charging with the HTC charger...
Maybe it's a bug of the battery icon? I am using the one suggested in this forum, that has percentages and different colors.
Can you post some photos of the battery jcan? It looks idential on ebay uk to this one :

[Q] Super Huge Batter...for real??

Hi,
Just wanted to know whether you guys think that this battery is the real deal, if it is it would be the ideal solution to the short battery life.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GOLD-2430...ltDomain_3&hash=item2eb89962de#ht_2238wt_1139
Thanks
There is a topic in this forum about batteries... Some people say it's really good, and battery last indeed longer. I'm concern about that, and I don't really trust non-official stuff. Our ace comes with a 1350 mah battery, 2430 is almost double capacity, way too much for such a small battery, IMO.
But I'd love to know if someone finds a better battery, I can't stand the crappy battery life we have now.
On the other hand, it costs 15 euros, so, if it's not as good as the original, you can still use it as a spare one, just in case.
Then u have to buy another device, cause the Ace is made for 1350mAh. Its a phone for beginner and therefor not really expensive. If u want a better battery u should buy an S1 or SII or just accept the fact that u have to recharge every day and enjoy ur phone
I personally wouldnt buy any battery on ebay or whatever cause its all fake and cheap it can even damage ur phone..2430 mAh for that kind of battery? surely not possible and it doesnt even say its a lithium Ion Battery..so forget about it its just third party crap u wont have a lot of fun with.. think about why it only costs 12 pounds..

Extended Battery

Even though the back of the Evo Lte is not removable, it technically can be with a tool. Do you think it's possible that an extended battery will be made? Or will we see battery case first?
I wouldn't mind seeing an extended battery that is not so huge it's ugly. Maybe like 2400 mah or something with a smaller after market battery door.
It all depends how much more they can fit in that size of battery before causing issues, and if the flex cable is the same. And if you could get a bigger extended battery, you would need a new frame, and hopefully everything works well so the battery doesn't crush the board/lcd when its fully put back together.
I'm just speculating, but I suspect HTC crammed the largest battery they could in the available space. I can't imagine why they would leave any excess room. Also, it's probably safe to conclude that replacing the stock battery with another one would void your warranty. If I end up needing more juice than what is already there, I will probably get one of those portable power packs that offer three to five thousand milli-amps of extra capacity.
I went ahead and purchased this:
http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-IMP60D-Thunderbolt-Blackberry/dp/B003690Q42/ref=pd_sim_e_7
It has really good reviews, plus, you can charge it via USB instead of one the giant wall chargers. Should come in handy with my trip to Europe next month!

I was just looking at that one earlier this morning. It is now on my wish list so I don't have to go searching for it later.

Another one to look at is http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-IMP70D-Thunderbolt-Blackberry/dp/B002D4IHYM/ref=cm_srch_res_rtr_1 - It is slightly larger, but instead of 500 mAh and 1A it charges at 2.1A and 1A, this allows for a lot better charging of pretty much any portable device, including tablets/ipad.

[Q] Experience with 3000mAh BH6X Battery?

I am in search of a new battery and I came across a 3000 mAH battery that doesn't require an extended battery case. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with it:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-7v-BH6X-R...cement-For-Motorola-MB860-ME860-/271036164752
http://www.amazon.com/3000mAh-Rechargeable-Battery-Replacement-Motorola/dp/B008VO07AA
From reading, it seems like you have to calibrate the Atrix to understand the new battery through a couple charges and configuration changes; cool. I am wondering if anyone has had experience with THIS battery? Is it legit?

It's the same size at the standard battery
It's double the capacity
It costs $1.16
If it's too good to be true...

Well in e-bay I buy this battery http://www.ebay.com/itm/2430MAH-HIG...844826?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f1e183dda and it was quiet good for one day, after one day it was dead the battery board was dead and I replace it whit old battery board so I don't think it is real.
I think the picture says it all. Not quite sure why someone would even bother considering a battery with such almost offensively unrealistic specs.
To store more current, the battery has to be physically bigger. It's why "D" cell batteries are bigger than "A" cell batteries even though they have the same voltage output.
Think of current as water. Can you fit more water in a bucket if it's the same size as the one you have?

I had bad experience with several extended batteries from ebay. I always prefer to buy an extra regular battery instead of having an extended battery.

[Q] Extended Battery

what is the largest factory size extended battery we can get for the note2? I found this but, wanted to know if they had say a 4000 or 3800 that can fit same size...

I don't think you are going to find a battery that is 3800-4000 mAh that fits without needed a new back for the phone.
The first review for the battery you posted says that NFC will not work because it was "built into" the samsung battery. Is this true? I thought it was on the inside of the rear cover, and from the looks of it this battery does not need a new back.
EDIT: Never mind I just realized that the first review was for a Galaxy Nexus battery.
I would like to know too. I bought a 6200mah awhile back and although it has amazing battery life, it felt too heavy and the bulkiness was a bit too much. It'll be good for trips though
