Looking to buy a high capacity battery for my x10 mini pro.
Maybe 1500-2500 mah?
I know there are alot of duds out there...
I'm looking at these right now:

http://www.dinodirect.com/sony-ericsson-s500-business-battery-1500mah-deji.html?cur=EUR
Any links/advice would be great!
All i'm going to say is, Non sony-ericsson battery may cause damage to your device, use it carefully and give us a feedback if it works, or don't.
I bough one for my old Nokia 8310 and it worked perfectly.
I bought the DEJI BST-38 from dinodirect, it comes in a very posh box but it doesnt last any longer than the stock battery.
Ok, well I bought two batteries online and I'm waiting for them to arrive in the coming days...
I don't have the details of each at hand but I hope to test them for you when I get them.

I'd be interested in your results. I just got my x10 mini pro and have already noticed that the battery doesn't last long. Same as my old Nokia n95 and before that a SE p800... eventually both these phones got decent higher power batteries available... I'll wait till I get a few reports. Maybe someone could build a thicker back case and a bigger battery?
What we must know is : is it a lithium-ion or lithium-polymer battery
Because, Li-Ion last longer, but they get warm quickly
Li-Polymer are quite the same, but they stay cold.
Oh... The battery performance are quite the same between those two
the best phone ever. 6 days stand by time. i charge it once a week with gold bst-38 battery of 1920mah which i bought from ebay. also i upgraded it to froyo 2.2 from xda developers and now this beauty is flying.
best phone ever.

Hmmm last time I checked there was nothing on ebay for mini/pro battery!
Can u give all the statistics of the battery?
how could a battery of the same size provide almost three times the capacity of the stock one? maybe it's because it uses the new Li-bull**** technology

Sure, here it is:
Made in Japan
2 year warranty
Utra-high capacity battery
Maximises time between charges
Delivers superior performance
Robust & durable battery
Direct battery replacement
Stable and safe to use
No memory effect
Uses Li-poly technology
Capacity: 2430mAh
Its not your li-ion battery crap that overheats and causes the mini to reboot, its li-poly.
With reports of 1930mh lasting for 6 days with one charge, im guessing 2430mah could last 8 - 10 days =)

Sounds good! Please test it and let us now about the feedback as I really want a more powerful and long-lasting battery too =D
Hey please include a screenshot, not all of us have the same phone usage as you
XDA ♥
does it work for mini or just for mini pro?
I just googled a little about gold batteries from Japan. samsunggalaxysforums.com/archive/index.php/t-3856.html?
found a thread where samsung galaxy user tried gold battery and it lasted much more than stock. If i remember in a heavy usage user managed to get abou 3 hours with stock and more than 5 hours with gold battery. It seems that original batteries cost about 20 usd for piece.
I will try to buy one and test it because the one of my mini pro doesn't last more thant 4 hours with heavy use (3g umts 24/7 online, push for twitter, gmail, listening to music in streaming. or watching videos from the sd. and the battery in my phone is of 970 mAh Li-ion and it overheat fast .w.

Wow 4 hours thats bad!
Then again mine is probably that bad too...the heaviest I use it is having 3G/wifi on and chatting on facebook or whatsapp, perhaps whilst listening to music.
And yes, the battery drops at something like 1% every 3 minutes or so...its ridiculous!
Which is why I hardly ever use it heavily whilst im away from home - I'm scared it'll go flat while I'm out!
I'm seriously considering getting an Iphone as my next phone now, because android phones in general do not last a normal day under heavy use...whilst my friends with their Iphone 4s constantly have 3G on, with their large screen on nearly full brightness, constantly checking facebook and chatting over the internet...yet their batteries last the day quite easily....
if you will buy from ebay than look there cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200532787453&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_3017wt_1251&clk_rvr_id=248408890642
Guy from samsung forum has battery from digi.tech seller and looks like that battery really works much better than OEM.
Just bought the 2430 mHa battery on eBay,. I hope to get it within a week.
I'll give you a feedback report as soon as I get the new battery. Bye

Did you got your battery already?
Hi guys! My Gold 2430 mHa battery arrived about a week ago. I needed some tests before I could give my opinion.
I expected more than a 100% improvement from this battery compared to the 950 mHa standard battery, the facts say that I can get only from 30 to 60% improvement. At the evening, whereas I had 10-20% of charge, now I still have 30-40%.
I think it's possible that the phone stop charging too soon, when it get to a given level of charge, so I ordered an external charger (I hope it will arrive soon) to make more tests.
I am not sure, but it seems that the new battery full charges faster than the old one.
A notice: the battery is a bit longer than the stock one. I had to slice a little of plastic with a knife (less than a millimetre) to let it fit into the phone.
hello
I am using xperia x10 and needed an external battery. Which one should I use? personally I like zerolemon. But what about 5star america? heard many negative comment about it. Please someone recommend me!! :/
I've been using a Sony CycleEnergy CP-ELS
Takes a while to charge, but will replenish a 1500mAh battery.
I have one sitting around in my car, for those odd occasions.
It was a shopping reward product, so not a considered 'paid' purchase, but seems to do the job and is small enough to store phone and battery in a pocket while charging if need be.
Hi
I am Nexus 4 user - great phone with lot of great ROMs available here, great performance and good size - but battery is no longer big enough to match my needs. So I am looking for a new phone and ran into Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro.
There is a lot of positive comments about this device, but also quite a lot of drawbacks - no 800MHZ band, problems with microphone/speaker, some battery performance issues... So, is there any better choice in that kind of money? I am looking for something with big battery to be able to do something more than 2-2,5h of WEB vieweing... I am not playing games, apps that I am using are not really demanding ones. My other thought is Asus Zenfone Max - but Redmi Note 3 PRO looks much better while comparing some statistics.
So, any other thoughts? I would be grateful for all responses and advices
If you need 800mhz try: http://www.geekbuying.com/item/-HK-...OTG-Fast-Charge-Gyroscope---Black-367828.html
I have no issues with battery or speaker. 800mhz isn't the end of the world unless you 100% need it
If you can live without 800mhz and bad low light camera, nothing can beat this device value. Battery and performance is among the best you can get today.
I never have those mic/speaker/battery/performance issues.
Hello, I received my RN3 Pro yesterday and I have to say it's freakin amazing. A definite upgrade from Nexus 4(I came from a Moto G2, and before that Nexus 4). I charged it to 100% yesterday and it gave me 7.5hrs SOT till 1pm today, which is frankly mind blowing for two reasons,
1) More than 4hrs SOT ftw
2) I played around 1hr of Pokemon go ( continuously uses 3G and GPS) and still managed 7hrs sot.
So yes, you'll easily get >3hrs of web viewing. The one issue I found however is that the phone makes a hissing sound when connected to AUX cable, many people have this problem and are saying it's software related, so maybe there will be a fix. Secondly on very low volume with earphones,(step 1-3) you can hear a noticeable hissing sound which I'm pretty sure is software related, but it's not a deal breaker. The drawback of the Asus I feel is that there's no rom support, not as good specs as the RN3. RN3 has a snapdragon 650 which is basically an improved version of last year's flagship SoC. Also, build quality is amazing on the RN3. MIUI is a great feature packed rom!
So basically I definitely recommend the RN3, the battery life is going to definitely make you very happy ��
Yes definitely,its a beast and even I came from mako to this phone .I've to say I'm amazed by its battery and performance.really so fast the custom ROM development is awesome for this phone.. definitely a good choice to buy this phone for such a low cost..!
Thank You very much for all answers
Yeah, I think I can live without 800mhz, for taking good photos in every occasion I have other more specialized devices
I just ordered 2/16 version
It's already been more than 2 years since, OP2 was launched. I was curious how many of us still use this actively. This might also be helpful for developers who are currently developing for this device.

I had my device over a year and still going strong. I recently noticed that my device takes very long to charge. Dunno if it's the cable or battery. However there are alot of developers for this device and I hope it stays the same as the device gets older. I'm going to stay with this device until some hardware fails then look to upgrade to the op5 or later when that time comes

Got the device since February 2016. No protectors, no cases, custom ROMs from day one. Has some scratches on the sides, but is perfect anyway. Still getting decent battery life, the camera is really nice, loudspeaker is incredible, everything is fast and reliable. Currently on Unofficial RR 5.8.5. Oreo is coming at some point, probably at least as stable as nougat. I am actively looking for a new phone, but absolutely nothing that comes out newer seems to be worth it. It's perfect for me. Also, thank you to the devs that don't give up on the device development.

I use it always since 2 years... And I don't found any device to replace it ....
I'm use it with a custom ROM since the beginning with lineage os and now is it on AoespExtended ROM.. It is drop many time, I have change the screen one time and since 4 month the home button doesn't work... But it work fine... Perhaps the oneplus 5t will be the next.......

I'm using this since February 2017 and so far it's so good
Compared to my previous Xperia Z3, camera is better, battery backup is as good as Z3, overall speed is almost the same (some frame drops seen in games but i think it's OOS fault), software in some aspects has weakness but strengths at some others, loud speaker isn't comparable since Z3 was stereo, telephony is the same, Development is much better
I wish it had support for microSD card
Anyway it's quite good and i won't leave it until hardware problems appear and maybe my next phone will be OP3T
Using it since October 2015, though this happened yesterday PIC
I've been using mine for about a year. I'm looking for a new phone, but not in a hurry. Been on rooted Oxygen the whole time.
I'm using it as my primary device from last 1 year
still rocking my OP2 from release, even dropped it in water once still working for now, and one of the best custom rom communitys !
Proud op2 user.

Try downloading ampere from play store, you should get about 1000mv charging, if less try another cable.

With stock OP2 charger or any 2.4 AMP charger and a good high quality cable you should get 1800 mA on Ampere app. Not 1000.

It's like you've got no idea what you're talking about.
You're talking about the app Ampere, which measures your current in milli Ampere and you're talking about milli Volts.
The app won't give you the best readings, mine was shifting between 1500mA and 1700mA and sometimes it would drop to 400mA. Best is to use an usb voltage/ampere meter.

:silly:
It's an easy way to make sure your charger and cable are not completely stuffed. If your getting over 1000ma then things are working well enough at the end of the day.
But thankfully with your immense wisdom the world we be a better place :highfive:
Oneplus 2 is my daily driver since August 2015
I'm using OP2 from august 2015, i bought this mobile wen it launched in india. I was the frst user who bought this mobile in my native, i'm very happy for that. :good:
I loved the mobile till date
Using Last 2 year.... Great OP2
I have had my OP2 as my primary device for a week now. Before that I tried several custom ROMs and used OP2 with Desolation ROM for about two months as a secondary device. I had Sony Xperia Z5 Compact as my "phone" and OP2 as my "camera". But now I feel I can trust OP2 enough to carry only one device with me.
I am curious. I'm looking to replace the phone my son is using (ZTE ZMax Pro from MetroPCS). I replaced the screen a couple of months ago cause it was cracked and now his phone dies any where from 40 to 60 percent battery left. I think I might have damaged the battery prying it out to get to the screen. Anyway, would the OP2 be a decent phone for him? He's only 13. The ZTE is a 6" screen, so that'll be a step down for him, but the fingerprint sensor would be on par. I've gotten my wife a OP3T, and really like it (and she loves it). The price on Swappa seems about right for the OP2 (less than $200, with the only one available right now at $165). I want to get him a phone that'll last him at least a year, if not more. Development still seems pretty good.

Dev is good 8.1 is working great with pixel experience.
Battery is pretty great as well.
I have been using A2003 for more than two years now and I'm going to echo someone else's opinion here. I'll be using this device until some hardware get busted or I lose it. This is my only and primary device Thanks to all the developers for their work and support Hope to more love showered!!
Hey guys I was actually scouting for new devices when I found a unboxed but new edge 30 pro for a great price. So my question is, is it a good device and should I even consider buying it. Also on the same point how is the battery life which is my greatest worry considering the 8 gen 1 in it. And how is the stock ui been.
Thank you !
Welp, phone seems pretty nice,
But 5000mAh battery scares me.
its not worth it, battery life is atrocious, updates are the worst in Android world, has no telephoto whatsoever, if u are into stock just get Pixel or Oneplus
OnePlus seems to be a problematic about its firmware and productivity,
Redmi or poco would be nice
Samsung would be nice too.
OnePlus with custom rom is considered best + it's snapdragon not overheating Tensor mess, Xiaomi with AOSP if any for newer devices, is trash and is best used with MIUI ( noone really likes that )
Of course it is, Xiaomi phones only indeed to work nicely with MIUI,
My battery lasts easily 1 day, sometimes up to 2, I really have no clue why are people complaining - are y'all running with all your services turned on constantly?...
literally everyone who owns a motorola device is complaining in their official forums so you gotta be using it for phone calls only and not as a top dog smart device, the drain on that thing is insane, if i bring my old Snapdragon 865 device running both @ 144hz , Moto will be fully dead while the other will be at over 60%
US equivalent is Edge+2022
A13 has battery improved, but it has minor flickering issue due to inconsistent brightness on different refresh rate. Set it on 60 or 144Hz can avoid the issue

I don't complain. I have Moto device (mid-range) and it has been very good since 2019. Month ago i changed new battery and now it's still good for next three years
Battery life is also great. 2 days easily and 7-8H sot usually with 60% usage.

Ah i see, yeah i would love to do that but the reason i was considering the edge 30 pro was due to a fantastic deal. After some days of researching i beleive this is a good device with a minor caviate being the battery life
Hopefully once i do get the device the battery wouldn't be too much of an issue, and i don't find any other skeltons in the closet. (Maybe i might even be pleasently suprised by the battery life considering my 888 is not a high bar to clear)

I don't think that battery life is your problem. I think 8 gen 1 heating could be problem.

Ah, i see from what i have read though even with the x30 being an inferno, the edge 30 pro was quite good with head management, i hope that statement is actually true and not just reviewer fluff
there is no heat management, device is very plasticky and thus has no vapor chamber solution, heat is not an issue, battery suffers from poor governors, if u are buying from china unlock bootloader and use it with custom rom
