I must have one of those! Already got a 3200mAH battery and I love it, is anyone else going to order one of these beasts?
Mine is in transit, coming from Netherlands. Its way cheaper than buying anything from lionbattery.com . Those guys are thieves. $230 for goddamn 4800mAh where it should only cost $80.
Anyways these guys are certified Mugen dealers/resellers. Go for it without second thoughts.
nuclear, would you be so kind as to post a quick 'review' when you get it?
We want to know what it looks like, ie. is it larger than the eBay 3200/3800mAH batteries, and if so by how much? And what is the performance like, ie. how long does it last under heavy and light use? Does it obscure the camera in any way?
If you could post some of your thoughts when you receive it, we would very much appreciate that - many thanks
RE
I know one good way of using the battery juice - watching videos and slideshows presentation
Attached a SDIO video-out card to the Uni and have the card connected to a cellphone-sized projector, here:-

provided the projector can accept the input connection of the SDIO video-out card

yea i got 3200mah from ebay for $15. Its very efficient. Damn too many thieves in the world nowadays selling something thats $8 for $80. Although i dont mind paying $150 for 5200mAh. Its all good. Not a very heavy rip off like lionbattery. I hope lionbattery gets robbed bad. I am really pissed.
RE
3200mAH for only $15..WOW. Is this 1st or 2nd hand battery?
I got the 3800mAH from expansys for US$80+

I feel sorry for you. yes 3200mAh brand new from ebay. Came from Shanghai. Very trustworthy these 3200mAh batteries.
I need help to make a decision. Which device to buy?
HTC Atena - $750 or
O2 XDA Flame - $600 or
HTC Kaiser - $900
As you see I already owned a HTC Athena before and I also own HTC Kaiser. But I cannot keep 10 devices cause it gets really confusing. Like which device must I use. Thats why i have decided to keep 2 devices. HTC Universal forever and one more. I am all about performance and technical detail. Size must be small too.

i would say, kaiser.
Athena - good but too big to carry around
Flame - since you already have universal, what's the point?
kaiser - small & keyboard is useful.
side track a bit, do give us your verdict on the big 5200 batt. Glad that you like my recommendation.

Well Flame is better then Universal.
Flame got 2GB ROM, 128MB RAM, GPU Nvidia 5500, Smaller
Universal dont have that kind of stuff.
Good News. I will be getting my 5200mAh battery before the 28th. It ships via TNT.

Just a side track.
Is the O2 XDA Flame out? I like its hugh ROM - 2GB. I believe it supports external hard disk, right?
Why there's no mention of it on this board?
I've read some review and find that its battery is the weakest point. Is there a high cap battery (like 3000 - 6000 mAH)?

Good News! The 5200mAh battery has arrived. Its amazing. Its bigger than 3200mAh. It came via USPS. It wasn't TNT. I think it was the regular Netherlands postal service. Anyways its huge but thats no problem because the battery door is really stylish.
Pictures of the battery will be posted soon. I am going to take pictures and uplaod them to photobucket.
RE
nuclear,
Can you measure the thickness of the battery? I'll like to know how thick it is
Thanks

While my jasjar is walking through the graveyard, seeking a way-out, with its lcd leaking like crazy, I was checking out the accessories at eBay.
There are extended batteries listed on eBay.
Search text:::
* jasjar extended battery
* jasjar spare battery
They mention:
*Rechargeable and removable power
*Xda Exec/T-Mobile Mda Pro/i-mate Jasjar/Qtek 9000/Orange spv m5000 series compatibility
*Extended 3000 mAh
*Easy installation
*CE APPROVED
About ~27 pounds each (battery & extended backcover).
So it looks like it will be a whopping 1620->3000mah jump... almost double the charge capacity
Any comments on these items? Has anyone tried them already?
- Matt
I have one of the 3000mA ones. Works fine. Adds bulk to the unit though.
I also have the 3000mah thicker battery with battery cover..and I must say that I'm quite impressed with it so far. It obviously does add to the size but as I dont usually carry my exec in any type of case it doesnt bother me, however I do use a screen protector as I keep the unit in protrait mode normally.
Definatly worth it if you can handle the extra thickness.

Hi all.
I found this website.

I think, we can buy Extra Battery for Universal from this Net Shop.
But I didn't try it yet.
How do you think, is it Reliable?
Thanks for the link.
Here is a direct one: http://www.batteryupgrade.com/produ...98&PHPSESSID=2eb7a0b635fbf964f5d5e31df30bec6e
But there was no picture nor mention of any added cover.
Cap?
It is written "imate JASJAR Cap Battery"
What is "Cap" means?
Is it possible about Battery cover or some other?

CHEAP!
Imagine putting 4 2500MaH rechargable batteries in it = 10.000 Mah extened Battery + charger.
Connect it when you don't use it, and you always have a full Universal to use.
Also you can buy the batteries in every store in case you need it.
Thank you for your email.
Take a look in this information. It is really interesting but I have not information about quality or security on purchase, do you know this shop?
The following batteries are also suitabel for the iMate Jasjar:
1750 mAh
(http://www.batteryupgrade.com/product_detail.php?productId=28712338 )
3150 mAh
(http://www.batteryupgrade.com/product_detail.php?productId=26539598 )
(the second battery is slightly larger that the original, but comes with an
extended cover which fits your PDA).
i just received a 3800mAh expanded battery from expandsys. ii wanted a 4800, but i didn'tthink it would fit any of the cases i have around, this barely makes it. it's black, and the cover and battery and intergrated together. it's very nice, even thought my PDA unit is silver it give it the two tone that matches the speaker. oddly they don't seem to offer it anymore; the total. price was 91.95 including tax. and shipping.
Looks like my main battery for O2 XDA NEO is dying, maybe WM6 is eating more of my battery power. Now I want to get a replacement battery. Besides the factory type isnt there a newer version and holds more charge too? Not sure about reliability, if anyone can share some of their experinces will be great.

Batteries with Extanded Covers ... THEY SUCKS!
The Cover is crap!
The 1800mAh isnt easy to find ... i think its the best Batterie in the moment. If HTC make a extanded batterie kit ... buy it! I have a Startrek with new Coverer and the Quality is very high!
Do you have a link or a pic of the battery? why the extanded covers sucks can you explain that?

true ... true
My friends and I are using the 1800mAh batteries from this seller http://search.stores.ebay.com.au/SO...dgetsQQfsooZ2QQfsopZ2QQsaselZ30323434QQsofpZ0
Comparing to my one year old 1200mAh original battery the results were obvious. I could get more than 90 hours of standby with a few mins of call each day. Something I couldn't have thought of with a PocketPC phone.
It's been about 5 months since my purchase, the battery is still good. I heard from others that non-genuine battery tend to have shortened lifespan in just a few months.
Only about 3 to 5 grams heavier and 1mm thicker (which leaves no space between the back cover and the battery) if you do notice these minute differences. It's crucial that the battery won't make your Prophet any thicker!
My only complain was, if you asked, that it took almost a week for the delivery. Otherwise I'm happy with it.

Maybe WM6 has some bug that is draining your battery so much. I have 1200mA battery and it works 4-5 days before recharging.

Just ordered 2 battery's @t dealextreme
just took delivery of one of the dealextreme batteries, put it in and no sign that it is charging - battery monitor says "unknown", no orange light or % charge shown. Is it dud or do I have to wait a few hours......?
update, I have 2 of these 1800mah batteries and each behaving same - they don't appear to be charging. Any wise words?
@roughneck57 : sorry to hear.. especially after purchasing 2. does the battery heat up at all?
i ordered one.. and i'm still waiting for it to arrive. now i'm worried.
have you contacted extremedeals, how are they handling it ?
best of wishes,
~ truffles
so far, can't complain as they appear to be sending replacements - and i asked them to check before sending - see below second email I have received regarding the matter:
Thank you for contacting DealExtreme.com Customer Support.
We will make sure the qulity before we send it.
Please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions.
Best regards,
Tiffany
DealExtreme.com Customer Support
forgot to say, battery is not heating up at all - I left it on charge for 3 or 4 hours last night and nothing - however, residual charge is actually powering the PDA so there is life in there. Must be the chip that reports on battery condition and charge etc.
Also, I have tried both in 3 different PDA (m600's) and same problem. One phone has an 1800mah battery purchased from ebay and that looks exactly the same but works fine - so it's not as if the PDA can't handle non-standard size.
Hope this helps.
I've just purchased my THIRD extended battery for my MDA PRO, and I have learned quite a lot over the past few years so I will share some of this information with you, in the form of a buyer's guide to getting a new battery for your HTC Universal.
Types
There are THREE different physical types of replacement battery (PU16A) available for the HTC Universal. These are:
Standard (original) type battery. These are the same size as the battery that came with your Universal when you originally purchased it, so they do not increase the size or weight of your device and do not need a new back cover. They vary in rated capacity from 1600 to 1750mAh, and are the cheapest to buy.
Extended battery. There are 3 or 4 different brands of this type floating around, and they vary in rated capacity from 3150 to 3800mAh. At the moment the 3150mAh 'Cameron Sino' brand is by far the most widely available on eBay. These are also cheap, and actually offer the best price/mAh rating of all (bang for buck). These also significantly increase the size and weight of your device, and they require a new back cover (which should always be included when you buy the battery).
Ultra extended battery. There are 3 different brands of this type: The 4800mAh 'Cameron Sino' which is the cheapest, the 5000mAh Worcell which is a LOT more expensive, and at the very top we have the 5200mAh Mugen which is VERY expensive indeed. This type of battery increases the size and weight of your device even further, and includes a new back cover which is larger than the one found on 3xxx mAh batteries (although in my opinion it does look better!).
My main point is that within each type, the various different brands of battery are all physically identical, that means they have exactly the same components as each other. It is possible that they may have been made in different factories, eg. some in Japan and some in China, although to be honest I doubt this as it just does not make financial sense to produce this product in anywhere other than 1 factory.
Quality issues
The first 3200mAh battery I purchased was faulty, my phone just displayed a red light and refused to boot no matter what I did. The replacement was fine however, and I have been using it until today as my new 4800mAh battery has just arrived
Reading through these forums, it seems that quite a few people have experienced the "red light" issue on new batteries purchased from eBay sellers in Hong Kong. This is not common at all, but there is a small risk that it can happen.
In my opinion though, the massive amount of money you can save by purchasing the battery from eBay is more than worth this risk (all sellers should replace faulty batteries anyway). The 5200mAh Mugen battery for example is nearly five times more expensive than a Cameron Sino 4800mAh from eBay, and this is close to the actual cost of an entire second hand HTC Universal! So from the Ultra category I think only the 4800mAh battery is good value, the 5000 and 5200 models are just FAR too expensive for such little extra benefit - which you are highly unlikely to notice anyway.
Coming soon: Photographs of the 3 different types of battery that are available.
thanks for the tip man
I just ordrered 5200 one from Murgen, hoping to review it soon

Sorry for my first post on this board to be a whinge, but I've found the post extremely useful until I realised it doesn't quite make sense. Are the 4800/5000/5200's the same or different?
Not trying to be picky, but I would actually love to know as I've recently got a 2nd hand universal, and my battery is dying before I get back home from work. This thread seems like it has a lot of info which will be very useful/interesting to me, once it's cleared up.
They are not the same, 4800mah is cheapest and pretty massive and deliveres best bang for the buck performance... 5000 and 5200 models are much expencive and delivers not too much better performance than 4800mAh model...
Building battery for Uni
There is also a possibility to build your own battery for Uni and this hand-made battery is very useful where you don't find the battery for your device....like me.
There is no battery available in my country for Uni and I've built the battery for my device last year, which is still working great.
Tomal: That sounds very interesting, what is the battery life like? And what chemistry is it, Lithium Ion, Lithium Ion Polymer or something else?
Could you take a few pictures? I would love to see it!

What does one have to do AFTER getting a new battery? Do we need to fully charge it, or fully discharge it? Please let me now as my battery arrives on wednesday.
I made a fully discharge then fully charge, but the problem continues.
Maybe the new battery isn't that new as the seller claims???
I saw this on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HTC-WILDFIRE-...neBatteries&hash=item19c20e4292#ht_2661wt_905
want to know if it's any good.

Basically, these are just a numbers on batteries like that (cheap, chinese..)
No quality at all, i wouldn't recommend buying this.
Agreed. They dont look genuine at all and may potentially harm your wildfire.
I ordered one. I will tell you how it works after i will test it.
Cool. I was about to order one to test.
Can't wait for the little review
Sent from my HTC Wildfire
anyone find out if these things are any good?
$10 seems really cheap for a battery.
For a comparison, do you know if you can buy a new battery from HTC and how much they cost ?

hi I bought from ecell and it is good (3-4 days) original less then 2 days.
so no problems at all then?
edit: ecell dont sell the 2430mah batteries
WOW seems to be working.3-4 days instead of 1-2.Good but it could possibly harm our phone.
Usually the reason why certain items are cheap (especially on ebay) is because of its poor quality.
BUT, on the other hand, you cant always judge by comparing prices with big companies such as htc as once its in their possession its usually been through a few hands and they have to make up the extra costs aswell.
Therefore its usually cheaper because its coming direct from the manufacturer, or from a supplier directly linked to the manufacturer in the same country. And of course certain taxes can be avoided by marking the products as 'gifts' when shipping...
i've had my eye on a 3700mah (i think) battery and cover to accommodate the slightly bigger size, as im quite a heavy user and the current battery is lucky to last half a day. the size is a bit of a put off though so i might just get the next one down from that, instead.
Yeaa you're right.We usually pay for the name of the product.Sometimes no-names are on the same quality as those who sells big companies as HTC etc.
im still not too sure on this. But 2430mah in a thin battery?! Doesnt sound legit.
Anyone got the 2430mAH Battery and have some results for us ?
I received it yesterday. I charged it this morning and already it indicates 50% off. I will return it and ask for a refound.
Try clear battery stats first. Then reload. Phone Cant know the right capacity else

Has anyone come across this before? Any reviews? Is this the Slim one?
I have never heard of this, but it looks amazing! Thank you. I'm gonna ask the seller. Seeming that the description claims it to be a Lithium Polymer battery it is very likely that it is normal sized. In the past I searched around and never found a lithium polymer battery for the Galaxy phones. It would be really nice if all phones had high capacity lithium polymer batteries.
My question is that something for the 19000 battery wise is the same size as all other Galaxy 1 variants correct?

Yes, you are right. After some more research @Wikipedia, LiPoly Batteries can have high capacity and can be used safely provided that you use the original chargers and not the cheap Chinese crap. BLE is not needed for them . I might buy one soon, If i do, will update this thread. Wish me luck.

Well then best of luck to both of us I'm not sure why i couldn't remember at that moment, but any i9000 battery should fit the variants.
BTW guys, why buying from this seller when u have it on ebay.com a lot cheaper and with free delivery?

Oh wow. Thanks a lot. Much cheaper. Now I have to test. Just search for i9000 or Galaxy S 2450mah or 2430mah and find the correct one. This looks legit

Well ebay says he's got positive feedback so just keeping my fingers crossed.
Hi !
Any feedback about this battery ?
Did you received it in time ?
Is it really better than the 1500 or 1800mAh ?
Thank you
To good to be true I think
I'd also love a battery which claims what this one does at this price, but It seems to good to be true. A bit of Googling shows a review for this battery with 2/2 "average" reviews which show it did not perform as promised (but it did work). There are also some other review sites which say pretty much the same thing. (I'd love to post the URL but can't because I'm a noob. A search for B005O8S4V0 on amazon.co.uk will find this.
Also, I think that if this technology was legit Samsung would have shipped it with the unit itself !!
Pity, I was really hoping it would work. I hate it that all the aftermarket batteries I have purchased sucked compared to the original.

Yep i've finally bought a 1800mAh PolaCell battery. It seemed more secured to me.
Maybe i'm wrong (I hope for those who bought it) but as you said the 2430mha chinese one is too cheap to be true.
Lithium Ion is different to Lithium Polymer, the one on the link is a Lithium Polymer
More Details here

Basically, Lithium Polymer batteries can have the same size but higher capacity, so there is a good chance that the battery is real.
But again I haven't still bought it cause I am running on a tight budget, but I am planning to buy one when I am selling my phone so that I can buy an Galaxy S3.
That doesn't look like it could be a Li-Ion Polymer cell due to the rounded edge. Only a square edge or foil pack would mean it's a true prismatic cell which is the casing for Li-Ion Poly cells.
The 3.7V vs 3.6V already shows that most of these are using a technology better than just standard Li-Ion, so it wouldn't really be much of an improvement.
Different manufacturer use different materials for anode, cathode, and electrolyte and these Chinese companies use the cheapest ones. So you're either getting what you pay for or getting ripped off depending on how you look at the false advertising.
I heard this battery(same label/producer on other handsets) is very bad.
I think I grabbed the wrong one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/28086765575...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_3124wt_1163
It does look the same, but 2450. Interestingly it is made in Japan, not China. Here's the weight, plus the OEMs that I have for comparison:
32.3g OEM Captivate 1500mAh
34.3g Japan "Gold" 2450mAh
36.65g OEM Epic 1800mAh
So I was expecting it to come out around 1650mAh, but it gave me 1910 the first time. I'll use it for a few weeks and run another test. Not really sure what to expect though.
Edit: This battery is crap. 2nd run at 200mAh it failed at 4 hours, about 850mAh drained. Now it's hovering just over 3.5v, right over where the phone would shut down. Trying to get the rest out so I can cycle it again, but I think it will be getting a funeral tomorrow.
Been running the "2430mAh battery" for about a week now with Battery Monitor Widget. Estimated rating is ~1300 mAh. Not great, but still gets me through the day with light-moderate usage.
For $10 it was worth a shot. At least the battery isn't COMPLETE garbage. :S
I already have an 1800mah anker and it is working fine for around $10....I am getting an oem epic battery tomorrow hopefully and I just ordered this
http://www.amazon.com/Mugen-Extende...Z9TQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1338532343&sr=8-2
If they send a real mugen battery that works than I will be ecstatic.

Don't buy from that seller, seller1on1 did not ship a real mugen battery instead he shipped a cheap ass 3500mah chinese battery and door you can get on ebay for $8.
This has been the strangest battery. After the second cycle I got 2300mAh out of it, but the phone was randomly shutting off. It started behaving after that though.
From what I understand some of these no name batteries come from good manufacturers' fail bins. They sell them off cheap instead of dumping them in landfill. So if that is the case, it's kind of a gamble.

Hello,
I buy my gold battery from the webstore pixinf.com they are cheaper than ebay and have fast shipping. The battery work more than 2 times than original one.
They give 2 years warranty and the battery is made on japan. :victory:
Regards
I just got the gold battery from eBay. 2430MAH along with the battery charger for charging the battery externally. It was about $8.50 and comes within a week. Just search i9000 gold battery. I'm pretty sure I've got it calibrated. With light use I get up to 13 hours so far and up to 10 hours approximately with heavier use. Amazing buy so far
