HTC Thunderbolt Battery in Desire HD - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if the HTC Thunderbolt battery will work in the Desire HD once it's released ?
I was wondering this because the Thunderbolt has a 1400mAh battery compared to the desire hd's 1230 mAh one.
Both phones are nearly identical , so i was thinking it would work but i could be wrong

would like to know too

Interesting, someone reply with info!

any update ???

bump. that battery would be sweet

No, the design is different on the back unfortunately. The entire back of the phone comes off on the Thunderbolt.

That is true that the back is different but that doesnt mean that the battery doesnt fit in the DHD, i heard that the thunderbolt battery fits into the mytouch4g and the mytouch4g is just another version of the DHD. Can someone with a thunderbolt or a friend with a thunderbolt confirm that it doesnt fit in the DHD cuz the extended battery from sedio for the thunderbolt (1600 mah) would be great in the DHD

Why wouldn't sedio just release a DHD battery? :/

because DHD is not the "new & hot" item anymore and the battery drain is worse on the thunderbolt due to LTE

I dont know about thunderbolt but if you say mytouch 4g battery is same like thunderbolt, I can give the answer.
NO.
Mytouch 4g battery is not identical with desire hd. that's all
Even the HTC HD7 & Desire HD also looks the same, battery capacity is same (1230mAH) but it's NOT identical too. the connector is at the wrong side.
unless u say Inspire 4g then it's the same !!

Hmm. I would have thought that there would still be a market for an DHD battery. Weird.

MyTouch 4G battery compatibility

Dunno if this was posted before, but it seems the MyTouch 4G (HTC Glacier) uses the same battery as the Thunderbolt. I haven't tried it myself, but a lot of places are selling "Thunderbolt" batteries, when they're just MyTouch ones.
This is good to know if you're shopping around for an extra battery at a good price. I prefer an extra standard battery to the bulky extended one.
Thats a nice find, thanks I'm about to try with my wifes mt4g
Update:
It's alive, it works, you just have to insert it with htc logo facing in, but it works.

Yep when you do a search on Amazon for a battery for the Tbolt it states that it's for the mytouch also.
I opted for the extended battery. I would rather have a bigger battery in the phone than worry about carrying around another battery.
I posted some pics of the extended battery. Not much bigger than my DINC with the extended battery. But the TBolt is a bigger phone all together, But work the screen real estate.

[Q] HTC Sensation battery on HTC Desire?

Hi,
I'm wondering if the Sensation battery or EVO 3D battery is compatible with HTC Desire? Because sensation and evo 3d has approximately 1700mAh-1800mAh. There are a lot of battery for Desire and they claims that they are better than stock Desire 1400 mAh. But afaik they aren't as good enough as stock battery.
Would be good if it works. Is it same size desire?

I don't know, I saw the pictures only, and it looks same. Maybe someone has sensation or evo 3d here.
i would like to know this aswell.

We are talking about oem batteries here, whereas that site compares oem to the third party.
Seems like no one can test. Maybe i will get a sensation battery and try out

Just checked, it won't fit. Contact groups are on different sides.
Nice
Great...
aww man

Aww... Is there any higher capacity genuine htc battery from other phones (such as desire s) that could be used for desire?

I was searching recently for a high (or at least higher) capacity battery the other day.. Late last week I ended up ordering a 3000mAH battery, just waiting for it to arrive.
For people not wanting to have a thicker phone (thicker batteries come with new back covers to accommodate the size), there was one 1800mAH battery I found on eBay that fits without needing to have a larger back cover. Have a look here. Seller ships world-wide too...
I guess it will not work...bigger capacity = bigger size

You're referring to the battery in the link I posted...? I emailed the seller to ask the other day because they sell it without a back cover. The reply I got back stated that the battery is the same size as the original battery, so the original back cover will still fit.
Correction: The reply stated the battery is only a tiny bit thicker (I just went to double check) and doesn't need a new back cover. From what I can see looking at my phone, even if the battery is 3mm or 4mm thicker it should still fit without any problem.
Edit: More confirmation of the size... Same battery on OBOstore.com, in the description it says: "100% fit size (same as original)" as well as "100% Fit for original chargers and your devices". You have to love the Chinese, not only for their dirt cheap spare parts for everything under the sun, but also for their very special grammar...
...and half the battery capacity what they promised.

Never had any problems with the cheap, high capacity batteries for either my really old IMate JAM or my even older IMate SP5... Both of those were bought online and originated in China.
The SP5 battery was same size as original with a slightly higher capacity, went from 1050mAH to 1300mAH with the original case. It just made the phone slightly heavier, but not bigger.
I read in this thread that we can use Sensation batteries on DHD. Would be awesome if I could use Mugen's 1950mAh Sensation batteries man.

HTC Desire battery

The battery for Desire HD and Z might, but they have lower capacity then the battery for Desire. The battery for Desire S and Sensation will not fit as the connector is at the top of the battery instead of the side.

Thank you for your answer. Yes, they have lower capacity but it is possible to buy Anker battery for Desire HD which has 1600 mAh and should be of good quality. And after all, it is pretty cheap...
Since rooting my Desire and using a variety of roms the battery life has become better.
Definetly battery life is better on custom Gingerbread ROMs. But why not to make it even better with battery of higher capacity. Many times it happend I needed mobile internet on my Desire and its battery level was pretty low. Simply you have to think more about battery level so every additional drop of battery life is very useful.
yes, after root the desire the battery life is better as before

[Q] Li-ion or Li-pol in HTC One X?

Hey guys, what type of battery is in our device? Someone say Li-ion, somewhere is written Li-pol.. in the phone there is no info. So, what is correct?
Li-pol
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Lithium-Polymer is a type of Lithium-Ion battery. There is a Lithium-Polymer battery inside the One X even though the box and test menu says otherwise. It has to be a Lithium-Polymer battery anyway to fit in the One X and HTC have confirmed it as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592478
But I am from Europe - the Czech republic.. is possible that our HTC has another battery type?
Btw, I had HTC Evo 3D before One X.. so I guess Evo 3D was Li-ion.. what will be difference between Evo 3D Li-ion battery and One X Li-pol battery?

It had a Lithium-Polymer battery. Pretty much all modern cell phones use a Lithium-Polymer battery pack.

haha i got to pull off the gold sticker now
edit: mine doesnt say that.
Battery life is a pretty important feature of a phone, if HTC could have had double the capacity for just a couple of quid I'm sure they would have, but they didn't, suggesting that the cheap "gold" and double life batteries aren't what they suggest (and that's certainly borne out my my use of copy batteries.)
