Anyone find a high capacity battery they could recommend? Did you need a new back cover? If so where did you get it or did you just go without a back cover?

I was hoping to get a recommendation on one of the 2000mah batteries, but if I could win it cheaply, it'd be worth checking out. Maybe I'll buy one of those wall chargers too. I could easily carry the extra battery in my wallet.
Thanks!
I never saw a 2000mah battery. I want to let you know, don't expect what you see in the picture. Those 1500mah ones are probably unbranded. It doesn't make a difference, as long as they work, I guess.

Just won the auction and got them for 9.50 plus 4.99 shipping. The ones pictured appear unbranded as well. They don't say HTC. And if they aren't actually yellow, it doesn't matter. Until someone makes a clear back plate, no one will see.
Thanks again!!

I'm a lil weary of those cheap non branded extended life batteries. If you go on amazon and read some of those reviews the users complain about this batteries not working after a certain amount of recharge cycles. The best off brand to trust has been seidio. Other than that just go oem. With a price that low it sounds like you could end up spending another $9.50 in a couple more months. Now, I love my ebay but that sounds too suspect.

This is the seller's exact response when I asked him about returns.
'you can return it anytime if you done think the battery is what you exoected
but you will need to pay to ship it back
thank you'
I'm weary of buying them too, but he did say I can return 'anytime' and I plan on holding him to that word. If I get them, I'll test them with a voltmeter each week and ship them right back. Even if it's 6 months later haha.
Well I got them already... They seem to last longer than the stock battery. Who knows if it will last, but they are good now.
Glad I made the purchase.

How much longer we talking about? Just a couple hours?
Yeah... Just a couple hours. I'm not saying it is significantly better than OEM. I'm just saying it will work great as a backup. I also got a wall charger so one battery will be kept in my wallet as a backup and I will charge them both each night.

The reviews I've seen on these cheap batteries always seem to indicate that they aren't actually what they say they are rated, and testing shows that they don't last as long as the OEM batteries.
After a few days of use, I do not see much difference between stock 1200 and this 1700. Only payed 9.99 with free shipping, so not bad for a spare battery.

Don't believe the hype. It's pretty hard to make a battery with a higher capacity that is cheaper and is the same physical size. These batteries are compressed into these small packages and to increase the capacity without using more cells or larger cells, would constitute using more exotic materials, which would cost more. At best, these batteries are equal to OEM, but most are lower grade knock offs. The best application for any of these batteries is backup use
I bought 2 1500's for $20 off of Ebay.and yes i do see about about 2-3 difference with them.. no its not much of a difference but they do actually work.. so the hype is real..
i've always been wary of buying batteries, particularly laptop batteries, online.
ie safety/actual capacity/quality
is there a similar issue for phone batteries?
Like the title says, just wondering what the highest capacity battery is that doesn't require you to extend the size of the phone by replacing the battery cover.

Also do these batteries have to be wall charged like some I've heard of?
Check out http://batteryboss.org/. There are some 2000mAhs out there that are actually 1100s.
These are the batteries that I use. I have a few, and I have bought them for my friends. I have found them to be the best battery that fits under the stock door. They do last a fair amount longer than the stock batteries.

I'm glad to hear that. I just ordered those yesterday. I wasn't too sure about getting those Chinese batteries, but I figured I couldn't really go wrong at 16 bucks for 2 batteries and an external charger.
Sent from my HTC EVO 4G with Tapatalk
So if it comes with a quick charger, does that mean the battery shouldn't be charged while inside the phone or is it just a convenience thing?
It's much more convenient to use that charger, and plus it FULLY charges the battery. I never plug my phone in, I just swap fully charged batteries every morning.
Somehow when I see a $16 price tag for 2x2000Mah batteries + charger, a mental image of an exploded shrapnel piercing a Chinese man's carotid artery comes to mind.

Somehow when I see a $70 dollar price tag for a battery i see a greedy little monopoly man wiping his ass with $100 bills. Batteries are dirt cheap to manufacture, we only pay exorbitant amounts for them because Americans are stupid. Same reason why companies like Monster Cable are still in business. "If it costs more it MUST be better!"

Yep. If you don't already have a wall charger I recommend getting the set I linked. That charger is key.
The stock battery as far as I'm aware of is the best battery for the size. All those higher rated ones, are liez.
the best battery that doesn't require you to change the cover is the stock red oem battery the phone comes with. check batteryboss.org for proof. if you could get more juice out of the same size htc would of done that.

Sorry to say, but you're wrong. The galilio batteries that I linked last noticeably longer than the stock red batteries. I have 2 of the stock ones and I don't use them at all because the galilios are better. Check this thread out, dude tested them and the 1800mah ones from galilio tested higher capacity than the oem batteries, over 100mah more. Sure they aren't true 1800 and the 2000s arent true 2000 but who cares? They are dirt cheap and DO perform better than the stock battery.

Because, you can keep a charged spare. Plus as I said before, the dock chargers fully charge the battery so you don't have to deal with the EVOs finicky charging method.
I just ordered mine as well. If I can get through the day with medium to heavy use on these I will be happy. I love my extended battery would would really rather have a case on my phone

Great question. I'm wondering the same thing.
I bought this one. I had to wait a month for it since is came from Hong Kong. I can get ~16 hours running the screen at 80% brightness, texting alot, 3g radio always on, constantly checking email. No complaints other than the time it took to ship.

I'm pleasantly surprised, I notice a definite difference in battery life and the wall charger is a bonus. For the price it's hard to beat and delivery was within a week.

Personally I have found these batteries no better than the stock htc red. With juice defender I get fair batt life with either...10-16 hours or so. I do find the wall charger useful as the battery never gets fully charged when charging in the phone.
There are no slim batteries that are better than stock, the only thing to increase your battery is to add a few millimeters oh my god, to your phone and get a 3500 you won't be disappointed, and yes like someone already said, use the search button next time this must be my like 6th time answering this question muskeg let alone if someone else did too, which I feel has happened too

I have the 2000mah battery and its marginally better than my OEM battery.
The Seidio stock size extended battery sucks. Doesn't even charge past 90% anymore, and I didn't really notice a difference.

It may not be Seidios, but for that kind of money... who cares?
I hope this helps people out there...

True, but the reason why I posted this is because you are buying this from Amazon and not from some other place in Hong Kong via eBay (read faster shipping.... I am getting mine in 4 days as opposed to 2 weeks+ from most vendors in Asia on eBay). Plus, I tend to like Amazon's customer protection a bit better than eBay's tbh.
You are correct also in the fact that there is the thread here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857957), which talks about the 3500 mAh batteries (as well as a few others) but this one has digressed into a heated debate as to why Seidio wants to profit out of batteries, so posting in there would have been kinda useless.
Truth be told, I am not asking a question about the battery (which is the case for most of the threads that you are referring to), and if I would have had a question, I would have searched for an answer as I always do. I am announcing something that I hadn't seen posted here, which is special (limited time) price for a high capacity battery from a very much trusted online seller. But hey... what do I know... I am only one of the Site's admins...
PS. Next time, please don't flame.

I have not gotten this yet, but the back covers for the 3500 mAh batteries I have seen pics of are not that much bigger... then again, until I don't see one live, I will not trust pics. More than likely, your current case will not work though as the battery is considerably larger to begin with.
Hope this helps.

i'm assuming this means that after you fully charge it...DO NOT put it back on a charger until it is pretty much dead?? Then proceed to charging it back to full??? I would like clarity on this as my battery will be arriving today (which I bought off ebay for $11 from a retailer in Chicago) and it didn't mention that in the listing.
Ceeb thanks for asking the question I was going to ask. As normally I do not fully discharge my battery. But I am curious to hear why. Also everyone is saying use an external charger I have been using my old tp2 for that would that work as well with this battety?
Thunder is the cheap hdmi cable an amazon brand? I bought 3 amazon brand ones for my tuner, blu-ray and tv they worked better then the 60 buck one I had. And they were like 8 bucks.

Glad you posted this.. Keeps me from having to make my own thread... Both my friend and I both purchased this battery.. And we both agree its awesome! Was $13 shipped when we got it. Battery lasts all day no problem, especially once I put Warm2.2 with an SBC undervolting kernel. Cover fits as good as stock and doesn't look obnoxious like the Seidio. It is still bulky, but not too bad.
As far as the charging/draining debate... I did 4 cycles from full to completely drained, and my friend did not (just topped off like normal). I have to say our batteries perform the same. So I'm not sure the charging/draining is necessary. I still say it can't hurt, so I would still do it. As far as the using an external charger, I would say that also isn't necessary. Difficult to get the extended to 100% with the stock ROM, because the phone stops charging once it hits 100% and then charges back up when it drops to 90% (as far as I know). So for that reason, the battery drops from 100% to 92% or so pretty quickly, but then drains slow after that. As I said, I switched to an SBC Kernel and it goes all the way to 100% (4.2Volts) and stays there. Then actually stays at the upper range for a long time, effectively giving you your 8% back.
Overall, this battery is awesome... Highly recommend!
this is the same as china batt i bought from ebay. been using mine for 4 mos now and its still doing good. one full charge lasts like 1 day and 15 hours with 6-7 hours wake time.
I really do not want to mod this phone I have the Sprint warrenty. So it looks like it will still charge so I am excited for days I go and use it for social media pictures, and series radio streaming. Thought I have to figure out my msl so I can fix the streaming stuff.

but what can you lose? lol
Seems to me that if the larger aftermarket brands have trouble meeting the stated mAh rating on their batteries, what more of unbranded ones that goes for an even lower value?

Buy 2 stock batteries and solder them together. Works great.
3500 real mah. I didn't think the 2000 extended batteries would fit under the cover from the Hyperion I had here. I agree though, if I can solder it up in an evening, Samsung certainly could work up something.
hopefully more phones in the future will be like the razr and give us a factory extended battery closer to 3000mah.
Razr maxx when I had it for a week was sick! Hard use all day, charged every other day, seriously insane battery life. If that phone ever gets bootloader unlocked, I would be all over it again.

Have you done this solder thing? Any tips?
if you look at the battery in the phone you can see that there is some space at the top of each terminal, use this space to solder a fine piece of copper wire to a second battery. make sure to solder the batteries in parallel, positive to positive and negative to negative, to retain the same voltage.
i remember taking apart a so called 3500mah battery from ebay and they were just two cheap 1500mah batteries tapped together. Apparently in china 1500X2 is 3500.
Why does everyone want extended batteries? 99% of people have access to a power cord most of the day and just don't need it. Granted, I'm new to the phone, but I really hope I don't need to carry around a huge battery or two. Personally I'd rather charge it more often. Just my own opinion.

Even If it's 1500 that's still 3000mah for less than $10. Pretty good deal.

Even the Samsung batteries lose their capacity over time.
