Highest capacity battery to fit with stock door? - EVO 4G Accessories

I really want the max power but the main reason is I still want to use the stock battery door. I need it to fit on my bike mount and if it's any thicker it won't fit. A quick search came up with this.

I've seen allot of different battery threads but most are for thicker extended. I'll probably get one of those too but for now I need something stock sized with the most battery life.

if you can wait, I'd get the ones off ebay. They are cheaper and last for quite a while. Galileo ones

That's what I was thinking ^
And I don't think there are any batteries that have more mah's then stock. They're all lying. I have galilios and they claim 2000 mah but I read online they're actually 1300 which is less then stock.
But they make life so much easier and better. So don't worry about what mah they are as long as they come with a extended charger. You'll be happily fine
Gimme a couple a days to come up with a new sig that is cool.

I just bought the one posted in this link here. They havent arrived yet but are these ones suppose to be the real deal? Actual 1900. They are actual HTC batterys so they probably are hopefully?
Edit- i read all the reviews ( well 20-30 ) of them and it seems its a 75% chance they are good batterys. Other 25% is dead on arrival. Wont receive 2 batterys or that the batterys stop holding a charge after just 2-3 months. Well see! Oh they arnt HTC actual brand. My bad!

I bought some off eBay that were HTC branded 1800 mAh that fit perfect with the stock cover. Not a huge difference, but it was worth it. I've had them for about 5 months now and they're both still going strong.

Mugen 3200mAh battery for TP2 works in EVO

In case you need an extended battery now, I can report success with a Mugen 3200mAh unit that was intended for a Sprint Touch Pro 2. It cost $70 or 80 when I bought it around Christmas time from an eBay vendor (couldn't find it anywhere else online). Turns out the person I got it for had a Touch Pro 1 and this battery was not compatible so it's been sitting around the house ever since. I just popped it into my EVO 4G and it works perfectly as far as I can tell. Boots up normally and is charging as expected. Of course the back plate does not fit over the fat battery so I left that off and replaced the jelly case which stretches over the whole thing well enough.

Hero batteries work also.. a lot of HTC phone's use the same batteries. I have like 4 batteries for my evo lol
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280492889203&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
I bought these a while back.. worked great in my hero and work just as good in my evo. Plus now I have a standalone wall-charger. Took about a week or so to get here since its coming from Hong Kong.. But it was well worth the ~$10 for 2 batteries and a charger..
ok, i stole its soul for you.
well im glad i order mine from seidio since it comes with the back case but this is good info so i can pass my oem battery to my wife for hero hero with weak battery life
Lol. Nice evo . It's the humpback of xda.
Sent from my Evo 4G
that is disgusting! but more power to you hahaha...lets hope seidio lets you buy just the ext battery cover
oh sweet mother of god i would feel all grossed out if i tried to handle my phone and it was all squishy at the parts that aren't touching the battery or the frame...
How's the battery life with the 3200? After doing some battery life tweaks and mods mine seems to almost be sufficent with the stocker, but it can always use some improvement.
If you don't mind sacrificing the case, I would try cutting a rectangle in it that would leave the protruding part of the battery exposed and let the case hug the phone the way its supposed to. If you cut it just right, the batt should stay in place since it looks like it has a bit of an edge for the case to grip on to.
I'M starting think I should just cancel my order for the 3500 battery and get me 2 1500. What do you guys think?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I'm using the battery from my tp2 as a spare, and carry it in the smaller pocket in my jeans,i don't even feel it there sometimes. With battery tweaks and charging it in my car (usually around 30 min at a time), I only have to occasionally change to the 2nd battery. If you are sensitive to bulk, then go for 2 batteries to split the load, otherwise a bigger battery is more convenient.

Given some of the results from BatteryBoss, I'd say that the battery isn't going to perform at a full 3500mAh. It will still be more than an OEM battery, sure, but I couldn't justify doubling the size of the phone to put it in. You might be better off getting another OEM battery, HTC seems to give about 99% of what they say.
if that site batteryboss is accurate then Mugen's batteries are crap. twice the size for 50% more juice. however, some anecdotal evidence to the contrary: after buying the wrong one, i bought another Mugen extended battery that does work for the TP1 and the recipient is very happy with it. reports that the 3200mAh it lasts about twice as long as the OEM battery.
probably smart to just get another HTC 1500mAh. after the latest update battery drain is much less of an issue anyway.
So can I just go in to a sprint store and ask for a hero battery For free?

The batteries + charger that was listed earlier in this thread work GREAT I've been using them for a few days now great freaking deal ($10 shippped)
Anyone know if the Tilt battery here will fit the Evo with a modified case / back plate? http://www.amazon.com/HTC-Extended-Li-Ion-Battery-RHOD170/dp/B002Y24MJ2
I know Seidio makes a modified back plate that looks like it would fit this and according to battery boss this is the gold standard of extended batteries.
Also confirmed, the Mugen 4500mAh battery for Sprint Touch Pro 2 works in the Evo as expected. It's very... thick. About as thick as the Evo with a jelly sleeve on. Put together it's like the Evo has it's own little podium to stand on.
Assuming batteryboss tests are accurate then true capacity is closer to 75% or ~3375mAh. Main purpose for me is a power supply that can run GPS tracking apps like Cardio Trainer all day uninterrupted. Thickness not an issue since the whole package is tucked away in a Camelback.
Got it on eBay, I don't know where else to find them. Mugen is OOS and ridiculously expensive anyway. An alternative would be an external battery pack that supplies power through a USB port, then cable it to Evo.

Seidio Batteries

Is it just me or is something fishy going on...
Example:
DINC Battery 1750 mAh small battery fits stock phone.
http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/basi17hhrv.htm
TBolt Battery 1600 mAh small battery fits stock phone.
http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/basi16htmec.htm
Both batteries are the same size and the only difference is contact placement.
I think there is some false advertisement going on because they are calming one is 1600 mAh and the other is 1750 mAh... If the DINC battery is truthfully a 1750 mAh why not just sell it for the TBolt with the different contact placement?

I don't trust mah ratings from aftermarket batteries. They are usually inflated numbers and frankly not worth the $25 increase over a stock battery just to gain an extra 200 mah. For the price of one of sedio's extended batteries you could buy two stock batteries. Just something to think about.
I got one and honestly it might be worse

I bought one and will let you guys know how it goes. A coworker of mine has been searching, and I guess a bunch of people on Droidforums have had great success (30+ hours with moderate-heavy usage). I just got mine fully charged last night, so I will let you know after I run it out.
good im waiting for the same battery anything can be better than the current battery
i just got my new 1600 battery.
quick question should i kill the battery first then charge it, or should i charge it right away.
typically say charge first, over charge, after it's full bump it and let it sit for 2 more hours. So the battery companies say.
ok il definitely do that
ever since i was little i always have killed the battery to 0 then charged it fully
just something someone told me as a kid, but i didn't know if it applied to new better phones
ordered one of the 1600 batteries also from amazon, will let you know how it goes when i get my thunderbolt and this battery from amazon

If it is a li-ion battery discharging it all the way to 0 isn't a good thing.
FYI Dinc batteries are physically larger than mytouch4g/tbolt batteries. Hence the bigger maH ratings.

Normal Size Extended Battery Thunderbolt

So i found this NORMAL sized extended battery on ebay. It has 1700mah opposed to the 1400 mah the factory one has. I have the verizon extended battery and it works great but, IT IS HUGE and there are no decent cases. So for $15 bucks i gave it a shot. When i get it ill let you know if the 300mah makes a difference.

If I am not mistaken...there are threads on this battery and some people didn't find that much of a difference....but each phone is different..
I have the extended battery.....I have a silicone skin that I cut to fit the extended batter cover and then I bought a holster for it...works AWESOME
I didn't see a thread for this specific battery. I cut the case also, and it falls off every time i put it in my pocket drives me crazy lol. Something has to give a 2in thick phone doesn't do it for me. Plus that battery is heavy. So lets see how this cheap battery does
There's a thread somewhere about an independent test from "battery man" or something of the like.
He's stated that these batteries are often rated higher than whey they actually are, like 1700 actually being a 14 something. I'll see if I can find it. It was an interesting read.

It's not a 1700 mAh battery. It's a battery with a 1700 mAh sticker on it. With all the complaints about battery life, and the rumors that the TB was delayed while they worked to improve it, HTC would have gone with a higher capacity battery if one were available in a suitable size.
I got a couple of "1500 mAh" batteries and a charger from Hong Kong for $9 from ebay. They seem to work about the same as the OEM, enough to get me through a day (no 4G here, yet).
Some others had purchased these. If you run Battery Monitor Widget, it tells you how many mAh your battery is, it reports the correct 2750 for my extended, but on these 1700's it reported 1350.
I just need to come out and say it. A battery is a battery, you can't get a huge amount more of mah out of a battery that is the same size. There is no amazing battery that can hold 30% more energy and be the same size. You can increase capacity by taking out circuits, thinning the wall, and optimizing space in the battery but you can't make it tons higher. These batteries promoting themselves and so much more charge in the same package are a scam.
I've been posting on threads on these "1700mAh" batteries because I dislike the company that makes these ads. Its false advertising.
The story is that the seller already had "1500mAh" batteries on Amazon for the MyTouch 4G. Then when the TB came out he listed them on Amazon for the TB advertising them as 1500mAh. A week later he raised the price from $35ish to $50ish for 2 batteries and changed the title to state that its a 1700mAh battery.
For a short period of time people purchased this "1700mAh" battery for the TB. When they received it the sticker still stated 1500mAh. Then later people started getting the batteries with the stickers saying "1700mAh"
Summary: False advertising. Do not buy. Exactly the same as the $3-5 eBay batteries, so SAVE YOUR MONEY

No one is being negative. They're just trying to let you know that you're getting scammed. Even if it was actually 1700 mah you'd get what, a extra hour out of it?

There's a setting where you can change the capacity. My stock battery read 1350 also.
With that said, I bought these 1700 mah batteries and they are worse than stock. I guess it's a decent price for two extra batteries and a charger, but they suck. They dont extend anything.
i have tried this battery, it is the same, if not worse then the OEM battery.
I bought two of these 1700 mah batteries with a charger a few days ago. I only paid about $26 after shipping so we'll see how well they do. I'm not expecting miracles, I just need one to leave at the office and one for home. If my battery dies, I can still use my phone.

you would probably be better off just flashing a kernel/rom that isn't all bloated and is more energy efficient. Ever since flashing the perfect storm rom my battery life was better. Flashed CM7 when the prealpha came out and its even better.
I'm on the Twisted Sense rom with the bamf_4.3b kernel. I have no complaints with the rom or kernel. My battery drain comes from me never putting the phone down.

My extended batteries came in yesterday. I charged them and carried one today. My phone had drained by about 2:00 pm so I popped in one of my new ones. It's 8:30 and I'm at 69%. I wont say that I'm getting fantastic battery life, but it's fair. I did use navigation and I browsed the web a bit. After around 5 pm, I was on wifi so I'm sure that helped. For $26, I don't think I made a bad deal.

Well I have looked around for betteries for sometime and the only thing they offer for the evo is 1500 & 1800 in the standard size. I had heard tales of a 2000 or 2200 in the standard size but have not been able to find one. I got a 3500 close to the end of 2011 and used it for 4 months an twrp 2.0 bricked my phone. Then 6 months later I got another evo and have been using that same 3500 battery and it is super great. With the right setup I can go around 3 days on a charge. Whatever you do dont buy one of those cheap china batteries. I got one for $4 off ebay and it was the 1800 and cant get more than 12-16 hrs from it with the same setup.

same here no back on phone. one of these days i just might get an extended battery case. most of the suck but are better than none plus it will keep the back door on since i have no clips left. i have an otter box commuter for the standard battery but that battery sucks so bad i rarely use it.
I have an extended back around here somewhere. If I find it, it's yours. But can either of you comment on Anker 1800? I don't want the huge battery again. But I need something more reliable than the paper weight I have in here now

I'm using a Sedio 1750 right now, and it's obviously nothing like a 3500 maH, but in how I have very little running in the background, 3G off unless I need it (Like anyone ever needs slower-than-molasses-running-uphill-in-a-down-draft speeds), I easily get through the day with it with normal use and come home at about 45% or so.
One thing, that over-sized battery really doesn't take long to get used to ang it's design makes it actually easier and more comfortable to hold one to
Anker 1700, cheap, exceeds expectations.

[Q] Buying new extended battery

I'm thinking of buying a bigger battery for my GNex for better battery life.
I found a normal sized one of 2450MAh (http://dx.com/p/replacement-3-7v-2450mah-li-ion-battery-for-samsung-galaxy-nexus-i9250-golden-215299)
and one that is 3800MAh (http://dx.com/p/replacement-3-7v-38...e-for-samsung-galaxy-nexus-prime-i9250-127595) but heavier, and bigger is size such that it needs a different cover (that comes with it).
What are you guy's thoughts on it? Forget the price, is the extra weight and bulkier phone worth the 3800MAh? Or should I go for 2450MAh? Perhaps I should just stick to the stock battery that came with it? Please give your opinions and reason why.
Cheers
I think you should stick with stock. If you play around a bit you van get a full day out of the battery. That's pretty decent for a smartphone. With the stock battery your phone stays slim and light. If you do want a extended battery I should go with the 2450 mah. Than you have a good balance between battery life and weight. 3800 mah seems too over the top to me.

I guess €13 is cheap spread over 6 months, but there that's not all there is to it right? The 3800 needs a different cover, so no more casing will fit on the phone isn't it? There is the hassle of having to order a battery from overseas every 6 months, and not to forget, the phone will become bulkier, heavier and uglier :/
If the 3800 battery degrades that fast (is this confirmed?), does the 2450 too?

I can only last a day with stock battery with light use (GSM version). Otherwise I also have to charge it 2/3 times a day with heavy use. That's why I'm looking into these batteries.
A noob question. Does "extended battery" always mean you need a different back cover because of it's increased thickness? I know it's the case for the 3800, but also for the 2450???

well the 3800 is thicker than 2450 so it will need a bigger case
I once got 6hrs of screen-on time with a Seidio 3800MaH battery. I kid you not.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
6 hours screen-on from 3800? With what connectivity settings turned on?
I kind of found the answers to my own questions. 2450 needs a new cover too, because it is slightly thicker than the stock battery. Every battery that has a different thickness need a special cover for it.
With different size covers, you need different casing too. While I found nice casings for 3700-3900 type covers, and quite nice casings for 2000-2500 type covers, I've seen almost nothing but complains about the batteries themselves. Not deliveries the promised MAh (from the start) or performance degrading very fast are very common complains. Some even talk of overheating, and ofcourse many don't support NFC (which I don't use).
I can't trust the battery will do what it says it will do anymore :/ I'll stick with the stock OEM battery. I'm now considering buying a power bank/portable battery charger. In a way it also gives me longer battery life - when I want/need it. Plus side is also that others can make use of it too.
Oh, and just for the hell of it. Check out this monster extended battery people: http://www.amazon.com/ZeroLemon-Ext...=1-1&keywords=samsung+galaxy+nexus+zero+lemon It's the only extended battery I've found so far that I consider buying. Very good (and many) reviews too. *EDIT* It's only for the LTE Nexus, not GSM... */EDIT* But it's price is a little high for me...
It was quite impressive actually.
I had the used the phone particularly heavily that day, and suffice to say, I was quite.. Well, impressed.

Appearantly not all Nexus batteries are the same? I'm using the GSM Nexus. Tell me if I understand this correctly, but CDMA Nexus is from Verizon, and LTE Nexus is from Sprint, and both are not GSM devices, meaning their battery (LxW dimensions) are not the same? How about these Nexus from T-mobile? Are they GSM?
Meh for me the bulky back of the phone doesn't matter. It's not like you're looking at it all the time.

I don't care much about the look either, but the weight, size, and especially difficulty in finding a good case for it, I do care about.
And external battery (power bank) is cheaper for the amount of MAh you get, gets to much higher amount of MAh (10000MAh is quite common), can charge any devices (that need 1A or 2A input to charge) and mutiple devices simultaneously (unless you got a real cheap one). So for me I'm sticking with the power bank. A cheap one like this one can already completely charge your nexus from 0: http://dx.com/p/swpkpower-a22620-rechargeable-2600mah-mobile-power-bank-w-aroma-white-228492
