I just bought the 2x 1500mah with charger batteries from ebay, and I don't get battery swapping. Every time I switc, do I have to reset battery stats or something in order to get accurate readings? Also, will the batteries be significantly damaged if I leave them charging with the charger for say, 3 months?

Why would you want to charge your battery for three months? I think everyone knows that you should never charge a battery more than 11 weeks and six days.

i think you're forgettting 23 hours and 59 minutes! but i'll leave it plugged in so i can grab a fully charged one whenever i need a battery
I swap batteries 3x a day, never goes longer than 12 hours..

The battery will retain the full charge for a long long time. I also keep a spare battery stashed and when I've have to use one, they were always either right at 100% or just a little below.
This is very easy to test. Just unplug it. In a few weeks put it in your phone. You'll see tht it kept its charge. They also last longer because there is no initial 5-10% drop.
They can last longer but if I'm heavily using them I only get about 8. They DO however always beat my stock htc one. That is always the quickest to die. I need a better way to save battery power I use juice defender and autostarts and setcpu.

so for swapping batteries, do i just power down and put the other one in? because i heard you have to reset battery stats or else battery percentages will be inaccurate
I've swapped batteries without wiping battery stats, no terrible repercussions here. I usually wipe when I switch from 1500mah battery to 3500 but not when I go back, no problems so far

I do wish there was a way to swap batteries, with phone plugged in, without powering down/rebooting.

Anyone know, is it possible that my cheap ebay extended battery causes my phone to lag? Is it possible that the battery doesn't respond well to a spike in amp draw? I swear my phone hangs & slows down more when using this battery. I need to do more testing. Is my hypothesis feasible, or is it all in my head?

I'm not up-to-date on battery etiquette, so thought I would check with you chaps. I should be picking my One X up from Carphone Warehouse tomorrow or Wed, but wanted to know whether it was considered better to charge immediately, or to use the battery until the phone dies, then charge fully, or some other third option. Want to make sure I get the best out of the battery, obviously.
Thanks!

What you really want to do is condition your battery. You don't need to do it immediately but in the first week or so of having the phone. By conditioning, I mean... Charging it until it's full, then using it until its fully discharged, then charging it again. Repeat this cycle ("fully discharged when charging") for 3 to 4 times... after that, you'll notice that your battery lasts longer than usual. It's what I've done with all my phones, seemed to work pretty good.

But were you using Lithium-Ion batteries? From what I have heard, completely depleting the power of the battery actually damages its health.

A lot of the time android will shut down just before your battery is 100% empty, you will find if you try to turn your phone on after its shut down it will still boot and run for 15 - 30 mins, depending on battery age and condition ofcorse. And if you keep on turning on the phone when its battery is very low/empty you will then start to damage it.

Some one posted this website before:

It also has a nice table about how to look after your battery:
http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_charge_when_to_charge_table
How to Prime Batteries
...Rechargeable batteries may not deliver their full rated capacity when new and will require formatting. While this applies to most battery systems, manufacturers of lithium-ion batteries disagree. They say that Li-ion is ready at birth and does not need priming. Although this may be true, users have reported some capacity gains by cycling these batteries after long storage....

Charging the battery
Before you turn on and start using HTC One X, it is recommended that you charge the battery.
Only the power adapter and USB Cable provided in the box must be used to charge the battery.

However there seems to be a common agreement that over the first week / two weeks of usage the battery will improve...
Last quote from MaDaCo review comments from Paul when asked how does he condition his battery:
I don't really condition it tbh, I just find it takes a few charges to get 'up to speed'.

Conditioning the battery was needed with old style batteries.. new Li-xxx batteries don't need one.. and what does an extra 30mins actually mean to you ...
now you can buy original replacement batteries for 20-30$, so if it loses it's capacity after some time you can easily buy new one...

I'd use the battery as soon as you get it until completely drained.
Then perform a full battery charge without use, its best to do this to ensure a full 0%-100% charge.

Has anyone got one of these, would really like to know if they will be worth the hassle of getting, if so how much would it give extra ?
This Link is for the official Veho website:
http://www.veho-uk.com/main/shop.aspx?category=PEBSS
those are rated at 2200mah, with loss for charging and heat i'd assume you'd get somewhere around half a charge.
better to just get something like this

which can get you 2-3 full charges
To be honest am not looking at 2-3 chargers, I just need something that will give my battery more power so can watch football live when out and to play games, as I charge my phone every night ...
I get home from work with about 30% remaining but am curious about playing games etc just incase battery dies.... Was alright on 1.26 but since updating to 1.28 battery seems to have gone worse

Our battery is 1800mah and this is 2200mah so it should give it one full charge and a bit but in reality these batteries are usually 70% to 90% of their stated amount so expect one full charge. Its a bit pricey for 2200mah though, then again its very portable, let us know how it goes if you decide to get it
I'm thinking about this one, but I'm concerned about charging at non stock voltages/currents. Will charging at 5.2V damage the phone? What about devices that feed more than 1000mA?

This one looks a little too good to be true, 4000mah in such a small size, but it should charge our device just fine the charger supplied with our phone says it has a 1A output which is equal to the 1000ma supplied by this battery pack. If the device feeds more than 1000ma the phone will simply charge faster. The only difference is the charger supplied with the one x states an output of 5v while this one says 5.2v but I doubt this matters. I'd go with the first one .

I believe that our phone is limited to 1A charge so anything over that is simple ignored, my friend has got 5000 mah called powerbank he is letting me borrow it to try out seems pretty good so far.

My mistake, my old phone used to charge faster with a more powerful charger.
I have one of these.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Trent-I...MP50/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1336512020&sr=8-2
Bought it 18 months back for my DHD as I go to a lot of music festivals and I didnt want to pay to charge my phone up. I used it when I bought it from a full charge on my DHD and I got 13 full charges out of the thing. And lasts a full week when camping (as I charge my ipod too)
A load of my friends have actually gone out and bought them as a result of seeing and using mine. Not that big or heavy and great for use on planes as well! Has an autoshut off also so when the phone stops drawing power the battery pack shuts down to avoid draining itself.

I bought Astro 3 two days ago.
I can say that it is more than expected. It charges my HOX very fast and I feel that my HOX battery life is much better now.
I am heavy user so screen on time was 3 hours maximum before Astro. Now it stays about 5 hours with heavy usage.
I strongly recommend this great product.

It won't make any difference; the phone charges at ≈800 mA.
So even if we use a 2A charger the phone wont take more than 800mA ?
Exactly. I think it's overheating protection.
these things are amazing! no more do i have to worry about htc one x battery, all i do is charge it up, 1amp at 5voltes or 2 amp at 5 volts, doesnt get any better than that! it also charges up other phones as well!

it took under 2 hours to charge, you can charge at 1amp 5v or 2amp 5v, obviously 1amp 5v is what you use for the one x, i dont know the exact time as i left my phone to it, then came back and it was done 100%

I agree, having had the Philips Power2Go SCE7640 for the last 3 years or so, it's been great for long-haul journeys, not having to worry about finding somewhere to charge the phone.
is this claimed 10,000mah capacity for real??
yep, the thing takes 16 hours to charge fully, but it will charge my phone about 8 times over, its not that chunky, here is a pic, i can fit it in my pocket, keep it in my car, or in my shoulder bag, it goes everywhere with me

We can’t always trust specs when it comes to cheap no-name batteries and battery packs on eBay. If you already have it can you do some testing and confirm that it charges at 1A (i.e: can fully charge from a low battery level in 3hrs) and that it can charge the phone at least 4 times from a single charge ?
I'm more concerned about the charging speed than the actual capacity. I'd be happy with 5000mAh pack if it can charge as quickly as an AC adapter.

well the first 2 times you have to charge for 20 hours, after that its up to you, its a lion battery high quality, I will test this over the next few days and confirm how many charges I get on my htc one x and s3 so I will know for sure, if it charges from dead at least 5 times then it is acurate and true,

Your assumptions are incorrect unfortunately....
its 10000mah at 3.7v
most of our devices are 5v like the htc one x....
This is the same for all batteries that I have seen, so even my 5000mah battery will only charge the phone maybe twice.....
10000mah am guessing about 3.5 times.... take in other aspects like losing power through heat and the quality of the cable and connectors too......

Micro USB port uses 5v to charge, but that is not the voltage of the battery. Most mobile phone batteries are 3.7v including HTC One X. Therefore 10,000mAh @ 3.7v ~= 5.5 times the One X battery's capacity

hi there guys,i got a good 3 full charges and a half out of it, seems pretty decent and plenty of juice keeps my one x going, kept in the car the last few days and been gaming alot on my one x, here is a pic, its about double the thickness of the one x, it took under 2 hours to charge, you can charge at 1amp 5v or 2amp 5v, obviously 1amp 5v is what you use for the one x, i dont know the exact time as i left my phone to it, then came back and it was done 100%
first 2 charges of the battery pack take 20 hours at 1amp 5v, then after that u are sorted

I was right
Basically my 5000mAh rated device will get less than 2 full charges for the HOX....
I paid about this much for mine about 2 years ago, but won't be spending more money as I only use it now and again on holidays.
yep is handy to have around if you are away for a bit, just remember use 1amp 5v charging usb port, not the 2amp, but im pretty sure the htc one x prevents over current anyway,, 2 amp is for tablets/laptops etc.
Just WTF. 10000 mah?! U crazy
