[Q] Best battery besides the stock one. - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to buy another battery with higher maH for my Desire HD. So far I've been able to find 1500, 1600 and 1800 maH batteries. But do these really work better than stock battery? If there is one, please let me know the brand to go for. Thanks.
I am sorry for having this posted here. I should have done that in accessories. Sorry.

I have the 1600mah on DHD and its the same...
Like original 12xx..
Maiby one hour more..
Sorry for my english :S

The batteries that are legit are the 1230mAh stock HTC replacement battery, 1230mAh OEM battery, 1300 Anker battery, 1500 MUGEN Power battery and some other trusted brand. Other than that are either fake or low quality built. You can also use the 1800mAh Sensation/Evo3D battery mod in the Accessories thread.

Mugen
Desire S • Fallout V2.0.0 • xda premium

some batteries can make power worse and system has his own capabilites and forcing it to use more power than it can iy will damage the power of ur device

ANKER 1600mah works great and much longer

[Q] Good replacement battery for DHD?

Has anybody tried this one?
Search for "2430MAH HIGH CAPACITY BAS470 GOLD BATTERY FOR DESIRE HD" on ebay.
Any good suggestions for replacement battery?
I have just bought this one:
Andida Battery For HTC Desire HD Ace 1800Mah
Didn't know there also where 2430Mah ones
These high capacity batteries are all BS. It's not possible to fit that much extra capacity in a battery of the same size. Very few of these third party batteries are from reputable companies and safe to use. All of them are around the same capacity as the original stock battery. There's a 1500 mAh battery by Mugen which is the max you get I guess. These 'super high capacity' batteries are actually the same capacity as the stock one or probabaly a little more. You won't notice a dramatic increase in battery life as you expect, and sometimes they have worse battery life than the stock battery.

+1 on the high capacities being BS. I got a replacement 1600mAh battery for $6.99 delivered off eBay and it works fine but doesn't hold a charge much longer if at all than my 1230mAh stock battery.

3500/3600mah battery worth it?

Hey guys, I'm getting horrendous battery life with the stock battery because my mom (who had the phone before me) misused it a lot. So I'm looking to buy an extended battery, and one that is cheap too. So thanks in advance!
Btw: I'm running Sense 4.0 senswich Rom on my g2

a battery that size will probably change your phone, bigger isnt always better but if you dont mind go for it. there are plenty of cheap oem batts and aftermarket ones that work great. also you can use htc batteries from different phones. there are i beleive two that work in ours that bump it up to 1450 or 1500 mah
personally im fine with the oem batteries, moderate user, overclocked to 1ghz, all the standard batt saving techniques, about 20hrs per charge on a new stock battery

Thanks for your opinion, do you think a 2500mah or in that range, be more suitable?

personally as long as it is the same size as the original and cheap i would go for it. i cant imagine this phone with the large extended battery, probably ugly and cumbersome. just make sure the size is the same

1520 mah is the one you're talking about, There is no 1500 oem battery for our device.

Mostly likely a 2500 mah battery is a aftermarket one, That gives less battery life then there claiming it to be and they die out faster then oem batteries, Not only that you'll need a bigger battery cover (not sure how you feel about that)
I recommend the HTC EVO 4G Design battery at 1520mah for anyone looking for a extended battery, It fits perfect w/o any need to trim or modify. If interested send me a pm I have a coupon code for 10% off
Stock G2 1300mah battery on the left 1520mah on the right

On moderate use I can go the whole day without a charge, On heavy use I charge once in the morning and once by the end of the night.
Anker is a aftermarket battery, One of the ones I was talking about in my last post you're not getting the reported mah level you paid for.
Go to http://batteryboss.org to see battery tests
I second the Evo battery; I was having to recharge early in the evening, now I can usually make it a full day with moderate use (ie. no hour of streaming videos or games) but, even with some streaming, etc. I usually just have to plug it in at the tail end of the day for a little bit, like during dinner.

Polarcell vs mugen vs original battery

Hi, with current promising progress in jb Rom, I'm thinking investing on new battery replacement for my Desire. I found:
1. www.cellephone.de/en/mobilfunk-zube...ion-google-nexus-one-replaced-ba-s410/a-2866/ polarcell with 1400mah capacity made in German(?) and
2. www.mugen-power-batteries.com/mugen...e-htc-desire-vodafone-htc-desire-1600mah.html mugen 1600mah same size with stock. More expensive than the first one.
Anyone have experience with one of them? How its quality and durability? How its compare to original HTC battery?
Thanks for sharing and advice.
I've not used the mugen, but there is a round up of some ~20 3rd party batteries for nexus 1 where Cameron Sino came out top. 2400mah with extra back cover. I found it on Amazon for about 7 gbp.
I run runnymede AIO, original battery could not make it through the day some days. The new one gives me 50-70% used in per day. Has been known to give 3 days when roaming (Wifi & voice, no 3g).
Hope this helps

Thanks for info. I thought nobody will answer my question
Btw, I prefer same size with original battery. Extra size will make my Desire case useless. The polarcell and mugen I mentioned are normal size.
Read this:
http://batteryboss.org/
batteries of the same size as the original battery that promise greater autonomy or mAh are, usually, fake and often with a capacity much lower in comparison to the original batteries

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.)

[Q] Battery For Galaxy S2

It has been more than 2 years since I'm using my Good Old trustworthy Galaxy S2.I think it's time to change my battery.
So here's my question: What battery shall I use? I know samsung batteries are the best,but I don't want to buy the stock 1650 Mah battery.Also,I don't want the 2000 Mah battery from samsung,because it needs a bigger Battery cover,and most of the cases/covers become unusable this way.
What battery should I buy from eBay? (This is where I will buy,and my budget is max 10$).I want an extended battery,which has a better battery life
and it is good and trustworthy.

No batteries the same size will give you more than real 1700 mah. when they write 2300 mah, they are lying, if you open them you will see the same cells as a regular 1650 mah from samsung.
Just get a good quality one.
I'm also in same boat like OP and was planning to get original Samsung 2000mah one but cant find it anywhere in India
Hey same here I am also want a original new 2000mah battery in India for my galaxy s2
Plz someone provide me link to buy online

I've received the battery suggested on this thread

about two months ago, and I'm not disappointed
It gives me a little better battery life than with the original battery for only 3 $ :good::good:

fake 1850-2450 mah battery usually contain only 1250-1450 mah power , you lucky if you got a 1650 mah one
Does anyone have any ideas about the batteries being sold on Flipkart. reviews seem to be good.

Why not the 2k from samsung? The back plate is as thick as the bottom part of the phone. So you won't really feel a difference.
and the camera will be protected better.

Well, if it runs better on your htc than the stock battery, then get one. The chance is high that the S2 Anker is also good then.
