[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.

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.

Gold 2450mAh battery from ebay

Just wanted to report in with my experience of these large capacity batteries.
I purchased 2 of them along with a generic external charger and they are far better than the stock ones.
Currently been going for 48 hours and still at 25%. I was struggling to get 12 hours out of the stock battery.
They seem like reasonable quality and for around 10AUD each they are decent value. They fit under the stock cover too which is a bonus.
Anyone else using these?

I bought 1 too, thinking it was only a stock battery or a cheaper one with beautiful wrapping and it surprised me. Last way much longer than usual one and yes it fit under stock cover.

Thanks for this info ! Would you post some pictures of the battery itself and some of usage stats , please ?

Most likely it is fake. Recently I bought 'gold' battery for my old SE K800 from ebay. Printed capacity on label was almost double than original battery but in fact real capacity was half of original. So, returned to seller and lost shipping costs only.
Unfortunately physics is in full force for batteries: at the moment larger capacity can be achieved only by more or larger sells!!!

I'm actually MORE than happy with original Samsung 2000MAh battery. I would NEVER put a fake or low quality battery close to my face.

Well that confirms all these uprated batteries are in fact rubbish with the exception of the much larger 3500mah one and even that was nowhere near the stated 3500mah rating

The gold batteries from Ebay are all fake. Don't waste your time. Peel off the gold cover, under it, you'll find an under powered rating.this batteries have already been discussed at xda over and over with picture evidences to show they are fake. Go buy a jaguar for 10 bucks and tell me it's real.

I just bought one from ebay too. A gold 2450 mAh battery.
After I received it I put it in the mobile and battery snap from the market tells me the same remaining time as the stock 1650 mAh battery.. Then I peeled off the gold wrapper and underneath I found this inprint "HD504655AR 11K08NF1650".. 1650 ?? Strange coincidence ...
I opend a case with ebay requesting my money back because this looks like a fraud. I'll have to wait several days for it to close, but I will tell you how it ended...
I can only tell you that I should have read the posts here about the "gold" batteries.. Damn fakes!

Ok, so can anyone tell me how to identify a genuine Samsung battery?
My phone came with a battery that looks almost identical to eBay item 110825200405, except that mine says "Finished in Vietnam" and the recycle symbol is a bit different.
The supposedly genuine batteries on eBay (e.g. eBay item 140704498924) look quite different.
I got my phone from Orange/Partner in Israel and I'm wondering if they are using cheap aftermarket batteries to save money. Anyway, I want to buy a spare but I want to make sure that I'm getting my moneys worth for a battery that has the actual marked capacity and that will last.
Thanks.

Glad to trade abt the gold batteries here. I was abt to use a pair for myself

"Gold Batteries"
Bump.
I was about to post a big thing with a battery log that I kept for the first 5 charges of my new "Gold" battery along with how unimpressed I was and that it didnt seem any better than my stock 1250mAh. The new battery was supposedly 2450mAh. after reading the post 2 posts above mine I decided to remove the gold foil to look at the stamps on mine. I see nothing to indicate the mAh capacity on mine but after using it for a month I can say for sure that it is no better than my stock battery. I am not going to file it with ebay or anything but it sure seems like there are a lot of fakes out there. Mine came from Ghuang Dong china or something like that... lol. Anyway I only paid 6.99$ with no shipping and have a functional spare battery now so, oh well. Lesson learned. Figured I'd give my 2 cents.

Oops. Just realixed this is for samsungs. Mine was for HTC Inspire. Probably all the same though... My bad.

my 2 bits worth
Just got the ebay GOLD (haha) battery as well but paid like 4 bux for it - FWIW it seems to hold a charge longer though it charges lightning fast which leads me to believe that it is indeed not 2450mah
After having done a bit of research, mah is a tricky thing to verify - can be done with a multimeter BUT there is a device called a battery-analyzer that does the trick. So these ppl that sell the possibly fraud batteries have tapped a great market: people (mostly) without the gear or know-how to check the quality of the goods!
regardless i needed a second battery so no loss for me. Now if it explodes or something I will report here first and I will not leave my 5star feedback for the "gold battery people" just yet
UPDATE
***so the gold battery performance is incredibly poor - last less and less time with each charge***
I'd advise anyone to absolutely not bother with one of these

[Q] Ecell - GOLD 2430MAH BATTERY FOR SONY ERICSSON XPERIA PLAY

Has anyone tried this Ecell 2430MAH battery ?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ecell-2430M...5?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1326647685&sr=1-5
Still not even lasting a day with the stock battery. (GTmax one was better).
If this is junk think I will just get the 1800 Mugen Power one.
(I think the performance of the stock battery is horrendous - perhaps I was defrauded by shop I bought it from (One of the staff needed a new one so swapped theirs for mine etc. Never buy from Dial A Phone).

This was posted on my thread for the 2600mha battery. From what I make if it stay away from ecell. Here is the link. This is not from me but from another user on xda. I am simply pasting the link he provided.

I bought a case for my Xperia play from them and it's seriously the best £2.50 I've spent in a long time. I've tried 4 cases ranging from the obscenely expensive to the acceptably cheap and their case is by far the best. Easy clip on, easy take off (though it wont ever come off by accident) and it feels/looks very nice.
Cannot recommend it enough, especially after seeing all the negative reviews for every other case in existence for the play.
HOWEVER - this was my first experience buying from Ecell and all was well and good. Unfortunately, hundreds other people have had DREADFUL experiences with them, ranging from fake sd cards to tampered/used/busted phones being delivered and even negligence towards contemporary buyer/seller code and morals.
http://fotios.org/node/2173
I suggest you visit that link and consider carefully before purchasing the battery. I too was thinking of buying that battery but was turned off by the comments in that link.
If you do decide to buy it, let me know if it's worth it please!
EDIT: LOL jgregoryj1 beat me to it

E-Cell are a bit hit and miss, had some good and bad experiences with them, Looked at that exact battery for my play but just looks too good to be true in my opinion
Brought a case from them and it arrived in 2 days. Great case for the play too
But then again once brought a Motorola Milestone from them which took 3 weeks to arrive and came all in chinese. So like I said, the companies very hit and miss. So you take the chance with anything you buy with them
Saying that, Unlike some other people, I think the stock battery on the play is bloody marvellous. Really appreciate it after the crappy 1230mAH battery I had in my last phone - the HD7. You were lucky to get half a day out of that.

I agree. I love the battery on mine. I can get a full day using whatever I want on whatever brightness I want, using whatever connection utility i want and still have some left over by the time I get to bed. I use tunein radio on it when I go to sleep so it's plugged in all night anyway!

yeah i actually found this link "http://fotios.org/node/2173" whilst looking for other vendors selling that battery after i saw the posts about it in the battery thread. They seem fine with cheap items and bad with anything +100 dollars from what people are saying on that forum.
I ended up getting the mugen 3600 myself, but i thought id post up the link so people here could make their own informed decisions, if anyone does buy it, please post and let us know how it goes, i think alot of people would be keen for a bigger stock battery at that bargain price(if it works).
seems like a gold phone bomb atm to me though

The improvement was ~15-20 % more power i think.

I have a gt max (?) 3600mah battery and the phone seems to pick up the battery capacity with no problem. Of course, your experience may differ from mine due to differences in batteries.

i have also an 3600mha battery for my r800i and the duration icreased to about 50%.
The extended cover is really nice and fits perfectly. the only problem with the extended cover is, that it squeaks.
The extended cover also improve the gameplay with the xperia play because with the thicker back you can play really good with the gamepad.

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!

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

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

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.

High capacity power packs are big. Something under 5000mah would be pocket friendly in my opinion. I personally have a 5000mah. Its a perfect size and I can charge my phone twice from 1 or 2 percent to full charge. Sometimes I have a bit of juice left in it. However I did not purchase it from eBay but I'm sure there are plenty good ones there. And as razer1224 said don't buy cases that have batteries built into them. From my experience they charge very slowly and make the phone look bulky and ugly.
