Hello folks,
I've just got hold of an extended battery for £12 (from ebay) and now I need a new case for my Wallaby as my current one won't fit it any more. I've been having a search around the Internet but so far no joy so I was wondering if anyone here has found a case with room for the extended battery in the UK.
Regards,
Neil.
XDA/Wallaby Executive Case
I use the XDA I (Wallaby) with the battery backpack.
It fits fine inside the o2 XDA Executive case. You can get this case on eBay.co.uk for £7.49

They also have other genuine XDA I and II accessories.

Thanks for the reply but I found just the right case at http://www.ebcases.com/Detail.bok?no=3193 - it took a while to get here via its transatlantic journey but arrived all well and good after a few weeks.
Regards,
Neil.

Well the official extended battery works well, it makes the phone very chunky though, my problem is I dropped the phone and broke the plastic locator tag so the battery doesnt sit on the phone properly, the bottom sticks out, probably have to use velcro or similar. :?

Is it work with WM2003SE? Or do you need any drivers?
No drivers, its just an electrical connection.
Hi, my first post hope it helps even though its a couople of months late!
I have just bought an extended battery off ebay uk from HK took 4 days to come and took me 10 mins to change over. Cost £12 delivered.
Lasts for ever. Got extened battery for old ipaq as well from sameguy just as good.
Got mine from www.lionbattery.com. Some ppl said it won't charge from cradle and resets device... I don't have these issues so far... It charges from cradle and doesn't reset device when I change it. But I've been using it only for 3 days so can't really give a good advice.
Also have a look at:

I just bought an external battery on eBay, and it works great, but a bit bulky, and I don't have a case that will fit.
I also bought a new 1750 mAh replacement battery, and it works so well that the external battery mostly resides in my refrigerator! I expect I will use the external battery on camping and boating trips, as I keep the phone in a waterproof PDA case, and it has the extra room.
The 1750 mAh battery is a HUGE improvement over the stock 1200 mAh, it took about 10 minutes to change it out. They even sent out a couple of the special TORX screwdrivers needed!
I spent, including shipping, $22.00 for the new battery, and $22.00 for the external one.
The XDA I (Wallaby) with the genuine battery backpack fits fine inside the o2 XDA Executive case. You can get this case on eBay.co.uk for around £7.50
Just search ebay for

Found this today. Its so cheap its definitely worth a shot. I've ordered from this site in the past with good results. Shipping is a little slow but it is free. Can take up to 3 weeks to receive your order.

Nice find,
I can second the legitness of Deal Extreme, I have ordered plenty of items from them.
Moved to Vogue Accessories...
nice deal, if i didn't already have 2 and an extended battery, i would get one.
Has anyone got this? Does it fit the Bell Touch?
FYI, I ordered several and they seem to work fine. Have Norfolk compared battery life though as it was not for my phone

I have ordered from them before. I ordered 2 extended batteries for the vogue from them. Works well. Only thing is that the back case doesn't fit, but I just ordered a cdma extended back case from amazon, which was a good price too.
What are these extended batteries you guys are talking about... I've searched around and haven't seen anything better than the standard 1100mAh batteries. Can anyone link me to one of these extended batteries?

It's also called the Dopod S1 or p3450 on dealextreme. The battery will fit but the back cover won't. You'll have to find one on ebay or amazon for the fitting back cover for the vogue/xv6900
Well my original battery seems just fine, but is a couple of years old so I thought I'd order one of these as a backup. Well, long story short, I decided that at less the 3 bones a piece I'd order 2, just in case one was bad. It took about 10 days to get my order (slow boat from China and all), but they arrived today and work just great!
I don't know how the hell it can be profitable to ship 2 batteries from Hong Kong to Iowa for under 6 bucks, but I'm not complaining!

I looked for an extended battery cover on amazon for the Vogue, but can't find it. Care to share a link or the ASIN no?
extended battery...sure!

I got a extended battery, it's 2000mAh of pure energy...your phone will look pregnant once you put this bad boy in, but the performance is well worth it. It has battery with case, it usually lasts me the whole day (7am - 10pm) and that's with moderate to heavy use, gps on, data on, gmail on, as well as other email accounts that pool approx 6x a day. You can Google "2000mah, vogue battery" & it should pop up...happy hunting!
Anyone know if there's a carrying case similar to the snap in case (like for the original Droid & X) that will accommodate an extended battery? I've hunted VZW's site & e-bay but haven't found any except the pouch style.

Which battery are you using? I am using the Verizon Extended Battery and I bought this case (P/N VZW6300HOC) Won't let me post links yet. I used tin snips to cut out around the extended cover.
It's a Verizon extended battery, I got it & the back with my inc when they sent it as a replacement for my P. O. S. Devour.

Yeah they did the same for me. This is the best option I have seen so far.

I am using the 2150 battery and I just cut out the back of a rubber case. Works great and looks good.
I just looked at mine & its the 2150, I noticed another thread about modding a case to fit over the extended back & am going to try that. If it don't work I'm out, what, $20? It's worth a shot, I post pics if I can get the X style clip & case nodded to fit.

Not sure if its the same size but Sedio makes an extended case for the 3500mah. They don't sell it without the battery on their site, but if you email them asking about it they will offer the back piece standalone
The 3500 is thicker. Even if it fits, you're gaining the extra thickness of the 3500 case so you may as well get the 3500 battery, too.

Are you talking about the actual back cover to the battery, or an actual protective case that fits "over" the back cover?
Just went into my local Best Buy today. What did they just in..........Seidio Innocase II! $25. And to make life even better......1750mah battery! $40. The packaging says Platinum products something, but when you look on the bottom it says Seidio.
Getting the case was a no brainer. I had their cheap Rocketfish hard case and it's falling apart after a month and a half. The battery I'm still unsure about since some people say it makes a huge difference, some say it is no improvement. But thats for another thread
I just Bought one of these and it arrived today. £10.99 from Amazon!!
http://www.amazon.co.uk/HTC-HD2-Ext...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1298995158&sr=8-1
These batteries have a good reputation on here, and really seems like a quality product.
The battery door fits perfectly and although its plastic the kickstand is aluminium and I think it has to be the same quality of the HTC one, anyway for 10 quid its a bargain!!
I bought one of those "cheap" 2400ma ones recently for my defender case project and haven't got it to report properly in 2 weeks, so I'm hoping to use the Leicke along with Arnes 2300ma kernel
Just Charging it up now so I'll ad a quick review after ive used it for a bit
Thanks for the info!! I've bought before in Amazon and just for coming from Amazon.. couldn't be bad!
Result?

So...how was the result? I only found that same battery for 22 pounds, but its still cheaper than the original HTC extended battery of 41 pounds.
How is it working? Is it worth buying?
Hey guys i am planning to buy a little boost to my hd2. I like to buy an extended battery+battery door with kick stand+protective backcase ( that flexible cover pannel which protects from drops,scratches etc)
And the problems are, as i never used an extended battery b4, i dont know which one is good, is there any 3000+ mA version?
Have any one used such a higher capacity one which realy works? Also i need the battery door with kick stand.
The other thing is that can i get a protective case that supports the dimensions (ie,the backdoor bulge when using an extended battery) of extended battery??
Guys pls help me out. I am from india and so pls provide me a dealer that ships to india.
Thanks in advance.

You are so helpful...

You could buy something like this :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2400mAh-Extended-Battery-Door-Cover-For-HTC-HD2-HD-2-/220713693102?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item33638fafae
Free shipping to India. When it comes to original extended battery it is almost impossible to find it..
The one linked above can be found as cheap as £3.99, the quality of the rear door as very poor & battery is closer to 1800mAh than 2400.
If budget & availability exists get original HTC extended battery or look at the CS extended battery as another cheap easily sourced option.
Looked both links. Confused... as always.. hundreds of options.( in ebay itself). thats why i asked for some one who used a real extended battery. I meen pls provide a link to a battery that is real extended and not fake china ones,which any of u have used( i never gonna belive or buy by checking wht internet says), and is proved good.
Also need a backdoor with kickstand and a protective case tht support extended batterie's backdoor.
Currently i am using the default battery and with a flexible shell type protective case. The case is originaly for desire hd. But hd2 fits into it perfectly. All i have to do is to cut open a little portion of case for led flash and speaker. ( lol.. spend almost a week in search of hd2 protective case in almost entire state itself. No luck. So bought this one)

Why don't you just buy a spare battery+external charger? I have bought those from dealextreme it was less than 10$ and after 6months I'm still very happy with it
Simply the best one with kick stand quality back cover & only one with genuine quoted mAh is HTC genuine extended battery.
Second option is Mugen but it is as expensive as HTC genuine & mAh rating is a little over stated & back door is not as good.
The HTC genuine also has no issues using all cell power but some cheaper ones require pulling & re-inserting at 50% level.
The cheaper ones on eBay are appalling quality all round & a pointless bulge with little extra power.
Conclusion=Only decent extended battery & kickstand door is HTC one so search eBay or mobile stores & find one shipping to India.

I bought an official HTC extended battery from this ebay user and it's holds up great, if your like me and use you're HD2 a lot during the day this battery is a must have. Here's a review/info for it http://youtu.be/LgKiMSSX9Rw.
For a case that fits an extended battery go to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1316516
P.S. make an offer for the battery i got mines for $38.
Cheap standard sized CS battery with worldwide shipping is £5.35 at moment on eBay.
Not bad for spare or to get an old battery dead HD2 running for a while, also good for those with no local options ...
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120887562999
Good thing is if never arrives or does not meet your standards the chance of full refund is very high ...
One hint:
If ur planning to buy a cheap ass battery, you can even better use ur stock battery, cause these cheap battery's can only destroy ur hd2.. and doesn't expand the lifetime that much.
