Possible to switch EU and US backplates? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I was wondering if anyone had a US and EU diamond and knew whether it was possible to slim down the US version by putting in a EU battery and backplate?
Thanks!

I was about to do the same question. It would be helpful if someone posted photos of each model without the rear cover with the battery on.

i really wouldn't recommend it seeing how my battery life sucks, but looking at the specs they should fit?

I bought my US diamond last week and the store had both so i was curios and tried the EU battery & cover in the US verison and it fit fine.
Depending on my battery usage I may buy the smaller battery and EU cover.

Some of us just share the same flavor http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425911&page=5

[Q] What's currently the best battery for i9000?

Hello everyone!
I've been owning my wonderful i9000 for two years now, and for a few months battery life has become terrible, even on stock GB ROMS (i'm currently on a CM10 nightly, and it lasts no more than.. 12 hours on moderate use, 6-7 in regular use.
So I've decided to test its capacity with Nova Battery Tester (pretty good app btw), and the result showed me that it had dropped to 750 mAh, that's to say half the stock capacity.
According to the result, and due to my financial incapacity to buy a new Android Phone for now, I've decided to buy a new battery, but I can't decide which one to choose.
I'd really appreciate if some of you could give me some advice.
Have a nice day!

In time batteries will lose there capacity. This is something you cannot prevent. It's caused by some chemical stuff inside your battery. You'll need a new one.
Yeah, I figured it out, that's why I asked advice on which battery to buy (a stock one, an extended one...)
You can buy a 1650mah one which is the same size or a bigger one but it will require a bigger back case. Watch out for fakes (eg. "3500mah from Hongkong")
Go to the Accessories section of the I9000 forum, lots of battery threads.

I’ve got a 1800mAh one which is same size as stock one.
Apparently the galaxy s plus has a 1650mAh battery, which supposedly also fits in our regular i9000 phones. A Dutch webshop sells it here, no idea if they're shipping to other countries though. It's a small 150mAh upgrade.

Best Battery?

Hi all,
I've looked at recent threads and searched also, but the threads are either all dead or were outdated, so please go easy!
I'm due to go to America this summer, and was looking to buy a few batteries to switch while I take pictures and videos (My Note is the best camera I have), and I really am in need of good batteries, but they MUST be stock sized. I've been looking everywhere, but I'm worried some may be fake, and I don't know whether the ones with high capacities are any different to the stock capacity ones.
Could anyone recommend me any good batteries that will fit the phone and last a long time, but don't cost an arm and a leg to buy?
Thanks in advance!

[Battery Mod][Lens Mod] Upgrading original One Plus 3

Well according to this video it seems that the metal body (which contains the sapphire lens) and the 3400 mAh battery are compatible with the original one plus 3. However we need a software tweak to change the battery capacity as seen by the system.
Anyone with any source to buy either the battery or the lens can list it here ( I shall edit the main post to include the links)
I know that one plus has officially 'not condoned' the swapping of batteries. However as a person who praises their business decision but doesn't like their defocus on products I say my moto is also #NeverSettle. I want to see what my current phone can do with these upgrades.
The battery mod doesn't seem dangerous if someone literally hard swapped it without any software tweak but I'm pretty sure a developer can make a tweak for software ? if not please explain why.. It will help us DIY people understand better
The new body is up for grabs anyway if someone can list the sources. Yes it might not be available now but just like OPO and OPO2 parts we maybe able to upgrade in the future
I hope if some major dev has both fones he can come up with this. That would be huge!
Exactly. I don't want to bother devs a lot as they are already facing so much difficulty but I think anyone with a one plus 3T source should be able to port it maybe.That 400maH seems less but for light to medium users it's actually quite an upgrade.
I'll try to post on 3T forums to see if anyone can get it done.
I'm also currently looking for that back metal body. That sapphire lens is better than what Apple provides and DAMN that solved a lot of problems
The selfie camera is also another step but then again that will push the devs too much. Who knows maybe except for the processor we might just replicate the 3T.
watch this video
Um that's the one that I have posted in my original post. Jerry rig everything one right?
Well just goes to say that one plus has made the batteries similar enough to allow it to be used in OP3 Hardware wise.
waiting for any developer to provide any insight.
meanwhile eBay hunt for the rest of us.

Sorry I didn't watched the video mentioned in OP. ?
Yea it's software related so may b a dev can fix this
Seems like my next mod for the OP3
Also, unless the 3400mAh battery has a bigger voltage, I think it could be used without problem on the OP3, even without changing anything, and take advantage of the bigger capacity.

Which genuine replacement display is compatible to N920C?

On eBay i can't find any "N920C" displays. Only for the other models.
Or does N920 mean N920C? Anyone knows which one to buy?
no one?
I feel manufacturers should be at the point where all variants of the same phone use the same screen and motherboard (other than the physical color of the bezel and carrier branding)
I want to replace my N920A screen and digitiser as well, but can't seem to find one specifically for my model. I see those labelled for the international models.
I think the screens are alle the same and compatible because the part number always seems to be GH97-17755B (last digit for the color).
Thanks. That's exactly what I wanted to hear.
When I change my screen, I'll get the 3800 mAH battery at the same time
Did you try the 3800mah battery in between? =)

No. I haven't bought the screen or the battery as yet. I feel such a battery doesn't exist (or is a fake in terms of capacity).

Should I buy this phone (2nd hand)?

My current rent phone is snapdragon 652 and I still don't have budget to buy latest flagship (not even poco).
So I saw this seller on a buy and sell shop and he/she sells mi mix china rom (there are ratings/reviews from several customers so i think the seller is legit).
I want to use it for gaming/media consumption. It is china rom (stock miui oreo) with google installed. If i buy it, i don't intend to root it nor change rom. (i don't know how to do either).
Should i buy it?
Is it good for gaming/media?
(assuming the battery is good condition), is the 4400mah battery efficient in standby battery drain?
What else should I be concerned about?
I only saw/read a few reviews because searches always give reviews about mix 2/2s/3, not 1st gen. And the reviews i saw focused on camera/display, not gaming.
Please give me some inputs.
It's the worst device for gaming! Don't buy it!
