can the one they are selling on dealextreme be used for our p6900's? i know that one is for p3450 or something.. but will the back cover fit? someone wrote there that the battery does work on our phones but the cover doesnt fit properly and he had to cut it to fit? anyone else on this board has tried this option yet or is everyone spending over $50 for battery?
I looked at the one on dealextreme along with about 20 other web sites. I finally decided on a 2400 mAh battery by mugen power. I paid 69 US for it and shipping was free at nakedcellphone.net
When it finally arrived I was absolutely impressed for the following reasons:
the capacity of the battery is more than twice as long as the OEM bat;
the back cover is thicker than the oem cover but does not have the hump;
although thicker, it actually fits in my hand more comfortably. I like the way the phone feels much better;
the chrome ring around the camera lens looks identical to the original, and as one would expect the diameter at the outside is larger to avoid an optic tunnel;
color matching is identical to the Sprint Vogue.
This phone rocks!
yea the only problem i had with the dealextreme one was the back cover.. the battery is amazing.. lasts me forever.. but the back cover is quite ugly and doesn't fit the vogue properly.. it leaves a lil gap at the bottom.. i think its designed for the GSM version .. but the battery itself is amazing.. just incase u wanna buy it just for the battery...

I looked at naked cellphone on ebay and was interested in the cradle they offer and possibly 2 extended batteries (i'd put the OEM away for a last ditch backup) but does the extended batter fit in a cradle properly with the larger battery installed? Any success here?
Thanks

MNN -
Sorry for the delayed response. No, the extended battery will not fit into the majority of cradles out there. But when I googled close to 50 different web sites selling accessories for the vogue, I stumbled across 1 or 2 who were advertising that they had cradles that would fit the thicker phones with ext bats. Sorry I don't have a site to give you but you should be able to find it if you haven't already.
Update to the Mugen Power 2400 extended battery:
It has awesome battery life, like a week or more on standby. I can get hours and hours of of GPS, phone use, mp3, web, etc. at least 8 hours or more. I love the phone.

Does the battery work well now?
Does anyone know dinodirect.com?
This site is also selling HTC replacement batteries. To guarantee your phone life span, I would recommend you to use original battery.
SKU: A0324000KD
This replacement can be applied to 6900.
I ordered HTC Touch battery from dealextreme, but i never received my order so far.. So i reordered it from Chinabuye, an online store from China. I received ontime with free ship cost. Through paypal, payment i made easily and find its safe with them. When it comes to quality, its good one and brand sytlish. Rates are quite cheaper and has discount features.
Chinabuye !
I think it will better to use online Shop from China Chinabuye rather than dealextreme !
Chinabuye has more payment options and free shipping option ! which make buyer attractive to buy ! and also it has great quality products !
The battery and cover I just purchased today are these:
http://www.batteries4less.com/htc/v...v6900-vogue-oem-bte6900-extended-battery.html
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-BACK-DOOR...662959?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item45ebf8516f
Looks like a really good price on the battery and I'm crossing my fingers that they cover will fit - looks like it should.
Good luck on finding the battery. These Vogues are all coming up on end of life for the batteries it seems as they can only be charged so many times.

I swear by these guys for all my accessories and batteries, going on 4 phones now. Very satisified customer.
edit2: 09/23/09- email from seidio stating it is NOT compatible with the holster listed below
edit: and says it's compatible with holster, agian, very satisfied buy.
http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/d-hlhhrsas.htm
This is by far my favorite of the 3 holsters I've previously owned for various phones by the same company. Phone sits very secure with no fear of falling out at all.
Interesting, the price is a bit steep but not too high.
I would like to see some higher res pics from a few angles to get a better idea of what the case cover looks like.
I have the holster but how do you know the extended battery fits the holster? From the single photo of the battery cover, it looks like the top sticks out as much as the area below the camera...

Yes I did see that though from the photo it does not look like that's the case. Do you really think it's compatible from that photo? I've had the extended battery for the Storm and the holster worked fine because the battery cover did not extend on the upper portion where the camera is. Guess we'll have to wait for someone to actually dive in but in the meantime I'm sticking to what I can tell from that photo on their site.
Reasonable price? depends on what you think is reasonable. You do realize that without either the battery or the phone, the other is pretty worthless. I think it's a great price considering crap motorola batteries are $30
got this from seidio, just an fyi, they must be talking about different holsters or the listing might just be plain incorrect.

I ordered this, and its been shipped already and I am awaiting arrival. I also have the innocase and holster combo, and while I know the innocase wont fit, I will try the holster and report back if that one works.
any idea which case will work?
:/
I got mine today. Huge battery
The replacement cover is ok, although I am afraid it will accidentally slide off in my pocket.
Overall, the added bulk really doesn't make a huge difference, in fact it makes it a little easier to hold.
Can't wait to see what the battery life on this sucker is like.

I got mine today too. I also like the added bulk. It fits my Seidio holster, even though the innocase that I got with the holster wont fit. Made of the same material as the innocase so its hard to scuff etc. I'll report back after a few cycles to let people know what I'm getting usage wise out of it.
UPDATE:
Well, it came off the charger at 3:30pm today saying 100%. I have been hammering it mercilessly for 6 hours now. Streaming Pandora for six hours straight, Turned on GPS, set all of my social network notifications to the quickest pull intervals, and my mail also. I have had the web browser open for nearly three hours, had three calls of around 20 minutes each, and my awake time since I pulled the battery off the charger is 100%. I am sitting at 75% right now. I am trying to get the battery low so I can get a full charge for the next cycle, but this damn thing won't go down. I guess I'll try to download a game or something and play it while listening to Pandora. This thing is a beast....
This is a beast. Used it all evening last night, and the power meter did not budge.
Also the new back makes the Hero much easier to hold.
Waiting for a day in the office where I have a weak signal to see how it does there. I'm guessing this thing will make it through a day or two no matter what I throw at it.
By far the best accessory...
Awesome, guys, glad to hear this thing is the real deal. I'm thinking about getting one but I'm waiting for the price to go down. Anyone know if they usually do? Last extended battery I bought was only $7, this one is pretty steep.
I found a better deal but not in stock ATM:
http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=25424
sounds great. can't wait to buy one, but i'm waiting to find out which case is compatible. i'm not picky, can be a leather pouch, any suggestions?

watch out for these kinda deals, i'm fairly certain seidio's waranty doesn't transfer to 3rd party sellers completely.
I had purchased a battery from seidio previously that was DoA, and after a conversation with their RMA department getting my invoice number and all that, they said they will replace bad batteries from anywhere but since I purchased through seidio directly they would send me a replacement without having to send the old one back first (or at all, they just said to pitch it). The battery that was sent to me was tested with a full power cycle before being over-nighted to my door.
I don't know, it's something to think about. If I'm getting a quality piece of gear, and the service to back it. I don't mind throwing out an extra little bit.
I'm on my second charge. The phone has been off the charger since 12pm on Sunday. I am sitting at 70% on Monday at 2pm. I'm really liking the usage I am getting out of this. I did not beat on it too much yesterday, just a lot of normal use. I figure at this rate, I will have to charge it every three or so days. I'm hoping it improves after a few cycles, even though I've only charged it twice so far. I'm going to run it down to 30% or so before the next charge....who knows when that will be lol.
Hi there,
I got my battery I ordered from a dealer on Ebay, supposed to be an original HTC battery. I'm not so sure though, and some other opinions would be appreciated. Attached are pics of the battery I got with my phone, and the battery I got off Ebay. The Ebay battery isn't as smooth as my original - lumpy on both sides, anf the build quality isn't as good. Also, while it fits ok in my phone, it rubs against the top edge of the battery spot when i put it in.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
David
Just two more pics for detail comparison.
David
Nobody have any opinions as to whether the new battery is fake or not? Sigh...
can you provide the link of the seller?
if the batteries he sells are of the same serial no. then it is a fake/imitation.
Here's the seller:
http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/24_battery/
They've got several other HD2 batteries on sale, but all with the same pic. The serial number on my battery matches the pictures shown. ANy ideas?
Looking at several other batteries listed on Ebay, they all seem to share the same serial number as the one on the battery I received.
Lokking at those pics. I would say there one imitation of the original. Must be careful of ebay seller from China. I had quite a few thing off ebay. Even though they work. They did not last as long as the original.
DO you think I might have a case for claiming back my money? I did buy it under the assumption that it was a genuine battery, and given that it probably isn't, doesn't that constitute false advertising?
How much did you pay for it?
NOt that much - $8 if I remember right... To be honest, not worried so much about the money, more about others buying the battery under the same false pretenses as I did.
well i think its kind of common sense...
i would never buy a battery that is sold from htc around £35, $8 from a seller in china through ebay and expect to be the real deal....
or at least i would mail the seller to clarify if indeed the case is the original one and not one that looks like the original..
sometimes these people can hide behind words so u have to be careful and if sometimes something just doesnt feel right.. ask!
PS two famous quotations which i believe are very true.
"If something seems too good to be true, it probably isnt true!"
"you get what u paid for..."
Im sorry that this happened to you and i know it not about the money.
i get really pissed with sellers like this guy that are playing with our intelligence..
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
Sent from my HTC Vogue FroYo using XDA App
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 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!
So i got this thing from amazon from mazel wireless and in the description it stated very good. what part of very good does this look to you guys. I hate the interweb sometimes
Clearly you got a used cover. I got mine from Verizon when they were on sale for $25 and it was new and I have never regretted it. The battery life is great. Sorry you got ripped off.
Return it to amazon if you can. You can still order an lg revolution extended battery + case from verizonwireless.com for only $25. Most other places like amazon they are $40-$50.
I ordered mine last week and I love it!

Vintage/weathered look?
Seriously, though. That sucks. Very dishonest description. But yeah, Amazon is generally pretty good about that kind of thing. You probably won't have problems if you decide to return it.
