the HTC HD2 Extended Battery (HTC-EBATHD2), which they expect to arrive in February 2010 and which promises to double battery life.
Minimum capacity of 2200mAH.

Actually, this is a good idea if you don't mind the thickness of the battery but with the Kick Stand is very cool.
Wonder when it will be available in Singapore HTC Service Centre?

So we can get double the battery life at the expense of it no longer fitting in holsters et cetera?
No thanks.

I think it looks quite cool, but I have doubts it will be out in Feb. Our HTC guy says
"Not released yet due to approval status. Hope to be able to send out more details next month."
and that is just more details not the product itself.

That kickstand looks very handy, not so keen on the thickness but I guess that's what you get with so much power.

Given that my HD2 has been known to go from 100% battery to zero in less than 9 hours without even coming out of stand-by, this can't come soon enough for me.

render looks nice, but how will it be looking in real?

If you compare the thickness of this HD2 with the extended battery to the combination of iPhone and Mophie Juice Pack then this is essentially thinner and definitely more attractive.
I would get one as soon as it arrives at Germany.

good idea with kickstand, but in my point its need a bluetooth keyboard to support, because we should touch the screen more carefully when it stand.

i was thinking of using it in conjunction with the new extended kickstand. i think it looks awesome. i have an extended battery with my g1 which is hella chunky so this wont bother me one bit since more longevity, sleek looking and functionality (kickstand) i can see myself doing work on it more.
Cost of both: £80 (might be able to get it less for both)

I think the extended battery and kick stand will be great for watching movies, slideshows and the media player. What would make it even nicer would be for Sense to have a landscape mode as well.... Is this in the 2.xx ROM?

I want this ！

I'm dreaming of that since weeks. After seeing that image weeks ago I felt immediately in love with it. ;-)
I really hope that this is gonna look as shown on that image. Once thats out there will be hopefully new cases considering the size with extended battery

Nice that they have made that battery...but there is no information about its cappacity?
Original stock battery's cappacity is 1230mah if I'm correct...what's the new one's?

Something around 2200 if I'm not mistaken.

Yikes! Price: £51.08! That's $82 for ya'll Stateside. Seems pretty pricey to me...

And for us TMO HD2 owners...
Does anyone know if this extended battery will fit the US TMO HD2 version? I'm seriously thinking about getting one, but have my concerns about it not fitting, as some HD2 cases do not fit the TMO version...
And can someone post a link to that cool bluetooth keyboard that was posted above?

what would be even better is if it incorporated a charger just like the palm pre touchstone or the power mat

Cool, thanks : )
Please can you let us know how you get on with it out and about. I've been thinking about a bike mount, but I can't make up my mind if the screen will actually be any good on the move... Home luck with it : )

I would never take my HD2 when I go biking, water + earth + fall => DAMN !

With your support the phone is not protected !
I have Otterbox for vtt and it very perfect ! Its full waterproof
http://www.otterbox.com/pda-cases/1900-series/

By the looks of things you do some sort of extreme biking i just do mine for pleasure and fitness so the holder i've posted is more than adequate and excellent for the price. Only real problem i seem to have with it is that it covers the loudspeaker so playing music without using headphonesis a little quiet but still can be heard in a quiet/countryside enviroment.

I wouldn't buy that op mount if I was just WALKING with the device. ESPECIALLY not an HD2.
Holy **** that otterbox is crazy tho. WHOA!

voileuxcool - does the touch screen work when you open the lid? GPS signal is ok? Did you have to make any other compromises or tweaks?
Thanks

I mean looking at that thing just makes me want to go mountainbiking! And I don't have a bike!

I have used the bike holder for about three months and it's a pretty good holder in all respects as long as the holder is tightened well. The only problem I had was I leave my bike outside exposed to the elements and one day when pulling the side back to release the HD2 it snapped...... It would be nicer if I could find a metal version some where!!!

I just got this one this week.
A lot cheaper than the awesome looking Otter, but should keep my phone safe & dry.

Do you use it with HD2 or with Desire?
Is it waterproof cause i see hole for wired headset?
Also, hole for wired headset is sideway, not on the bottom like it should be for HD2 so is it possible to use wired headset while phone is in holder?
Can you answer these questions and post some pictures also?
Thanx...

Of course it's possible. Try OziCe or RunGPS or any other tracking app.
I suggest u to try with OziCE cause u can easily find 1:25000 topo charts for Slovenia which are very good for biking...
cheers...

Just recieved it today. Can't w8 to test it!!

How long did it take you to make and how much? If you dont mind
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Took me about an hour to think it up and complete.
Didn't cost me anything really. I had all the materials left over from old projects and freebies.

Oh nice, well cool it does the job and cf always looks good i think
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Yeah I'm really happy with it. It's a lot more stable than I was expecting.
The front "cradle" part has metal inside the CF so you can form it to perfectly fit your phone.

Would you ever consider making me one to sell?

Yeah I could probably do that, I'd have to check to see if I have another good piece of carbon for it though

I was just wondering, what would be the price if you were to sell one? Or maybe just the cost of goods needed to make that (mainly the carbon fiber).
Sent from my Droid Incredible running Myn's Warm Two Point Two RLS5.3.

Well I'm using a special CF that already has the resin sort of soaked in already so the weave doesn't come apart. I haven't seen this online anywhere so I'm not sure how much it costs.
If I were to sell one, maybe around 20 bucks shipped?

Its nice but its to general for me. But its nice that its so general you can probably use it for your next phone.
Good job.
I made a car nav mount that also acts as a pivoting desk stand. It's nice when you have it mounted in the car you can take stable video while driving without having to hold the phone.

Wow thats nice

Add me to the list if you decide to sell a few of these, I'd buy one for 20!

Very cool. I have always wanted to do some work with Carbon Fiber. I have heard mixed reviews on its difficulty factor. I think seeing this gives me more confidence to try it myself.. Thanks for posting pics!

Which Case? (in UK)

Been really struggling to decide on the case for me after returning one. I'm really after a case similar to the iPad ones, slim and can be used to stand.
The Poetic one seems good but the thread on here seems almost all American. It's £20 here on Amazon and has had no reviews which is unusual. Is it worth that and is it the same? Sounds like I need the 3rd version.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Poetic-Slim...CPTQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1348174175&sr=8-3
If not are there any similar cases out there in the UK that people recommend? I'd also ideally like a colour as apposed to just black but it's not essential.
Thanks.

Any of these should do you..

I've got this one, nice case no sleep function.

Hi thanks,
Those all look ok but I'm pretty fussy when it comes to cases and I'm not sure any of those are quite what I'm after. Mostly they're too 'bitty'.
Basically this but for the Nexus & a good quality.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Invision®-I...3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1348175759&sr=1-3
I was waiting for Invision to release a Nexus one but they're no longer making them.

Seems like this is the perfect case for you, they come in these colours, it also has the magnet sleep function and a stand mode!

Here's my review, :good:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1892017

Thanks spooke, I saw your review, looks close to what I'm after. How is it for typing with in landscape? From the photos it looks like it might sort of bounce up and down a bit as you're typing.

Most of these stand cases fall over as soon as you touch them.
I might be saying this out of anger because just had a terrible experience off eBay for one of these cases, totally different colour than purchased, lied about dispatch, kept changing delivery date, not very well made, not stitched in properly.
But yeah, like I said don't take my word for it, could be anger.

If you type in landscape with the flap all the way around like this,
Then it doesn't move much and is angled like a keyboard. If you try to type with in in the 'stand' mode then it starts to move but if you hold it slightly and type it's fine.

I received mine very quickly from E-Cell, defiantly recommend them.

I got this one which is basically the same as what Troute already posted: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ultra-Sli...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item3a79167146 You can get it in different colours as well. But it does look pretty much like the one you posted without the ugly PU leather (sorry, just don't like that stuff!). Haven't had it long but sleep function works great, good quality, doesn't fall over, and would buy it again.
Another user has a review and pics over here (I know they're from the US but it is the exact same one): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840085

Spooke, yeah that's the picture I was referring to, it looks like your fingers pushing down would make it bounce a bit, maybe wrong.
Artcon, those look pretty good, thinking I might give one of those a go. Just not too sure about the way it has the hard grey back and then the coloured material on that, looks kind of strange. Will think about it, hopefully they have a green one somewhere, if not I think purple will be good. Also just waiting to hear from Poetic in UK about theirs. Can understand you not liking the PU leather, personally don't mind it, prefer it to the different materials as mentioned above I think.
Thanks though guys.

Cheap Case Review (Lots of pics!)

Hey everyone, I'm back with another review with lots of pictures again. Some of the pictures were taken with my Galaxy Note 2, and even though they are some fantastic pictures, I took out another camera to take pictures with the case on the phone.
To be honest, this is a case that I thought I wouldn't recommend to anyone because it was a cheapo case and it feels CHEAP! I mean, REALLY cheap! But once it's on the phone, it actually feels really good in hand and then it gives it a textured back that will for sure not let you drop it as easily!
Enough of my blabbing.
This is how it came:

}
You can find this case in a ton of different colors.
The buttons don't feel like they're going to click, but they're actually really clicky once it's on the case. It isn't as good as the original case that I reviewed last week, but for the price, it's good and you can feel the raised buttons.
Port holes are HUGE! I mean, every place there is an opening, this case makes it a lot bigger than it really needs to be! Check these pictures out.
Compare the hole for the speaker, or the pen silo!
And the camera hole
There is a higher lip on the case, so you can put it face down on the table and the screen won't touch the table.
I actually bought this case a week before I got my Note 2, and it just got here a few days ago. Ironic that I ordered it to have a case right away and it is the 4th case I got in the mail. Lol. I like the case, but it honestly doesn't compare to the Original case that I reviewed. It does have some good points and some bad ones. I like the texture, but it has massive port holes. I don't like how it makes my phone look though, but you can judge that for yourself. I'm going to stick to the original case. But it's not bad at all for the price that it is on eBay!
Would I recommend it? Yeah.
Are there better cases? For sure.
Better cases for the price? Probably not.
Hit thanks if this review has helped you or you just like the pics Or if you'd like me to continue reviewing cases I buy .

I've ordered from here before. Shipping takes forever unless you pay for faster shipping but it's legit and I got about 10 cases for my original note from there. They were only 86 cents! One of the best sites I've come across. The only problem I've run into is the pictures don't exactly represent the exact item. Like I ordered a case and the picture showed it transparent but it was really solid blue.
