Possible free 1500mah HTC brand battery for Incredible

I found out something interesting that I figured I'd share with the rest of the users here. The battery that is shipped with the HTC Ozone from Verizon is a 1500mah HTC branded battery. The HTC ozone can be purchased for FREE online with the new phone discount, plus free shipping. If you have a line with an upgrade discount available and want to sacrifice it for a free spare battery for your Incredible (also works for Eris) this is a good way to do it.
I've only had my Incredible for a day so I'm not sure exactly how much more battery life you'll get with the 1500, but even if it's not much more you can keep it around as a backup when the other dies.

Why would you want to pay at a minimum 240 dollars over 2 years just to get a battery and waste an upgrade on a terrible phone.

That's why you'd be "sacrificing" an upgrade. If you have a line due for an upgrade but you don't want to upgrade, you can use it to get the phone for free, giving you an additional battery. You don't actually have to use the phone, and you could probably even sell it on ebay without the battery for a few bucks.

this is by far the worst idea I have ever, ever heard. You want to waste an upgrade to get a 1500mah battery that you can buy 2 for $5 on ebay? Ya know, instead of buying a $600 phone for $200 and reselling it? What the HELL?

and you are then recommitted for another 2 years in the process....
doesn't make sense.

It's just so much simpler to call Verizon and complain about your battery life to get a second battery sent your way...

This made my night. soo funny. I might put this in my signature haha, if you wouldn't mind haha.

yo this is a great idea. forget using my other NE2 to get the moto x or the next best thing when im sick of my inc. i'll get the old ass htc ozone so i can have an extra $5 battery incase i need the much more powerful 1500mah battery. it's a whole 200mah more!!! i can't believe i didnt think of this before!
fart.

Wow this forum can be mean. I think if your willing to sacrifice your upgrade good for you and enjoy your battery. But if you don't agree with his opinion, you don't have to be an @$$.

That's XDA for ya.
Anyways, I think if someone wants to forfeit an upgrade for a battery, then so be it. What if a person who works for HTC gets a free or heavily discounted phone from their employer and chooses to use a Verizon upgrade for the same purpose the OP explained? Would the arrogant jerks attack them? Who cares about 2yr contracts? I've been a Verizon customer since I got my first phone. Not sure why people are so scared of contracts.

wow
dont really remember readin that the man said this was the greatest idea ever. i believe he was giving you guys an option. another way. something I believe this site is all about.
btw, screw u all. I still like my ozone

Yeah. Take it easy guys. Just a thought the guy had. Flaming doesn't get anyone anywher. Everyone flamed that jake day guy and he posted a big **** you on his blog. He may have said he had a lot of things he didn't(root,nand unlock, OC kernels.) But he didn't deserve the constant reaming he got. Check this out. www.ninebysix.com

Or you could just buy a battery for $40.

guys you can buy 2 1500 mAh on Ebay for $10. For $15 you can get 2 batteries and an external battery charger. LMAO w/ Free delivery.l

how many MAH is the standard battery that the incredible comes with?

1300mah

Batteries for Optimus Black

I`ve just found this:
(can`t post link yet, so google it)
Mugen Power 3400mAh Extended Battery for LG Optimus Black P970 / DOCOMO LG Optimus Bright [HLI-P970XL]
Looks promising, capacity is more than double
Do you thik it will make phone thicker?

Yes, the phone will be thicker.
If you look at Mugen direktly (first hit on google) there will be extra shells shipped with the accu. If you close enough at the picture you will see a little pit at the camera spot. I assume it will be about 5 mm thicker or so.
Greetings

I really like the look of this extended battery. Since the phone is already so thin I don't think an extended battery will make as big of a difference as it does with other phones. My only issue is the $100 price tag. Hopefully there'll be more options by the time this phone hits the USA, specifically VMU.

OMFG ! How ugly ! OB lost all the sex !

There is a highly reputable, reliable and respected seller on ebay from whom I have bought many items (but not batteries). They are selling high capacity, japanese batteries for a reasonable price.
Go onto ebay and search for 'Gold 2430MAH battery optimus black'
I emailed them regarding the quality of the batteries and the price and basically their answer was that they have an excellent feedback score on almost all batteries they have sold and the price is good because they get it straight from the factory.
I have ordered a set and will report on it after some use

There are no miracles in that area, there's no physical possibility of having such a big capacity in such a small form.
This is more than 100% fake.
Waiting for your confirmation.

Here you can find users feedback about those batteries. All of them are fake. Higher capacity requires larger size so only Mugen batteries are not fake.

Where would you say is reliable to get a new battery then? To pay 30gbp for a mugen battery is too much I think

If you need new battery - buy original one, if you need longer time, think rather of buying good 5v charger. The one for P970 is 4.8v, and some of polish lg users claim that 5v extends battery live. Think of some original microUsb charger, eg.Nokia.

I think, if you need a good product, then it's normal to pay a good price. Besides, Mugen has great customer support on Facebook http://facebook.com/mugenpowerbatteries and Twitter and through their website. They changed 1 battery for me already without issues. I rather pay a 100$ and know that I can change the battery if it does not work, rather than buying a bulk of useless junk on eBay for 10$...same goes with any other product - you can buy cheep shows and throw them away in a month, or buy good ones and wear for a year.

How much is the extended battery?

Mugen over rates their batteries by quite a bit. Check batteryboss.org

Mugen are the best and the "only" or is there any other brand....?

No such thing as free lunch. If it is much cheaper it is for a reason.
When is the last time you bought a 50 dollar gold Rolex?

But in case you feel adventurous and do buy that extended battery please do make a experience update.
I got a similar pack for my 5800 when the original battery died and to be fair performance is better than i expected for a 15 euro

sent from my new HTC Evo

has the exploding fake battery gone out of style? I remember a few years ago there were a series of incidents were batteries exploded. I suppose nothing is guaranteed, but are these batteries at least third party from a respectable place?

i'll probably go for the Sedio one http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/basi17ssn2.htm
1750 mAh without changing battery door

I use the cheap Chinese versions from Ebay with chargers. They work just as well if not identical to the original. Since I charge them in the wall, they can explode if they like.
Seriously though, I have also used the same ebay source for my wife's EVO 4G as well without issue. If fact she prefers them over the HTC red OEM's for some reason.

so many sellers
which is the preferred one?

Just throwing this out there, but authentic new Samsung batteries go for between $9 and $15 on Amazon. That's pretty cheap for peace of mind.

are they genuine oem?
care to link to one?

do exploding batteries only explode when being charged?
thanks!

I don't notice a difference in life span, and for that price for a Samsung battery, can you argue with it?

Is it one u would find at a retail store? or coming in with a phone? or a rejected one that didnt meet specs?

Even though I'm no longer a DInc1 user ( ), I still wanted to let you all know about this deal. Amazon is now selling the Seidio Innocell 3500 mAh Extended-Life Battery for only $10.91. I purchased one a few weeks ago for something like $50 before I returned it because of my new replacement phone. If you haven't picked one of these up yet I highly recommend them!

Thanks! Even though I have the 2150 I'll probably still order one of these.
Edit: just ordered the 3500. Couldn't pass it up so I'll just put my 2150 in my wife's dinc.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Wow that's a huge discount! The battery makes the phone chunky, like twice the stock thickness (maybe more?), but it is almost 3x the stock 1300mAh..

Does it come with a new back for the added size, what a deal.

I've been running mine for over a year. Still works like the day I got it. It does come with a new battery cover that's just as much a pain to get off.... in other words, it fits just and nicely as the factory cover. Damn the punk to hell who told them the price was wrong!!!! Still, at $50 it's a better deal than the cheap chinese OEM extended battery.
