I found this extended battery for the vogue. Any of you use this? If so how does it compare to the original standard battery?
that battery just showed up on the "battery scene"... it should provide more capacity based on mAh. i'm using Seidio's 2000 mAH battery it provides enough power to get me 1.5 days with normal usage.
Yeah I have that battery and anything is better than the one that comes with it. It lasts a lot longer as you would probably expect from a bigger battery. If you do get that battery it won't fit in your case anymore and the best case I found that fits it perfect by the way is this one http://swissmobility.swissmobilitystore.com/store/product/swissmobility_commander. It fits it perfect after a day of breaking it in. It is also cheaper here at this site http://www.buywirelessnow.com/smartwireless/buy/accessories/cat/615/accessory/298685 which includes the cover and free shipping.

Mind sharing pictures of what it looks like installed? Also do you know if any of the existing extended batteries would fit using the OEM extended battery door?
thanks,

Here are a few pictures. As far as other batteries fitting inside like the 2000 from seidio it probably will because they claim it will still fit in the original holster with the back you can get with it and with this HTC back it won't fit inside the original holster. This is all an assumption.
thanks for the pictures... if you have it, i'd like to see a side-shot of the phone with battery cover (similar to 3rd from left but with cover) and a bottom-shot of the phone with battery cover (looking from bottom). having an OEM cover vs. the tight Seidio cover is something i'm thinking about (not to mention having another backup battery). thx
Yo, here are the pictures you requested.

Guess I can't get the 2000mah battery then
What else you guys recommend ?
I've been thinking of getting the Treo 700wx
This is the 1500mah battery which fits with the original cover..

too expensive though, there's tons of them on ebay cheaper
Will a Extended Battery Door for a Capacity 1900 mAh battery fit a 2000mah battery?
i have the extented door for the OEM 1900 mAh battery and it easily accomodates seidio's 2000 mAh battery. in fact, the 1900 mAh battery is taller than seidio's 2000 mAh battery.
Thanks for the reply. I'm looking forward to the purchasing the door and the extended battery.
how much room is left in between the battery and the cover would you say? I want to put an led in the case for a non-flash/light. the mugen-power full case looks like it would work, but I don't want to spend $75 on a 3 year old phones battery.
Hey guys, I've been looking at extended batteries for the myTouch 3g, and I just found one on ebay. Does it seem like a good and reliable one? It says it is 3.7V Li-ion 2100mAH, but to tell you the truth, I don't really know what that means. It also comes with a cover. Will it add a ton of thickness to my phone, and do you know if the case around my myTouch will still fit?

Thanks.
Regarding your battery
Hello!
Here's my opinion on your battery.
The original battery inside your phone now is 1340mAh (milliamp hours).
The one you're looking at is 2100mAh, which for you would be a 56.71% increase in battery life.
The upside:
Ridiculous battery life
The downside:
1970's soviet era technology backing for your phone (it's terrible looking).
No accessories skins/acrylics would really accommodate your phone. You'd have to rely on a universal-type side holster.
The battery is off-brand and ships from China, the quality of these cells are unknown, and who knows how old.
Perhaps try reputable battery brands such as "Seidio" or "Mugen"
I recently purchased a Seidio 1500mAh slim profile battery, which gives me an 11.94% increase in power, whilst allowing me to keep my current backing on with NO increase in device thickness.
Couple this with some operating system tweaks and or a new rom specifically made for battery improvements and you should really enjoy from then on in.
Good Luck!
Hello,
Mugen Power is currently working on making an extended battery for HTC HD2 phone. The battery should be available on the market at the end of March.
We still do not know but it should be at least 80% more capacity than the original battery. The capacity of the original battery is 1230mAh so the extended battery should be around 2000mAh.
Thank you,
Michael
MugenBattery.com
will it fit with the original battery cover on? not the fat one?
I will definitely get it if it is of the same size as the original battery.
+1 on that. Mugen batteries are supposed to be the same quality as oem right?
Subscribing to this thread now!
If it is the same size, it is a must have item for me, and it will crush sales of the hump-backed whale battery that HTC has created.

I truly doubt that an 80% increase in battery power will be the same size as it's traditionally required an extended back cover. Not a fan of that as I appreciate the HD2's slick feel. But if battery technology has changed in that it all of a sudden can fit, then that would be called progress....
Come out with a legit 1500mah battery, michael. HTC is already doing ~2200-2400mah battery and the consensus would be that any altercation to the overall slenderness of the phone would ruin its uniqueness, so why is Mugen insisting on making one with a fatty backplate?
If you guys are making 1500mah standard size battery, I can guarantee you that I'll buy 5 of them.

I agree, it has to be the same size for me...I could have brought the offical extended battery by now but its just to ugly.
a standard-size 1300mAh from Mugen is already available: the 2000 mAh does probably have a replacement back cover
+1 on the same size deal... if I wanted to buy a bulky unwieldy phone I would go back to the 80's... if there is a good well made higher capacity (=more time) then I would def buy it...
Just to be clear, this isn't Mugen the Honda tuner?

Subscribing to this, more power, same size.... that would be very nice!
I was looking for other batteries the other weke and saw that massive HTC one with replacement cover and its the most stupid thing ever!
If they can produce a 2000mah or close to, at the same size as standard battery, im definately in for a purchase!
I will also be very impressed if it is standard size.
only buying if standard size!

2000mah battery is not going to be the same size as the standard battery lol. Had a few Mugen batteries for previous devices, will not be buying any more from them. The life expentancy of their batteries has never been good and the extra mah they managed to add to the standard size really didn't translate into any extra battery life at all.

i never own one, but thinking of getting one. i thought Mugen batts are supposed to be good quality ones? mind sharing with us your experience?
subscribing! hope like others... same size like the original battery!
I don't really know much about how easy replacing phones with bigger battery's, but is it likely that htc will sell a bigger power battery for the hd7 ie 1500 or something?
I've seen regualr replacement batterys for the HD7 advertised but not extended ones...not yet anyway.
As always, it's just a matter of time before Mugen/HTC/Seidio etc announce an extended battery.
I hope they can squeeze a true not BS 1500mAH battery in there without a new back cover. It would ruin the design.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
There are 1500mAH batteries listed on Ebay already but how can you tell if its the same old 1230mAH battery with a different sticker on it? Is it even possible to squeeze 270 more mA into a battery of the same size?
lol of course its possible.. have you seen the size of the EVO's battery??? that was 1500 and the dimensions were quiute similar to that of the HD2... so I don't see why it would make a difference
I bought an HD7 and love it. Battery life is not the greatest so I just ordered a 1500 mAh battery for it. I'll let you guys know if it is any better. BTW, the HD7 comes with a 1230 mHa battery (thanks HTC for going cheap here :-| )
Also, the Evo 4G which is almost the exact same hw device comes with a 1500 mHa out of the box.
rfleites, did you get the battery?

I have just had an email from these people saying they will be announcing an extended battery tomorrow:

They look legit.

I'm sure it works. The qustion is do you want a great big lump sticking out the back of your phone?
Hey guys I ordered the battery but now I need a case that is compatible with this 3900 mah battery.

As mentioned above the big battery sticks out the back of your phone in a great big lump (they have a picture on their site now). It will also add a lot to the weight. HTC would never release a phone like this.
Why they didn't make the HD7 just a tiny bit thicker and heavier to squeeze a 1500mAh battery in is another question though.
I am not talking about the battery cover. I am talking about a case. A leather case or any other thing i can protect my phone with so if it drops or anything i dont want any scratches etc.

Just saw the battary pic Man this thing is agly.
now I understand what you ment. No, not for me.

1500mAh?
Im not so bothered for the 3900 especially with the size of the thing!
But is there a 1500mAh replacement battery that wont need a new battery cover and that wont change the original design form factor of my HD7?
Hy did anyone bought this battery from Ebay and has some experiences ?
It's declared 2500 mah and I dont this is generic Chinese battery like Gold batteries,do you thinks it provides real 2500 mah ?

I'd like to know if this battery is any better than the stock one, too.
I like that you don't need a larger back cover with this ebay one.... Anyone any experience with this battery? Also, with the larger batteries that DO require an extended back cover, how is NFC affected?
NFC won't work, because NFC antenna is in the original back cover.

There are varieties of extra capacity batteries for 4X, up to 4800 mAh @ 3.7V, but most require some custom back cover which usually doesn't include NFC anntena, and the true capacity is in question as is the quality (longevity) of these batts. Mugen's deal is genuine (from various reviews and remarks), the back cover has NFC, but the price is just insane, $90 for the cover and battery! And they're not that great:
Good battery but new case not good

Yeah, I'm thinking the $90 for a freaking battery is way overkill on the price tag. Unless that thing had a mini-arc reactor that can power the phone for a whole year without any slowdown, then the price is warranted. I've switched my original battery for the Onite 4800mAH and the performance is just about as impressive as the touted Mugen one for more than half of the Mugen price. Average non-heavy use on a single charge goes up to at least 2 to 2.5 full days to reach zero charge.
I've also played around batteries of varying sized from the gold 2450mAH up to the 4800mAH that I now use and I have noticed that depending on which battery you use, the phone either heats up insanely fast or rarely heats up at all. The gold 2450mAH battery I have has just as much of a pitiful charge as the original battery that came with the phone but for some reason, the recorded temp rarely strays between 77°f to 88°f at it's lightest and heaviest usage. The 4300mAH battery also shows the same readings as the gold battery. The Onite one I have that is 4800mAH is almost as normal as the original battery - in that it's temp rises depending on usage from 77°f up to 110°f (110°f at the worst without any throttling at all, graphite heat sink pad included). I have no idea why that is, but if someone here can explain, please do so.
As for NFC, I barely use it at all, but I do have more than one back cover that includes the NFC antenna for extended batteries if I ever feel the need to use NFC.

A larger capacity battery without larger backcover is impossible. The capacity of a battery is directly related to it's size (using same technology). Without using a physically bigger battery it's not possible to get more capacity, unless they invent a new technology. Maybe they can squize a few more mAh in there, but that's it.
So if you want a significantly larger capacity, you have to have a battery that,s substantialy bigger and therefore require a different back-cover.

Got the battery yesterday, I'm fully charging it as we speak in an external charger. The battery itself is massive and heavy (you would think it was actually 5000mah just by visually inspecting). I will update and post back after I put it in. The back cover fits perfectly and tightly, pleasantly surprised about that.
My last extended bat was on my my touch 4g, so I have experience with them. Let's see how this pans out!
