just wondered if anyone has had any luck with the likes of 3rd party batteries rated @2000+ ?
was looking thru the bay, but a lot of f/b keeps saying they are worse than stock
has anyone tried Anker batteries for HTC Sensation on XL? does it fit perfectly? is it worthed getting an upgrade?
Call me old fashioned or lame but Im running stock and with a heavy amount of use and barely have any drain on the battery at all? the stock battery is 9000!!!!! ok its 1600mAh but thats enough for moi.
Didnt HTC say they were focussing on bettery battery life with newer models/newer ROMs?
I bought a ankler battery and fitted it earlier, will let you know how it goes tomorrow.

oh also u might want to also clear battery stats maybe that would fix the 89% thingy?
[HLI-APX515CSL] 1950mAh battery was announced compatible for Sensation XL by Mugen Power
I dont know what happend and I dont want to risk it again. It just got stuck in boot loop and I had no idea why

Anker
Ordered 2 Anker batteries (1900mAh, Sensation compatible). They work fine on the Sensation, Sensation XL and EVO 3D. Happy days
Anyone have any idea how good is the mugen 1950 mAh I want to order one but I need some feedback! From some one already using it of course Thanks

theres a huge thread in regards to 1950 mah mugen vs 1900 mah anker somewhere in xda... it seems that people are saying that they are slightly better than anker even though they are both 1750mah battery in the inside... but for that kind of price i went straight to anker with no 2nd thoughts lol... i rather buy 2 ankers for 40 bucks than 1 mugen so at least i have 2 spares when i go on holidays =D
Mines quite happily using a 1730ah from a standard sensation at the moment. I think i need to hard reset it though, as it seems only to charge to approx 89%, and i know it did used to work all the way to 100.
meh.

Welcome to the club. I stuck in a 1900mAh Anker and it only charges up to 89% as well. What ROM are you on?

And further to that, just grabbed the battery from the evo and it's just popped up to 91%. I'll see if it goes all the way up.
I did notice however, that while the sensation and evo batteries have the same mah and model number, they are not the same.
the evo is 3.8v and 6.57Whr
The sensation is 3.7v and 6.40Whr.
The XL is 3.8v and 6.08Whr (smaller capacity)
Seems the XL might need the extra 0.1v to go all the way to 100%.
UPDATE: Yup, the evo battery charged all the way to 100%, so it looks like the 89% thing could be down to the voltage maybe....

I will stick the Anker into my EVO 3D and XL will have to do with EVO's battery, will see how that goes.
Because Anker in my old Sensation charges to 100% just fine and I read somewhere that it might be a voltage issue, Anker is limited to 4.2V and XL wants to go up to 4.3V for some reason.

Wiped it lots of times, doesn't help. It's a voltage issue. Unless some developer comes up with the workaround the 4.3V charge requirement we will be stuck.

EVO 3D 1750mAh battery charges fine in the XL. And the Anker charges fine in the EVO. Will have to go with that arrangement for now.

So, after much thought I've decided to get the sensation xl on the 3 network here in the uk. Which comes with unlimited data!
Has anybody got any tips for me?.. Recommend apps etc?.
The phone is being delivered to me sometime today!
Download appbrain app, aswell as best apps to keep upto date with what's new. Also blackmart alpha is good.
Search the rooting method on these forums and patiently await custom roms as I am doing. Enjoy your handset!

I'm on 3 too! And I love the unlimited data without a fair usage policy =D
I'd recommend Tubemate. It's a YouTube video downloader for Android. It's not available on the market but they have an official website where you can get it from (beware of fake apps!)
You can download plenty of HD vids that look and sound amazing on this device. I know it isn't the best screen but I still think it is awesome =]

Thank for the info mate.
You would have thought with it being a 4.7 in screen the screen would hav been up there with the original sensation! I can't believe the screen gas been downgraded!
Also the loud speaker quality is a big fail! You would hav thought with being a big phone, you would get big sounds!!
HTC need some lessons in making there phones louder!

Count yaself lucky, i went for the Droid Razr, and to be honest im gutted, i wish id seen this phone before the Razr. The speaker quality is actually really good on the Razr though wanna swap?
I hope your enjoying you're sensation XL for me it has been already the best htc I've owned and battery life is perfect just to think what scripts may do to improve the already great battery life and new roms including ICS is well worth the wait!

I agree totally. I was apprehensive at first seeing as everyone criticized it's apparent "downgrade" from previous HTC devices, but I am more than satisfied. I have yet to find fault with it and even the limited memory capacity doesn't bother me in the slightest

Hi, first welcome
And I have had the exact same issue. I clean wiped everything and I still got the same problem.
I have flashed 1.5 today so I will let you know. It hasn't happened yet so I am hopeful.
Did it start to charge after a restart? That's what mine did.
cb.de did say there was a lot of permission conflicts in the thread so it could have been down to that. We will see.

hi guys,,
i am using my xl since 6 mnths wid out any problem but since last 10 days when i full charge my battery as it shows green light,, i unplugged my charger and after i unplugged my charger in about 30 sec or 40 sec battery turns 99%..
i want to mention dat my battery runs about 1and half day wid normal use and my phone is not rooted and its on stock 4.0.3!!!
can any 1 help to solve dis problem!!!
thanxxxx
You can't do anything. Beside that HTC and other manifactures do so, that 10% of the battery to drain faster in order to keep it longer allive. So from 100% till 90% always drops like stone in water
But you can always try another battery just to be sure that your battery is ok.....
Yep thats normal, my sxl holds about the same time and do like yours

The problem is that I've charged it for 15hours and indicates that it has done 88%.....and it won't seem to go anymore than than .......please if anyone encountered the same problem n managed to fix it let me know.

Recalibrating the battery should also be an option, as i don't have any of those batteries i can't really test things, as from i've seen right now, the drivers should adapt to the custom voltages, but i can't tell for sure, and calibrating is also not really good if the device can't carge to 100%, but you can always try
Do you wipe battery ?
