I bought the same one on eBay and it works great.

NICE ... Did you get the extra battery and where ?

I bought the Seidio 1500 mAH battery that is the same size the OEM one. Works great.

how long does the SEDIO battery last in comparision? worth $40???

I would like to know as well, thanks

I also purchased one of these crades off of ebay, and when I got it, I could either charge a battery, OR dock my phone in it. Doing both results in neither working. Took it apart, found a short in one of the wires going to the LED's. Fixed it, and now it works great.

My biggest gripes about the "ebay" docks is the standard USB connector. Since its not the HTC connector, you can't do audio through external speakers while docked.
I'm going to take mine apart and attach the split cable that came with my phone so I can.

Yall need to check out boxwave.com, look at their armor cases too

Could you all post a pic of your cradle, that ebay item was removed.

Yes Seidio Is Worth It.
I use the BASI15HTCH 1500mAh battery which over trippled the life compared to the battery the phone comes with. The original cover DOES fit without issue. I am not sure why HTC didn't just put this battery in the phone in the first place. My phone will go all weekend between docking charges in my office without a problem.

power skin

Anyone think the power skin case would work for our hd2 that they made for the EVO or for that matter the HD7? I'd love to get this case! Double battery!
Thoughts?!?
http://www.power-skin.com/battery-cases/ap1507evo/htc-evo-powerskin.html

It be great if it works... but I doubt it. I'm not sure if the size of the two devices are the same.
Don't figure anyone would be willing to test.

Check here: uTube Link

I am glad I came across this forum post. I will be getting me a powerskin.

Ofcourse it will work, since what you are doing is not different from charging the phone. I mean you connect this battery via miniusb to the phone so i see no reason why it shouldn't work. I think the right question would be if the device will show it as an extended battery or as the phone being charged. I think you get what i am trying to say.

It will show it being charged as normal. Just wish they sold it in the UK ... without the huge delivery charge on ebay.

Just found this:
OEM T-Mobile Protective Cover w/ Battery Boost for HTC HD2
The reviews don't seem to be too good, and I'm nt frm the US, but guessing someone might want this

Hi ppl why you want to buy something that makes the phone ugly, big ,non pocket friendly and you have to carry it. If i checked correct it charging the phone up to 85%. If you don't have problem to carry something with you you can choose zagg which can charge hd2 almost 4 times or you can carry a Chinese battery from eBay which is really cheap and smaller . For me because this is a problem i choose this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320646241073
Same size without changing battery cover
This is my opinion guys sorry for my bad English

Ty for the reply,
About the zagg, I don't want to carry along something that is detached from my phone, because I like to keep it in my pocket; I admit this makes it thicker, but I got extra big pockets just in case - sales assistant stared at me cluelessly when I asked for jeans/cargo trousers with the biggest pockets.
About the 2430mah Chinese battery, it's stated capacity is a lie - hence a waste of money.

LOl theres no way the fit an extra 1000mah in the same size battery. Im no expert at batteries but it isnt physically possible. I guess most xda members wear skinny jeans or something.

Wow that thing is huge and ugly imo. I get great life out of my battery using hyperdroid GBX...ever since I have been using that rom I have not once thought about an exteded battery.

I bought this from ebay for $13 w/free shipping. Just got it today. Hd2 is 2mm x 1mm x .5mm smaller than the hd7, so it is a little loose. But barely loose. Still fits, and stays put, doesn't slide around. Hd7 power and battery ratings are the same as hd2, so it is fully compatible. Works great! Doesn't actually add to your total maH, but you have a gel cover with a built in 1500 maH battery that charges your phone when needed. The result- led is always green or amber, so no flashing led when message is received. Also, there is no data pass through, so you have to take the case off to sync with your pc. The case comes off easily though. Case takes the same usb connector as the phone, so you can use your charger. Since it is a case, the overall size increase is uniform, unlike the pregnant bulge of an extended battery. Still, I'm going to get an extended battery just to have it and check it out. I recommend this case.

Hi, i wonder how much extra working ours you get using this case, ? some 10hrs more ?

My mom owns an HTC HD7, I tried one of her cases on my phone, and it fit perfectly, however the problem is that the volume rocker is on the other side so it makes it difficult to change the volume on the phone

how much extra hrs you get with this case ?

I was thinking of getting one of these (or an extended battery) but I just bought a portable charger. It's 2300 mah (almost 2 extra full charges) for only $30.

POWERSKIN only 4.99$
POWERSKIN only 4.99$ but not available for FRANCE ....fk...

now even 0,01$ and i think shipping to europe is possible as i could choose it on checkaout. Shipping 14,95$

you could order one? and you probably did...
i had a master plan of ordering few of them, sending them to someone in europe who can order them and sending them to everyone across the continent who wanted one.

Mutimedia Desktop Dock

Hello again, Nerdz.
This review will be for the all mighty docking station with built in battery charger and spare battery. I found it for $49.97 and received a 20% discount with the purchase of two other accessories. One of which was the Power and Protection Package that was aleady marked down by 25 dollars and I still received the 20% off of the damn box as well. I hope your experience will be as excellent as mine. (Father's Day weekend) I scored an awesome wife..
After a long hard day of work the last thing you wanna do is stare at your phone. So I give you the DOCKtor. It is your basic docking station with one micro USB port for the power pusher. It has a recessed area for the USB port protector and can also fit the phone with the expanded battery attached. The battery port is also equipped to fit the fat beast of a battery you may or have purchased. it has a light indicator for the charging battery. (Red, Yellow, Green) and a nice white LG logo that illuminates once the phone is docked. DESKHOME launches and automatically displays the digital time.
Let go of your phone and enjoy your much bigger monitor sitting on your desk. This works great with the HDMI cord plugged into my HDTV and the AUX from the sound system leading into the phone. It is a nice way to ignore the ROKU and tell it, "anything you can do my phone can do better!"

Ask if you want more or different pictures.

What case is that in those pics? Do you like it? The stand looks kind of awesome, but I can't tell if the bulk of it is distracting at all.

also curious about which case you got.

Very true. Just a heads up, Verizon sells it for $29.99 plus tax. Amazon? $17.00, no shipping. I love mine. I had on my phone for 20 minutes, then my twin 18 month old boys and I were playing, one little guy reached in my pocket and ran off in 2.5 seconds. Then it went across the room, and off the dining room table, bounced off the floor and out the door as my wife was coming in the house. It finally rested on my concrete patio. It was ridiculous! Phone? Perfect. Case? Barely a scratch.

I've had two different desktop docks and has anyone else noticed that when they painted them, they left some spots thin so you can see light shine thru. It was better on my second one, but there are still spots.

+1on the belt clip case with the fold out stand....works great. I got it from the verizon website when i ordered my revo.
The desktop dock is on the vzw website, amazon, etc.

Thanks for sharing.

I have that same case but I was having problems with the phone getting very hot. I was wondering if anyone else experienced this problem?

I haven't had the heating issue. My only complaint is they don't make that case for an extended battery. otherwise, I love it. fits the holster nice...Its good.

I saw that on their site, too. (LINK) At that price I'm going to pass and wait for the aftermarket ones to show up on eBay.
-Brett.

Has any one tried this dock, just wanted to see if it would work if I had a case around. The last time I got one for Desire HD it fit perfectly but then I could not use a hard/soft case.

Well call it a test.
So, although there are not any charging docks out there for the HTC Vivid, there are charging docks out there for similar phones. That being said, I'm going to purchase this...
generic looking charging dock​...for the HTC Thunderbolt and see how well it works. I figure I might have to give it some support in the back, but all in all it should be a good fit, not to mention the extra battery charging slot will be useless. I'm also going to pick up one of these...
window mount charging docks​...and modify it so the Vivid will fit. The Vivid is .2" wider than the thunderbolt, so I figure it'll just make for a more tight fit.

charging dock and Car Mount
I bought few months ago this car mount (Exomount) from Amazon, I use 2 of them one at home and one in the car, It can hold anything so I use it as dock station too, So far it never failed me I drive around 6 hrs a day and its always sticked to my windshield never had problem with it, plus its cheap $ 15 sorry cant post links just search at Amazon "Exomount Universal Car Mount".

Vivid and dock or on the way from AT&T. Will post pics ASAP and answer any questions. I work for AT&T so I will report back on which cases still fit in the dock, if any, that we sell.

As an update to my original post, I received the window mount that I listed and after cutting off the far left side (the part the wraps around the top corner of the phone) it fit perfectly and it initiates the car mode when I put my phone in. The only downside is that it doesn't work with my TPU case in, but I think I have a plan to fix that

In a weak moment, I coughed up the $50 for this dock. At lease it comes with another wall-to-USB plug and a micro-USB cord. It works great, but I don't use a case. It is a snug fit. I doubt that it would work with any but the thinnest cases (without modification).

do you have a dock that automatically enters dock mode?
Does anybody have a dock, Car or Desk that automatically places the phone into dock mode? As I understand it other docks use a resistor between pins 4 and 5 to place the phone into dock mode. If you have a dock that automatically places your phone into dock mode, could you measure the resistance between pins 4 and 5. I've tried the 365K ohms suggested in another thread but it does not seem to have any effect.
Thanks.

I will try and post this tomorrow.

I have a resistance substitution box so I ran through a bunch of values. What I found is from about 12K to 9.8K Car Dock Mode is selected. From 1000K to 500K Desk Mode is selected. So I selected 10K for Car Mode and build a cable that seems to work. For Desk Mode I'd like to use 680K.
Then again. looking at these numbers I'm not too sure about the Desk Mode numbers I think they may be off by an order of magnitude, so I'm going to run those tests again. Ignore the Desk Mode number for now.

Bought the dock from AT&T (online) today after I got tired looking for one. Free 2 day shipping plus the cords included so that helped feel not so bad for it. I'll let yall know if it fits with the TPU case.

I just made this makeshift stand for mine for free with little materials.It may not be the prettiest but it does the job.Im going to glue rubber to the bottom and fill it with something heavy like sand or lead tomorrow.Works great here at home!Beef Jerky can,zip ties,and paper clips.Works for now!I decided to use the can so my volume button can be placed at the top while plugged in.Holds it in landscape or portrait mode.

I was supposed to get a free Titan but the store screwed up, I had already bought a cheap titan dock from ebay for like 9 shipped. fits the vivid great!

magnet micro usb charge cable cheapo

got this cheapo magnet cable from aliexpress (will find the link later) ordered it weeks ago.
seems to charge at 8.8V @ 1.6A so its not bad for us$4 shipped.
makes it difficult to use a standard cable now. although there are better designed ones for $12 which are thinner and don't stick out as much.
video of cable is use and fast charging current voltage:

Link to what you ordered please
Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

link is dead 404 maybe just too cheap. $3.82 each, lucky i got a few.
anyway $10 for the thinner better ones isnt too bad, here's the search link:
www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?Search...9&initiative_id=SB_20160316041032&needQuery=y
if this cheap one can carry the current then im sure the brand name ones can too.
i have sent msg to seller about why his not selling anymore, when i bought them i could select 10+ units, but it was actually more costly, so i bought one by one
the magnet is actually too strong as my tablet usb port is a little larger so the connector comes out with the cable, a little glue will fix it though.
where as the s7 edge port is tight, needs dental floss to pull out
overall very convenient for sure.

@h3ck $10 to much for ya?
heres another $4 one, looks thinner too... http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Magn...Charger-Charging-Cable-White/32624008438.html

That looks pretty terrible imo, but for the price, I can see why.
I'm still waiting for Znaps to come out:
http://www.znaps.net/collections/micro-usb-version

yeah its no god for a $1k phone but is perfect for my tablet.
i ordered the thin looking one so will see how that turns out.

This is the same one I'm using, small plug, cable is very soft, good for holding your phone while charging, so the cable won't snap off easily.
Btw i tried with QC2.0 charger can get 9v 1.5-1.6a
Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Are these connections such that direction doesn't matter? In other words, can you rotate the cable 180 degrees and it still connects and charges properly?

@meyerweb yes kinda like reversible usb-c but with needing to plug in, doesnt matter what angle, it will snap in the correctly - the whole point is the total ease of use.

Cool. Thank you. At home I generally just plop the phone down on a wireless puck, but this would be great for the car.

I saw this on ebay and bought it.

Got it and it's complete crap. The portion that goes into your device will not stay in the device. So the magnet is strong enough to pull it right out. Spent $4 on it and I don't think it's even worth that. I contacted the seller, we'll see what happens. Buyer beware!

I just ordered this one for $3.98. I hope the quality doesn't suck.
The other ones looked like they are too wide at 17mm width to be used inside a case.

SWEETLF one on Amazon is about the best you'll find. I've been using it for months now.
