Decided that instead of an upgrade to my phone, a new battery will eek out some more life from this one. What's the biggest capacity battery that has ZERO size issues fitting in the mogul? It's a Sprint model if that matters.
Thanks!
Fits perfectly? Do you mean no extended case?
biggest mah battery
The biggest mah battery that I have seen that fits in without te bigger back door is this one
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...os-akkumulator-sprint-htc-mogul-ppc-6800.html
They also have the most powerfull one, 3600mah and that comes with a new battery door.
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...-mogul-ppc-6800-hatlappal-in-silver-grey.html
Kind of expensive IMHO. I would go on ebay (like I did) and buy one there for 10 - 15 bucks depending on which one. Make sure it states 'new' and gives the mah rating. some batteries say bigger capacity but don't tell you anything about the rating.... There are 3000 mah extended with a door for 12.99 free shipping. Even the label on the battery is the same as OEM except the actual logo....
yeah 1 already buy extended battery the price around 12 usd, shipped from Hongkong.
i think the battery capacity not 3000mah (even in spec said so) i just feel little enhancement from my previous battery
maybe if you want to buy extended battery, try to buy mugen the original one.
For posterity I wanted to point some readers to batteryboss.org
Reviews batteries and there are a lot of scammers out there.
saw it today morning on ebay, price about 18 usd w/o shipping costs (about 2 usd). i think to order that one, coz original htc 2300 mah still not available to ship and mugen 2600 mah is more expensive (64 usd w/o shipping costs).

Thanks for sharing.
Nearly got the 1600 mAh. think i will switch my eye on this. and yeah 18 usd compare to mugen is cheap!

so do i.
awaiting for an 1600 mah one and decided to got 2400 mah.
Now the question is, is it really 2400mAh as it claims to be?
1600mAh Andida (from china) performs close to the OEM, but not more.

i think leo with this battery is about 17mm (with stock battery - 11mm).
the phone would get so bulky that it's scary
Anyway, considering they are including a 2400mAh battery and a custom back metal cover (admitting it's metal and not some kind of plastic) for 20USD total, I'd love to see a proportionally priced spare vanilla metal back cover, which would be less than half, everything considered. Alas, all metal back covers I've seen are way more expensive than that.
so yay or nay? bulk isn't going to be too much of an issue. I wouldn't mind swapping depending on what I needed... be even better to have a dock that will charge the hd2 with the extended battery on, and have the original "spare" charging on the back.
Cover looks like plastic to me.
yeahh..... I ordered the 1600 mAh lol no need for that big ass cover and it only cost me $10 so.... yeh

Yup, it's true.. I now have 3 batteries (1500, 1600 and original) and they're all basically the same. Dirt cheap replacements though which is good on it's own
Just hate the thick back of the extended version, the thin-ness of the HD2 makes it pocketable regardless the size. Wonder if that still will be the case with the extended battery.

Couldn't agree more with you, dude!
The trouble with all these extended batts are that they make our Leos look FAT on their centre.... kinda like having beer bellies!
big belly?
Well, i'd rather have hard working phone with big belly, than skinny 1 pulling trailer with extra power? lmao, I don't mind little extra depth, it will still go in pocket fine 5mm, or 10mm? lol, won't keep it out of my pocket. Just concerned about new case? I use Imagnum,flip style!! OH OH?

I just bought the ebay 2400mah with plastic cover and it doesnt seem to be double the original. 31% at the end of a day of light/moderate usage. the cheap price makes it no loss, but I really dont think it is a true 2400. i'll compare some more though...

I also bought Cameron Sino 2400mAH HD2 extended battery from ebay. Actually the capacity is almost double the standard 1300mAH battery but there is a trick! After the battery goes flat and auto off you need to take out the battery for a while and fix it back. Restart, then the battery meter will display 50% battery level and it can continue for normal 50% usage!!
I am still puzzling why this thing happen and hope anybody have solution to this. Thanks!
Seem this issue still don't have any solution. No choice! I try to get help from Cameron Sino (manufacturer for HD2 2400mAH extended battery) to see whether they have solution on this issue. Below the write up:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Sir,
I am recently purchased a Cameron Sino HD2 2400mAH extended battery from eBay. The battery is well build and the cover also well fitted onto my HD2. The problem I face is the battery is having compatibility issue that I need to do extra step to utilize full power of the Cameron Sino extended battery. Below the issue:
•The battery can be full charge and the HD2 is showing 100% battery level after full charge.
•To my surprise, the battery power draining rate seem not much different from standard non extended 1300mAH battery that it not justify for the extra thick battery and cover
•When it goes down less than 10% or zero power, I try to switch off the HP, remove the battery from battery bay for a few second then fix back, power on back the phone. The HD2 battery meter now indicate 50% battery power remaining and it can be continue use until goes to zero.
I would say this kind of issue is compatibility issue that it shouldn’t behave this way, It is very troublesome to off-power, remove back cover, remove battery, fix back battery, fix back cover, power on again to gain back another 50% battery power. It should be slowly drain down power (after full charge) with much slower drain down rate and goes completely zero as what normal Li-Ion battery behave.
Pls look into this issue seriously as I already feedback to xda developer forum on this issue that a lot of potential buyer will reluctant to purchase this 2400mAH extended battery because of this issue. I hope you can provide a battery driver solution and I should try to install. I will update to the forum when this issue is fixed, else the issue will remain open and it definitely will discourage people to buy this battery due to this issue.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hope Cameron Sino will provide solution to this issue and I should update once I gotten the reply. Stay tune!
DealExtreme now have a 3500 mAh battery with cover Link
However I don't think it's 3500 mAh and the quality is probably low and it wont be water resitance because it miss the extra internal cover for the battery.
there is such topic already, and this battery is the same, that already more than month selling on ebay
It's thicker than stock. I have ordered one similar to that as well. Just waiting on it to arrive. There is another topic here that is already about extended batteries for the defy. Your link does include the rear battery cover. However, I would not try and dip that in water unless you put some kind of waterproofing on the replacement back cover. Getting better battery life for cheap does have its disadvantages as well. Unless some company makes one that retains water resistance with a large battery and replacement back cover.

Oh it exist a topic like that already. I missed the "Extended Battery Idea" topic ._.
Anyway Dealextreme is a more know seller then ebay sellers so I would go for Dealextreme insted of ebay.
agree, i might consider the larger battery
This is really interesting! I want one too but if any of you were to buy it, i would be cautious since dealxtreme is known for having cheap chinese made products, theres an american company i found online that sells this battery: http://www.wirelessground.com/motorola-defy-extended-high-capacity-battery.html just sayin
Another dealextreme 3500mAh
Now there's also this one:
dealextreme.com/p/3500mah-rechargeable-extended-battery-pack-cover-for-motorola-mb525-73564 - 3500mAh Rechargeable Extended Battery Pack + Cover for Motorola MB525
In addition to the previous

Both back cases have no waterproofing. As (remaining) capacity is probably more related to age of the battery than to price; I would pick the newer white one. Anyway, you only loose $11 instead of ~$30 for the ebay options.
I just got a D.Seven extended battery for US$13
Its more than double the thickness of a normal battery, comes with an extra cover which makes you lose the waterproofness....and my shell doesnt fit now, the phone is now damn bulky...
Dont think i'll be using it anytime soon, unless going camping or something
Iit would have created a smaller battery

Hi.
And what about the battery life ? Huge improvement ? Or insignificant ? Thx for the test.
It would be so uncomfortable to carry it after using this battery.
so....is it works?
at least should have double time usage with this battery....
... right?
I tested my D.Seven 3000ma battery....battery life increased by 20 - 30% only...
Hey guys i am planning to buy a little boost to my hd2. I like to buy an extended battery+battery door with kick stand+protective backcase ( that flexible cover pannel which protects from drops,scratches etc)
And the problems are, as i never used an extended battery b4, i dont know which one is good, is there any 3000+ mA version?
Have any one used such a higher capacity one which realy works? Also i need the battery door with kick stand.
The other thing is that can i get a protective case that supports the dimensions (ie,the backdoor bulge when using an extended battery) of extended battery??
Guys pls help me out. I am from india and so pls provide me a dealer that ships to india.
Thanks in advance.

You could buy something like this :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2400mAh-Extended-Battery-Door-Cover-For-HTC-HD2-HD-2-/220713693102?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item33638fafae
Free shipping to India. When it comes to original extended battery it is almost impossible to find it..
The one linked above can be found as cheap as £3.99, the quality of the rear door as very poor & battery is closer to 1800mAh than 2400.
If budget & availability exists get original HTC extended battery or look at the CS extended battery as another cheap easily sourced option.
Looked both links. Confused... as always.. hundreds of options.( in ebay itself). thats why i asked for some one who used a real extended battery. I meen pls provide a link to a battery that is real extended and not fake china ones,which any of u have used( i never gonna belive or buy by checking wht internet says), and is proved good.
Also need a backdoor with kickstand and a protective case tht support extended batterie's backdoor.
Currently i am using the default battery and with a flexible shell type protective case. The case is originaly for desire hd. But hd2 fits into it perfectly. All i have to do is to cut open a little portion of case for led flash and speaker. ( lol.. spend almost a week in search of hd2 protective case in almost entire state itself. No luck. So bought this one)
HD2 HYPERDROID EXTREME EDITION V6.0.1 @ FIKERT KERNAL.
Why don't you just buy a spare battery+external charger? I have bought those from dealextreme it was less than 10$ and after 6months I'm still very happy with it
Simply the best one with kick stand quality back cover & only one with genuine quoted mAh is HTC genuine extended battery.
Second option is Mugen but it is as expensive as HTC genuine & mAh rating is a little over stated & back door is not as good.
The HTC genuine also has no issues using all cell power but some cheaper ones require pulling & re-inserting at 50% level.
The cheaper ones on eBay are appalling quality all round & a pointless bulge with little extra power.
Conclusion=Only decent extended battery & kickstand door is HTC one so search eBay or mobile stores & find one shipping to India.

I bought an official HTC extended battery from this ebay user and it's holds up great, if your like me and use you're HD2 a lot during the day this battery is a must have. Here's a review/info for it http://youtu.be/LgKiMSSX9Rw.
For a case that fits an extended battery go to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1316516
P.S. make an offer for the battery i got mines for $38.
Cheap standard sized CS battery with worldwide shipping is £5.35 at moment on eBay.
Not bad for spare or to get an old battery dead HD2 running for a while, also good for those with no local options ...
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120887562999
Good thing is if never arrives or does not meet your standards the chance of full refund is very high ...
One hint:
If ur planning to buy a cheap ass battery, you can even better use ur stock battery, cause these cheap battery's can only destroy ur hd2.. and doesn't expand the lifetime that much.

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:

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.

And its cheaper than Aku,what do you think ? I have two 1800 mah golden batteries,one doesnt work and I plan to order stronger battery for daily use and leave stock and gold for backup
I can recommend this battery it gives more time of use

keep us updated
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!
