did any1 got this monster ?
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...d-battery-for-htc-legend-bb00100-1800mah.html
it's about 47$
if u do please tell me how it performs ... i heard and read that legend battery isn't quite impressive :| ... i really like this phone ! if someone tried tell me plz! i'm lookin 2 buy a legend myself ( i own a blackstone and is ... about same thing : with light usage hardly 2 days ! )
Legend battery sucks. Anyone had any experience with the mugen brand?
To bad they dont tell what the Whr of the battery is.
And all the "reviews" are of other batteries and a few years old.
Wonder how the managed to engineer a 50% bigger capacity battery in the legend since there is no margin for any physical increase of the battery.
jjs87: Why? The battery can't run on a different voltage so the capacity in mAh is clear enough.
Has the battery been tested?
Any new infos?
come on guys we wanna know!

If you're that anxious, why don't you buy it yourself, then you can post your findings here..
Can't we find find those batteries for a bit less expansive?
47 € is not particuliary expansive, but if I can find for less money it would be cool.

I haven't bought it yet because my Legend is new
And for that i Don't know it's real power. At the end of The day with 3g or WiFi always on i have about 30-50% for now.
I bought one, but it is currently out of stock. I think, it will ship July 9th?
When I receive it, I will review it and post my results. I am surprised someone has not yet already done this.
Someone on a Dutch forum has this battery and will report in a few days. I will post his findings here!
tks, i look forward to know how it behaves, but from what i've red, Mugen is an awsome brand with lots of quality products.
lets wait and see

Did he buy it from the same place TC posted or did he get it from a shop in Holland?
I hope the latter since I'm anxious for a hicap battery for my Legend
Yes, I think he bought it on the same website. He hasn't posted anything at the moment though..
Edit:
First review from a Dutch forum (translated from Dutch, so it might be a little iffy):
I've got the Mugen Power Extended Battery for HTC 1800mAh Legend BB00100 a few days now. Enough time (following the instructions) to fully charge and empty the battery a few times. I drained the battery by leaving the phone running Google Maps navigation. Yesterday and today was the first normal use.
Old situation: Before I had this battery, I was happy if the battery could make it through one working day. With light use in the morning, and in the evening with 40-50% left to do some web browsing. If I didn't put it on the charger at night, the next morning it was about 15%, not enough to start the day. Under normal to heavy use I never made it to the end of the day without charging in between.
New situation: With the same kind of usage it's about 70% in the evening. Again some web browsing before bed and no charger. This morning there was still 43%.
Conclusion: I still put it on the charger because I'm still unlikely to make it through an entire day. But what's clear is that I can make it easily through one day even with heavier use, no more charging in between. That makes the purchase worth for me.
Don't expect that you now can navigate for hours without draining your battery because that won't change. That was exactly what I hoped it would cause. Nothing more annoying than a device to with normal to heavy use that won't make it through one day. Striking is that the Battery Graph program (from where I get these measurements) shows that this battery longer stays at 100% and about as steep downhill runs compared to the standard battery.

Hi,
What about the size of the Mugen Power Extended 1800mAh Battery? Is it the same size as the original 1300mAh one? If not, how much bigger it is? Any photos?
On Mugen website it says:
"The extra size and weight increases pale into insignificance when you consider the true convenience the battery gives... it represents excellent value for money."
Thanks!
hey guys, consider searching a topic i think it's here @ xda about batteries.
It's ridiculous, the best battery currently is the original one from HTC.
All the others either don't have the announced capacity, or don't fully charge.
if I find it i'll update this post.

Thanks, Mafiatounes. I thought that logically, but was confused by the statement on Mugen's website ("The extra size and weight...").
So, is it worth buying?
For me its worth buying my legrnds standard battery runs for 8h of heavy use and I need about 12h at least I think only mugen can provide that amount of power

I've really wanted to get a bigger battery, not necessarily a bigger phone. I was looking up videos on youtube, and I found a guy who actually bought one of those verizon silicon cases and used that instead of having a new backing for his phone because the battery was so much bigger. Do you guys really find not having to charge your phone for 20-30 hours worth the extra cover and stuff? I'm sure it's not an option for everyone, but why bother with that if you can just charge it sometime in between? Car chargers are cheap, and there should be some time of sleep between 20-30 hours of you using your phone (you know, where you could be charging it). Also, what is the biggest battery you can get without requiring an extra case?
The 2150 mah battery is perfect for me. The new back protects the camera lense and the leds. I have also noticed that I can hold the phone by the extended back and it feels more comfortable then before.It doesn't add that much weight and the phone is still pretty slim. Obviously I also get improved battery life as well.
I have been using the 1750 battery and it improved my battery life from 6-8 hours to 9-12ish, which is perfect for me. I just needed to make it through the work day and the regular size works for me.
I couldn't go to a bigger battery, since I have a case that works for me and I don't want to change.

My 2 cents... I have the 2150. I still go through it once or sometimes twice a day. I dont like the way it feels in my front pocket and the fact there isn't much at all if any accessories that will fit it. I just ordered (4) 1500mah batteries and 2 charges off of eBay for a whopping $20. shipped. I can use the 2150 when I am out and not near a charger or just sell it and carry extra 1500's if needed.

At that price, it sounds like you bought some off-brand garbage. While I hope that's not the case, could you please confirm/deny? What brand are these batteries?
I need the extra battery...was out today using the stock one and was dead after 5 hours (3 hours I was using My Tracks on my run). I don't care about accessories, I just need it to not run out of charge.
I find the extra ummph in the 2150 battery to be worth the lil bulge in the back....modded a silicon case with a cutout to let the excess...works pretty well and couldnt be happier...the only downfall i found so far is the charge time is nearly 4 hrs from a completely dead battery...never really timed it but it takes a while, but worth it.

I'm not sure which one he's using, but I'm using the Seido 1750. My battery life is...decent, I guess. If I bump charge. After reading so many threads on battery life for Android phones and, specifically, HTC Android phones, I'm left wondering a few things:
1. Since HTC seems to have issues charging batteries fully...if we're wiping Battery Stats appropriately (assuming you are rooted), does the phone actually "register" that it's got such a large battery to charge? Or is the phone so stupid that it stops charging it at a 1500's capacity?
2. When apps sync their data, is Android OS smart enough to have them sync at the same time? Or, does my 30 minute Facebook sync occur 10 minutes after my 30 minute Twitter sync, etc.?
New to the forums guys, it was a round-about way I got my Incredible, extended battery, and seidio battery but here is my opinion on this. If you're not gonna use it heavily throughout the day then you can get away with the 1500/1750 batteries. But if you think you're gonna get some solid use out of the phone for a day, you don't want to have to charge it throughout the day, or you don't want to have to rush home and charge it before you go out then you should get an extended battery. Using both over the past week to see which one I want to stick with, the extended is just more convienient since I don't have to think about how much battery i'm at and remember to put it on a charger.
There is a guy on here who modified his case to accommodate the 2150 battery and after seeing that I think that's what i'm gonna do. If you can get the extended cheap then definitely go for it, its just more freedom in my opinion.
Why do you want to go to an Incredible? I thought the X was a better device. Just too big? I have yet to see an Evo or X so I have know idea how big these things are.

did you get lost? your in the Incredible section of the forum, so there will bee a predominant amount of Dinc users here.
And I'd rather have an Incredible over that piece of Moto anyday
I recently bought a 2700mAh extended battery. I don't mind the extra thickness, it allows me to get a better grip on it. As for battery life its great. With the stock battery I could barely make it through 8hours at work. With the new battery I have made it 10hours and counting. I have had GPS, Sync, WiFi, and max screen brightness on all day and only at 73%. Made a few phone calls, and a few Twitter updates. Was worth it.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
No I didn't get lost. I was just curious what he did not like about the X. I would rather have an X but HTC phones are much easier to hack. A Dinc hacked on to Sprint Sero is hard to say no too. I would have done an Evo but used prices on an EVO are still ridiculous and I'm waiting for HTC sort out it's display issues.
Back to the topic at hand. I'm liking my Seidio 1750. With some tweaks I'm getting better battery life then my 3GS got. I make it through a whole day of moderate usage (some web, some streaming and 5-10 calls) and still have 20% at bed time. So I'm quite happy. Someone did point out a thread on Android Central. I won't return the battery but it did dampen my spirits a little.

I have had the 3500, for a week. Lasts 2x the 1750 (have one) and the door design is more rugged and protects the lens well.
Worthy purchase.
I had the HTC 2150mah and returned it. I just couldn't live with the bulk.
I bought both 1750 and 2150 from HTC Pedia. They are both HTC BRAND batteries. They both work well and add work time to my INCREDIBLE. Don't buy anything but brand and you will be happy! I found HTC PEDIA to be the best place to buy accessories for my phone!

I recently got mine and I will leave a review on it on this thread in a week or so. Apparently the battery gets better and better if you charge it right, after about a week. That and I have a couple programs I'm trying, to correctly recalibrate it. Battery Left widget, Battery Monitor, which measures it by mAv rather than regularly. And Battery Calibrator, which deletes the battery file in the phone, and remakes it. I have the most hope in that one. Can anyone else give a review on a good program to CORRECTLY calibrate this battery?
i purchased one of these myself a while ago and unless quality has improved, i was hugely disapointed for the cost
the 2 internal elements of the battery are 'stuck together' with a black tape style surround. This causes after some use of separate device charging ( charging in a charger and not the phone ) the battery to lose its shape causing the streak to think a battery is not present

The 4800mAh one doesn't have a clip. And the only thing I don't like about this battery is the fact that the cover is plastic. But I'm in love with the battery itself. I've done everything I can to make it die. Streak's overclocked to 1.2gHz. Backlight's up. Bluetooth is on. Wifi is on. Even been playing music a -lot-. It's been off a charger for 83 hours.

Update. The same thing I love with this battery, I also hate. The instructions said to charge to 100%, let it die, and repeat for about the first 5 charges. I haven't been able to do this, and I -have- to charge it tonight. I don't even know what percent it's at, which is driving me crazy... I'm literally trying to get the battery to die... This is a mere annoyance, for now, though... I'm sure I'll get used to it... I'll just charge it every 3 days, or something.

My battery JUST died! Lol....Atleast 60 hours of use, with atleast 10 hours of playing music...
wow 60 hrs is hectic.. i might get me one aswel
60 freakin hours? Crazy stuff! Tempted to also get one.
My first charge was over 86 hours.
I see that all the Mugen Extended battery posts are from August so I have to wonder if the battery issue has been fixed. When I got my battery it would give me 3-4-5 days .. then as soon as I upgraded from 1.6 to 2.1 or 2.2 I would get a low battery warning long before my battery was used up. I had to remove the battery and turn it back on for the warning message to go away. Besides that being a pain in the butt, you have to be VERY VERY careful to not break the plastic clips .. I could get by with one broken off but sometimes the phone would shut off .. so ... Are you all not getting the low battery warning ?? I contacted Mugen often and they couldn't figure out the problem. they said the problem was with Dell and Dell wouldn't tell them how to fix it.
Well, on my last charge, I got the low battery warning after 3 days...You have to delete the battery stats file then charge it to 100% and let it die. It calibrates it a bit better, atleast.
I have read other posts that state that these extended batteries use a pack that actually contains two batteries and that power cycling the phone when it gets to or near zero causes the battery meter to properly read it after it has switched to the second battery.

I bought mine when they first arrived at Mugen. I don't remember how long ago that was but I was posting daily my battery status. Probably a year ago. I think I got 4 days. Not heavy usage. I was on T-Mobile Edge. That was before I upgraded from 1.3 to 2.1 or whatever it was. IMMEDIATELY the Streak could no longer read the battery. It isn't really 2 batteries hooked together .. or maybe it is .. there is the part of the battery that fits in where the original battery goes and then the rest of the battery is the size of the cover .. but thin .. Any way .. It would tell me that I needed to re-charge, but all I had to do was remove the battery and replace it and get more life from the battery. Still .. it never felt as long having to remove and replace. If I remember correctly - resetting the Streak didn't do the job, the battery needed to come out. It was a pain because the cover isn't metal and the little clips are plastic .. BE VERY CAREFUL removing the cover. Mugen will replace the cover but it sucks having to treat it so gently.
Whatever ... in the end. NO PROBLEMS with the original 1.3 version .. THAT could read the life of the battery correctly. I thought by now one of the XDA people would have come up with a fix. I think I won't buy another until there is a fix. If you have to constantly take it out and put it back, may as well have 2 of the regular batteries. Then you don't have to worry about that CHEAP plastic back cover.
I found this post of mine from BEFORE I UPGRADED to 2.2 ..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831282
at 10th November 2010
"Today has been 72 hours since I unplugged it from the charger and I am at 58% .. I am not going to put it on the charger until it won't start !!"
I don't know where I posted after that ... but I know I got at least another day.
Well, they tell you on the site that it won't read the battery correctly.
Mugen didn't know that it wouldn't read the battery until people started complaining after the 2.2 upgrade. I know this because I was one of the first to buy the battery and the first to get upset after I upgraded.
Well...If you've ever used Battery Dr., they calculate how long you can use music, video, 3g, wifi, etc. And since this is approximately 3x as powerful as the regular battery (Mugen says 3.14x) I just extended the times to calculate, by 3x.
Cool to see people having success with this.....I think I'm going to spring for the 1800 mAh battery from Mugen and see how it works. Not really into having a flimsy extended case for my phone. Even though multiple day charges would be nice, I'm just looking to make it through 10-12 hours.

You do realize its capacity is anywhere from 2500 mAh to 3100 mAh, not really 4000 mAh? It's physically impossible to fit bigger higher capacity cells into single OEM battery size. Typically these ebay batteries, like Golden 4200 mAh, are closer to 2500 mAh (I have tested a few), but from your screenshots and the fact it costs over $10 - I think its safe to assume it will be closer to OEM 3100 mAh. Just gotta watch out for any bulging which happens with these over time especially when you charge them at full 2A speed, and you probably going to notice performance to go down in about 3-4 months.
Sorry bro, didn't mean to rain on your parade. It's just a fact with these ebay batteries.

It is surely better than my stock battery. So it can't be less than 3100mah. Has to be higher.

Ooh, you just offended a bunch of people on this forum who got Golden batteries hoping they will get 4200 mAh for $6
Unless you have some latest ground breaking info about new development in battery cell density, Samsung used the highest density battery in their OEM footprint. It's a fact. The only way to maximize it was by doubling the size, thus all the reputable companies had double thickness/capacity with 6200 mAh batteries and Zerolemon had it at triple with 9300 mAh. The only company that was able to squeezed a bit more was Mugen who does their own development and was able to squeeze in 6400 mAh in double capacity.
To verify capacity of your battery, looking at performance with screen on time, etc is not accurate. Especially since you are comparing it to an original battery with aged performance. You need to get an external hardware battery tester where you charge the battery to a full capacity and let it discharge down to 2.4V cutoff voltage while monitoring the actual current drain over time to get the exact capacity in mAh.
Btw, just for sh!ts'n'giggles, take the label off your battery to see what is stamped in there as actual capacity
I dont need to get anything. ..
My real world usage proves this last longer than my stock battery. I bought this battery to use as a backup but now my stock battery is the backup.
Are you saying mu screenshots are fake?
Also if you're point was valid, aa batteries come in one size right?
Why are there 800mah, 1200mah and 1600mah aa batteries?

Chill bro, I'm not doubting your screenshots or your experience. As I said, it sounds like you probably got 3100 mAh battery. That's all. As someone who reviews a lot of accessories and gadgets on XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192333) and helps other members on this forum, I just want to be sure other people are not mislead by thinking they can get 4000 mAh battery because Note 2 battery with such capacity doesn't exist. Period. Neither does anything over 3200 mAh since I remember testing my Anker 3100 mAh to be slightly higher then stock capacity. The screenshots are real, I'm not doubting it, but that is call a "relative test" to another reference of someone else using stock capacity battery under different conditions with different setting and running different apps. We had people reporting poor performance with ZL 9300 mAh while the fact is they were comparing it to stock battery performance from 3-4 months ago when they had different setup with different apps, etc.
Just calm down, enjoy your battery, and spend a little bit of time reading this website with a lot of Note 2 battery reviews and explanation how they really being tested: http://www.batteryreview.info/
Ok just making sure you aren't hating lol.
I didnt say I believe it to be 4000mah. I just believe it is higher than 3100mah because it lasts longer.

It's probly a case of new 3100MAH compared to your used original 3100MAH
Only new battery tech could squeeze juice more into the same physical battery.
New battery tech wouldn't be sold for $14. :good:
Anyway at $14 that's not bad. Let us know how it performs over time. Cheaper than buying an original Samsung 3100mah
Just got this
Just got this battery and managed to last over 7hrs of onscreen time doing mostly messaging, web browsing, watching videos off the microsd card and youtube.
Auto-brightness was set to about 30% (was more than sufficient for an overcast day and 8 hours in the office).
Had location services turned on, gmail and Exchange syncing. Also had music playing (Poweramp) for most of the work day.
Hope this helps any others looking to give this a try.
No idea if I will get this sort of screen time on the stock battery as I've only had a half day use of it (bought the phone used off ebay and got the extended battery at the same time).
I get these same stats on my stock battery. Running ADHD 18 with latest Perseus kernel

Im not impressed
As i can see your screen on time is just 4+ hours, i can say im getting somewhat 6-7 hours screen on time with my 7 months old stock sammy battery
As far as I'm aware the Mugen battery is the best available at 3200mah. The Anker one being a better value for money choic3 at slightly higher than stock.
I have no way of actually testing this though, but there's no way the OP's battery is anywhere near 4000mah.
On a similar note, does anyone know of any tools to accurately measure these battery capacities?
–edit sorry wrong link that was for testing cords not batteries

I see the reviews here are pretty old now.... so can anyone of you update the status of your battery performance now?
im sorry but i think zerolemon is better with 9300 if u dont mind the bulk
Hi all. My SG5 has been happily running Naked ROM for months. Battery life wasn't spectacular but struck me as normal for the amount of use. Suddenly my battery won't hold a charge. Now I'm not suggesting it has anything to do with rom! I'm just asking for advice on how to troubleshoot. Can installing custom ROMs affect battery life or is this a fluke or defective battery? I will probably have to go the warranty route so I'm freaking out about it.

Take the battery out and spin it on a hard table like a top. If the battery spins like a top, then its bad. If it doesn't, than its a good battery. Might want to consider ordering a new battery though.

Another thing to do is take the battery out and put it in an external charger. I have fixed a lot of battery problems that way.
Fortunately, when I tried to spin my battery on the table, it didn't spin - it just flew across the room and bounced off the wall. Seems to be fine now.
I did find out that mm-qcamera-daemon had gone crazy on my phone and uninstalling skype solved the problem. Good thing because I haven't the vaguest idea how to fix my phone where I can take it into the store for service lol! Maybe if i spin the whole phone hard enough it would revert to pre-hacked state?
