I would like to buy extended battery that is same size like an original so it wouldn't stick out...
I have read few threads about that and I know that there are few 1800mah batteries which are really just fake 1270 mah...
So...what is max capacity in original size?
Thanks
15000mah Mugen is only option for same size & real stated capacity.
reality is a different battery technology would be required to better that.

As above, there is little in the way of a regular sized battery with considerably more capacity than the stock battery. If you're looking to keep the slim look then I'd consider doing as I did and investing in either a cheap 2nd battery (either used genuine or cheap Chinese) off eBay for a couple of bucks. coupled with a battery charger which charges both the second battery and the phone, im yet to find a situation where im without power.
Sent from my HTC HD2 (Android)
my solution to lack of capacity was to use a usb charger pack running from 4 aa cells (2100mah hybrio cells) & mod pack to activate 1Amp charger mode.
cost less than $20 & is easier than swapping/booting & externally charging hd2 batteries.
I'm actually selling my barely used 1600mAh battery on eBay (link here). I used it for about 10 days before the touchscreen on my HD2 went bad. No added bulk and the battery life is about 30% better than the original battery. I bought it from a seller in Hongkong after reading a HD2 user's suggestion here. It's about 10USD if buying from China, delivery will be from 14-30 days.

And what capacity does T-Battery application show this battery at ? for sure not 1600Mah ...
Oops ... double post ...
There are two type of good batteries momax or mugen. (Even the fact that both companies have an own website says already a lot).
Muggen has higher capcity while momax uses better cells according to 6 pages of user experiences. Both will preform about the same like 20% capicity extra. I would go for the momax since it works better in android (capcity is close to orginal one) and it is a bit cheaper 21-27 usd according where you buy it.
Momax X batteries are produced in same factory as Andida.
The momax HD2 replacement battery gave me no extra usage time, if anything less.
It may give 20% extra capacity if compared to a 2 year old fatigued OEM cell but new next to new OEM wins hands down.
If you say so...
My experience is different anyway and from a lot of others to and I can't use any battery wich has higher capicity then the stock one because it wont work well in android.
Also andida battery come from:
http://www.laishenglong.com/en/
And I am almost sure that they are not made in the same factory andida battery's look more like fake clones.
But maybe you can show me some evidence.
That was what I was told by a dealer in Hong Kong when I purchased a Momax.
The reality is a battery with less Mah than stock is not going to be 20% better but they are ok & give reasonable performance & quality for the purchase price.
Andidas registered address is Hong Kong as is Momax but neither have factories in Hong Kong.
The Andida & Momax X batteries & packaging are identical from what I looked at in Hong Kong. The Momax HD2 battery is not the X series & is different in battery wrapping, labelling & packaging.
Is buying the battery on ebay smart?
Where should I buy it to know for sure I get the battery/capacity I want...
What capacity do you want & do you still want standard size ?
The only battery that I have seen that is really higher capacity & sized same as original was a Mugen, all others read standard Mah rating when tested with tbattery.exe.
The chances of getting a higher Mah standard size battery off eBay is probably zero. A work colleage purchased an Andida 1700Mah from eBay seller snow9white for a TD2 & real capacity is 1100Mah, but ok as at just under $10 inc shipping he was happy as performs as good as OEM & he already was aware of Andidas overstated capacity.
I've read something about better cells and no need for higher capacity...so I don't care about capacity really...all I need is more time between charging it...
But I don't want to buy something on ebay, if I am not sure that it will be better as the one I have now...
The only thing I want is battery in original size that doesn't sticks out or need extra battery cover...
More time = capacity. quality of cell will have some link to overall run time but the main issue is capacity.

Yeah but I am not talking about the stock momax battery I believe you if you say it preforms the same as stock..
I am talking about the 1250 mah x-level variant.
Before you have only the stock variant since like 2 months there is the x-level variant for like 21-27 dollar.
http://www.momax.net/en/Product_Show.aspx?ID=1303&T=1
Yeh I bought mine about 3 months ago & is not x-level model cell, no HD2 x-level at that time for HD2, will have a look for the x-level HD2 in Hong Kong & if sensible HK$ buy one for a test.
Ok which one is better? The Momax X-Level or Mugen Power?

Is the Mugen worth almost double the price?
Mugen should be the best in terms by capacity & quality but with the price diference between the two it makes the x-level a major player.
I will be going for an x-level as price direct here in hong kong is just too good, don't really need one but want to test it and see if they are as good as current hype.
Ok guys, I just got the X-level battery today, I'm charging it right now and post later on how well it is.
hey guyz
i bought this battery from ebay with 2600 mah
is it fake???
and if it isn't how could i calibrate it (am using android from nand)
sorry for my bad english
Well chances of it being 2600mAh are unlikely, if lucky it maybe 1700mAh.
Also kernal of your ROM need to be capable of handling over capacity batteries, for that refer to your ROM thread.

ahaaa. ic
thanx buddy for ur quick responding
i should buy 2300 original......
I have the extended battery just like this. It claims to be 2300mah and after a few cycles my battery widget says its estimated to be 2300mah (with 30% margin of error).
All extended sized batteries I've tested have shown to be over 2000+ mah and have given me more than double standby time.
If the battery is standard sized and claims over 1600mah then suspect BS.
Most of the cheaper oversized batteries tested by members on XDA came out at 1700mAh.
Peeling the sticker will lead to the truth.
Is a thread on this with a selection of oversized batteries & the true capacities.
Well I have owned 5 extended batterys in my time.
2 for HD2
2 for WildfireS
1 for Dash
All of them costed below £10.
All of them had seen my phone pass 30hrs.
My typical standby with normal batteries is around 11hrs.
My WildfireS extended bat topic.
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1296297
Going from OP supplied picture of of black/silver label style found on eBay & amazon most are tested well below claimed mAh
I have tested many myself & delt with resources in China that make them.
From 11hrs to past 30hrs is 3X over standard, that would equate to 3000mAh plus, no chance of 3000mAh cell & cover for £10.
You get what you pay for & when it's Chinese products & eBay/Amazon getting what you pay for is a gamble with poor odds.
so how could i calibrate it??????????

You have to account for night time which is about 8 hours of no activity meaning little drain.
Thats fake around 1700Mah i guess
Want a better battery but not the giant mugen power one? I noticed that the Xperia S BA 800 battery has the same specifications except it's 1900maH instead of the V's 1750maH. See here: http://www.tvc-mall.com/details/Son...eplacement-1900mAh-Model-BA800-BATY-LT26i-01/
Just got mine today and it's been working well so far, will update in case it blows up.

Nice!
If you could, please, make a small review later, about the longevity, charging time, etc, it would be great!
Sure no prob! However, it will take several days of overcharing and draining to figure out the actual capacity. On my first discharge now, at 90% with 32 minutes screen time @ 60% brightness.
edit: hit 1 hour screen time with 81% remaining. I am just texting/web surfing.
****ing thing just turned off at 30% :/
hope it can be calibrated
It won't get any better, thats for sure. Just check this post (it's in german only):
http://www.android-hilfe.de/sony-xp...ead-fuer-das-sony-xperia-v-4.html#post5645646
There you can see the same battery and some charts. Just what I read there:
Assuming the original Sony BA800 has true 1700mAh this one has only about 1400mAh (based on runtime comparison).
This battery goes from 20% => Off always and therefore is not reliable.
This battery has a faked CE logo so it must not be selled in Europe (officially)
Runtime is basically the same for me- about 3 hours screen time and then it shuts off weather it's the chinese fake or the sony original
batteries that claim to have more capacity than the original usually don't turn out to be, especially ones from ebay. Nevertheless, if they're cheap, there's no harm in having extra backup
I'm in the same situation as the thread creator. I want a bigger battery, but not to big. Suggestions?
I found a 1900 mAh on ebay, but can't post it here because I'm a new user :silly:
thats cool! I will check it out and try it soon!
i got mine too from ebay. took 1 month to deliver to India from hong kong. working good and it didnt turned off in the middle. tested successfully till it switches off. i didnt noticed the extra 200 mAh power than the 1700 mAh battery. i should say the original one is slightly better but even though i can admit i got two 1700 mAh batteries

If you did get a low cost battery from China which has similar to OEM capacity call yourself lucky.
Anybody know if the 3220 mAh battery is compatible with the xt1103? Apparently our model has the 3025 mAh battery but I want to know if I can put the bigger battery from the xt1100 in mine. My battery life has decreased significantly so that's why I'm replacing the battery

Scratch my previous comment... I didn't realize that you were referring to the US and International versions...
Lol all good
Is there a high-capacity battery available for the Note 8 SM-N950U, something more in the 4000 mAh range like the Note 9? I'm not talking about the corny things that snap on the back and then recharge your battery, I'm talking about one that is the same size as the original, or a one that piggy backs onto the phone and augments the battery capacity of the original, not a power brick you charge from.
PS: I mean a real one, not a vendor that lies about the capacity.
Thanks!

The obvious answer in this case would be: H377 NO!!!
Is Samsung can't do it, no one else can.
I highly doubt you'll be able to find anything like that, sorry to say.

I was afraid of that because the Note 8 is isn't that old. I've seen the 18650 Li-Ions go from 2100 to 3600 so I was hoping to find something for the Note 8, or at least a case with a pretty flat battery that could add to its capacity. The only thing I see are the ones that charge the phone battery from the case battery.
Thanks for your feedback.

The original Samsung Note 4 battery was 3220 mAh. The typical replacement battery these days is 3600 mAh, so an original 3300 mAh Note 8 now having one that is 3700 mAh wouldn't be too crazy.

I once put an 8000 Mah battery into a Note 3. Jumped from 3200 to 8000, back in the days of removable battery. I think, you could do it. The problem being is that it'd be difficult to find a battery of a higher mah.

...for the same physical dimensions...
We are just trying to save the OP, the time and energy to find something that Samsung already perfected (for those physical dimensions). Anything else is an explosive Note 7 (all over again).
The OP's question is basically asking: "how to fit a truck battery in our Note 8, just to get a few more mAh". Apple, Samsung, and other manufacturers, finally got the formula right in my opinion. My phone lasts 2 days if I'm not gaming on my phone constantly

To make a jump like that normally means a larger back cover with removable batteries. That would work up through the Note 4. For the Note 8 or 9, it would require a new back cover. I could make one easily enough from plastic, but I don't know how it would affect the strength integrity of the phone because I'm half guessing that a good amount of its strength comes from the back cover. The only thing they make for them is a thicker case with a piggy-back battery for charging the main battery and no fast charging.
