Since my original battery defected, i had to look for an replacement and found on ebay, chinese manifacturer called Gold that makes significantly higher capacity batteries in the same size as the original ones.
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=gold+battery+s4&_sop=12
they advertise them at 3300mah (the original one is 2600, so that's about 25% more in the same dimensions)
naturally i find it hard to believe, so if anyone has tested any of those please enlighten me

I wouldn't buy any generic battery without any indication of Quality Control. Battery could easily overheat and cause equipment damage.
yeah well, the QC passed one got fat on the second month
brand doesn't mean much to me anymore, in the end most of the stuff is made on the same place
just the brand stuff is 10x the price, but never 10x the quality
anyway, i'm not asking for general advice on how to live and what to do, but specific question about this kind of battery
These "gold" batteries are worse than a gold iPhone.
Jokes aside, don't ever buy these. Ever. No quality control and super fake mah labels. My backup second-hand Galaxy S came with a 2640mah gold battery. The size is same as the original... lasts even less.
I don't remember maybe someone her will. There's a 3000mah battery for the gs4 that's the same size just no NFC. May be zerolemon unsure.

ah i see, thank you for the info then guys.
Unfortunately i have ordered one already.
But would like to buy a "legit" one as well.
Which ones you guys can recommend other than the original one of course? (it's $65+ here)
don't buy it... it's that simple
I kinda got that, now i'm just asking for advice what to buy

I got a couple of Anker batteries, charger included for £19.99, they seem pretty good to me.

I'm quite happy with this purchase, especially considering the price.
Polarcell has a 2900 mAh battery with NFC. I am considering buying one, had one in my I9000 and was very very pleased with its performance.

just get the original battery. I think samsung is packaging it with its own battery charger as well.
Anyway, I am not the type whom like to snap off the case to change a battery, i would stick to portable charger or case battery which is more convenient.

I'm wanting to get a replacement battery but I don't want to buy a dud. I've noticed a couple of companies selling genuine/orignal batteries and to be fair they do look EXACTLY like the samsunt branded battery that came with my TyTN II. However, on closer inspection, in the top left corner of the pictures the battery doesn't say Samsung. Can't really make out what the brand is.
Anyway, my question is, did anyone get a battery supplied with their TyTN II that was not Samsund branded and looked like the batteries in the following listing?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....m=170230086920&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=007
Considering it is from a power seller and the price isn't to low, i would go for it.
That's the exact battery in mine. Mine doesn't say Samsung. It says Dynapak on the top. idk that one deff. seems legit.
Cheers guys. You've been a great help
well you better get batteries from an authorized agent - they could cost you your device. the batteries you shown looks OK but you need to be definite so go to agent and ask for them, you may pay slightly more but you could also save yourself a headache
Mine is Samsung, I never heard of dynapack. I wouldent buy it .
if you look at the top left corner, you will see dynapak. its legit, never gave me problems great battery life too.
Dynapak here as well.

My original battery is a DynaPack. SOmewhere on here is a thread where people posted the models of their original batteries. There might have been 3 or more variations.
Both are oem. Either Samsung or Dynapack will be fine. My original battery was Dynapack. The replacement is Samsung. I had my battery replaced because it was less than a year old and losing capacity. The ATT warranty will replace it for free.
Dynapack here also in my Tilt. Model KAIS160, 1350mAh.
Hi
I would like to buy another battery, but I don't know what parameters I have to figures out in the search. Can someone tell me what characteristic the new battery must have? Do you think that buy a battery of more capacity [like 1600 mAh] could be better? I use a lot the wi-fi and it consume a lot of power...
I saw battery of 1600 mAh costing less than 1350 ones.... Are they sh*t?
Thanks

http://www.wirester.com/att-tilt-8925-htc-tytn-ii-kaiser-li-ion-extended-battery-with-door.html
I got the extended one. haven't used it though.
Thanks for the reply.
If it is possible I will buy a battery without extend the back-door because if the PDA become thicker I will have some problem to fit in the car holder...
But my question is related to the characteristic. In the Italian ebay I saw a lot of 1350 mAh battery that cost from 6 to 40 € and I don't understand the reason...
I don't know, also, if the battery with more than 1350 mAh are useful, because on of my friends had bought a xlarge battery for his PSP and the time of using is reduced compare to the original...
I'm confused... Can you help me? If someone have bought non original battery can tell me the characteristic and his opinion compare to the original one?
Thanks
My first Tilt had a Samsung in it. The rear speaker failed after a month, so i got an entire boxed replacement at the store and it had a Dynapack in it. Havent had a single complaint with the 2nd unit i got with the Dynapack battery. Heck, i think even the battery life is better with the Dynapack than the Samsung one I had first.
Thanks for your advice. I've found some Dynapack in ebay.it and I think I will buy this.
If I will have more info about I will tell you!
Thanks Bye

The battery of the highest mAh that remain of the same size of the original that I found is 1600 mAh...

there are only a few differences i can see with it vs mine... with that one, it has a DC##etc under the bar code, i have a S/N: ###etc.
The one i had in mine was a Samsung, model KAIS160, rating 3.7VDC, 1350 mAh, 4.2BDC
Of course, i did buy a used device, but i believe it was the OEM battery...

I finally got around to looking today, and it seems that there's an official 1500mAh battery to fit in the HD2...but I can't seem to find any reliable (other-than-chinese-ebay-seller) confirmation that it fits in the Tmo US version. I'm fairly confident that it will, but would love to know for sure.
Has anybody tried this one yet (or any other 1500mAh stock-size batteries), and if so do you get much more time out of regular use?
This is the one I'm referring to: HTC 35H00128-00M Li-Ion Standard battery

They probably got the size wrong. This site is saying it's the same battery that ships with the HD2. HTC never made a 1500mah battery for the HD2.
that would be perfect!!! a 1500 sized battery would easily grant me 2-4 extra battery life... and thats all i need tbh...
the stupid sprint evo phone... is coming with a 1500 battery.. and thats practically a replica of our hd2... so it makes no sense as to why manufacturers are unable to make a 1500 battery.. it is completely mind boggling...

I'm sure the evos battery will be bigger in dimensions, though. They can only fit so much power in lithium batteries. If it was possible to fit 1500mah into a battery the size of our HD2s, I'm sure someone would have done it. Lithium battery technology is the same it was 5 years ago... there's not much they can do about it right now.

Yeah, and if I'd bothered to just take mine out and compare the model number, I would have noticed that
It's stupid though that when you google that part number, there's a number of places listing it as 1500mAh.
I agree with the "they can only pack so much into a set amount of space" theory, but...there ended up being some higher-than-1500mAh (which is stock capacity) batteries for the TP2, that fit in the same space. However, I know that they probably put the largest capacity they could in the HD2 right from the start, it's obvious that 1230mAh part is barely adequate.
Check the link again , they just change to 1230mah .

indeed.
If people want to buy a cheaper battery but one that wont f**k up your phone go to www.7dayshop.com ive been buying from this company for years and have nothing but praise for them and have never had any bad experiences, they might be cheap but everything they sell is guaranteed, im sure others on here from UK and Ireland and beyond will vouch for this company.
I have this battery and I think its capacity is about the same to the stock. ymmv
Isn't there a way to effectively measure it's capacity, or any other battery for that matter?
I have a Thunder AC6, it will charge virtually any battery and give it`s true capacity, this is one of the cheapest multi-chargers you can get, the only problem is connecting the battery to the charger, you will have to make a jig or something.
You can see it being used on youtube.

Whoaaa. This is a beast. Problem is, I suck at jiggling with stuff like that. But it sure seems to be the right tool for the job.

I have purchased 3 of them for my sensation and they are by far better then the stock batteries. I get on average about 15-17 hours of moderate to heavy usuage. I'm actually going to be getting the Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic 4g Touch on the 16th and hope that they make batteries for that phone to.

I found a "2430mAh" gold battery on amazon.co.uk (also sold on ebay).
I bought one and just wanted to share that it is quite good.
If you're looking for a replacement battery, I'd suggest you buy this one. It's near 1500mAh in reality. Behaves just as when the phone (and battery) was new. I also bought a few much cheapers ones ~5-8$, but these are just a total rip-off. They're more like 500mAh.

I bought 1 battery on DX. This one was ok, but really quite bad capacity.
The other one, bought on ebay, battery + charger. Battery leaked after 3 months! Capacity was ok though.
This gold battery, is even better than I thought, now I check out my phone. I can't really compare as my original battery currently really sucks and I think it's almost dead.

Can you see the temperature of the gold battery?
currently aftter beeing in my pocket for an hour in a warm room, its 31 degrees.
after using device for 10mins it's 37 degrees.
Its similar to the official battery.
Yes it is. But it's much cheaper I think. I contacted the shop, they contacted the official repair center and got a quote of 60€ for the battery. This one cost me only 15€ including shipping.
After a second day of testing, I'm very happy. After a full day of use (~18 hours), I still had 59% of battery. That including always on Sync and 3G data, using the phone, ...
Too bad I don't have an original new battery to test it. But my guess it's a ~1500-1700mAh.

Than i bought not promised one, it was far better than this 2 batteries.
I can recommend a brand, NFE² or Polarcell
here is a link. I have Never used it, but it seems a good one. (sorry, for being new user, i can't share link in a post)
Polarcell Lithium Polymer Battery 2700mAh for Sony Xperia Z3 Compact ==>> Search for it akkushop-online/de and cellephone/de
In my opinion you should go for something more expensive or better-known custom battery. Since the construction is nearly 5 years old, the brand new original batteries will be also at least around 3-4 yrs old, thus, they won't have the original capacity, etc. You'll only have problems with battery life. And also there's a post around here on xda, where somebody put an original Samsung Galaxy S9 or S8 battery into the Z3c. Hope helped a bit
