Seriously, that would have taken like 3 seconds to find out on google. Every single article written about the thing states that it isn't!

Nope it isn't, that the big downside off the HTC One X and HTC One S, you don't just buy anymore a few cheap spare batteries from ebay.
No now you will need external batteries which cost more normally and I guess the cheap ones are worst then cheap spare batteries.
This should only be a problem if you play a lot of games or watch movies or shows with your device and you can't carry an extra battery. The only time I have removed my battery with my DHD is when I have to force restart it and I have used it for 1.5 years.

Hahaha! I also had to do it when it fell into water
Still working though!
I had to remove it a few times because my virtuous Rom would occasionally crash and the reboot would loop...

I read somewhere that the HD7 1930mAh battery can be used with the HTC Wildfire S.
So if this is true, this is very good news to WS owners!!!!
I myself am thinking of getting this phone as a backup eventhough I have a HTC Desire HD.
Is the battery the same width, so is it identical to the Wildfire S battery?

Don't know because I don't have the wilfire phone. Just check the volatge if its the same, and the battery fits the phone then it will work.
local phone shop reckons the HD7 battery is as big as the screen on our Wildfire S' and thinks it will not fit.....
I'm always dubious of high capacity batteries since I saw the test results on batteryboss.org.

That's the battery I was talking about though.
mphi is right about the capacity of the battery, HTC HD7 is officially sell with a 1230mAh. Check this out:
http://www.htc.com/www/product/hd7/specification.html
If it works, it'd be great!
It was said already that both phones and their batteries are a completely different size and formfactor:

When I read about this, I went on ebay and bought a cheap HD7 battery just to test... I can confirm that the battery I received fits the wildfire s without a problem... It says on the battery HD7/HD3 and its 1500mha.. it is not an Original though.
The battery ran down quicker than the original, but after a few days it started to hold its charge a lot more - a week on and im loving.. I took my phone off charge at 08:00this morning, 10 - 15 texts, lots of browsing and facebook and im currently sitting @ 98% 14:15

Pretty sure this was it, it was done through my GF account so will check when home.. but im sure this is it.. same battery in pic as mine.
TBH honest, even when I was just searching for a wildfire battery they showed as compat as HD/HD3/Wildfire S

I would take care with batteries that state this size - its either a bigger battery that comes with a new back for the HD7 so wont fit your Wildfire or it wont actually hold 3500mah.. it would also run very hot. I hope im wrong on all accounts.. fingers crossed.
My guess would be that 1500mah would be the limit for a battery our size - anything above this must be reporting incorrect.
Cheers
Bracken
well I'll report back once I get the battery
I have also ordered a fresh battery cover so I can modify if needed....
Looking at the pictures though, it looks like it's the same size as the normal one..... we'll find out soon.....
I'm looking for a new battery for my HTC Desire but not sure which one to get.
Could someone please post some suggestions?
Got £5 in my paypal so that's my limit really don't really want an expensive battery.

£5?!
that's barely enough to cover the shipping costs ^^ add 5 to 10 more and then we can talk.
Yeah, used oem battery will probably perform better than new £5 pos.

You have a link there to nexus one thread and the process is the same, even eaiser with AOSP rom cause every kernel is calibration friendly. Only difference is that you have to use stock battery calibrator app (for N1) not the one from the thread. I tried to do itbseveral times with sense rom and didn't manage to do it. At the end I flashed cm7 and did it. Just read the thread carefully and follow the steps exactly as posted, it's very important.

Dear Buddy, Regard on your question, i think the most simple way is you find a repaire shop around your house, the repaire shop owner must be know the battery you need. so you don't need ask others else.:silly:

i know what battery i need just not sure which one to get, some dont last very long need someone who has bought one of ebay or amazon before
if you really want a new battery, i'd say get an htc original one..My experiences with cheap replacement batteries weren't all that great..
i recently bought a new battery made by hama. stumbled across it when i was looking for a new headset. it performs really good so far even though it only has a capacity of 1270 mAh (still lasts for a good 5 hours of non-stop usage). it was rather cheap, cost me 13,99€ if i remember correctly.
Hi, im newin this forum but usw it since years. Root several diveces with the help from xda! So i hope you can hell me onec again. Search for a 2100 mah battery for my hox but cant find it. Can one help me with a link? Prefere Europe links. THX
Root my HTC dhd, Galaxy tab 2 and my hox
There's no internal 2100mAh battery for the HOX. You can buy only the original 1800mAh one, or you may try one of the battery cases. You can find many on ebay...

But if htc one x+ will be released it have to be possible to buy a 2100mAh Battery
The Bodysize is exactly the same, so we should get the one x+ battery on our one x
Body Size isn't exactly the same. Gsmarena has listed it as the same don't know why. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1939639
Believe me, even I want to be able to add the bigger battery but I'm not sure if we can.

the process is simple until you have to void your warranty by unscrewing the screws(and a screw with "VOID" sticker on it)

just take phone to your htc service in your town and they will replace it and you will have your waranty. Here in my country price is 25 euro,just to wait for one x+ to come

Hi all,
I have the T-Mobile version of the HTC one X (UK Version if that makes any difference)
I recently purchased a "Power Bank" battery case charger 3200mAh from Ebay - The listing stated the battery case would not work with AT&T HTC One X but did not mention the T-Mobile one X
The battery case arrived today and does not work on my phone, i have done some google searches but i cannot find the reason why it wont work. The Pogo pins are aligned correctly as far as i can see & i have made sure they are clean.
Does anyone know the reason why the T-Mobile version wont work with these case chargers?
Can I get it to work if I root my phone or do i need to return it for a refund?
Thanks.

I would e-mail the supplier mate too bad that it didn't work.. I have absolutely no idea why? Are you sure the case is "ON"? Most of the times there is a switch on the case..? Have you charged the case a whole night?
Hi,
Yeah I have given both a full charge.
The case has no power switch its just always on.
I know it doesn't work with at&t one x but it doesnt say anything about tmobile one x.
Why do they have to mess about with phone models, why can't they be uniform!
I've searched all over, the only battery case that 100% works with my version of the one x costs like £40 and I'm not paying that !
Ill just have to deal with the poor battery life. Phone doesnt last me three hours if I've watched a few vids and played a game or two.
HTC you ruined a great phone you idiots!

External battery? Anyway are you using custom ROM?
Inviato dal mio HTC One X con Tapatalk 2
I just bought an external charger 2600mAh its better than nothing but I would have preferred a case unit.
I'm using htct stock Rom at the moment, worried about rooting because I don't even know what version I have, clearly I don't have the international one because that charger would have worked if I had.
Dont wanna risk flashing the wrong Rom!

I bought two of these batteries form this vendor and though one of them was not assembled correctly and wouldn't fit he accepted a photograph of the battery not fitting the phone in order to replace it for me without having to send it back in the mail first. And at $5.25 it wasn't worth the shipping cost to mail it back. And I have found that with cheaper sources there can be some defects especially with the first order (for some reason) but the sellers are normally very reasonable when it comes to replacements.
I see that this is an older thread so you may have gotten a new battery by now but just in case you haven't and for anyone else that may be looking I posted this. And the link is for a 2450MAH battery too and I have to say that for a normal sized battery it does last quite a long time (other extended life batteries I have gotten for other models often come with a new battery cover to compensate for the added width)

Yes I have tested it myself. And am going to do a calibration too and will let you know what it reports if you want. I have charged and discharged the battery 4-5 times since I got it and the battery seems to last quite some time. I can't tell you what it's stock battery was like because I bought the phone with a broken screen and no battery. I actually got 3 wildfire s phones at the same time.

I have some results from my testing of the battery to share. I normally find the apps that calibrate batteries to be confusing as to what it interprets results to so I gauge it instead on what I have seen with other devices and while performing tasks. If you notice something not listed that eats batteries and want to know if it was on or not let me know and I can tell you.
Battery at 100%
Simcard not inserted to the phone.
It's a Bell phone and I use Telus (if anyone knows a reliable s-off method while using hboot 1.08.0099 or downgrade to hboot 1.01.0001 so I can use revolutionary to remove the simlock as I can't get gfree to power cycle it would be much appreciated)

Google location services on
Note: erm... I got distracted and can't remember what it was that I was going to add as a note. If I remember I will add it. ADHD is a *****. Anywho, moving on.
After approx 1.5hrs of playing music (using large headphones not earbuds and on max volume) the battery was at 71% when I got home. When I use my EVO 3D using same settings except with a simcard inserted and using an extended life battery (one of the thicker ones that needs a separate battery cover) my battery is around 65% or so and 40% using a stock battery (albeit the stock battery is original and approx 2yrs old now).
I can test and report further if you want me to and while using a setup that you would like me to use just post the settings and any links to apps and or specific ROM you want me to use. And if you want you can pm me and again if don't hear back from me within 5days or so. I may have missed the email or been lazy and need a nudge.
If this helped let me know and click thanks and if not let me know what I can do to improve on it. Thanks :laugh:
I'm using a 2200mAh from this site for over a year now.
