yes most def. need a case. Maybe it could be good for certain times when need alot of juice and maybe modify a gel case to fit. I wonder if it would work in a stand alone charger deal. I bet it would.

I have had this battery for about a week now. http://www.batterybay.net/Battery-for-Motorola-XT720-p/motorola -cs-mxt720xl.htm I personaly dont get much more time over the stock battery. I get at best an hour more than stock. Battery feels lighter & cheaper than stock. Just my opinion hope this helps.
is that it? anyone else use it yet?
shame i was getting quite excited about it
^thats good to know, i guess. i had been considering it,but then ive had bad experiences with this spare battery that was given to me by the buyer. It's a cheap "Speed" china brand, and it really really sucks. like 3 hours and its done.
If i would ever get another battery i would always make sure its motorola, just from my experience with that horrible battery.

Ahh what a waste and a ripoff then. I got an OEM backup and stand alone charger from amazon for under $10 and it's been great. Of course both are OEM. Then I had to get a replacement phone, so now I have 3 total batteries. Keep one on the charger and one with me so that's a reason why I just didn't order it, good thing. But you can find the OEM batteries for about $5.
Thanks for the heads up it's nice to know.

Hey, you mind posting a picture of how the phone looks with the extended battery cover on it?
Got a similar one off ebay, said "Cameron Sino" on the battery, some holographic backing and serious looking packaging. With decent english! XD
No dropped calls like another cheap-o battery I got, that battery also let the phone turn on 5 or 10 times after turning off. And sometimes it would hang doing nothing, had a dead phone in my pocket more than once.
Battery is twice as heavy as the original, back end is plastic.
Not sure about the two copper pads, they are now no longer connected. Reception is unchanged though, not sure what the pads are for.
Lasted me 36 hours to dead this time, second charge.
I've played grave defense two hours, surfed and left sync and wifi/bt etc all on to spend power as fast as possible.
I barely got 16 hours on the now 1 year old original battery, with sync off and no games. So this is a massive improvement.
Shows 5% after four hours though, I've just deleted the battery calibration info, hoping it'll solve itself eventually.
Voltage is 4.0 volts when phone says 5% so phone doesn't report it correctly.
Phone turns off normally and then phone won't start, just like original battery.

There may be copies out, I noticed the URLs you gave have pics of batteries that says "XELL" and the other is unbranded... Damn jungle.
Wow, 2300 mAh. We can enjoy for longer with XT720
Well.. Problem persists with % being incorrect. I get 5% after 6-7 hours, and it will last happily for 48 hours with gaming etc.
Problem is phone just suddenly dies without warning, so I've returned to stock. :S
Battery Monitor Widget shows 2478mah measured, and weirdly, shows 1325mAh on stock battery.. Which would indicate it ISN'T worn..?
the ram is not enough. who can make swap?

So I searched around and all I could find was one $80+ battery that came with a new back cover.
Anyone have better luck?

WP7 app testing... sorry
I believe the Samsung Captivate's battery (or any of the other Galaxy S batteries) will work with the Focus. There was a thread about it a few months ago but I couldn't find it and I have not tried it myself.
They do work, I use a spare battery I have from when I had a galaxy s on sprint.

I don't want a spare. I want one with double the capacity :-D
http://www.jpitta.com - Sent from my SGH-i917 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Mugen do a 1600mAh battery that uses the OEM battery cover and a 3200mAh battery (more than double the capacity) that comes with a replacement rear cover. Turns your beautiful slimline Focus into a brick tho'.
Also no way I'd be paying $100 for a spare battery, I'd rather buy a couple of stock spares to swap in for far less money and keep the beautiful profile of the Focus.
Just my 2c.
I didn't buy the focus because its thin. I bought it for the screen + expandable storage that doesnt work yet.
It'd still be nice to keep it as thin as possible though, right?
Either way, doesn't look like there are many options out there... The Focus seems like a fairly popular device all things considered, but HTC is simply dominating the WP7 market. Although there are a few Focus specific accessories out there, it looks like the phone may be doomed to seeing a $100 battery from Mugen Power alone :/
Wish there a few more options available. The stock battery is OK, but if you use your phone often, it isn't good enough. I have two extra batteries to help for that issue, but without an easy way to charge these extras, it gets annoying to keep them all full.

Would be interested to see how this holds up, seems like a pretty cheap battery if you ask me. I'm tired of sleeping over at my girlfriends and having my phone die because I don't have a charger for it and I've used it all day.

I wouldn't expect miracles. Maybe a maximum of 15-20% extra time, but I wouldn't stretch that far
.
On the website the description is more accurate, as on other webites you get "double the standby time and talk time" which is of course, not true.
Quote from Momax website:
* Use the highest-capacity batteries, long standby time, high stability, performance, consistent with the original.
* Advanced Lithium-ion technology, high performance output.
* Battery charging times of up to 500 times or more, environmental protection, and durable.
* Use imported IC components, precision protection circuit board prevents battery overcharge and the positive and negative transient short-circuit, safe, secure.
* Equipped with short-circuit. Overcurrent device in line with international safety standards.
* Production in line with ISO 9002 and ISO 14001 specifications.
Someone here at XDA bought one and I don't see any follow-up which makes me think there's nothing special to expect...
I wouldn't expect miracles either, however I use my phone a fair amount and I usually am forced to sleep with my phone off (which I hate doing). Enough to last through the night would be wonderful.
Hey all,
Here are some pics of the new 2400mAh battery I got off eBay for $33 USD. Pretty sweet so far. Ran down to 1% battery after about 24 hrs, then ran another 18 hrs. I'm currently trying the "Battery Left" app to properly guage its life, as the built in monitor of the Streak allways thinks its the regular battery...
Its not the biggest extended battery for the Streak, but now I have it, and the original battery too, so I should be prepaired for any eventuallity.
Also the stand is pretty darn cool too. The whole thing makes is about twice as thick, tho. Not a problem for me, as I wear scrub pants to work with real loose pockets. Have not tried it with jeans yet...
My next move is to alter my Otterbox case to fit...

thanks for the photos, was thinking about getting this, but it looks to be about the same size as the mugen 4800 battery, and thats twice as powerful again. Think I'd sooner have that with it being the same size. I do like the stand though very nice idea.
I think the Mugen is twice the capacity , but about 4x the price. This was only $33. You could get several... plus, I figure I still have the stock battery so when this one dies I can pop that one in and get another good day of use...

yeah i'm just not one for carrying other batteries around, I just want one thats in all the time, to behonest I'm happy with the battery you get with, its lasts well over a day. yeah i know its a lot more expensive but probably get a week out of it which is amazing!!
A week would be awesome, but I get nervous if I don't charge it every night anyway...
Sent from my Streak using XDA app on StreakDroid 1.9
hey slaydog, please keep us informed about how many hours does the battery last. Maybe you can run some test to see if it holds its charge (like playing musics/video or browsing the net)?
Is the stand solid or fragile? Do you feel the streak more heavy with the battery on and most importantly, does the battery get warm a lot?
Just an update. New battery is working great! I still charge it every night, but I never worry about how much I use it during the day. I stream Sirius, play Podcasts, surf the web, YouTube etc... the stock battery meter sometimes shows the phone dead around noon, while my new battery meter when I plug it in at night still shows 60-75%
Does not get hot or make the streak feel heavier. It is bigger, though. I cut my Otterbox case to fit the new back and use the stand, so it looks like a tank! But the new cover is only a little thicker than the back of the case. Stand looks good and works good too. Very sturdy.
Using an app called Battery Monitor free, that shows actual batter %, the Battery Left app did not.
Anyway, certainly no regrets for $33!

Have you tried wiping the battery stats using StreakMod Recovery. It is on the advanced menu - pic here.
Also Battery Left has to be 'trained' by fully charging and then fully discharging the battery. It does show the % left and the time left. More info here. Developer FAQ

cheers,
malty
how does it even fit? mine came without any hooks of any kind it cannot attach at all. are the uk and us streaks different?
Mine arrived this morning from superetrader (via ebay)
didn't realise it was a cameron sinai battery, had some real issues with those in the past, if I'd known I wouldn't have ordered it...
But I'll test it for a few days and see how I get on.
Does this battery or the mugen 4800 still fit in the av dock?
the powermonitor in the EMlist reports this as 1446 capacity which is wrong,
I charged it with the streak off then wiped battery stats
its currently on 57% after 25 hours..
cover is pretty easy to dislodge (As its easy to grab), easily fixed in the 1.xx streakdroid roms as they disable the forced shutdown if that happens.
back does make a nice shape to hold.
so far not bad

First thing I tried was resetting battery stats. Don't know what that does, but didn't seem to make a difference. I properly did the training for Battery Left, I even adjusted the battery capacity setting, but the numbers given still only varied slightly from Android's.
Still loving it, BTW...

Anyone got an update?
If you bought this battery I have some follow up questions.
1) Are you still using it?
2) Are you using it as a spare or your everyday battery?
4) How accurate is the battery meter on the phone when using this?
3) What are the pluses?
4) What are the minuses?
5) Is the cover part of the battery or a separate piece?
6) Any problems with the cover coming loose?
7) have you modified a case/cover for your Streak to use with this? If so, which one?
Thanks for the feedback.
I use mine maybe once a week,
used it quite a lot while in netherlands, battery life is definitely better than stock one.
cover hasnt come undone by itself, and now I hold it properly its ok
battery levels appears to be down to the method of calculation that wont account for extended batteries, so 100% is 1500 mah or so no matter what, I've found the battery drops to 1% then keeps going for quite a while
I was, at first, dubious to spend $80 on a battery that physically fattens my phone by like 40%, but after my first full charge/discharge using Battery Monitor to track my progress, I am fully convinced of the value...

This was with moderate use; some gaming, some internet usage, a bunch of various phone calls, some navigation in my car, etc. Also a fair amount of sleep time, though. At no point did I turn the phone off however; it was powered on the entire time. Let's see... 2 Days (48hrs) plus 16.5hrs = about 65hrs total. plus the remaining 5% or so, equals, maybe 66 or 67 hours? On one single charge? Awesome.
I know your mileage may vary, depending on your phone usage habits, but I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed with the 3600mAh Mugen battery and definitely recommend it. I even actually like the way it makes my phone feel a little beefier in my hand, instead of like a scrawny little wafer; it makes it easier to grasp and type on. I also keep the fully-charged MOTO 1880mAh battery in my glove box for a backup as well, since it is worth a good 15-24 hours or so.
Any other good/bad experiences with batteries?
[EDIT] - Aw crap, I thought I was in the Droid 3 Accessories sub-forum, my bad... Can a mod maybe move this over there..? Thanks... 0.0
Even if it was 10000mah i'd still not use it because it makes already chunky phone twice as thick
Hell i was getting 3days on Liberty with the Motorola Extended Battery. Given I didn't use my phone all that much its still impressive.
I'd try Liberty or another custom GB rom, I'm sure you'll get even better.
Take a pic of the phone profile. Wanna see how fat your D3 is.
Sent from my XT860 using xda app-developers app
Does it get hotter than normal when you use it with games?
I live in Hawaii, so it pretty much always got hot during games; I haven't noticed it getting any hotter though.
It definitely fattens up the phone a bit, so if you're obsessed with a super-slim phone you might wanna stick with the previously-mentioned energy-efficient ROM and the slim 1880 MOTO battery (Or just buy a keyboardless ultra-slim phone). I like the thickness and super battery life though. Here's a few shots of it next to my wife's XPERIA Play, which, if you notice, is even fatter than my D3, and it only has a 2600mAh extended battery while mine has the 3600mAh...

you can get Mugen Droid 3 battery from official Mugen webshop
http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/motorola/verizon-motorola-driod-3.html
they have 3600mAh (extra backdoor) and 1700mAh (original cover)
Plus FYI: Mugen gives 7% facebook discount.
And Mugen offers warranty and customer support if the item is purchased from their official website, which is always a good thing to rely on.
OK well, here's one more... Exactly 96 hours (4 days) since last charge with 1% battery left, although I rarely used the phone during this period because I was working a lot; it spent a lot of down-time sitting in a cubby-hole outside of the place I work because they have cell phone restrictions. I did use it for GPS a few times though, and played Trolls n Towers and Trial Xtreme 2 Winter for awhile, as well as your average phone calls and texting activity. It spent a lot of time sleeping, but still... four entire days for a fairly large touch-screen smart-phone on one charge. Not too shabby. In fact I think it's the best I've ever had on any phone/battery combo so far, personally.
Hi.
I want to buy a new extended battery for my droid 3 because without WIFI I can't make the day on one charge.
Also, it skips from 10% to 4% in 1 second. (on all roms)
I'd prefer not to have a much thicker battery(case) but a little bit won't hurt. (so not the 3500 mah )
Anyway, I searched ebay and found many many batteries in the $3-6 range incl. shipment that claim to have 1800-2000mah:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Red-1950mAh...469871?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3cbc6fa02f
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-1800mah...579346?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4ab4b8a3d2
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Replace...962837?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4ab65a7a95
Surely these can't be 'real'? They must be like 1000mAh, if any?
Does anyone have experience with these cheap batteries? If so, which one?
I know some have anker 1800 but they don't ship outside the US.
Thanks

I would NEVER EVER use cheap, third-party batteries! I bought my spare battery from Expansys Germany, it's of course more expensive, BUT it's original!
Here you go: http://www.expansys.de/motorola-defy-battery-207650/ (Yes it's the Defy Battery )
My battery lasts for about 16 hours a day with heavy use of FM-Radio, WiFi, Emulators, Browsing etc. I always keep my spare battery in my pocket

I tried a cheap ebay battery that cost 4$ or so and it didnt fit.
Looks like you got a good one.
I've always purchased my goodies from eBay because I never liked going to shop for them.. x3
Just shop around, look at the images, and read the descriptions. I've never had problems, though the batteries I purchased recently were for my old D2G. I received two of them from China with what looked like a custom-built battery charger and.. Well. A year later everything was still discharging and charging properly, no qualms! :]
If it looks shady, skip it and go to the next listing, basically.
Been using it for couple of days now. Wasn't able to make a battery usage screenshot because every day I either charged it or rebooted my phone causing the recording to mess up.
Anyway it's definitely an improvement over my stock battery. Had a heavy-usage (3G only) day at work yesterday (quiet day ) and before I had to charge my droid 3 coming home. Now, it had 40% left :good::laugh:
I'll try to make a screenshot soon.
You said you got it on Amazon? Requesting link, plz~ :3

How about this one, looks like it should fit the stock cover:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-2300m...018?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item19cf728fc2
2300MAh
unfortunately, I had to return my recently bought milestone 3...
so i've got 2 extra batteries for noting (bought at the same time)
If soemone in Europe needs, are for sell
The batteries are very good and are in perfect conditions (99% new), I didn't use the original battery BF5X because the duration was too short in comparison. Those batteries fit with the original cover back
Droid 3 battery
Stop looking further, Get the OEM size ANKER 1800MAH battery

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement battery for my phone? All of the ones I find are sketchy on Amazon, and the official Lg one is hella overpriced
for example, would something like this be reliable at all?

i've never trusted those gold batteries, i wanted to wait for one that seems decent, with a max of 1800mAh based on size i would expect thats the highest you could get into a battery that size.
currently testing this new battery, on its first drain at the mo, will be back with reports soon

Cool, as new batteries go i expect you got to charge them a couple of times to get the correct usage average. first drain still surviving, @30% now but that was with a few benchmarks after testing a few things for Stonebear last night. will probably start charging again at about 12% later today.

Reason why i dont get one of those batteries is because i dont want to carry around a Nokia P4000, start to have hip problems carrying something that big around. ( rather just carry one of these so i can charge my phone and psp on the go) that way i can still have my sleek O2x without the bulky back cover.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/10000mAh-Se...ustomized/dp/B0063AAIRG/ref=pd_bxgy_ce_text_z
im using 1900mah batery.. it quite stand up until 1 day half.. :good:
Final drain test on new battery,
full charge gives me 4180mV
thats at a average of 1746mA +/- 24mA
will look into performance and battery life now that i've charged it a third time. and report back
I bought a "2400 mAh" battery from MyTrendyPhone (large Nordic/European online store for phone accessories).
It turned out to be 2800 mAh. Probably mislabeled by the store rather than the manufacturer. It's actually this one:
http://shop.onni-tec.de/Handy-Akkus...imus-Speed-Li-Ion-fat-Rueckdeckel::10090.html
Does anyone have any experience with this particular battery? Will do some non-scientific, subjective testing of course. Bought it on a whim because I got tired of my O2X dying halfway through the day (I'm quite a heavy user, it's literally down to 40-50% by lunch time). If it isn't much of an improvement, no great loss. It makes the phone more "substantial" but the difference isn't that great and the back cover seems to be quite good quality (also it offers far better protection of the camera lens than the original cover).

Usage Test
That Battpit Battery, 1800mAh.
Under medium to heavy usage.
listening to music 3-4 hours, Internet browsing, average 5-6 hours, videos 20 minutes, 5 calls about a minute each, 15 - 20 texts. bit of wifi, but most of the internet browsing was done under 3g.
i'll get a more standby focused battery life over the next couple of days.
ordered a 2400 mah battery.
should arrive in 2-5 days.
gonna make a review video.
I used a duplicate high capacity barrios like this and after fee days my phone used to drain without any use also and it used to heat up also went to lg care they told mother board is gone due to.difference in voltage maintenance as I used not the stock one they told use only stock batteries other high capacity battery will ruin your phone hardware...my phone used to die in Lees than 10 hours whether I use out or not...now it last more than 2 days those people who were telling there phone last more than a day I used to think they always lied.got my mother board changed from lg cost me around 50$ but more now phone is like brand new last more than 2 days and stand by station is like 1% in 8 hours..but stock batteries and go to lg care ask them is there any problem in your phone hardware ....trust me that's the solution
