[toshort21]

OK LISTEN UP u dont have to buy a new battery for your phone here is a solution to the battery problem before i did this i would get nothing out of the battery by 12 oclock noon i would be down to 40% of battery left so here is what you do!!! your battery has a memory that can remeber how much of a charge it need so use ur phone untill it totally shuts offs and wont stay on. then charge yout phone to full power takes about 2 hours do this like 2 or 3 days in a row you will see a really big difference in battery life i didnt beileve this at first either but i tried it cause i was sick of bearly using my phone and it dying but now i can use my phone non stop all day and it wont die i still let my phone battery drain completey before i charge i have seen such a big change in my phone and you can also make your own profile on power mangement to turn every thing off and then you can just change the profile with push of the screen cause i know i dont want that big bolky battery on my phone

"I called TMobile about battery problems I had. They recommended I call HTC Support directly at 888-716-3594.

They ended up shipping me another battery at the cost of $29.99 plus $7.00 shipping and $2.47 for sales tax - came to a grand total of $39.46. They also sent me an RMA ticket, so I can send my old battery back to them. They should then credit the $39.46 back to me.
I noticed both the new and the old batteries are 1150mAh. The old one has a part # 35H00106 - 01M and the new one is 35H00106 - 02M.

I just got it today (took one day to get here - Houston to Dallas), so I haven't had a chance to try out the new battery yet. I'm considering keeping both. I'll let the new one charge overnight tonight and see how things work the next few days before deciding on sending the old battery back.

Anyone gone this path? I'm so not looking forward to getting the big battery and cover. "


This is in response to the quote above. Why did you have to pay for another battery? If I'm correct the phones just came out last year in October, so you should still have a year warrenty on the item. I had to get a new battery because mine was heating up too much on my phone. So the person sent me out a new battery, told me to keep my old one as a backup and I wasn't charged charged anything. Furthermore why would T-Mobile refer you to HTC if it is a product that they are promoting with THEIR name on it? I've been a Tmobile customer for over 7 years and if there is one thing I am a stickler about it is what the warrenty should cover; to me the battery is definitely one of the things.

I've been lookin on ebay to check out the different sizes of batteries. In a nutshell can someone tell me the battery life on the extended options? Which one in your opinion is really worth the money? Thanx

2200mAh

2300mAh

2400mAh

2500mAh

2600mAh

If the phone becomes that thick, probably it is hard for me to hold it!

That's what she Said! LOL

I heard that G1 can go for about 15-20 days on one charge ... it is very simple - you shut-off the phone COMPLETELY...

Ok, the point is: why are you buying the phone on which you will shut-off 90% options that it was made for?????

How about this: there is a aGPS, 3G, 370MHz, 16.7M colors, 2.6" LCD, Navi, full keyboard, MMS, recording in VGA @22fps, 3.2 AF camera, etc - that has a battery which will last AVG 5-7 DAYS... now you tell me that is insane

I called T Mobile today, also about the poor battery life, and they told me the same thing, to call HTC.

They told me the T Mo warranty is for three months, and that HTC has a one year warranty.

Frankly, if HTC will send me a new battery and refund the purchase price in full, that's fine with me. Why would I care WHO replaces the battery, as long as it gets replaced for free.
