I ended up getting the 1800 from HTC Express shipped pretty quick and fits under stock hood. They come wrapped in red and are branded HTC battery, however I'm sure they are knock-offs. Here's what I do know 1800 HTC for me, weight 1.2oz - Voltage range 4215 @ 100% 3522 @ 0% last 10% is very strong. HTC 1500 weight 1.1oz voltage range 4209 @ 100 % 3622@ 0%. I got a better last 10% with the 1800... The logic more battery more weight, possibly better cells, both batteries had to be tweaked, before any good came from them. Just my finding...

OMj 4.5 ROM
[EVO 4G Accessories] OK plasma fan:
Ive noticed if you charge via the phone, you have to pull the charger off EXACTLY when the green light comes on..I mean immediately. I was watching tv and didnt notice it change and it had the 10% drop. Every other time I pull it asap it stays at 100% for quite awhile. im at 15% now and ive been unplugged for 42 hours!! I turn off everything when im not using it..network, wifi, bluetooth, etc
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
well i really wanted to be wrong. First shot the gallilio battery lasted 23 hours, the stock htc oem batteries usually give me closer to 28. ill report back once a few complete charges and discharges have occurred.

Just got mine. Popping it in as we speak.I don't have an external charger so gotta charge from phone.

Koni's Elite is where it's at!
[EVO 4G Accessories] OK plasma fan:
watch as the percentage goes over 90ish, pull the charger directly when the light turns green. mine stays at 100% for hours, as it should
[EVO 4G Accessories] stricklerjosh:
Pulled it right when green came on. Overnight lost 28%. Normally I only lose about 3-4%. Does it need a few cycles?

Koni's Elite is where it's at!
[EVO 4G Accessories] stricklerjosh:
Are you guys using sbc kernels with this battery? I have never used one and was just curious. Thanks!

Koni's Elite is where it's at!
[EVO 4G Accessories] droidbird:
On a couple of recommendations I bought a two pack of batteries from Amazon with a quick charger. I'm a noob, so I can't post a link. They are red 1800mah batteries with good reviews for ~$20 and over the last couple of days I've been impressed with their life. I have a consistent trip I make twice a week of 3 hours and do a couple of phone calls, listen to a number of podcasts and music and the stock ends up at 25-30% and this battery ended up (first run) at 54%.

Some of this could be attributed to my mucking around with Tasker and the like, but this was a stock EViO 1.8, 1.9x radio.
[EVO 4G Accessories] crod76:
Anybody know the best kernel for Mikifroyo and Bat life?
[EVO 4G Accessories] kd0axs:
You would be better off asking that in the Mikfroyo thread. Of course, it all depends on your individual phone and your usage habits. There really is no "best" kernel because every phone reacts differently to different kernels.

well i bought 3 of them and tried the 2nd one last night just incase the first was defective. the 2nd only lasted 2 hours! just took it off the charger 10 minutes ago and its already at 85%, something is definitely wrong with it. The 3rd one hasn't arrived yet, maybe it will be the golden egg? I expected them to at least offer some improvement as my stock batteries are close to 6 months old now which means they should of degraded about 10%. If the first galilio is indeed operating as it should im guessing these batteries are more like 1300mah, which was my initial hunch. ill report back when the 3rd arrives. by the way I tested them with the wall charger and the sbc kernel.
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
Run them through a few cycles. I personally have 4 of them and all of them last a heck of a lot longer than that.
[EVO 4G Accessories] taadow1030:
Just purchased the batteries off of eBay. My Evo is stock... will post details once I receive and use.:D
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
Could anyone that has these 2000 mAh batteries from ebay measure their weight?

I saw an earlier post that had the stock 1500 mAh at 1.1oz and the 1800 mAh "HTC" battery weighted 1.2oz.

If all of these stock-sized batteries are the same size, then any real capacity increase would be from the cell density. So the heaver, the better.

If these 2000 mAh batteries are real, then they should weigh more then 1.2oz by the previous post. More than the stock battery at the very least.
[EVO 4G Accessories] stricklerjosh:
Mine took about 4 full cycles to settle in. Had horrible drain the first two times.

Koni's Elite is where it's at!
[EVO 4G Accessories] ro_bro:
It says on the bottom of the post that you can't fit these without replacing the cover. So I'm confused. Can you use these w/ the original cover, or do you need an OEM cover?

Q: Does this 2000 battery fit into the back of the phone without a different size cover?

A: sorry,we are afraid that it does not fit.​
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
They are the same size as the stock batteries and fit just fine under the normal cover. I don't know why their page says that but it is incorrect.
[EVO 4G Accessories] xlGmanlx:
do you run SBC on these?
[EVO 4G Accessories] stricklerjosh:
Im back to my stock battery. I could never get this one to last longer. I will sell mine if anyone wants it for $5.

Koni's Elite is where it's at!
[EVO 4G Accessories] jc8081:
Is there an app that will tell the real mAh or whatever so once i get them to tell if there really 2000?
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
I run SBC on the stock battery and seidio 3500 with great results. When I receive these 2000mAh from eBay, they will have SBC applied to them also.

I feel everyone got paranoid with using SBC. But that's a different thread.
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
They definitely are not 2000mah. Probably closer to 1650.
[EVO 4G Accessories] kratos313:
Just got my 2000mah battery today going to give it is run thru I heard great things about it from xda and Android central forums

posted from a Myn EVOlved device powered by Android
[EVO 4G Accessories] xlGmanlx:
soooooooooo......SBC or no SBC ?
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
I don't charge them in my phone, only in the dock charger.
[EVO 4G Accessories] xlGmanlx:
doh! and you said that too, thanks
[EVO 4G Accessories] kd0axs:
Look back a few posts. I posted a couple pics of one of these batteries side by side with the stock battery and you can see they are not any bigger.

Sent from my HTC EVO 4G with Tapatalk
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
they are for sure not 2000, i think even metal head will admit that. If i had to guess i would say they are 1300s, others are claiming they are 1600s. im sending one to batteryboss.org so we will know the answer soon.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
i get a quick 10% discharge using the dock charger, im using an sbc kernel now.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jc8081:
Wait if there only around 1650 or as low as 1400 how could they be better then the stock 1500s? Thanks
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
I was never good at math but I'm fairly confident that 1650 > 1500.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jc8081:
I know lol but that's like only 10% better how could u ever notice a difference?
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
Well, at the end of the day, I have anywhere from 10-20% more juice on average with the Galileos than I do with the stock batteries. It's not much, but it's definitely noticeable. What really makes these batteries great is how well they perform for the price. There are a TON of dirt cheap batteries on ebay and most of them suck (I should know, I have like 16 batteries on last count), but the galilios are great.
[EVO 4G Accessories] xlGmanlx:
ten percent per charge could add up over time and depending on use could mean a lot more. if you had two of these and swapped them out you could have at least 20% more battery life every day and it grows day after day etc with amount of time saved accrued
[EVO 4G Accessories] jc8081:
Have u or anyone tried the ones that u have to replace the back if so are they legit almost double ur battery? And how much thicker will it make my phone?
[EVO 4G Accessories] SirSigma:
I ordered a Galilio battery from China that I believe was 2000 mAh, and the main reason I picked it was because I heard a lot of good things about it and that it didn't require you to change the cover to use.

Unfortunately, I have to wait until the end of the month to receive it because it's from China.
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
Yep that's the one we've been discussing in this thread.
[EVO 4G Accessories] SirSigma:
Yeah, this thread and another one persuaded me to order one.

Once it arrives, I just need a kernel to try out and see how much I can squeeze out of it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] kratos313:
yeah the kernel plays a big part i'm trying out net's kernels now Ziggy's don't play well with my phone.

And i'm doing my Charge, Discharge, Charge routine right now on my 2000mah battery
[EVO 4G Accessories] gedster314:
Isn't the stock battery 1200 mah or am I confusing that with my Incredible? I know they are interchangable. Doesn't the Touch Pro have a 1500 mah battery that fits in the EVO and the like. What batteries work in what phones gets really confusing some times.

Maybe the EU shouldn't stop at charging cables but also mandate all phones take the same batteries too.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
my guess is its been a long time since metalhead has used a stock battery. the improvements he's seeing are probably kernel related, as the 3 ive tested quite unscientifically are definitely not better than the stock. and you are right, 10% is marginal.

the only thing these batteries have going for them is the cost per mAh, and even that is only very slightly better then the oem.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
It just so happens I have a digital scale that goes to the hundredth from a former life :D here are the weights:

Galilio "2000mah" (more like 1350ish in my testing): 32.67g

HTC Stock 1500mAh p/n 35H00123-25M: 33.36g

I'll also weigh a 35H00123-22M battery just as soon as I find where I put it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
Weighs less huh, figures. Did you buy the 2 pack deal? I wonder what kind of range in weight we'd see.

I would have to guess that these Chinese batteries have very little quality control coming out of the factory. I bet they do send out samples with >1900mAh, you just have to be lucky to receive it.

From my EVO when I should probably be doing something else instead.
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
Nope, the stock batteries are in rotation. In fact, i've got a stock battery in right now. Ive had plenty of time to do comparisons, and no matter what kernel im running i consistently get more life out of the galilios.
[EVO 4G Accessories] BIBUBO BCJ:
have you try Touch Pro II Battery ?
[EVO 4G Accessories] cheapskate88:
Q

you just don't want to make us goat porn. Admit it.

So does this mean that the batteries are as good or slightly better than stock? They're not worse are they?ww

[EVO 4G Accessories] Strobes:

If these chinese batteries was last scanned leaving china on 2/15, how long would you expect them to arrive?
[EVO 4G Accessories] cheapskate88:
December 1 2012...

In all seriousness, you should get in the first or second week of March.

I guess this thread will get bombarded around the beginning of March with how awesome these batteries are or how much they suck.
[EVO 4G Accessories] taadow1030:
Same shipping status here. By the time the batteries get here, I don't know of the improvement will be due to the battery, rom or kernal. lol. I was stock when I bought them.
[EVO 4G Accessories] SpaceMonky:
i promise you, it will be the latter.

anyone remember the chitech hype?

they are cheap chinese batteries, you're wasting your money.

send it to the devs of your favorite rom/kernel instead.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
out of the 3 i bought, 2 perform about 90% of a 6 month old stock battery, and 1 of them performs about 50% of a stock battery, so out of the ones i bought they are indeed worse. shocking, i know :)
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
by the way mine arrived lightening fast from china, about 10 days from one supplier, 14 days from the other. i ordered right before the holiday though. if you ordered after, expect delays. china is shipping massive amounts of product right now.
[EVO 4G Accessories] coiledwire:
About $15, what is that? A pack of cigarettes in NY? You're probably right, but I'm just trying to milk a stock-sized battery for every little bit.

And we all should donate to the devs; they give us more value for our phone than any battery could. I hope tax-return season is a good time of year for them.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
Am I the only one that pays in during that time of the year instead of receiving money? :mad:

Maybe you're the only one smart enough not to have the government collect interest from your overpaid taxes. I try to come out totally even when I file, but I always end up getting a few hundred back.

[EVO 4G Accessories] pardonmyownage:
I ordered mine on 2/5 and just got them today 2/19. exactly two weeks earlier. i'm in kansas. i ordered during the holiday and it says they sent it out 2/10. i figured it would have taken longer. i'm charging them right now. i'll post back later

hopefully i can find a scale and compare them to the stock. indeed they are probably a hit or miss, but for 16 bucks... well worth testing...
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
@OneStepAhead- I'm sorry you're not having the same experience as me with those batteries. They really have been awesome for me, and for pretty much everyone I recommend them to. The only thing I can chalk it up to is poor quality control, which is understandable to me considering their price. At least it wasn't a total loss for you, you still got a couple batteries that you can use in emergency situations for cheap.
[EVO 4G Accessories] aeo 37:
I have had this battery for about 1 weeks now and have cycled them over 8 x each and have noticed much of a difference. Very marginal if anything and I am on CM7.

For the price I get 2 battery and a charger so not really complaining

I picked up one of the CHICHITEC batteries, I dont have any real world results, but it seems better. Of course it could be the placebo effect :)

[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
no worries metalhead, i don't feel like i got ripped off or anything, they are great batteries for the price. im just impressed at Chinese manufacturer is actually branding their own batteries instead of making counterfiets. i actually have attempted to contact them regarding ordering them wholesale. havent heard back yet.

running the 2000mAh Galilio battery and have seen no tangible benefit. It is just as good as stock so if you are expecting the same life then go for it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jc8081:
Just got them in the mail today. Plugged in the battery charger 5 minutes later hear a pop and it smells like it burnt out? I am without power bc of the ice storm that but was using a generator u don't think it could be that right?

The battery still works im just afraid to plug the charger back in?

Also is there a way to tell if it's fully charged bc i heard that once it hits 100% its actually not bc its bigger then stock? Will battery widget work? Thankss
[EVO 4G Accessories] dottat:
I have the two galilio's and battery app widget monitor shows a constant 78F for temp... so i'm guessing these don't have a temp probe which sorta sucks. Anyone else notice that?
[EVO 4G Accessories] jc8081:
The charger doesn't show a light does that mean its not working? Thanks
[EVO 4G Accessories] dottat:
mine has a purple light on when charging...blue when done...
[EVO 4G Accessories] ninjoe8:
i've had the Galilio battery for almost a month now using nothing but MIUI and SBC Kernels. I was constantly getting the sudden drop in the morning on my way to work. In my half hour commute, i'd arrive at work at around 83% after playing Words with Friends or Kongregate. This morning when i got to work, i charged it from 80% to green with the phone off. 8 hours later it's still at 98% which is a drastic improvement. Obviously i haven't extensively tested this theory out since it's the first day i've gotten this result but i just thought i'd share.
[EVO 4G Accessories] xEVILFREDx:
Hey, I got the same thing. I did not even plug it to the wall. I just mounted it smell that smell. Got afraid to plug it so I remove it. Does anyone else expereince this on the first time use ?
[EVO 4G Accessories] taadow1030:
I received mine yesterday. When the charger light finally came on, it only half charged the battery after 6-8 hours. The battery did charge in the phone though. So basically, the charger is garbage. Will keep you all posted.
[EVO 4G Accessories] taadow1030:
Mine had a slightly unusual smell also... nothing to be concerned about though.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jc8081:
Will any evo wall battery charger charge these batteries full? I bought a charger off ebay..
[EVO 4G Accessories] _MetalHead_:
Weird. Was it the battery or the charger? I know the chargers are cheap pieces of crap so it wouldn't surprise me if something popped inside it. I had to cannibalize two of them at one point to make a single working one.

I don't see why not.

[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
that's only true of the extended batteries, not of the galilios.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
yes, i have charged them in the evo with SBC kernels. i still get a quick 10% drop though, which I don't get with the stock battery.
[EVO 4G Accessories] taadow1030:
I have... charges with no issues in the phone. The batteries are fine, but the charger is the problem.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Cherokee4Life:
1600mah.

I bought 2 batteries and a wall charger from Amazon the same day I bought my EVO 4G. I figures it couldn't hurt to have 3 batteries total. The 1600's will last me 2 full days on normal use (well that was before my phone was rooted and flashed)

The original battery works in the wall charger that came with the new batteries. I believe it cost about $30 for the 2 batteries and 1 wall charger.:D
[EVO 4G Accessories] cheapskate88:
Yep. Looks like you can't monitor the temperature on these batteries.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mutant13:
Great batteries, just got mine in the mail !!! I got a full 24 hours out of the first one I fully charged w/ SBC kernel ..... BETTER than $45 stock battery.... $17 for 2 of them, too funny.... great find, long trips will be easy now, THANKS
