Greg Mendel is also, by huge coincidence, the name of the Augustinian monk who is credited with being the father of modern genetics. ,

I called both T-Mobile and HTC. They both said THEY DO NOT carry this battery and ARE NOT offering it to customers.
I found a 2400mAh on a website for $59.95. I will buy one since it is my only options at this point.
The T-Mobile customer rep.(a very nice person) gave me the HTC sales dept. number 1.888.716.3594. The HTC customer rep. (not a nice person at all) was showing his displeasure at my inquiry. I think I am not the only person who has called.

TO: Justincredible and anyone else that cares…
Putting a higher mah battery in your phone is not going to destroy it! Milliamp hours (mah) are nothing more than runtime, they have no effect on voltage. If you are worried about your phone, just be sure that the voltage is still rated at 3.7v. A voltage any higher than 3.7 could (and proabably would) damage your phone.

Putting it another way…

Voltage = Power provided (like the engine in a car)

Milliamps (mah) = How long to sustain that power (like the size of the gas tank in a car)

1000mah or 5000mah the voltage (3.7v) is the same until the battery runs out!

…at the very least, those are the basics!

I heard there was an upgraded battery coming from the TMobile store. It was not going to be free! They do not know when it will be available! This was about four weeks ago! They have not heard anything more since. They said TMobile tends to just ship these things without confirmation so if there is a better battery it would most likely just show up at the stores! Frankly they seemed a bit ignorant of what is going on! So I doubt there is a new battery hitting any time soon!

That being said, I found the “eSettings” app in Market to give me a little better battery life. However, we are never going to be able to use these phones fully and get a lot of battery life! Turn down your screen brightness! I did that and it extended my battery life quite a bit! I also bought a small charger for $30.00 bucks that works wonders when I am in a pinch for some more battery life! Check it out at your TM store!
