Also just an FYI, the seido battery is supposed to not be much of an upgrade. I realize you say it gives you excellent battery life, maybe you just got lucky.  There's a thread around here where a guy does a lot of tests and it doesn't hold anymore juice than a 1500 in most cases.
Battery Testing Results... - Android Forums
Maybe there was something odd about his testing, I just figured I'd toss that out for everyone else. It might still be a good buy. |
This is good info. I had my Seido battery since May so there were no other options at the time over the OEM one. Technology is better so I would do the OEM HTC one if I were doing it now based on the results...
I do use the free tether wi-fi but I am rooted. Cannot find the link but I did save the info to make the 3G Hotsstop free...
