Default Problem with battery 1800 mAh

Hello,
I ve juste bought a nw battery on Qtek website :
http://www.qtek.fr/accessoire-435-427.html

It s impossible to make this battery working.
The WM6 tells me Main battery : unknown

And it can t be fillled.

Even on sector the phone is turning of!!!

I ve heard about a file batdrv.dll.

do you know if a new file could help me.

The only way I ve found to make the battery working is turning on in bootloader mode....

I'd send it back and request a new one or a refund (see below).

Is it an official HTC part? That battery looks exactly like the one I bought from ebay for EUR15 (great deal, even included shipping from HK). It works fine (electronically), BUT with some major issues:
1) The camera opening is open (lens unprotected & dust will get in, I pasted in a bit of transparent plastic but that obviously does not help photo quality)
2) The camera snapshots now have a shadow at the side because the lens opening is too close to the thicker part where the battery is located

Effectively this makes the camera unusable. Not that quality is any good with the original HTC cover, but still...

I was wondering if you had the same problems?

It seems that Qtek.fr are just fakes !
So it mustn't be an offical part of HTC....
And their customer relationship is just horrible!

Did you manage to make the battery working??????????,,

1) Looks like it, especially for that price!
2) It worked fine as it came in (was 50% charged). The only difference is that my 1800 battery is black.

I am not using it any more because of the reasons mentioned before, and the fact that the shape is not convenient any more. I am considering getting a 1100mAh battery (same size) and just live with the short battery life (maybe 3 full days of light use with 1100), or wait for a better one. I heard mugen are coming out with a 2000 and 3000mAh models. If

Could you tell me some online shops where I can buy a working battery? On HTC website the battery is only in pre-orderind and not available at the moment.

Plenty of shops, but stick to the 900 or 1340 mAh original. I received mine and no problem.

I have a problem "simillar" working with the Adapt Battery pack for HTC Diamond(1800 mAh) (http://www.adapt-mobile.com.tw/mobil...l.php?p_id=420).

For WM6 this battery is unknown ... and it is not possible to know if it is charging or not.

The phone is OK but the GPS doesn't work properly ... as previously happened with the Clove one

Hi!

Has your battery cover a "plastic" to protect the lens hole?

Your cover (http://www.4ustuff.com/product/pic_index/32821.jpg) is "identical" to mine (http://www.inkino.co.uk/zen/images/A...dBattery_1.jpg).

Is your battery manufactured by Intellect Brothers Co Ltd ? (Printed on the battery front)

Nos vemos

I will take a look later, when I arrive home.
Mine displays charging level.
