Hi, got a green lens defy running CM10.
Would this 1700mAh battery work in it. (can't seem to find a UK based supplier for an original HF5X 1700mAh battery :( )
Figured I may as well get the higher capacity one as a replacement for my dead one.
Are all HF5X batteries the same regardless of phone model stated.
Thanks

Keep in mind that 'fake'/non-standard batteries may go haywire and die unexpectedly and/or kill your device as their protective circuits tend to be cheap.

Personally, I would also avoid buying no name batteries. I'd rather charge my phone more often than to see my defy burning. Sometimes its already difficult to get the defy+ battery work in the defy.

Thought I'd let you all know the battery I got from ebay that I posted earlier in this thread as been working super, no problems whatsoever.
Seems a genuine motorola to me. :)
