You could search with the serial number to find one. There are not too many phones out that have an extended battery made for it. Phones such as the HTC EVO. Other than that, I would look to get a power managing app like advanced task killer.

Advanced Task Killer tends to waste more than it saves and it really trashes how Android runs. ;)

Yes yes .. to Obi Earlymon you listen. No task killers. At least, not AUTOMATIC ones.

Sure, there is an occassional rogue app that needs killing by hand - but there are tons of reasons why you shouldn't use task killers. Mostly because Google tells you NOT to.

This is the best summary of task killer information I've found.
