The note attached to the replacement says, “T-Mobile and HTC are providing a replacement for the T-Mobile Wing battery made by Dynapack at not charge to you due to rare occurrences of the battery overheating.” Ask for yours before your phone asplode.

Yes, My original battery heated up like fire and did so for about 30 minutes. I got it replaced and then about a month ago I got the same package as described above. Just today the Celxpert battery decide not to charge up! So I called T-mobile to get it replaced and they originally said they did not send out the battery. I called HTC and they said they did not send out either???? So now I’m stuck with a dead battery and I’m on the phone with T-mobile again telling them to look online and do a search for the battery replacement issues… stating that their are plenty of searches describing the replacement of all wing batteries and that it should still be under warranty and that they should pay for the replacement battery. But they are telling me that it is my responsibility because my warranty is up on the phone ??? Yet I just got the new battery 6 weeks ago? Shouldn’t their be a warranty on the new battery if it was just sent out?
