White HTC Evo 4g Extended Battery Covers For Sale $15 plus Shipping

Hey guys, took a quick hopefully effective video with my mother's Samsung Moment, anyway video should do the job. Figured I'd do a similar thing Joey did with his custom colors (BTW they're awesome!). Thanks!

Just informed below these are the cases sprint uses...

Sorry to break it to you, but those are the ones that Sprint sells with their 2600 mAh extended battery. It's $55 and comes with a black and a white extended battery door. I have the white one on my Evo right now.

Thanked your post and added it to the op

i dont understand what happened?
the $55 price is for the sprint battery plus two covers no?
from the thread title I thought the op was selling or linking to someone selling just the battery covers?
i'm interested in one for myself. right now I try to avoid using the extended battery just so i can use the sexy white look, since I bought the white backing and battery cover (for oem battery though) from ebay.
question to OP: are you selling or know who's selling these? do they match the OEM white backing like the OEM white battery cover?

Aluminum Back Cover for Galaxy S II

I just saw this while searching for a genuine 2000Mah battery on eBay:

It looks awesome and it is pretty cheap, so I wanted to know if anyone has already purchased it and if it fits correctly.

iv got a similar type back. Made a review

Sorry to ask, but what is the use of such a back cover?
To make it feel more premium and heavyer so its better in the hand? Because it adds no protection at all for the screen.

i bought a silver one right now
when it arrives i will let you know
estimated arrivel nov 29th

Where does anyone say it adds or aids protection to the screen?
Its a matter of choice a custom feel to the owner.

Where can i buy it?

Why post a duplicate thread about the same thing????

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Metal-batte...Accessories&hash=item2a15675860#ht_500wt_1413
ordered this around a week ago. should arrive next week. this seemed to be the most premium one out there.

Just ordered one. Will this fit with a 2000mah battery?

Judging by the looks of it, it curves up at the bottom like the stock battery cover, so I doubt it will fit a 2000mah battery.

Loving the look on this cover, I'll probably get one in a few days.

I bought this cover few days ago from here:
http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Aluminum-Met...103889?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4cfb634e91
The seller was trustworthy enough, item arrived to Ireland after a week or so,
I'm very happy with it
Will attach a few close-up pics tonight once my digital camera's battery gets fully charged

Silver metal cover looks cool. I'm buying this one
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-Silv...ccessories&hash=item3f0fae9f04#ht_1965wt_1163

Never want to change my original back cover, but alimimum looking much better. Still love my original back cover.

Some pics
so here are few shots of that aluminium cover...

That looks really nice! How does it feel on the hand? Does it make the phone heavier?

The phone not only feels but in fact is heavier (compared to stock plastic cover, didn't weigh the phone though) and the back doesn't seem to attract fingerprints, but since I use SGP Case Ultra Capsule as well nobody can see the difference in style
It's solid enough and fits very well, easy to attach. Worth the money

Thanks! I'll be buying one for sure now.

It seems a bit thicker than the stock battery cover.
Is it just me or does it stick out 1mm or so?

I got myself a Galaxy Nexus 3900mAh battery from them and super-happy so far.

Share your experience on their batteries as well! Would be awesome to see some screens!

The back cover ruins the look and the feel.
PS those batteries aren't light.

Where can I find this battery on Mexico?
Thank you.

100$ just for a battery? gimme a break.
just buy some power adapter....

Apart from the high price (overestimated?) i think the problem would be finding a new silicon, TPU case that fits the new-shaped phone (my gs2 cannot live without it). This mugen battery seems enormous.
I wonder why samsung keeps making phones thinner and thinner and can't understand that people care more about battery life than thickness. With some mm. in addition, galaxy s2 would last longer and have a better grip, in my opinion.

From What I know, they ship overseas mi amigo, last time I checked they did, also, they´ll give you a $$7 USD discount if you like'em on facebook.

Is this a trusted battery brand for Galaxy SII? If so, where can I find it? (any link?)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app

it will be in my christmas wishlist

Will add this one on my buy list before going to vacation

Is this a trusted company? What do you say?

Everyone knows mugen. They're pretty known for their extended battery solutions. Even though they abuse the whole price thing...

2000 mAh is good for me

İs this so heavy?

Sounds nice, but the price is exactly one fourth the price i paid for new sg2 !

FYI, There are no TPU cases for it, but this battery comes with a leather case that is quite thick and gives reasonable protection.

i'd really like to have one of those....but the price is just too high

yeah, the price is killing me softely
.. also this big size of the battery.. is killing me too..
but the time of phone works keeps me still alive

been looking for one for my D710 S2 that doesnt make it super ugly, got a 2500 MHZ one but it didnt make a difference and it was slightly too think and i had to file the metal case down on the battery with a belt sander..... so i may see if they make one for mt SII

In real use, how much of a difference would it make? I have my stock battery, which lasts through the day (16-18 hours) with moderate use. Would this give me like double right away? And yeah, expensive indeed.
Greetings.

Replacement Galaxy S2 back cover for EXTENDED battery pack

Hello,
I am using a galaxy S2 with the Samsung official extended battery back (and the plastic cover that came with it).
I would like if to replace the cover, but I cannot find any website selling a replacement cover for this battery.
I am looking for 2000mAh version of theses things.
I am looking for something in metal, black metal, carbon fiber style, matte black or grey.
I live in France, so an european reseller would be prefered.
Thank you

First up you dont wont a metal back cover as this will block your GPS thats id you use it..
As for a replacement extended back cover there used to be a dealer on ebay Had one sent out to La Reunion some time ago.
Also there are some bummers that have a cut out to allow for extended battery..

Nyssa1104 is right, please don't go for metal back cover, you may end up blocking your GPS and eventually other connectivity issues may rise up. I was searching for the same thing today and luckily I found that it blocks your GPS transmission, thanks to the bloggers

Thank you for your answers. I will give up the metal!
I am still looking for a non metal one that is less slippery than the original one (something matte or with a carbon fiber-like coating).
So any link for this product would be appreciated!

why don't u try with carbon fibre look 3d vinyl sticker? it should be less slippery then.

Simply put, you cannot buy a custom battery cover for the extended 2000mAh battery. It's not mainstream enough to have one made for it. What you can do is what caliber2001 suggested. I have one as well, and I have done it to my S2's extended battery cover. Plus, it doesn't block your GPS signal!

Thank you very much, the matte carbon fiber sticker is a gret idea!

Don't use metal battery cover!
I have brushed metal battery door and metal draco design bumper and...No GPS signal! It was fine before I got the battery door.
So the metal battery cover is quite good at blocking your GPS.

I have already sold my SII along with the battery and case, so I can't take any more pictures of it. However, you can check out my other thread that has some pictures in it.

I received mine yesterday, the back cover is really nice and fits perfectly. The camera now rest protected and slightly indented in the cover. Probably this was the original S2 design at start, they changed for a thinner and lighter phone.
Dunno about performance yet. I use my phone a lot every day, so we'll see.

Yeah, I thought that as well. The battery cover is sturdier, and the whole phone has a uniform thickness, making the speaker/antenna area flush with the phone. Why didn't Samsung release the SII with a 2000mAh battery in the first place? My guess is that they wanted to compete with the iPhone 4's thinness at the time. If only smartphone manufacturers knew that anyone would prefer a phone with good battery life over one that feels like it's going to break easily.

Official Samsung 3000mAh extended battery arrived

Just got the Samsung extended battery for my gs3. took almost 2 weeks for shipment from UK.
Awesome thing is that my existing case, which i got from Spring when i bought the phone, fit. Its a very tight fit, but it does fit. Battery is slightly heavier and the phone is slightly bulkier, but still feels nice. I will test out the battery for a few days and see how it performs, the results will be posted here.
For now, here are some pictures:

The difference is 2-3mm. Its very minimal. So small that I can fit the case I bought for the phone with original battery. The case is hard rubber, but does stretch just a little.

Without power saving mode.

Ya, I was in the woods collecting stuff.

What day did you order and what shipping did you use?

It would be interesting that somebody be brave enough to disassemble the battery to see how much plastic is added.
I seen in Galaxy Nexus forum how someone disassembled extended original battery and it was filled with plastic, not the actual lithium ions. That battery fitted original cover.

This is where i was at since 3:00a...with the extended battery...

Not with power savings mode.

just curious, what kind of case is that in one of the pictures? When I lost my old galaxy, I had an Incipio Dual-Pro, but idk if that will fit.

Its the rubber one that sprint sell.
Here is a picture of my battery life

Who knows if and when about the battery kit is also available in other colorsTitanium grey, etc?

I emailed 1800 Memory, one of the ebay sellers ([email protected]) about the kit in Titanium Grey yesterday and this was the response:
"Only White, Blue and Sapphire Black colors have been released.
Currently only White and Blue colors are in stock.
Thanks

I went ahead and ordered the Kit with White Back Cover and I think it will look pretty darn good with the silver trim on the side and grey front.
