All better I want is the cute case

It is a good idea to use a BlackBerry Torch 9800 Case for all types of devices since they are delicate electronics items that can break easily if dropped or slip out of your hands.

Let us know when you get it if it fits ok with that battery.

Which color did you order?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

It is a pretty snug fit with the verizon extended battery?

Thank you for a great find, I have been wanting a bumper case. Can we get a picture of the side with the volume buttons? Does it need to be modified at all for the volume buttons? I only ask because the case I have now is for the GSM version and I had to trim the inside with an emery board because it would turn down the volume by itself. But for five bucks it's not that big a deal.

You wont have anything to worry about in terms of the buttons aligning properly on your Galaxy Nexus.

So is the whole thing Tpu or is the outside hard plastic?

How is the case overall? Is it even giving any protection? It seems like it's not getting to the front at all. Does it add any bulk?

Looks like a nice case. And all for less than $5! In for the white one.
If you'd like to see it shown in a video, I believe this guy shows it at around 1:50 with I believe an extended battery. It's hard to tell since he doesn't talk and only gives thumbs up throughout the video. lol

The white portion is hard plastic.

my guess is that this case will fit for any battery since it leaves the battery cover exposed. The 3800mah battery will just stick out and not be covered. I don't know just my guess since I do not have the case. I think i will still buy one since it looks like it will fit anything.
Also the link says its for the i9250 but the op has it for the sch-i515? So I am assuming this is compatible for both cdma and gsm variants?

Great looking case,
Hopefully they ship to canada

Can the battery door be removed with the case on?

No

I hope you don't mind me posting pictures of the black one.
I have to say, I really like this case. I prefer this over my SGP Neo Hybrid case which I cut the back out of.
You can tell that this is a cheap $5 "chinese made" case because there are rough areas where you can see the injection points.
Also, right above the rear speaker, the cutout is too low exposing some of the housing of the phone itself and not just the battery door. It is very minimal and doesn't annoy me at all.
I can confirm that you CAN remove the battery door while having the bumper on for the GSM GNEX. I tested it with both the extended battery door and the original door. I guess there was a big enough difference in the Verizon one make this impossible.

CANADA
I LOVE that case! I'm looking for a case for my 3800 extended battery. I need it to ship to Canada...
Let me know guys.
At least what I could search on Ebay for it?
Thanks

Screen
Hard to tell from your video, does it have any lip to lift the screen off of a table if it is set down on the face? I think I can see one, but you mention that it won't protect the phone at all if it is dropped on the screen, which tells me that it doesn't stick out at all.

No it doesn't have any lip to protect the screen, a nice feeling case but not one for protection.

Yes there is. It's not big lip but just enough to raise the phone that the screen doesn't touch the table when placed face down. And I think this provides protection to most vulnerable parts of the phone: corners.

Yes it does. I think it's stupid. And there's no real use for it either: With a coin in it's place, it's not something i'd call very stable, so i rather keep the phone in my hand or have it leaning against something. And the looks could be more like in the s2s version. Other than that, i think it's a great case and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a minimal case that doesn't add to much bulk.
P.S. Just got the official slim case today (yes, the twin pack), so we'll see which one do i prefer...

I should have a replica mesh case soon which doesn't have the coin slot. Think if the quality is good it should be a wicked case.
The slim cases are nice I think you'll like them

Modded Flip Cover + TPU Case = Sweetness

Alright well I love the Samsung flip cover case but it has one major flaw. Almost no protection from shock/fall/sabotage. So I decided to do this.
Basically I took the TPU case and cut around where the flip cover flips. This allowed me to use both at the same time and still have full use of the volume rockers. May not look the prettiest on the left edge but it has way more protection. Now if my phone falls the corners won't get all messed up but at the same time I got the sexy flip cover to protect the screen (mainly from ear sweat loll)
Check it out, hope this helps someone keep their phone in great condition.

Awesome little mod! I've thought about trying that with my otter box but im too scared to take the dremel to it loll

[Q] How to protect phone from cracking screen? Whats best

What is best way to protect my S4 from cracking screen. I am scared to crack screen on it.
Any case ? or any screen protractor like zagg invisibleshield will work ?
Or any slim case or screen proctor combo ?
Only reason i gave up on s3 was crack screen.
My screen cracked even without dropping phone on s3 and replacement phone cracked too by dropping just from my pocket. so I moved to iPhone, but I love android.

Not dropping it.
No but really all you need is a case with a bumper that extends so the glass can't be the first thing to hit the hard surface. I've become a fan of cases that combine TPU and a hard barrier.

One of those safes from the Italian job and twenty cans of foam.

Just get a cheap tpu case. They've saved everyone of my phones from cracked screens.

this plus a case,(personally I went with an otterbox) and you will never have a problem.

Get a tempered glass protector (I got mine from Spigen), and then a case. That will protect your screen.

I use an xoskins http://xoskins.com and a case. It doesn't have orange peel like other skins and won't get scratched with sand or lint. Cases I prefer otterbox
