Battery cover

I just ordered my Evo. I have an innocell 3500 that bought with my Hero. Seidio informed me that the dimensions are exactly the same as the 3500 for the Evo. I would like to use it in my evo. Does anybody know where to purchase an extended battery cover that is like the seidio one? I like that one because with that cover it will fit in the holster that I have for it.

I tried google already and ebay. I found the battery and the cover for sale together, the innocase for the extended battery and a cover that wasn't like the seidio one. I was hoping to find a just the battery cover without having to buy another battery.

I apologize, it was actually a case. It looked like the cover to me. I'm not sure then. Google around til you find it.
I'll look and if I see something I'll let u know.

My guess is you're gonna have a hard time finding one. No one will want to get rid of just the cover if they still have a battery. And unless Seidio makes one, which I didn't see, you may be stuck with finding someone who no longer has their evo.
Sorry I couldn't help more. Let me know if you find anything.

I think you are right. I think I am going to just have to go ahead and order another battery as well. Thanks for trying though. Cheapest I have found so far is $53 on amazon through daydeal.

Found a cover here.

If you call Seidio customer service, they will sell you just a back door for the 3500mAh battery. I'm not sure of the price, but they will indeed sell it to you, even though its not listed on their site.

I bought one from and individual locally. Thanks to all for you help and suggestions.

OEM Battery Cover Needed

Hi All,
My back cover got damaged and wont stay put, please tell me where can I purchase them?
I have tried contacting LG, and they are back ordered.
Does any one wants to sell theirs?
Thanks

I think the only place you're going to find a replacement is through LG. Sorry, wish I could help. If you put the back cover on and then put a case over it will it be good enough to use for now?

Thanks, that's what I'm doing.. I went to AT&T store and bought a back cover.

Cool! How much was it?

And don't forget, there is an ultimate, universal back cover for any phone: DUCT TAPE.

Just buy a case for your phone and then place your cover on and then the case and everything will stay just on just peachy
It will probably be cheaper than buying the OEM backplate from LG.

And less messy than Duct Tape..ehem ehem...

It was $30 from AT&T store, and it's pretty nice

Is it an aftermarket part or an OEM / LG part? I guess it fits the same right? Is it still textured? The case feels kinda flimsy, I kind of want one as a spare in case anything happens while taking it off and putting it back on.

Kamranwpi was talking about a Nitro case he picked up at the AT&T store that covers the back. He is still waiting for his OEM battery cover he ordered from LG. I work with him , the case is pretty nice though.

I'm thinking about buying a spare Nitro cover and one of the extended life battery covers from the spectrum. I want to cut them up and graft them together so I can use the 3000mAh extended battery. The stock Spectrum battery is the same as our Nitro, but they have an extended battery option. Their cover won't fit ours. We just need a new battery cover that will work!
Edit* I called LG. They are out of stock on the Nitro battery cover and don't know when they will be back in stock. They were $17.xx shipped. I didn't give them my address so where ever you live, that what it'll cost you too.
You can get the Verizon extended battery and cover for the Spectrum online for $49, but they are out of stock too. Damn shame their cover won't fit.

I called to get an update on my order, it's even more 5 weeks, and I placed my order in Jan. 6, 2012

I find myself in a similar situation. Anyone ever have success getting a replacement cover? Who did you get it from? How long did it take? Thanks!!

Guys! I need help on this one! Where can I find an oem back cover for a bell optimus LTE?

Guys...just order a battery regular or extended on ebay...duh!

@stemalo,
OEM batteries don't come with covers which is what this thread is for
However, the suggestion to purchase an extended battery would work because those do come with covers. Might be a solution if people can't find the stock OEM battery cover anywhere.

kamranwpi did get his oem cover from LG btw. It was quite some time ago in late Feb. He has since sold his phone to get a Galaxy Nexus.

I'm just having trouble getting to the right people at lg.

Custom Battery Covers

Does anyone know of any custom battery covers? or back plates? I'd really like to get a collegiate one or perhaps one that is a custom color and design via an uploaded jpg. I know there are things like skinit etc. but I figure this is a pretty simple piece of plastic right? Couldn't be that hard to replicate and customize.
any thoughts?

Find someone who does vinyl wraps. Have them print something small and just wrap it.

clarification
just to clarify I am looking for an actual battery cover replacement. Not a skin or a case.
thanks

Vinyl
I hadn't thought of a vinyl wrap like that. That's a great idea! :good:
I really want to get an actual replacement cover... but if I cannot find anything soon that might be my alternative.

I bought I carbon fiber back from eBay search in china japan they have them.

You can get just the plain Samsung cover. They can be found for $8 for a pretty nice one. I finally found one that fits right. I can find you the link. Keep the new one as a back up replacement and use the old one wrapped. Since the rep I found has the Samsung cut out. I can post pics and stuff when I get home. I know they would do cases before battery covers.

New Back Cover...

Hey guys,
so I'm planning to buy another back cover (Pebble Blue), but the only one I found is i9300 version back covers of this phone, will this effect NFC in any way? Or is it just a back cover? Don't know, I read a previous thread and they were talking about NFC and battery cover so I didn't really want to buy a new one (Which is not cheap by the way ) and end up having to keep it on the side. Reason why I want a new one is I dropped my phone today, but the back was just scratched at the top corner on the battery cover, and I'm planning to get Ghost Armour soon, so I want a perfect condition before putting it on. Is Ghost Armour worth it? If anyone happens to also find a back case for under $10 please do tell, that would be awesome, but I've had no luck.

This is the wrong section, should be in accessories.
This has been discussed in great length. Here's is one of the many threads.

The NFC is in the battery, not the battery cover. Metal back covers could/will interfere with it.

flip cover

My OPO flip cover (original) is falling apart, and I am having a hard time finding a similar replacement. The few that I can find on Amazon or Aliexpress have wallet slots/pockets or the wrap-around strap, which seem to add unnecessary extra bulk. If anyone knows of a good replacement cover, I would appreciate your suggestion. Thanks!

I find myself in exactly the same situation. Best thing I've found so far is this case from mofi. The problem is that I think it doesn't have the magnet that the original case has for waking up the screen. If you have found some other alternative I would love to hear of it!

I have bought that case twice already, it has the magnet. It's a pretty good case, but I liked the original more. Unfortunately the only place where I could find the original is used from private sellers.

I have a new and original blue Oneplus One flip cover in the box. PM if interested.

Thanks to CedArctic for sharing the cover you found, and to sRexMartinus for your testimonial! I have not found better alternatives myself, only an eBay listing of an original cover which had already been sold. I think I will give this one a try.
