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?

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

**pics included** Black Cruzer Case on Amazon fits GSM perfect

I got the black glossy Cruzer case from Amazon and it fits snug and tight...better than my Incipio case I purchased from the Verizon store. The case is nice and durable. The power button and 3 prongs are open and the volume keys are closed with a nice rough texture. The volume keys are very easy to use since they are sealed. I recommend this case to GSM Galaxy Nexus owners and the price is not bad at all.
I gave it a 5 star review on Amazon.
Here is a link...
Check out the other designs Cruzer has... Android print case looks pretty cool too.

How is the fit and finish, for lack of a better term, of the case? How tightly does it fit around the face and how are the areas around the mold seam?
I'm currently using this Qubits case and while it is quite good, it is not perfect.

The fit and finish is great. It is not loose around the face or around the seams. Im telling you, this fits nice and tight all around the phone.
Sorry guys.... I'll get pics later today...give me about 2 hours.

I have this case and while it fits perfectly it takes away from the look of the phone. Also makes it bulky and just not the same. I have a smoked one if someone wants it. Will sell it for $5.

Best sprint extended battery?

Just got my sprint gnex today and I am wondering if anybody knows of the highest charge extended battery that doesn't involve replacing the back cover.
Also NFC support is a must.
badabump
I know you asked for extended battery but I don't know any I got this one from amazon and is just an spare battery with NFC and it comes with a really nice dock to put the phone too

If the Sprint battery is compatible with the Verizon battery then Verizon sells the 2100mAh for $25 at a store.

I don't have one either, but I think what's not compatible (without slight modification) is the Verizon back cover. I think the Verizon OEM battery would work fine on the Sprint device, otherwise.
Would be nice if Sprint launched with their own back cover and extended battery options.

The battery is a little larger than the 1850mah version that comes with the Sprint Galaxy Nexus. However, the back cover doesn't fit perfectly. You'll have to use a nail clipper or something similar to cut off the 2 small plastic nubs to fit the Sprint phone. There is a little bit of a flex on the cover where the nubs were cut, so unless you have a phone case, like a Cruzerlite case, I would not recommend using this battery/back for the Sprint version of the Galaxy Nexus. It's not major though, so it's possible to live with it if you're not really picky about the fit not being perfect.
The original back cover for the 1850mah battery will not fit with the 2100mah battery.

Wonder if samsung might make one for sprint?

Worth to do? Siedio case change.

I have the audio extended surface case with Hyperion battery now. But I just saw innocel plus convert which is the rugged surface case but includes 2 battery's which go into the case. Should I change cases? The one I have now doesn't protect bottom or top edge and doesn't seem like they will release a convert extended for surface cast. Anyone have thoughts on this?

If your case doesn't have any damage and you still have the original packaging I don't see why not. They might ask for shipping fees and any price difference. Tell them you aren't satisfied with the protection

I doubt anyone but Hyperion made a case that fits around their battery. Personally I'd ditch the hideous looking Hyperion door and pick up the official Samsung 3000mAh battery kit and a Diztronic Extended Battery Case, assuming you want a thin device with 50% more juice I never understand why third parties have to make such ugly doors for their batteries.

I purchased the trident electra because it has an extra Batt on board. Unfortunately, this coupled with stock oem battery wasn't enough. So i modded the case to fit both the trident batt and the HyPerion. I think the case is big enough to hold the zero lemon, which is what I'm going to eventually put in. Also, it only took about 10 minutes with a razor knife and straight edge.
I like that it doesnt look like a sled, or boat. Don't get me wrong is still Big.
