Mugen has pretty decent support. Write them, show them pictures, and they'll send you out a new back or two
The one I have is not Mugen but the cheap 5000mAH one you find in ebay.
I was wondering how the Mugen quality since they are the most expensive one.
Not cool bro, shows again that affording a bit more is the safer way.
A friend had to send phone back to samsung because extended battery caused problems during booting
I have the Mugen battery and i am very pleased with the quality. The back cover has a textured feel slightly soft to the touch. Very high quality.

The battery itself works great for the price except for the back cover.
I have manage to remove all the peeling and now thinking of a good spray can
Btw, it looks like there is a huge chunk missing on the lower right corner..
if its a missing chunk its saying you are playing football with your phone and its no suprise the thing is peeling off

Well I got sick of the added bulk/weight of my verizon dual case looking around on ebay I found this Ringke case. It's a silicone case, not too much added protection if it were dropped but just for daily use it's good enough. It definitely improves the power button feel, barely even have to touch it. Fit's nice and snug on the phone adds almost nothing to it. It isn't like most silicone cases collecting lint/getting stuck in your pocket it's a different material never seen it on a phone case before Only real complaint is with after market chargers the rubber kind of gets in the way but other then that I have zero complaints about it. For the price I think it was a decent deal.
just figured there might be others out there not sure about it, like I was and give a little insight on it.
16.00 shipped
Ringke Case
if really wanted I could get pictures of mine on the phone.
I'll post a video review in a couple days. If your looking for a case which add very little bulk to the phone this is it. High quality silicone which doesn't pick up lint, dust or dirt.

Thought you guys might be interested...
Any videos or pictures of these used on the device? Would love to get one but I have no idea how it looks/what thickness it adds, etc.
Thanks for the links!
I think it will be bad for our gps
Would like to hear from someone who has already purchased one of these before i get one,look nice though.
expensive
check dealextreme/focalprice.com that you probably get lower prices
search for i9100, instead of galaxy s II

amen! amen!
I would strongly recommend to think about how hot our phone is in games like Asphalt 6 and imagine how hot it will be if u use metal cover. Don't get you fingers burned.

Now, you can actually literally "feel" the engine moving in Asphalt 6, or more like burning

Gelaskins does make great skins. I bought numerous skins from them and have had no complaints of their work.
I LOVE this bumper too, and also thinking of doing something different with the battery cover/door, but I might just get a white colored door and call a day
Where did you get this from? Which eBay seller?
Do you have a link to this bumper case?

Actually, it's around the USB port area that the black TPU section can tear itself away from the white plastic. But I've been able to fix it by using a small dab of superglue. The result can be quite stiff and reassuring. At only 3 bucks a piece, it's still an excellent case. I have 4 of these.
BTW, I bought mine from focalprice.com
I have had mine on my phone going on 3 weeks and have had no issues. I could see there being issues with the black coming off if you take your phone out of the case alot. so far i have yet to take it out since i put the case on, I have did battery pulls but the case does not need to come off to do so.
design
where to get design like yours? Or you made it yourself completely? Would you upload it here?
Thank you
Does anyone know of a way to get a replacement battery door for a reasonable price?
I just got this phone a little over a month ago, and already the battery door doesn't fit anymore.

It seems like it's too big for the phone. I pop in one side, and the other side pops out. It's impossible to snap all the pins in at the same time. I have no idea how it got this way.
I called samsung and the service rep told me that the battery door is the only thing that is not covered by warranty.
No offense, but it looks like you're not inserting the bottom end of the door first. That's the part sticking out in that picture. It slides in first, then snap the rest in place

I wish it was me just being stupid. I've spent a good half an hour trying to maneuver it into place. No matter what I do, I can't get all the pegs to snap into place.
I'd like to add that I called the genuine Samsung accessory department, and the ditsy girl on the phone said she has never heard of a gsm galaxy nexus, and she only had the Sprint and Verizon one in her computers. Those back covers are only $9, but unfortunately don't fit my GSM version.

Just don't get the ones with the metallic look. They may look pretty, but they have the same fit up problem, AND also weaken the radio. I had a lot of trouble getting a GPS lock while using those, and my cellphone reception was weaker too.
you probably forced the cover on also not putting it on properly, causing the connectors to wear out.
Been using this case for awhile now.. Does add some bulk but protection is almost up there with otterbox.. This thing even has dust filters over the speakers.
How well does it protect the phone? Well, I finally found out. I have had a few drops from leaving the phone in my lap and jumping out of the car and what not. But today was the one.. It happened so fast.. My girl seen me in the parking lot and I was on the phone and she was gonna run up behind me and surprise me.. Well, she did.. Knocking... Catapulted my damn phone through the air.. It was now all in slow mo.... I watched as it twisted through the air and landed hard on the top left corner and the back up it went bouncing like a damn 350 dollar ball across the parking lot and the sliding to a stand still face down.
I just knew that it had cracked the screen but I was surprised that there was not a mark on it but hit hard enough to knock the back plate loose and a nice dent in the hard plastic part of the case.
If you are looking for a good case for your nexus 5.. Do you self a solid and get this case.:silly:
Pics?

Looks really cool!!
I was really considering this case for quite a while but because the n5 is a large phone, the added bulk is not the best thing for people with smaller hands as far as I know.
Do you have any comparisons between the bulk added by the aegis and other cases as to give people an idea of the size?
Thanks
