here is what I was thinking...
If you could cut out a hole in the Innocase 2 Surface, then another hole for the Rugged " skin... would the Rugged "Skeleton? fit?
On the first one you'll have to cut off the locking mechanism to the case. You wont be able to securely snap it on. Assuming the locking mec is in the middle of the two pieces. The second one will require you to cut off everything above the kickstand so the bottom half will not have be attached to the two top corner. I'll just fall off.
I do not see why you would have to cut the sides at all, the beck extends out, not the sides.
I considered doing this with my Incredible but never pulled the trigger. I thought it might be possible. I didn't have the extended battery to try it out.

Agreed.
Are you sure you have to do cutting?
No doubt seidio will come along with their case that fits their 3500mAh battery. Honestly I don't want an even larger battery adding bulk, the 2750mAh is fine.
I did contact HTCPeida shop and they replied back that they are working on a case for the ThunderBolt with extended battery. Of course they did say "it will take some time, but check back often". In the word of offshore manufacturing and low costs in china how hard can it be to get a TPU case with an opening in the back. Not that hard or so it seems it is.
Here is the seidio Evo 4G case http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/bd4-hkr5hev4x.htm
I bought the seido case that comes with all the piecesi linked (three total). It fits decently without the first layer, the camera flap has tobe removed or flipped under the rubber layer, and the kick stand is a bit difficult to use.
I emailed Seidio about their 3500mAh battery and of cases that would fit it. All I got was the typical reply, we do plan on offering it, but we do not have an eta at this time.

I would not buy the Seidio Battery. They get very bad reviews and I have sent two back.
You are better off with the original HTC Extended battery.
I had a post about this...
But I do hope Seidio does make this for the TB:

Will this fit on our phones? If so, Ill order that rather than trusting my hopefully steady handed cousin to do some dremel cutting. lol.
No. Look at the design of the extended cover, theirs is full and not just a little bump
I posted this else where but I figured it was relevant info to share here.
So, Ive been buggin the crap out of Seido with requests for them to make an extended case. Ive emailed them, dropped in on their thread here, and posted on their facebook. Today they responded to my FB post with this.
"Seidio commented on their Wall post.
Seidio wrote: "Hey, we're developing a rugged case for the thunderbolt. Let me get back to you later this week on extended cases for Surface and Active!""
Received this seconds ago:
"Seidio I got more accurate information for you. We are releasing a SURFACE extended and ACTIVE extended for use with the OEM extended battery for the Thunderbolt. You can sign up to [email protected] and we'll let you know when it releases!"
haha you just liked my comment LOL!
lol. So did Seido...lol
well heres hoping it releases soon because I am kind of concerned about the durability of my thunderbolt. also, my extended battery cover doesn't fit as flush as it would like. I wonder if I got a defective cover? go sharks!

Well, supposedly theres another one also coming out, and if they dont theres always doing the Frankencase.
Im thinking that the first batch of those covers sucked. Ive heard a lot about that but mine fits PERFECT even after I dropped my phone. My screen however cracked and pushes the need for one of these cases.
you cracked the screen? dang... i gotta be careful with mine. i assume your phone is still usable though?
This case color is red its bright not dull. So far loving the case. Buttons are the easiest to press volume and power button looks nice just need to find a holster now that fits belt clip one.
Price has come down compared to what it use to be. Hard plastic skeleton is nice lol cheaper than seidio active case .
Anyone have any of these? I went back to stock battery extended battery was heavy bulk and no good cases for them. Not to many to pick from.
Any one found a holster that works for this .
Looks ugly ....but not bad for approximately $6.
Here's a green one.

Thought that till I got it works pretty good just need a holster I have used a butt load of diffrent case all of them were either to bulky or a pain to use the volume buttons.
This one is easy to take apart and put together buttons feel better then ever and all ports are easy to get to. I paid only 3 for this one on Amazon. Not bad tho.
Ballistic made it a brick which I didn't like. Worth checking out tho cheap doesn't look as ugly when you put it on.
I have this case and its a good little case if you use the stock battery like the open mentioned.
II use the sedio(spelling) belt clip and it fits perfectly.

Wondering about that I found some on ebay tho they want 20 just for the holster. Case isn't so ugly I ordered a black on black one that was a diffrent fishbone case and they sent me the more expensive red on black.
Im just missing the holster. Seidio holster which one the Active one. Thanks again man I tried the off brand holster from best buy with it and the phone didnt wanna fit in there without bending worried I was gonna break the power button or screen.

I have a fishbone. it was cheap and one of the nicest cases I have had.

Then that's cool then . I'm doing a review on cheap cases and expensive ones.
Trying to find info out on what people are using and if they found a holster to work for it since Google searches turned up nothing on any site . When I get everything I need info wise making a list of cases that are worthy.
So yes I do have 2 posts on cases trying to gather info on things people are using . Gonna do a review on infectedrom.com . So if you have anything you recommend case wise or like about a case your using post somethin thanks.
Hello, I have been searching for a while for the best case and purchased several cases, and I think for me, the pop case is the best of all. (I have some TPU cases from amazon, case mate tough case, and pop case ( I wanted to try the otterbox, but after using the pop case I am going to just use this case)
Picture qualities are pretty bad, but it gives pretty good idea how it looks life overall. I have a white one, and it really makes my Gnex much more fancy and its really rugged with dual protection, so no worries about dropping the phone. All the buttons works perfectly all ports are working great as well.
Does it add much bulk? I'm looking to get it.

Does the USB cable that comes stock still fit with this case on? Reviews on Amazon say it doesn't.
also interested if the usb cable fits.

Yes the USB cable which came with "GSM unlocked galaxy nexus (which I have) does not fit but I have a OEM cable which came with verizon galaxy nexus which fits perfectly...(never used the cable that came with this..) so I never really knew untill now lol well if you have any other cable it fits well
I wonder if it works with the exttended battery?? Looks good
Yes it does fit very well with the extended battery. USB charger is not an issue if you have one that fits. Looks like Casemate removed the Pop and Tough case from their website. Could it be because they are looking into these issues?

Dang right when we get confirmation that it fits with the extended battery they take it off the website? DOH!

Please and thank you
sorry mine is GSM and have no extended battery.
You can find them on eBay in Black, White and Pink. $28 and free shipping. Just search "galaxy case-mate pop!". I ordered the Black but it hasn't arrived.
My Case Mate Pop case is arriving today as well, if you are looking to buy it for $16! check this company out shipping is dirt cheap as well from them. http://www.thecellguru.com/Phones/Samsung/Galaxy_Nexus/Cases
I got the black one, great fit, great protection, great case. Bit of a bugger to get off in a rush though !
How is it pressing the power button and the volume rocker is it easy or do you really have to press it in to get the effect?
Easy peasy to press power and / or volume buttons. I sent back a case mate tough as I couldn't activate the buttons freely enough, the case mate pop is much much better, just a bit of a pain to get off
I just got my white pop case today. I am using it with the extended battery on the verizon cdma version. The case is amazing! Great protection, doesn't add much bulk, buttons work great, fits perfect with the extended battery, adds extra grippyness. Highly recommend. I got mine on ebay as well.
I can verify that the STOCK cable for the VERIZON GNEX does NOT fit the port in the case. I got the black/grey case today from my local Verizon store for $19.99.
My old HTC cable from my EVO 3d does fit though.

jeez the Pop case winds up covering one of the mics? that's kind of a downer... wish I came here prior to purchasing the case on Amazon especially since it's supposedly arriving today.
Is there a hole for the camera microphone? Seems like the Barely There and Tough case has a hole for it, but not the Pop! case.
My phone is the Verizon Galaxy Nexus i515 and I've had the red Seidio cover for a long time. It came with a clip holster but the clip broke after 2 days. Got another holster and it broke again in 6 days. This was just from slight/small snags.
Basically I'm looking for something that can hold up against small snags. Also has all 3 combo (good rubber case/kickstand/clip holster).
This is something I'm looking for... only downside to this one is it doesn't come with a clip holsters. There's no indication, even on "what else user's bought after buying this", whether any clip holster will fit this particular brand. Link below...
http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-AMZ94208-Hybrid-Kickstand-Samsung/dp/B008B5DUT4/ref=pd_sim_cps_2
I like the thickness of it and how it has small covers for the USB port and headphone jack. It also has the kickstand.
Does anybody have this particular one and have a clip holster with it? If you do, which one fits with this brand? If not, is there anything exactly like the link above with all 3 combo?
You could try the Trident Kraken A.M.S. case. It comes with a belt clip. Its around $20 on Amazon.

Probably not. These are for stock only. I think I saw a Seidio case awhile back that had options to accommodate a bigger battery door. Seidio and Trident are my 2 preferred cases but I've never looked into one for bigger batteries cause I've never had an extended battery before.
You could type stuff like Trident Kraken case for extended battery. Same with Seidio.

I don't know how the kraken is, but my wife and I both have Trident's Aegis cases for our Sprint Galaxy Nexi and they fit good, even with the 2100maH battery.
It looks like the Aegis isn't a holster case.

The Kraken case is really good. Its encasing my Gnex right now. Provides ultimate protection and with military grade screen protector. Only issue with it
Is that its a pain in the arse to take apart when I have to do battery pulls sometime when flashing ROMs. I have no complaint about the rest of it.

I think with a better wording for what you're looking for is making it harder to find one. I know some products require specific wording in the search in order for it to show up. I was hoping that link would get you somewhere. I'll help you look for something when I get home from work.
You could also start a thread, if you haven't yet, and see if anyone bought what you're looking for and can point you to where they got it from.
Are you looking for a similar combo like mine (kickstand, holster, hard/rubber casing)?

Hey, Guys...
I'm hoping to find a belt-clip/holster for my S3 that I just mounted in an Urban Armor "Scout" case. I found a nicely made Duracell leather case that fits the 'naked' S3, but the UAG case makes it too big to fit...
Anyone have any luck finding something that works with this phone/case combination?
Thanks in advance!

I have a case on my S3 and use a holster for a Note 2 because it is a little bigger. It still might be a tight fit in the beginning because of the thickness but after a while it works fine.

Sorry, I got it a long time ago on ebay. I think it was something like $10 with free shipping. It was one of those chinese knockoffs but it has lasted me a couple of years. Just do a search for " Note 2 holster". Sometimes in the description they include the inside dimensions.I actually have 2 different ones, both faux leather, but they both work fine.

Urban Armor has very similar advice:
Q: Do you currently make or plan to make a holster for your composite cases ?
A: We do not currently manufacture a holster; however, this may become something we offer in the future. A few customers have reported using a holster designed for the Samsung note to carry their UAG composite case.
