Was just wondering if all of the extended battery sizes require a new back cover? Like is there an extended battery that fits in the stock phone casing?

Not that I'm aware of. I have the extended battery and love it. Even if it is bigger.

Yeah I have one too, its just that since there aren't really any sturdy cases that fit the ext batts I was wondering if I could get a smaller ext batt that would fit in a normal sized housing and therefore normal sized case

My supplier has made a mold for TPU cases that fit the inc 2 with the extended battery door. Only problem is he's now not sure if the dummy phone he used for the mold was the correct size. I need someone to tell me how many mm thick the inc 2 is with the extended battery door. If its 14mm, were in business. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks!

If no one knows, does anyone have the Inc 2 and extended battery that would like me to send them a free case to test the fit?

Damn. How did you measure it? With a caliper or just by eye with a ruler?
My previous measurement was with a steel rule with a slider on it.
With calipers it measures 16.13mm or 0.635inches thick.
Also the box on the battery states it is a 2150mAh battery.
The box shows Verizon and HTC logo on it.
The code above the upc code is HTC6350BATX.

Here is a one piece...just sharing....

The trexcell case is nice but does have some flaws. The buttons become hyper sensitive/hyper unsensitive in some cases (had to cut out a small segment from the inside) and the USB port area is far too small, as is the headphone jack area.
but a knife fixes everything.
I am looking to purchase a new case for Hyperion battery, since I do not like the silicone case for it.
If you are using and know of any other cases then please share

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.

Check Amazon, I searched the other day and I believe there were at least two cases that claim to fit hyperions battery.
Sedio Extended case with stand
I have sedio case and battery cover and I am satisfied with it
Found one

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.

I'm just posting to let people know that I've personally modified my Otterbox Commuter to fit the oem samsung extended battery. I was able to do this by simply using an xacto-knife to cut a battery-shaped rectangle for the extended battery to stick-out through the standard batt. door that came with the device. Then I just slipped the silicone cover over my s3,flipped it over(screen down) and cut around the raised edges on the silicone that outline where the battery was pressing against the silicone, and after that I was good to go. At the moment I'm not able to take pictures.

I would have just left my battery door off instead of cutting it up.

Ya....except for the polycarbonate shell on the commuter which holds the battery , since i cut the silicone and slim battery door to allow for the battery to stick through...

Not possible with this mod. If you read my post it mentions i cut the slim battery door because the EXTENDED battery obviously wouldn't fit otherwise.

I was just meaning to not use a battery door at all, just modding the case and putting on the phone without it. That way, you could always put the stock battery back in without a hole in the back of your phone.

What holds the battery in place? The hard cover of the otterbox?

Yes the hard plastic cover holds the battery in

I gotta admit it is pretty cool. Ive been thinking of getting a extended battery and the main thing holding me back is how bulky it would be and the lack of case options. But I love the commuter case and it seems to work. Does the case create a bump on the back when fully installed?

No, as the polycarbonate isn't flexible, it does NOT create a bump or distort the outer shell in anyway. The shell should remain perfectly flat, if installed correctly

Thank you Op this was perfect, sitting here right now with my fav phone case back on and you would never know the extended battery is hidden in there.

this looks super interesting to me but i would hate to have to cut up my case in case i want to sell it in the future. i was thinking about getting a cheapo battery door to cut up and use but i was wondering if i could get away with not cutting up the rubber portion of the commuter case.

You will need to cut the standard phone back portion of the case and the rubber portion of the otterbox this will bring everything flush with the extended battery. The outer shell of the otterbox acts as the new back cover it works really well i personally couldn't be any happier with the result.

Has anyone found those oem Samsung 3000 mah batteries for less than $50 yet?
Galaxy S3, DarthStalker ROM & Kinetic Pulse Kernel.. Perfection.
Could the defender be used if you just didn't put the battery back on? I am currently used a UAG case this way and it works good.

No it wont fit it is a little too thick.
Came across this case that looks as if it fits the larger 3600-3800mah battery's, if you notice it bulges out the back. Decent price as well for that added protection.
