Hi everybody,
This is my first topic in this forum, but I have already read you lots of time and you were very helpful for me. I have a problem with my Galaxy nexus, for work I travel a lot, but I’m not able to reach evening with the phone turn on. I do not want to change the inside software with a mod application, so I decide to buy an extended battery. I live in Italy and the only one avaible for my phone is an Mtec battery. There are lots of review in the net about it, and they are quite good. With the extended battery the old TPU cover can’t fit properly, so I need a new one. I looked about a “Hyperion Samsung Galaxy Nexus Extended Battery HoneyComb TPU Case”, and it seems good , so, have someone use this cover with a standard internation extended battery (not yperion, Anker, Qcell battery)?
Regards,
Sorry for my English , It isn’ t my mother language

I own and like mine.
It will last about 14 hours using GPS / maps, heavy network use and some browsing during lunch. Also have the "Hyperion TPU Case" - search ebay for bundled deals. I really like still having 20% battery left when I get home and not carrying a car-charger AND a spare battery.
I purchased the Hyperion battery and absolutely love it. I also ordered two cases with it. Instead of the Hyperion case, I got the Trexcell tpu case for the galaxy nexus and 3800 mah battery; reviews were better, and I can verify that it is a good fit. I also got the Seidio extended Convert Combo, and love it.

Love the battery. Hated the case. Took a knife to it and exposed the power and volume buttons. Now it's good.

That was why the TPU case that I got (along with the Seidio) was the one from Trexcell instead of Hyperion. The Trexcell TPU case has the buttons already cut out. The Trexcell is quite nice, although I've hardly used it since trying the Seidio extended convert combo.

Sorry if I never answer before, but working is killing me....
I look about Trexcell TPU case on amazon, and from pictures, it seems it' s not a flexible cover, but a rigid cover, can you confirm this, or am I wrong? Thanks

No... The Trexcell TPU is a typical TPU case. Somewhat flexible, but stiffer than rubber or silicone. It's actually quite nice for the price.

Hi everybody, at last I bought seido extended tpu case, and the battery is a very cheap MTEC 3800 mha.
The cover fixes properly, so thanks everybody for help!

Hi,
Wife loves her Evo, but hates the battery life. She really uses it, so she has to keep it on the charger. I have a Platinum (aka Seidio) 3500mah battery and love it, but she doesn't like how it makes the phone "huge". So I got her the Sprint battery. It's not much smaller, but apparently it is good enough. But she won't use the phone without a case. This is probably a good thing, because she drops it. Much more often than I like. I've been looking for a good case that will fit the battery. I've seen several posts that say that Seidio's Surface extended case will work. But I was thinking about the purple Laza case for Laza's extended battery (can't post a link. It's on Amazon). She loves purple, so this would be perfect. Does anyone know if this would work, or if there are any other cases that I should consider for her phone?
Thanks
In terms of cases your gonna be limited on what you can get . In the case of the Seidio (which I have) I had to cut the back out of a TPU case and more or less make a bumper case on my phone . Essentially you could do the same with the Sprint 2600 and its backplate . But you will still have a hump coming out of the case . The Laza case I believe only works for their backplate unless you are planning on getting that with the purple case . Like I said your options are gonna be limited . In terms of cutting a case like I mentioned before . If you take your time and measure it out very well you would almost believe it was part of the extended battery back and one piece .
Can you buy the backplate separately from the battery? I didn't see it for sale anywhere, but might have missed it. I'd be fine doing that if I could do it and if it would work with the battery. I'd also do it for my Seidio battery as well. I'd rather have one of the silicone cases than the Seidio case.
More than likely you should be able to buy the battery back by itself . I know Seidio sells their battery back as a seperate part . As for other battery manufacturers I am not sure about .

Right. It's just a question of finding one that will fit the Sprint 2600 battery. It has an oddly shaped battery cover. If I could replace the battery cover with something more common, then the world of cases would open right up...
May this help you decide
For what would be cheaper than the cost for a back elsewhere I thought why not just get a cheap battery for the price.
The 2600 battery I have is a cheap chinese version its the same size as the 3500 I got from Amazon, they fit the same back... Appears to be the same size as sprints 2600.
http://www.amazon.com/Laza-Sprint-Extended-Battery-Silicone/dp/B004LOBXZ2
The 3500 (generic, not laza) was 8$ and some change, comes with a back (exact size as lazas 3500 battery back) and fits the laza silicone case (you mentioned) that I also got (14.99) and it fits perfect, so you could use both 2600 and 3500 batteries with same back..
Those and a 6$ hdmi cable qualified me for free shipping (took about 2wks)... but all for under 30.
Backing fits case, contours and protects well, awesome battery life
after calibration. I been using for about 3 wks now.
No complaints ...it is bulky but I got big hands and it feels sturdy.
i bought my case from gorillagadgets.com check it out. pretty nice and fits the phone w/ extended battery

Do you happen to have the link to the battery that you bought. Buying an ultra cheap battery for the back sounds like a good idea for me. I already have the 2600mah from Sprint and it's too late to bring it back. I used it for a while, and I liked it, but in the end, I opted for the Seidio 3500. So I want my wife to use the 2600 from Sprint.

Cut up the silicone case. Make it fit.
Just got back from a cell store, I may have to hack up the gel case. Its gonna be hard to find something else.

Seriously tho, the phone w/extended batt fits in the otterbox without cutting up the back part of the case??? Got any pics???
I haven't found anything that is custom fit yet, I ordered a 2 piece snap together case that I'll have to do surgery on.... but at least it will have some protection.

I have an extended battery on the way, and have been trying to decide on what to do about the case. I have the Otterbox Commuter and really like it. I had been debating on this same mod, but if I do it, I will probably try to not cut the silicone inner lining. I think I will be able to only cut the outer shell and the inner lining would still provide some protection. My fear is that dropping the phone on the battery with no protection at all would kill it.
I just got a silicone case and cut the back so the battery can stick out lol.

The otterbox can be modified plus may give you a better look ehh versus hindering its defense against Dust and dropping it I would consider the silicon case with the back cut off but personally me I got the otterbox and got cm7.and tweaked it my battery last 29 hours plus I have a year warranty case backing it up

There is now a case available for the captivate with extended battery. Search for "Custom TPU protective case for Samsung Captivate" on ebay. It does not fit the seido 3000mah battery since it has the stupidly oversized battery door (and is stupidly expensive anyway), but fits the common size extended battery door which is included for all the other extended batteries from 2100 -3500mah I have seen. It is a slightly harder material than the body glove case so not rubbery (a plus for me since I don't like the soft rubber on some Otterboxes).
On another note, if you don't like the oversize extended battery, there is now a stock size 1800mah battery for the captivate. Search ebay for "anker captivate battery." I use roms with good battery life (dlev 4.2 and Svii are the best I have found), plus tune my phone to remove unnecessary processes, so 1800mah is plenty to get me through a day of heavy normal use. But with a big extended battery I can make it through a day of heavy abnormal use, using GPS as much as I want, tethering through most of the day, and playing intense games or watching videos for hours.
More extended battery notes.
If you want to get your phone as close to stock size with a large extended battery, the solution also comes from ebay. Search for "mesh captivate case." It is a rubber coated plastic very light shell for the captivate. And it comes in colors if you want to jazz up your phone. Long shipping time from china, but only $3 with free shipping. It is the best case I have found for mods since it is semi-rigid so holds its shape and easy to cut with a dremel cutting wheel. It can be cut to accommodate the door of an extended battery, but an even better solution is to use it without a battery door at all. This will get you as close to stock size as possible with a large extended battery.
Cut a square in the shell to fit the battery itself without the battery door. You don't really need the battery door since once you slide the slider up, it holds the battery in without it. You have the shiny battery protruding through the case only a couple of mm and only in the 2x2" section instead of the much larger section you have to cut out if it had a door. You can paint over the battery with black paint so it is not noticeable, and when you hold it in your hand no one can even see it's a frankenphone.
An unmodified mesh case is also useful for me to not have to use the metal battery door with a stock size battery. You can put a small piece of sticky velcro (or whatever) on the battery as a spacer and put the mesh case on the phone without a battery door. With the 1800 stock size anker battery and the mesh case, it is lighter and thinner than any stock phone with a case plus has 20% or more battery life, better GPS, and better ventilation.
I don't like to use the stock captivate metal door since it degrades the GPS on my phone. When the metal door is installed, I cannot use the GPS on my phone while it is charging since it is so inaccurate. When using the mesh case or the extended battery with plastic door, the GPS works much better and works fine while charging.
The downside to using the mesh case without a battery cover is that the internals are more exposed to dirt, dust, and water. Since I don't use my phone in dirty or wet environments or drop it much, this is not a concern to me but could be for some people.

OK. The title says it...
I've become a huge fan of having an extended battery pack on my Note. The battery lasts almost all day with constant use. It's awesome.
My only problem is that I hate to roam around with a $700 phone that has NO case. I even used a razor blade and cut up a silicone case to "create" a bumper to protect the edges. However this hack isn't ideal.
I'm using the Hyperion Extended 5000 mah battery and I'm hoping to find a suitable case or bumper that will work with it. Has anyone tried using the Hyperion or another extended battery with a bumper on the market? Has it worked?
I've read in many other threads that people are looking for the same thing... However no one's made a thread about it.
Please post if you've found one or are also looking for one!
Mine should be here in 3 days. Also would like a good case for it. If not, I'll buy a sleeve for it
How u liking that massive battery? Feel like getting one since they are under 20 bucks.

I really like it. The size would probably bother most people, but I'm 6'5 and it doesn't bother me at all. Just wish I could find a quality case for it.
I'm sure Hyperion will make a case for the extended battery like they always do. But they're always ugly imo. No case is as pretty as my zenus capsule

I don't have a picture at the moment. I don't have that exact model, but the model I got from ebay is a 3800 mAh. I also got a case that fits around it.
With the case and the battery it is probably twice as thick as the phone with standard battery and no case. I don't mind, it fits in my pocket very easily and I feel much more comfortable with it.

Same questions to you... Have you been able to find any cover?
I just bought a cheapie ebay extended battery with cover, and it definitely improves battery life to nearly double the oem battery. I am pleased for the $8 I paid.

Couple it with a bumper case (so the cover fits) and you have decent protection.
I bought an Onite 3500 mAh battery from Amazon several weeks ago for vacation days hiking. I was surprised how small it was. I didn't take it off until a week after I got back. In the city I get at least 2 days with juice to spare. It also supposedly has NFC, but haven't used it yet. It came with an extended back cover.
I bought an extended soft TPU case and pair that with a Seidio surface holster.
I paid about $13 for the battery, and combined with cases, no shipping.
I'm definitely happy with the battery.

I bought that case and it is fine. It is actually somewhat translucent and has a slight pattern on the back. It means I can't keep my mad money in my phone case, but otherwise it did the extended battery well.
The Onite batteries seem to be getting more expensive but they can still be found for about 25 dollars, which I still think is a good deal. My 13$ battery is a veritable steal.

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...

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.
Edit: here is a link to get you started...
Check this out on AMZN:

I know you said you have a 2100 battery and this is for 3800. I just looked out up quick but I know there is one for your need.

Thanks for the help. I saw that one yesterday. I'd rather not have the huge 3500-3800 battery so I have been looking around for one and am not having much luck. I'll just keep looking. :good:
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)?

Thanks for the replies. I've got the Verizon holster and I like it but with this OEM extended battery and cover, its a real snug fit. In fact it's really too snug.

My carbon case. It comes with a two layer case with a really cool kickstand, a holster that can double as a stand, and I screen protector for under 15 bucks on amazon. I don't have a like but it's pretty easy to find
