I'm just wondering if one has been made by any manufacturer... I'm reluctant to use my extended life battery due to the fact that I can't find a hard shell or rubberized case that will fit around the bigger battery cover.
I was wondering the same thing - I can't find anything whatsoever.

See I had you wishing there was one .....
I was thinking why doesn't somone offer a slightly oversized battery for our phones or any phone for that matter. ... I mean you could make it fit with allot thinner back cover and I bet convince just about everyone to convert to an extended battery ...
Instead of doubleing the capacity just add another 800-1000mah that plenty for the average- heavy user to get allot more enjoyable battery life and not have a huge bulky phone.

I agree. Though it seems like I have seen that mah advertised before, but I could be completely wrong. I know that I would purchase it if the extended battery door was in between the stock size and the fat Seidio door. I had the Ebay 3500mah battery and door for my Evo 4G, but rarely ever used it after a couple weeks. For that reason I decided to pass on an extended battery for the 3 D. Personally I'd rather have the ability to use any case I want and carry an extra battery instead having a fat phone with few to none case options. That said, if the bulk was minimal for a reasonably longer battery life then I would probably give it a try.
Swyped from my pimpin PG86100 using XDA Premium, boiiiii!!!
I felt the same way, but have a simple solution- ebay! There are slightly extended batteries available, but they work about the same as the stock battery. Just throw the extra battery in your pocket. Still thinner than an extended battery and door, easy to change, and lasts much longer.
I see it the opposite way. If you are going to bastardize the look of your phone by putting a big wart on the back, might as well really extend it and put a 3500 mAh battery in there. That way if it's going to look like Quasimoto and not even sit on a desk properly any more, might as well last forever. For me, if it requires a new back cover, no thanks.

hi, i'm looking for extended batteries that come with replacement back cover for motorola photon
can anybody give me input ?
on how the battery perform
and how good the quality of the replacement back cover ?
actually i'm leaning towards seidio because i've used them in may blackberries and they are good.
and also the other option that i found is
either the cheapo ebay stuff (where i'm afraid about the quality of the battery and the quality of the back cover
and also the Mugen power battery (i found the price is too steep for and extended battery)
so please advice
thank you.
I've been using a TREXCELL 3500 battery from AMAZON.Pricing is in the $20-$25 range & this is definitely a solid choice over SEIDIO.
I get a solid 10 hrs of moderate to heavy use & 14-16 hrs. of light to moderate use w/o re-charging.

No problems with them yet.
Can anyone give a link to a decent external battery charger?

I got 50 Hours with light use on my TREXCELL 3500 mAh =D Favorite battery!
hows the quality of the back cover on trexcell ?
do they feel flimsy ?
I've got both a TREXCELL & INCREDICELL(don't recommend the INCREDICELL).
The battery covers are equal, if not exactly the same.
Care does need to be taken when removing the cover, especially around the kickstand area, as that is the weakest point on the cover due to the contours that are present to accommodate the extended battery thickness.
Not a big deal, or, deal breaker. You can get replacement covers by simply buying an el cheapo extended battery for a few $ on e-Bay, AMAZON, etc.......
SEIDIO will sell the extended battery cover by itself, for $14..95.
You simply just have to call & ask for it, unless SEIDIO has begun listing them on their website.
Anyone ever try the Droid Bionic battery on the Photon? I am thinking about getting it.

hi thanks
this is what i really want
a hyperion battery and a seidio back cover
do they fit ?
why hyperion, cause i've heard good reviews of it on this forum and the seidio battery doesn't get good reviews
and also my friends buy the hyperion battery with the replacement back cover, but thte cover is very bad, he broke the clips within 2 weeks, so i supposed that the seidio back case is supposedly better.
the only question for me now is , are they compatible ?
i mean will the seidio back cover accommodate the hyperion extended battery ?
I want to get an extended battery for my Atrix since the original 1880mah dies within the day, and drops percentages during reboots, which can be calibrated, I believe.
But my question is those 2500mah or even 2800mah batteries, the ones that come with the thicker battery covers, really thick?
Does anybody have any of these mind uploading a photo of your phone, and how much does it extended, is it worth it?
If I were to get an extended thicker battery, would I be able to buy a case for the phone then?

Look at my review http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1280390
Secondly if its extended, count on the back being bigger. Most cases wont work. Silicon cases might, depends on how thick the back is.
hey all,
Im thinking about getting an extended battery for my note, probably a 5200mah. I was wondering if anyone has tried this before or if anyone thinks it would work. There is a tpu case thats meant to cover phones with extended batteries. Ad says n7000 but ive seen another ad that lists the n7000 and i717 as being compatible.
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/S021-NEW-TPU...hone_PDA_Cases&var&hash=item27ce2a9ae0&_uhb=1
what do ya think?
Hi, I bought both the tpu case($5) and the 5200mha extended battery with back cover($10) from eBay and am pretty satisfied. The case fits real well around this extended back cover, not being the best case only because I would prefer something more rugged, however it has a hole for charms. The extended battery is pretty good so far as well. I am a really heavy user, and this 5200mha battery lasts me for a while, definitely time and half of the original 2600mha battery. I read forums using my phone and am constantly flashing roms or playing/downloading new apps. In my personal opinion I think this battery and case are worth the $15.
triavq,
So how do you like the battery and case? I know it's been many months, but I am curious?
I have the same one ordered (in Black) but not received yet..long way from china to here!
I going to try and squeeze that case around a 7000mAh battery and back cover. I don't like the squared off back cover that comes with some of those extended batteries.
I am hoping the 7000mAh battery isn't much thicker than the 5200mAh ones.
Does there exist an extended battery for the Note 3 that doesn't make the phone thicker? All of the extended battery solutions I have seen make the back of the phone stick out a lot. Isn't there one that makes the phone longer instead by sticking out of the bottom? It would fit into my pockets a lot better that way.
