Hi!
I just got my extended battery that i orderd from expansys, its the original extended battery.
But there is one anoying thing tough, the new little thicker backcover seems to slip of every now and then, it's like it doesnt go in to place when you press it down.
Is there anyone else with the same problem with this new cover?
the case back is the same for my best buy bought us diamond. it slips sometimes. doesn't click in.

Hmm ok, because i talked to expansys and they said that none had complained about this before, so the told me that i should send it back and get at new one from them...
difference between battery casebacks
I purchased a boxwave 900mAH battery and an oem case back to make my US diamond thinner. The smaller battery back does not come off without a lot of effort... have to push down hard, push, etc... the bigger oem caseback for the 1340mAH battery easily slips off. just a firm nudge will do it. So I think if they ship a new caseback to you it will still do the same thing. it is not even close to being as tight as the smaller case back.

But cant HTC fix that problem, i mean it's just a matter of making the clips a bit better if u understand how i mean, thats not a big thing for them :S
the same problem here bro ! i use the original extended battery and the case slip all the time in my pocket! bought mine in belgium.

It was a good dock.
Not bad for the price, doubt the battery is worth squat, though, due to how batteries are rated, there can be a huge difference between one 1400mAh and another. The HTC official ones are pretty good, so they tend to match or beat some 1600mAh batteries, so I dread to think what an unofficial 1200mAh battery is like, but still considering most docks cost about the same as this WITHOUT the battery, that's not bad at all.
I'm looking to get a dock myself, but I'm really wary about the cheapness of them.
well docks are pretty much a data cable in moulded plastic, not that much to them. I have no complaints with it though.
I think if you start changing the battery very often the back cover will brake... just the way THC made it?
do you think the phone would fit in with a skin on?

Well you have about 1mm each side of the Desire, I would say its a perfect fit without a case. Any more than 1mm all around and I'm pretty sure it won't fit.

I think the back cover seems fine, I think it is sturdier than it looks.
I tried out the 1200mAh battery yesterday and it lasted a whole day, so I don't plan on using it as my main but it certainly isn't useless.
Hey guys,
Where can I buy a black back battery cover? International shipping is a must
Cheers!
Replacement Housing ?

Well, that's an option but it's rather expensive. I only need the back cover.
HTC sell 'em, at least in the UK. There is a couple of weeks wait but it's worth a look.

what about getting a dummy phone from ebay, I think you can pick them up for around £5.
Not sure however if they are complete replica's of the outer housing so its a gamble

Care to share a link?
you have to be joking, dummy phones dont come to bits they are a fixed piece of plastic but the £15.99 back cover from HTC does look good but extremely expensive.
I just ordered a battery cover from htcaccessorystore.com. Will let you know if it's any good.
is it good....i need to buy one for me too....Want to do some modificatiosna on back cover and want another one for just in case something goes wrong
Go for it! I can confirm that it is a good purchase
damn that's 30euro just for the back cover

I dont think so. Even if there were, the phone would be MASSIVE by the time everything is in place.

This is only one i found on ebay. I was going asking if anyone has tried this yet.
There are 2 types, that I know of.
One like the link above, and one that is full across the back
I got the second type of back, (link) for $12, as I like how it adds protection for the camera lens
I got the battery from here, (link) and it comes with a the first type of back for $18
I don't mind how it thickens the phone, and it actually makes holding when I type on the hw kb a lot more comfortable.
With the 3500mv battery, I was able to have my Epic OC'ed to 1.4GHz, brightness set to 100%, have BT, WiFi, GPS, & 4G on all day, and use the phone normally, and the battery still was over 48% when I got home from work, 10 hours later.
If the price for that is a little extra thickness, I will take that any day. Espically since I can always put the stock battery and back on if I want to use the slim profile for some reason.
Whoops...the link i posted was for a phone cover with the extended battery, not the battery cover. When you buy an extended battery from the same ebay seller he includes the battery cover. This is the case to protect the phone.

The case is ok but right now moretalktime is making a updated version that makes the access to button layouts better. I currently have it but im sending back in and waiting for the updated version since the case blocks some basics features like the speaker and the mic hole.
Can't one use the clip in holster where the face of the phone is facing the holster nd the back of the phone faces outward? A holster similar to the one used with the Seidio Active X cases?

I got tired of the extra bulk and ended up replacing it with an extra OEM battery. I'm keeping it around incase I go on a road trip however.
edit: Nevermind. I just reread your original post
Well you know what they say about guys with huge phones....

Yes...the hip belt clip case by Eddie Bauer sold at Best Buy works great with the extended battery.
Just got this phone and love the battery life with the extended battery, but I really would like to put a case on my phone to protect it. Does anyone with the extended battery + larger back cover have case that works?
I searched around and I haven't been able to come up with anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
It's a long shot, but have you considered contacting Seido? Maybe they would know.

Yeah I did and they said they didn't make one at this time. I remember seeing someone saying they stuffed it into a case meant for the regular backing, but I don't remember the name of the case and can't find it again.
I haven't looked into it, but does the new Galaxy Nexus have the same layout as the Nexus S? If so, I might try and see if there is an extended battery case that fits it.
Hi!

João.

Do not see the real product...i guess it should be compact and light weight protecting case
Thanks for the suggestion.
Unfortunatelly I couldn't get that to ship to Portugal. That seller on Amazon.com doens't ship to my country.
End up buying a similar case (at least I think it's similar) from this buyer on ebay; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290945222818?var=590142602825&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 Unfortunatelly the quaility of the case is really bad and makes the phone look cheap. Also didn't came with a back cover for the phone so the doesn't fit well with the anker back base...(my bad didn't noticing that!)
Maybe Yesso cases are better, although I think so because the look exactly the same! But unfortunatelly I will never know.
Oh. and don't buy anything from this seller on ebay EVER! He's the rudest person I have ever met. Because I complained abou the quality of the case he started insulting me and left a feedback calling me "Crap customer.just a troublesome" after on a message saying I hope not to deal with you again.
Amazing, ebay these days!
Sorry the bit off topic there.
I wish there was other options for extended batteries. any ideas?
Joao.
