I would like a soft touch battery door that I can grip in my hand so my phone wont fly out please no cases just da battery door
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
That wouldn't work really work on the Fascinate seeing as the battery door is the entire back of the phone, and the sides... that would be almost exactly the same as having a case.

I have sent Seidio an email about this exact issue. They make a extended battery door with that ruberized feel. It is just like the texture they use on their cases. I asked them if they would make a battery cover for the standard battery and he replied that they would look at developing one. I hope they do.
That would be cool I would stop having to catch my phone from slipping

O well.... I got a new email from them.
Looks like we need more people to request this. I would seem that it would be VERY easy for them to manufacture this because they have all the tooling already made from all the other products that they already are making.
** PASS THE WORD **
This is the same thing they were saying about making ANYTHING for the fascinate before people started requesting.

Thank you for contacting Seidioonline.com. Unfortunately we don't have plans to

at this time. However, we are always in the process of developing and releasing
new accessories, so we do recommend periodically checking our online store for

Hey guys I don't know if my rep was misinformed or what but I said many users would like a rubberized back for the slim extended battery (same size as ours) and this was what I got.
Thank you for your inquiry at Seidioonline. We are more than happy to assist you with your concern. Unfortunately at this time we are not selling the back door for the extended battery for the Fascinate. We will sell that back door soon but as of the moment we do not have an ETA on when it will be available for purchase separately. We apologize for the inconvenience Your business and continued satisfaction is of great importance to us here at Seidioonline Customer Service, so feel free to contact us at(832) 204-1118 with any questions.
the rep could be confused and referring to the bigger battery or something...but we'll see

I hope they do... waiting...
just get the OEM kickstand case I made a thread about in this forum. It will give you the grip you're looking for without adding hardly any bulk and it gives you a kickstand to boot...
else, just spray a rubberized coating on your current battery door.
Thanks, but that case adds too much bulk to fit docks that require the device to be 'naked'

Until you drop your delicate phone, it breaks, and you realize the minimal added bulk from a case would have saved you a lot of $$$ and time. Also, that's kind of a silly thing to say considering all phones come naked.
<--Used to say he'd never use a case either, but after his tank-like Droid 1's screen inexplicably cracked from a 3-foot fall will never go without one again.

They're in stock and available now. This has always been my favorite case. I don't like things that inhibit the phone's thinness\natural design, so I like slip-in sleeves, and Sena makes a good product.
Look around on the net there are 20% off coupons... their ordering\delivery process leaves a bit to be desired, but the product is good.

You're wrong actually. Time for English 101.
Dictionary: "enclose in a protective container" so in face the item that you refer to as a "case" is not a case, it's a backplate, or protective shell. A true case, by definition, en"cases" the item for protection. How does one access files in their briefCASE when they need them? They take them OUT of the briefCASE. How does one change clothes when they get the hotel? They take their close out of their suitCASE to use them. How does one get the term nutCASE? They take silly comments out of their head and place them in places like here, where you said SenaCases.com isn't a case website.
If you use the phone when it's in a case, it's not a CASE.
I completely understand the non-literal definition of what's included in the word "case" has become lose over the years... but your comment was just inaccurate in every way.

I had this case for about a day, and returned it.
- renders the OEM desktop dock worthless
- renders the OEM car dock worthless
- makes the charging cable not fully click in to charge w\ cable
- collects dust under the back part and gets a little icky
- provides no screen protection & screen protector makes resolution grainy
These were just my reasons for returning it. Not sure why you posted this in this thread, rather than in the general cases\shell thread, but I thought I'd reply with personal experience as to why I bought then subsequently returned it.
It's just my personal opinion, but if baffles me why people buy these shells. Even at the 3mm thickness of this case, it adds 3mm to the back, 3mm to the right, 3 mm to the top, 3mm to the bottom, 3mm to the left, and then a 3 mm lip around the phone. Add those all up and it equates to double the tickness of the phone to begin with. The idea of having a thin and light phone is so it's thin and light. I suppose if I were the type who dropped my phone frequently, having a plastic shell around it might be useful, but that's just not me, which is why I went with the slip-in sleeve as I posted above. Provides dust\pocket protection, cleans the screen, but when the phone is in hand it's in it's full thin state as intended by the manufacturer.

Can I post it? What do you mean? It's the same as googleing "Samsung Infuse Desktop Dock".... but will save me from taking photos, and will save you the wait, hehe.
I love it... I've always had a dock for my iPhone, so when I heard it was coming out for Infuse I jumped on it. It's great, just slip the phone onto it and it charges\syncs, and makes it a lot easier to see texts\emails because it's angled toward me and not just sitting on my desk flat.
It's really not a huge amazing revolutionary thing, it's more of just a convenience thing to make the phone more usable for my tastes. And much of it is just cosmetic.

I guess if you're too clumsy to hold a phone in you're hand, then you need to get a shell that will double it's thickness. I guess you're right, if you're a man and insecure about... the ability to hold your phone due to it's small size, it might be in your best interest to explore enlargement options that'll make it easier to find, larger to hold, etc.

Huh? How is it a personal attack. If someone drops their phone regularly, wouldn't that classify them as clumsy?
Clumsy: awkward in movement or in handling things
How is that a personal attack? You seem overly sensitive, almost like you've got a victim complex... you are wanting to be offended. I've never dropped a phone in my life... and unless I were to drop it regularly, say once a week or so, I probably wouldn't be willing to double it's thickness to protect against the occasional drop... but that's just me.
And I could say your comment about purse and lipstick are closed-minded, offensive, but I won't.

Now, ontopic.
All of these cases you see on Amazon and Verizon and nobody has considered machining a new battery door out of aluminum or something? The cheap plastic has gotta be the #1 thing a lot of people hate about this phone, and I would definitely be willing to pay $15-20 for a nice metal back.
Does Samsung have some kind of patent that prevents this?

I suspect a metal door would interfere with the antennas, wouldn't it?
On the Nexus S, some guy had the same complaint about the plastic feeling cheap, he came up with a mod that involves spraying some rubber coating on it. Seems popular, cheap, easy, and reversible.

It would be nice if we could get something like a soft-touch black plastic battery door for better grip/nicer feel/less fingerprints. Also might be more functional than a metal door on our Charges. The antennas are on the bottom-back of the phone for some reason.
Samsung doors
I called Samsung today and they have two different doors you can buy I believe still plastic but have a nicer look and one somehow charges or keeps the battery charged longer (nvm it is only a inductive bacK). What I get for believing them lol, but anyways just thought I would share what I found.

The funny part is the shape and cutouts of the pictured cover match the Charge.
Would really love to see a more grippy battery door with kickstand for this phone. I'm looking to replace my Thunderbolt with a Charge and I know I'm going to really miss the kickstand.
The Samsung holster/case combo looks nice, but it's going to add unwanted bulk and I'm pretty sure it won't fit in the car and desk docks with the case on.

I tried Phantom skinz carbon fiber wrap to add some texture for better grip on this phone but ended up not liking it and peeled it off.
Recently went with the plastidip spray on stuff and it works much better. 2 coats of it are working great adding a good grippy feel to the back battery cover. Hope that helps.

Any chance of pictures of your finished product? Did you spray both the inside and outside of the battery door?
Only did the outside of the cover, no point in doing the inside as well.
Looks pretty good. I hope coveroo comes up with something soon...

Seemed like people were doing the inside as well to make it harder to peel off, but I don't know if it'd make a difference.
Does the phone still fit in the Car and Home dock with the back sprayed?
I don't have any official docks so I can't guarantee, but it adds very little thickness... unless the phone is already snug in the dock it will be fine.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
So has anyone bought this case yet for the Charge? I notice that they are shipping these now according to their website. There aren't really any good pictures though, just the one of the back of the case. I would like to see what it looks like on the phone and what the coverage is in the front.

Great review. I had the same case on my fascinate and the cutout around the power button made locking/unlocking the screen fairly difficult. I ended up sending it back and getting an active-x instead.
Do you have any issues accessing the power button or any of the the other ports?
If not, I may have to pick this one up. I'm running naked with no holster and it's driving me nuts!
I have had no issues. However, to be fair, I've owned a Seidio case for my past 5 phones so I may just be used to it.

Question. Do you use a second battery? How often do you take the case off? I feel like im gonna break it when i do.
Edit
Question. Do you ever have trouble with the clip between the usb port and the volume buttons? Mine comes undone in my pocket EVERY time. This causes the bottom snaps to also come undone

Negative, but I take it off pretty regularly to keep dust and dirty down (and odin new ROMs). I found our pops apart fairly simply when I start at the slot under the hdmi out.

Yes, though not every time. Maybe once or twice a day... tops. I usually use the holster when I'm at work so I usually don't have the problem. Pushing left on the top piece (from the screen) will recreate the issue. More of an annoyance than a problem (didn't even notice it for a few weeks)!

They are definitely sturdy.
That being said, I find that the holster is what sells me on the product as it's extremely useful for me when I'm at work. Dollar for dollar, if you are looking for a similar case, Best Buy sells one that's almost identical. They'll even let you put it on the phone and try it before you purchase it.

That sounds good, i guess my friend bought a cheap one. the rubberized part of the corners started to peel off, then the clips snapped off about 2 weeks after he bought it. just from your review and the youtube review i saw, it did look significantly sturdier from what he had bought but i was just kind of paranoid after seeing his.
and on the case at best buy, i did like it but i was looking for a rubberized hardshell case, that was the only real flaw i saw with that one. which brings me to my next question, is this one sort of rubberized? i initially thought it was but now i'm starting to think otherwise lol

The Rocket Fish BB case has the same feel as the Seidio. Both are plastic but the Seidio is a hair thicker and has their signature "soft touch" that, IMO, is a nicer feel.

Hello Doubleshot Family!
I recently purchased the Mugen Power 3600mah battery with battery door. I am currently still breaking in this battery but I have been very impressed with longevity of the battery (I'm on my 3rd day of use on a charge cycle right now)I personally like the extra size as well and decided to use this as my daily driver in a slip case.
That being said, I have a Trident Case in Ballistic Green that will go mostly unused now on my shelf so I've decided to give it away free.
The first person with a shipping address inside the United States who is interested and replies to this post can have this barely used case. I will cover the cost of shipping but you HAVE to have an address inside the US.
Once it's confirmed that you are the first one to respond, go ahead and PM me with your address and I will get this out to you this week.

Here in the Doubleshot forum we make our own rules up as we go.
Darn, wish I saw this earlier. Very generous of you, though

I may be willing to offer up my powermat charging system, bought the trident case so now the custom battery cover won't fit.

Wow. You were all about the trident case, much like I am.
Is the hi-cap mugen battery really that good?

Yeah, I liked the Trident case a lot but honestly, I'm not even done conditioning the Mugen battery yet and I'm getting two solid days of use and then some. (I can take the phone off the charger in morning of one day and can EASILY make it to the following night before going back on charge. I made it to a third night on this last charge before killing it but I was being a little more careful about my useage on the third day.
Plus, I really like the shape of the phone now. Typing feels more natural and so does holding it for calls. The Trident case kind of hindered typing on the top row a tiny bit and sliding it out wasn't as smooth as stock...not really a big deal though.
The only downside is no cases other than a slipcase but I used my G1 in a slipcase with extended battery for two years with no problems so I'm pretty used to it.
I'd look into the peel and stick armor suits, probably the best thing you can do as far as protection goes.
I'd figure that even if it doesn't cover the whole new back cover provided for the hi-cap battery, you should at least be able to cover the majority of it, where you would set it down and stuff to prevent scratches and some general wear. It'll definitely protect what's left of the original casing, on the screen half and anything else though.
Probably have to break-in your leather case first, though, or risk pulling it off going in and out of the case.
I just wanted to give a huge thanks to Android Fan Network (Nick) for sending me this case! :highfive: Thanks guys!
okay, so this is the first time I've ever seen a diztronic case.
i wasn't sure what to expect, honestly, i first heard about them a week ago when i saw AFN's review they posted on facebook. Well, I wanted to get my hands on a case ever since I saw that review. So, naturally I was really excited to get home from work tonight at 8pm to find this sitting in my mailbox! Even though the unit I received was pink I still wanted it on my phone, for a few minutes at least! Well, I just want to say that Diztronic really used high quality TPU when they designed this case. It really has a premium feel that a lot of TPU cases lack.
PRO's:
-fitment, honestly it is exactly like it should be. No excess space and nothing is cramped. (the IR blaster is slightly off center, but it still works perfectly)
-button covers. Yes, this is actually a PRO on this case. It is flimsy enough to allow for a tactile feedback of the button! It actually clicks. I don't know why all companies don't make this a priority.
-Lip, it has just the right amount of lip around the top edge to protect your device without going insaine
CON's: These are so minimal, I almost didn't even list them
-No grip on the sides
-camera cutout is not 'perfect' it is slightly raised and causes the phone to rock back and forth when placed on the back, it is also a large square instead of being cut the fit. (not a big deal just something to note)
-My review unit is pink and I cannot be seen with it on my phone in public.
Overall, I would give this TPU case a 5*/5* It is exactly what I look for in a case, and if it were not pink, I would keep it myself! So, if anyone would like a sparkly pink TPU case from Diztronic, I would like to offer the chance to win it, free shipping and all.
I want someone to answer the following question: (Yes, I am a math geek!)
Solve the system:
1) x+2y+2z=10
2) 2x+y+z=8
3) x+3y+2z=11
First person to give me all three numbers that x, y , and z represent wins the case with no shipping charges. Good luck!
Disregard my marked fingers. I work at starbucks and I happened to be on register during happy hour...:crying:

Let me know what you guys think, I know I love the case sans color choice!

Lol, I knew linear algebra was good for something. I don't really think I know anyone who would want this case. I already have 9 TPU cases and pink isn't one of my favorite colors. I may pass it on to someone else.

He is correct, nicely done. Do you want the case or were you just solving it? Just want to be sure.

If Anthony04x has a genuine use for it, then I will pass it on. Thanks for doing this, it's a good aside from the oh no my phone has 9gb or it's slow threads xD.

I know, I personally love the phone and want to help build a better community here. I got this case for free and really only wanted to review it. I know I love getting something I want for free, especially something that is, in my opinion, good. I'm going to give away two other cases soon, so be on the lookout for those!
I agree though, there is a lot of negative threads here, we need more positive ones for such a great phone.
Pass it on like OP said, can't be seen in public with a pink s4 now, if my girlfriend had an s4 I'd gladly take it but she has a lame 4s

Alright, so first come first serve. Who ever has a girlfriend with an S4, or would just like an awesome TPU case that happens to be pink, send me a PM or post here. (Be sure to quote me or PM me as well so I get an E-mail notification!)
Im sure there has to be one girl in our community.. lol
