Hi folks, just wanted to let you know that the leather wallets

"Housse cuir Samsung Galaxy S2 - Capdase Classic" from Mobilefun France for € 19,49 and the "Samsung Galaxy S 2 II i9100 Verus Premium PU Soft Leather Folio Diary Case Black" from Amazon Novoskins UK for £ 18,95 do the job perfectly with the 2000 mAh battery + cover.If what they call leather is really genuine leather I don't know but I don't care that much.After using the wallets for three weeks they do the job for me and my wife and the Galaxy S2 slides in and out very smoothly. I hope some of you can use this info.

Any chance of posting a picture of the phone with case on it? I have the same case and I wish to ensure a proper fit before I order the extended battery.

Slightly off topic - what app are people using to measure the actual battery capacity?

This battery is making a difference so far and is certainly easier to grip the phone- the casemate tough only just fits-the buttons on either side are a little tricky to get in line as well as before. Has anyone else had a little difficulty with this case? Does it become easier the more i put the case on and take it off to loosen it?

An extended battery sounds like a great idea, and is something I could really use, but until I know it will fit and look good with my case-mate Tough then I am not gonna get it.

Can someone who has the extended battery and the CM-tough please upload a picture?

It also fits in the Belkin Running Armband Perfectly! I don't bother taking my SII out of the SGP Samsung Galaxy S2 Case Neo Hybrid case and it still fits (albeit a bit tight).

[Galaxy S II Accessories] jr866gooner:
Having squeezed mine on it is tight,at times when first putting the case on you can accidentally reboot the phone as its tight.you can notice the rubber inner layer doesn't sit perfect and it doesn't quite seat into the groove provided by the back hard case. You also lose a little responsiveness on the power button but it just means pressing it harder is the work a round. Im not gonna grumble. Am gonna see how i get on with it- id rather have sufficient grip as without this case it can be like holding soap sometimes plus the added protection is awesome and has been since i bought the case 4 months or so ago.

Anyone else had positive result from any modifications to the casemate tough?

SGP Samsung Galaxy S2 Case Ultra Capsule Series are a tight fit with the extended battery and the edges of the bumper WILL and do push the screen protector in so you do end up with the occasional bubbles at the side.

I think i have applied screen protectors to about 20+ S2 and no matter what screen protector i use (different brands) its still (half a mm? or so short) so its definitely not the way i am placing it, the bumper is just tight and pushes the screen protector edges whenever pressure is added from the sides.

Apart from that the case is good the only bad point is the GLITTER!!! i hate glitter or sparkle cases i rather just prefer pure colour

Battery back cover replacement

Have recently bought 2000mAh battery pack, but managed to damage the back cover. Anyone who can help med find a replacement?

[Galaxy S II Accessories] GoNz0:
big thread!

i am looking for a case to fit with the 2000ma battery and cover with the ability to remove the back should i need to pop the battery out, just got a sweet armour gs2 and have realised i cannot pop the cover without removing 4 screws and taking it out the case so its not really suitable.

wondering who has a case that allows this, prefer not to have a flip case so i can pick it up and look at the screen :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] cdzo72:
Such a case does not exist. The only thing you can buy is a bumper case which leaves the back exposed

Just got a Otterbox Commuter Case and extended battery. I've read a few posts with people saying they couldn't fit the back on as well as the Otterbox, i seem to have mine all fitted properly though, unless i'm missing something. It's seem a nice tight fit, thumbs up for the Otterbox as well, very good case, seems to be very well protected!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kdashh:
Mine fits as well but not as tight as it could down the bottom. I also cut off the top flap on mine that covers the samsung logo looks a lot better!

[Galaxy S II Accessories] GalaxyFan88:
Hey Guys, i hope you can help me out as im struggling to find any case that fulfils my needs.

Im looking for a case which is of course compatible to the 2000mah battery pack; it should be slim and kinda TPU/Silcone like material. The buttons should also be covered, but what's really important to me is that the buttons should be covered with a rubber material so you can still press them easily and have that "clicky feeling", which isn't the case with most cases out there (man, what a sentence :D )

Any recommendations would be much appreciated :)

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Dargan:
I have the Commuter and Extended battery as well. With the new back cover on, it is a bit too tight and I find the bottom of the hard case doesn't quite fit. It's only a mm or two, but it irks me.

Someone previously in this thread suggested simply removing the back cover and then putting the Commuter on top. Another user also pointed out that it leaves a slight gap between the camera and the case, and they had used some rubber to seal the difference. I've not been too bothered by it, so I've not done anything about it. Gives me a better feel than with the back case on, so I'd recommend it if you have any issues.

This is the best case I've seen to date, and after a friend of mine wasted a few of his iPhones up until he got an Otterbox case, I'm willing to swear by them, too.

Good luck and have fun :)

Otterbox Case Mod

Hello, I recently received my 2000mah battery and have been using an Otterbox case for the past 6 months. Being a poor graduate student, I didn't want to shell out more money for a new case that would fit the new battery. The otterbox does fit, but like others have said, it felt a bit tight, and the small mm that weren't flush to the hard plastic outter case was annoying, so I decided to cut out the back of the rubber piece of the Ottercase as seen below. With this cut out, the case fits perfectly. I know the mod is extreme, but I really like it. by cutting it out however, you can't use the stock battery because there will be too much movement, so make sure you are positive you want to go through with it. Pics attached below.

Excuse the manhands, my bf took these.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] αкαѕнα:
I ordered this one and it was a perfect fit.... Didn't look so nice though... i will recomend other solutions...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Franino:
I'm interested about this cover. (I delete one "w" to the link because I'm new user and I can't write link)

Does it perfectly fit the sg2? Is there a hole where there's the classic step in the back?

If you have will and time, could you take some photos of the cover and the sg2? Make only if you can!

Thank you very much for the collaboration.

I ordered today this cover:

SGP Samsung Galaxy S2 Case Ultra Capsule Series Soul Black

I hope it will fit well. As i understood from this thread and from something that i read on internet...it should be perfectly compatible.

Is it ok?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] lambstone:
Guys not sure if you know about this but there is a simple solution to this problem. Here's what I did to use any standard case with my extended battery. I bought one of those cheap replacement back covers on eBay for around 3 dollars. Afterwards I cut off the top camera section of back cover . Basically the replacement back cover just covers the entire section of the back except for the battery area. This means that the phone can then be fitted with any normal case.

TL;DR? Look at the pic. This setup allows you to use any case.

to add up, imak flip case work on 2000mah battery..:)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] saywhatt:
I bought the samsung flip cover and was pleased with it.. But i was looking for other alternatives too preferrably a case for the entire back.. So what i did was i bought an ordinary jelly case and cut a horizontal portion at the back (that inclined portion) and just stuck tape to "flatten" it :P it cost me less than $1.. I'm going easy on the budget:)

It may have a bloat at the back though but it's barely noticeable.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] aceofclubs:
I have one similar to that but I heated it with a hair drier and reshaped the "bump" to fit beautifully.

Hi :)

I'm using case called icover and it fits perfectly with external battery, but I'm not using Samsung's plastic cover that was included with the battery. Pictures in the attachment :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] riverob:
+1. This is what I use now. I bought a brand new black tough case off ebay for $20 shipped and ended up cutting the original slim battery cover just like you did instead of the 2000 cover just in case I want to go back to it. The phone fits like a glove and there are no gaps anywhere especially around the camera area. I like this set up because the hard plastic cover encases the silicon sleeve which can't scratch the phone which is unlike other cases like Otterbox that covers your device with the hard plastic first and then the soft rubber sleeve cover. To protect the face of the phone, I carry it in a Dickies 09707V1 Active Duty Pouch.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] KrazyKong:
I finally got my extended battery for my S2. Even though I knew it was not compatible, I hate now not being able to use my Case-Mate Barely There case. So I've ordered a replacement back phone cover from ebay with the hopes that once I cut out a hole for the extended battery, I might be able to fit the Barely There.

My whole experience with phone cases are that I've always used Barely There ones, and or trying out the original silicone cheap things you get off ebay. Those were horrible, and before I had discovered the excellence of the Barely There.

So does anyone know of any Barely There copies/clones or cases that are similar in appearance and use? I"m not a fan of cases covering buttons, so would like cutouts if possible. That being said, what are some of the more popular name brand or reputable models of cases people are using with their S2 Extendeds?

I have to say I think most if not all case companies dropped the ball when it come to not having proper cases for the Extendeds.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] johneltonsbrain:
I found a very good solution for the Case-Mate Barely There (You find it on Amazon)

The case fits if you dont put on the battery cover. The problem is that there is space between the camera and the case so that you can see the sim card and dust can easily get in your phone. the solution: You take the normal/original battery cover and cut out the camera hole with a 1 cm frame and put it between your phone and the case.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Glebaka:
lol ive just took sticky note and placed it near camera to cover internals of the phone)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] KrazyKong:
Once my replacement battery cover arrives, I'm going to have a go at cutting out the area where the extended battery sits out further than the standard battery. Someone posted a pic a few pages back of them doing the same.

I ended up ordering a few cases from ebay in my search for a case I was happy with.

The first one is the Momax iCase Pro Case. This does fit over the extended battery cover and feels snug, and not too tight either. Despite this, I'm not sure I will be making this my main case however. I don't like how the case covers the power and volume buttons. You have to press quite hard to get the phone to poweron/off and also be making sure you are pressing in the exact position. There isn't any feedback of feeling the button, so you just have to press hard on the case area where the "button" is under.

The next one was a generic leather pouch thing from ebay. It fit quite nicely, and I think looked not too bad either. As for the rubber skin case that came with the leather pouch, it maybe was one of the worst cases I've ever felt. Horrible, rubbery, floppy and out in the trash it went.

The next case was a soft pouch made out of wetsuit material. This fit perfectly. Not too tight, just the right about of snugness.

The final case I got was one called a Mercury tpu case from eBay. I was very impressed with this case. It had cutouts for the buttons, was flexible enough without being like the jello silicone cases. The one I got was in matte black so it looked very similar to the Barely There as well. Oddly there is a cutout for the top right corner of the phone which you can see better in this pic here.

.

There doesn't seem to be any functional need for this cutout other than to maybe be a slightly edgy design I guess. But it opens leaves that corner of the phone pretty much exposed.

So I'm still searching for my new case. Once I get my replacement battery cover, I will have a go and cutting out a hole for the extended battery. Hopefully my Barely There will fit nicely again. Once I get something I like, the next step is to find an outer case/bag/pouch for the S2 that fits over the skin case. I've had a look at some Golla pouches and they are pretty nice. Anyway that will be another post at a later date.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Obagleyfreer:
I'm using the momax icase pro and it's awesome! You don't have to press hard on the buttons at all and you can definitely feel it being pressed. I think you just have to use it for a few weeks to loosen it up a bit :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] M@rtijn!:
Just a quick question. As I understand it right you can just apply any case if you remove the back plate and don't use it? So the back is open in the case? Why don't I see people doing that a lot and why shouldn't you do it? If you want a case to fit that's the most effective solution right?

I know this has been asked a couple of times but it hasn't been answered yet and it's really getting in my head.

Not a case, just the back cover.

Mine is broken and I can't seem to find a cover that's specifically for the extended battery. Plus the poor descriptions on eBay aren't helping.

Any help would be much appreciated.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] fasst:
I'm using the Pleomax soft tpu case with 2000mah pack. It's tight but it fits. I removed the thin lining inside the case. I also drilled slightly bigger holes for the microphones. Remove the phone before you do this ;)

I also have the SGP Neo Hybrid and the SGP Linear case. In my view the Pleomax case is far better quality and it fits like a glove compared to the others. It just looks and feels mutch better in my hand, like one compact unit. And the protection is mutch better. The case is actually a bit soft, not like the hard plastic on the Linear.

When you but the phone in the case I have experienced that the best way is to slide the bottom in first.

It can be a bit tricky to get the phone out of the case. Just start at one corner at the top. Be carefull not to bend the phone.

I'm using the SGP Ultra Optics protector and after trying a few cases and protectors this is the best combination I've found.
