[Q] Holster/extended battery questions - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to get a Note. I have found some extended batteries...
Mugen Power 4500mAh
Hyperion 5000mAh
??? 5200mAh
I love the Mugen cover that comes with it. It is textured, the camera cut out area looks good and it comes with a kick stand. However it has the lower power of the big 3. I am wondering if that cover can fit with one of the other 2 batteries. And does anyone have any opinions on which battery is the best, does name brand really matter? And my main concern, with these extended batteries has anyone found a holster/pouch with a clip that will fit the Note with an extended battery??? I want this stuff plus the mirror screen protector that I already found.

No response for almost two months - that's disappointing. I am also looking to add an extended battery, protective case, and holster. I have had no luck in finding a working combo for the AT&T version of the Note.

Just ordered one (reviews are bragging 4 days battery life 2 days on load) and It doesnt look like the case I have will fit over it. I drop my phone quite frequently and should probably get a case. Anybody with one of these have a case they recommend?

case for Note II with extended battery

Were in the same boat,its too early,maybe in a couple of weeks seidio or mugen and hopefully otterbox & case mate will start selling protective cases for extended batteries.

"3600mAh Power Bank Battery With Front Cover For Samsung Galaxy Note 2 II N7100"
not sure if its any good tho..
is you search ebay, there are back covers that come with extended batteries.. but I personally don't like them, and don't need them... horses for courses as they say.
And yet, that's what the op needed

I am ordering an extended battery soon for a side project, but I was gonna test my bumper case with it to see if they worked together. I have one of the aluminum bumpers you can get on ebay for under 20 bucks. Doesn't seem to hurt my signal at all.
search ebay for "n7100 extended battery case" and you'll find cases that have 3600 mah battery built in to them. I need to order one but great compromise I think for battery and case
www.ebay.com/itm/3600Mah-Rechargeab...50883?pt=Battery_Chargers&hash=item337dd39723
they also have ones with the flip cover that goes over the screen too.
Can you trust those eBay ones?
Had anyone found an answer for this? I have a 6600 mah battery and I bought one of the aluminum bumper cases on eBay and my 4g signal was GONE. Took it off and my signal was strong again.

these cases are complete garbage and dangerous. be very careful. there are already tons of reviews on amazon about these cases. ive read reviews for the same type of cases as well for other phones (iphone 5/galaxy s3). they take forever to charge and heat up beyond safe temperatures (can lead to injury/harm).

the only one that i've read about that does not harm your signal is the sweet armor bumper, but it's a bit pricey. check it out in the "post your case" thread if you haven't done so already.

Seidio Active Extended Case with Other Batteries

I was wondering if anyone has tried using the Seidio Active Extended case with other batteries like the extended Hyperion or Anker batteries? Does the Seidio Extended Battery Cover fit those batteries?
Thanks
After my review of Innocell and Active Extended case, I was asking the same question but never heard back from anybody either. In that review I posted all the dimensions so perhaps someone can confirm?

I've used the Active Extended with the Anker battery and it fits perfectly. That was before switching to the ZL9300 which does not fit with the Active Extended...
If you put on the back and the battery there is still room to fit thicker batteries. Don't know which ones, but if you press on it, there is some flex and spare room underneath.

Thanks for that info. Did you use the Anker battery cover or the Seidio battery cover with the Active case?

Good question! You can't get Seidio battery cover without buying Innocell (Seidio's 4500 mAh extended battery). While Active Extended is stand-alone product. I just looked up battery cover picture of Anker and it resembles battery cover of Innocell (continues line instead of like in some other brand where they have a big step in battery cover). So, I assume Anker extended with it's cover will fit Active Extended case. But let's wait for confirmation from Technorico and Chris.
The active case is nice and all, but I've been waiting for their extended convert case. I enjoyed it on my thunderbolt It's much more rugged and hiker friendly.

Case w/ extended battery 6200mAh

I just received my note 2's extended battery, and tempered glass screen protector. So, i popped it all in and stuff, but it seems i can't seem to find any nice cases for a 6200mAh battery. :/ You guys have any suggestions? I have this. I bought it because i liked the back cover like that over hyperion. And one question, does the bumper cases work for extended battery's?

The quest for a extended battery case (6000 MAH+)

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone has found a solution for fitting a decent case over these phones with extended batteries. I only found that zerolemon gives a decent case (still not as rugged as I desire, but better than no case!) but I would prefer to go with a extended battery that is not as bulky such as mpj or hyperion. Any suggestions on getting a good case or am I doomed till hyperion or mpj releases one (probably never?).

I don't think you'll find a magic case that will shrink existing matter into a smaller space. The larger capacity demands a larger battery that is not going to be smaller or form fitting to a phone not initially designed for it. It will have to be bulky by definition.
The zero lemon option at least is boxy and rectangular. The other options are lopsidedly large at the base. I personally am going to add a tpu case over my mpj battery for added grip.
i didnt even realize extended batteries were still made. isn't that too bulky?

I saw this one:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00ZAK1GAS/ref=psdcmw_3081461011_t1_B015XBS45I?th=0
and ordered a clone off eBay. Getting here tomorrow, will let you know how it goes. Not willing to use the super slippery back that comes with these extended batteries!
Do you guys think my g4 with a mugen battery and door, could I put one of those metal or hybrid bumpers on this?
Doubt a bumper would work. There is usually at least one part of the new back that alters the dimensions of the edge. The zerolemon one makes the whole thing boxy. The one I linked to above changes the whole lower 3/4th edge.
If you did your own 3d printing of a new back, and only had a pronounced lump in the center, potentially you could.
Case for extended battery
I use an otterbox on my G4 with 6200 ma battery. I leave the phone back off, cut the back out of the otterbox where the battery would hit and then just stretch the rubber over. It tucks into a groove in the front half and works great
I use Hyperion Extended battery and Hyperion TPU Case, and i do modification to add NFC feature on Hyperion
You can see on my attachment. White TPU Case too easy to get dirty

Does the Hyperion TPU case have a lip in front of the screen? Any chance you have a pic of the front with the Hyperion TPU case?

The case I got off ebay which is the same as the Hyperion one does have a lip, thus making the front very similar to many TPU cases.
