I have a Droid Incredible Pre-release battery door and want to sell it. I've only used it once and got a few months after the release. This is extremely rare and I rather not sell it but i need the cash. It has the the cool android dude on it and says HTC Incredible. It also comes with the inner cover that you can replace to get red accented power and volume buttons.It is in great condition. Price is negotiable. I haven't seen anyone else ever sell one of these so I know its extremely rare and I don't have another one. If anyone may like to buy this please PM me with an offer. I have had this in my display case above my desk but I need to sell it now. I remember some people on the XDA wanted it so Im posting it here. XD
This auction has been moved to ebay:

That, sir, looks amazing.

I think its really cool. It was the original battery door to the Incredible, but before it was released they changed it to the the cheaper black rubber door.
$20. LMK. pay pal ready.
Will help pay for something better than a web cam.
I'll offer $30 USD.
very sexy, not good for me since i use a case but i have a question,
what is the process of replacing the inner cover?

To Replace the inner cover, you have to unscrew the screws and carefully pry off the undercover. This will void your warranty but it will also allow you to have red accented buttons XD.
Id totally enter this auction if I didn't feel like I've already spent a fortune in accessories and batteries and whatnot.
Tis a damn sexy case though, that's for certain. Dunno if id be willing to void my warranty to get the red accents, however.

I've seen this somewhere before. But I don't think it works on the actually live unit, maybe on a dummy.
I want one of those but 110.00? What do they usually go for?

Point is they usually don't go for anything, because nobody sells them.
I researched and found out that this battery door was on some dummy units. It's not actually a "pre-release" door.
I even found them on eBay for $23.

^Nice. I wish I would have seen that a couple of weeks ago before I bought my red one from Verizon.

youre kinda right but these are dummy phones you found on ebay, means the back door is glued/screwed on and not interchangeable...so even if it's not a prerelease door at least it will fit on someones phone
edit: I mean the OP's backdoor will fit...the dummy phone backs WILL NOT fit our phones, I hope ppl didnt think I meant the other way around

After looking at this Ebay page more closely, I found that the battery covers that they have and I have are different. The speaker hole on mine isn't even that shape. If you compare my photos to theirs, you will see how theirs is fake. The original prerelease battery covers have the main speaker hole the way mine does.
yeah they're not the same as the one you have..the ones you have were sold on a site a couple months back but sold out
Isn't it backwards? The camera and LED ports are on the right????

Hey guys, anyone know if, for the Galaxy Note 2, a metal back cover instead of the original plastic one is available to purchase from anywhere?
I want to my note 2 to have a metal back and a case is just not cutting it due to the added bulkiness, it would be much easier if instead of the detachable plastic cover, a metal cover is attached instead.
Now i know that the original plastic cover has an NFC antenna within it so im not sure if this is why im unable to find one online.
Any ideas?
The phone has been out for 3 days....give it some time.
Thanks for the reply, very useful
Keep checking ebay. I'm sure some Chinese ones will be popping up here real soon.

Wouldn't it cause interference problems? I'm no expert here...so probably wrong; but I assume samsung uses crap plastic because it would block the signals, or at least cause problems.
It would indeed. Unless they embedded some antennae into it and had a way to connect it to the main device antennae (all of them), it'll just reduce signal strength.
A metal back cover would stop NFC working and probably interfere with general signal too.
A rubber or textured back would be a nice option

I like the feel of some of the HTC phones.Where they use a metal back with some sort of rubberised coating. Would be nice to have a back cover with that kind of texture, even if made of plastic

I'd definitely like that. I'd also like to see a manufacturer (whether Samsung or 3rd party) come out with a replacement cover that also has an integrated kickstand.
I think others have used Plasti-Dip to coat battery covers in order to give a more 'rubberized' feel. I know I'm going to be looking at something like that when I can finally get one out of Verizon.

Alot of people are replying that a different case would intefer with th NFC.
As stated originally, I am aware of this, so when I ask of any alternatives, I ask with the NFC issue dealt with.
IMO, A plastic back is not worthy of my note 2 :good:

ANY metal case WILL kill your signal UNLESS it's also designed to function as an antenna; which isn't going to happen. So you can either get used to the plastic back, deal with losing some functionality, or get a different phone.

I'm guessing you didn't read what I wrote despite you quoting it lol. If you read, I asked, with the nfc issue sorted. So in simpler words for you, a case supporting nfc.
Instead you just told me something I already know..
If you don't know of any, then next time you don't need to reply, as rather than answering my question all you just did is try to sound knowledgeable. Well done.
Anyway, asking questions on xda seems to get a lot of hate. Just read 2 other threads and it was filled with blunt, unhelpful replies.

I think he was referring more to the fact that you will lose your GSM radio signal with a metal back cover, he was not referring to the NFC.
Personally I think the plastic/polycarbonate material they use for the note 2 is of high quality and keeps the phone light yet strong and keeps radio performance at it's best...
Perhaps the note 2 isn't for you if you feel the quality is that bad?
If he was referring to the gsm, then my bad.
The note 2 is perfect, I had the Dell streak before the note series etc as I'm in love 5" phabs,
I just wondered if alternatives were available, the current back looks good but I'm just a fan of metal covers.
So don't get it wrong as I'm not slating the current back.
So anyway, if it's not available then never mind, curiosity was just asking.
There is another thread on here in this section which mentions some soon to be released alternative back covers for the GN2. They look metallic but not sure if they are actually metal... there is a lovelly carbon fiber effect one too
Great, just found it,
I think I'll stick with the original for now as original is always best looking, but I hope after a while a decent amount of accessories get produced as these days if it's not Iphone it gets slept on.
Where is the best place to buy a replacement rear housing and possibly back cover that is compatible with the vzw LTE note 2 (sch-i605)? I have some cosmetic damage that I am trying to fix but I am concerned about compatibility, since there are antennas and apparently clip fittings involved.
I have the dark grey version, but all the housings I find for sch-i605 are white. If I get the white housing and a grey back cover, is the outside banding going to look different from my current one?
Thanks in advance.

Yeah, it is a whole different color chrome on the outside, which is the main thing i would like to replace. I dont know why there are no Verizon Gray Note 2 housings out there at all. I run into the international N7100 everywhere i got though. Our LTE bands in our are different than the rest so thats why its important to get the correct one. Any help would be absolutely amazing!

18 Bucks. Free shipping. Could possibly take up to 3 weeks for delivery, though.
Edit: Correction! It's at my local sort facility and should be delivered to my po box tomorrow. That would make 9 days total time from ordering to receiving.

Was at the post office waiting for me, as per the tracking info. Came packaged new and very well packed. Bubble wrap, styrofoam and a bubble mailer envelope. All surface protecting tapes intact and no scratches. Very satisfied with the delivery time and packaging. $18 bucks, shipped.
I ordered the exact same one. Came in about 12 days. Very happy with it . Great quality.

hi guys, I cant understand if real black back cover really exists. Some vendors sells parts where they say the item is black, however you cant tell from photos if the color is real black or normal midnight blue.
Do they really exists? Or we have to manage with dbrand skins or similar to have a black n6?
Thanks for the info

There is no original black battery cover, but they do exist, just not official ones. You can buy them from ebay and so on.
By my experience some of these covers are nearly identical to original ones, but depends on your luck sometimes...

Yes but the black one moto x pro doesn't have the nexus logo , only motorola
Moto X Pro battery cover looks grippy with soft touch material applied on top of plastic. It would work better than stock nexus 6 battery cover. I would ditch nexus logo on the back for a better grip.

Very nice indeed, did the battery door come with its own adhesive ?
@Semseddin Yup. It has this super sticky adhesive already applied. The hardest part is getting the old one off. You have to be really careful. There's some heat shield or something that separates the battery and the back cover. Once I started removal, I used a manicure tool I had with a rounded edge to separate the back cover from it. Here's a good video showing the removal and replacement.
https://youtu.be/Yk1CGk0TZAw
@JR442,
I can take it out using my bare fingernails, being a cell techician for quite a while.. I ordered 3 pieces of black battery doors. 1 for myself and 2 for my customers. I watched a nice moto x pro review on youtube by rozedked. Provides detailed look of the black battery door. I think more nexus6 owners will realize the need of this battery door as the stock plastic battery door is so fingerprint magnet and slippery and tends to get scratched easily. None of these would be an issue with the black soft touch moto x pro back cover.

Did you ever get any more of those? I went to order some more and they're sold out. I did find a place that sells the adhesive backing for them so I could reuse the one I have easily. I just did a frame swap because my blue frame had a couple nicks, plus I was tired of looking at it. Went with the frame from the white version this time.

Thank you! The one I got came with adhesive too. But it gets a little messed up if you have to remove it. That's where I was getting at when I said I found replacement double sided adhesive. Then you can peel off the old, heat up the new. Slap it on and reuse the same battery cover as often as you need to. Still... I'd love to be able to purchase some more if your seller has any left. There were two sellers on eBay I've seen and both of them are out of stock now. ?

I've never actually tried it, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. It's made of the same material as the stock one. Just a soft touch rubber coating. I'd think the only thing that would hinder NFC would be something metal.
So like title said, post links / names of cases you can find online, for now there is only two options avaiable:

The second one is not mod friendly. I've it and it doesn't fit car dock or back style mods.

I'll vouch for the Verizon bumper case. So far all the mods I have fit with this on. I know its not a full case, but it protects the siding and gives you the ability to hot swap mods all day
I have the famous YouTube review video showing how terrible the Incipio bumper is. It doesn't even work with their own battery pack. Just poor engineering and design.
Is there any more options beside this two? Because verizon is not available to Europe?
found this one, but seems ... meh..

I backed the Edge Shield Bumper, at Indiegogo. But it will take some more time to deliver because Lenovo/Motorola asked for a legal agreement, this month. So I have to wait to see it's quality.

Verizon one just broke on me. Lasted about 5 months. I want another one because it is the only one that works. Any idea where I can buy? I would love the edge shield when it comes.
Just received a Sparin TPU case for the MZP from Amazon today. The best part is that it fits OVER the style shell and all. Yeah, it's a tight squeeze and the top mic hole is a little bit off and it is a bit of a pain to remove, but it works. Don't know how long his case will hold up without cracking or yellowing, but so far I'm impressed. Buttons are able to be clicked and power cord inserted. Got a 2 pack for less than $10 shipped.
Oh, and no hole for the pins either.
