Replacement battery back cover for the Droid Turbo... Ordered it from aliexpress for 18$, being really skeptic about its credibility i was scared but impressed with their awesome service... Had ordered two cases off ebay and one month LATER still not here and both were sent using the same free shipping service from China!
I love the quality of it... its just brilliant.... Beware that some shippers are getting greedy and shipping it without the LED flash and charging extra for it but mine sent me the case along with the dual LED flash! I am just waiting for a front glass replacement to pop up so that i can make my Droid Turbo Brand New once again!!!
It was a horror story when it fell from my pocket and i rode over it on my two wheeler(Bike)! As i have imported the phone no replacement!!!
Anyways if u guys need any more pics or any info let me know!

Added links to the OP!
And i had bought it from aliexpress for 18$ i am not sure if it was cuz of a mistake in pricing or what but soon after my purchase the price was 28$! I was just lucky i guess....
Wow. That does look nice. How does it compare to the original ballistic? The exact same feel or any differences? Also, how easy was it to replace?
Now I just need someone to verify that the Metalized Back will fit the 64GB and that there is't some memory module or something that makes it need the nylon back....

Never used the Ballistic Nylon b4 so cant commenr on that... But the back seems of really high quality... And has original Motorola Logo with serial numbers n stuff so i am pretty confident its an OEM product... So guess they should feel the same!
Does anyone know if these backs will work for the Moto Maxx (the non Verizon version)?

Was also curious about this. Just saw this update today: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/general/red-64-gig-turbo-t2994543
TL;DR, it fits.
I want to try this but I'm concerned that I'll snap the frame.
Installation was painless. Used a guitar pick. No problems with the adhesive. Fits perfect.
i would KILL for a RED nylon one.

From some of the stuff I read is that there are some slight measurement differences between the devices. BN, Maxx, and the 32gb turbo.
So you all think it's worth the $25 to try this out then, right?
Still nervous about popping the back off a perfectly good phone, but man I want the normal black back instead of this nylon one.

I think that's just because the actual backs are different, but not anything else on the phone.

This black battery case only $15.9. Really cheap.
There are the nylon ones too. Very beautiful.

I have swapped Metal Black with BN Black and Red, so all fit each other. Has any one found the covers without logos?
Has anyone seen the new limited edition covers?

Red, white and green are all available on ebay. I have been thinking about ordering a red one. What I would really like is for someone to make a replacement cover out of metal (assuming it would not kill the reception.)
+1 for a metal cover. Real carbon fiber would be the shiz! Then I would buy one for sure

Like I said, when you call with the part number, they can give you a price.
Well The Package Said $24.99
But I Guess It Was On Sale? $19.99
And Then I Had A Work Discount $14.99
I just picked mine up today from my local corporate store, they had the red and white doors in stock. You just half to ask for them as they are not on the sales floor. It was on sale for 19.99 for me as well. I posted a couple pictures for anyone who wants a good look at it.
I'll see mine for $10, was used once with a case lol, I use a case so I find no use for it anymore, I as well paid around $20 and have receit I believe it was direct order from verizon.
I just ordered the red and white... You may have to call customer service a couple times to get someone who can actually find it in the system...
It looks good, I just would like to have a full color all the way around instead of half and half. But to each their own.
I buy it for

I wasn't able to find this one on the vz site...do you have a picture of it?
I know VZ has a black/red SPECK one and the regular high gloss red one and also a black one (that's the one I have), but those are all cases and not battery covers.
Thanks.
EDIT: I thought it was a red/white combo not the 2 separate...sorry. lol.
loose doors?
Does anyone who has these back doors(I have a while one) use them with the stock battery or with an upgraded 1500mah battery? I ask my original has always creaks and cracks when held or pushed in the wrong spot and it's happened on all refurbs that I've had for various reasons, and these doors weight just hair lighter than the OEM black door and it makes mine even worse, it fixes it with some cardboard back there, but does anyone else have any insight or experience with this issue?
I can't vouch for the battery covers I had a TP1 and TP2 by htc aswell as a HTC Touch back in the day, but the tp1 did the creaking noise after the case started getting really worn, but it seems since the tp2 days it's happened to every htc phone I have had my hands on... I usually just stick a couple layers of padding in there like you did with the cardboard but I usually used electrical tape and applied multiple layers where necessary to the actual battery cover.

I'm thinking of buying this case for its reasonable price (11.99$ + screen protector) and looks but first,
has anyone here tried it? any thoughts? I just wanna know how much bulk will it add to the phone and how good it is with preventing dust going inside.
btw here's the eBay link to the case:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Momax-iCase-Pro...Accessories&hash=item1e625a3fde#ht_6048wt_905
I would say it looks like a very interesting case. I really like the White edged case might be ordering this just to see if its any good being it is only 12 dollars. Thanks for pointing this out to us.
EDIT:: I just ordered the white edge + smoke backed case! Give reviews soon as it arrives, but coming from china it could be atleast a week or two.
I already bought that and the full black one from the same seller yesterday. Can't wait..
I hope it fits perfectly. For now I just use the white capdase case (a bit tight for the i9023)..
the capdase one seems pretty cool as I like cases that doesn't add any bulk.. Can you tell me how is it? easy to press buttons? ext..
as for the Momax case, It seems bulky.. I'll wait for some feedback for now
I purchased one from Momax's website last Thursday and got in from Hong Kong (to Australia) in 4 business days.
The case is a good fit for the I9023, feels really nice and the buttons work properly.
Best thing is their is heaps of space for the charger/usb cable and headphone!

I bought the white capdase (to mach my white battery door). Nice case, but a bit tight, especially in the on/off button, I have to loosen a bit to the right, so I can press the button for on/off, if not the button will be a bit presses, and if I push it, it ask for the shutdown menu. But now is ok. ---> Sorry for my english

I just got the momax Ipro case today from the ebay seller for my i9023.
I bought 2 momax case(smokey back and all black).
I love it, it is the best than the other 2 case I already had (capdase & generic plastic case).
For me, I think its slim enough, and easy to slide in your pants, because the back cover is hard plastik and the side is soft plastic/rubber.
O yeah... all is included with anti glare screen protector.
so.. how much buld does it add..?
do you think it add more than the capdase?
by the way which one provide more protection?
momax capdase or SGP ultra silke???
dont know what to get...
my review of the momax icase pro:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1106147
quite a few pictures!
i'm searching on ebay but still can't decide about case? is anybody use case with p970?
this looks very good but a bit bulky and expensive: http://www.ebay.com/itm/120736772569?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
i don't like it much but let's link for selection: http://www.ebay.com/itm/LG-OPTIMUS-..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item19c50c7ff4
(also those two above has a hole at upper right corner. it's like tv antenna for korea or something.)
this one is cheap and slim but don't look like that attractive: http://www.ebay.com/itm/280704959401?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
any other suggestion?
first one have a better look,i like it
ordered the case at the last link. i will review ~3 weeks later
I ordered a similar case from seller 'moonstore_au" more than a month ago.
They are going to either send me out a replacement or refund my money if it doesn't arrive this week.
With that said, be careful of cheap ones!

yes, this is the downside of free, un-tracked shipping. all of my dealextreme.com orders arrived with no problem. i hope this ebay seller won't dissapoint me.
btw, there is no p970 cases at dealextrme. it's really disappointing.
I bought two here, and its perfect:
http://www.focalprice.com/search.html?keyword=p970
I bought a standard black silicon case for my device and it picks up a lot of lint. Avoid them if possible.
Just bought: http://api.viglink.com/api/click?fo....m1438.l2649&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13153408294445 I'll let you know how it is ASAP...
my order has arrived. perfect fit. you can press hard buttons easily. don't collect dust. white one is looking really good. looks better than black case.
just one thing bothers me. sharp edges at back side are show some kind of trace at white transparent area.. it's not a permanent thing. it's not even a trace actually. just doens't look good. but not a big problem.

it seems very thin and it is hard rubber!
have you guys tried looking around gmarket korea? it's like korean ebay, and because lg is a korean brand you can actually find quite a few varieties of optimus black accessories there. english.gmarket.co.kr. try searching "optimus black" or "KU5900".
I got mine for about USD10, and shipping to Singapore (where I live) was another 10USD (because I didn't buy anything else.. basically gmarket kr allows you to shop from all the korean shops, then consolidates the orders and sends it to you by EMS).
Unfortunately I can't post links and pictures yet. well if interested can just pm me.
If anyone in the US is looking for TPU cases for the LG Marquee / Optimus Black we have high gloss black and high gloss translucent smoke in stock. They include screen protectors as well. I'd be willing to send some free review samples to XDA members as usual send me a PM

but i have a doubt, because the upper left corner is shaped? I have no buttons on that side of the phone
someone who bought it can help me, they seem good quality, is it really so? any advice is welcome
I bought this one & I am loving it.

Warning: the wired review says the cover doesn't fold back all the way.
EDIT: Nevermind, I guess you can. Quality Wired journalism at its best.
Also, I'm curious about the front camera cutout, can someone who gets it see if they can take a selfie with the cover closed?
Anyone know if the one Verizon has is unmolested or did Verizon find a way to put their logo on it?
Flip Case cover blocking camera?
Exactly how to you take a pic with this case on?
Looks like the cover will be in the way and from the images of the case, the volume buttons are on the hinge side.
Am I missing something? Just looks like a PIA to take a pic with that case.

the Verizon logo is on the back of the phone. Only logo on the front of the device is the HTC logo which i really like. I'm debating about reviewing the IMEI sticker on the back of the device.

That sticker was the first thing to go on my DNA and on the M8. Can't tell about the verizon logo and 4g LTE on the back. They could be screen print and they could be etched. They don't look out of place like the IMEI sticker though.
pretty sure that he is asking about whether the CASE has a verizon crap printed on it. not the actual phone
looks like no
Verizon had the case available for $40 when I picked up the phone yesterday in Clearwater, FL. But I went with the Otterbox Commuter instead since the dot case does not protect the right side of the phone.

i'd say wait for the knock offs. The way it activates is when the lil HTC logo touches the screen...only a matter of time before case makers reverse engineer it.
EDIT: I think its a great case, but $40-50 for it is just insane! Its plastic for god's sake!
It still says out of stock for me.
I'm mildly interested, but I bought a premium-feeling phone for a reason, so I'd like to avoid putting a case on it if possible.
Does anyone know where I can buy a dot view case in the UK? My phone is arriving today so wanted to go out and buy it.
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...

Thanks, I know that they are not officials, probably all you can find in ebay or china sites are just copy but it's ok for me.
If someone have a link to some items surely black I would appreciate

I just ordered this one the other day http://m.ebay.com/itm/251723199982?_mwBanner=1. Selecting the black one will be the one that's used on the Moto X Pro. Which is almost the same exact phone, just not the Nexus version.

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.

I just got it in the mail today. Applied it. It fit excellent. It has a rubbery, soft touch feel. Way easier to grip than the factory one. I'm a fan. I think I might order a few more just to have them.

They were taken with an ancient Galaxy S3. Sorry about the potato-like quality.

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.

@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. ?

Does NFC work with the pro X battery cover?

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.
