If the original back cover cannot be used with your battery, it is the same size as the original? I have a protective case I'd like to continue using

No, I bought this and it makes the phone twice as thick and you can't keep any cases on it.

No it comes with a Case because standard Evo 3D cases will not fit with this big buldgy battery & so if you also have the Original Docking Bay that has a micro USB port & HDMI Port u will not be able too use this Battery with that docking bay either like I had which was for watching Pandora Radio or YouTube on my TV in docking mode or just lay & charge in dock will not work , I'd Recommend The Anker 1900Ma battery that comes standard size so you can use your case & dock station & usually has a deal pack of 2 Anker batteries With a universal Charger too keep one on charge at all time & I'd Recommend unlocking Bootloader , Root & put a custom recovery on & install Butterz ROM No it comes with a Case because standard Evo 3D cases will not fit with this big buldgy battery & so if you also have the Original Docking Bay that has a micro USB port & HDMI Port u will not be able too use this Battery with that docking bay either like I had which was for watching Pandora Radio or YouTube on my TV in docking mode or just lay & charge in dock will not work , I'd Recommend The Anker 1900Ma battery that comes standard size so you can use your case & dock station & usually has a deal pack of 2 Anker batteries With a universal Charger too keep one on charge at all time &... » Read More No it comes with a Case because standard Evo 3D cases will not fit with this big buldgy battery & so if you also have the Original Docking Bay that has a micro USB port & HDMI Port u will not be able too use this Battery with that docking bay either like I had which was for watching Pandora Radio or YouTube on my TV in docking mode or just lay & charge in dock will not work , I'd Recommend The Anker 1900Ma battery that comes standard size so you can use your case & dock station & usually has a deal pack of 2 Anker batteries With a universal Charger too keep one on charge at all time & I'd Recommend unlocking Bootloader , Root & put a custom recovery on & install Butterz ROM « Show Less

No. It is not. That's why they send you a new back cover. My phone was the purple model, but now it's black and purple. This battery was just awful, but it was cheap so I wasn't out much. I went to Batteries Plus and got another battery, but their back was terrible and didn't work well, so I'm using the back from this which works great. You will not be able to use the original back. It makes the phone larger, but I actually like it better.

When you bought the 3500 mAh Battery, you should have received a back cover. You have to remove original back cover and use the one that came with the battery.

Yes, I purchased without knowing it was larger than original. All fit fine. Battery just protrudes a bit.

Your gel case will not fit due to the extended battery cover. Yes you can use your existing battery charger. I wish they made a gel or protector case that would fit with the extended battery cover, but for now, no one does.

The battery and cover is a tight fit... you have to ensure the cover secure around the entire edge of the case. I found after removing and replacing the cover several times the cover doesn't remain tight and requires additional and specific pressure around the entire edge of the case to close it tightly and completely.

No. The battery and cover are almost the same size externally as the otterbox case.

I got this battery for my daughter phone. It's a little bigger than the original battery and you won't be able to put a case on your phone. She hasn't had a problem with it so far

The battery will fit with the original back to the phone. It is not fatter, it's the same size as the original battery.

No, purchase of the battery should also include the compatible cover. The Extended Battery is quite thick when compared to the original. Another thing you should note is that the antenna for the phone seems to connect through the back cover so you want to be sure what you get makes good contact with the leads. Check out your original cover and you will see what I am talking about.

Yes you can. The battery is a little larger so you can't use the original back cover. The battery comes with two back cover.

I attempted to find a back cover as well, but I couldn't find one. I really wanted to keep using my otterbox case so I ended up cutting a hole in my original back cover and the rubber portion of my case. By doing so I was able to fit the hard shell (of my otterbox case) back on and that holds the battery in place and I now have the protection of my original case.

yes, the battery and the back case cover fits perfectly. Be careful not to drop it because the case breaks easily and it's hard to find a phone case to fit over the extended life battery and back

The original back cover does fit and very tightly. I'm comfortable with it because the cover doesn't come off. Its fits well enough to put a case on your phone like otterbox, etc. The original back cover fits snug with a tiny tiny bulge.

No the battery is twice as thick compared to stock battery therefore you need to use a custom back case which comes along with the battery. Basically the stock case doesn't fit.

Yes it fits just like the original battery only its taller.The cover makes it a good fit.

You do remove the original back cover and put the battery cover on. I ordered from one company (the same thing, I thought?) and I couldn't get it on. Returned it. Ordered from another company and it works GREAT! I love the longer use time.

Good question,looks like the same style case but ive asked this as well,but no it will not fit the battery thats why they supply the case with the extended battery,shame really the razor armor case looks better in my opinion,hope this helps you out

I didn't know what you meant till I looked up the battery. No, it barely takes mine which has the manufacturer's baterry with the back hard case protector. I doubt it will take that big of a battery.
