I have HTC diamond with extended 1340 mah battery and I can not find a holster which will fit in with extended battery on. Any ideas? I need clip on holster which I can clip on belt, like this one.

There is no case there, just cover.

I'll also be interested in a case which is big enough for a diamond with extended battery, please inform us.

As for Trizo, you need to know the difference between a case and a back cover...:D

I purchased a leather clip on case from ebay which was designed to fit the standard diamond (I think - there is a little space top and bottom so it could just be a standard clip on case) but the diamond with the official extended battery also fits in it quite nicely. A little snug but works well enough for me.

Thanks.

I found out that GSM diamond with extended battery is 1 mm higher and 0.5 less thick then CDMA diamond in US. So I got CDMA plastic holster and shaving off 1 mm to make it fit Diamond with extended battery right now. For any stretchable material (silicone or leather) it'll probably will just fine without any modifications.

That looks very good but I've got one of those for my previous device (Kaiser), they fit very comfortabley but the case keeps on opening after using it for a few months and you drop the phone on the floor as the clip becomes loose. :rolleyes:

yes but i found the answer to that as i had this problem and i solved it all you do is bend the metal clip farward this will tighten the clip very solidly and works wonders i am really happy with this case and is very secure and sturdy i highly recomend itt to anyone with the official extended htc battrey feel free to ask more questions only here to help.

I just bought a black Roots Tek Sock for my Diamond with the official HTC extended battery. Although I still have to take the naked Diamond out to use it, it still maintains its beautiful look. In fact it looks nicer with the new battery, from the back.

My old silicone case does fit, but the front left and right sides are not straight anymore, so it looks lame.

Thanks, nice find! I bought a CDMA silicone skin and it only needs some shape up, as the holes for the screen, the camera and for the navigation pad aren't fitting exactly. But now everything's fine. :)

But why is the CDMA skin so expensive compared to the 2$ skins at DealExtreme?!?:confused:

Here's one for a few $,

Of course you would need to punch a hole for the front camera.

I found this one, not sure if it is an actual back cover or one that goes over it.

Anyway if you've got a son it probably means that you are over 16, so I don't know about the style!

Sorry I thought you were looking for the American one, the original covers are going for about €20, and there is no sign of a cover only for the BP E270 so I suppose you are better off getting the battery and cover again for €30. At least you will have a spare.
