Just bought a Droid X with the Extended battery.  However, can't find any cases or shells for it.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.  Mark

If you are talking about the Motorola branded battery which is just 1mm thicker: The Rockerfish case from Bestbuy fits with extended battery.  Also any Silicon cases will also fit.

 

If you have the huge Seidio battery I dont think there are many cases that will work with it.

Thanks for the reply.  Purchased battery from Verizon, don't know it's width.  I'll look into the model you specified though.  Mark

If you got it from VZW, it will only extend the battery door about 1mm.  Most cases should still fit.  Some stores will let you test fit them.

I to bought the extended battery from a vz store and got the standaed droid holster, pretty tight fit at first but as you use it it does loosen a little bit.  Be assured it will not fall out of the holster.  Problem withthe holster is if you then go and buy the windshield holder so you can use the droid like any other gps it WII NOT fit as the power connector will not line up.  You actually  have to take off the holster and slide in the adapter  but who wants to be chagning things all the time.  I am hopeing motorola will figure out they have a fitment issue and comes out with the correct holster and windhield mount for a droid x with their extended battery installed.  Who ever thought a sill mm meant so much???

You gotta be really careful though.  My friend has a leather bound case identical to mine.  They got it to fit over the extended battery, but the fit was so tight it broke off a holding tab on the case when they tried to remove the case.
