Can I use the same back that originally came with the i515 Samsung galaxy nexus or will I have to buy a different back for the phone m

yes you can use the same back. Its the same exact size as the stock battery.

You will need a new back cover for your phone. Then use this as a protective case. If you buy the battery online, usually the new back cover is a suggested item to be purchased.

I don't think it will fit. You should get the extended battery that comes with the new back for the extended battery.

That's the one I bought for my Galaxy Nexus, which is about the same age as yours, and it worked just fine.

No problem. Just keep in mine that its for the Galaxy Nexus Sprint version. Happy to help!

I have the 2013 Nexus and it didn't fit together, but I never use them hooked together. If you are used to a small keyboard it works fine. I like it.

The back I received fits great. I've been using it for a few months now and no trouble at all with the fit of the back on my Incredible 2.

Your original Verizon Galaxy Nexus back cover will actually just manage to fit, with a little bulging, and that works just fine. Or there is an extended battery cover for Verizon sold elsewhere on Amazon.

It's really easy. You can keep your original backing on it that you bought the phone with, or any other, attach it and easily remove it.

You do get what is pictured, but I woudn't call it a "case". That implies an extra something that protects the phone. What you get is a backing to the phone that replaces the original backing already on your phone. This battery is bigger than the original, so the original back won't fit with the new battery installed. As mentioned, the new backing fits perfectly with the new battery.

NopeIt an exact fit snaps in placeAnd the back of the keyboard looks exactly like the back of the nexus 7 looks pretty good and original

As in a back cover of the nexus I think you should be good, as long as the battery of the phone is not damaged, because once you get the case all you have to do is insert the phone in to like a dock type of thing.

Yes. But it takes time dismantling, I have never done this before. Put it back together and didn't fit probably. Took phone to local repair shop to see if they could do anything. Guy says I might a gotten a wrong LCD screen. You could barely see it didn't line up right. I broke down and just bought another Nexus 5 from play store

If you are on Verizon: Yes, it will fit/work (I've bought 3 through the years), but you need the extended battery cover like the one that comes in this bundle: Samsung ETC-I515BBGSTA Verizon Galaxy Nexus Extended Battery Bundle - Retail Packaging - BlackIf you are on ATT/TMobile: Will not work (batteries are different dimensions)If you are on Sprint: I cannot confirm/deny fitment.

The model I got is probably ok to use with a thin additional silicone case but will take effort to install. Charging port (mini USB ) will be really difficult to access. The nexus 7 fits loosely a has a wrap around flap which is held by Velcro. I sincerely suggest contacting the district it or and questioning them about whether the adapter is solid or just cut out vinyl.

Is your phone is Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus Samsung I515? If yes, it is expected to be compatible.
