Like the title states, I soon will get 32GB+3G version of it, thinking to buy the dock when it comes out.
I now have Galaxy Nexus, long story short, I liked the dock that was in the first time Google showed it, after that there was bug in firmware, I could not find it for cheap and have no money, I waited and waited, and finally after some month of waiting, I put my hands on some accessories for it, that was the desktop multimedia dock, genuine MHL & OTG Samsung adapters, an extended battery (in retail pack btw), and the last but not least was the SGP Crumena case in black, my problem was that I needed a case but one I can get the device in and out quickly, neprene pouches are crap and looks cheap, so the leather pouch was a perfect solution with addition with the strap on the back and magnet is just the best.
I sent them a question if it possible to make me a custom case, till they answer, is there any other leather case out there that have a strap and magnet the some of you use and/or can recommend me? as you understand I will use the dock, so again I back for the same solution :silly: damn why they make a dock that cant hold a device with a case? sure the Galaxy Nexus designed for both standard and extended batter/cover, but that it, 3rd party docks are ok, but what good it will do with stress to the USB connector? even 3rd party docks for iPhones & iPods have interchangeable thing to fit with a case, just reminds me of same ****ing story with BB 9700 and a dock, it's like it chasing me from then, I admit it, I love docks, even if the just works as only stand and charger.
Well I think I will go with that one
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Deluxe-Mo...lePhonesCasesPouches&var=&hash=item826aef259a
some good comments about it.
Yep, I have the green one. Love mine.
Still no answer from SGP, but I checked out other MOFi products and very impressed, I'w seen there a 7XL size pouch:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.3.0.109.x4SCU6&id=9236794437&
but have one concern the depth is 20mm, isn't it will be to lose inside?
For my Galaxy Nexus I will go for 5XL phone size:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.3794121-713565359.24.Ev7wgS&id=15320374460
but it 10mm in depth, so that why I think 7XL size will be on a loose side..

So I've decided to make one thread for All HD2 Accessories.
The idea is for users to list or suggest some of the best accessories you've owned and used during your time with your HTC and give a brief recommendation.
Car chargers, cases, screen protectors etc.
If an existing thread of this nature already exists - I apologize, my intention was not to create another needless one.
Please just simply re-direct me to it by the link of the preexisting one and close off this one - No hard feelings...
I think it's a better idea for a thread than the stickied film protector that sucks.
Anyway, my recommendation is the Otterbox Defender Case

Same. I'm pretty tall so the size doesn't bother me at all. If I were tiny then I could imagine the extra weight might be annoying, but I enjoy having the ability to clip it quickly to the holster. I'm also now really fast at removing it from the case in order to get to the microSD card to load up android builds directly to the card.
PS3 Controller, better and cheaper then most bluetooth pads.
In car holder, I use a cheap chinese one works fine.
THB bury bluetooth connection / HUD, good in car, read your messages/call lists/make calls/contacts ect.
here is my suggestion...
I got the first Hard Gel-case that was available and did not quite like it because it was not really perfect fit. Than at one occasion I've read I think here at XDA a post that was pointing towards this case (pics attached along with ebay item number) that was really good good fit for tmobile US HD2s ... and - ordered, and have it since... the best fit so far and serves me well.
ebay item number is: 330485183615
Hi,
Would you kind forumers give me some good suggestions on possible physical keyboard accessories that fits the HTC HD2 on an Android ROM?
I have been looking at a few and am still looking. I bought an old Freedom Pro Keyboard and found it a bit unstable to use (keys not registering certain presses). So please recommend what you are using if possible. Thank you!
My phone never leaves it's £3.99 Wallet home!
I'm already on my second one (I decided to replace it after six months as it was getting tatty, and at this price I can't complain). What's great is that it serves my need as a wallet, keeps all my valuables together, adds little bulk to the device (in the sense that it's also your wallet ), and my phone looks as good as new despite my occasional clumsy droppage. Definitely a must-have for me.
While on eBay I just saw a smarter one for £9,99 which I'm a little tempted by...
My DREAM accessory would be a genuine, larger-capacity, same physical-size battery, ah but we can only dream...
So after watching a couple reviews, I'm liking the otterbox defender case and I'm giving it some consideration... Just thought I drop a line, see if any feedback is given on this (positive or negative)
1. mugen 2600 mAh extended battery (must have...GET ONE !!!)
2. skull candy ear buds nice and loud for 13 bucks on sale!
3. 2 16gb's + 1 8gb for music
4. zagg screen protector
5. when not using the extended battery i use a thin rubberized 1 piece hard case mine is actually navy blue not black
Otterbox Defender..a must have for my work. very tough but makes the screen a little less sensitive, a small price to pay for good protection, i wish it was a little more dust and waterproof though.
HTC Oem flip case simple, cheap and works well
Desk Genie Non-Slip Charging Desk Stand..brilliant love this stand, again cheap but works well, bought this for my TP2 and still using it
Vikuiti (TM) DQC-160 best screen protector ive ever used, easy to install, would buy another if ever i needed to but 6 months and so far i dont!
Andida "1600" battery, so cheap i dont care if its 1200, good enough for a spare.
Motorola HT820 Bluetooth headphones...Old school but work flawlessly
IO Play bluetooth music streaming car kit...got mine for £60, pairs first time evertime, good voice quality and full A2DP, which is more than ive heard said for more expensive alternatives of the feathery kind!
HTC Car holder i got free with my TP2..tight but just fits
If i didnt really need to use the Defender everyday, I would have bought and extended battery, probably the offical one, but hey...
I'm looking for a soft rubber case like the case I have for my i900 Omnia.
I've just ordered an HD2 and I find this sort of case is ideal for satnav because I change cars a lot and I can plug the charger in and the phone lies flat on top of the dash without sliding off.
I haven't got the time or space to carry a proper cradle, but this works just fine.
It's made of soft, stretchy rubber a bit like the inner tube out of a tyre, with some texturing on the back which helps it grip - does anyone know what I am trying to describe?
my pocket.
^ What he said + Vikuiti (TM) screen protector.
I know I'm going to regret asking this but who or what is "my pocket" apart from the bleeding obvious?
Music Bluetooth headset
My recommendation is Bluetooth music headset ''MW600'' from Sony ericsson.
Its also been called or well it is a officially accesiore for the Sony ericsson Aino.
Cant remember and find the exact typenumber that the MW600 have for the Aino, so its has 2 type numbers.
PS3 controller

You can use the PS3 controller with HD2? Is it possible to use another bluetooth/wireless controllers on this device?
I'd be glad if anyone could tell me.

Hey guys
I tried looking it up anyone know any good dock and other accessories that fit nexus s with a case (the really thin feather one)?
b ump
Anyone try either of these ??
This might work with a case
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sync-Charge...ccessories&hash=item43ad96c95f#ht_2842wt_1140
This should definitely work.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sinjimoru-S...Accessories&hash=item3370c96d7e#ht_2273wt_982
Dock is a problem
I don't really think that you need a case. You can always change the back cover of your nexus s from time to time. And the screen is very good, mine doesn't have any scratch. Take a look at this link:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-GENUINE-ORIGINAL-HOUSING-BATTERY-BACK-DOOR-COVER-SAMSUNG-NEXUS-S-i9023-/160697790437?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item256a55afe5#ht_1248wt_1037
About the dock, nexus s do not have a multimedia dock like Motorola atrix, for example. The dock only charges and holds your phone. Even this being said I have a dock just like the one in the link bellow. It's good to have at work, you always have your phone charged.

I bought a cheap dock. My nexus s almost fitted with the case on. Took it to myself to disassemble the dock, heat the region around the port and move it slightly and angle it a tad differently. After letting it cool and putting back some hot glue it fits perfectly. ;-)
Are there any usable, elegant Docks for our 4X? I guess there's a few Universal MicroUSB Docks around, but are they nice? I'd be a bit worried about the rather small MicroUSB connector.
I use a cheap Samsung Galaxy SII deck stand from ebay and it fits perfectly and charges.
There is an elegant looking dock in the german amazon store. (Since the same thing gets sold by 3 different merchants I guess it's available in other countries as well):
http://www.amazon.de/mumbi-Optimus-4X-Dockingstation-Ladestation/dp/B0091R85UK/ref=pd_ybh_17
I will probably buy one in a few days and give feedback if it's worth the money (The gap between the dock and the device looks like it could damage the USB-Port)

im goin to fix that myself, im going to get doube sized tape (1mm thick) and put the nfc tag on it, then stick it there, and then it would be in dekstop mode at the dock, thats how im going to fix it
Aerios makes the best Smartwatch Docks, IMHO. I ordered it and the package arrived today. Just a few days after ordering. I'm in the USA and they are in Australia. It was shipped FedEx Express. Keep in mind, the amount shown on the web site is Australian Dollars, not US Dollars. So do the conversion, and the dock + shipping probably costs far less for most of you. Don't let the displayed price give you sticker shock .
The dock comes in a nice box, with an additional 3 foot charge cable. Either the supplied cable or another can be used. The hole in the dock for a microUSB is big enough for any I have ever seen. But the supplied one fits the most snug and fills the full whole. In the photos, I'm using a Blackberry MicroUSB charger.
Far as types they offer. Although they have Black with Walnut and Silver with Oak, the Silver with Oak is the only one in stock today.
The bottom of the dock, has a pad with a plastic cover. If you remove the plastic, there is sticky stuff on the bottom, in case you want to hold the dock in place on a desk. You have to supply your own round charger dock, to insert in the wooden circular cut out, and you need your own USB power plug to use with the cable.
I've attached many pictures, which I hope tell the story best.
I'll be happy to answer any questions.
I also received mine yesterday, really a quality product! The only issue I have is that my leather (closed) watch strap is a little too stiff and a too heavy: it "pushes" the watch a little away from the pins ... so I guess I have to manually modify the stand (top and bottom chamfered) in order to keep my watch connected. Do you also experience that problem?

See the strap in the photos showing my watch. I replaced the strap.
I've never been a real "fan" of LG's pin charger dock. I've had issues positioning things right, even on a flat surface. It takes a moment to position things "just right" in the Aerios dock, but it looks so sweet once in place. I don't blame Aerios, since I had issues with positioning before getting their dock. My strap does not cause the watch to fall off though. The stock leather strap is a bit heavier. Just make sure you position things well. I would not buy a new strap just to test if it works better if I were you.
I just got Wear Charging Widget and it looks really nice on the dock. Also, here's a related article about the widget. It is the only thing I've found that keeps the watch showing anything the entire time it is charging.

Just got my silver version in. Ordered earlier this week and just got it today. FAST from AUS to TX, USA!! I think the shipping alone cost a good penny lol. For my take....the stand is very very well done. I also picked up the shapeways one last month. And to compare, this one is much more polished but because I use a lot of third party watch bands on my LG G Watch, the current band kind of pushes the lg dock charger out a bit. Whereas the one I have at home has a deeper cavity to house the lg charger and the angle on this is a tad too vertical. I need to grab some double sided tape to hold into place.
I have my Brembo stick that works a bit better for $20 bux lol. But doesn't look as good lol. Do I like it? Yes, would I recommend it? for $60 bux shipped, I want to say...I'm on the border on this. If you like the look of it, then go for it. I am ok with it. It somewhat matches my desk a bit at work. But I would recommend the Shapeways one for sure. I use that every night without issue.
I posted this on Amazon but I would like to share this with the people at XDA also.

This is a great alternative to the official circle case from LG.
I have tested a few of the other ones available and this is the only one that checks all the marks.
It has Qi wireless charging.
It has NFC.
It auto activates whatever circle apps you have installed when you close it.
It auto turns the screen on and if you have swipe to unlock, it even unlocks your phone.
It actually closes all the way (this is huge as it is the first I have tried that does).
It adds almost no bulk to your device.
I can not say enough about this case. It just works as it should with no surprises.
If you compare this to the official LG Qi Circle Case, this one gives you everything that one does, and is much cheaper.
How much cheaper?
The official one is $59.99 + shipping and tax.
This one is $12.99 with free shipping and usually no tax.
Not counting shipping and tax this is a minimum of $47.00 cheaper.
And you get all the same functionality and looks.
The back of the case feels exactly like the smooth plastic LG backs.
The front and side has a almost cloth feel to them.
The side looks like it will hold up for a very long time and not crack like some of the cheaper ones.
The back fits perfectly where your original back would be.
It also has a lip on the side and some protection on the corners to prevent damage from small drops.
Overall I have no issues at all with this case and will probably buy a second one in a different color soon.
Easily a 5/5 product!
I will try and answer any questions you may have about this product.
Here is a video showing how it works and looks.

I just bought it on Amazon at your recommendation. Thanks I guess if I want to use Qi charging I just need to get LG Electronics WCP-300 Wireless Charging Pad for Qi Enabled Devices, is that about right?
Any Qi charging pad will work.
I have ones made by quite a few manufacturers..
The best ones I have used are made by Spigen and Choetech.
This is the Spigen one I have http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Charger-Spigen®-Charging-Premium/dp/B00UGIA0WY
This is a review I did of the Choetech one I have http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63171513&postcount=10
Any Qi charger made by a reputable manufacturer should work fine though.
I hope you enjoy your new case.
I got one of these based on your review, and your review is spot on. This is a fantastic case at double the price! Also 5/5 from me.

I am glad you are enjoying your new case.
I guess I just hate circle cases. It's my first circle case of any kind. I felt it added no protection, especially for the camera. I also didn't like the flap cover, just feels cumbersome and flimsy to me. That said, the wireless charging is great. I stripped out the sticker and installed it onto my original back and love it. The case worked like it was supposed to and if I were to use a circle case I'd probably pick this one based on functionality alone. The cover stays closed, charges great, works like it is supposed to.

About 60% of the speed of a plug in style charger.
I charge my phone on the Spigen Qi charger overnight and just use the other Qi chargers during the day to keep my phone topped off so I never run out of battery.
Saw that ankway is having a flash sale on this case.
It is only active for a few more hours but I figured I would let you all know just in case you can catch it.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0126P8UA8..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0PMDVZ0VQYK621DMPJ2K
Discounts it down to $9.86
Anybody know where to buy this case in Europe?
...any chance I could rip the stupid door off and use it with a real case?
I bought the same case. I've had mine for about a month. The Qi charging pad seems a little too thick, it causes the case to stick up a little bit below the volume down button . Also, the bottom left (from the front) of the case is cracked from a 3-4 foot drop. I still really like the case and would have no problem at all spending the $12-$14 on another one.
