DOCKABLE CASES - simplism - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am starting a new thread because I know many of us who have a charger dock would like to use it with a cover case. I only know about the Simplism ultra thin cover case but It is difficult to get it for Europe and It is expensive for a simple plastic case I think (around $25). Anybody knows any other dockable cases? Impresion about simplism? ways to get it to Europe? best website? any ebay-chinise copy of that case? A cheaper one?
I would like to know other options for use my charger dock not extracting the case. Thank you very much.

with just a quick search of XDA, I found several existing threads for your topic.
Also ALL question threads are to be placed in the Q&A.

Does anyone know European vendors for this case?

Hi there,
I've been looking for a new case for my x7500 and found this American item on Ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250314288001
However, the vendor doesn't answer my questions regarding payment, so I wonder if anyone in the EU is also selling this case.
Ps: I don't like nutshells, Pielframa, Pdair etc. since none of them has this subdisplay window.
Thanks for any hint
will
Hi Will
Before you commit to anything see this thread

post 6 and 9
I believe its the same case but you could check with totalkill in case im mistaken
Thanks for the reply, I thought as much that this case wouldn't win first prize but it's the only one which has a subdisplay window. I can't understand why HTC cases don't have this feature...
The OEM cases for the 7510 does have a sub display, and is the exact same size as the ones with the display. You can find them at expansys for about 40 bux. I think that and the tuff as a nut is an ideal way to go. Now that I`ve ordered a new housing i plan on trying a rhino skin when the new housing comes. I do suggest you use thgat ebay case only if u still plan to put the phone in a tuff as a nut pouch or you will definately be sorry, like I was after the 2nd week of purchase.
Ach, what fool I am! I've just bought a Pdair...oh well, it should do.
hey will, how is the pdair as I want a new case to protect mine.

List your Recommended HD2 Accessories

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.

Simple Silicone Case

Hey,
I am always really good with my devices (never really drop em, never scratch em) and what I usually do on my phones is put on a simple silicone case on them and that keeps it safe from scuffs and stuff
Ive been looking around the internet, amazon, ebay, etc trying to find a simple black silicone case for the nexus 7.
I found this http://www.focalcase.com/google-nexus-7-cases-google-nexus-7-silicone-case-c-199_205.html but I'm not familiar with the site and id rather not buy from china (takes a long time)
I understand that these things usually take some time because they have to be molded from the device, etc but i was wondering if anyone has found a legit place on the internet (not some random website) selling these.
If not, i'll update this post when i do find a place and order from there.

From Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/KaysCase-X-Shape-Google-Tablet-Android/dp/B008GFHP5O/
Picture doesn't show cutouts for buttons or speakers, but the description says they're there. Maybe just contact them if you're interested and confirm that the appropriate cutouts are there. I have not purchased it, just offering it up as an option. Oh, and it's black, as requested.

Does a case/sleeve like this exist?

Hi everyone, there have been a lot of great accessories recommendations in this thread and ever since I received my unit, I've been browsing religiously.
The problem is, none of the cases I've seen here (mostly folio ones) interest me.
I am looking for a case that is similar to the following that I have tried to illustrate in MS paint: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/51636645/case.jpg
Don't mind the coloring. I used those colors so that I can better explain. I am pretty sure cases like this exist somewhere in the world because I've seen them before, but I can't remember when/where and for what types of devices I've seen them for... and most of all, I do not know what this type of case is called.
Anyway, it is essentially a sleeve, but the key thing is, there is no zipper. On the left of the image I posted, that's what it would look like closed, on the right, that gross neon green looking thing is supposed to be the Nexus 7 sitting in the pouch with the top flap open. I am not really sure how to explain in words, but it's not simply just a flap that goes over the top, but it actually wraps around the top of the device when closed, and it's able to do this because the material would be some sort of neoprene-y stretchy material.
So, does this zipperless, top wrapping flap type of case exist for 7" tablets? (doesn't have to be specifically made for N7, of course, also, is there a specific name for this type of case design?). I guess I can only best describe it as a "sock" except it wraps around?
Thank you

What? Maybe I don't understand your painting, but I've had one of these since the Nook Color. I'm using the same sleeve for my N7.
I actually keep my N7 in this, then put this case and the N7 in it into the above when traveling.
Wow, just like that you answered my question. I went through 19 pages (as of yesterday) of this forum to make sure that it wasn't posted, but maybe I missed it (if it was posted). Apologies to everyone if it was right in front of my eyes and I didn't see it.
That eBay link to that product is exactly what I am looking for. Thank you so much!

Leather Quick Circle Case??

I've called Lg and looked all over Google, but I can't find an answer. Tmobile appears to be offering the G4 in metallic gray and brown leather only. Having had the black G2 and gray G3 I wanted to switch it up and get white, but it doesn't look like I can. So I'm leaning towards the leather back, but I absolutely want an official quick circle case like I had on my 2 and 3. Does anyone know if there will be a quick circle case for the leather back that won't damage it or take away from the point of having the leather?

Next time provide me with a link that answers my question if you're gonna be a smartass. I've been around these forums enough. I don't need you telling me to search I looked through the threads and saw nothing about it. I don't just start new threads for any reason, I read that thread and it got to be more on the topic about wireless charging only..

That link pretty much answers your question....the short answer is it replaces your back, it does not go over it.

The German company Stilgut will be coming out with a high quality genuine leather quick circle case for the G4 sometime in August. You can check out their cases for the G3 on their website. It looks like their cases can allow wireless charging. They also snap onto the existing back cover so I would guess they wont fit over the G4's leather back. Id say get plastic back and wait till august.
Well no matter, what you buy, but my frank advise would be not to buy Nillkin QIN Quick Circle Leather cover. Because, i bought one, after watching checking the product photos on the official site, that looked quite beautiful, but the actual product when arrived was just not upto the mark. It's not actually leather cover, but some hard material on front that has a thin layer of leather pasted (NOT stitched) on front and back. So, after few usage it'll easily come out. Secondly, the charging port is not accessible, you'll need to remove the cover to use the port for charging or for any other kind of usage.
