I have the tmobile nexus s. I've been looking online and found a few that look cool but don't really match what I want exactly or that are made for the Nexus S specifically.
This one is almost perfect. I'd rather it load from the top so I can pull the phone out without having to open the wallet. Like keep the wallet in the pocket and still pull out the phone. Also this one may be a tad on the small side for the dimensions of the nexus s. I'd also like to keep it thin. Cards, cash and phone.
I can't believe I'm the only one who would want that...
I think i kind of hate the leather covers, coz with time the cover tend to get bad smell...!!!
take a look on pdair, i bought a case for my ex aver liquid and is still looking good

Just bought a leather case, but it's designed for Galaxy S. I Hope it's going to fit
Can anyone tell me what the best case would be for my HD2, besides an otterbox?
I have the US version of the phone which is longer than the European..
And I have searched everywhere, and I am pretty sure that I read that they stopped making otterboxes for these because everywhere is sold out (I can't even find any on Ebay or Amazon!).
I had my phone for a week and it fell out of my pocket onto my driveway and the screen cracked like a spider web.. So now I have to spend about $150 to get the screen replaced, and I am not willing to do so unless I can get a secure case for it..
Any suggestions?

This should probably be in the 'HD2 Accessories' section, you'll get more info there I guess. I personally use the leather HTC pouch which came free with my phone, and it works extremely well! I've had the phone for a year and not a single scratch on it even though it's constantly in contact with my keys and stuff.
Piel Frama (http://www.pielframa.com/htc-touch-hd-2-imagnum-tan-cases.htm)
I think it's the best!
Sorry, I didn't realize that there was a forum for HD2 accessories...
But those leather cases are more like pouches, right? As in, you still have to pull the phone out to use it, and its more of just a carrying case?
I am looking for something like an OtterBox, with maximum protection and is always on the phone

Oh right, yeah they are but I personally don't find it much trouble. I think there may be one which is more like the otterbox one as well (by HTC) so try it, the leather gives a nice high quality feeling
The Otterbox Defender is a good case, as long as you don't need to get the phone in and out of the case.
It is two pieces, a silicone rubber case, then a hard plastic shell. If you need to change the battery or reboot the phone by pulling the battery, there is a good chance the plastic shell will split or break.
I've been through two of those cases. The first one Otterbox customer service (very nice FWIW) sent me a new one under warranty. After the second one cracked I just didn't bother. Even cracked it protects the phone pretty well.
There just aren't that many cases for the HD2 since every other day HTC comes out with a new phone.

Found the one I meant, it's here and it seems alright, although I've never used it before.
What about one of these?

I prefer to take the phone out for use. I've had the HD2 since release and always go back to the original case as supplied with the HD2:

Haha yeah, see my problem is that I will take it out, but never put it back in...
Boxwave corsa moda case are next best to otterbox, i'm using one.for Tmous hd2 ,you can get it for $19 they have two type of case,book type & flip type,I'm using the flip type..hope it helps
I have a otterbox defender for tmo US HD2 in like-new condition I rarely use & would be open to selling or trading for the right offer. i didn't realize how rare these are now... I've checked ebay several times over the last couple months trying to see what they sell for, but i haven't seen a single one up there!
Id love to trade for a 64gb sandisk microsdxc if anyone would be willing... Id ofcourse put in something else or cash on top of the case to make it fair. any interest, pm me an offer.

I've come across them on ebay every once in awhile but your right, they can be very hard to find even on other websites as well. And then most of the times when you do find them its for the international model which i believe wont fit the US version. I've had some luck with other ebay countries that ship to the US but thats really hit and miss.
A new 64gb sandisk microsdxc will set you back around $95-$135 and a new otterbox would cost around $40-$50 and thats if you can even find it which would be difficult to say the less. I read some reviews of people who didn't like theirs but most seem quite happy with it. Considering that they are hard to find his offer isn't really to high priced especially considering he offered to add money towards the trade. About two months ago I seen a used one go for like $40 on ebay if i remember correctly but then again one sold for only $13 w/ free shipping a couple weeks ago. You can see that here. Worth way more then $13 though, who ever got a steal on that.
Considering our phone has Cornings Gorilla Glass I think there is really no need to go all out. Get a nice full body screen protector such as clear-coat found here and put it in a fairly nice...but not break your bank account nice case. Something around $10 should do. Clear-coat normally has sales/coupons going on so if you do go that route try to look one up. I've had mine in a cheap $5 case since i bought it just after they came out and have even dropped it a few times, luckily my phone still looks like its in mint condition.
Yeah, I didn't mean that I'd only trade it for a 64gb microSD... if anyone wants to make any offer, I'd consider it. I already have a Noreve leather case that I use for my HD2, and I've rarely used the otterbox case, so I figure there's no reason for me to hang on to it.

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.

I prefer silicone over tpu
thanks though!! im sure someone else reading this will like that
I just got a Droid 3, and I'm liking it for the most part. My only issue with it is the slightly loose slider which opens the phone inside my pocket. I gather this is a normal occurrence, but it's still annoying. Anyone know of a hard case that has some sort of slider locking mechanism? I've tried the Verizon original case, but it doesn't really help.
Monoco has an aluminum case that you have to open to use the slider,but let's you access the other functions without opening, search aluminum case for droid 3 on ebay.

I don't know if its what you're looking for, or if you already found something, but my trident case i got on amazon for 20 works wonders, its basically an otterbox. Multiple colors, and although it doesnt have that slider locking mechanism you were looking for, my phone has never opened in my pocket since i bought it back in september.

Hello fellow XDAers,
I was chosen to write a review for Artech's new product, which is a full leather wallet for our beloved G4's. Please see Amazon's link for the full product description:
http://www.amazon.com/Artech-21-Pre...qid=1433632855&sr=8-1&keywords=artech+case+g4
From the moment you open the package, the scent of real leather overcomes all of your other senses. The shipment arrived with bubble wrap within the envelope, with Styrofoam foam packaged within to prevent the wallet from being crushed during shipment. Upon closer examination, it is easy to tell that the leather is of premium grade by sight, if not by touch.
The fitment of the phone and credit card is superb. Once you slip your phone into position, the case holds onto it for its dear life. I attempted to "yank" it out of position to see how easily the phone would fall out if I were to take the case in and out of my pocket, but it's almost like the phone is completely locked into the slot. It feels extremely secure, thus, I would not worry about the phone slipping out for any reasons, accidental or not. The two credit card slots, as well as the transparent slot for the ID card fits nicely, yet, it allows for you to easily remove them from its slots in order for the cards to be used (swiped). The transparent ID slot has a hole for you to slide your finger to remove the ID from its slot.
The cutouts are literally perfect all around. The camera, volume buttons, flash, light sensors, speakers are perfectly aligned, while the headphone jack, charger port, the dual mics, and IR sensors are exposed for connectivity. All of which, still remains within the case to prevent damage, of course. The case closes with a magnetic clip that attaches on its own upon closing, and does not appear to be flimsy.
The case wallet is created based on "simplicity." It "only" allows two cards (three, if you include your ID), and would allow for just a few US bank (currency) notes. Personally, I'd give this a 4.75 star out of 5. The only reason is that I can't seem to fit bank notes without having to fold them. I can certainly understand that many people do not carry cash, and I do not often do it either. However, this is a wallet - and I would expect a wallet to hold cash properly.
I haven't got mine yet. I'm expecting it tomorrow and will double around with another review as that was my promise. Look at all them 100's. Haha
Let me know if anyone is interested in this case. I only wanted to do the review on it, but I'd like to stick to my Ringke since it's great for working out.

Do credit cards give any danger to the screen such as pressing down on each other and rubbing against each other?
I've always worried that this kind of flip case might scratch the screen.

The cards have no chance to rub against each other - they are clearly separated. I do not see the cards scratching the screen upon closing or opening, however, I suppose there is always a chance of this when you're storing your phone with other items in your pocket/purse, etc. Due to the padding of the area around the cards, I want to say that it is probably safe on your screen.

Just wanted to thank Charlie again for his generosity.
I got the case and I'm impressed with the quality of the leather and the crafting. Definitely has the genuine leather smell and it looks like it would need to take a pretty severe beating to bend or crease or crack. As far as functionality, I don't think I'm going to use it as a full time wallet since I've just gotten to used to my own, but one of the reasons I like this case is I usually just toss my phone into my messenger bag/laptop bag for work so this case will definitely protect the phone from keys, pens, cables rubbing against it... etc. or also if you ever put your phone down and worry about the surface being wet or dirty.
The plastic backing seems sturdy enough to keep the phone from shifting out or getting loose.
I will probably also end up buying the dark brown version. :good:

Credit cards dont have enough hardness to scratch the screen. And put a tempered glass screen protector on

To be honest , even your key can not make a scratch on the screen .
but the sand will ( Same thing as Diamond ,lol)
Just ordered the dark brown one from Amazon also. This is a quality product. :good: I can't stop holding the case to my nose and getting high off the smell of the leather. :silly:
