Warning: even thought phones have same dimensions as reported by a multitude of websites not all cases fit.

I think LG and several reputed websites got bad rounding errors.
these are all the same size, except for 0.4 mm difference in lenght.

LG and other websites are reporting different sizes for d802 version...
edited
Verizon version is thicker due to Wireless charging.
Look for measurements in mm, not inches as that's the industry standard :good:
Given that cases are mostly entirely standard, apart from for the verizon g2 is it? I think that LG won't be getting any complaints at all. I just got my Spigen case today, it has a hole in the back for the noise cancelling mic. However, my phone is a UK 802 and has no mic hole on the back at all, yet, the case fits perfectly. So the phone cant be any bigger than the others?
the reason why I think that is because many have said the cases dont fit from different manufacturers. And different measurements are reported across LGs own website for D802.
According to Verizon website the phone is same dimensions as AT&T and Tmobile. The measurements are reported on their website as the same. So something has gone wrong

yeah well i had the poetic feather type case before they specified that verizons version wouldn't fit it, and it didn't fit at all. had to send it back.
so yeah, cases from any other version won't fit verizon, period.
So its true wrong sizes are being reported not only by lg.
where didnt the Verizon fit?
Sent from my LG-D802
International D800-D803/Sprint all have the same form factor with the D800 mic as an exception.
Verizon has a specific rear housing, different buttons and has wireless charging thus is a different form factor.
Korean model has a (easily)removable back cover, removable battery and an SD card slot, early flip cover cases and cases imported from Korea were found to not fit, which was a result of their phone being different.
This really isn't rocket science when you understand the differences between the phones, it seems some case makers have made really expensive mistakes though.
adapted first post accordingly

Cool let us know what they say?
I think that I and other user might have just got unlucky. Its just the differences in size could have played a role in all the reports across case manufacturers of not fitting cases.
It depends if all d802 owners experience this with the black version. So far I know of 3, myself included
edit: pretty much everyone with a D802 has it with this case

UPDATE
It arrived today!
The case fits nice and snug. Pictures forthcoming (may take me a week before I have time). It stretches a bit at the bottom but I believe that can be remedied with a little bit of creative sanding on the inside of the case. Honestly though, it's almost perfect without any modification.

I've tried searching and googling to no avail. Found one (questionable) post here from a while ago that states it fits but I want to make sure so....
Does the Capdase Soft Jacket 2 Xpose case fit the TMOUS HD2?
This is it btw: http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=1&bid=5&mid=321&pid=5277
While I'm here.... any docks that fit the HD2 with a case on? (I know of plenty that fit it bare)
Probably so,i have the silver chrome metal one from capdase. It was marked for the euro version, but it fit my tmo hd2 just fine. So I would say your good to go.

Oh, you have the alumor? (this one: http://www.capdase.com/en/product5.php?cid=1&bid=5&mid=321&pid=5156) and it fits?
Please confirm because I will get that one then!
The dimensions of the HTC HD2 and the T-Mobile HD2 are slightly different.
Since all Capdase case are custom designed to fit the device it is intended for. The Soft Jacket 2 Xpose (HTC HD2) will not fit the T-Mobile HD2 perfectly.
Although the Leather cases should be okay.

I don't know, I just checked ebay and it specifically said:
"15 Feb 2011 - All colors are in limited stock
* IMPORTANT: This case is designed for the international version of HTC HD2 and DOESN'T FIT perfectly with the US T-Mobile version."
http://cgi.ebay.com/HOT-Capdase-Alu...434176?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20b22098c0
Since the US version is larger, I don't see how it would work. But I believe the people who say it does. Just be advised...

That is interesting. The Otterbox, for example, will most definitely NOT fit the T-Mobile HD2 in the International version. Difference in design, I suppose.
I think it just depends how much 'give' there is in the case. Otterbox isn't flexible at all, whereas as I understand it the alumor has rubber inside which can compress. Everyone please remember the tmous version is only about 2mm taller.
Anyways, I ordered the capdase softjacket. I'll see if it fits. I'm prepared to file down the inside ends in order to make it fit, I'm sure I could get 2mm out of that.
If it won't fit, i'm out $12, not a disaster.
I'll update with pics if it fits. (PS. if you're reading this 2 months from now and I haven't posted anything, PM me)
rkarsk, have you received the case yet? I'm interested to know if it will fit the t-mobile hd2.
It's only been about 3 days since my last post and I expect it to take several weeks (at least 2) to arrive.

Hi all... I know this is yet another case thread, but I'd appreciate some Uk specific advice please....
I have a very cheap case off Amazon for my Nexus 7. It is OK I suppose, slightly too big perhaps, but I don't think it will last long and also the sensor lock/unlock does not work. I have pointed this out to the seller and been sent a new, different case but this is also too large for the Nexus 7 and the lock/unlock still does not work.
If any owners in the UK have a case that fits well and locks as it should then please let me know. I don't want to spend much but equally I want a case that works.
Thanks
I've been using the G-Hub case from amazon uk (product code: B008KPVSQC). It's just a cheap pleather case, but the Nexus 7 fits inside snugly and the lock/sleep function works well.
What sort of price range you lookin' for?
I'm looking around the £10-£20 mark, however I just saw the G-HUB for £4.99 incl. delivery (admittedly it is the black/white polka dot version). The main issue is the fit.... the N7 moves around in my current cases, and also the sensor lock/unlock. So fingers crossed this case will do the job.
Thanks
Just got a Nexus 7 the other day and have been scouring the web for the right case. There's surprisingly few slim and attractive cases with a smart cover. I was looking for something slim, that doesn't cover the bezel, and provides a magnetic cover. I found this beauty on a Chinese wholesalers site. Doesn't appear to be on ebay or any retailer site yet. Unfortunately, for now it can only be ordered wholesale with a minimum of 100 pieces.
What do you guys think? It also comes in 10 colors. Can't wait til I can purchase an individual piece.
Since I'm new I can't post a link, but if you go to alibaba.com you can find it with a quick search for nexus 7 fold case.
Some pics:
Exactly what I'm looking for.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
From pic it seems to cover at least one of the 2 mics? Maybe both?
i don't know the rules of xda super well. But why not try starting a group buy thread? If it's wholesale for 100, that'll be cheaper than if we all bought it alone. Possible we get a 100 people to buy right?
It's just a variation on a theme, there are a number of almost dentical cases available already on Amazon and eBay. Quality and prce varies a bit but they most likely all come out of the same factory in Shenzen.

I have D415, ordered S-line case on ebay. It doesn't fit right, slightly smaller than my phone. I wonder if its a defect or made for 405/410 models? Cutouts don't align properly and the case doesn't fit. I like the case. Its cheap and grippy. The screen protector that was included with it is not perfect edge to edge but it fits ok. Ordered another protector from a different seller and its the same fit. Looking for seller recommendations for good-fitting edge-to-edge screen protector and s-line case.
forgot to mention got my hands on the original ipod/iphone earpods. mic works great with this phone. I use it to record phone conversations on landline. For some reason the same earpods don't work with s3. Also earpod buttons can control some 3rd party camera apps. Something i discovered recently after playing with bt remotes.
Is the LG Optimus L90 D415 bigger than the D405/410? I just bought a case and it seems to be too small for my phone.

same here. The seller i bought from says its not for 415 and 405/410 are different. Seller has a picture of what looks like 415 but 415 is not listed. Ordered from another seller that has 405/510/415 listed. That seller says they are the same. No separate option to order for different modes. 16 days after ordering received ebay notification my item has shipped. it'll be another month before i know if this case is the right one, if i ever receive it.

the first case that doesn't fit bought on ebay - seller hksanho. waiting for the second case from seller buyeasy-uk2. will post when/if it arrives. s-line tpu case.
Just in case nobody knows this, if you get some headphones, earbuds, or IEMs that are designed to work with Samsung Galaxy devices (since the Galaxy S2, iirc) they'll work perfectly with LG devices like the G2, G3, L90, L9, Tribute, and so on.
I have a pair of Koss Steel earbuds that I "transplanted" to a Samsung cord w/remote about 2 years ago, plugged them into my G2 a few weeks back and was happily surprised they functioned as expected: Play/Pause/Next works as it should and the Volume buttons work properly as well.
No additional software required... just wanted to toss that out there so other people know if they don't already. You can get Samsung Galaxy earbuds on eBay for like $10 or less these days, the cord quality is excellent and very difficult to get knotted up because of the way it's designed and the particular materials it's made of make it pretty much knot-resistant too. I keep mine in a pocket in my shorts most of the time, take 'em out and they're ready to go in seconds without having to fight to untangle 'em.
Just an FYI for folks with LG devices.

I will no longer order cases for this phone on ebay. S-LINE case from two different sellers did not fit D415. Its smaller than the phone. Sellers either don't know what their suppliers sell or play the "i refund you leave 5 start positive feedback" game selling defective crap. Very annoying. Always buy cheap cases on ebay, never had a problem before.
I hope someone can find a case online that fits and post the link.

The case I bought from cellphonecases.com fit. I didn't think that it fit at first. I thought that I had to make it fit in the case by pressing hard. Someone showed me that I had to pull off the rubber casing and then pull apart the plastic pieces, which go on the front and back of the phone. Then put the rubber casing back on and it worked.

And i had bought it from aliexpress for 18$ i am not sure if it was cuz of a mistake in pricing or what but soon after my purchase the price was 28$! I was just lucky i guess....
Wow. That does look nice. How does it compare to the original ballistic? The exact same feel or any differences? Also, how easy was it to replace?
Now I just need someone to verify that the Metalized Back will fit the 64GB and that there is't some memory module or something that makes it need the nylon back....

Never used the Ballistic Nylon b4 so cant commenr on that... But the back seems of really high quality... And has original Motorola Logo with serial numbers n stuff so i am pretty confident its an OEM product... So guess they should feel the same!

Was also curious about this. Just saw this update today: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/general/red-64-gig-turbo-t2994543
TL;DR, it fits.
I want to try this but I'm concerned that I'll snap the frame.
Installation was painless. Used a guitar pick. No problems with the adhesive. Fits perfect.
i would KILL for a RED nylon one.

From some of the stuff I read is that there are some slight measurement differences between the devices. BN, Maxx, and the 32gb turbo.
So you all think it's worth the $25 to try this out then, right?
Still nervous about popping the back off a perfectly good phone, but man I want the normal black back instead of this nylon one.

I think that's just because the actual backs are different, but not anything else on the phone.
