Like when you move an icon from one home screen to another, you slide it to the edge and wait. I've tried a few different cases and they all have such a high edge on them taht they inhibit my thumb/finger's ability to go all the way to the edge of the screen - making it virtually impossible to move an icon.
The bigger issue is that it affects my typing when trying to quickly swype through the "P" or "Q", etc.
So...anyone have a case with a very low profile..allowing your finger to glide over that are similar to a case-less phone? I rarely, if ever, see that being discussed when cases are talked about.
I too am interested in what people have to say about this. I have a 2-piece hard case i don't use because it prevents me from using Swype effectively, so i just resorted to the Zagg full-body screen and avoid putting things in my pocket alongside my phone lol
I just use the verizon high gloss black case. it's a great fit. I actually had the body glove before but moved down to this one... don't drop my phone so I don't feel a need for a huge case ya know? I can now use swype and drag effectively as well.
Is the verizon case a two piece snap on or a flexible pull on?
Try the 'ElCheapo' in my sig.. swype works GREAT with it.

The Verizon case is a one piece flexible pull on.
I does have the raised lip you are talking about but it is not as pronounced as some of the aftermarket cases I've seen.
Here is one on eBay (this is the one I bought).
Verizon HTC Incredible Black Silicone Gloss Cover OEM
Just a side note...
When moving items from one screen to the other, I find it hard even without a case. A solution that works for me is to press the item you want to move and then use the virtual trackball to move from one screen to the other.

I have never had any troubles with swype while using this case. It covers no section of the screen and grips onto the small outer edge of the phone. Works like a charm!
I also hate hitting my case when swyping the screen. I find that the argile design case from amzer.com works best for me and I've been using it for a month.

admittedly, I don't have my DInc just yet but I ordered/received the Seidio Innocase Actice II for HTC Incredible... It came with a cardboard insert that mimics the phone actually being inside of it... The edges on this case seem to be really low profile and with this cardboard insert my finger can easily glide off edges.
You can get find an in-motion view of the same case for Evo on Youtube—I can't link as I am a n00b
My DInc is coming tomorrow so I will update with results but with the silicone edges and a slight inner bevel to this I think it may be what you're looking for... case features an outer exoskeleton that protects back and corners for more protection than just the silicone material could offer.

Thanks a bunch for this. Handhelditems.com is amazing!! I just ordered two "ElCheapo" skins and a 3-pack of screen protectors with express shipping (3-5 days) shipping for $15. I've seen a good review of the screen protectors and I think I'll wind up being very pleased for the money.
I used the 30% off coupon code found at http://www.techbargains.com/vendor_detail.cfm/596/Hand-Held-Items-coupon-code
Seidio Active case is pretty much non-intrusive...with good access to the screen.

UPDATE...
Swype beta appears to be closed but I've had my phone and Seidio Innocase Active for a few weeks now and I think this case will work just fine with Swype and the edge issue you mentioned.
Silicone case from best buy. Just for a red one today.

the Barely There case by Case-Mate is the best i've seen thus far. I absolutely love mine. Though the face of the screen isn't protected very well, the corners and back are. Its material feels the same as the battery cover on the back of the device. It looks nice and is very comfortable.

Well, I just got my cases and screen protectors yesterday. The cases are fantastic for the price. The screen protectors on the other hand were all cut to big and left bubbles after applying them, so I'm having them send me new ones. At least it was only $4 for all three.
I picked up the Spect case from my local VZW yesterday. I had the faded black/red from vzw and I hated the sides on it.. I wanted a one piece, not a 2 piece..
well this one is friggin awesome. The sales folks working there had never heard/seen the case before and In the 30 minutes I was in the store, 4 employees bought it after playing with it on my phone and 2 additional customers bought it as well. its a one piece design and the interior is cloth so it wont scratch up the screen. I dont have an issue with Swype as it doesn't cover the front at all.
Well worth checking out...
Innocase ii here, no issues at all.

Your welcome! What colors did you get? I got the black first then ordered the Burgundy later on.. I was kinda hoping it would be a bit darker though.
Did they give you any kinda application fluid for the screen protectors?

Hey everyone! Recently I just got my New HTC HD2 (TMOUS) Version, and I was wondering what case you guys have on your HTC HD2 or what case you have seen out there (ebay, amazon) that you believe is the best or Really good!
If you have a link to the Case website that would be fantastic!
Things I was looking for in a case:
~ Not to Bulky (Has to fit nicely into my pocket )
~ Screen Protection (Can use Screen Protector)
~ Camera Protection ( Noticed the Camera sticks out a little, and don't want it to get scratched)
~ Maybe Button Protection (Not needed necessarily)
Thanks!!
sounds like the Otterbox Commuter fits your needs
i have one, got it since it slides in and out of my pocket nicely, has a good screen protector, protects the camera, and has the buttons all covered.

It doesn't interfere with the stick on screen protector. It's not real bulky but I will say that it collects some lint/dust where the rubber part of the case is still exposed and on the camera lense (if you're keeping it in your pocket). It covers the buttons and I really like it.
With the nature of my flashing addiction, I actually drilled a small hole so I can soft reset without having the remove the case. It was ***** to line it up.

I find the standard HD2 cases have a nice tight fit in which the my TMOUS HD2 doesn't slip out of like the one that came with the phone.
They just came out so I don't expect miracles but I figured that one of these stretch rubber kind might fit it. However, I hate to add more thickness to the phone so does anyone know of an extra thin one?
You can try a i9023 case as I believe the super LCD Nexus are slightly thicker than the i9020s. I'm not too sure if the thickness is the same as the sprint versions though.

It hasn't shown up yet so I wont know for another day or 2. Users on other forums have confirmed that it fits well.
As reported in other thread incipio case fits NS4G without problems, the only "complaint" is that the cutout for power button is not centered but lowered, still it doesn't affect/press the button.
Mine came cracked at the bottom, called incipio, they're sending a new one.
i got this case and its a pain to press the power button

wish power was on top rather then on the side .. i usually change the volume when trying to turn on volume with my other fingers.
My wife wants this case but i dont believe that it will fit on the 4g version
http://cgi.ebay.com/Samsung-Nexus-S...706558?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item48406faf7e
even though it says it does
all the other ones on ebay say they wont fit
Honestly I had the hard case from best buy and it fit my ns4g better than my tmo ns Im sure any hard case will work with it. That said dont get the platinum hard case from best buy it is garbage. Those gel cases from sprint seemed about the same thickness as the best buy hard case it hit the holster perfectly but i didnt put one on the phone. Instead I went with this
http://shop2.sprint.com/NASApp/onli...ryID=CHS8564R&topPageNumber=0&subPageNumber=0
I am very happy with this case it fastens together very securly and fit even with the invisa-sheild
When I got my ns4g I had the same problem so I got both a red incipio feather and the case/holster combo from sprint
http://shop2.sprint.com/NASApp/onli...ryID=CHS8564R&topPageNumber=0&subPageNumber=0
The incipio fits fine minus the fact that power button is a little off but its really not a problem or a deal breaker. The case from sprint works great and isn't too bulky either, though not as thin as the incipio case. I personally would suggest both.

Just a heads up. The gel case at the Sprint store sucks.. It's so tight you barely have to touch the phone to turn it on, or key a volume key.. It's really awkward pressing buttons through a layer of gel.

Yeah.. This is the sucky gel case I threw in the trash. Very annoying to operate the power button and volume keys through that layer of gel.
Well... I've successfully tried ALL available cases for the NS4G now, and I'll say this... they ALL suck. All of them. I hope some decent offerings become available soon.

How does this phone fit the ZAGG Invisashield? Does it match up well with the power buttons etc?
Thanks!
The Incipio Feather case is perfect. Nice matte black finish, feels great in hand, and us thin, but still overlaps the top of screen which is great.
I know it fits slightly off on my 4G version but that's barely noticable. Looks awesome.
I have the Feather case on my EVO as well, but it does not come up and overlap top of screen, it only goes up 90% on the sides which I do not like. Wish it was designed same as the Nexus-S version.

Thanks for the heads up.
The clear argyle gel case is what I have. Yes, in the beginning it was a pain in the ass to push the buttons. I tried a little cutting on the case and now it's not so difficult to deal with. I got a brand new exacto knife blade with a tip blade. I put the case on the phone and gently made a surface mark on the top, bottom, left and right of where the buttons actually are. The volume seemed centered correctly but the power wasn't. Anyways, I made my marks with the tip of the knife so I knew where to cut. I went about a millimeter farther than I needed to go on the borders. I removed the phone and put something the same thickness as the phone on the inside of the gel to give me some leverage to carefully make the cutouts in the gel. I didn't try to cut it all in one shot. I made many passes on the line I was cutting until I managed to go all the way through. It doesn't look stock and it's not ocd perfect but it got the job done and the case is still strong. I originally got the two piece with the holster at sprint but I didn't like it quickly when holding it in my hand with a flat palm, the phone would slide down easily in my hand. I was too afraid of that adding to the chance it might fall out of my hand. The gel is still strong, covers all the phone, has a lip on the front where the screen is so it's not flush on the screen and it doesn't interfere with a zagg screen protector. I could post pics if anyone is interested in seeing it.

Hi, i recently bought a "NILLKIN LG G2 Fresh Series Leather Case" from a vendor. Accordin to the pictures and the specs the QuickWindow feature should work, but its not... The feature is acitvated in the phones setttings but theres no reaction to the screen when i swipe in the little window. Does anyone have a suggestion how to solve this? Does only the LG G2 retail accessories work proper with this feature? Are there any custom-rom features that could solve this? Cheers!

I have the LG quick window case and it works perfectly well.
On closer inspection of the case it looks like there is a circular chip embedded within the back of the front case and I guess its that chip which then enables the software on the LG G2 to display the reduced visible window area.
Therefore I guess no other cases will work unless its the official case?
there is a setting for it under general > accessory
Make sure the embedded magnet in the cover is lined up with the left side of the screen about 1/3 of the way down, that's where the sensor is.

It's just a magnet.
BTW, get a better case (other than quick window). Just dropped mine from about 3 feet and it not only bounced, but popped off with no problem. My precious now has battle damage. On top of that, it appears to affect certain screen protectors. Even after cleaning the screen protector, the area of the window has an outline and gathers debris easier.

Case works well
I picked up one of these cases from Amazon and can confirm it works as intended. The window shows the clock when the case is shut and then again when the power button is hit or a call comes in. The only downside I can see right now if the lack of a hole for the notification light. I plan on making a hole for the light when I get home with a hot nail.
Hi,
Planning to get the same case, but having second thought. Does it bother you that the case does not have hole for the notification? BTW, is the back cover feel nice, and grippy?

The lack of a notification hole was easy to fix, I just expanded the hole for the speaker. The material is vinyl cover cardboard? so it did not melt as expected. I ended up taking a fine blade and cutting the space I wanted. This left ugly white edges so I colored it in with a marker as well as the window edges. If you have a small craft punch it would make a nice, clean hole.
The case is better in the hand than the bare phone. The back is smooth, but seems more grippy than the naked phone. I usually folder over the case when holding it so it helps with the grip as well.

Which material is used on the back, it looks kind of grippy like the N5 back, or is it just plastic?
Also, how long did it take to arrive?

I think its a textured hard plastic or maybe that TPU material.....it feels really nice in the hand......Shipping was pretty quick and free....surprisingly it took only 2 weeks to deliver from China to the US.
Anyone in India found a good screen protector and case ?
Would prefer something from flipkart as i am ordering the phone from there.
Thanks !

About the Matt screen guard, I am not sure. but I got one myself from gadgetshieldz.. Used only the screen protector as of now! Pretty good i must say! Except for the fact, I didnt apply the skin pretty well! That apart, rest assured, its a good product!:good:

I'd ordered the Phone on the launch day, hence I got the Original Motorola Flip Cover with 50% discount (i.e. 850/-)
I must say, quality of the cover is excellent.
The back is matte finished with a very premium look, it also protects the camera lens nicely by adding a little bump to it.
The case has magnets into it and it snaps to the phone nicely.
Ohh....the flip cover also wakes the device automatically when opened and also locks the device when closed.
If you can also get it for 850, I'm sure you won't regret buying it.
About the matte scratchguard, I actually bought one from eBay but haven't used it because the cut outs looks a little off...
Hope it helps other buyers....
Btw, if someone finds a perfect fit scratch guard, please share the link etc here...

I dont like the flip cover as it makes the phone very bulky ! Thanks for the inputs though.

@VanshKhanna: I ordered on their website itself! They arent yet available with the retail vendors yet. I picked the complete protection for 499! There's some discount going on in gadgetshieldz.in. Check them out.
PS: Its not Matt finish!
Does any of you know of any Moto G(2014) case which allows closing and opening cover over the ports because my last phone gathered a lot of lint inside the charging and headphone ports?

From thier website..
http://www.gadgetshieldz.in/:)
I bought this case from amazon - http://www.amazon.in/Heartly-Spider...F8&qid=1417076843&sr=8-1&keywords=moto+g+kick
Although it is bulky but the black part can be de-attached if you want a less bulky look. It will also protect Moto G's fragile display (prone to damages even with minor falls) from damage to a great extent. I bought the white colored case and it looks great. Many of my friends liked the case's unique look (even I took off the black layer).
About the screen protector, I bought a total care screen protector from a local shop for 150/-
It's great and I use the 'total care' screen protectors on almost all my devices. I can say that the quality is great.
If you decide to buy gadgetshieldz, use promocode 'adw20' for discount.

This guy bought the same case as me. Check out the pictures.
Any suggestions for the screen guard guys?
And ofc some good suggestions for case wont hurt either Would prefer non flip cases..
Surprisingly, no grip shells for the 2nd Gen Moto G :|

I was using a Matte screen guard before changing to Nillkin, The matte one definitely reduced a lot of glare but also hampered the brightness and crispiness.
Nillkin looks like stock glass screen with additional protection.

Those are good relevant points.. thanks mate
I have ordered from myscreenguard.com, will try them for few days and then will go with Nillkin stuff.
As for the case, i have ordered Cruzerlite Bugdroid. Wanted the Tudia TPU case, but that wasnt available unfortunately.
Hoping for the grip shells to be released by lazy Moto people soon.
