My wife doesn't use hers. I can sell you that one.

how much do you want?

Got one too if that doesnt work out.

Are you talking about the one offered in T-Mobile stores?
If so, stay away. It fits very loose and because of it the phone slides around. During calls, the proximity sensor cant work properly so the screen goes on and off during calls. Your face will constantly hit buttons.

Im pretty sure i have the stock one for you .... I wont bother selling it to you you can just have it PM me

If you want the one that comes in the box just go into a T-mobile store I'm sure they would give you one out of a return.

Cheap OEM Replacement Battery Door

I found these today on eBay and bought 2 of them, one WHITE, one GREY. They are the CHEAPEST I can find online at the moment.
I decided to get the grey because I sound a grey note 2 today and it looked quite awesome. I got the white one so I can have one as a back up.
Here are the links:

Thank you!
Do you like them so far?

Let us know how the covers fit when you get them! My original back cover is not snapping all the way in below volume rocker, if I press hard the back cover with the phone on the table I can get the clip hold for sometime, but even the slightest bump to the phone releases the snap from it's home.
The cover leaves a small gap in there which creaks a bit when I hold to phone from that position. I doubt that the operator store has spare ons lying around , but mayby I could try to have a flip-case for free for the semi defect back cover.

Yup let us know
Wondering if it's actual genuine cover...

Well I decided to go ahead and get one since it is only 15 bucks.
It says though that i shouldn't expect it until mid december. Once i get it though if i can remember ill post some pics.
edit: still waiting, eta is 0-19 days and tracking says it is in my state

new battery door finally came in. Material quality is almost exactly the same as stock. Writing on the back is missing the galaxy note II branding but that may be becuase i have the sprint version.

If your into using nfc then you may wanna go with oem. It appears to not have nfc antenna. The are some 3rd party battery doors that have it built in but they'll cost you a little more.

IF you use one of the 50% off Samsung codes, or register your device on Samsung.com and use the code they send you, you can order a replacement battery door from them for $9.99. Bought mine yesterday morning and had it here by noon today. I messed up the one that came with my phone trying to Mod it.

I only see the verizon battery door on the website.

You could also order from Samsung for $19.99... there's plenty of 50% codes floating around that could bring it down to 9.99

If you flip over the cover, does it work to support the phone as a kickstand in landscape?

Nope. It just slips and falls over.

Have had the case now for over a day and I do have a few thoughts about it. Purchased at a Verizon store last Sat(none in my area had it in stock apparently) for $48 with tax and 3 day shipping to my home. Color was the grey which I thought went really well with my gunmetal model. Upon putting it on the phone I felt that the fit was spot on. The back snapped right into place and the front flip cover rests evenly on the screen. Functionality of the case is second to none. It works as advertised ranging from being able to see time and current weather conditions to making and answering calls.
Some of the other things that will light up are any incoming text messages and you can also dismiss any alarms that you have set to go off by simply following the gestures. A big question that I had when I bought the case was whether or not that the music playback would be hindered. I'm very happy to report that audio playback was just as clear and precise as if the cover wasn't over the front of the device. Another plus is when you open the cover the phone automatically unlocks and the screen shuts off when the cover goes back on. Thus greatly eliminating use of the top mounted power button.
I felt the choice of the materials for the case were not bad. The rear material certainly doesn't feel like a cheap plastic by any means, but it's nowhere near as nice as the phone's metal finish. The most comfortable way of using the phone for me was to hold the cover with my left hand and use my right to operate the phone itself. Now, I have rather large hands so this could obviously be different if you weren't blessed with such a thing. Folding the front of the case back over the rear proved to be uncomfortable to me. Another downside is the fact that the front cover cannot double as a kickstand when positioning the phone in landscape. When done so, the phone just falls flat on its back.
Overall, I definitely like the case. It has that wow factor to it as everyone I have showed it to have been amazed by it's functionality. The only things that HTC should improve on it is to have the front flap being able to fold back and stay flush on the rear of the device. I also would had like for the front flap to stay open when you open, but the trade off is that when it springs back into position it does a good job of staying over the screen, even in a loose pocket. I noticed no addition use of the screen during the day in Gsam battery monitor. If I were to give it a score out of 10 I'd place it at an 8. Only major cons would be price and certain aspects of holding the device depending on hand size.
I'd have to tip my hat to HTC for coming up with the concept. If anyone has anymore questions about it feel free to ask.

I'm having german t-mobile as well, they told me today that the cases should arrive this week..? but don't know how true that is..
amazon started listing the colored variations today, but all of them are marked as "available for preorder"

any chance you could post a couple of pics showing what the case looks like when open and folded back? All the photos i've seen of it don't show this. want to know how much it bulks the phone out.
cheers

Managed to pick the one and only one of these up from my local Phones4U in Croydon today, then went to the other local Phones4U and bough the other one, looks like they are finally starting to trickle in.

Figured out how to get the case to function as a kickstand. It's simple, but involves needing something else like a laptop or book as a prop. Simply open the cover and fold it over the back of the device. Then just rest the device on the laptop or book of your choice. Then, boom it stays put in place and with the way I got it, the angle is pretty nice for viewing.

I've seen this case on verizon website - http://www.verizonwireless.com/acce...w-htc-one-m8-black-blue-geometic/#?color=Blue
and i just fall in love with. enyone know where else i can but this case?
I haven't seen it in amazon website and even in incipio site
Im not from the US so verizon has probably limits on buying from it...

I have this exact case from Verizon store day i bought my device in the store. But mine doesn't have that fancy design, the hard plastic inside is a dark grey and the hard plastic outside part is black. Matches my dark grey M8 perfectly! I can say though hands on this is the slimmest case imaginable for the most solid protection hands down! Just don't like there's no grip at all. Say your hands are a little sweaty/wet, it's hard to get a solid grip on this thing. If feels as sleek as it looks basically. Only complaint i have.

Thanks for your help, but of course, verizon by its stupidly canceld my purchase. so maybe someone else know how to get this case?

Has anyone got any of these generic dot view cases?

Are they good? They're even advertised as "Genuine" for $7~8, but without the HTC logo at front / back.
Ebay link
Note: Yes, we know that not everybody likes the dot view case.

Here's the one with the HTC logo for a few bucks more.
Personally, I think it's the same exact piece of plastic. One just has a logo and a steeper price.

Guess what bro, those aren't genuine either even if they say so. If you look at the pics you'll notice that some don't have the htc logo
I have the genuine gray, I bought it when I've got the phone, but I'm curious about the quality of the ones they're selling for $8, that's it.
To be honest they look exactly the same but I would like a closer look. Sellers in Amazon claim that they're identical to the genuine with the exception of the logo.

I always stay away from unbranded stuff, but these called my attention because they look identical and there are more colors available

Don't put a 10cent case on a $600 phone.....spend the money on a genuine case.

I had an original dot view case that I purchased the week the M8 came out. I accidentally ripped the front from the back trying to stretch it to go over my glass screen protector. Back in July I purchased this one, http://www.ebay.com/itm/291190318285.
It doesn't say HTC and obviously an overseas knockoff. In my opinion it's much, much nicer than the OEM version. It will flip open all the way back easily and isn't near as springy. It also works with my .3mm glass screen protector, http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6100440084.html.

Don't use one of these cases for protection period. I can almost state with certainty that if you drop your phone on any kind of solid surface, it will definitely come flying out of these cases. In fact, if you clumsily open the case to fast the device will come flying out sometimes. That is in the original from Verizon. They offer some screen protection while in pockets or bags, but little to no drop protection & even in bags, the top & bottom of the device is not protected from scratches.

It was a little more than I remembered but it's 13$ http://www.ebay.com/itm/221503424128?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
The pictures are of mine.
Beyond that I agree with the post above mine, the dot view case is very functional as an accessory but as a protector it's useless it pops out so easily.

And I also agree with the two previous posts. I bout the official case back in June and two weeks ago, it fell on a carpeted space and the phone flew out of it as well as the corners that secure the phone popping off. Since I enjoyed the functionality of the case, I ordered the above since spending $40.00 for something HTC will not stand behind (I tried to get them to replace it but was told they would not) was not something I was willing to do again.
I will report back pnce I get it.

I had the fake one with logo and the real deal case I got from a Verizon store. Felt the fake with the logo was just as good. So went to return the real deal case at Verizon. Turns out I mistakenly packaged the fake one and returned that one to Verizon(honest mistake). I had no idea until later when I took my One out of my csndyshell case and popped it in the dot view....So while I didn't mean to do that, I ended up with the real deal case. But honestly the fake one closed better than the real one. That is how close they are.

I'm on the Dot View case fence. I really like the concept but the reviews I've read have kept me from picking one up. Does the flap "loosen up" for lack of a better term after using it over time. What I mean is when open and flipped to the back does it start loosing it's springness that people complain about. I like hearing that the generic's seem just as good as the one from htc. I may just have to pick one up at the lower price.

I had an authentic one, and then recently bought one of those non-authentic ones.
As a direct comparison, they both look the same, but the quality is different. particularly, the dots' translucent level is very uneven, so you'll get random brighter vs darker patches
on the authentic one, all dots have consistent translucency

OME or Knock-off, I wish that someone would come out with one that snaps on decently (even if it used double-sided tape) and maybe wrapped in leather. The plastic makes the phone feel so cheap! I had the original. I have since misplaced it since I got a cheap otterbox knock off for now. Does the job, but I do miss the DotView for the cool factor.

I have an OEM Dot View case and love it. I spent about $15 for it on Amazon. HTC also updated Dot View to add more functionality. And I was surprised yesterday by the Halloween animations. I'm very impressed by it and glad I got it.

SoI received my case today in the mail and here are my findings:
1. The case closes just as well as the OEM one I had.
2. The plastic case itself feels a bit thinner that the OEM one but I like that since I felt the OEM one was a bit too thick and added bulk to the phone.
The "Seams are not as smooth as the OEM but I am going to try and use a nail file and see if I can't fix that my self
4. The "Springiness" of the hinge that is in the OEM is not present in this case as it was in the OEM
5. The cover does not lay flat on the back of the case when opened all the way but I think that is just due to the design of the case.
6. The case seeme to snap onto the phone as well as the OEM case did.
To me, the $8.00 I spent on this case is totally worth it. As a matter of fact, I might order myself a second one to have different colors to chose from. If you think about it, for the price of one OEM you can get 6 of these in different colors and still have $2 and change left over!
I posted some pics of the case but it's hard to see any details.
Hope this helps you guys make a choice.
