Hi guyz! now I have a 0.30 mm thick tempered glass and works perfectly with dot view case...
I just ordered a better one which is 0,33 mm and I'm not sure it works....
does anyone have a 0.33 glass which works with the case
I'm surprised your 0.30 mm one works well with it. The best ones to go for are the 0.15 mm ones to be safe.

lol really? never had problems with 0.3 ones....for everyone's information it works great....
I have a .33mm that didn't fit well at all with an OEM dot view case but fits great with my knockoff (http://www.ebay.com/itm/291190318285)

thank you for your answer, I was looking for this, exactly. so double tap works? device locks well when you close the flip? I know that is not fully closed, but I don't care about it

Yep it works just fine. I like it better than the OEM even when I didn't have a glass protector. The OEM version is too springy and hard to hold open. This "knockoff" has more of a hinge and easily lays flat when folding it to the back and it's not near as springy. It does close by itself though but not as snappy as the OEM.

well, ok, I have a knockoff too (very well made, it has also all htc signs) and I'm about to order the OEM one......should I do it? If you have the oem black one, can you tell me if is really black or grey?

My OEM was grey. I broke it trying to stretch the cover to fit over my glass protector. Basically ripped the front off the back. Whoops. It's the same grey color as my knockoff. My knockoff does not have an HTC logo on it. Your call on how the case will fit and if you'll like it. Maybe see if a local sprint/verizon/att/t-mobile store has them in stock so you can look at or maybe even try on your phone?
For me I like my generic dot view case much more than the OEM. Though I can't do a real comparison since I ripped it apart and finally threw it away a couple days ago.

lol here in italy att, tmo, vzw and sprint are like american dreams....nothing like that here, htc are unknown phones (Here people think that samsung created android) and while you can find every type of cover for s5/note3 and even the old pop touch samsung, htc cases are impossible to find. so I have to buy online and risk.
and...back to thread, I don't know if I should put the 0.33 glass instead of the 0.3 I have now......
and if I can ask a suggestion, I'm looking for an open back cover (a bumper borderline would be perfect, but the aluminum one [I have 2 of em] doesn't protect the back.....so i throw them away)
ok, for anyone info, dot view works perfectly with 0.33 tampered glass, which is I think the highest working thickness
Anyone have a link for the knock off they are buying that works ok with a .30+ glass? I got two different knock off's from ebay and neither of them close properly with the iLoome glass screen protector. One I got is a generic and the other is a HTC clone (with logos etc).

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.

Well this is 10x cheaper than LGs one, just but it for the heck of it, is it a lot crappier than the original?
It really upsets me that there is no unofficial quick window case for Verizon's version.

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?
Thank you,

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.

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.
I bought this case for my LG D802 Asian, and fits perfect, the size is like my Galaxy S2 + Otterbox, less bulky than an Otter.
I like the black mate and the phone doesn´t slip so easy like when it doesn´t have the case

The second picture is with the phone near the cover, to have an idea, the G2 with this cover is near the same width of my Galaxy S2 with Otter Box and the depth is exactly the same as my S2 with Otter, the lenght is larger because the phone is larger

I bought it at ebay at this dealer:
http://www.ebay.com/usr/cellcase4u
My experience was great, my cover arrived to Mexico in 6 days, very fast.
Personally I think that any cover that fits G2 T-Mobile, AT&T or Sprint will fit D802.
The customer support of INCIPIO is horrible, I dont understand why because the case is nice, not bulky like Otterbox, I think is enough to protect the phone.
Try to check at ebay or ask directly to INCIPIO where to buy the DUALPRO T- MOBILE variant, the models I saw are colored, personally I prefer black, but is matter of taste!
Okay... thanks.. will contact the seller then

Yikes, seems like the rubber portion attracts lots of dust/lint (top/bottom) of your pics. Maybe I should get the Spigen instead to avoid that.

It attacts not lot of dust, in the picture seems worse than really it is, if you pass your hand you will clean it easy.
Personally I dont like the Spigen because its bigger and the hole in the flash is so small that could affect the beam and personally I like more the black mate back of Incipio.

Good point about the flash. I read about it earlier somewhere on this forum, but I didn't think much of it. If the flash isn't properly dispersed, it may very well affect picture quality.
I'm planning on getting the white dual pro to match my white G2 that I'll be ordering soon. Hopefully the grey rubber bottom doesn't show dust/lint as much. I'm mainly concerned not with it being there, but that it might constantly be getting on my hands and may make the case slightly difficult to hold (I had a TPU silicon case for an iPod Touch one time and it was terrible with lint).
Do you think there's enough room on the sides of the case to have a tempered glass screen protector there without experiencing any lifting?

Most of the case is plastic and from my point of view this case is optimal because it does not slip from my hands.
About tempered glass, totally useless in phones with Gorilla Glass and total waste of money, for one side, this type of screen (Gorilla glass) never get an scratch with normal use, for the other this kind of screen degrades the clarity of the G2's wonderfull screen.
I have a Galaxy S2 for two year and still I see one scratch, of course maybe you will found something if you look at the microscope hehehe.... but from the normal eye sight, there is nothing and this is what matter most.

Yea, most likely one doesn't need a screen protector, but even with gorilla glass, I would feel more comfortable with one on there. Never know when I may drop the phone by accident and any additional protection helps. I don't particularly like to see any scratches on my screens, so I know it would bother me if there was on there.
Also, I'd probably get a higher resale value for keeping it in better condition!
I just noticed that Best Buy has what appears to be the HTC OEM translucent hard shell case for $14.99. Search for SKU 5641313. Anyone have experience with it? I just ordered, but looks like it'll be over a week 'til delivery.
EDIT:
Case arrived. See here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52146070&postcount=7
If it's similar to the M7 one that I had it's a nice, minimal case (and it came with a free HTC screen protector as well!)
I take it this is what you're on about?
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=258366&phone=259879
Yes, I have one.
Barely notice it's there, which is great, but a few days down the line, the back of the case is already showing some scratches.
Does have a slight lip on the front to protect the screen face-down, though, which is good.
I don't think it'll last long until I cave in and get a DotView to replace it.
I was planning to buy this since I had a similar one for my One X. Then I found this Yesoo case. I got the gray one and really like it. Mine came without the branding on the back too which is nice.

I got this one, and its pretty great..adds little by way of size, the back is clear for the beauty of the phone stands out!
Can we get pictures of this case from anyone that owns it? And wondering how it looks

Bringing this thread back on-topic.
I received my case today and threw it on real quick. I usually don't use cases, so this is for occasions (like on vacation) when I want a little protection from scratches.
This appears to be a first-party case from HTC, with the Product Name on the box listed as HTC HC C942 Hard Shell. It is translucent, as opposed to transparent, so on my Amber Gold M8 the color is definitely muted. It has HTC branding located directly over where HTC is on the back of the phone. The overall feel is good; exact match to the M8's curves with no seams that can be felt. It isn't slippery, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it soft touch.
Looks good! I have both the hoc translucent case and the yesoo case on the way! We'll see which one I like better

I ordered once cause it was cheap on eBay and I had one on my old M7. Will be interesting to see what it's like against the case that came with the M8 (which I quite like even though it's a little grippy when going into your pocket).
Nice to see some photos of it, gives me confidence in the product. Have you tried the SP that came with it?

I didn't even look at the screen protector, because I've been sold on glass screen protectors for years now. (Although I haven't purchased one for the M8 yet.)
It's hard to say for certain how the screen protector is without installing it, but laying it on the phone, it looks like it covers edge to edge vertically, but not horizontally, leaving maybe .2mm on each side.
I have a Zagg glass sp and I have a kaysone case which is same fit as yesoo case and it fits perfectly the screen bevlels in so it's not going to be an issue ,at least not with zagg
Yes, I have one copy.

Possibly so it doesn't catch on other cases
Why the heck didn't the Sprint store have this when I bought my M8? They tried to sell me on some clunky $50 Otterbox or something. Ended up ordering a Diztronic TPU case for $10 from Amazon, but I hate how it hides how nice the phone looks. Nonetheless, I've have great luck with Diztronic stuff.

OK, got my one of these. First impressions, perfect fit - like to the mm. Thin but offers nice protection to the phone. Do I prefer it to the one that came with it in the box? I don't know. I prefer the fact I can get to the ports easily BUT I quite liked the fact the one in the box covered the ports so dust won't get in.
SP was easy to fit, and fits well, but it's fingerprint magnet - SO much more so than the screen naked. At least it's covered, though...
I'll give it a few days but might go back to the original case as it offers more grip

After reviewing several different version of Dot View Case Clone, I ordered mine at Amazon for $10 here http://amzn.to/1uCKago
This one stated that it is using the same material as the HTC version else some other version uses leather front cover with cut out holes which I'm worried that swiping on it wont be as smooth.
Anyone had the leather front cover version? They have some nice colors especially the gold color for my gold M8.

Got this case yesterday. I have a OEM dot view case as well that I broke trying to stretch it. This cover isn't quite as thick/sturdy but other than that I can barely tell a difference between the two. It mentions on the eBay item that it's "Dot View Flip Leather Case" though none of it seems leather to me. I did pull on it a bit to get it to fit on my glass screen protector and it sits almost flush. Better than the OEM case.

That looks pretty good. Does it function perfectly as well? What did you do with your broken one? If the actual cover piece is intact, I may be interested in taking it off your hands, haha. I really wish the dot view case covered the right edge of the phone...

Yeah it works well. Not as snappy closing and folds over easier than the OEM which I like. I wish they made one that didn't automatically close though. I was hopping the "leather" feature would be the folding side and it would lay open if I wanted it to. OH well. It folds more flat than the original at least.
I have my old one. Basically the cover tore off the back when trying to stretch it to fit over my glass screen protector. I then glued it into a cheap case I got off Amazon and it fit decent but wasn't perfect and the view through the case just seemed off. Here's a couple pictures of my MacGyver'd case.

Got this case yesterday. I have a OEM dot view case as well that I broke trying to stretch it. This cover isn't quite as thick/sturdy but other than that I can barely tell a difference between the two. It mentions on the eBay item that it's "Dot View Flip Leather Case" though none of it seems leather to me. I did pull on it a bit to get it to fit on my glass screen protector and it sits almost flush. Better than the OEM case.

What size screen protector do you have? A .3mm?

Yep. This one, http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6100440084.html . Did save me last weekend though. I have a decent chip on the bottom right edge of it. I don't remember dropping my phone but I was at a party and far from sober.

That's exactly what my idea was. I wanted to find a way to incorporate the cover into my current case which provides much more coverage than the Dot View does.
Might have to try this out
I like my pure-gear case, but I've always been intrigued by the dot view...
Never buy the knockoff, the quality sucks. You get what you pay.

After reviewing several different version of Dot View Case Clone, I ordered mine at Amazon for $10 here http://amzn.to/1uCKago
This one stated that it is using the same material as the HTC version else some other version uses leather front cover with cut out holes which I'm worried that swiping on it wont be as smooth.
Anyone had the leather front cover version? They have some nice colors especially the gold color for my gold M8.

Received mine today, I didn't own the OEM version so am unable to compare but this version seems just fine and works exactly like the original version.
I bought one from miniseller in ebay. I got it today only they sent me a case that isn't a dot view and it is for the m7

I got one for about $15 off eBay.. It has htc logos on it but almost certainly is a knock off. Sad part is that it doesn't close all the way with my tempered glass screen protector so it's kind of a waste of money. I've seen some posts that say it will close better after about a week but I tend to doubt it.
Quality seems fine and about the same as the authentic ones.

I got a knockoff from ebay as well. Though it doesn't say htc anywhere on it. IMO it's way better than the OEM one. The hinge allows the cover to lay flatter when opened than the OEM one I have and it does work fine with my .33mm glass screen protector. It did seem to break in as at first it would lay almost flat but not quite. Now it lays flat. No complaints!

Thanks... I'll put it back on for a few days and see if it improves. I have a iloome glass protector on. Fingers crossed
I bought this one from amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LXYN6ZI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It definitely isn't as nice a quality as the OEM Dot View but it does fold flatter against the back. It seems to function perfectly but does not lay perfectly flat as I have a .33 tempered glass screen protector. I'm actually think about hitting it wit a heat gun to help it out a little bit.
I would never have bought the OEM case at the price they were charging for it, but this knock off was certainly worth the $9.94 I spent on it.
I have the same case as poster above me it was surprising better than the knockoff I bought in the U.S which the inside start to peel, didn't have htc logo on it and was more money.

I paid $12.99 on eBay for a knock off case. I paid the extra 3 bucks because it had the HTC logo on front and on the back. So far it's fine.
Someone just posted a disturbing issue with the dot view case magnet leaving an 'imprint' on the screen. It's in the accessories section.
Should we start worrying about this from our dot view cases?

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...

@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.

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.
