Mine didn't come with a case ? I use Otterbox.
Mine came with a case, I think it's restricted to Europe or something like that. I wouldn't advise getting it, the material peels off and it starts to look awful. What's more, after a few months of very moderate use, it tore in two places (the thin parts near connectors and the power buttons). I got myself a Spigen and it's much better (apart from that the ir blaster is covered).
I'm in the UK but bought my M8 from Amazon Germany because it was cheaper, it came with a HTC branded, translucent grey, TPU case
I founded on amazon but went with a poetic instead
I'm not sure about you, but from where we came from, aliexpress is the way to go!

Anyone here bought the PO S511 case for hd2? Recommend to buy?
I have the S511.... Its perfect and not too expensive.... I've tried a couple of other cases but keep coming back to this one.... I had the same style case for my HD - I preferred the "side opening" book style case but you soon get used to the difference.

where u bought ur S511?
Ebay UK seller.
I've got one and am happy with it. Build quality and fit are good. This is the only case I've used for the HD2 so obviously can't compare it to anything else but I don't feel the need to find anything better.

thanks for sharing. how much u bought urs?
anyone knws where can i buy it online?
I have this case and I've not been impressed with it at all. The main problem with it is the two rails which tho phone slides into wrap around the front of the phone right where the on screen keyboard sits. This makes it very difficult to select keys which are close to the edges of the phone. (it also makes it difficult to use the outer most quick links)
Everytime I need to type any messages of any length I invariably end up taking the phone out of the case as its just too frustrating to use otherwise.
Also, I don't think this case would give little protection to the phone if it was dropped and landed on either of the top corners.

RayMie87..... why are you asking the same questions over and over again???? The link I gave you has the price and you can order online? There are a dozen other online outlets including Mobile Fun and of course Ebay too - just search on Google....???
If you have a £500 phone then investing £15 in a good case is a "good" investment..... now stop asking and go and buy.....

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.
Hi guys,
Recently purchased a new hd2 and wondered if there are any pull cases available for it, my google and xda searches have been inconclusive.
thanks

where you pull a strip up on the back of the case which lifts the phone out of the case slightly
I bought one from a seller on eBay.
I had to search 'HD2 case', and then find it by looking at the pictures, very few on there though.

A great Pull case
Here is a case i bought from ebay. It arrived today and after testing it for a couple of hours I am posting my positive comments and recommendations on it. First of all - it is the cheapest pull case of the "puller is fixed in hole on the side" type (see pictures). Costed me just 8$ (free shipping to Taiwan)
It may seem expensive given the fact that one can order a pull-case for just 2.07$ as in here. But after a sad experience i had with hard case i learned the lession with sad consequences. This case is well worth the price. Soft pleasant leather, soft inner velvet lining, and the pulling design is just brilliant. I used to have a conventional pull case with not fixed "puller tongue". Well, every time i was going to put the phone back into case i had to make sure that the tongue is on the right side (otherwise the phone would not dive till the end) - annoying, especially if you have to do this operation fast, "on the flight". With this design you do not look for the tongue neither while inserting, nor while pulling the phone out.
Too long a review for just a leather case... anyways, nice purchase it seems:
The photos are from ebay site.
P.S. Also they include a screen protector, but i doubt the quality of it, though haven't tried it yet (it seems 0.5 mm longer then needed).
P.S.2 I am by no means related to the seller, I just searched ebay for a leather case, sorted them by S&H price and scrolled down until i found the first one with this design.
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.

I have this one and its probably one of the nicer cases I've used.
35-60 bucks go to fortte.com they have good ones. And they customize it if u input directions. Like they'll add straps and stuff.

Hi. All.
I recently bought the Case-Mate Tough Case for HTC One M8 2014 - Black.
It is a really nice case but the volume button sticks and volume up doesn't really work.
I don't know if mine is a one off faulty one. But I haven't seen any other comments about this. I will be returning this. But can't find any other similar cases in stock.
I love their cases. bought several in the past for other phones. I never had the issue your speaking of. I would return it and get a replacement. I just ordered the clear barely there.
They have these for $22 on ebay but its coming soon on casemate website. Where did you get yours from? I really like how it looks but dont want to buy defective ones of ebay
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk
think i'll be returning mine also just noticed today that the volume up doesnt work that well.. hope i can find the box
Bought mine from mobilefun. It is a really nice case as well! I might buy again when they rectify the problem.
Does anybody else own this case? If so do you have this problem?
I have emailed Case-Mate to see what they say because I did really like this case.
Got a reply from Case-mate:
Dear Jason,
Thank you for your email.
I think this is the first message we’ve received about this. I’ve passed it to our manufacturing team to investigate and check the issue.
I’ll let you know when they get back to me.
Kind Regards,
Ross
