This is what I use, http://www.quadlockcase.com/. You really need to have a dedicated case though, because you have to stick a lock piece to it.

This one is also good http://www.witrigs.com/universal-bicycle-mount-holder-for-smart-phone-black.

I use the Quadlock as well. I used it for my S4. Still looking for a case for my G4 to use with it. What case do you use?

I actually haven't bought a case for my G4 yet, but I think it's going to be this one, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VY35YR6?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00.

I have a similar TPU case, which Quadlock does not recommend for their universal adapter. I was wondering because I imagine it will be difficult getting it to hold well with the G4's curved back. Didn't know if you had already figured out a solution.

Any possible replacement back covers coming?

Just wondered if anyone has heard about possible third party back cover in the works, since it's relatively easy to take off. I would think some 3rd party vendors may jump on it. I hate this shiny fingerprint/scratch magnet. Phone would be perfect with a better back case. I hate cover/cases.
I'm digging the scratch resistance on the phone... so so much better than GNEX I came from. That thing would scratch if I looked at it too hard.
+1 for this..
I've been regularly camping Ebay for such an item but in vain
Better yet, a back cover with a wireless charging coil on it.

I gotta think someone will eventually bring something out. Should be a huge market for it.

Yeah, but the Verizon version ( ia hve already has the coil, right? Just hate the back cover on this thing. I have not tried the induction charging yet... guess I need to find a deal on the charger. Does anyone know if the quick charge feature still works with the wireless charging? I really dig how fast my phone charges. Would be a bummer if wireless was slow.

The thing is.. not everybody has the guts to open up the phone..
Unlike the S4.. back covers were readily available the moment the phone was out.

Probably not gonna happen unfortunately. It is not officially removable and the market for it wouldnt be that big.

They said the same int about the iPhone 4 when it first came out. Give it time. The key is going to be which versions will be produced. I'd like someone to maker one for each carrier so we can each have a chance to have a backup cover
http://www.etradesupply.com/lg/android-models/lg-g2-d800.html Looks like they have a back cover for the D800,
but not yet for the D802 http://www.etradesupply.com/lg/android-models/lg-g2-d802.html

Aren't the D800 ones compatible with the D802?
I only know the Verizon and Korean ones are the odd ones out..

D800 has third mic hole near the camera...D801 doesn't have this for sure. Not sure if D802 has it or not either

That explains the hole in my BodyGuardz skin..
The D802 definitely doesn't have that either.
We can still get the D800 back cover.. and find some ways to cover the hole.. But yea I'm looking for an ideal D802 white back cover.
Hopefully this will fit the sprint version. Figured the money I spend on a body wrap I can just use towards replacing the back cover when I'd resell the device.

phone case

Any one got correct phone cases of G2? With that 'rear button' I would think case manufacturers will have to rethink.

What do you mean, bro. I am sorry but I'm having a hard time understanding exactly what you mean.
I'll interpret it the way I understood it:
If the rear buttons fit? Depends on which model you have. If you have the Verizon model (and I assume not) it won't fit. If you have every other model, they should fit perfectly. For me, a case makes it a whole lot easier to find the buttons.

Back replacement

Hi,
Has anyone seen a back replacment combined with QuickWindow front?
For the int. ver D802
Maybe you'll find one on ebay.
I did search ebay. All l found were the kind that goes over the back. Adds thickness...
Never mind

You will have a hole in the up right corner where the stylus from f320 version is. See pictures on ebay.
Also the hole from audio jack is not completly round.
All in all i think will fit.
Thanks for the help!

Didn't buy that one. Got a cheap over-the-back cover+front door.
Just to get the feel for the front cover to see if I like it.
I don't.
Went back to bare naked phone as god intended it to be.

GOOQ Stand

Just received this. Good craftsmanship, heavy and stable.
Wow, that looks super convenient.. I'm actually thinking of ordering one myself after seeing this. What's your impression of it so far, would you recommend buying it?
I was all set to buy one of these then I read complaints on Amazon that there is no magnet to help hold the watch in place which leads to unreliable charging. Can anyone confirm is this indeed the case?

I have one of these GOOQ stands and it works very well - as good as the original . It has a magnet and the watch is held securely but in a much better position and using less desk space.

Been using it a while now, and it's great. The magnet is strong enough to keep the watch in place, no problem. One thing I recommend is to attach it to the desk with double-sided tape.
Btw, the watch charges pretty quick.

Probably not because of the pin locations, but there is another stand sold on Amazon or from the company site. I ordered one that should arrive this week.

Anyone try Phone Grips on Note 8? Opinions? Suggestions?

Anyone try one on a Note 8? I never actually used one on my own phone. Was testing out on my brother phone, not note 8. Seemed pretty handy and useful. I don't wanna waste $10-20 on one, if it's not good with Note. So trying to get opinions from people who used on Note 8.
Opinions? Suggestions? Please & thanks!

Here's pic of what some look like. I am sure you've seen people in public or you know use them. Google or amazon cell phone grips. They're pretty popular and useful. Better grip and kick stand as well.

Lol they ain't the most sexy, but useful. The grip is adjustable. Collapses in and pops out with ease. The circle ones atleast.

The strap ones look more comfortable but from what I read less durable.

Strap might be best bet. I say this because wireless charging might not work with circle 1s? Idk going to try and find out if the effects it.
I think you are right. Strap it is.

one of them looks like a door knob. I do get the value of functionality of these things but god does it make the phone look prehistoric/abominable .
I have an ultra thin phone ring with magnetic capabilities so that I can mount it in the car. 3mm thick. Works great. Stuck it onto a dbrand skin rather than an open back. I can not only wireless charge with it but also fit it in a VR headset.
Thought of using something like this before but decided not too when i realized it would be hard to write on my phone with the spen while placed on top of a table. The phone would just be wobbly since it wont be flat on the table
This 1 might be just right. Got funded 4Xs over goal.

The fingers on the first one tho. What the duck
You could try Loopy case. I use it on my Note 8 and absolutely love it. I have small hands but with this i can reach every corner of my phone. Had a few on my previous phones and im impressed. Daughter has pop sockets, other filmsy rings-straps and after trying them my opinion is that loop is way better.

You can buy just the loop no need to buy the whole case. There are many colors and variants avaliable. You have to go to accesories on their page.

Don't know, i am not using wireless charger. There are videos on youtube with loopy case + iPhone and charging works so i belive that it would work with note 8 also. If you test it let us know because i wanted to buy wireless charger but had doubts just like you.
