hey guys, i'm looking for a case for my BA as i purchased it brand new condition and want it to stay that way, cannot find any on ebay that are not too expensive, Also a screen protector. Do u know any good sellers who have BA accessories please? PM me,
cheers so much.
I'd imagine the screen protectors are the same for a few devices, maybe broaden the search? Or get a larger size and cut to fit. I had a few old Palm ones that I cut to fit on my BA.
Probably a similar thing for cases.
how did you cut them precise? is there a method and utensils used to do this best? When i have a spare digitizer its easy as i can trade around it, but how to do it and cut on an existing screen, how to measure it out? is there any tuts on this?
I just measured the sixe of the BA display with a ruler, and cut the difference off the slightly larger protector. No science or fancy tools, a ruler a pencil and a pair of scissors!
Do have a look on ebay. I got 2 Diamond mirrored protectors for 99 pence delivered. Quality is good, still using my first one 6 months later with no plans to change yet!
Awesome, I just got some Mirror ones off eBay too and cut for my BA and Elf.
Still need a case though, damn hard to find. Has to be clear plastic or silicone.
cheers.
I think you'll struggle with a plastic or silicone case for the BA due to it's slide design. Can't see a plastic case as it'll need to slide too!
Personally I think a belt case or a slip case would be best, ie something you put your BA into and remove when in use.
yea thanks, I got some more mirrored protectors to cut up, and no luck on a case, I will be looking for a pouch if anyone knows a model that actually fits the bigazz pda!
I ended up finding an awesome case for my BA, it is a leather booklet case I purchased online. will upload pics soon when i charge my camera!
i think you will still get dings when u drop it while using..
some notorious ppl i know (not to mention who), they will knock your mobile off ur handphone while you are using.. LOL.. on purpose but they will act like they accidentally tripped..

Hello all,
I am just wondering if anyone knows of good cases for either the 2200/2400 extended batteries.. preferably one that includes pockets for credit card/cash too.. carrying a wallet around is kinda troublesome! thanks
Case?
I squeezed the 2s with a 2200amp battery into a book open type PDair leather case.
It's not completely fitted but better than others.
Cheers,
Sena and EB cases will fit
sena fits well just that it doesnt sit in the cradle too wel..
i actually did manage the squeeze teh 2400 into a brando hard case... can barely move the keyboard though... and the touch screen functionality is almost zero because of the tight fit.. haha not very practical at all.
the eb slipper case http://www.ebcases.com/Detail.bok?no=3301 looks quite good because it actually covers the bottom of the casing.
I used my XDA 1 with the issue O2 case and the thing I notice between that case and the likes of the nice brando rigid casing is that there are still quite a few bits of the unit that are exposed so if you drop it, bits of your PDA will still get damaged if it happens to fall wrong.
I know, it happened to me on more than one occasion.
from what I can see on the meagre picture on the EB case site, the bottom and sides are covered and the belt clip looks quite nice as well. no accidental clip releases there I think.
could someone tell me if the EB case has the camera button exposed for use, and is there a hole for the camera on this case? it's a bit ambiguous.
ok so i want a armor case, screen cover for the phone
and i only found this one so far
http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=17676

anyone know of any others??
let me know, thanks - randy

thats for the herald not the wing... as silly as it soundsi use the lil mirror thingy time to time..
I have this one:
http://www.boxwave.com/products/armorcase/armor-case-t-mobile-wing_2710.htm
It is awesome, very sturdy and you can still use the phone's buttons. It has the proper cutout for the mirror and also opens in the correct direction to make the keyboard usable with the case still on (unlike some of the cheaper ones).
Build quality is tight and the neoprene liner holds the phone firmly in the case so it won't drop out. The case is light but adds a little bulk to the phone, it's still the slimmest option for pocket carry and could take a hard shot from a turnstyle or counter with no problem.
Definitely cheaper than a replacement lcd!
Hope that helps =)

They do look similar but I can't tell if the cheaper one has a protective plexiglass window or just an opening...
invisibleSHIELD
I bought one of those invisibleSHIELD thingies yesterday for my Wing.
I have one for my iPod Tocuh and it hasn't gotten a single scratch on it!!!
http://www.invisibleshield.com/smartphone/t-mobile/wing.php
Here's a link to get half price invisible shields

$12 for the wing full-body is a decent deal, I'm just not sure how it will stick to the rubberized case of the wing and it does not give any crush/crack protection.
Either way I'm probably gonna get a screen protector
the one on daydeal does have a screen cover i emailed and asked. lol
hahaha, you gotta ask these days
Give it a shot, it's probably made by the same factory
wouldn't the protective cover over the screen keep you from using the touchscreen?

yes thats why its a flip open case
for eazy access to the screen
in your logic a armor case would also prevent some one from opening the phone to the keyboard
same thing it flips open
So did it come yet? I'm curious to hear how the build quality/tightness of lockup etc. to see if I paid an extra $14 for a boxwave sticker =)
im having issues with my creditcard and inturn paypal also..
havnt resolved it yet so i am with out a case
with that said my friend got the plastic body case for the phone and it was pretty much feeling lol
i have this case, nice fit, the matte metal is pretty slippery and it has slipped out of my hands a couple of times. one time the case popped open when it hit the pavement. also, when you drop it, the case will get silver nicks all over it. it is pretty strong, but will deform a little when you drop it, you can kinda bend and reshape the case to good as new. case also dents if it lands squarely on a corner.

Does anybody know if there'll be a pouch for the diamond 2 like for the diamond? Or simply will the Diamond pouch fit the diamond 2?
the diamond 1 pouch does not fit the d2
Don't think there is an official pouch, pdair have quite a few different ones available tho.
G
If you look at the Tracy & Matt unboxing video, its shows an HTC Pouch in the box. However, everyone so far has said it doesn't come in the box. Conclusion? I think there is/will be one, but it will a separate purchase like the with the D1.
I've been looking at the Beyza pouch for the Samsung Pixon. The Pixon has identical size stats to the D2 (well its 1mm wider), so if its just a pouch you are after, that may fit the bill.
Pdair are now selling a vertical pouch without belt clip, just ordered one myself.

I was looking at that too. I just want something slim and simple to not add bulk so it can slip in a pocket. Can you let us know what you think when it arrives?

Not sure how long delivery will take but will do when I get it.
Horizontal Pouch, HTC Brand
I bought this one: http://www.negrielectronics.com/touch-diamond-leather-pouch-p-2424.html
It is a Velcro closure and the phone does not fit well. further, it does not have a hard side to protect the touch screen. I assume this is a general case by HTC. I bought this, but I will probably continue to use the case from my Trinity, the fit is the same but this at least has some protection on the sides.
In a word, Disappointed. I am not sure why they skipped the case, and then fail to offer a decent one at launch time.
http://www.noreve.com/index.php
Looks like Noreve are going to do one too. Expensive, but nice, classy cases. See upcoming products at bottom of web page.
Asia model comes with those pouch similiar to original Touch Pro.
http://www.eprice.com.tw/mobile/talk/?prod_id=3306&tid=4110889
Just be aware of these pouches
I did not get one with this or the TD1 ... with the TD1, the original one went on stock very quickly and I bought it for almost £10!
While the fitting was slim and snug, I couldn't help thinking that the tight fit had potentially caused light scratches on the rear (front I was not bothered as it had the protector on)
On the day I sold it, I did a very intensive clean on it and noticed there were indeed scratches that corrosponded with the pouch.
It only takes a small bit to be trapped in the pouch - you then slide the TD1 in and that bit goes down with it
I still don't know however what I want for my TD1, at the moment, I am using the original Ipod velour case that was bundled with I think the original 20gb ipods!

Yes, I prefer this pouch too. Unfortunately the HTC designation of that pouch is not mentioned on their website (i.e. the HTC PO S390 as for the D1), so a purchase seems to be tricky....
I just bought this http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360151845729 since i want as thin as possible.
This isn't going to appeal to everyone since they aren't bargin basement cheap but I've just got one of these cases delivered this morning. I went for Nappa cowhide black B on the outside and red suede leather for the lining with no belt clip attached and hidden magnet closure. The case itself looks fantastic, stiching quality is excellent (not a loose piece of thread visible anywhere) and overall protection where its needed the most (on the screen) is hard to beat with the wrap over flap on the front. It took a couple of weeks from order to delivery, but for a case which is made to your own specification, right down to having your name embossed on the front, that isn't bad. If you want a quality product made to you want it, and personalised, give them a go, I'd definitely recommend them. They do a range of different styles so if a fold over horizontal pouch isn't to your liking have a look at the other options.
Nice, i just orderd one too
Nice cases, not cheap although they look very nice...
I have found my HTC Kaiser case that came with phone and I'll use that until something better comes along.

Got the case yesterday, it adds quite a bit of bulk so if you're looking for a really slim fit then look elsewhere, other than that it is of good quality and has a nice professional look about it so is ideal for work. It also offers lots of protection for the device.

@galvinize: is it possible to take the belt clip off? doesnt look like in promo pictures - but in yours.
edit: could you please take a picture with the front up - or is it just a sliding case?
I just recently got my 3vo and i need a case for it, never been a big fan of the otterboxes (just seem too bulky). I need a case that looks good and gives some protection.. i have a 2 year old that loves to play with my phone.. But im not sure what to get.. I dont work in construction or take my phone on any extreme sports, but i do forget my phone on my lap in the car all the time and go to get out and boom it hits the ground.. so i do need some protection..
So far this is the one im likeing

If you have a Best Buy near you, you can go there an try on some cases. They carry the one you posted too.
I had that case for my Evo 4G and I liked it a lot. Very nice case. The ones at Best Buy are named Pt, but they are made ny Seidio for Best Buy. Same exact case, just a different name stamped on it.

The casemate tough case is pretty nice. It's not super big like the defender but its not slim either. But it looks nice, fits great and protects well. I got mine off ebay for about 22 bucks new. Well worth it. I also have the seidio active but prefer the tough case and haven't taken it off for the last 2 weeks or so except to clean it.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
I'm still waiting for the Ballistic Case for the Evo 3D to make its appearance on their website; waiting on the HC version.
The CaseMate's look pretty good as well. I've seen good reviews for the Tough Case that they make.
However, SLM is correct. Go try out the Platinum cases at Best Buy before you take the plunge with the Seidio case. It costs $34.99 at Best Buy for the same Seidio one you're interested in.
I'll tell you from experience that I have the Platinum case (a.k.a. a rebranded version of the Seido Active case), and it's pretty sweet! Rumor has it that Best Buy will also be getting the Seidio 1900 mAh batteries as well, but they'll too be rebranded as Platinum. The case I got is excellent and slimmer than the Otterbox cases. It comes in two pieces. You have a silicone sleeve with a felt-like interior that wraps around the phone, and then you have a strong plastic skeleton that wraps around the sleeve. Although the case is great, there are a few things that I don't like about it. For one, if you keep your phone in your pocket like me, you'll start to notice pocket lint collect around the edges of the case. Also, it's sometimes hard to press buttons around the edges of the phone. For example, I use Swype, and when I have to manually type in a word instead of swiping, it can be difficult pressing letters such as P or A. I'll accidentally hit the O or S keys. But it does offer damn good protection. I've gotten so accustomed to the case that it's just weird to hold the phone without it. The case also protects the dual cameras in the back. I have no clue why HTC decided to have the cameras stick out, but this case offers protection for them. As far as my pocket lint issue goes, I think I might invest in a holster for the phone. I'm not sure if Best Buy sells the Platinum branded holster that is compatible with the Active case, but I'll look sometime this week and let you know. I use my phone as my primary music player, whether it's mp3s stored on the phone, FM radio, or Internet radio, and I think that having it on my hip instead of my pocket will be a little bit more convenient for me.
As far as cases go, I've only seen the Platinum case with the black skeleton being sold at Best Buy. Seido sells their Active case with different colored skeletons, but the sleeve still remains black. I'm kinda disappointed Best Buy didn't sell the burgundy skeleton. I think it would've looked nice on this phone (I'm a fan of dark red colors.). If you want something more rugged, Seido sells on their website the Surface case (a hard two piece plastic shell available with or without a kickstand) and the Convert case. If you plan on drunkenly abusing your phone or chunking your phone at the wall after a pissed off conversation, I recommend the Convert case. It's like a combination of the Active and Surface cases. The inner layer is the Surface case, and then it's wrapped with a silicone sleeve and skeleton like the Active case. It also has a detachable cover for the rear cameras. To top it all off, the Convert case comes with a precision-cut screen guard. I don't really need all that thickness and protection, but I would put money down that the Convert case holds up to its name. If you plan on getting an extended battery though, make sure you get an extended case since the regular cases won't fit with the extended battery door.
Anyway, I hope this helps. Good luck shopping for the right case!
I bought a silicon case with the wave. Protects camera, wich had to be protected since it sticks out. Also protects the other buttons and seems to fit well...
Its only 1,50 dollar so thats not a bad deal.
The TPU case is really awesome. It's on ebay and really cheap! Just search ebay for "evo 3d tpu case"
Only one downside, almost every 3vo owner has it
Red Body Glove case
I have the Body Glove case in red, and I like it a lot. It is a nice looking case.
I have no issues with mine unlike some others, but check out the pictures here:

Sounds good, let us know what you decide. Bhambalek said they only have the black skeleton shell at his Best Buy. My local Best Buy only had them in white. Maybe yours will have both so you'll have options. Good luck!

Just unpacked and put on my Seidio Active with holster, got the saphire blue from Versio Mobile on Amazon, 34.49 shipped.
Very nice case, fits very snug, like the inner skin and outer skeleton, holster is very solid. Only complaint, that the camera glass is not protected; probably order a carbon skin so I can throw some protection on that glass. Had a TPU on her since day one and glad I upgraded to this one.

I also like and recommend the TPU Skin Cover Phone Case for HTC Evo 3D http://www.amazon.com/TPU-Cases-Flexible-Sprint-Retail-Packaging/dp/B0053NWDO0
I have the Sedio Surface case and am happy with it. Decent protection and it has a kickstand also.
I posted a review on sprintusers, but dont know the policy here about linking to other forums.
i picked up the PT Cruiser case yesterday, i was able to get the black and white one that i liked.. Now i first off the bat i really like the look and feel of the case, but i dont like how the phone fits in the rubber sleeve, its not a real snug fit. So i can see pocket lint and other things easily able to get inbetween the phone and the rubber side, but other then that i like it so far.. Its still a lil early to make a final decision on the case..
But again thanks for everyones responces, i have to say this site really does rock!!
one word: otterbox defender. Ok so that was 2 words.
I have four requirements:
(1) Decent protection all around except for screen.
(2) Protection for the camera.
(3) Must lie flat and not wobble when typing w/phone on table.
(4) Must not make the phone significantly fatter (otterbox is OUT).
Anyone have any suggestions? I actually like the gel case from Sprint but it doesn't protect the camera.
Mike
i like seidio case the best
i've tried all sorts of cases and I keep coming back to my casemate tough case, can't go wrong with that one. It's not that bulky and offers just the right amount of protection without having your phone inside a vault like the defender.
Seidio Active or Platinum Cruiser. I had the Seidio on my Evo 4G for a year. Get the holster from Seidio to prevent the lint issue and clip it inside of your pocket. Something that nobody mentioned is that the rubber bezel allows you to set the phone face down without the screen contacting. That also makes it slip resistant and prevents an unattended ringing phone from vibrating off of the desk. Not too much bulk either.

Hello
Have any of you tried the TRIDENT AEGIS case for the ATRIX 4G. It surely looks great and functional, but I'm not sure abut the build quality as it can be docked along with the phone. Please post your review and pictures
Sure!
Just ordered from their site, and look very promising, JUS THE WAY I WAS EXPECTING A CASE TO BE for the Atrix! (And let me tell you I own at least 6 cases each one 30+ f*** bucks)
Once I get it delivered, will upload a modest review and some pictures attached in HD dock and Lapdock, (´cause of course, it won´t fit car dock)
My primary case is an Active Case from Seidio (such a fantastic combo) along with its Holster Clip. However, taking my Atrix out of the case for car dock navigation or simply hd dock is a pain to the a-....
OK! I remember! (this mojitos won´t help that out... however, mmmmm!) The point of this case for me is to get it fit in the holster clip from seidio active without the case for sure, using trident´s.
Will let you know!
ok, let us know, i just felt in love with the nice "man solid appeal"of the case
Think it twice
Hey guys,
As you know I ordered this case some time ago, and just received it. And you know what? I´m not in the mood to make a review of it, at the second attempt to open the flap to engage the media/dock mode, one of the strings just broke up, the bottom one, so easy (and I´m a very careful person regarding these matters) without forcing it at all or aplying so much pressure.
So if you want to try for yourself, go for it BUT PLEASE, excercise the most delicate usage if don´t wanna go my way.
So sad...
trident aegis
First, this case is on sale at Amazon for $10 including shipping!!
I am impressed with the quality and feel. This origionally sold for around $35 and you get what you pay for. It comes with a screen protector (a dry one) also a covering for the camera lens. I have a plastic plug for the earphone jack I got off ebay for $1.
This is a hard polycarbonite case, not the soft flimsy type, and it is thin yet sturdy and feels and looks great. So far I love it.
If you place your thumb on the center back logo when opening, it opens easily.
If I find any problems or any disappointments I'll post here. But for $10 you can't go wrong.
I'm sorry to hear about your bad experince with the case but so glad you are telling about.
There seems to be mixed thoughts on the case. Decided to get the seidio surface as I only hear positive feedback on this.
CK
Yeah mine broke at the hinge after a couple of weeks too.
best case
I've had almost every case made for the Atrix. The Aegis is by far definitely my favorite because it is small, neat, nice materials, feels good, looks great. Yes the hinge is a bit delicate, but if you CAREFULLY open the case you can avoid breaking the hinge. And even if you break it you can still use the case depending on how bad it breaks. The case is made from a hard polycarbonite material, not a soft rubbery silicone which I got very tired of over time. These cases are on sale on Amazon for $10, down from the regular $30.....cheap. I bought 2 of them just in case. Comes with a dry screen protector and a cleaning micro fiber cloth. Also comes with a camera lens cover but that added fog to the picture when using the flash so I don't use that. This case put new life into my Atrix so I am happy for the time being. I bought silicon covers for the ports off Ebay for a few bucks to keep out dust. Anyway just my opinion on things.
