I've seen these on ebay - I like slimmer cases/pouches for carrying in the pocket - has anyone tried them?

I'm hoping that Beyza come out with one, I've got their Diamond one and it's perfect:
http://www.beyzacases.com/pd-htc-to...vsl16-vertical-leather-case-vintage-brown.cfm
My mates got the first one for his Touch Diamond 2 and my HTC hero doesn't fit inside it very well, too tight.
I've seen this as well - looks nice. It's a generic one though, so don't know how well it would fit. I'd much rather get a dedicated one (Beyza hopefully) though.

i really doubt they would be a good fit for the hero and ive heard that the hero rubs on the inside of them resulting a smudged look on the hero
I've got one similar to the second link, bought from the same seller HERE. My Hero fits nicely inside it and delivery from Hong Kong was quick.

Do you have a white Hero and if so does that pouch stain it at all? I've tried a couple of pouches that stained mine.
no sorry - it's a black G2.
I've just received a gel case with protector from here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180415010020
Really happy with it, and the screen protector is actually really really decent (i.e. fits the whole glass screen) and applied easily with only one tiny tiny mark that I can hardly notice. Not tested over the long term, but I think I paid 30p extra over the case to get this.
yeah ive got a gel case also, the screen protector extra is a must!!
together theyre great at protecting my phone and extremely durable
only thing with that is the phone wont fit in the dock with a case like this on. nice though.
do the cases scratch the back side?
Nah it doesn't scraTch it. I've had the gel case on my hero for around 3 months now and the back is in pristine condition
this is the case i use, its the best one i have had yet, it comes with a pretty decent screen protector aswell. Its the hardest, most rigid skin i've had but its still flexible enough that it won't crack or split and it much better quality than the flexishield ones (i've tried one of those aswell). My phone takes some serious hammer and it still looks brand new after 6 months! lol...which even surprises me.

There is a lot to choose from on the mobile fun website. Heres one like the beyza one
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/capdase-smart-pocket-for-htc-hero-p22635.htm
The Capdase Soft Jacket 2 Xpose is great.
finally got one of these ebay "soft silicon gel" transparent cases. looks ok, feels ok... no complaints really, I think it will protect my Hero just fine and isn't bulky. only 5$ including shipping
I'm using the Zagg invisibleSHIELD. I've used this on quite many of my phones, and it's great. Protects only against scratches, but on the other side, I've never been a phonecase guy, and scratches is my main phone problem. Or I'd rather say; WAS!
Capdase Smart Pocket
I should be getting my hero at the weekend thanks to an upgrade with t-mobile and I really like the look of the Capdase smart pocket for it.
I've had a look on mobilefun (linked above) and also found another site that lists it called vinko's treasures. Neither of them seem to have it in stock.
Does anyone know anywhere that stocks these cases or of any similar pouch cases that are designed to fit the hero?

I was using a gel case up to about 2 or 3 months ago, but it started to yellow quite badly. I stopped using it, and my Hero has been fine without it.

Why don't try something which is in good quality
I bought a case from ebay before, It is attractive because it sells in a lower price,
but seems I was unlucky, the case damage within about 2 month - loose sewing and can't fit to the charger hole
I try serveal online store, which I would highly recommend to you is PDair,
you may check this out:
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000759
They keep the quality well and the price can be acceptable
I bought the HTC case for now. Seems to protect the phone just fine if not the best fitting case going. I've found another site that stocks the Capdase one called MobiMega (can't post links just yet) and the price works out quite cheap too. Might have to get one ordered up to compare.
I was going to buy this Piel Frama case for my Rhodium, but I can't really see from the pictures whether I have access to the mini-USB or not. Anyone who can enlighten me? Can I use my headset while using this case?
Of course, I could upgrade to this wonderful case, but it is more expensive ordering from Spain, and it does look a lot more bulky than the classic model. EDIT: Ordering from Norway, it's around 400 NOK for the Classic case from the US vs close to 700 NOK for the iMagnum one from Spain.
Alternatively I have been looking at this PDair case which is a good deal cheaper, but I haven't found any reports on its durability and general usefulness yet. Did anyone here try it out? If so, is it any good?
While searching for the others I also found an aluminum exoskeleton of sorts and it does look cool I think. It doesn't add too much size and weight to the TP2, so it might be a contender as well. Again I ask for opinions
Hy
when i bought my TP2 i got a case very similar to the second one you post (this wanderful case)
i never used it.
it makes the Ppc huge. extremely unconfortable.
at the moment i am using a case which was designed for iphone or something like that.
it has a clip for the belt and a hook that goes on the jeans. it's basically like one of that sock but a bit better.
it's much slimmer, easy to access, secure and when i use the phone i don't have the case attached.
my suggestion is not to buy that cases, but go into some shop and try some up
ciao

That aluminum case looks like the tp2 would slide around in there. I've tried a few cases, but they all added too much bulk. Did find a cheap clear plastic one, and it's awesome. Looks great, fits better than any other ones, and adds hardly any bulk. CHeck this thread out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578050&highlight=clear+hard+case
This is what I have. It does add bulk to the phone but has saved my phone twice already.
http://www.amazon.com/Body-Glove-Elements-Rubberized-Tmobile/dp/B002JQRW68
Comes in 2 configurations, 1 for belt clip and other for pocket. You cannot have both as there is a notch at the back which is interchangeable depending on how you want to use the case.
* Another thing, I believe this case was designed more for the Touch Pro 2 for t-mobile as I don't have issues like the other reviewers had.
Tmob Version TP2 seems to be an Orphan amoung case makers
I am in the same boat trying to find a nice case that my phone does not have to be removed from to be used. In the past I went with Krusell cases and that was great for many years and different devices now the Krusell for the TP2 is known to be junk.
I would buy Piel Frama magnum from your post If I had the Reg Ver Tp2.
http://www.pielframa.com/htc-touch-pro-ii-imagnum-cases.htm
Unfortunately I have the USA T-mobile Version of the TP2 and this phone is turning out to be the bastard orphan amoung case makers.
I have narrowed it down to two cases and would like any opinions for my Tmob TP2

a small rant.........
With so many versions of the same model phone the waters are becoming murky. I wish they would just give them different Model Numbers and Names.
Thanks and Best of Luck with the search for the best case for our phones.

Just got my Touch pro2, with a htc pouch and htc case.
Case is fine, but I dislike to have to open it to get the phone out. Also, I can't use the usb while in the case, another deal breaker.
The pouch is better, but would like more protection.
What I found perfect is the slide case I got with my Touch pro. Sure one can get better protection, but considering how fast was to use the case and how small the case is, the phone looks like new without any scratches.
Any recommendations for such a case?
Last night i purchased ...
...the clear acrylic case from the AT&T store. It is a 2 piece case that snaps on AND has a touch sensitive screen protector. I do not like the plastic belt clips as I have bumped/snagged them on things and broken the clip. I prefer a holster type case (horizontal) as i carry another object directly on my side/hip.
Is it me or is everything for the tilt 2 expensive and HARD TO FIND or un available. I love silicon cases right, so I wanted to buy one for my new tilt 2, CANNOT FIND ONE ANYWHERE! I found one for a T-Mobile touch pro 2 but it was black, not fitted for my device, ugly and EXPENSIVE! I tried to look for a spare stylus just in case, on Ebay I found ONE for $15!!!!!!! Tried to get a spare battery cover just in case something happened to mine, CANNOT FIND ONE ANYWHERE! Not on ebay, amazon or anywhere. I ended up ordering the european touch pro's battery cover for $20!! Batteries for the tilt 2 are hard to come across and are as much as $50 for one. I have never had so much trouble finding accessories for a phone as popular as this that is used on 4 MAJOR carriers. The pure, which is only supported on At&t has silicon cases in any color for maximum $5. Battery backs for $5-7 and the other accessories are even cheaper. Does anyone have an explanation for this, sorry for my rage I just need to express my anger towards this predicament.

The issue stems from the fact that each carrier's version of the TP2 is just slightly different enough that many accessories will only work on one or two of them...so that presents the obvious challenge to manufacturers of trying to guess which models it's worth producing compatible accessories (like cases) for.
Boxwave does carry a line of silicone-like cases for the Tilt2, but I don't know if the styling will suit you.
I feel your pain. I want a rubber case for mine and I had thought I found one on ebay (it was the only one listed). I decided to send the seller a message just to make sure that it would fit a Tilt2. He said no, it was just for the TP2, EVEN THOUGH TILT2 WAS IN THE TITLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It does seem like everything is for the TP2 and not the Tilt2. But that's okay, I still love the phone.
Do you think the european touch pro 2 battery back will look okay on the tilt 2? I ordered it but haven't gotten it yet, but on the plus side the annoying PTT button wont be their (YAY FOR ME!). I hope it works..... I also hope my dream of silicon cases will come true
Eh, the PTT button is decidedly ungay. use Rhodium Keyboard Config to map it to do awesome **** like rotate screen on single click, disconnect data on double click, toggle wifi on triple, and bluetooth toggle on hold...
Really? Well, if I could find a Tilt 2 battery cover i'd use it. Otherwise not an option for me....
I'm quite sick of the whole situation myself
I totally feel your pain... and Hell, I live in L.A. where you'd think you should be able to find damn near anything on a shelf somewhere, but not a chance. Not even the AT&T stores here carry anything. If you have a Blackberry or an iPhone, then you have more choices than brains, but for anything HTC, good luck. And sorry, I'm not keen on shopping for some things online and accessories for this phone with so many variables is one of them. Someone is missing out on $$$
Okay, I have succeded a huge feat that only people's wild imaginations could think up. I have completed a challange so difficult, gorrillas and llamas will be terrified to death to think of the trouble and harshness I went through to complete this amazing acomplishment. This is no longer a figment of your imagination but a reality! I have found..... A SILICONE CASE FOR THE TOUCH PRO 2! I was searching in the Amazon for the mysterious silicone case when suddenly it popped out of no where! I found green, black, purple, pink, red, blue, and any other color of the rainbow. I was tempted to attack the deal and was just about to finish and proudly show my trophy when.... Amazon doesn't support paypal.... Oh well. Just a little over exaggeration. I did find them on amazon.com but no paypal support so ima have to wait
This site has silicone and rubberized for the tilt 2. http://www.talkietech.com/athtcti2ac.html
Where? The one I found was made for the t-mobile version and is $6.
If you're willing to do a little trimming (PTT button), then most of the Touch Pro 2 plastic, rubberized and silicone cases can be used.
TP2 Silicone case from a hong kong vendor on e-bay:
sorry I can't post link because I'm a new user.
OOh, put it as the title, put a space between every 3 letters or so. I dont have a ppt button anymore, gave it up for a new battery cover.
What accessories exist for the Jetstream?

I am not sure, however, after exploring the tablet software a little bit there is an awesome desktop dock application that shows the weather, the htc clock, and facebook updates. So I take it we will see a home dock in the near feature. I wish a car dock would come out, but because of its size and legality of videos playing while driving, we probably won't see one of those.
The only two accessories that I know of are:
HTC Scribe Pen - $80
Anti-Glare Screen Protector @ AT&T - $20

Actually, if you go to Amazon and search for HTC Puccini, a tpc case also shows up. No case, though....soon, I hope!

For anyone looking for decent case that fits the HTC Jetstream until cases that are made for this product reach the market. I have been using a Targus (Truss Leather Case / Stand) Model Number THZ07002US from Best Buy.
It’s a case that was made to fit an Acer ICONIA TAB A500 10.1 pad. It works as a cover and a stand that has three viewing angles in stand mode. It also has a slot for the styles pen but it’s a little bulky, doesn’t fit as tightly as I would like and it covers the back camera. All that said you can easily reach the on off switch, head phone jack, volume controls and even plug the unit in without taking the pad out of the case.
I still want to buy a case made for my unit that lets me use the back camera and that fits a little better but until they become available I needed some thing to protect my new overpriced but amazing Jetstream.
Looks like PDAir will be making some and rooCASE will have some nice ones ready October 19 on Amazon...they look nice.
scribe pen
is the scribe pen still coming free with the device if its bought in store? thanks
Yes, until October 15...
Pen Issues
I bought the unit in person last week, just before closing on my way home from work. The ATT store did not include the pen with my purchase and I forgot to ask for it. I went back in the am to get it and boy did it get interesting.
They started out with the story that the Pen only was included if you bought the data plan on a 2 year commitment?
I said really? Show me where it says that? I have seen the pen offered in EVERY AD as free with purchase for a limited time.
We went round and round and the finally relented but what a PIA....
ATT is truly clueless when it comes to it's own products, promotions etc.
Love the Jetstream, dont love the hoops you have to jump through.
How about NO ONE knowing when the LTE network is turning on?
Why am I paying for a data plan for something that is not ever available yet and has no timeline?
I passed on the data.
Have unlimited wifi tether on my rooted inspire so that's my dataplan.
Yeah I didnt think they were all coming with pens, hope mine has one with it ><
Didn't have that issue. I am WiFi only and they asked to register me and I said I didn't really need to because I was using it only on WiFi networks. Got the pen nonetheless.
I think you are supposed to have a data plan, but the advertising was hazy....and the ATT rep said without me asking that I got the pen. I really think it depends on the person.
ATT doesn't have good reception in my neck of the woods, so Sprint is my provider. like you, Tracy, I just tether.
Skinomi has screen protectors and skins. There is also a 25% coupon.

Coupon code is skinomi25 plus free shipping.
They are good skins. Apply like Zagg but no orange peel. They are slick.
Case/cover for Jetstream
Picked this case up on Amazon last week.
http://www.amazon.com/HTC-PUCCINI-S...H4TA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1316444249&sr=8-3
For 9.99 was not expecting much....Case is great....Soft and flexibile. Covers the back and all the corners and makes holding easy.
I recommend highly.
Tracy
Has anybody heard about a folio case that allows it to stand up, much like the Xoom case? It's really the only thing I find the device is missing.
Melkco says they are working on one. So does PDAir. RooCASE will have one ready mid-October....you can see the rooCASE on Amazon. PDAir on their own website, and I conducted Melkco on my own....
Looks like we will have to be patient. The gel case on Amazon works well for the time being....
found this new case on ebay - looks good - will order one and see how is it

Found this case on the HTC website. It is the official case. I assume it looks just lile the Flyer case..

Due to being in a rush, i got this case for $70 at WalMart
www.kensington.com/kensington/us/us/p/1615/K39336US/keyfolio™-bluetooth®-keyboard-case.aspx
Had to make some mods such as cutting a big hole for the camera and cutting some of the elastic for clear the volume and power buttons. Also cut some of the front 'frame' so the screen is fully visable.
IMPORTANT: Just be aware the two/three small holes on the top of the Jetstream are light sesons for the flash/camera, so the hole you cut for the camera must be big enough allow light access to those small holes. The BT keyboard works great with it too.
did u get the case?

I saw that yesterday. It also comes in pink but I would prefer a case that has a place for the scribe pen....:-\
Wanted to post a quick review here on this case that I got off Amazon for $10, URL below:
http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Fle...17-Packaging/dp/B007BH6X8I/ref=cm_cr-mr-title
Great case, it fits great, all of the ports are wide open and no problems getting the S-Pen, plugging in USB, microphone holes are clear, no problem with the headphone jack. Great case, I wish it had a little more grip on the sides and it'd be 6 stars. The buttons are entirely open, which makes them very easy to push yet would never activate in a pocket. Great case at any price, it's a steal at what it costs.
The back of it is a really soft feeling surface, almost like the 'rubber painted' phones that used to be common, and the sides around the screen are more of a glossy harder finish, but it's all one solid case, not molded etc, just finished differently.
I've used it for 3-4 days and have zero complaints, only wish it was a little more grippy on the sides. The piece of crap BoxWave case I had, the sides were really grippy, but the rest was terrible...
Got this case and its great. Better than the couple of others I tried (both purchased from the Bell store in Canada).

Yep, I wound up with four Note cases over a month period trying some things, and this is the one I use.
Have the AT&T Speck case. TOO SLIPPERY, and impossible to remove. Cheap $2 TPU, worth at least $1.50 . Boxwave Colorsplash, ****ty button actuation.
I too have this case in black (any other colors available?)
Been fantastic.

How long did it take for shipping to Canada? I'm glad I found this thread since all you are having positive experience... I didn't know buying a simple case was this hard.
OK. I'm trying to order this case from Canada. I went through Amazon.com registration but the system says the item can't be shipped to selected destination.
I went to Amazon.ca to search for this case but no success.
Any suggestion how I can get this case? Please help I'm a complete noob with amazon and ebay thingy.
im thinking of getting this case for my phone. anyone have any pics of it on a white note?
