Lesson learned, it looks like it was for the HTC Touch Pro 2. Dangit....Just wanted to share with you guys to make sure you get one that fits your particular model.
There seems to be a problem with vendors understanding the T-Mo TP2 has a different form factor than the Euro version. I am returning my cradle for the same reason. Be careful when buying an accessory that it will fit your US model. First time I have seen this problem with phones. Your TP2 is a special device ... I like mine very much. Pity that we have to be the ones to tell them their products don't fit our phones...

Where did you get it?
same here, got one from a seller in HK for 6 bucks shipped to US
doesn't fit.
anyone wants the TP2 case made for non tmobile tp2 can send me a PM, pay for shipping and it is yours.

this is the one i got.
It's because the T-Mobile "Touch Pro 2" isn't really a Touch Pro 2 like you can get from everywhere else, it's a slightly-altered version.
Thank T-Mobile. This way, you can get all your accessories direct from them! How great will that be! It really is better for everyone.

i almost bought that one, but i didn't because we don't have the front camera, so that hole made me suspicious.
only T-mobile have the entire phone remodeled... sort of
while Sprint/Telus versions widened the bottom end where they added a 3.5mm jack, so some of the rubber cases won't fit
However I just recently ordered a slide-in pouch from pdair which SHOULD work on ALL TP2s... because it's just it... a pouch... no fitting needed, just enough space to slide the phone in... or any other thing that has the same dimension... sort of
this one by the way:

I hate those case for slide up phones. The phone is already big as it is. With that case it will add weight and size to it.
I decided to use my phone just the way it is and get a hip case (EASECASE ) and call it a day. I will try and be VERY careful not to drop it.
i just bought a gel case from tmobile for 12 bucks. it adds a couple mm to the overal size of the device but it feels good in the hands and isnt slippery like the phone with out it. the only color they had was black and its not on they're website, only in the stores right now. i am quiet pleased with it.

Man Thanks alot for being the guinea pig, SORRY no intent to insult you but I almost bought the pdair case. They are nice and alot of people have said good things about them. I was one click away from purchasing the case for my T-mobile touch pro 2 and i stumbled upon your thread. Its a shame that we are so limited to what we can put this beast in. I currently have my procilla ( thats what I call her lol) in my old sprint mogul ppc 6700 case.

Lucky bastard! That thing is awful.
I found this iPhone case on DealExtreme. Cost me only $1.68, shipping included. Cheap one to use in the gym. Couldn't fit any better, has fleece on the inside and feels overall hundred times better than the original one. I strongly recommend it even though it has a really ugly logo on it.
iphone? don't use such foul language in these forums
I would of given it free but it went in the bin after about a week.
i've got a new unopened one you can havw for £10 + p+p. let me know

Oh! again. How many times I have told that one who care for his things cares for himself. This time I am not going to suggest good things replacement. Rather as you dont care loose this HD also and buy new one you get free case.

No! dont look at my HD case or ever imagine I am going to suggest good things now on.

I picked up one of THESE on ebay.
I prefer this style to the velvety black original one that came with the phone. It's also a bit thicker and the rib around it adds some drop tolerance to the phone when it's in the case.
This is a lot like the one that came with my Elf when I got that.

I rather like the case provided. It just works. My only gripe is that it does attract fluff and stuff.
Having said that, I am awaiting HTC's silicon case. I'll be comparing the two, then making my mind up which to stick with.
Arrr, lost mine too. Actually quite liked it. Does anyone want to sell me theirs cheaply? Not £10 though, I'll get HTCs official case for that.
£5 inc p&p for an as new condition?

Hi,
I have a spare original if you still need one.
Pm Me if interested.
Nogs
pay for the postage and buy me a pint and ill send you mine
although i cant imagine why anyone would want the damn awful thing, offers no protection, looks cheap and the stylus falls out everytime you remove the HD from it
but mines sat here on the shelf if you want it.
first to reply in here gets it as i dont want shed loads of pm's saying "is it still available"!!!! lol
I use the original case to take the fingerprints off the screen!!!! it works perfect!!!!
Does anyone still have one of these? Willing to pay pp and a bit extra.
Hi,
does any of you spotted quality cases/shells for the HTC Titan x310e somewhere?
Contacted Case-Mate to know if the ones for the Sensation XL work for the Titan but they said no. (Probably because of the round border on the Android ones).
Thanks.

Any suggestion from US/Canada?

Does the job but there is a small problem with charging the phone
The case is so thick that the mini USB plug is too short, which means every time you want to charge your phone you have to take it out of the case or take the phone out of its original case (like the way getting access to battery/sim)... and loose the signal.
I like this one. Inquired if one is in the pipeline for the Titan.

Weird ... because I got not at all this problem ; all is ok with plug-in micro-USB slot , I never take the Titan off the case since I installed it
Are you sure it's the same case ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320749362244
But I have to cut the thin part to access easily to sound ans camera buttons (on the right size), very easy to do :
And now I'm totally satisfied with this case , good protection, and not thick at all
In general, I bought Vaja or Piel Frama (a lot more expensive !), and even if this one is not of the same quality (it's not leather) it does perfectly the job. Don't know if I'll change for one of those when they made a case for Titan ...
I found a good leather horizontal one from "eden park" brand. I will post a photo later from my PC.

Inquired PowerSkin. It is not in the make of yet, but are considering it. One is already available for the HTC Sensation, but won't fit the Titan.
I found these by PDAir ... they also sold product on amazon. It seems really nice but I can't find any review. People on the net seems to complain a lot about their shipping which can take up to 20 days. Sorry I am not allow to post link yet. But do a search on Amazon or google PDAir and they have several products.
I bought a Noreve HTC Titan Tradition leather case (http://www.noreve.com/langue/en/product/HTC_Titan_Tradition_leather_case.html)

Can someone please post more photos of their Titans with Cases? Thanks.
I am in the ATL and got a chance to run by Case-Mate's headquarters today. Got some good info. they have altered all of their Galaxy S2 cases to have 1 cutout on the top and they are now universal for the AT&T model and the European model. They have the POP cases and Tough cases ready to go. The website was not updated yet though.
I grabbed a Tough Case today. I was surprised to see it is actually thinner than the Pop and the Otterbox Commuter (they had one for comparison). It has nice rounded edges and great feel in the hand. I have tried the AGP, Ballistic, Pop and Belkin and none of them worked for me. This one seems to hit the spot. I will try and post pics later.

Guys, just call them on their 800 #. They have a whole team of CSRs that will process your order right away. I went into the call center and they handled my order for me. That is the reason for my post. They have hem available now with the large cutout on top. All their GS2 cases are now modified. I saw black and white Pop cases modified, Tough Cases modified and the Barely Theres are already ok.
I like it better than the Otterbox for this phone. The rest of my family all have Defenders for their IP4s. I am a huge Otterbox fan. I tried the Tough for my Inspire and IP4 and did not like it nearly as much as the Commuters for both of those phones. The GS2 Tough is a different story. I like it much better than the Commuter. Its thinner and has better grip. Fit is awesome.
I am on the road traveling and cannot take any pics because the SGS2 is my only camera. I guess I could takes pics of just the case an upload them.
pics of just the case will do! thanks!
I just called and also did the live chat online and both people told me that they won't be available until early November .

Here are a few pics. The case is awesome. I have been using it on the phone while traveling and its working out great. Had a co-worker comment on the fell of it when I handed him my phone. Buttons are easier to press than without the case. The case is fairly hard to install since it is so form fitting. Surprisingly it does not add much bulk.
To the poster above that contacted them. Sorry but you got an uninformed rep. The only way we figured this out was by physically getting the cases from their warehouse. I ask them to bring out the cases so I could see if I could alter them to make them work with my phone. To her surprise and mine, they already were set up to work for the AT&T versions. Pics prove it below and I did not touch this case. Hopefully you can tell. No reason to lie.

I talked to a rep and I also talked to a person in live chat, so I got two of them that are uninformed. I also sent them an email again making sure. I want to make sure I am sent the right one the first time. I am going to email them again. Do you mind if I use your picture for reference in my email?
My GF got a pink "Pop!" and it was for international version so she called and got the same sort of response. That they don't and won't have any cases except the ones that are at the AT&T store because they signed an exclusivity agreement to only sell the cases in stores or some BS. Bottom line is that they fed her the same thing, no cases for the AT&T SGS2 for a while. Whatever. Case looks good though bud, I might get one of those when they do come out to replace my Pop! as it is just a little big.
I don't mind if you use my pic at all. I will say after reading abacon15's post, I am beginning to wonder if I was the one that had the uninformed rep. She may have sold me a case she was not supposed to sell.
One more thing, my case came in the normal green and clear Case-Mate box. It was not AT&T branded packaging. No screen protector though. Not sure if it should have had one of those. I haven't looked on the website.

I get my upgrade in December and am looking to get the Galaxy S 2. I am using a Tough Case on my Inspire and love it. It has proven itself to as an extremely good case. I had it drop and hit concrete 5 times and the only thing it did was put a crack in the polycarbonate hardshell right next to the flash. I also work with tires all day and I would need this case for protection.

Ok, the automated response is ridiculous. We have confirmation from a guy who was actually at their home office and they still wanna play the automated/rehearsed response crap. That alone would make me buy the international version and be done with it.

Has anyone gotten a look at the Best Buy case that comes free with the Note pre-order?
I was wondering if there is a screen protector included. I'm going to assume there is none unless someone has seen one.
Assuming it's the same as the international (which I believe it is), I don't see a screen protector.

Thanks for the link, that was the worst review ever, but it was good to see what I'm getting. It looks very similar to the pics on BB. I really want a rugged case(i.e. Ballistic, Trident, Otterbox). But I'll take what I can get.

Best Buy rep
I stopped by best buy and asked the rep if the case would support NFC she looked at me like a deer in headlights and had no idea what NFC was she got another rep and asked him and he said NFC is on the Note but does not work yet I I told him I knew that already and wanted to know if the free case worked with NFC since the antenna for it is on the back of the case that comes with it he had no idea and asked his manager 15mins later the manager came out and said he had no idea yet he would think it would but could not say for sure since they aren't here yet he tried to find more info on his computer but found nothing so Best Buy doesn't even know yet the free case isn't turning out to be that much of a plus anymore.
The fact it's a flip case basically eliminated any interest I might have had in the BB deal for the Note. I can understand having a flip case for a tablet....but for a phone, I would find it as a hassle. I'm still gonna settle for a regular case, most likely a TPU one.

We got no info on the actual flip case from corporate. It was a deal struck with samsung and bby corporate and has nothing to do with the retail level associates. Right now they are sitting in a warehouse waiting for distribution. Im sure they will be in before release. If they are there by wednesday I can give everyone a definite answer. After that Im on vacation
I doubt these were made for the ATT model. If they are the ones that were already made, it will not work as the nfc is not in the back like the ATT model.
One the bright side it was free and nfc is not yet enabled.

The fact it's a flip case basically eliminated any interest I might have had in the BB deal for the Note. I can understand having a flip case for a tablet....but for a phone, I would find it as a hassle. I'm still gonna settle for a regular case, most likely a TPU one.

Same here. Flip case with a pen device just screams of the original Palm PDA devices.
No way I can bring myself to use one of those again.
Best Bbuy Mobile
The people at Best Buy Mobile are way beter than the people at Best Buy they let me know my Note was in although the free Flip case was not they still could not tell me if it has the NFC contacts on it since they have not seen them but were very nice even though I have been pestering them for days guess I just have to wait and see don't know if I should get a case off internet that has the NFC contacts or wait till the free flip case is in

+1 on that. punctuation is not poison. You can safely use it!
The best buy case does in fact support nfc. However I tried to download Google wallet and it said its not a supported device :-( I knew this would happen but still sad. But yes I love my note and the case beat buy gave me with it!

It is a hassle with the flip case, i ordered one off amazon and the cover gets in the way alot and it quite flimsy

I played with one at AT&T for about 20 minutes today and I really didn't like the flip case on it. It felt very cheap. I've played with another one from someone's international Note and it was much sturdier. I hope the one Best Buy gives out is more solid, but I got a feeling its not.

What kind of feeling?

Felt like cheap cardboard to me. Like I could have easily bent or snapped it. The one I played with for the international note had hard plastic and looked nice as well. Hopefully the best buy one will be like the international one and not the cheap crap I saw at the AT&T store.
I decided to make a dedicated thread, as in two other threads a few people were interested. Currently, what looks to be the best fitting tempered glass screen protector is available only in Japan. In both black and white. I have no clue on what price we can get, but I will leave this topic up for a week, and if we can get enough people interested, I will contact the manufacturer and attempt to set a deal.
Some links of the screen protector.

I'm interested assuming it actually fits the way that it should.
Edit: it looks like the price on their shop is around 32$ USD if you convert the currency. That's not bad if it works plus it looks nice. Its too bad iloome never came around and made one just like this.
I'd register an interest, but (1) I'd like to know whether it actually works - all we have to go on so far is the advertising material, and (2) I'm based in the UK, so a shipped-to-US deal doesn't help me.
If somebody on here could try one and confirm that it works, and they would ship to the UK (or ideally worldwide, given the global nature of this forum) then I'd certainly buy one.

No one is able to get just one, and if they ship to US we can forward to UK no problem. Currently, unless we find someone who lives in Japan and has an N6, willing to buy one to review it.. We have to trust the advertised video. However, I have never been disappointed with any products coming from Japan.. The Chinese knock-off.. well I wouldn't trust, although someone purchased one and will write a review once it arrives.
Just read the Chinese knock off is plastic, too bad I ordered it already...very disappointed
In for black one. We need this.

That sux.. Do let us know more when you receive it though.
I'm interested in this. When would the trigger be for the order? After we reach XX interests?
I'd be in for one possibly two
I'm hoping this will work out and not be sh*tty because that would make a lot of people unhappy. I wonder if there is a way they can send a sample over for someone to test if we are doing a large order.

I will contact the company and see what we need to move forward with this and would be happy to hand over the money+logistics handling to any established member.
One more interested, both black and white.
I am interested too. Looks great!
