Thanks alot man, just bought me a 3 pack for less than $7.00. NICE......compared to what i would have had to have paid through other companies
For the British amongst us, eBay UK also has some low cost ones here: Touch HD Magnetic Stylus

Dude, thanks for that link. I'd lost one of my styli in a car accident (long story) and so I was thinking about going to HTC direct. Just bought two from that UK eBay seller for £2.49 each with free shipping
Happy as a pig in poo.
I miss-placed the one that comes in the phone a few weeks back, not sure where or how(it was after I got the new case). forgot that a spare is provided in the box and was wondering where I can get a replacement if I can't find the lost one, I'm in the uk so might order 1 or 2 from ashcan's link.
Source for good quality stylus?
Anybody know a good source to buy a higher quality stylus than the stuff sold on Ebay? I bought a 5 pack on Ebay and they are all broken, they are made very cheap and break very easily. Also my Noreve case tends to pull out the stylus each time you remove the phone so I tend to loose some that way too I am looking for the non-magnetic version of the stylus. Thanks.

Brando Stylus?
Whatever you do don't buy Brando! Worse than Ebay, at least the cheap Ebay stuff lasts a couple days, few weeks. Brando is even cheaper quality. I just got 3 for which I paid allot of money from Brando Hong Kong, the top is very cheap plastic and they are are breaking/falling apart, the whole stylus very cheaply built.

A stylus for use in the car with SatNav
There's a universal tethered stylus on eBay for use with touch-screen mobiles or SatNavs in cars.:
Tethered Stylus
I've got one and it is good quality.

I think you will find that the so-called "Non-Magnetic" versions of the Touch HD stylus on eBay and elsewhere are actually inferior copies that unlike the orignals, have slightly enlarged plastic tops.
Yes, they do stay in the slot as they are a tight fit but it wasn't deliberate by design. It's to stop them shooting back out as the magnets have been fitted in reversed polarity
Incidenatlly I'd beware of buying ANY stylus on eBay thats sold in quantity as it usually indcates a cheap quality. Also, ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS check an eBay seller's feedback before buying. The top listed seller currently selling cheap HD Touch stylus copies on eBay has thousands of negative feedbacks yet people are STILL buying them ???
Mobile Brando...
I've found good ones on EBAY...
At first I was looking for non-magnetic so that my Noreve case would not pull them each time I remove the phone to put it in my car mount. But so far what I purchased on Ebay (non-magnetic 5 pack) and 3 Pack Brando Hong Kong (magnetic) has been very poor quality junk! I am just trying to buy original stylus now but who knows where to get those from since nobody selling these things tell you whether they are original HTC or cheap junk. I think I saw a 3 pack on expansys (mobileplanet) and I am going to assume those are good original quality but they are out of stock right now.

Did you in fact check the feedback of the eBayers before buying these stylus? I've found that 99.9% of the time if an eBay seller is selling poor quality junk it is reflected in the seller's feedback.
Dont just look at the headline feedback percentage figure - if its not 100% check it more thoroughly. It amazing that a seller can in fact be showing 99.9% positive feedback but due to large volume sales can have thousands of negative feedbacks.
Just as FYI, I researched all of the sellers and this was the only site I found who were selling original HTC styli AND had them in stock in the United States:
http://www.expansys-usa.com/d.aspx?i=173044
I received the package today and they look exactly like the original ones, i.e. it has the small black tip, exact fitting plastic cap with small rectangular "bump" on the side, the magnet, etc. Yes they're expensive, but what can you do...
I guess I'm just dense, but why won't a ATT Tilt 2, AKA Touch Pro 2 fit in the various cases that the TMobile Touch Pro 2 fit in?
For example the Piel Frama Touch Pro 2 case says that the T Mobile Touch Pro 2 will not fit in it.
So then I wonder, will the ATT Tilt 2 fit in the case from Piel Frama?
Does anyone know if the ATT Tilt 2 will fit in the case offered by Noreve?
And, finally, is it that the device really won't fit or is it that perhaps the charger or some other connection does not work with the different devices, while the device is in the case?
part answer
I think I can partly answer my own question and perhaps phrase it a bit differently. I did some comparrison Image searching in google(why didn't I do that first) and note that the T Mobile TP 2 has the buttons embedded a bit higher up on the lower part of the phone.
So I guess I could rephrase the question to be this. I see that the unbranded TP 2 is all in black where as the ATT has sort of a chrome ring bezel.
So are the buttons and placements of the device other than the reset button the same on the ATT as on the HTC unbranded?
Or said yet another way, will a ATT TP 2 work in any case designed for the unbranded TP 2?
From what I can tell they all have little differences. But I can tell you that I just purchased a really rugged case made by BodyGlove for my AT&T Tilt 2 and it was made for TP2, At&t, Sprint and Verizon models. http://store.accstation.com/chtctouccoc9.html The phone fits very nice and secure but the PTT button is covered but that's ok, I don't use it.
If you look HERE it will show you the size diff in the different Rhod versions

Ya, been using this case for a few days now and I love it. Yes it does add a little bulk but it more than makes up for it in protection. Also if it slips out of your hand you where not even trying to hold on to it.
I ordered a 3 pack of these bad boys from amazon; $13 shipped for 3 is much better than boxwave's $16 shipped for one...now we need to see if they fit properly!
http://www.amazon.com/Fosmon®-Premium-Quality-T-Mobile-Ballpoint/dp/B003752IWI
I will report back once they arrive =)
Can't guarantee those will, but I CAN guarantee that these will. The ORA Stylus from Expansys-USA and for less than $12 (sans shipping).
Boxwave tried to poo-poo these when I asked how come a single boxwave pen/stylus cost as much as a three-pack of these.
I have the three-pack for my Sprint Touch Pro2. First batch were defective, and even before I said anything Expansys-USA admitted they had sent me defective ones and replaced them.
Never an issue since.
Please write back and say if these fit your Sprint (CDMA) Touch Pro2 and how well they work. Always need new styli.
Did you recieve the stylus yet???
Is it a PERFECT fit?

I bought a 3 pack. Yes, they fit just like the originals. They are very slightly different when inserted, but it is not noticeable. They work just like the OEM; when I remove the stylus the device unlocks.
yup they fit Tmobile tp2 perfectly and for roughly $4 delivered each boxwave can suck it sideways!
any pics of how they fit externally? you said there is a minimal difference with the OEM stylus..
fosmon fits tp2 just fine
i finally got my 3 pack today. took 2 weeks as the first shipment to me was lost. In short these guys are exactly the same length as the original however the steel barrel is of a smaller diameter. Looks like they simply used a high quality pen cartridge and cut it down to fit, then added the plastic tips at both ends. 3 for $14 I cant *****. I would recom recommend.
Will this stylus fit AT&T Tilt2? Probably it will, just want to be sure
I bought these from Expansys USA and they fit like a charm. Even before I was able to complain that the pens weren't working, I received an email from Expansys USA that they had sent me defective pens and replaced them with no questions asked.
Stylus fits fine. It's a great thing to have a pen when you need one.
Thanks! Needed to know this. Just bought a stylus for my Tmobile TP2, but it was the sprint branded one...lets just say I had to "modify" it to make it work. Now I can get three that look right for less than the $21 shipped that HTC charges for their 3 pack!
Wow, awesome find! Just ordered mine, can't wait...!
Fits my VzW TP2, but...
The Fosman metal stylus fit my VzW TP2, but it initially caused some weird behavior. I have stylus lock engaged so my device will not wake up, etc., with stylus. The device ignored the lock with the Fosman stylus! Finally got it working by unloading and reloading device lock.
Worse still, the ink dried up after only a couple of weeks and literally less than 20 words written. Since that was the only reason to go with the Fosman, I have gone back to the OEM stylus. (Yes, I know I got a 3-pack, but what good is a pen that dries up after a couple of uses?) I should have thought about it -- look how small the barrel is for any ink reservoir ...
Where'd you buy it?

I bought mine at Expansys-USA and they replaced it saying that they had shipped me a defective set. No questions asked and the new set don't dry up.
I got that same pack on Amazon for 9.99 + 3 for shipping the fit and work great.
http://www.amazon.com/Fosmon®-Premium-Quality-T-Mobile-Ballpoint/dp/B003752IWI
You can also order them from tmobile's site for 9.99 + 6 shipping and taxes.
http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/addons/Accessories/Default.aspx?categorycode=24
Do they fit in the tilt 2?
Just got mine in from Amazon.com for 9.99 + 3 for shipping as well. They fit great and still work w/ stylus sensor and writes well. We'll see how long the ink lasts...
anyone know where i could buy a stylus with ball point for the normal touch pro2 on ebay? because hard to purchase when in in Australia. Thanks
I made my own out of a htc stylus some melted plastic a file and a black paint marker. I just ordered the fosmon one thanx everyone for letting me know this one works.
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.

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.
I am on the prowl for a case for my upcoming Samsung Note. I am having difficulty finding (of course) any cases that are made specifically for the AT&T Version.
Do we have any confirmation that the International Version and the AT&T LTE Version are in anyway different? Mic Placement, Etc?
What are all of you buying for a case?
I bought a case from Amazon for 5 bucks for international note. If it doesn't work then I am out only 5 bucks.

From what I understand, device dimensions are the same, but no one has yet been able to say whether or not MIC placement is identical.
From the pics i have seen the Mic looks like it is in the same place but not sure about the 3 mm jack
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I emailed SGP and one other case manufacturer to see if they are the exact same.
The microphone thing worries me
Edit: just compared two back shot pictures of the note. One international and one AT&T. The 3.5mm jack is in the same position.
i ordered an aluminum bumper from ebay. it should be here soon. ill update everyone when i get my note!
for aluminum bumpers, i dont see a problem with mic placement. or the 3mm jack. you can just mod them easily.
anyway, speck a couple of cases out. i have used the candyshells on my iphone for about 2 years now and have dropped it about a billion times. the phone is in good condition still so they work good!

As far as we have been told, the International and 4G LTE versions are identical in shape. The internals and weight are different, but cosmetically, they are almost identical. The only noticeable difference is the home button. The international version has a physical click home button but the AT&T version has a capacitance home button. This does not effect the cases shape. You can see images of the case we will have in stock (later this week) here:
Amazon ASIN: B0075WQ118 (introductory sale price of $4.95)
You should expect to see other colors (White, Clear, Blue, Red, Purple) in this style online in a matter of days. The Gloss and Matte versions will follow later next week. Let me know if you have any questions about this case.

Thanks...I see your case shows the AT&T Version with the capacitive buttons....guess that means your case should fit like a glove. I went ahead and ordered the white one figuring that if I didn't like it...i'd only be out 8 bucks.
On another note...(no pun intended).. I currently have an IPhone 4s and use a Credit card case like the one in the attached images... Since I've been an Iphone user since the very first one, I'm having difficulty finding decent cases for other phones (IE...Note).
Are there any cases like this out there for the Note?
TIA!
What are the holes on the bottom right of the phone? It is located on the backside of the phone directly across the speaker phone. I see some cases for the N7000 having the slots opened for it and some just covers it. Also most pictures of the International Galaxy Note does not have the holes there.. is this ATT only?
Thank you for clarifying that. Makes more sense, now I can shop with ease.
Cimo, thanks for the info. About to order this case right now.
Real quick, I don't suppose if you know if this will work with ProClip's vehicle mount for the note? I know they don't have much room for give so I was planning on going with no case on the phone . . . but I like the looks of this case and the deal is pretty hard to beat.
I just bought this one from Elago.
http://www.amazon.com/elago-Slim-Ca..._1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1328640739&sr=1-3
I always used Elago with my iPhone 4. They're not the best at protection, but they're the thinnest short of a decal skin. For me, that's the most important thing on a big phone.
I bought the white, because I have the white note, but maybe I'll buy another color too later, or return the white. Hope it's not that tight, like the Amazon reviewer implies, but I don't plan on removing it ever.
This one seems to be thin enough too: http://www.amazon.com/elago-Handmad..._1_9?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1328640739&sr=1-9
I was thinking about getting the SGP because it covers the power and volume buttons.
http://www.amazon.com/SGP-Samsung-G...XD94/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328645558&sr=8-1
They also have a padded thinner case like the one mentioned above but it is quite expensive. I really want to get a aluminum bumper but $50+ seems too much for protection that don't even cover the rear.

And finally, does the Gloss and S-Line cases both feel about the same?
EDIT: Nevermind. I scrolled through your product pages and was able to find that purple case.
Here is mine. Just received it today. It's a G4-slim fit. It's a hard case that is super thin and has a rubbery non -slip feel to it.
