Is the AT&T Tilt 2 and the Sprint Touch Pro 2 battery covers the same? I lost my battery cover for my tilt 2 and found a Sprint tp 2 cover for sale. Will it fit?
the Sprint tp 2 cover wont fit cause sprint touch pro 2's dont have the ptt button under the volume slider.

It's nothing to do with the PTT button - the GSM (AT&T) and CDMA (Sprint) phones are different sizes, so the battery covers are not interchangeable.
I bought one of these for my Tilt2, and it fits perfectly. No PTT button, however, and no clear plastic in the camera opening.
Sprint and Verizon are interchangable.
Battery and cover. Believe me, I tried yesterday.
The battery is the same, the battery cover is too, just a different design than VZW, but who cares.

battery covers ARE interchangeable.
So, i couldnt wait for you guys to answer about the battery cover and already pulled the trigger on the battery cover. It turns out, it does fit. and fits perfectly aside from 2 things. The bottom (usb port) area doesnt seal up completely and that the stylus can be pushed in more than it should be.
Other than that, it fits perfectly. I know theres no PPT anymore, but I honestly havnt found a need for it yet.
Here are the pictures if you guys dont believe me:

Good info. Based on your findings, these guys should update their specs.
I still wouldn't use the Sprint battery cover on my Tilt2, but your photos indicate that the chassis is the same size.

I guess while using your right hand to navigate the G1, use the stylus, in your left hand to scratch that itch on your back with it??
Do not try this while driving
I believe the stylus is made specifically for the G1 and iphone. its not the same ones that other pressure sensitive phones have.
There are stylus' out there with the electrons needed for capactive touch screens to work (iPhone, G1, etc). I'm not entirely sure how they work, I assume it would need a battery... but maybe not.

Well it does say that the stylus works on the iPhine, too...

And if you don't want the combo, but are getting g1 stuff, coupon code htcg1access saved me $17.70 off $58.91 of G1 stuff! It's like 30% off!
UPDATE AFTER RECEIVING THIS!!!!
Stylus DOES WORK!!! It does work with more force lol
To grag an icon or let alone drag it across the screen it iffy. Rubber on the screen. You can imagine.
Silicone "case" is ok. Could have been snugger.
Hard case it good once is it all clicked in but it makes the phone a whole lot bulkier. If you buy the clip seperately, it can be attached to your belt.
Chargers, can't have enough
Screen protectors, love them
So for the money, yeah its worth the package.
****, seriously? It doesn't work? Do you have an iPhone to test it on?
I had my mother order this because she can't stand not using a stylus. Looks like it's getting sent back.

I tried the "Stylus" again today. It does work with more force.
Hard to drag or slide across the screen though.
It's rubber that gives way. A pencils earaser form type.
does the hard case fit snuggly all around? i had one that i sent back because the bottom left side edge doesn't clip onto anything and came up a bit.
the whole set is in 3 pcs.
The back part
The screen part
and the keys part
the keys part locks into the back part, tightly
the screen part locks onto the the sliding part of the phone
What does the camera/speaker hole look like? I hope it's not a heart... >_<
It is, how else are you gonna get the lens and mic not covered lol
I thought I would be like the T-Mobile hard case:

Ok I think I've done my due diligence in that I've searched the forums high and low for a rubberized case that is actually designed for the Tilt 2... I've found tons of cases but not a single one that had the cutout for the PTT button on the AT&T. And I've found countless listings either on eBay or other e-tailers that claim to be for all models or even specifically for the AT&T but not a single one actually shows a case with the PTT cutout.
I'm at a loss - can these things really not exist?!?!
(bump) Anyone? I've checked even the praetorian case - it covers the PTT button as well...
Merge redundant thread
Searching is the key
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524059
Some links are outdated but most of store links work
honestly i've been in the same spot, did not find any silicon case with the ptt cutout ended up settling with the praetorian case and could not be happier, ptt is still accessible just need some time to get used to, and its still easy to pull out of my pocket on my jeans
Searching, and indeed reading, are in fact the key... But alas - I did both.. And I read the link you posted, ad nauseum (as it is referenced here many times over).
I should make clear both that I have an AT&T (and thus a PTT button) - and that I use the PTT button (for voice command) frequently.
A quote, from the first link (the praetorian case): "The PTT button is indeed covered"
Of the 3 eBay links, only the last works... And the title says all you need to know - "BLACK RUBBERIZED CASE FOR HTC TMOBILE TOUCH PRO 2 PHONE". As we all know the HTC version is markedly different and notably missing the PTT button. The picture, as well, shows the side cutout not including a cutaway for the PTT button.
And the Global Phone Company link also has the title "Black Gel Skin Cover Snap-On Case Front and Back for HTC Touch Pro 2 T-MOBILE VERSION ONLY (NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SPRINT AND VERIZON HTC TOUCH PRO2 VERSION) Black Gel Skin Cover Snap-On Case Front and Back for HTC Touch Pro 2 T-MOBILE VERSION ONLY" - again one with an AT&T phone need not read any further.
So I plead again - please does anybody know of a case that actually has the PTT cutout button?

Thanks - I figured I'd end up giving the Praetorian case a shot... I take it you just push the PTT button through the rubber, more or less?
ATT Praetorian Crystal Slip
I just took some quick snaps of my ATT Praetorian Crystal Slip for you.
ITS NOT A REAL BUTTON!
A little hard to see but there is a cutout INTERNALLY for the PTT button. However on the outside it is smooth so u cant feel the button like the others. They suck and didn't actually change/make a new case for ATT even tho its advertised. It helps for making it easier to hit it through the rubber now but still sad =(

This is for the international version of the gnote.
Speaker, s pen, camera and led cut outs are identical.
Bottom tabs are in perfect positions
Top and the sides the tabs were a little wide and a bit off on position. with a exacto knife i was able to trim excess off the tabs so it lined up to snap in. Some of the tabs ended up a lot smaller than the stock size but still had that click sound when i put it on. Once it was on it was pretty secure and snug. Compared to the stock cover. its a bit easier to take off and had a good feel to it. its also thicker and kinda have a less slippery feel.
I am pretty satisfied with the product build. It was nicely crafted. Only issue is the red looks more pink to me than red and it was made for the international version.
Hows the signal compare to the stock? Aluminum and other metals can block radio waves. It is a real problem, not sure how you could avoid it with that cover.
Thanks im gonna do the same I ordered 2 doors. the carbon and a white leather one.. Thanks for the run down i fig it would be something simple to make these work.
IT'S NOT PINK BRO IT'S "CRIMSON" LOL nice work though man!

Ive havent noticed any diffrence personally with signal loss using this back cover and from what ive read on the international forum there were very minimal to none when using cover

Is this as thin as the original back cover?

its thicker. i'd say original + half of original is the thickness. enough to sink the camera lens down a bit.
Im hoping I can get all my battery covers to work like yours. Do you have before and after pics of the cuts you made? I got 4 international covers after they pretty much confirmed the size and shape were identical. I had no idea they would make the tabs different I have a really nice carbon fiber patterned one that feels like leather that I can't get to fit right. I just dont want to go and start cutting tabs and mess one up and it not fit properly
TIA
I hope someone sells these for the AT&T Note. I ordered one of these and tried to cut it to fit but ended up with the cover not properly holding/latching on half of one side.
Just wondering did you detach the nfc part of the original and put it on the red one?
I know this seems odd, but does anyone here have an old Samsung Infuse car dock that they could test and see if the Optimus G will work in? According to the dimensions, the Optimus G is in between the Infuse and the Galaxy S III. The GS3 fits into the Infuse car dock, so I bet the Optimus G will fit. If so that would be awesome since the Infuse car dock is dirt cheap.
Also, I noticed the Optimus G floor model at AT&T came pre-loaded with the Car Home app. So maybe they are working on an OEM car dock anyways.
Thanks
Shawn
I'd like to know as well; it actually might work with a case based upon the thickness specs.
I'll let you know, I ordered one for 5$.

My optimus came in today and I was able to modify the car dock to make the optimus g fit. It took a good amount of dremilling to make it fit and isn't the prettiest job, but it works and the usb lines up and charges the phone.

As you can see I did a hack-job on this.... I think I need some better/different dremel attachments.
But, this shows that it is possible to get the Samsung Infuse car dock for next to nothing and you can make it work.
By the way, the extra hole in the dock was for the speaker on a SGS3.
Thanks for posting this.
Where did you get the dock for cheap?
Does the aux out function from the dock work with the optimus?
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
It looks like you got it to fit without a case. Do you think there is enough material in the dock to take more out to get it to fit with something like the BodyGlove case?
Update:
Found a Infuse case at an AT&T store. Paid 5 bucks for it. The phone will fit the case if you take a pair of pliers and bend the corners back a bit. I find it works best to bend the corners close to the charging base more than the corners on the other side.
Also, there is no audio out from the mount. You have to plug the aux cable into the phone to get it to work.

I don't think this will work with any case. There really is not a whole lot of wiggle room, and the micro-usb part of the dock that slides into the phone has to align perfectly.
There are several sellers on ebay pushing them. I'm just curious how they fit and how thin they are.

This one looks nice,quite tempted to try one out

I too am curious about these cases. I also stumbled upon these on Ebay and tend to like them quite a bit more than the Nillkin (at least cosmetically) and they look to be a little thinner as well...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/330839147407?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
I've been using the black Nillkin case for a little over a week and I love it. It's very thin -- it hangs over the top and bottom of the phone a very little bit. The case won't protect the screen at all, as the ridges on the side do not seem to raise past the screen's height.
The only downfall is the fit isn't 100% accurate -- the the buttons don't line up exactly with the holes in the case. This doesn't cause any issues because they aren't being pressed down. The worst is the camera button's alignment. I'll try to take some pics when I get off of work.
Overall, I would definitely recommend if you're looking for an non-intrusive, cheap but nice looking & feeling, scratch-protector case. Do NOT buy it if you're in the market for drop protection.
p.s. The black looks great with a white nokia. The white shows through on open bottom, top, and around the camera area in the back.
ALSO, works perfectly with the wireless charger.

i actually bought the gray version of that case off amazon, it came in yesterday and i'm quite happy with it. it provides a LOT more grip when holding and adds virtually no bulk. well placed cutouts for the camera and side buttons as well.
wireless charging works through the case too. overall very happy with my $8 purchase.
