Greatest FLIP PHONE EVER - HTC Startrek

HTC, should have continued on this avenue. I don't understand even those new Motorola Flip smart phones aren't really flip phones

T-mobile USA Touch pro 2 Accessories ...WHERE??!!

Ok... Am I the only one who cant seem to find anything for this phone? No cases (besides the Body Glove which doesnt fit 100% and the gel skin you can buy at the T-mobile store) No cradles, no mounts, nothing pretty much no concern on T-mobile's part to make any nice things for this phone. I know its fairly new but c'mon the Mytouch launched with sky divers and and plenty of skins and cases and even a zipper cloth box. I paid alot and waited alot for this phone now i dont have any options on what to get. All that ebay stuff for the unbranded version from what i hear does not fit the T-mobile version any help or any posting of actual T-mobile touch pro 2 accessories and sites would help. Sorry for the ranting i feel a little better im kinda new at this so please try to keep the flaming to a minimum lol thanks. By the way the phone rocks!!!!
body glove case for tp2
I am one of those that purchased it for $25 at tmobile last Friday and I am the first to say I hate it. While it feels nice, the top part keeps coming off. Also, I noticed the "proximity sensor" (shuts off screen when you put it against your face when you make a phone call) does NOT work with this case. Looks like I'm returning it tmw. I'd love to find cover for tp2. So paranoid of breaking my tp2 with 4 kids.
i hear ya man thanks for chiming in. I was looking to get that case but i too didnt think much of it besides your right about the proximity sensor some people have drilled a small hole to compensate for what body glove didn't do. i did however stumble across this site : http://www.thinktouchpro2.com/tmobile.html
its the only site as far as i know that actually states that they have a dock for the t-mobile version of the touch pro 2 um yay?
Check out Golla bags on Ebay, I'm loving the one I got. Fits the phone perfect with another pocket for cards, and a zip pocket for cash or headphones. $5-7 shipped.
Maybe one of T-Mobile's ways of trying to get everyone to switch to Android.
Have you seen all of the MyTouch accessories @ Walmart.
Yeeeeeeesh!
yes i have its crazy how they are pushing these android devices i actually had a g1 for about 5 months and dont get me wrong i like android but the possibilities on a windows phone as far as programs and tweaking are endless. I need windows and i was so patiently waiting for the touch pro since my birthday is aug 13th and it dropped on the 12th it was my birthday gift to myself.

Possible case design....OPINION

So since i have made the decision to keep my Prime i was thinking of some case designs. I would like to see a company make a design, that the hard case would come apart, like slide off on the bottom section and allow it to be docked. If i had the skill i would design one myself. I have been thinking of sending my idea to a company like Incipio and see what they come up with. I always have my devices protected with a case and this seems like the best design for this device IMO.
submitted my idea to incipio!!!

Cases for the LG OPTIMUS G E970 (AT&T)

Are there any cases for the LG OPTIMUS G (E970 AT&T) that are like the otterbox commuter series for the sprint version of the phone. Or any case that has the equal amount of protection. thanks.
Basically, the ones I've seen were initially reviewed 'well', but later, buyers either retracted their statements or added that they'd 'bought' this one:
http://goo.gl/jOK8n
It's the one I bought, and so far, I'm very happy...and yes, I do drop my phone a lot...my review is at that Amazon link somewhere now--so many people bought this, no telling how far down...
All 5-Star reviews, everybody happy with theirs.
Two things I can think of now, though--1, it blocks the LGOG e970 notification LED, and 2, it causes the phone to 'feedback' (echoing) heavily when you put it in speakerphone mode...
Otherwise, regardless of the lack of heavier, outer shield, I'm confident this case has protected my phone from breaking nearly a dozen times so far, on every kind of surface, from heights of up to 4 or 5 feet (we're talking concrete, parking lot surfaces, linoleum, even my wood deck...so carpet's not a problem).
There is a section for the AT&T version

Highly Disappointed With OnePlus 6T Accessories & Customer Support

Hello,
I have been with OnePlus since nearly the first month that they launched and have had the OnePlus 1, OnePlus 3, OnePlus 5, and OnePlus 6T and never has the company let me down. I have even switched my entire family over to these phones and recommended these to countless friends and people online. Yes, I am a OnePlus fanboy and also have a #NeverSettle bumper sticker for my car. The OnePlus 6T changed my opinion with this company. I have always bought these phones on the first day of their release, and this phone was no different. I walked into T-Moble and traded in my famous OnePlus 1 (that I paid 300$ for when it launched and still worked today) and traded it for 300$ of credits. I was highly satisfied and have been with the new phone. This is the best phone OnePlus has ever made in terms of pretty much everything.
This all changed when I went home and looked online and realized that there was no OtterBox or tempered glass available on the day of release which I found off as all of the previous phones have had these available. I thought to myself that surely they would be in stock soon. I even called that day and they said that they would be available soon for purchase as they usually are with all other phone releases. It has now been a week since launch, and they are still nowhere to be found. I called OnePlus just now and spoke with a representative who then talked to her manager who both did not know if or when these would be available. I then called OtterBox and talked to a manager who confirmed with me that phone manufacturers need to contact them and ask them to make a case for their phone which usually is done a month or more before phone launch. He confirmed with his even higher level manager that there have been NO REQUESTS to OtterBox from OnePlus to make a phone case for the OnePlus 6T.
I honestly feel like OnePlus entirely cast the customer by the wayside as an OtterBox and tempered glass are pretty much a necessity if you plan not to break the phone. What happened to #NeverSettle? I feel like OnePlus settled on this one and is banking on customers breaking their devices and paying for repairs or forcing them to buy insurance on the phone.
I honestly hope that a OnePlus mod sees this and can speak to someone to make this right for all customers.
Wow, just wow..... SMH
I've never put an otter box on my phone...
This is my first OnePlus phone... Came from a Pixel 2.
I was ecstatic finding out they included a case and a screen protector (even though it wasn't tempered glass). Usually I end up buying those at the store and ending up picking up the ones I really wanted later online.
I hope OnePlus reads this because I want to let them know I [emoji3531] my phone.

They're not absolutely needed. I've never used an OtterBox, or a tempered glass screen protector. I've used tpu cases on every phone I've had since the Droid Eris and have never broke a phone. And I've dropped them all dozens of times. Some people are to paranoid nowadays.
You're acting like the Otterbox products are the only products that can provide protection to the 6T.

You ok Clownfish? lol That was an awful lot of typing for a case type which has been much copied and if you ask me, done better by others. However that may be it appears you're having a bad day, hang in there man. **** passes eventually.
If everyone here does not use the OtterBox or genuine OnePlus Tempered Glass, what ones do you use?

In less time that it took you too write that irrational post you could have looked at multiple threads on the available cases or even done a Google search.

If you bought it at tmobile you should have bought the tempered glass screen protectors there they have them cases as well
The otter box isn't a big deal to me, this has been hit or miss for many of the OnePlus devices. Really with OnePlus short release cycle and comparatively low sales to other brands many of the "brand name" case manufacturers aren't going to touch OnePlus devices. We're lucky we get any cases or accessories.
The tempered glass part though, I think is a legitimate gripe. On my 5T the only good screen protector is the one made by OnePlus. I've order at least 10 different brands so far and gave up and went back to the OnePlus one. The only one that was close in quality for me was the Nilkin brand, but I thought it scratched much easier.
So yeah, "NeverSettle" I still haven't order a 6T, because I'm waiting to see if there is any real development for it. The 6 never got official Lineage support. The 6T has several strikes against it already because of the hardware, no headphone jack, notch, glass back, etc...
>Bought underrated or cheap (compared to it's rivals) phone
>rant about how customer support are bad and your fav accessories are not there
are you implying that oneplus should satisfy only you?
also, you called them, they even had their manager on your case, trying to entertain and satisfy your needs.
Now then if that's not a good customer support i don't know what will make good customer support for you.
True they said they did not know if or when these would be available, but do you prefer them to tell you lies "ah yes we will have those in a month or two" and one year later there wouldn't be any news about it? If i am you, i would be very thankful for the fact that my call even get answered, and when the representative can't answer my question, he/she tried to get his/her manager instead. That shows how much they tried to satisfy and care about you, even if in the end you still didn't satisfied.
just so you know, that brand casing hardly appear in my country market, heck i didn't even remember it exist until i saw your rant here.
The best casing i've ever used in my life is Oneplus One Poetic Revolution casing, which by using it, i wont even hesitate to use my phone as throwing weapon or even drop it from up to 3rd floor.
no offense but you sound like a kid throwing tantrums because he didn't get his fav, usual candy. . .
I appreciate the fact that you are and have been one of the people who has made One Plus successful by supporting the brand, sharing it with others, and ultimately being the kind of user (like myself when i find something good in Android) that helps the company to succeed. I am sure that without users who promote, as you have, the 6t never would have hit my hands. Also, the community members that finally pushed OP to obtain Vzw certification brought many of us to this device.
All of that being said, this is my first One Plus device. While I was glad to be able to order the Karbon protective case for the phone with my phone from OP directly, i appreciate that they preinstall a screen protector. I also am waiting on the official TGSP to be available anxiously. In the meantime, I spent $30 on a Skinomi and a Spigen [Air....whatever] case that will be here next week to help defray the chance of a break. I am rather accident prone when it comes to drops, etc, but so far [knocks on wood] I haven't had any drops. So i have to be uber careful for a bit.
Previously, I have used Motorola (almost exclusively until after the MXPE, and ZTE androids. One Plus gives you more than either does in terms of options. It is worthwhile for them to make their biggest fans happy, but do you think, considering the fact that this is their first device with an in-screen fingerprint sensor, that maybe for the first month or so, we should be patient? I could understand if it had been 2-3 months, but we have yet to crest 2 weeks. They clearly want their products to be right from the start, and as I am sure they could attest, their testing is thorough.
You would be even more upset if they had pooped one out that didn't work with the new sensor or, even worse, allowed the screen to break in a modest drop. I realize some of the comments in this thread are harsh, but honestly man, any other OEM would not have this at all. Samsung makes zero TGSP. Apple makes zero TGSP. You see my point. I am glad to finally be able to use OP as Tmob sucks where i live, and if I have to use my typical protection (spigen+skinomi) for a couple of weeks, i am sure it will work out. This is the best phone I have had in a very long time.

Any tempered glass will work on the screen with the in-screen fingerprint sensor. I had a few extra tempered glass screen protectors lieing around for the old OnePlus 5 and I put one on just to try it. They all worked fine there is nothing special needed.
I stopped using otter boxes because :
1- they're too expensive
2- they're too hard to get on and off
3- the buttons are ridiculously hard to press on every otterbox I've ever owned
4- I've had great protection and use with less expensive, better looking cases
If you want to rant, rant about the important things - The headphone jack.

I honestly feel you and was feeling the same when I purchased a 6T.
Gad that someone else felt weird about this too that Onelus DOES NOT have AN OFFICIAL TEMPERED GLASS available for 6T.
it had for 6 and I'm using it. It is great.
But surprisingly it is NOT available for 6T because of in-screen fingerprint scanner which I do not even use.
They SHOULD HAVE released it.
I can see the CHEAP companies making ridiculous tempered glasses already for the 6T with NOT SO CHEAP prices.
and oneplus did not make official tempered glass for the FEAR of their in-screen fingerprint not working.
bw for cases, buy the Nylon official case. It is as good as Otterbox.
But certainly it is a BAD MISS from Oneplus side to not CONTACT the Accessories companies for first party accessory.
BAD STRATEGY

to all the people ranting about the OP making a false cry,
you have never used official Oneplus accessories it seems.
I have used Official oneplus 6 tempered glass and It HAS BEEN THE BEST TG that I've ever used on any phone.
I was a fan of NILLKIN for the smoothness of their TG.
You bet, only a few know the company
I was expecting an official TG from Oneplus.
thank god they have the nylon case and the sandstone back cover too.

absolutely agree with you.
Oneplus TG is the best. nillkin comes second.
and yes, OS is STILL not available for Oneplus.
plus, I think till the time LOS ports Oneplus gesture navigation properly, I will not use it ever.
Oxygen OS is better than LOS for sure (if not stock android)
and navigation gestures is A HUGE WIN for Oneplus.
I see Oxygen OS ROMs being ported to other devices such as whyred.
smoothness of Oxygen OS and again, navigation gestures is awesome.
I was a BIG ROM flashing junkie and regularly play with all my other devices with custom ROMs but had to return on Oxygen OS on Onelus 6 because of just how good Oxygen OS is.
I wish my other xiaomi phones get oxygen OS port too.
Official tempered glass is on the way. It's been stated it'll be up in the site before Thanksgiving

Just one thing, where is this stated and by whom?
Good thing this is my first OnePlus then lol. Had mostly samsung/pixels/lgs/hauweis before this.
So far this is my favorite phone! Pixel came close.

As a past poster said. I'm surprised you weren't offered a glass screen protector when you bought your 6T from T-Mobile, I was, I also purchased a Official OnePlus case from T-Mobile. Ultimately I decided not to use that case, even though it cost $30.00, I went with a Zizo case. I highly recommend these cases, and have used them for years now, first on all of my ZTE phones, then on my 5T and now on my 6T. If you want an attractive and rugged case I would go with Zizo's Bolt series of cases, but they have about 5 different series of cases so go with one you like. Bottom line is there are better cases out there then just Otterbox, give them a try.

phone skin

Anyone know if there are any skims for our devices? It would be nice to cover the front of the dual screen with a skin but leave the notification window uncovered.
I thought they had Dbrand ones but they don't. I haven't found one and I've been looking for a week. I think I'm gonna get some 3M vinyl and just do it myself
Not only are many people sleeping on this phone, it seems third party accessories are doing so as well. Shame. Dbrand continues to list really, really, really old and obscure devices yet this one isn't on their list? That sucks.
