Which kickstand case do you prefer with your 3VO and why?
Seems like the official HTC case wont be able available for another week or two while the Seidio is already available at Best Buy. Seidio has the charging port on the bottom
i'm getting the official HTC one because the charging port will be on top.

How does the HTC case move the location of the charging port?

It depends on which way the kickstand flips out, in which case, HTC's flips in the direction where the phone's usb port is pointed up, allowing for charging while using the case.
I want the HTC case more than any other case. I want a case that still allows the phone to be slim as I carry it in my pocket.

Why are you still using pics of the prototype htc case? They updated the design, and there are new pics that clearly show the charging port unblocked.

hes right
i just seen the other case with the charging port at the top. I got the one from best buy so i think ill take it back now lol
Thanks for the replies guys. I was still on the fence but you overwhelmingly voted for one of the two. Guess I'll wait for it to come out in the next few weeks. I got a cheap silicone one from Amazon to hold me over, better get delivered today LOL
Yeah I just went to Radio shack, The sprint store, and Best Buy and they definitely don't have the Official HTC kickstand case yet..
Don't understand how HTC wouldn't have the case come out the same time as the phone.
when you set the phone down, are the cameras touching the table? I want a case that is just thick enough to set it down without scratching the camera glass
I want that HTC kickstand case for my phone, and I think it will still fit on the holster that I want to buy which is this:
http://www.vanmobilegear.com/htc-ev...er-design-leather-holster-case-accessory.aspx
The Seidio kickstand (Best Buy) is PLASTIC!!! No way I'm getting that, I'll wait for the official HTC.
BTW - the phone is so awesome as is that root isnt necessary unless HTC fails to get us ICS in a timely matter. Well only necessary for screen shot apps and ad blocking LOL
I'm surprised no one has mentioned this, but there are a lot of apps that only work in landscape mode where the charging port would have to be down anyways. One of the big ones being Netflix. I like the design of the HTC one better, but the kickstand flips the wrong way to be suitable for all apps and that's really disappointing to me. Why didn't they just put the port on the bottom like before?

If that's true man that's full of fail! I may just stick with this Otterbox Commuter case or go naked lol..... I didn't really want a case at all but I'm feeling this Commuter case.

Unlike the stock hero, 3vo rotates the other way in most apps I tried. I think netflix would too.

I saw the otterbox defender for the Evo 3D listed today on ebay, and Amazon. Of course I ordered one immediately. I went with ebay for the free shipping.
---------------
Well the otterbox has arrived! here are some pics of the one I received.Make sure and check out the hands on review I uploaded in HD! The case is not that bulky at all. It seems slimmer than the one for the Evo 4G. To bad I dont have that one anymore to compare it to.
The case has a cool tab that will lock the belt clip open to turn it into a kickstand when you dock the phone with the screen facing out. [see pics]
Only the camera lenses have plastic covering them (and the screen itself of course), the speaker and LED flash holes are open. The LED hole does have a foam gasket that will form a tight seal to the phone. This I hope will reduce light bleed while using the flash which would wash out the photo.

The otterbox website has not added the evo 3d line yet. I would think they will be available at launch on the 24th.
Hopefully its not like the evo was with them. It took them forever to.get cases out for the evo when it came out.

That's strange because I emailed them a few days ago and they responded back that they had no information on whether a case would be made for that phone. At least I won't have to wait as long as I did with the original EVO. Hopefully the Commuter isn't far behind.

yeah i ordered one too. The seller has tons of positive feedback, thats the only reason I purchased. I already have tracking. Its coming from indiana.
ps, it looks like the inventory he had is gone, and or otterbox ordered a cease and desist. anyway as long as it fits the evo 3d ill rock my fodderbox.
Okay now im leaning twards fake, The top picture I linked from the sellers page appears to be the otterbox defender for the HTC inspire. I noticed the time and date were the same.
crossing fingers it fits the phone. If not its going back. seller says they take returns as long as the packaging is there. Its easy to file a "item not as described" or "counterfit item" claim on ebay.

Lol that was pretty obvious since the 3d doesn't look like that, easiest way to tell is the 4 buttons. Htc changed them on the 3d. Also it's proven that it's fake if you look at the picture I posted at the top of this page.
I would never thrust anything like that, especially when its not even on the official otterbox site yet. Also it says if fits all those other phones. Yea right.

Since it looks like I have 7 days to return it and the evo 3d may not be out yet , when the case gets here ill post some pics here Ill them make my decision on keeping it or not. most likely its going straight back.

Ok, I bought one. We'll see if it even shows up. I'm still on the fence for if it is real or not. The picture of the backside is interesting. If you look on the left side closely, there is a little bit of text. It's "2D 3D" etched into the case. So, if this is a fake, there is quite a bit of detail in it.
Hey guys, does anyone know if the official HTC case will be released along with the 3D, same day?

It is 29.95 but I wish it covered more of the camera. Plus its a hard shell case. Wish it was like the otterbox commuter with a soft silicone/tpu core and a hard poly shell. for that price it should be better.

Love that! This is "kind of" like the snap on case that I have had on my Evo 4G since day one. Can't see the front of it but I call the snap on case a "Bikini" case because it covers "just enough" to keep the phone safe and secure. My Evo looks as good as it did on day one (with the exception of the crack in the bezel near the unsupported power button) and it's not bulky at all.
Thanks for sharing the pic! I'll definitely have one of these on day one.
*I hope the hinge construction holds up..... I think the only thing I will miss is the kickstand but owell.
Off topic but I got an email from Sprint this morning and they changed the front facing camera to a diamond shape. Looks kind cool I guess. Just saying (;

That's a big a$$kick stand! I just hope none of these "HTC" letters fall off so easily like on the EVOs. I've lost track of how many times I've had to go back to Sprint and ask them to give me a new battery cover since my letters fell off.

Does anyone know if this is being released on 24th as well? I looked for it in google but couldn't find anything
Never had to replace any letters because my Evo lived in a Case Mate barely there, LOVE THAT CASE. This HTC case looks to be built just like it only with the kickstand so this will be perfect.
AS for if they are going to be available, I was told at the Shack that they would have cases the following week, I'm checking with a family member to see if Sprint stores will actually have them or not on Friday. I hope so....
The best feature about the og evo kickstand is the 'snappyness'. I can snap the thing open and closed in a nervous fidget like clicking a pen...totally annoying all around.
But does the kickstand in this case have a snap spring closing? It looks like it will be more flimsy with a small latch to hold it or something.

Lol i do the same.thing when I'm.using my phone..it drives my wife crazy ..click click ..but it is pretty sturdy and i definitely use it a lot..its a must have for a phone this size..def not a gimmick like some said in the past
It makes perfect sense to have the charging port up when on the kickstand. But some apps will not work this way I think. It'll be upside down. Take netflix app for example. It only plays the other way around. Tried it with my evo 4g.
What is HTC gonna do about this I wonder?
I am very concerned about the charging port being positioned on the side of the phone. I love the OEM HTC charging cradle for the Evo 4G. I set it in the cradle and I can easily see the screen from my desk (and flip through things) while it is charging.
How am I going to get the same effect with the 3d? I suppose that it could sit in landscape mode (I saw a 3rd party charger like that), but Sense doesn't go landscape, right?
Who knows lol. It could if they wanted it to, I'm sure that issue was thought of though
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
The new Sense does landscape quite nicely, no worries. And here is the HTC Dock
Nice looking cradle!!
I hope someone carries that for less than $50, screw that price.
cradle availability
Has anyone purchased the cradle yet? Or are there any alternatives for less than $50? I don't even see it listed on BB's site anymore....

Really? It does? I would like to see that can you share the setting to make that happen?
Now I do know there is a Dock Mode setting that shows in Landscape but it does not allow you the full use of your phone. I also know that most apps will work in landscape. But I am almost 100% sure (and would love to be wrong on this) that the sense interface does NOT do landscape on this phone.

+1 i second that statement. sense 3.0 does not have landscape capabilities on the homescreen...
i have been searching for the cradle if anyone has one please let me know where you ordered it! every site i tried says they are sold out.....
While playing with the phone I noticed Dock mode... Pretty sure if docked it will automatically go to this state and there the landscape problem won't exist... Dockmode is a lil weak imo tho
Bussin Caps from my 3D shooter
Has anyone found or picked up the official HTC cradle yet?0, And if they have is the enough room for a case, just asking because the photo shows the phone pretty tight in the slot without any case
doubtful that the case will will work this type of dock
Kidigi makes one.
It's for pre ordaer, but it has a second battery slot in back and is only $31. They have one without the second battery slot for cheaper. They look nice and the ones they made for the og evo were great.

How the heck does that EVO 3D have honeycomb on it?
I was just out at best buy and was talking to an associate there. i asked if I could get the htc case put on hold for the 3d. She said "well we actually have them here now" i got excited and asked if I could purchase one. she said to hang on a minute and she would get me one. well that minute went by and she said actually on second thought I better just have you wait incase the case's sku isn't loaded into our computers yet....bummer. anyway since I know stores have them in stock i was wondering if anyone has gotten their hands on one. how was the quality? finish? fitment? etc.

I ordered a rubber from Amazon for less than $5, hopefully it'll get here before Friday. Depending on the price I might pick one of these up too. I frequently use the kickstand while watching video.

I ordered that one. Note it's nowhere near as black as it is in the picture. It seems fine, I like TPU cases, and this one protects the camera completely.
I got this mainly to have something to keep it in until I get a nice case, but my Evo did great in my last cheapy TPU case. I may have to get the HTC case for the kickstand though.

I am not a big fan of cases on my phones really. But I wonder if someone will make a new battery cover with a kickstand built in too. I don't really care much for my kickstand on my 4G, only really used it to show to people. But just in case in the future I get that perfect height nightstand next to my bed where the kickstand comes in handy, I'll want it again .

lmao...that really made me laugh
Good stuff. Made by Seidio, but just branded Platinum. They had a name for it... Like a series. Instead of Active, it had it's own name, but I forgot it...
Also got the Super invisibleSHIELD.

I've had the Active cases on my Epic and Evo... I figured I'd stay with the same case. Might rebuy once Seidio ones come out.
Edit* It's called the Cruiser.
Oooohhh, do like. So far this is the only Evo 3D case I actually like. I'll look it up. I'll probably buy one next time I get paid.
EDIT: Found it here on Best Buy, but it's sold out & backordered for 1-2 weeks. Linky
If anyone else can find it somewhere that it isn't sold out, that'd be great!

They have about 15 of them at the BB near me. Most of them are black, but they have some purple hard-plastic ones too.

Lucky. Wish I didn't live an hour away from the nearest Best Buy lol
Mine has blue surface cases $29.99 and black surface cases with holster $34.99...
The Cruiser was black only, no holster $34.99...
The Heavy Duty one was black with holster. $49.99
I can't quite tell from the photos. Are the buttons covered completely? They have them in stock at both BBY's near me, and I might pick one up. Thanks
The only openings on the case are the screen/face, 2D/3D toggle switch, earphone jack and little mic opening.
Thanks Chris
i got the "rugged" version of this at best buy but returned it.. the fabric on the holster was messed up..
also, the case felt cheap.. i had the same case i got from them for the Evo and that one was good, loved it...
i have been a sedio fan for a while.. easy case to take off and put on.. i like to have the phone naked when i am phone. the otter box defender i got now sucks to take off!!! like the case but its a pain to take off.. not to mention the holster does fit the belt i use since its a wide riggers belt.
but i will be getting the sedio once its out and hope casualty is better than the best buy version.
Nice case but.....
I think these are nice cases, i even had one one my old evo but, if you drop it and it lands on the corner, those little claws will break. Unless they changed the plastic its made out of, that is the weak point of the case. I ended up with a ballistic on my last evo and that thing is a tank. I have the otterbox defender on my phone now. I always pic the most rugged case becase it keeps my phone in pristine condition which allows me to sell it and upgrade to the next phone for free.
yup , just as ugly (and probably as fragile) as the ones on the original evo....

lol when i am home... i messed that one up... long day
but yeah, since i use the phone more when i am home, i like to take the case off to help with heat.
Yup the corners do break easily.
I had the same issue with my evo.
I had 2 cases break on me - and my wife's broke on her too
All 3 were the tabs as mentioned above

Maybe some people can't handle the case. Contact Seidio, they are pretty good about it.
Maybe they don't create a quality product.
I've had a Surface and a couple Actives on my Evo. Had a Active on my Epic and never had a single issue. Maybe I baby my phones. I dunno. They've been more than great for me.

When did you buy your first active limited? How long did you use it? Maybe they fixed their quality issues...?
I know it wasn't only me having issues with the tabs - at the time I got on XDA/Amazon and everybody seemed to be experiencing the same thing. I started the return process and let them know that the tabs were an issue and I am sure others did as well.
I really hope they did fix this problem, because I loved the case other than that or I would have never bought a second one (I was hoping it was a fluke)
In the end I just went back to my official HTC case. I didn't like it near as much but I never had issues with it either.
Later,
Matt
I started picking them up around November 2010.
