[GIVEAWAY!!!] Who wants an absolutely FREE Otterbox Commuter case? - HTC EVO 3D

So in cleaning my room I stumbled across a very lightly used black Otterbox Commuter case for my EVO 3D that I got rid of many many moons ago. I have no use for it. Been doing case giveaways for the past few weeks over in the AT&T One X forums so I figure why not do one over here to get rid of this case. If you want it, it's yours, I'll even pay shipping.
Requirements-
You must have been an active member of xda for at least 1 month
You must have at least 100 posts
You must have at least 5 thanks
You must live in one of the 48 contiguous states (sorry, not paying for
international shipping)
You must actually NEED and WANT it (honor system here)
First one to post in this thread that meets these requirements gets it. I want this to go to someone who is actually going to use it so if you dont plan on using it, please don't post.

I don't meet the requirements, as in the 100 posts thing, but I REALLY need the case. Don't have a case yet, and I desperately need one.

Sorry bud, can't budge on the requirements.

That story's from pocketnow.com.
They're a bunch of freaking idiots who will print any rumor they're fed to the web as a 'scoop'. Very similar to an online version of the National Enquirer here in the US.
My guess: this is just a photo of a stock Evo3D with the wrong tint applied to it.
Then someone decided to get 'creative' and invent a story.

Well, Best Buy DID get an exclusive color to the EVO 4G. While RadioShack may have sprung a deal to do the same, it's not entirely impossible that this could be real. But still, I'm skeptical.

I remember awhile back I saw some replacement cases for the evo 3d on ebay in that violet color, and also black with gold camera bezel. I believe they are european versions, and the story may be true in the sense that they may have the style coming to the US. I don't buy the story, but the pics are definetly real they sold for like $80 on ebay.
I saw it our inventory along with the white one when th EVO3d originally came out. I think we are getting white an purple for sure soon.

I have a purple battery cover if anyone is looking for one. I'll sell it for what I bought it for ($42).

The ones I've seen on eBay went for $80 (but were the whole housing). $42 isn't unreasonable for something so hard to find. I didn't just "take it home". I had to do a lot of research to find out where to even get one, and then wait for it to ship from overseas.
I was just trying to hook someone up on here before it went to eBay (where I'll ask even more for it, because that's how supply and demand works).

Go to ebay, then, Mr. Buffet.
That's where all the big deals go down.
Be sure to file your intentions with the S.E.C., as you wouldn't want any allegations of "financial misconduct" to follow you.

Thanks but that one looks pretty flimsy and cheap.
Hmm I like the one shown for the iphone.... I'm also interested if there is something similar for the EVO 3d.
Well I've done some light searching and I can't find anything better than the one from the ebay link posted above.
Sadly the company that makes the one for the iphone, only makes products for Mac...... Which really sucks.... I hate when they do that....
I had one for my Evo 4G but only used it about 3 times. I like the iPhone case in the OP. The eBay case I've looked at before, but don't like how your credit cards are up against the camera lens, which could lead to scratching. Plus, when opened to take pics, your cash and card pockets are then upside down which may cause your money and cards to dump out.....
I bought my Evo 4G wallet case at obostore.com. I will check there to see if they now offer 3D wallet case. Also, seems like i saw another really nice wallet case some where else the other day ( they were $30-50 I believe) They offered black, Brown, and Brown/ tan limited edition with leather and suede.
EDIT: Never mind, here are the new leather cases i was thinking of but they are NOT wallets also... Sorry about the hope I may have given some of you, haha. Here is the link to what I was thinking of www.melkco.com/scripts/main/viewitem-O2EV3DLCJM1BNCVBNI-EV3D.html

The one I posted from Ebay has a cutout for the camera. I'm assuming you could just fold the front cover back when you're texting, emailing, etc. If I do end up getting it, I'll report back.
always thought this is one giant risk, lose your phone and you lose your ID and a few credit cards + whatever cash you decided to put in there- never put all your eggs in one basket!

I've lost my wallet more times than my phone. But I do so much on my phone that it rarely leaves my side. Something like this would be nice for me. My only problem is losing the magnetic code on a couple of my cards. But I'm pretty sure the wallet takes that into consideration.

This might be up your street.
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/EASECASE/H...&submit=Search&_fsub=868362018&_sid=149381558
I've had many cases off these guys over the years. Very customisable, the two down the middle double as wallets. Will free up a pocket though. Manufacture quality is good.
You won't be able to put a case on though mind and an invisible shield would be something else to look at or maybe a skin?
Constantly taking the phone out with those designs might become a pain as others have said already
Forgot to mention that when I had an xda IIi I had something similar it became a pain and I went back to the official leather case. Didn't work for me.

I'd love to start modding. Watching all the Dev talk in the Dev section makes me wish, I could help. I don't know where to begin honestly.

Lol, if I could I would. I'm probably going to add a line seeing as I'm used to have a backup line & phone so I switch this Epic to the new line and vice versa. I checked ET4G development, seems pretty decent.

It's probably a bit late for you, but I have kept my last non-smart phone in "mothballs" (eg, with the battery removed) as an emergency backup, until I could get another smartphone. On Verizon, a user can switch phones 24/7 by just registering the phone OTA (the previous ESN is replaced).
I've only needed to do this once, but it at least keeps my phone # active.

Hopefully not too well.
Digitzers (the glass over the LCD) are usually pretty easy to replace. I have a Motorola Atrix and I have replaced mine twice.
We have several phone lying about that I can let you have for shipping costs.
Not smart phones but it would be free.
We have:
katana eclipse X - black
Katana dlx - champagne
lg rumor - white
lg pm225 red/silver
I could let you have my POS Transform. It's my current phone so I might need $10 or $20 to help with the upgrade, but it beats $100
I know, the options are underwhelming and impossible to choose from.
Yowser...you broke it good!! How'd you manage that?

I would just be happy with a phone, the csr that moved my upgrade forward told me not to preorder because they weren't going to sell out on the 18th....
Today was supposedly the launch day but both Sprint and Best Buy said they haven't heard anything and both acted like I was an idiot when I asked about them
What kind of case? I just ordered the Seido one and may consider returning it if it is a good one.

Nice that they are doing that, but does anyone actually use the silicon cases anymore? I though most would use TPU at minimum. Maybe just me, but silicon cases always collected tons of dust and stretched like crazy after 1 or times taking it off the phone.
That will work, gives me some protection for the holiday weekend since my other case won't get here until Wednesday next week. Definitely a classy move to do that without any prompting etc.
Same package here. Sprint going the extra mile to please customers.
That's the way to do business...
Guess it's only special people as I did not get this even though I paid full retail for the phone.

Complementary Case from Sprint
Hey, just thought I post this, sprint just sent me a complementary case to make up for the pre-order patent delay. That was nice of them.
What does the back of the case look like?
I've got one being delivered today as well, apparently. Too bad I've already got a Seidio case and don't like blue cases.
I checked ups using my account number plus zip code since its said too many shipments and its on the truck for today. Very nice of sprint even we know it costs them a buck to make etc but still nice of them.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
Can who ever got one post the part or model #. Does it protect the screen too, or is just perimeter protection?
Sweet! I can't afford to get a TPU/Otterbox case in a while so this will do for now!
Thank you Sprint!
Guess I spoke too soon. Looks like I have an extra package coming today as well. Kinda funny cause I just ordered a casefrom telesales that should be here today as well.
In any case it's a very nice gesture that sprint and htc are doing. Even if I didn't get anything from them I wouldn't be complaining as the phone was well worth the wait.

This worked to get me a Note2 Upgrade!!

Wanted to share this with folks, as I know a lot of you would like an early upgrade to the Note 2.
First, we are a business customer; that is my wife works for a large corporation that allows us some nice discounts on our service. We have 3 phone lines in our family, so we are not that big of a account personally..
I called CS today, and asked about an early upgrade. We are only in month 10 of our agreement, so I didn't think I had much chance. The first guy I spoke to was trying to get me to change my plan, and add a line, and do all other stuff, so he could "justify" upgrading me for $299.
I told him no, I didn't want to add a line, or do anything silly like that, and asked to speak to retention.
After being transferred, I politely told the gentleman that I wanted a $199 upgrade to a Note 2; I mentioned that Sprint and T-Mobile had promos for that price, and, I could sell our 3 phones on ebay, and make more than enough to pay the cancellation fees, but, I wasn't threatening to leave, nor did I want to leave, nor did I want 3 upgrades; just one for me.
He came back and said he could do the upgrade for 299, plus he would give me a 30 dollar credit for the next 6 months, effectively making the price 119!! (299-180=119).
I asked him to waive the activation fee, and he said he would give me another 36 dollar credit to take care of that, and, also, throw in 2 day shipping for free!
So, I should have my phone by Friday, and am excited to move to the note 2, especially at THAT price!!
My point is, it appears that now that Xmas has passed, they are more receptive to doing early upgrades for those of us that don't really qualify; also, being very polite, and nice to the agent probably helped me as well!
Thanks to all the great friends, dev's, and mods that I have made in this thread, and, a lot of you have already moved to the Note 2, and I am sure a lot more of you will be there soon as well. Hopefully, you can be as successful as I was in getting an early upgrade if that is what you so desire...See you on the other side soon!!
:good::good:

I would hold out for world peace as my condition for happiness.
One phone feature isn't enough for me.
I've also got multi window... Lol. Gotta love being xposed
I would love to try this but with note 3 talk already out maybe I should wait.
Yes it will be a long wait but.....

I really like the notepad feature. I can write easily, but the unit lacks portability.

I LOVE that 2 tone look....acoustic modems FTW!!
Its true that there will always be a next big thing. The flashaholic in me wants a note 2 but att extended my upgrade time to 1 1/2 yrs when I upgraded to the note and I didn't upgrade early. So wait until Oct or pay full price. I'm sure they would be happy to let me pay full (overpriced) retail.

I count on the prices on Craigslist to drop. I have never used my upgrade, because I never want a contract.

Do tell!! I've been looking for a ROM with this capability for a while now. Still haven't found a solution.

Sorry, buddy, I was just pulling a few legs. Its sort of an inside joke around here because there has been almost 15 threads started about this. Now you're inside.

Have you guys not tried xposed frameworks and the multi window apk? Works on stock tw based ROMs.
