I just spoke to some folks at Seidio today and they notified me that their system has a note that the Tilt 2 for AT&T will never be produced as per their Product Management team.
This is an incredible let-down for myself, and I find it hard to believe that they can't just modify the case currently for the HTC Touch Pro 2 to allow for the PTT key, and sell everyone that case regardless of your service provider.
Anyways, if anyone but myself was waiting on this case,I guess we need to find something else which is a shame.
I was waiting for this case also. I emailed them weeks ago and the return email was on the line that they are in the process of developing products for the tilt 2. So yes, this news is disappointing.
My suggestion, don't spend the extra money for a half-baked case. There are PLENTY of alternatives out there on ebay. I have one and it's wonderful and cost about 1/10 of what any of these "upscale" brands charges.
Sorry, forum was messed up.
Yes, I purchased one of those and it did not come close to fitting my Tilt 2.
For those of us with a Dremel and too much time on our hands, is it possible to mod the Seidio case to a near OEM look. Seems like taking about 3/8 of an inch off the PTT side would be golden. Opinions?
I'm not personally interested in having to pay so much money to "make do".
What I've personally decided to try is the Seidio holster that works with out phone, and a GadgetShieldz full body protection. I was actually really impressed with how this phone looked and didn't want to hide it, so this might be a good compromise.
I use a hard case I found on ebay for about $9. It works wonders, combined with a holster side pouch I bought on the street in NYC for $5. Total $14.
MUCH less than anything Seidio wants to charge.
Just had live chat with Seidio and this is the result.
Angela: hello
Customer74: hello
Customer74: Will you be making the innocase for the tilt 2?
Angela: Yes, we will be, but we don't have an exact ETA yet.
Customer74: Thank you.
Angela: You're very welcome. Is there anything else I can assist you with?
Customer74: Not at this time, thank you.
I had a long chat with them within a day of the original post and they emphatically stated that they were not making it. Who knows....
methinks they're messing with you.
I spoke with them on the phone today (as apposed to the chat like last time) and they again told me that it was not going to be released. I was unable to get any more details.
By the time they get around to making it, it will be like wanting to buy a case for the original tilt - there will be another phone out all off us are moving to =P
I am afraid you are right.

I just applied the GadgetShield a few hours ago and it's already looking great!
Going to wait until tomorrow to try placing it into the case - after feeling the new rubbery skin of the phone (which looks great) I'm not sure it will work together.
When I talked to them in early Dec, they told me at the end of Dec. :-(
Is it possible to use the Touch Pro II case and let it just cover up the other button?
I saw the post regarding modification, just wondering if its possible to ignore the button all together.
I had this case for my original tilt and hated it.
Going with a full phone gadget shield and then a slide-leather case.
the bulkiness of the innocase is just too much for me.
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.
TP2 Silicone case from a hong kong vendor on e-bay:
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.
Anyone find any cases yet??
What do you think about the head phones??
Ive been using a Seidio belt pouch that I bought for my Touch Pro 2 a year ago and it fits it perfectly. I also just bought the REALOOK screen protector from amazon but im expecting to get that within a few days. Ill let you know if its worth getting or not, but the general consensus with that brand on other phones is its invisible, perfect fit, maintains the smooth glass feel of the screen.
Thanks Man!!
i have been searching for weeks.. to no avail.. i mean.. i've found a few that MAY work.. but my phone is on the way now .. soooo.. long story short.. best case i could find.. for myself was .. where other than the AT&T accessories page.. right where i should have started here s a link...or not.. thank you spammers.. anyway.. should be easy enough to find
I placed my order last night for the Invisible Shield maximum protection package. It ended up costing about 27 bucks shipped, but I've heard nothing but good things about this setup. I'll let you all know when it comes in.
OLD School and New School
I've actually been using the case from my 8125 for my past three phones (Tilt, Tilt2, and now Surround). It's a little tight on the long axis, but that's not the end of the world. I had wanted a new one; but the only one I found was $35 and I'm not willing to shell out that kind of money.
Regarding headphones, this is the first phone where I get over 95% reliability on my Bluetooth S9s, and given how uncomfortable the stock ones are I'm willing to live with a couple of skips.
Hard Case
Hi guys...
I bought this Hard Case on ebay. It feel nice on the phone.
Invisashield
Just got the surround yesterday and had the girl at Best Buy put the invisashield on. I don't normally like screen protectors as it takes away the sensitivity, but I don't even notice that this one is on. It gets a high rating in my book, not to mention that if anything goes wrong with it, it's replaced.
In the past month, I have tried twice to buy a "new" Logitech Note Pro 12.2 folio keyboard. The first, from Ebay, arrived and I touched its keys and immediately heard a weird crunching noise. The keys would not really even depress. It was obvious to me the keyboard was a retread... packaged to look new but horribly faux repaired. I sent it back for a refund. So then I went to Amazon, and bought one from Amazon. Unbelievably, it too was obviously a badly repaired and repackaged broken keyboard -- the right shift key was actually coming off, and underneath it a bunch of glue and white plastic preventing the key from even depressing. I just contacted Amazon and am returning it immediately. I really want one of these... they are on sale all over the place for around 46 bucks (give or take). But I'm very wary at this stage of buying any of 'em. Sigh....
Update: Just bought a kinda raggy taggy one for 35 bucks from a guy who'd actually used it. It has some wear, but at least the keys will work. Anyway, just a heads-up for others looking.
That was a good price as BestBuy is asking $93.99 now.
Did you buy them from Logitech, or a random seller?
In my experience you should always buy these things in a sealed box from an official reseller store. And if they're 50% cheaper than the retail store, that's never without a reason....

I do tend to live on the ragged edge. A missionary's budget doesn't allow for a lot of squeaky-clean geekdom. The two keyboards purchased were from resellers, but large ones -- one actually sponsored directly by Amazon.
This last purchase, counter-intuitively perhaps, I have made intentionally from someone who is selling their keyboard they personally used. At least that way I know it works. Cheapest they are new is near 100 bucks, even now. Will let everyone know if the keyboard works for me. Heh.
Just be careful out there buyin'.
Blessings.

Keyboard came, works fine.
My first keyboard years ago had a hidden flaw that took a year for me to notice. The sync button was broken. I bought a used one for $33 and it works fine.
got a new one directly from Logitech and it had a broken Bluetooth button. They sent me a new one and I opened the faulty one to see if i could fix it. I have to say I wasn't impressed with the flimsy nature of the button & switch.
Uh oh. I just ordered an ebay one. I'll keep my fingers crossed until it arrives.
Edit: I got mine and it seems fine. It was sold by seller: winnerauctions for $41.99 and he's got more than 10 left to sell for anyone interested. Mine didn't come with an instruction manual or the original cable, just a generic cable and the keyboard wrapped in bubble wrap. But it works and seems not to have the issues others have mentioned above.
Just picked up one on ebay for $30 shipped. Hopefully no issues I can't work around. Did notice there are A LOT of them up on ebay for $40 or less listed as refurbs. Can only assume Logitech does have issues with these.
Hello guys
I have recurring problem with the Folio Case for our Edge 30 Pro.
I'm talking about fabric case from Motorola, with Folio windows for AOD option, and stylus + stylus back pocket for wireless charging it.
I use Moto since May 2022. Until now, I have second Folio Case, given by my seller. Both of them have same issue, cracking corners and loose holding to Phone themself.
In this case, I want to ask you:
[1] Do you use your Motorola Folio Cases?
[2] If yes, do you recognize same or similar issue to mine?
Actually I have Open discussion with Motorola/Lenovo Europe about guaranty process by "factory defect" or "material defect in product". See, what will I can do.
Please, share your Xperience
Best regards for best comunnity

Hello!
Yes, same issue here. I reached the Lenovo/Moto support and they refunded me.
Then I purchased a new one, and I'm extra careful with it. I never extract the device from it, since I guess the corners crack when removing/inserting the device multiple times.
Would be nice to find a 3rd party folio case with a Stylus holder!
BTW, did you notice a slow wireless charging with the Folio case, or is it just my impression?
Thanks!

Hi @dielle27
Thanks for you reply. Actually I can't get refund, becuase My Edge 30 Pro was sold me in one-pack, as one position in invoice. Well, in this case, refund amount is undetermined. Bad
I want to buy a new one so much... but, in my country, Folio Case isn't able to separate Sale.
Anyway, I don't know if this solution will help, because I was very careful with actual 2st. of Folio cases, and it crack happened. I never extract Edge from case too, without serious reason, only once when I change Case to a new one.
And you have absolutely right, there should be 3rd party option to buy other case with a Stylus holder, maybe made from other, more elastic material, not that hard as a original one.
PS. I can't tell you anything about slow wireless charging, becuase I only use wire charging. Only my Moto Stylus use wireless charging while in holder, of course
Best regards and thank you for reply @dielle27

Same here. Got my phone and folio two weeks ago, now three corner are cracked, from using the phone lightly around the house. I got the phone and case directly from Lenovo Sweden, trying to get hold of them to resolve this.
In Australia I can't find the folio case anywhere.
Quick update.
After tons of email and light-years of discussion with my local district of Motorola, and escalate this to father-company, Lenovo, I get warranty ticket month ago, send my full damaged and useless Folio case to company, and yesterday, without any announce, I get new, shiny and tasty Folio Case for Edge 30 Pro!
Corners seems a little thicker, but I'll see how long it hold in one piece this time. Wish me years, this time
