Otterbox Commuter case - HTC Droid DNA

Just got mine yesterday. It feels slippery and big, lol. The volume rocker seems to respond well, the power button doesn't seem as easy to press. And the rear noti LED is covered, which is not a deal breaker for me however.
I need to give it some time I guess. Using the phone without a case this past week has made me fall in love with the feel of this phone. But i am also scared of dropping it so I will give it a few days.

Any chance you could post up some pictures?

I should be getting mine tomorrow... Wait I better check the mail today.

AFAIK, the commuter series is meant to feel slippery so it can more easily slide in and out of your pocket. As for feeling big, that's probably just because it's a big phone.

Yes, I will try to post some pics today. After spending the day with it yesterday, it feels fine now.
Just took some getting used to.

If you use a razor you can cut along the long side of the power button making a small slit in the silicon. It releases a lot of the tension in the power button. Makes it very usable

Here are a few pics.

Whew... makes it a bit thicker! To be expected from Otterbox, though. Looks like a nice case! You're not too far from me... I live near Keene.

Cool! The pics make it look thicker than it really is. I am happy with the commuter case. Lots thinner than the defender.

It had to at least been a quarter inch. I made a little video. My method of measuring actually worked pretty nicely. I'll show you guys in a bit.

Much appreciated! I heard these cases have a desensitized power button. Is that true for you? And if so, how did you address it?

I think the Commuter case has been notorious for hard/misaligned buttons. I suggest doing finger exercises. This has dual function. Helps strengthen your trigger finger. That's the one I use for the power.
If anyone has suggestions, I'd be willing to try them out honestly.

I thought I read that someone did some sort of cut or incision to relieve the tension. But I can't reference it; forgot where it is.

Does anyone already have this and have feedback? Or is this pre-order the first time to market for the TF?
First time I see this. Looks nice and sleek! think I am gonna go for this one! looks more sturdy than the Original Asus one.
Anyone tried this case? seen it for the same time and it said it's 100% leather..

thinking of picking one up as well. currently have the multi-angle but as the OP said, it is a little too bulky for my taste.
Would like to know if it stands well because the pictures look like it'll be easy to push it back while standing up.

I just received mine and its going back....I do like the feel of the case, and the protection that I think it will provide. However, there are a couple things that I do not like thats making me take it back. The side and back slots fit properly but the front sliver that covers the light sensor and front camera doesnt lay properly so front camera pics are partial blocked. The tablet doesnt stand vertical without tipping over nor does the tablet stand properly while in the portrait orientation without tipping over.
Mines came in earlier today, the look and feel is great. The only thing I don't like is how the cover locks into place, it feels like it'll wear down quick and requires some force to open and close

Hyperion 3500mAh Extended Battery + Cover - Updated - Pics

I just ordered one of these. Has anyone had any experience with this one? The other Hyperion batteries seem to work fine and people are happy with them.
It is $19.99 on Amazon right now

Update:
This battery does NOT cause boot loops. Also NFC is not supported with this battery either.
Here are some pictures of the battery on the phone.

Yep Amazon knows how to do it right. My package has been delivered, but I have to wait until I get out of work to test it out.
Edit: Just popped it in my phone and it fits nicely. It's plugged in charging right now with no issues.
I know it's too soon but what are the first impressions?
BTW, before you boot ROM with fully charged Hyperion wipe battery stats in recovery. I found out hard way with my 1800mah Hyper.

I have yet to really use it yet but I'll use it for a few days and see how it does. I'm not so comfortable about having my phone without a case though. The back cover isn't that high quality but it works.

It takes 5 fully charges/discharges to properly calibrate. So that means at least a whole week.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
I have really only used it for like 2 days and when I was it was really heavy usage. As stated before, it does take a few days to properly calibrate the battery so it probably will last much more than I have been experiencing.
Since I do not have a case that works with the battery on I don't feel comfortable using it during work/school but I will be going on vacation trip to SC which is why I bought the battery.
Here was my first day:
The screen on time is all from playing games:
Thanks, Well I really don't know if get one of those or this one, on amazon search for B002MQUYU6
I want the hyperion because its 3500, but don't know if there is any case that will fit, I think will be harder to get something that fits with that shape..
on the "unbranded batt"I guess will be much easier to get a case.. What do you guys think ??

I'll be getting the SGP Neo Hybrid Ex case which will most likely fit.
It can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/SGP-Samsung-G...=A2SFKRF5TPZMT5&ie=UTF8&qid=1324475378&sr=1-6
Ok I bite the bullet, mine will arrive tomorrow, (I love amazon prime). And this weekend I will goto Vegas.. So, that would work to calibrate the battery ..
BTW: I found another case that might fit. Search on ebay for Taurus Galaxy Case... A bit expensive i think, but it looks nice
Sweet have been waiting for the extended battery thanks op
I received the battery..my initial impressions:
I thought it would feel cheaper than what it actually is, to my surprise the batt feels nice, the backcover sits like the original, but the cover it really feels cheap.
Also the added weight to the phone is really noticeable, but at the same time is welcome.
Something I notice is that sticker of the battery place the + a - on the wrong leads, and this battery runs a bit hotter than the stock one.
Right now is charging and lets see how good it's !!
Any updates?

It does the trick, but the raised screen bezel isn't fully protected, the damn thing weighs as much as the phone, and its almost impossible to push the power button on top.

I still love my Bodyglove case. It's a hard two-piece case the perfectly slips over the phone. The red looks really nice. I've had it for a short while, still like it. Dropped the phone a few times no damage. Although once on a hardwood floor the bottom of the case popped off (kind of like when you drop a phone by itself the battery cover pops off).
Here's the original thread about it...

I'd like one too. I usually use the silicon one from VZ if I have one on but I can't stand how cheap it is. And I wouldn't mind one that's thinner too. Really just to protect against scratches and keep the camera lense off of the surface or a table lol. This phone feels great without a case, not so great with one. Does anyone know the thickness of the silicon ones? I see that the seidio cases are 2.0 - 2.2 mm thick

Incipio has two sweet cases for under 30 bucks. One is a little bit bulkier than the other but both are much smaller than the otterbox case. They both come with screen protectors as well, just know that they are about 1/8 inch short all the way around. Check out there website.. Incipio.Com
These are smaller than Seidio as well but offer great protection.

It's very good quality. It's a two-piece design that slide and lock together so it will not fall off when dropped. Also, there is felt on the inside of the case so your phone doesn't get scratched.
I'll try to find my pics

The two piece case actually makes it easier to hit the power button and volume buttons. The feather case makes it more difficult. I really haven't been using my feather because of this fact.

I got it from ebay for about $8.00, and YES it does add some thickness. Feels nice and cold but it looks like aluminum cover sitting on top of regular one. Feels good to change litlle bit and it $8 it's not too much to spend

How easy is it to put on and remove? Will it get warped with repeated use?

Sure, http://www.ebay.com/itm/14115885092...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
Do not expect anything perfect, it's cheap but good to change for the price.

Little bit harder than oem (to put it on, needs extra press for click) and for removing you will need to use something like pry tool (forget about using nails), this thing is holding firm

Don't know I just got it yesterday. It does look like aluminum frame is just attached to top regular door. It increases thickness but I don't use any cases right now (expecting one in next 2 days)
Does it affect your signal any? A lot of people have said the aluminum frames, bumper or all around cases, seem to affect their mobile reception. Was just wondering if it did that or not.

I didn't see any difference while using this (except size and weight )

One more question, you put this over your regular battery door and not a wireless charging battery door? The reason I ask, I have the wireless charging battery door which makes the overall back a bit thicker and wondered if this would fit over this. Probably not but I thought I'd ask. Sorry for all the questions.
Neither. This comes attached to new door.

Ah okay....thanks for answering the questions! :good: It won't work for me as I love my wireless charging door and looking for something to go over it to protect my phone somewhat.
Not sure could this aluminum part be removed and attached (glued) to charging cover. Don't have one to try it

Anything is possible. I've seen so many DIY here on this forum, it spins my mind. I'm not quite that handy but it's definitely an idea I'd like to see someone else try

Could you please post a picture so we can see what you mean? Also, it would help to see if their design is moddable.
I will post some new pictures or maybe even a video over the weekend

nice! i was looking to replace my white back cover for something different.
Sorry, I have been busy but here are couple pictures that might give you idea about possible modding. I almost broke this thing trying to show you more, but decided to stop since I have no wireless charging cover to experiment with it. I used red marking so you can see where is "lower" black cover (aluminum is attached to it, don't know how - didn't remove more than on picture itself but pic 3 shows something like clips), 2nd picture is same door from inside
you have cute hands
it's a aluminum plate, so wireless charging is out.
quality looks good.
