Charging case for OG? - AT&T LG Optimus G

So idk about you guys but I'm super interested in a charging case for this phone. I haven't seen anyone make it so I shot an email to powerskin asking if they had any plans on making one and if not if they would consider making it. I think if the OG community shows interest in this case we might be able to get them to start making them. Anyone interested?

Not going to happen because the AT&T version is different from the Sprint/Global version.

PowerSkin has problems and will bork your phone. Google it and you will see. I use the BodyGlove case and it's almost like an Otterbox case, with inner silicon case and an outer hardshell case. Rather expensive at $35 (ATT Store) but comes with two inner cases AND two outer cases (different color combo). I also carry with me a RavPower 5200 mAH external battery, it's very portable and works well, charges my OG over 2 times. I subscribe to the school of thought that do not believe in multi-function tools, rather a special tool for a specific purpose. Sure, it'd be nice to carry one universal tool for ALL purposes but then that tool doesn't do ANY one thing especially well.

Two Outer Shells For The Body Glove?
It should come with 2 inner rubber cases and one Gray plastic shell. If yours came with two plastic shells I got jipped a plastic shell at the AT&T store.

[Q] Cases with a kickstand

Does anyone know a good case with a kick stand? The most important features are just the kickstand and thinness. I know Casemate makes a great one, but it's way too thick.
This one seems okay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-FoldOut...ccessories&hash=item2eb8015e60#ht_2188wt_1163
But I'd have to make a slight modification for the microphone, and most importantly, I don't know if it will fit. I'm quite weary of any of these cases that can fit both the international and ATT versions.
I bought my GS2 on launch day and ATT had 4 different cases in the store. Case Mate was the only one offered with a kick stand but it felt cheap so I opted not to get it. There was a nice leather case but none of them fit the phone, lol. Guess those will be sent back.

Thanks for the link and the info...I too got my SGSII on launch day and was disappointed at the lack of accessories and items available for the AT&T branded SGSII. I even have communicated with Body Glove about one of their cases (As I have been a fan of that one and used it on my Cappy and Infuse both) but they said they will not be producing a Body Glove case for our phone So I am going to try the above listed one and I will let you know. Maybe even post some screens and update the thread.

I bought this today instead of the leather case...
Its definitely not as bulky as I thought it would be (previous experience with the thrill and infuse pop cases) and the kickstand works great!
It also fits real nicely. The leather case seemed a little too tight and that it would require some effort to put in properly

I've had this for about 3 days now. I think its called Minisuit
Pros: Thin, light, tight fit, good kickstand, cheap, quick delivery
Cons: no hole for secondary mic, generic micro usb rechargers have trouble given cutout (stock cable works fine)
Happy enough with it for now.

Yeah, it's called Minisuit. I ordered it via Amazon.
Luckily it's TPU and not a hard case so I can make that second opening.

I was considering that one, but hard cases are more difficult to cut the mic opening.
ny gs2 doesn't say Samsung or att on front.... only says galaxy S on back cover... is that supposed to be like that
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
Ok, I got the case.
Doesn't fit 100%.
The bottom in particular, but it's barely noticeable. The top mic needs to be cut out some more, which shouldn't be too difficult since it's not plastic.
Case actually looks a lot better than I expected. The kickstand is very flimsy, which I expected. Once you put the stand up, don't put any pressure on it. It's very likely to just snap off. The power button becomes pretty stiff, too.
They also ran out of minisuit keychain screen cleaners. They said if I want one, email them about how I feel my order is "incomplete without one," and they'll send one when they have more stock.
Kind of a weird way to make us word it.
Either way, I'd recommend this if you need a very sleek and thin case that doubles as a flimsy kickstand.

Verizonwireless.com High Gloss Silicon Case. What do you guys think?

Trying to get a head start on accessories before I get the phone, lol.
Does anyone own the High Gloss Silicon Case available direct from Verizon. It comes in 3 colors. $19.99 each.
They have a sale this weekend, buy 3 items get 20 percent off, buy 5 items get 30 percent off.
I was planning on getting the screen protectors directly from them also, and maybe an extra STANDARD size battery.

I coughed up the $20 for this case in black. I bought the phone just before traveling on business and did not want it naked. (I actually had just decided not to purchase another phone for a while as I had my Incredible rooted and on a stable ROM with a great kernel, etc. etc., but the LCD cracked. I suspect it was a Verizon OTA screen cracking exploit nobody knows about....)
I like how the case wraps around the Rezound. I also suprisingly like the gloss. We'll see how it holds up. I typically keep a case for a few months then decide I want something "else." Once a phone is rooted, I need to be able to pull the battery frequently while tinkering around with it, so a silicon case is a nice option, as opposed to a hard two-piece case that I'm constantly pulling apart. It feels like a "better" case than the cheaper silicon ones I can get at the stand at the mall right outside the Verizon store.
Picked up the red gloss case and so far so good I like that it doesn't add any bulk.

Yep, I have the black high gloss case also. With the case on, the Rezound fits perfectly in my hand and the case adds a nice grip to avoid dropping

Grabbed the black one when I picked up the phone. Fairly nice but not worth 20 bucks imo. Once my Otterbox commuter comes in, it's going back and I'll pick up a car charger.

Looks like a nice quality case...but 2.4 oz? Seems quite heavy...so had to weigh my boxwave which is .95 oz.
anyway, thanks for posting the info on the otterbox.

I bought the gloss white one; very nice, and the kickstand is sturdy...
I don't have it any sort of dock, since I don't think there is a dock that will hold almost any phone inside its case..If you want to be able to dock your phone, it needs to be case-free..
I Don't use a mount in the car either.

Click on the link I posted above then click on 22 New under more buying choices. If you have Prime it is currently 29.45 with free 2 day shipping. There is a cheaper one for 24.99 but it also has 4.48 shipping.
They don't ship to PR so I got it from Otterbox with a coupon and free shipping...
2 x $81
You can buy at shopatewe from $24.99 fs. I found this site through slickdeals priced at 34 but the site shows $24.99 with FS.
Got my Otterbox Commuter today. I finally found a case I'm 100% happy with. I've tried the Seidio w/ Kickstand (silicone was lose and the kickstand felt cheap), the Samsung flip cover (didn't like the lack of protection for sides), a few TPU cases (they were ok), and the Speck Candyshell (like everyone said the back starts to scratch immediately).
The Otterbox is slightly larger than the Speck but not really noticeable. Case fits the phone like a glove. Silicone feels much better than the Seidio. S-pen is easily removable. Case feels much more protective than the TPU cases I tried. Hard plastic makes it easily removable from my pocket without the easily scratch-able plastic the Speck case had. So far I have not found a downside to the case. If you have used a Commuter case in the past you know what you are getting.
In addition for those that were wondering the Commuter comes with 2 screen protectors, 1 for the International version and 1 for the AT&T version. However, I can't comment on quality since my Boxwave Crystal is working fine.
Yep still digging the case! I dont know about you but the case does feel good in the hand

I had the Rugged case(later renamed convert) for my OG EVO. It was a heavy duty case. Basically it starts with the surface case and then you add a rubber cover over the top of that and a plastic back clamps it all together. There are flip out covers over charge port and camera. The idea is you can adjust haw much protection you need. They also have a value pack that comes with two holsters. One for just the surface and one for the full convert case.
It did save my phone once when it popped out of the holster and landed in water. Just floated. I got real lucky.
I really like the case but it was a little on the thicker side. I went with active case this time. More protection that the surface but not as extreme as the convert.
MEM10 is 10 dollars off combos and MEM5 is 5 dollars off cases. This is on the seidio online website.

No dust covers and silly Transformers reliefs on the back that will interfere with an Aidock (and even with putting a magnetic sticker there for the airdock to adhere).
Nope : I'll pass.

The airdock is a wireless charging dock (essentially, for cars) : you lay your phone on a micro suction foam (below which is the QI coil), and it adheres to it. If your phone case is a bit rugous, the foam will not work as well, but you can just use a smooth magnetic adhesive (supplied with the dock) which'll work fine....
... provided you can lay it flat on the rear face of your case. And with such shapes on Urban Armor Gears cases, it will be a problem...

Yeah, but we don't know yet wether there'll be enough metal in the right place inside the Nexus 6, so to do without a magnetic sticker ; and said sticker won't do with the back of such a case as the Urban Armor Gear one.
The Airdock also has a suction foam which makes magnets redundant (or at least, adhere better, which is always good in the car), but it requires glossy and (rather) flat plastic at the back of the case, which is another problem with this one...
Well... we'll see what comes out as accessories. I now hope Otterbox indeed really is considering a case, as neither Trident nor Ballistic seem interested, and as Spigen won't do a case with dust covers. So a Commuter is among my last hopes, so I can buy the Nexus 6... If I can't have a somewhat rugged case (without going to the last extremities), I'll have to pass on this phone, even though I'd really like to get it.
Was always interested in UAG cases. Will probably cop one for times when I'm doing an activity that may require a heavier duty case for extra safety measures.

Thanks for linking it. I never had a UAG case before so I couldn't tell you. 40 bucks is quite steep for what amounts to a piece of plastic in my opinion. I'm thinking more of a flipcase or something with a kickstand since the phone is so large. The fact that the volume and power buttons are on the same side would suggest that they intend for it to be more of a media consumption device as well.

It is a bit pricey. I'm worried about the curvature of the back and those indentations. Almost wouldn't feel comfortable I'd imagine.
Seems like it might be awkward.

Hope they come in more colors. Never really liked the "crystal" version.

Thanks for linking it. I never had a UAG case before so I couldn't tell you. 40 bucks is quite steep for what amounts to a piece of plastic in my opinion. I'm thinking more of a flipcase or something with a kickstand since the phone is so large. The fact that the volume and power buttons are on the same side would suggest that they intend for it to be more of a media consumption device as well.

My Seidio CONVERT Case for the Nexus 4 was $50 when it was released and to this day I never had any damage happen to my phone (hell even the glass back has not been damaged at all if you can believe it!).
Fact is that when you are paying up a premium, you are paying for top notch protection. My Nexus 4 never was graced with the attention of Otterbox or UAG (hell I wish it was) but considering the attention and love the Nexus 6 is getting from Case Manufactures it is good luck for all of us on the options out there for us now!
I personally cannot wait for this case. I just hope they get it out there soon!
I'd like to see one in that olive green color they make.

My problem with the UAG for my S4 was that the high lip on the front, even with a tempered glass screen protector, interfered with swiping from the side gesture for opening the navigation drawer. The N6 is supposed to have a nice edge on the side, and I am afraid of ruining it.
For those of you wanting other colors: I just e-mailed their support and asked if they had any plans for different styles/colors. The response was a negative
Shame really, the Scout style looks really nice.
