Evo 3D Cases From Many Manufactures

Hey guys just found this link on Google. I don't think you can actually order any of the cases through the site, looks as if it is for distributors. However, gives us a good idea of what cases will be coming out from some of the popular case manufactures.

Nice list. I don't see my favorite working man cases, which are Ballistic and Trident. Loved by mechanics, construction guys and all us clumsy guys around the world!

[Q] T-Mobile Samsung Tab 10.1

I've seen a few posts about this, but nothing definitive on whether anyone is actually working on any ROMs for the 10.1 Tab from T-Mobile (I picked one up about a month ago). I'm actually only looking for a stock ROM I can flash should I screw something up (which I kinda sorta did, but it's not something I can't recover from). When I got the device, and before I rooted it, I did go through and install some things and tweak some settings, then I rooted it, made a Nandroid Backup that I'm hoping is still recoverable (with all my changes), but I'd like to be able to go back to stock and start over whenever I feel the need.
Also, for getting any cases/accessories that require a certain size, which model which I be looking for, the 7500v, 7510, 3G model, etc (I don't know all the model numbers, just throwing these out there). It seems that the US Wifi version is the same size, but hoping others have already had experience with this. For now, I have a cheapo case off of eBay, just looking to upgrade to something nice.
Ive been lookin for cases too and if i find anything good ill let you know. I saw one on the t-mobile website that had a keyoard in the fold down case. Only question is where to get it cheaper.

Have a look on the box and you'll notice whether you've the 7500 or 7510 - I believe the difference being that one's the 10.1 and one the slightly thicker 10.1v with an 8mp rear camera.
There is no physical difference on the 10.1 between WiFi and 3G models except for the SIM cover on the top side. The 10.1v has different dimensions and a different back cover IIRC.
If the back of the Tab is plain of one colour except for a light Gray bezel around the camera, you have the 10.1 - if the back is full black with a circular effect in the middle it's the 10.1v.
EDIT: If you have the 10.1 (NOT the V), my personal favourite case is the Samsung Book Cover. It adds a fair bit of weight but very little bulk, lets you rest the device (almost) flat, raised for typing, or raised for video etc, and being an official product means the Tab fits perfectly and you can access everything very easily. http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/EFC-1B1NBEGSTA

The T-Mobile Tab is the same size as the standard P7500/P7510 so all the accesories should work. The Samsung OEM Bluetooth keyboard is fantastic and the most integrated and compact solution available. It's pricey but really high quality.

The best all-around case I've found is pretty cheap and available on Amazon. It's slim, well made, and sturdy.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Thanks for the replies, that helps in terms of the size/form factor. Any thoughts on the ROM situation? I'm just looking to have a stock ROM handy in case things go wacky on me.

Check out my guide.

What is wrong with case/review on amazon ?

Just look here http://goo.gl/XYxk1h
Waterproof case, over 270 reviews, 4.5 stars.
1. If there is gonna be something good like that then everybody would know about this case bcs every g3 owner is waiting for this case.
2. I read only 3-4 reviews but 2 are about Optimus, not g3
What is wrong ?
just reviewer program liar
Some vendors seem to use old product listings and update the product offered in them, that way they keep the old ratings. While other companies simply hire fake reviewers to make their product look good. It could be either of those cases TBH.

Do you think at the 24 second mark that foldable is real ? it looks awesome
Looking forward to see the final release but be prepared for sticker shock, likely to be the most expensive device ever.
It'll be interesting, but it's going to take a few device generations to evolve...
There is a fold cut in centre of the display and the bezels are too big in this and we can't expect flagship specs in this foldable smartphone.

I think that the foldable stuff in the long run is going to be used more for wearable gear than it is for the phones themselves. Think like a bracer type device or clothing like materials.

The foldable phone, i like it.

Well?

It's been out for a week now and I don't see any discussions going on. Is it really as bad as all the reviews are making it out to be? Are we talking Blackberry Storm here or what?
I'm using it. It's not bad at all. The hinge is actually pretty solid. The only downside is since it's on Verizon, you cannot unlock the bootloader.
128 views and only 1 response in two days. The silence is deafening.
There are none for sale on Swappa and less than a dozen on eBay. This does not bode well for this phone. I'd love to have one, just for the nostalgia, but I think I'll wait until they're dirt cheap.
I'm not taking shots at any of you who have one. I hope you like it and it performs to your satisfaction, but let's face it, with a stratospheric price and subpar specs, Motorola screwed the pooch on this one.
Just so you know, I had a Blackberry Storm. Even waited in line for it. The two best days were the day I got it, and the day I got rid of it.
The silence only shows that the typical XDA member didn't buy it. The reviews seem to be done by people whose use of a cellphone is atypical from the target audience of the phone. Until the international version which is unlocked becomes available there probably won't be many comments here
I agree with Kingstu. This device is probably designed more towards fashion than spec. I have to say using it is very pleasant. The material used feels very nice and it's not sluggish. However, I do hope i can get root and magisk which is probably never going to happen on this Verizon crap.
I just got mine of eBay for a decent deal. Based in the UK so no bloteware installed.
I really like it so far. I've used the galaxy fold so was interested in coming back to a small phone while in my pocket.
It's a shame its got so much negatively on YouTube but the price is too high and I hope software updates will improve the camera and make the front screen more productive.
I hope it does sell well for future versions
Price is now £399 on the Moto store.
Had it for a week and loving it... Did pick it up for $799 Australian
Just got mine, on Argentina and was really difficult to get. The external display is great but I would love this phone to be a little bit wider.
