Hi XDA,
I have 3 official OnePlus 5 cases I would like to give away. They are the official Karbon, Ebony, and Rosewood cases. Image of the 3 cases: https://imgur.com/X9Cp6I8
They're unused and have just been sitting on my shelf for a while. I received them as part of the reviewer's kit but have no need for them. Rather than having them continue to sit on my shelf, I will give them away to anyone who wants them. The only catch is that you'll have to pay for shipping.
I will pack the cases in a padded envelope and send it to you if you live in the U.S. Just send me a DM if you're interested. I will give preference to RC/RD and other recognized members.
Cheers!
Case sent to Awkydee. Enjoy!

That's pretty kind of you, if everybody would give the things they don't use to people who would use them, we'd live in a far better world.
I'm living in europe, else i would have gone for it, i'll keep my cheap aliexpress one
Damn, always wanted the wooden ones, but as previos poster, I live in europe. Pity on me! Anyway, that is really nice of you!

Still rocking the official Karbon case, it's damn sturdy. Would've definitely loved either one of the other two, but I'm halfway across the world in India. Thanks for the offer though!
Still have this. Only got DMs from 3 people, still waiting to hear back from them.
I left a message on your inbox, im happy to pay for the shipping, im still rocking my 1+5

UPDATE 2/25 1:10 PM: STILL NEED A CASE?
FYI - IT2Steve is an xda member - see thread. He is becoming the USA's major supplier of all gtab accessories. Rumor has it he has cases left (including prototypes and leather ones)
You have to create an account and sign up for his mailer list on his new store: www.electroniccrap.com/store
UPDATE 2/24 1:18 AM
Thank you everyone for working with me on this sale! I now have receipts out to everyone who made it for the first 28 cases.
I have one left - the slightly damaged one for $18. It is truly only slight damage. I have one person in line for it, and no others yet.
I am very sorry for those who did not make it in time. I really wish I had a lot of money and could have bought a few hundred of these...
ENJOY YOUR NEW CASES!!
_____________________________________________________
I have 30 of the gpad/zpad covers coming from China. They have shipped today.
Please post your interest - I will take official requests once I have them in hand - first come, first serve.
This is the case referred to as M1 by IT2Steve --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943981
Here is the link sent by another xda member as well who did the investigation and ordered one first --> http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=6517573&id=600276957
I am hoping to have them in 5-7 days.
_____________
UPDATE:
Okay!! It's official. 30 cases all sitting here (minus 1 that is mine)! My whole basement smells of pleather and I love it!
I have personally looked at all 30. All of them are essentially identical. I have only noticed that some fit a little tighter then others, so you have to work it in a little. All the holes line up correctly. Not every one of them has the camera "PERFECTLY" in the hole, but I have found none of them that cover it or interfere. I picked a tighter one that caused the top strap to pucker up, but it's already settled down.
Final Price = $26 (includes the shipping charge) ***was $25, but most of first shipment was $1 more then I had estimated (sorry)***
Please no international orders (sorry guys - would love to help but all of these are gonna be gone quick and it's more work then I want to try and ship beyond local borders - If you choose to set up a freight forward, then that is up to you, as long as the address is US).
FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE, PRIVATE MESSAGE ME WITH YOUR PAYPAL ACCOUNT USERNAME AND YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS.
**** DO NOT POST YOUR ORDER TO THIS THREAD, I WILL NOT BE WATCHING IT ****
You have 24 hours to respond to the receipt or I will give yours to the next available person. Please only order the quantity equal to gtabs you own. I want to be fair to all the gtab customers waiting for these. Please be fair. These are "As is" - I am not a store, no warranty implied, no returns.
One case came in with a 1/8" scrape that went through the pleather (inside right bottom below gtab menu buttons). I am offerring this case for $18 - IF YOU WANT IT, PLEASE STATE THAT IN THE MESSAGE. If you receive a receipt for full amount, then I already sold the discounted item.
Everything is shipping USPS priority and I will do my very best to get these out within a day of payment receipt.
ENJOY!!!

Hi,
I'd like to get one. How much it is.
Are they Modified??
Have these been modified at all show the power button and the Back button more clearly? or are they just the stock version and still blocked a little?
Thanks
I am interested. How much do you project it will be?
I am interested in one as well as long as the price is reasonable
Please read the threads and review the links I gave. This is final version zpad case (not a protoype). All the holes should be cut perfectly, just the USB/Micro SD is covered by side strap.
Once I have them, I will post my official review and comments.
Right now I am estimating $18-$19 for the case. Final price $22 - $25 depending on shipping. I have to go to the post office and get the official amount.
Be sure to watch this thread. AS SOON AS I GET THEM, I WILL POST "FIRST COME FIRST SERVE"
At that time I will take private messages getting your Paypal address, and shipping information. I will then provide a receipt for payment to the given address. If a receipt goes unanswered for 24 hrs, I will forfeit it and allow the next one in line a chance for one.
This is all new to me and I am just trying to help everyone out. All I ask is be patient with me as I have a 10 hour day job too. I am not trying to make money on these, this will be at my cost.
Would like one as well. Rather than coming back here to repost, would you consider taking orders now - I would not mind pre-paying you for it. Thanks.
At that price I am definitely in. I am concerned that I would not be checking the forum when it hits, so I woul be glad to pay for it now and make sure I get it. I'll Paypal anytime you are ready.
I am in as well
I'm in also.
I'm in... My P3 is a little too much prototype for me
I'm IN please. Thanks
I'm in for that price.
I'm in as well!! let us know when they do become available.
Sign me up too. Regarding what a PP asked, can we reserve one early? I'm away on business and will be unable to check either the forum or my e-mail very often.
Thanks
Im interested. standing by for your updated post..

I googled gtablet shell and found this link
http://www.dhgate.com/new-designed-...-case/p-ff8080812d3be2aa012d66674a8513ab.html
I wonder if we can buy these elsewhere. It says designed for gtablet. But this is only to buy a quantity of 50. Maybe someone else is selling them. I'd really love to have a protective shell for the gtab.
I love a hard shell too. I love my otterbox case for my ipod. I wish they made them for the gtablet too.
Looks like most colors are out of stock
I need this really bad but not pink or red
Maybe if we can get 50 people here interested we can coordinate a group buy.
I'm in for pink!

Group buy anyone?
**Update **
These are currently not in production yet, the supplier in China is still in the prototyping stage. I will update here as I hear more.
I'd be in for one or two, but I'm not going to be the one to leave the massages.
I would be in for two as well
Blue, black or red
Would be nice if something can getworked out
I'd be in for one. Let me know if anyone is able to get something worked out.
I'd also be in for one.. black preferred
I might be willing to bite the bullet and order these for the group, as I am sure I could sell the rest of on eBay without getting the full 50 people. But I think I would rather purchase from the original Zec store and spend a couple more dollars.
I am looking at a total lot cost of $421.05 right now making each item $8.421 for the group buy. Is everyone okay with that cost? If so I might order them on Tuesday (April 20th) when I get paid again.
I sent a message asking if we can get the wholesale lot in a couple different colors. I will post and let everyone know what I hear back.

Well, remember we need shipping too. So assuming these things are around 4-5 oz each we are probably looking at around $2 to ship them. I will let you guys know the exact price once I have them in hand.

A TPU Shell would be great. Wonder when that comes out ?
Keep you eye. I have to keep silent. Otherwise XDA administrator will warn me again. They said I was in advertising.
I am in the ATL and got a chance to run by Case-Mate's headquarters today. Got some good info. they have altered all of their Galaxy S2 cases to have 1 cutout on the top and they are now universal for the AT&T model and the European model. They have the POP cases and Tough cases ready to go. The website was not updated yet though.
I grabbed a Tough Case today. I was surprised to see it is actually thinner than the Pop and the Otterbox Commuter (they had one for comparison). It has nice rounded edges and great feel in the hand. I have tried the AGP, Ballistic, Pop and Belkin and none of them worked for me. This one seems to hit the spot. I will try and post pics later.

Guys, just call them on their 800 #. They have a whole team of CSRs that will process your order right away. I went into the call center and they handled my order for me. That is the reason for my post. They have hem available now with the large cutout on top. All their GS2 cases are now modified. I saw black and white Pop cases modified, Tough Cases modified and the Barely Theres are already ok.
I like it better than the Otterbox for this phone. The rest of my family all have Defenders for their IP4s. I am a huge Otterbox fan. I tried the Tough for my Inspire and IP4 and did not like it nearly as much as the Commuters for both of those phones. The GS2 Tough is a different story. I like it much better than the Commuter. Its thinner and has better grip. Fit is awesome.
I am on the road traveling and cannot take any pics because the SGS2 is my only camera. I guess I could takes pics of just the case an upload them.
pics of just the case will do! thanks!
I just called and also did the live chat online and both people told me that they won't be available until early November .

Here are a few pics. The case is awesome. I have been using it on the phone while traveling and its working out great. Had a co-worker comment on the fell of it when I handed him my phone. Buttons are easier to press than without the case. The case is fairly hard to install since it is so form fitting. Surprisingly it does not add much bulk.
To the poster above that contacted them. Sorry but you got an uninformed rep. The only way we figured this out was by physically getting the cases from their warehouse. I ask them to bring out the cases so I could see if I could alter them to make them work with my phone. To her surprise and mine, they already were set up to work for the AT&T versions. Pics prove it below and I did not touch this case. Hopefully you can tell. No reason to lie.

I talked to a rep and I also talked to a person in live chat, so I got two of them that are uninformed. I also sent them an email again making sure. I want to make sure I am sent the right one the first time. I am going to email them again. Do you mind if I use your picture for reference in my email?
My GF got a pink "Pop!" and it was for international version so she called and got the same sort of response. That they don't and won't have any cases except the ones that are at the AT&T store because they signed an exclusivity agreement to only sell the cases in stores or some BS. Bottom line is that they fed her the same thing, no cases for the AT&T SGS2 for a while. Whatever. Case looks good though bud, I might get one of those when they do come out to replace my Pop! as it is just a little big.
I don't mind if you use my pic at all. I will say after reading abacon15's post, I am beginning to wonder if I was the one that had the uninformed rep. She may have sold me a case she was not supposed to sell.
One more thing, my case came in the normal green and clear Case-Mate box. It was not AT&T branded packaging. No screen protector though. Not sure if it should have had one of those. I haven't looked on the website.

I get my upgrade in December and am looking to get the Galaxy S 2. I am using a Tough Case on my Inspire and love it. It has proven itself to as an extremely good case. I had it drop and hit concrete 5 times and the only thing it did was put a crack in the polycarbonate hardshell right next to the flash. I also work with tires all day and I would need this case for protection.

Ok, the automated response is ridiculous. We have confirmation from a guy who was actually at their home office and they still wanna play the automated/rehearsed response crap. That alone would make me buy the international version and be done with it.

I emailed Carved to see if they'd be producing cases for the Nexus 6 since they currently make cases for the N5 and this is what I got back:
"We are continuing to add new products to the Nexus line. Please keep checking our site for updates!"
That sounds like a yes to me! Not sure how many people like/use these cases but their N5 cases look great in person. I got a buddy with a cedar case for his N5 and it's great looking plus feels good in the hand. They're wooden backed with a snap on hard plastic rubber edge and you can choose from a variety of design/wood types. They're not the most durable cases but if you're into cases that are borderline art, these are for you. I can't post links yet, this is actually my first post, but if you visit carved.com and click 'shop' you'll see a link to their current N5 case selection.
Sweet cases! How bulky are they? Is hard to tell from the pictures on their site.

They're pretty low profile. I didn't have another N5 case to compare it to but the carved case didn't add a lot of extra bulk.
I have never heard of these cases before, but now I must have one. I really hope they add the Nexus 6 to their line.
Oh very nice! I'll get bamboo on my N6 after all. and they take bitcoin!!
That huge phone with a real wood back, or one of those puzzles... Sweet. I'm glad I swung in here today and found out about Carved.

Of a particularly relevant note here--they apparently do base what phones they offer cases for based on user demand, so it's actually kind of important to leave them a comment at http://www.carved.com/contact-us explaining why it would be a Good Idea to make a case for the Nexus 6. (One thing I did note to them is that--with a difference in scale, of course--the same template would be usable on the Moto X 2nd Gen AND the new Droid Turbo as pretty much all the Motorola phones are on the same rough body build. It does help in my case that I've built tooled leather cases for non-phone stuff, so I do kind of know what is involved in making a good case design. )

and a facebook post also on the facebook fan page! I want an Ironside full wood case..that would be so awesome! love their work! their art! the skateboard one and the live ones also look cool...the ebony ones too..the full ones..i don't want no inlay one...i want that full wood look!! ha...yeah...love the art!
I've never been one to use cases on my phones but these are really nice. I've been intrigued about these wood finishes since I've seen the bamboo back option for the Moto X. Might have to pick one of these up. I'll shoot them an email to help them gauge demand.
looks like it may not be happening right away...
Hi iomthd,
Thank you for your interest in Carved! At this time, we do not make a case for the Nexus 6. It may be an avenue we pursue in the near future! Please keep checking our website and Instagram for updates.

I bought 2 solid wood cases for me and my wifes Note 3's and both cases broke within 2 weeks really bummed me out because that case always got people's attention. It was not from carved.com so i don't know if there solid wood offering would be more durable.
Man I hope they come out with some soon.
So I submitted a request through Carved's website. My submission is in bold. Their response is in italics.
First, why are you contacting us?: Are you going to make a case for...
What device do you want us to make a case for?: Nexus 6
In your most convincing voice, tell us why we should make a case for your device??: This device is awesome and is very popular! So popular in fact, that it's been pretty much sold out since its release! It's being sold on all four major carriers and I would love to see one of your beautiful cases surrounding my device. If you make it, I will buy a lot.
Hi Robert,

The case they use for the nexus 5 appears to be a ringke slim.
Such a shame that Carved still haven't brought out a case for the N6. Has anyone found a good alternative elsewhere?

Have you checked out the natural wood skins from slickwraps?
Just received this from them.
Hi David,
Thank you for your interest in Carved! At this time, we are in the process of designing cases for the Nexus 6. I do not currently have an estimated time that they will be released.
Please keep checking our website and Instagram for updates.
Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.
Thanks!

Hi James,
Thank you for your interest in Carved! At this time, we do not make a case for the Nexus 6 but we are in the process of getting our designs ready for the Nexus 6. We will probably release a Nexus 6 case in the next two months. Please keep checking our website and Instagram for updates.
Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.

I wanted to let you know that Carved.com asked me to beta test a Nexus 6 case on the 25th, it should be here in the next day or two, not sure what the rules are about testing it so I will confirm if I can post pics and comment on it. But I wanted to share that it is making progress.
I decided to make a dedicated thread, as in two other threads a few people were interested. Currently, what looks to be the best fitting tempered glass screen protector is available only in Japan. In both black and white. I have no clue on what price we can get, but I will leave this topic up for a week, and if we can get enough people interested, I will contact the manufacturer and attempt to set a deal.
Some links of the screen protector.

I'm interested assuming it actually fits the way that it should.
Edit: it looks like the price on their shop is around 32$ USD if you convert the currency. That's not bad if it works plus it looks nice. Its too bad iloome never came around and made one just like this.
I'd register an interest, but (1) I'd like to know whether it actually works - all we have to go on so far is the advertising material, and (2) I'm based in the UK, so a shipped-to-US deal doesn't help me.
If somebody on here could try one and confirm that it works, and they would ship to the UK (or ideally worldwide, given the global nature of this forum) then I'd certainly buy one.

No one is able to get just one, and if they ship to US we can forward to UK no problem. Currently, unless we find someone who lives in Japan and has an N6, willing to buy one to review it.. We have to trust the advertised video. However, I have never been disappointed with any products coming from Japan.. The Chinese knock-off.. well I wouldn't trust, although someone purchased one and will write a review once it arrives.
Just read the Chinese knock off is plastic, too bad I ordered it already...very disappointed
In for black one. We need this.

That sux.. Do let us know more when you receive it though.
I'm interested in this. When would the trigger be for the order? After we reach XX interests?
I'd be in for one possibly two
I'm hoping this will work out and not be sh*tty because that would make a lot of people unhappy. I wonder if there is a way they can send a sample over for someone to test if we are doing a large order.

I will contact the company and see what we need to move forward with this and would be happy to hand over the money+logistics handling to any established member.
One more interested, both black and white.
I am interested too. Looks great!
