my bad it is already here

WooHoo!!! This is the case I have been looking for. I had seen one of the Crystal Clear jobbies for the iPaq 19xx series recently and really liked the fit and appearance.
I actually already have a Proporta Alu case but the impact on the singal strength was too high and I just don't use it anymore.
I have placed my order, which is showing as out of stock, and will now wait patiently for my new Crystal Clear case to arrive.
(The international shipping is a BARGIN!!!)
Please tell me if you are satisfied with it, im thinking of ordering it to...
I was expecting the signal strenght to be low, with the alucase. So im glad i didnt order, untill someone made a complain about it
i'm waiting for danielalvers to buy it and tell us how it is
The latest update from Proporta
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for your mail.
Proporta's Crystal case (XDAII) is currently in development. We are
expecting them to arrive with us by the begining of June, and will send your
product out to you immediately they arrive with us .
I hope this clears things up and many thanks for your patience.

Looks like a wait of a few weeks at least.
Umm, but i got this answer yesterday!
Yes, Proporta's Crystal cases are in stock and delivery to Sweden should take around 3-4 working days. These cases provide crystal clear protection that's unbelievably tough and leaves your PDA on display.

but the mail which said end of june had the name xda2 in it did your mail have that aswell ?
i canceled that order, and went for the Aluminium Case instead..
Atleast now i know what im getting :lol:
Skenliv
As mentioned I too purchased the alu case from Proporta. Unfortunately I found it also had a considerable impact on the signal strength so have stopped using it.
I hope it works out for you
hrm, proporta promised that it wouldnt have that impact on the signal strenght... Well if it does, i want all my money back and another case.
I have a metal case, love the secuirty, hate always having to open the flap to see what is going on ie. making a call or receiving a call.
I'm going to try out a plastic case when the come available locally
Hi guys,
I just ordered one yesterday. I've got no idea when it will delivered. I'll post my findings here.
Wouter
I´d be writing a review as soon as i have the time. I have got my Aluminium Case now.
To follow this post
I use a Proporta alu case for the moment.
I'm interrested with the cristal case, so I'm waiting about Wouter'answer
i ordered it aswell but my order is just hanging with out of stock
maybe they dont have it at all and are just probing the market and will make it if they get enough orders ?
I use the proporta alu case at the mo, but i ordered the crystal case 6 weeks ago and they keep telling me there is no stock and should be in stock soon.
Hi,
I'm too waiting for A plastic case.
For information, there is another plastic case manufactured by Javoedge (who allready are selling xdaII JavoSkin case). It's named JAVOClearCase.
You'll get more info on Javoedge site, here.
Unfortunately, it's not allready available (can see it at the bottom of the page). Also coming soon...

I've canceled my Clear case order with proporta.
Ordered 18-06
Round 01-07 they promised to start delivering round 15-7
last week they said it would take until end of july
What I hate most is that they only inform you when you supplied payment details and confirmed the order. (good thing is that they dont let you pay in advance!)
I'l just wait which one comes first: JAVOEdge or Proporta and order again.
Indeed international shipping with Proporta is a bargain.
ive been waiting since they 1st advertised them looks like they lied and aint even began shipping yet still waiting to this day
I'm still waiting as well. I had originally been told by Proporta that they would ship at the start of July and now I have been told it will be near the end of July.
I would cancel my order immediately if I could find another company selling a similar product. I guess I am just going to have to stick with the standard case unit my order gets filled.

First of all HTC backtrack as they are now too stingy to include the pouch for the diamond with the phone itself.
Then nowhere, and I mean NOWHERE has any of the damn cases in stock. I placed an order with Expansys and now it says 25 days estimated wait for delivery. No other mobile vendor has any in stock and are only taking preorders with no ETA.
Just what the hell is going on? Who is going to put a touch diamond in their pocket with no protection? Why were HTC not prepared for this?
Anyone know of any place that has one in stock? Im based in the UK. I dont want the one with a belt clip.
my diamond has no scratches and is always in my pocket.
maybe coz im careful not to put anything else in the pocket i ahve my touch diamond in
get a rubber case of ebay
i have had one on my trinity for 2 years now
the phone still looks like new
or you can get something like this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Krusell-Orbit...hash=item370066715175&_trksid=p3286.m14.l1318
Well I rang Expansys, and just as I thought - they have over 600 backorders for this. Which leads me to ask again.. were HTC not prepared for this??!
I can understand your complaints..but..
have you considered sth like that? That's what I got:
http://wmexperts.com/reviews/cases/review_golla_parrot_case.html
It's fantastic + can be used as a wallet too
I got the green camo one for 15 euros.
probably O2 Germany bought all of the first production. They sold much over 1000 diamonds, all WITH the HTC case.
The case is very nice and worth waiting for.
not before 22 days at expansys for me
Do they have the right to delay like that?? How can I cancel my order, I can't find the option on their website?
Ordered this on Monday. Arrived this morning.

A bit expensive, compared to the HTC case, but I'm happy with it so far. Very nice construction and materials.

Looks really great!!! It's a pity the black version is currently not available :-( I have to wait. I think those cases are better than the original pouch
The are indeed very nice (beyza case). It is lined with a velvet type material which helps clean the screen. I have no idea if cleans better than the OEM case, but its better than nothing.
Also...it is a pretty tight fit, so I don't know if a extended battery would fit. If anyone has any questions they want to ask me about the case, shoot me a PM.

My Orange UK diamond came with the official case/wallet for the handset
I bought me again a pytom leather case. Swiss top quality. I had them already for the Tytn2 and liked them very much.
Go and check them out: I got mine within 2 days. But I live in Switzerland. They use very fine leather and inside it has a material that cleans it.
I got myself the Cosa Nostra, nice one!
www.pytom.ch
I purchased this one from eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-LEATHER-H...ryZ20336QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
But I am only using it temporarily until the Krusell case comes to expansys.
BTW have you taken a look at the "Bloody Mary" case! LoL
https://pytom.ch/de_CH/f/htc-touch-diamond/mobile/simple/bloody-mary/
I ordered a pdair case as it looks gorgeous and there's not too much of a 'lip' near the control panel. It's also got a removable belt clip. The free pouch is pretty useless anyway unless you want to have to keep pulling out and putting back your phone every time you want to use it. I went for a flippy cover as they're more practical (hence not 'free').
The only truly decent 'free' case I've ever seen with an HTC device is the one with the Advantage.

You cannot find any diamond cases in the UK because HTC decided to screw over offline buyers and give all the cases away to Orange customers.
I finally managed to buy one of those HTC diamond cases. It is pretty nice but don't confuse it with the one on youtube with the release mechanism (pressing the two edges and the diamond pops out). The HTC case doesn't have that. In addition you can you can insert the device in the case only from one side. The other one is blocked by a something like a cloth rubber stripe (not the best explanation).
Even though I had some concerns regarding how steady the device would be in it, the case actually holds it really firmly.
It looks like they've got a decent amount of Nexus stuff.

This is what I went with for mine:
Crystal Skin
Should be similar to the ones that were popular with the myTouch / Magic. The resin TPU ones.
And for screen protectors I will see if these are any good. Seems to be an invisible shield / BSE clone.
As long as they hold up until more accessories become available I'm fine.
I don't think the cases from fommy are good because some of the cases block the proximity sensor on the phone.
I've had the resin TPU one on my magic for quite some time, and its the best I have ever used. It doesnt add alot of weight to the phone, and lso one of the easiest to install.
I really hope somebody comes out with a carbon fiber case, that would be sweet.
I am getting the privacy screen protector from Fommy and I'll post back my findings on the sucker.
It'll be cool if moshi comes out w/ something. My friend has one for her iphone and it looks sweet! It is very stream-lined and doesn't make your phone any fatter. I typically hate cases. However, I think what moshi has looks pretty sweet.

That skin looks pretty cool. Care to share any pics of it installed onto your phone when you have a moment?
I know in the past people were saying that magnetic closures messed up the G1's compass over time. Is that turning out to be true? I would think the N1 and any other phone with a compass would suffer the same fate if that is the truth. I like having my compass..
I bought the Ferrari car charger from that site. I ain't get it yet but when I will, ill post a review.
never order from fommy! i had the worst experience with them. i ordered the screen protector and the clear case (both were pre-order).. and also another screen protector for my N97.. later realized they didnt have the cheapest deals.. wanted to cancel the order the same day i ordered them. called customer service, noone picked up. tried a hundred times.. emailed them as well to no avail. come monday, i get a confirmation email that one of the items was shipped. argh! finally after calling nonstop, a customer rep finally picked up. I can only be refunded for the two items that hasn't shipped yet.

Sorry to hear you had such a bad experience with fommy. I on the other hand had no problem with the site. I had no problem calling them and asking them and speaking to a representative.
What about the battery they have...That doesnt look like the right battery! It says it fits 3-4 phones....Dosent look right...What do yall think?
Be very careful ordering from Fommy
Anyone with a few minutes should take a look at this forum thread. It is a long thread and I don't expect anyone to read it all. The bottom line is Fommy does not have much of a credibility when it comes to their salespeople.

Yesterday I ordered a ZAGG skin, only to find out that they have been back-ordered. The CC said "quality issues", but I'm not sure what is really causing this (maybe the complaints about the screen cover size that we've seen here?)
Also, the BSE for G2 is now available! Requested them to make a skin last weekend, and got a reply that it is now official! As usual, they are offering a small discount.
http://www.bestskinsever.com/t-mobile-htc-g2-skin
Wow, for only $7 too. Way cheaper than Zagg's 25.
i ordered one last night around midnight and I got a delivery confirmation...so im guessing that means I'm gonna get one of the oversized ones? bummer
are the bse as good of quality as zagg?
i was going to order from zagg last night as well-- hopefully they back in stock soon so i can use my discount
in 4 1 thank you

i had BSE full-body on my G1 for a long time and it was awesome - kept the phone like brand new. eventually (like, after a year) it started getting a little grimy along the edges, but for like $7 i should have just bought another then. instead i took it off, the novelty of the G1 having faded.
anyway, i just placed my order for the full-body BSE. can't wait to have it so i can feel safer about throwing my G2 in my purse (along with scratchifying keys, pens, etc.). i refuse to pay the exorbitant zagg prices. i don't need a kit either. bse comes with clear instructions, so if you're careful and patient, it goes on perfectly.

Does the BSE full body catch a lot of lint? Lots of screenshots I've seen always show it with tons of lint and dust.

not really, no. just a little inevitably is going to stick along the edges where the skin is cut, but no lint or anything on the face of the phone with BSE. i think it's the same material as zagg, so presumably equivalent results. a little orange peel style dimpling as well, but also to be expected on these kinds of things.
that said, i've never actually used the zagg so i could be missing out!

For the Z5 its already ready to preorder, Z5 Compact is coming soon.
I will preorder as soon as possible.
Have you used one of those cases before? I am interested, but the last bumper style case I had was too sloppy. This one looks like it will bolt down better.
Yes, they aren't, it makes the phone a bit bigger, but it looks awesome and you can drop the phone without any crack. It fits Very good. They said it comes in the next week's.
Hello
It's available
http://www.twdevilcase.com/en/index.php?menu=prod_detail&mid=1&did=1&pid=5122&list=class
It does look nice but in don't get how it protects your phone without being bumpy. I would not put on a pure metal helmet for protection when riding a bike...?
I preordered today
So is this really worth 49 (!!!!!) USD?
I can tell you when it arrive
Had on z3c.
Best bumper money can buy for the Z range.
Far superior to any other option.
Pricey but you gain complete piece of mind in knowing your device is utterly protected on all sides and edges 100%
(Add a Tempered glass front and back and your totally protected!)
does it provide better grip?
any alternative where to buy this bumper? dont want to pay 16$ to get it delivered to germany..
maybe in five months on amazon :S
Got mine (red) + front protection.
Very nice, heavier for sure but this provides a better hand manipulation.
not a good grip neither on side nor bottom. So it is more esthetic & shock protection.
I received it with a hard front glass protection. After 10 tries, i could not place it to not get any buble. So I guess it could not fit perfectly. at the 10th try, my finger went behind and all was finished, uncleanable fingerprints...
I regret that the model for Z5c is more square form than Z5, which is more in a arc form, that provides much better hand manipulation, and so nice.
It arrived today and its fantastic.
Term
How long does it take until you received it? I ordered one but 7 days has past I still haven't received anything
1 month for me
ordered end november and received end december
Yes 1 month
Aluminium bumpers don't affect signal quality? According to this topic, they affect a little the signal strength.
Didnt notice any signal drop

Signal dropped from -81dBm to -91dBm. Speedtest (tested 3 times) showed no difference though.
I'm not much of a fan of cases but I would love to put on a wrap on my 6p. Does anyone one of a company that might make a rubbery type wrap kind of like the feel of the back of the Nexus 5?
Don't know much about wraps, but the Diztronic TPU case feels just like the N5. It's a bit bulky and I take it on and off depending on the situation, but I've gotten more than one complement on what is a very basic black case.
Not to hijack your post, but on Slickwraps website, there are some wraps that show the fingerprint sensor covered as well, has anyone done this? Does it work ok?

Dbrand > Slickwraps
I use the Spigen's Thin Fit cover and I feels slightly rubbery, very similar to the back of the nexus 5.
Check both Dbrands and Slickwraps. I recently got the concrete skin from Dbrands but I am not to happy with them. When I order something from Slickwraps, it normally comes in a pretty timely fashion. DBrands took almost a week to just release my order. I got an email saying it was released from their Toronto facility, but when it arrived, it was sent from New York?
I wanted exactly the same thing, slickwraps didn't work, but dbrand natural series leather is working really nicely for me. Not quite the same as the Nexus 5,but adds softness and grip.

Yeah I agree. They shipped mine to a wrong address, blamed me, then took several emails to get them to resend it. The product itself is really nice though.

Go ahead and look at a map for once in your life. Tell me where Toronto is and where New York is. I'll wait.
They're Canadian. It's obvious to anyone who has ever opened a book that they use the USPS in NY to ship to their American customers.
I also had a package lost in transit, but they not only sent another one out within a couple days, they added an extra skin to the original order. I wasn't happy that it got lost, but they definitely made up for it with good CS.
Well that was a nice little volatile response. It just seemed odd to me that it took them almost a week to release my order. So the central office is in Toronto, and the warehouses are in New York? And crap..Toronto is in Canada? I could have sworn it was a suburb in New Zealand!
