Hi Folks, I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction here. Had my Touch Pro in my official HTC case clipped to my belt. When I am in the car it unclips itself sometimes from my belt and this happened yesterday.
Got out of the car and if fell onto the ground and got scratched. Bottom right front of the case (plastic) is scratched and the top front right (metal) is scratched.
Still dont see how it managed to get scratched as it was still in the case.
Can I buy a new case or will HTC replace my case if I pay for the repair.

I just ordered the body glove case online but having second thoughts after seeing pictures of the case-mate tough case. I'm more worried about dropping my phone since I think the body glove would just dismantle and crack itself if I drop my phone. With the case-mate, it looks more protected since the rubber is enclosed with a harder external casing. Can you guys post pictures if you could of the two cases, and what your experience been like using each one of the cases if you bought one.
Thanks!
I have the Body Glove case which I bought online. The day I tried putting it on the phone, I ended up breaking one of the tabs that snap the front to the back cover. Seems to me that the case doesn't really fit the phone like it should. Even now when I push down on the corner that is broken, there is still a gap between the front and back cases.
And since it is supposed to be tough to get this case off (refer to the Body Glove thread), I don't think it will snap open if dropped.
I have the snap on body glove, dropped it from 4 feet on to my dining room floor and from about 3.5 feet, on to the road where it bounced downhill a bit. The case did not come off either time.
I tried both. Definitely the winner is the Case-Mate. If you read a post in
other thread, you'll find out also that the rear cover of the body glove causes
some kind of scratch around the speakerphone and the camera. Not worth it!
don't get the two tone body glove. I had one and it was a b**ch to get off. I was scared that my phone was going to break because the case wouldn't freaking move. It's also tough to put on, and if like me, you got the one from the t-mobile store, it doesn't even fit right. there's an annoying gap in it that gathers dust and crap.
In addition, when I took it off, there were indentations near the headphone jack and near the bottom of the phone.
I returned mine today.
I was just looking at the case mate tough case, and does it have holes for the various microphones around the sensation's body?
What do people know about this product? Worth the cheez? Waste of time?
I'd like to put something on my phone until Otterbox arrives.

I got one on the backside of my phone.
Definitely has prevented scratching of the plastic piece that covers the battery compartment.
Doesn't cover the silver piece that comes down from the camera in the center.
Best thing we got until a proper case comes out.
I didn't like the front one, though, and used a different, thicker screen protector on the actual screen ( so yea, I bought two sets of screen protectors for one phone...)
I went ahead and purchased a Body Glove from the T-mobile store. They sent me a $25.00 gift card that I used towards the purchase price and I ended up paying about $6.00. It's a 2-piece deal that seems to work pretty well so far. the back cover is a rubberized panel that covers the entire rear half of the phone with a slot that leaves the camera lens exposed. it's thick enough to protect it from scratches assuming you don't keep your keys in the same pocket. The front is just a plastic frame that keeps the screen from touching any flat surface you might lay it on. The whole thing adds just a little weight to the phone and just enough thickness to make it comfortable in your hands too.
I was pretty pleased with the bodyguardz "full" protection I had on my G2. the screen protector itself was pretty awful, but the rest of the cover for the phone was good. (full in quotes because it left a few exposed corners)
I took it off when I sold the G2 and the phone looked brand spankin' new.. so I guess it did its job!
would buy again, although I think I will be okay with just a pouch with this phone.. not too worried about the plastic getting too beat up.
I had some on my Touch pro that I used for several years. The smaller pieces eventually peeled off and or changed color. But it did save my phone from several scratches over the years.
How is the back on that bodyglove case? The one I saw in the online store has a clip on the back. Does that protrude much? The case I bought doesnt offer a whole lot of extra room, and I'm not sure if my phone would fit with this thing on it.
I forgot about the clip-SORRY!!!! There's an option to attach the clip to it but you don't have to. it fits just fine in the pocket
note about the bodyglove- Since I recieved my new Anker battery (awesome so far) I've been having to remove and replace the back cover and I've noticed the grips on the corners have been scratching the phone just underneath the bezel. Not cool man...
Will the HP Touchpad with a full body invisibleshield fit in the case that HP is selling? I'm kind of paranoid about scratches, but I want the nice sophistication of the case as well.
Yes, I have a TP with InvisibleShield, and it comes to just within about 1-2mm from the edge of the glass. The HP "snap on" case does not touch the glass or the screen protector.
My only gripe with HPs case is the front flap doesn't have anything to keep it closed, and due to the way you must position the TP on the Touchstone dock to charge, the flap falls open. You have to set it on the left hand edge, the hinge side, or the bottom edge with the button, which causes the flap to sag and get bent out of shape. I'll probably try a small velco button attached to the screen, but of course that would ruin the screen protector if it got in the way and annoyed me.
Given the great work that HP put into this, with a lot of great ideas around usability, and appearance, it is really a shame that they didn't place a couple of small magnets inside the corners of the TP and the case flap. Even the packaging for the TP, the case, the dock, all designed well (IMHO) with consistency and probably to help you feel better about spending (what was previously) a lot of money on the whole kit.
I'm not just talking about the screen protector. I'm talking about the full body invisibleshield for the HP Touchpad. Sorry if I was not clear.

Fold the flap behind the TouchPad so it is between the back and the Touchstone. That's what I do!
Anyways, there should be enough room in the case to allow for the back shield. I would definitely be careful when taking it off, though!
I have a Armor Suit carbon fiber shield on my TP and it does fit in the official HP case. It is a tight squeeze, and I would not recommend taking it in and out of the case very often.
Hello all..
So, after I broke the screen on my Desire(the corner of the screen was bent-shattered by a jeans-pocket), I felt it was time for some sort of cover. I browsed through many, looking for a case that would protect the handsets backside as well as being tall enough to take the hit it the phone fell face-down.
I ended up getting the Case-Mate Tough case, from MyTrendyPhone. This order had my repair supplies (New screen and some screwdrivers) as well and they came within 3 days after ordering.
And I have to say, that I'm not disappointed.
The case is quite expensive for what it is, but it does it's job extremely well.
First goes on the silicone cover, followed by the hard plastic cover. The plastic part snaps into place easily, when alinged with the volume-buttons.
It's also tall enough on the front to take a hit when dropped face down, around a good 3-5mm from the glass.
The case has cutouts for the audio jack, microUSB and microphone. The volume and power buttons have their own places in the silicone part.
My only gripe with the case is that both ends of the phone are not covered by the hard plastic, and being only silicone there, when pulling out of a tighter pocket, they might bend, or even possibly tear the silicone apart.
I'd give this case 4.5/5, because of the not-complete plastic covering, and the price, but it's still an extremely protective case, doing it's job well.
Like the package says, "Think Rambo, only pocket sized."
IMHO
I ordered a Case-Mate Tough two weeks ago but I was disapointed because the the holes for the buttons don't fit exactly. After a day I returned the case and ordered the Otterbox Commuter which arrived yesterday and fits perfect.
What do you mean with the "holes for the buttons"? There are no holes for any buttons on this case..
I mean the holes in the hardcover part.
Ahh.. Now I understand. You might have just got a bad one because mine align perfectly.
Maybe, just want to say that.
Hi, I can only really find the book style leather cases for my p30 Pro, i really like the front flip ones, does anyone know of any good ones?
Thanks
James
Yet to see a front flip for the P30 Pro, have a look on Aliexpress. If you can't find it on there then it probably doesn't exist. Front flip cases have been in decline for a few years now.
Make sure to have a screen protector on when using a flip case. My friend bought one from china (cheap type), and now his phone has quite a few light scratches on the screen due to dust and dirt being stuck in the inner part of the flip cover rubbing against the phone screen.
