I can't find my N1 sleeve. Does anyone want to go give/sell me their sleeve if you don't use it?
Can I buy one anywhere online?
EDIT: I'm willing to trade my unused black Innocase for the Android sleeve.

Hehe, thanks buddy. Unfortunately, I've looked everywhere with no luck. The sleeve is a necessity for me since I refuse to use a case or screen protector.
Get a new sleeve? Something lightweight and not leather. It'll likely be a while before Google starts selling those in their store, if they ever get around to it, and I'm only letting go of mine if you pry it out of my cold, dead hands.
I lost my sleeve too! I remember exactly where I lost it, but it's not there. Doesn't really make sense huh?
I got this one to replace it (I hope I find the original!)

What's your address? You're not a black belt in some martial art, are you?
Have you shot off an email to google support?

I have not. Worth a shot, I suppose.
I can trade with you, if you still need it.
if you pay for the postage, i'll send you mine. I don't use it at all. PM me with your information.
I've missed placed mine too! pretty sure i had it in my lap while driving then when i got out of the car it fell out.
Willing to buy one from anyone who doesn't use it!

Thats my second option if I cant get my hands on a OEM sleeve. I have a laptop case from sfbags and its great quality. Customer service handled an issue with my order quickly and personally too!
Somebody please post a review of the SFbags Nexus One sleeve. I love their laptop bags (neoprene), but I'm wondering if the suede is enough shock protection.

PM'd. Thanks!
I too would be willing to buy a couple extras for those of you who don't use them. (At a reasonable price) PM me if you are interested.

No, but I surround myself with gun-toting bodyguards in black.
Wish Google'd start selling Android merchandise really, I'd be happy to shell out for an extra sleeve if mine ever gets torn/misplaced. And that Android plushie.
I'm still looking for a sleeve. I will paypal $5 for shipping if someone is willing to send me their sleeve that they don't use. I promise to pay it forward too.
... Is also after a replacement sleeve! Twitter @MatMew willing to pay a reasonable fee + shipping to Australia. Hit a brother up.

I've just ordered one from sfbags (with pocket), will see next week.
I am also dying to get original sleeve. So write as soon as you get info from customer service.
ps: I've checked under my car seats :'(
I hope I get first dibs on a stock sleeve someone is willing to give up, since I was the originator of this thread.
Now that the N1 is discontinued, has anyone had luck getting a replacement (identical or close to it) for the cute Android slip cover which came with our phones? I successfully got a replacement when I phoned HTC a few months ago (before discontinuation), but now they've redirected me to their accessories phone number.
The number they gave me points to LetsTalk.com. And they don't have anything resembling said slip cover. Am I SOL here? Any other suggestions?
I had the exact same problem. There is no place to find them online but ebay. I got a replacement and it is new and the exact quality of my old one
I can't post a link because I am a new member, but i bought my from a seller named emporiumboutique
Thanks good to know. Spare battery is a nice touch too.
I have the one that came with my N1 if you want it. Haven't used it since day 1

Tempting! I've used mine not only every day, but also for several months on my Motorola Milestone. It fits, but the squarish shape of the Milestone really stretched out the slip cover and left it a bit deformed.
Bump: Looks like I waited too long and emporiumboutique no longer offers the slip covers. Damn... any other thoughts?

Yeah I'd really rather deal with a shipper closer to home than Hong Kong. I also am suspicious of a seller who advertises a case for a Touch Pro 2 and shows a pic of a Desire in the listing.
Read all about the otter case in a review for the straight desire - the defender model it was.
I wasnt overly impressed.
So in light of this can yuo accessory experts point me what YOU think is the best usable (I.E. doesnt look like a tank or bomb shelter) case. I am thinking somethin silicon?
anyway, would really love ya expert opinions! I need to protect my phone - more frlom falls than anything else, am a fairly cluimsy 6'4'' so it has a long way to drop!
respect!

Here's a site I stumbled upon. Maybe one of these are made for you:

I made it yesterday to try and help people to decide what to get as a case for their HTC desire HD. I tried the HTC S550 pouch and 2 silicon cases. Didn't really know what I was going to say so I just started talking and showed my DHD a little with its accessories (still in love with it) but at the end I dropped my Desire HD on the floor luckily my appartment is all carpet

I bought the exact same gel case as you showed in the video (grey). I bought it from an ebaystore called Londonmagicstore. I paid 3gbp including shipping to sweden. Fast and reliable. As I don't have the DHD yet (is to be released next week in sweden) I hope it fits.

Helpfull video mate. I just ordered two silicon/gel cases from Ebay myself and they bought are coming with protective film for the screen. I am really looking forward to getting them as I am paranoid about damaging my new DHD.
Thx for the video - off to watch it now!
The best protective case by far, and the case I use on my HTC HD, Samsung Galaxy s and HTC desire, is the Pdair aluminium metal case.
http://www.pdair.com/
Unfortunately, for some strange reason, they don´t plan to make this case for HTC Dsire HD
If you are interested, drop the a mail and request that they make a aluminium case for the HTC Desire HD as well. [email protected]
Just thought I'd vouch for the eBay cases! Remember, they all come from the same factories in China, you're only paying extra for the branding 'SuperShield' 'MegaCase' etc. There are some exceptions but very few. I bought my case for £2.35 with a screen protector and it's perfect, a great fit and nice feel! I've never spent more than a couple of pounds on silicone/plastic cases or screen protectors and all of my phones remained in perfect condition months after I bought them. Will post links soon.
Regards.
Cannot see anyone being unhappy with this case..... £2.65 an absolute bargain.
eBay
Regards.
just bagged one of those from ebay - so thanks and yeah will feedback what I think of the case and protector!

£2.65? The price following that link is £29.65?
Edit: Strange, but found the cheap ones must of been a mistake!
just paid under 3 quid for it.

Now that is strange! When I click the link it says the seller has updated his listing and the price shows £29.65!!! I've emailed the seller to ask what is going on as it definitely was £2.65 this morning. Maybe the increased traffic spooked him .
Anyway just to reinforce my point regarding the branding of goods from the same Chinese source, here is CaseHut's listing for the ORB Gel Case..... look familiar?? £5.99 plus postage..... hmmmm!!
Anyway, the case fits well and gives good protection. All buttons are placed correctly and the camera lens, flash and charger port all have good access. Hope this shows that you can keep your expensive phone SAFE without breaking the bank.
Regards.
I received my silicone case I paid 2.95 for on eBay today and the quality is great the fit is perfect and it doesn't make the phone too bulky. Another thing is the case makes pressing the power and volume buttons a lot easier
So overall I am delighted with the case.

metal case here for 15 smackeroons...sems ok. anyone bought this one? Any good?
I guess the seller hopes that someone actually buys it without noticing the high price. He must know that others recommend this product, and well, sneakily tries to make huge profit....

Hi Everyone,
Just got myself a nice unlocked and unbranded Desire Z (UK) at the weekend. I remember reading that the original G1 pouch is a good fit for the Desire Z, but I seem to have misplaced mine. Is there anywhere I can get an official one cheap, or has anyone come across any nice alternatives that are similar?
I remember liking the neoprene outer and soft liner of the OEM G1 pouch, it's a shame HTC aren't shipping them with this phone.
Ebay has a ton of them for like 6 bucks, that's where I got mine for my G2

Is it decent quality though? And do you have a link to the listing?
I don't have a link on me but its the same pouch that the G1. Its the exact official pouch
Oh ok, well I am going to have a better look for mine tonight. If not I will find one on ebay.

Just do a search for oem g1 pouch
The neoprene cases by BUILT are another option you may want to consider if you can afford to pay a bit more. They're extremely well crafted (good materials and stitching) and are a perfect fit... builtny.com

The only problem with that is, I live in the UK, and I don't want to pay for ridiculous shipping costs just for a pouch.
I have ordered a cheap knock off from ebay and will see how good quality that is, if it's rubbish I will look for a better one, maybe get the one you suggest.

If you got the oem case like I linked its the one that htc sent...not a cheap generic.

I already ordered it before you posted your link, but thanks anyway, I will probably get one of those if this is crap.
Ok let me know if you can't get the oem let me know, I'm in the states but shipping something that small shouldn't be that expensive to ship to the uk.
Yeah, it should be cheap, but it's still going to be more than one from the UK. Doesn't matter anyway, i guess no one else has any pouch recommendations.
Sent from my HTC Desire Z
Has anyone seen the tmobile one for the mytouch 4g? Its leather but not bulky and has a cut out slot at the bottom I'm guessing to see the track pad flashing.. I'm using my g1 one sometimes and a sidekick one other times..seems like that one would be the best of both worlds if it fits
Might be a bit late, but if the pouch you got turned out to be crap then I highly recommend (what I think is) the official Desire Z case found at clove.co.uk http://www.clove.co.uk/htc-desire-z-po-s540-pouch-case It's a leather pouch, with a lining similar to that used in the creen sleaning cloths (so cleans you're screen when you put it in/take it out!) It's a very snug fit, excellent quality and has the HTC logo pressed on it, so I assume it's genuine. It also comes with a tab you pull to take the phone out as it's a very secure fit. I can't speak more highly of a case for a phone than this! Even if you already have one, I still recommend you check it out, it's a uk website and only £9
EDIT: £10.80 inc VAT, possibly also p+p fees.
look for a krussel pouch, its thick real leather... very nice, i have one, its around £10, off ebay. hope this helps

Just searched for "krussel pouch" on eBay and it came up with zero results. I've been thinking about maybe getting a pouch case just to change things up a bit.

No, the one where the phone fits in vertically (portrait). Saw a couple on Amazon, but not sure if that's the route I want to go. Still thinking about it though.
I picked this up and it works perfect, nice tight fit

Really getting desperate getting a Mercury case for my nexus S. Since our phone is getting a bit older, accessories like the mercury case kind tends to be harder to find(last store pointed to me closed shop already). Unless you know someone from Korea, which I don't. Sadly I don't have enough cold cash lying around so getting it from abroad is out of the question. Any of my fellow men from the Philippines here have any idea where I could still get one..? Love to get one in white desperately, or black perhaps. Help please! =(
Go to www.tipidcp.com
I got my white one from ebay though, waited 2months for it to arrive from korea. I also got a yellow one bought locally but i sold it already.

Hehehe. It's you again ej8989! 'Went to where you pointed me. The shop folded up apparently. Now I'm back at zero. Glad you got yours. Sell it to me if you decided to upgraded will ya?
Better buy one on ebay.
I won't upgrade unless developers here stop making roms for good.
And imo this is the most excellent sounding android phone, credits to voodoo sound and my trusty in-ear headphones.
Tell someone you know who has a credit card to buy one for ya. They're only about 360php, free shipping from korea.
haha.. i've been looking for mercury case too but this case is so rare that i only saw one at tcp then after a week its gone and never saw one again. the only thing i can find in the mall are the cheap plastic netcase that could scratch the phone. there's one in ebay that costs 260+50 for shipping, they also do meetup in pasay area, im far from there so i didnt buy one. just search nexus s case in ebay.ph u'll find it in several colors.

Yeah, you're correct about the excellence of our phone. Running slimbean jb rc-1 on mine.Two months waiting time you say? Hehe. I wish I don't run into a pre-owned S2 with a good price by that time. I'll try ebay.ph next time. Thanks for replying.
Nexus S Mercury case seller here in Manila, Philippines
Got me a blue non-Mercury brand case recently. The problem is my neoprene casing has a staining effect on my newly purchased TPU case. Well the black textile edge was the culprit really. I can't seem to remove it with alcohol or liquid detergent. Really getting frustrated.. Any ideas how to remove it guys?
