Hey everyone i need help with something. Im looking to buy a stock battery cover for my phone. Now i know HTC has accessories on their website where you can buy cases, car chargers etc... i wanna make sure im buying the right case. would it be the (Google Nexus One Metallic Hard Shell Case - Black) case that im looking for? or that's the one im not looking for? my current case has scratches and dents all over it and im just looking to replace it. could someone kindly help me out?
If you're looking to replace just the battery covery I don't think HTC sells them on the website. The metallic case you're looking at is a full body case for extra protection. I'd check out cnn.cn or ebay. I've read some success stories with those.

I wonder if there wil be replacement backs (for the supposedly poor plastic).
Hanging out for a good rubber case or something for it though.

Here's hoping, I think there's an opportunity here for someone.
I need water proof case ....for i9000
Don't get the pull up case. I got one myself a few days ago and it does not fit well. The insides feel rough and it felt like it could scratch the phone at any time.

The top bit wouldn't fit in.
What I'm waiting for is the OtterBox
I've had an OtterBox Defender for my iPhone for over a year, and after the number of times I've dropped my phone only to have it saved, it's the only case I'll use.
Unfortunately, Otter hasn't created one yet. I sent in a request, and they're looking at building one, but don't have one yet.
silicon and leather case.. etc..
..found this link from a forum.. korean website..
..you can try searching the gmarket website.. korean version.
..they have like Zenus Softcase for the GS and alot more.
The Zenus cases look really nice, but it's a bit expensive, and Gmarket always costs a lot to ship internationally.

The orange and black case looks amazing!!
Maybe not realy case related, but also protection..
I've mailed gelaskins and uniqueskins to inquire if they will be producing a skin for the Galaxy S soon.. Gelaskin is putting it up for consideration, uniqueskins however does not respond to any mail i send them, very rude! (despite the've read them, according to the read reports).
I would like to use a skin to protect the plastic cover. However the cover was not as flumsy as most reviews lead me to believe..
case looks awesome how do I order one?? I've been trying to battle through the zenus website (using chrome korean translation as the english version doesn't work) but not getting anywhere...
I absolutely detest cases of any kind as they add extra bulk to an already fairly large device. What I prefer are skins like the ones from gelaskins.com.
some people like case some dont, as for me i want to put some weight on the S its too light, also i dont wanna scratch the back of the phone,
i want that ZEnus case, but like the above guy no idea how to buy from the site, nothing on ebay too...
I am able to purchase from Gmarket as I have used Gmarket before.
Would anyone be interested in me bulk buying some and me sending them to you? The reason is that Gmarket uses a very expensive delivery services, and anything up to 0.5kg is roughly 12 dollars. These cases weigh 0.1kg each so I am able to buy up to 5 of them and still pay 12 dollars delivery.
Edit: Nevermind, I just checked the actual item weights. It's the silicone case that weighs 0.1kg each.
Silicone case: £9.76 (weighs 0.1kg)
http://english.gmarket.co.kr/challenge/neo_goods/goods.asp?goodscode=189041207
Leather case: £19.50 for white or black case, £20.64 for the double coloured cases. (weighs 0.5kg)
http://english.gmarket.co.kr/challe...1&pos_class_kind=T&keyword_order=zenus+galaxy
Though the delivery is still cheaper if I bulk buy, if anyone would be still interested then tell me.
seidio
Anyone contacted seidio if they will be making like custom casing, battery, etc for the internation version of GS?
..just curious.. hehehe

is that a kickstand i see on the white case? Looks very nice if it is.....
Not sure, it may just be part of the design, but it would certainly be very nice if it was a kickstand.
you can see it better upclose here....looks rubberish to me and unlikely to be a kick stand 2nd image from the bottom...

failing that i may try to find some plastic material to attach to the back of a case but unsure what to search for? swivel plastic piece? lol.
I have been shopping around, and it seems like the T-Mobile stores carry some good cases, but for the price (at leat 24.99) it seems to be like the same quality of the amazon cases that go for a few bucks. Will the Amazon snap on cases scratch my g2?
Also anyone had experience with the zagg/skinomi complete protection? I love the aluminum feel of the g2, but it seems like it's not worth the risk to have it naked
Thanks!
I purchased the clear kickstand case off of amazon and it my favorite because its clear so i get to see the aluminum but its till protected, my case was like 8.99 instead $25 and came i n T-Mobile packaging

You can try looking at the other thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8961952
$5 for a hard plastic case that does not add bulk at all.
I have a video review in there as well comparing the Gel Casing vs. the cheap one. It's in Page 3 somewhere.
i posted some pictures of the T-Mobile Kick Stand case here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801842
I also bought the cheap case mentioned in the reply above me, and i like the feel of the cheaper one much more. It's alot slimmer and I like the rubbery feel more than the hard plastic shell. I do like clear though, so I hope they have a rubbery, clear one released -- i had something like that for the Nexus phone and loved it.
NEW HTC Rubberize and Clear case

As some may have read, I have ordered Mugens 3600 mah extended battery. Which case do you think would be suitable for it, have you seen one somewhere? Preferably flip case...
Excellent question.
I have a PDAir case for my phone right now,but I wondered the same thing if I went with the largest battery.
Maybe something from this company?
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Covertec-Bla...366786?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item19aa00e142
Do you already have the largest battery and fitting case? The shop you suggested does not have a case big enough sadly.

Hmm.
I don't have the large battery and back case yet,but I was thinking about it.
I was thinking about it,but the only solution I can see is the Covertec from my PPC 6600.
It seems to fit the new phone with with some shimming behind it.
I used to use it with the PPC and the extra capacity battery.
That was pretty thick.
The only downside was the plastic strap across the lower front of the screen.
Urgently in need of this kind of case now! Help! I got the covertec ordered, I will report if it suits the new battery.
Maybe the seido could do the job.
Not the case - just the flip for the belt. You put the screen to your body, so the larger back would not be a problem, but you need to check whether the sensation without the case would still "snap" into the belt holster, but maybe you can make it fit with a TPU case which is just around the corners of the sensation and not covering the back - chekc the thread something like that was mentioned.
Best regads,

So i have a sensation on the way, so just trying to get everything ordered before the phone gets here.
I need a case. I have been looking through this accessories section, i cant seem to narrow it down to one...too many choices.
Please help me, this is some of the stuff i am looking for:
I dont want to spend more then $20
I dont want to add much bulk
dont want silicone as it collects tons of lint/dust
do want to be able to easily press the buttons.
Please help
Edit: been searching and reading every post on cases in this forum, so frustrated and confused, thinking of just ordering a cheap TPU case off ebay....
---any suggestions on a case that will meet the few criteria i mentioned?

For 10bux USD, this case is nicely built but IMO detracts the shape of the Sensation. But a good case.

Here's my mini review:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15621307&postcount=113
But if you prefer under 20 dollar cases, you are looking for tpu type cases which you have ordered. And actually which I currently use now. Prior I was using the Seidio Active case w/ kickstand combo with holster. Great case combo for the price on ebay or amazon, which cheaper than Seidio of course.
GL in your hunt!
Check out body glove... It's barely there and I love it can link one later pm me if trouble

I suppose I should have done some more research before buying this phone, but I can't find the protective case in stock anywhere. Makes since with this being an old phone. Nevertheless does anyone know where I can find this case, or does anyone have a blueprint for a 3d printed case
I just ordered this case
Should be arriving in a week or so. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.
So Did you ever get the case and how did it work out

Sorry for super duper late response lol. It was pretty fragile. Not a very flattering look with the case. I'm not an expert with 3d printing so perhaps there's a way to streamline the design a bit more. I ended up just applying a skinomi full body skin on mine, combined with a fabric pouch.

A listing is up in eBay https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F123848778261
Looks like the seller is from Russia though. Plus I'm sure as hell not buying a case for that much. It's basically half of the price of the phone itself.
