I ordered a carry pouch from mobilefun.co.uk which is very good but doesn't have holes for the headphones and micro usb port. I use my phone as a Zune so it's not practical.

I searched everywhere but couldn't find a better case so I thought about looking in France (I'm actually French, hence the idea) and found it on Amazon and ebay. I ordered one from ebay and contacted other buyers who all confirmed it was the official Samsung case. The seller delivers abroad too :

I bought it on eBay. Here some pictures :

Nice... Tell me, how does it feel to make an actual call with it? Is the dangling cover disturbing or do you not notice it much?

Had mine a few days now (thanks for the ebay link ) and don't really notice it too much. If I make a call, I usually fold the flap behind the handset anyway - the extra bulk actually makes if feel more comfortable/secure to hold.
is the phone securely attached to the case??
if i drop it, would it stay in? from the pictures it looks like it only lightly clips in!

It sits in a recessed case with support at the top and bottom and feels securely attached. It does stay in if dropped (from first-hand experience ).
Just ordered one, thanks for the info!
I accidentally purchased one of these from the French eBay.. My French isn't great and hit the commit to buy by accident lol. So it should be arriving soon so I'll add my 2 pennies worth then!
Right, the case arrived and I must say it is very good.
Phone is held in securely and feels well protected. It is also still very slim in the pocket which is a massive bonus.
I'd definitely reccomend it!
Two other official cases if you prefer slip cases or want to wear the phone to your belt:

I went ahead and purchased this though. I'll let you all know how it fits when I receive it. The listing states that it's for the Omnia 7, but if you at the image closely, clearly there's a Galaxy S phone in the case. I emailed the seller just in case to see if it would work with the Omnia 7 and he said it would.

Unfortunately the seller of that item does not ship to the USA!
I was so excited about the pouch that I failed to read the entire listing.
The seller is going to sell me the case after all. Apparently it was sent, so I should be expecting it next week. Will provide pictures and brief review when I receive case!
Apologies for the third post in a row, but the seller sent me an email with a tracking number for the pouch, but because it's in French I have no idea where to go input the tracking number on the website! I tried my best at translating... but no luck.

Thank you for that oweng.
Fortunately, my pouch arrived today. And I must say that I love it! The pouch itself feels very stiff and a bit hard, and my Omnia 7 fits perfectly snug in the pouch. It literally fits with the Omnia 7 perfectly. The phone does not move around when in the pouch. Also, I tried using the pouch with i9000 Galaxy and it fits well with that phone as well. Here are some pictures:

You have my thanks for sharing these pictures with us mate
The pouch looks solid. I just do not like the loose thing at the bottom right (second photo). Is it easily removable?

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.
http://www.beyzacases.com/cat-htc-t...es---ultra-slim-type-vertical-pouch-cases.cfm
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.
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!

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!

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.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

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....

Guys do any of you know how to select/buy the leather case showed in this page?( at the bottom of the page-->accessories)
http://www.omnia7.samsungmobile.com/
No, but I had the same question, just look a few threads under yours.
There should be handsets that have roughly the same measurements. Cases for these could be a workaround until something perfect is released. Problem is, I don't know how to efficiently find out which ones would fit. If somebody with a bit of spare time could find out, that would be great.

That case is an optional boxed accessory that networks/resellers can choose to offer their customers - and not something being sold (yet, at least) separately to customers. At least that's what Samsung UK told me when I asked.
i've seen some over at mobilefun.codotuk, including silicone covers and what i think is some sort of hard gel...anti shock cases... and the leather one you speak of.

They can even engrave XDA-DEV on the cases for a joke when i asked for no extra cost .... 5 colours

Hi any updates? I should be recieving my omnia 7 soon and want to get a decent case/screen protector as well.
Cheers
oh well, I ended up ordering that silicon case. I am also going to get some screen protectors/films just in case.
Sorry...sorry sorry... totally forgot lol, Will upload now. Going to go take some pics downstairs in good light.
Long post of Pics for anyone wondering what the Omnia 7 black silicone case looks like on the phone as not many suppliers seem to have pics on the ads yet. *when i bought it anyway* - Yes mine has a screen protector I think it looks fine with the case as you cannot see the edges on the glass much apart from two pics which show the holes around the windows button and the ear piece / sensors.
*4th pic down if you zoom in shows what the screen protector does as already my phones been across a few of the slate tiles in the kitchen*
I think I found the perfect 3rd-party case for the phone The 'Valente Leather Pocket 15'. It's still a little tight (not too tight) but I reckon it will loosen up in a few days as it is genuine leather... so the fit will be great!
Bought it for €15,- @ a retailer called the Phonehouse in the Netherlands.
also available online at: pdashop.nl/product/108532/
images below (note: although the phone doesn't stick out as much as in pic 1 when you push it as far as possible into the case, the corners do stick out just 1mm. so that's only a real concern when you drop it head-down)
Nice,
Found a few for
£3.99 + free p&p

&
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Leather-Track..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item2a0c26fc8a
£1.99 + free p&p. Looks very similar
Just ordered it the first one, so hoping it fits the phone with the silicone, If not, Extra one for when i get the missus one of these phones.... *sigh*
I have already used up 4 of the 6 screen protectors provided and still can't get it to set without any bubbles. Any tips would be welcome.
I have to say I ordered this as a stop gap until some of the custom made brands came on line. But, hey, for £6.65 delivered including stylus, screen protector and belt clip, this will do just fine . It is especially useful for propping up the phone at various angles to watch videos and the credit card slots mean I can leave my wallet at home most of the time .
please be very carful, i ordered a pouch from ebay for £3 and the first time i put it in, i thought it was stiff becuase of the leather, but when i took it out, the piece of fabric inside scratched my screen so badly :[ :[ i was SO angry, but thank god it was just the screen protector! i threw away the pouch right then and got a refund from ebay!

This is not a pouch! No way could it scratch the screen . I cannot be negative just because it was cheap. Real leather too - unless they are injecting smells now too lol!
ummm, yeah, fake leather has smell too
anyway, just be careful
Actually it is pretty much the fake leather that smells, the real one does not so much. [/offtopic]

Be careful of what ffs? Jeesh you guys are hard to please. My tongue was firmly in my cheek - I have no doubt whatever this is not real leather - no little tag to say it is genuine you see . But it does fit like a glove and has a very soft lining.
For £6.65 - and everything you get with it - it has to be a bargain that I thought I would pass on to you guys. Sorry if I have upset the cynics. If it falls apart in a year or two (which wouln't surprise me) then I'll just send off for another one .

I just ordered the book version of this. My wife has the flip one. Quality for the money and no way of scratching or damaging the phone. Not sure what all the warnings are about. Very strange!

Any chance of the sellers name or an item number and how long did it take to get here ????

The exact item I got doesn't seem to be listed any more but this is from the same seller and a near identical picture (mine had white stitching) but this one is over £2 cheaper!
It took 10 days or so which is not bad given the weather problems,
Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered one of their *genuine* leather ones. Not expecting it to be genuine at all but as long as it's functional and protects the phone.
How the heck do they make them so cheap when flying them half way around the world???

You won't regret that. Just make sure you get the plus model.

We will see what will come
I bought this from eBay.
spigen case.
Wrong thread.
Bought official slim flip brown case, it is really worthy for such nice looking bhone, it is clearly much better quality than common chinese flip cases.
As is stated in other thread here, it does not have a magnet, a had to insert small magnet from notebook HDD into card pocket for screen sensor to work.
Bought something like this: https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1fgy0...d-PC-Soft-Silicone-Back-Phone.jpg_640x640.jpg
Looks nice, looks even a bit more premium (I mean.. I payed for it like 3$ ) than it's worth. Doesn't feel like it. But the doesn't offer as much of protection as it's advertised. I guess none of them protect the phone any more.. The leg is quite useful (Cheaply made, could break off pretty easily, yet it's still intact on my phone). All the holes for jack ports sucks. 3.5mm impossible to fit (well.. I use other headphones, maybe original ones fit). Maybe I will make the hole bigger somehow.. USB jack also gives problems. You have to adjust the bottom part of the case everytime. Can live with it, but could be better.
