Hey everyone,
I've been shocked to see only Google's Nexus One came with a cute android pouch while the other phones, well... didn't come with one.
My friend has a G2 and I want to get her a pouch as a small gift. I found one on eBay but not sure if the material is similar to the N1's pouch. Can anyone confirm?
LINK: (darn, I can't post links yet) (but its only ebay)
and do you think I can add stitchings to the pouch? Is there, perhaps, a site that offers android pouches as well as stitchings?
Thank you in advance
The mytouch has pouches too

I use this case from Proporta:

I actually originally bought it for my Nokia N95, and it's such a universal size that it even fits my G2! It's made of leather and has a nice felt (or something like it) lining inside to keep the phone from scratches and stuff. I've dropped this phone and my N95 while in the case quite a few times and it's saved the phone from getting scratched or dinged. I really love the thing a lot, and it comes in nice colors too. Here's a picture of my G2 in it:

Ohh thanks for the picture!
I use the pouch that came with my old G1.
Second. Using my G1 pouch; the G2 fits perfectly (thinner, but the wider profile picks up the slack), and it's a little badge for those who've been with Android since the beginning.
I have one from my camera I'm using. I used to hide other stuff in it before but its good for the phone.

Using my G1 case too, perfect fit.
There are 2 pouches on this website: http://shop.htcpedia.com/t-mobile-g2/accessories/cases/pocket-pouches.html I like the HTC one.
I've ordered from them and they ship really fast, my package was shipped on a Tuesday from NY and got delivered here in IL on Thursday.
G1 pouch for the win.

Check Ebay. That's where I got mine. They go for between $4-$7.

Sweet, you're right. Gonna wait for my knock off nexus one pouches from Hong Kong first. If they sucks, I'll grab one of these.
I use the pouch that came with my n1. the phone got stolen, but the case lives on.
I would highly recommend the official HTC Desire Z slip pouch. It's amazing, minimal, and protects the phone really well. I had an issue with the color of the rubber portion of the phone changing color from using a black case, but this HTC pouch has a light gray cloth interior (and black leather exterior) which has not compromised the phone is any way. It's perfect. $12.99 (no shipping) from Expansys-usa.com... you can probably find it other places as well.

Any Idea's of where to find them? i had one with my G1 and loved it.
same i want one but body glove dont make it yet.. hopefully they do soon
Best cases out there are the naked cases by case mate don't know if they plan to make one for nexus or not sure hope so. Hate not having any protection at all!
I had a body glove case for my MyTouch and it broke within about 4 days. Was really disappointed I paid $20 for that thing =\
Any hardcore protection case would be nice at this point. This slide in case that came with the phone just ain't cutting it.
^agree, I need a metal case to protect this work of Art!

If your MyTouch went unscathed from whatever broke teh body glove case then you should not be dissapointed as you did not break the phone. While it should not be a one-time thing, the case may have protected the phone as intended.

The part that latches on to the belt ripped, wasn't from a drop or anything like that.
Great looking Case! - but it's only a tease for now
I came across this site that makes some really *SLICK* cases for the ....other phone....
too bad, but maybe when N1 hits a few million sold, they will do a similar design for the N1.

Yeah those are very nice. However, they appear to be hardcore Apple. But maybe if they got enough Email requesting they would consider?
That case is soooo perfect I want one so bad.. I sent them a message via contact us telling them they should make one for the nexus one and I also sent them a link to this thread everyone that would like one should definitely send them a message

I ain't going to lie. i've went through two body glove cases on my G1 and both broke the same way. The little plastic clips the held the case to my phone snapped off after time. As far as protection goes the case did a good job quite well and body glove has proven to me that they are good phone protectors. They just need to get better in other little areas.
Thinking of getting this case for my G2. Has anyone tried it out. If so, how is it (snug fit, any problems opening and closing phone)? thanks.
So I decided to get the Mobi Case. I had the original T-mobile gel case, I gotta say I like this one much better. I had problems with my G2 opening really easily with the gel case and problem solved.
here's a few pics

I thought about getting this case but I wasn't sure. Does it fit snug? For some reason I was worried about it scratching any of the soft parts. I really love the way the g2 looks naked (haha). How much was it and where did you get it from?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 with Virtuous Sense.
I have to agree with you I also like to see my G2 bare some skin, hell that's one of the main reasons I bought this phone. The case is quite snug on the phone. I didn't have a problem with it scratching either. But after a day of use, I have noticed some scuffs on the body part of the case (from setting it down). I got it with tax, shipping and 10% off for $17.60 @ the Android Central Store.

Cheapest i've found.
Its a decent case...more protective then it looks, I've had it for a few months now
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I appreicate the feed back. I almost went with htc's version of the clear case but it doesn't cover the trackpad area like this one. I think ill go for it. I have the hard rubberized T-Mobile version which I think is awesome for the protection, and the price. (17.99 I think). Also, with any clear case there are going to have those scuffs regardless. Im still waiting on otterbox to make a case. I figured they would considering they made one for the mytouch slide Thanks though!
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 with Virtuous Sense.
I love the looks of it but... don't you lose the grippyness (if thats even a word, lol) with that case opposed to the popular OEM gel skin?
I dont feel like you lose grip at all. Waiting for my new one to come in.
Sent From My HTC Vision and XDA App
There is still some grippiness but not as much as with a rubberized case. Its still a decent amount though.
Sent from my Dethphone!!! (G2)
UPDATE: Well after about 8 months of only using this case, one of the clips that hold the case on (on the battery end) has broken off. I guess that's expected after taking it on and off who knows how many times. I gotta say, I definitely got my $17 out of this case and will probably buy another one just like it to replace this one.
Are there any good leather flip cases, the only one I could find was a cheap ****ty 5 dollar one on ebay, lasted about 10 minutes!
Also off topic but does anyone know what the name of that anti scratch screen (and back) protecter it starts with Z but I cant remember hahah!

I did the exact same thing. I bought a carbon effect one from ebay (for next to nothing) to see how it looked, felt, protected the phone etc. and when it arrived, i was pretty happy. It looked decent enough and seemed to be of reasonable quality for the price so i put my phone in (which seemed to require an abnormal amount of effort) and then it appeared that the case was a little too tight. I then spent the next 20 minutes attempting to get my DHD out of it and when i finally did the imitation leather/material was starting to tear so i threw it away.
I also decided to buy myself a nice cheap Desire S style silicone/gel case from ebay (once again, for next to nothing) and i couldn't be happier! It offers more than ample protection and it looks great. So i'd advise that if you're on a budget that you stick to a gel case, unless you want to spend much more money on a higher quality leather flip case.
I think I've bought the same carbon case. It's a pain in the butt to get off lol
I purchased my case from Ebay uk the Seller username is phone_giants and the item is listed as"HTC DESIRE HD MOBILE PHONE LEATHER CASE COVER POUCH" hope this is useful.
PDair case
I've used PDair on both my Streak and Inspire, good quality and selection.
Me too,ideal for attaching to your belt as well as it comes with a belt clip,also have the htc one which I use to put into my shirt pocket,comes with a pull cord to pull it out of the case and protects the phone in your pocket/bag etc
I was quite rightly introduced (by the largest Vegan site on the planet) to the plight of animals when it comes to the meat and leather industry. So you might want to consider a TPU case or something else, especially after seeing these videos (i made a quick page).
I use a TPU case and it's been great alongside a separate sleeve. Thankfully there are many other options out there too.

Hi there!
I purchased this:
http://www.pielframa.com/htc-desire-hd-imagnum-cases.htm
The good:
Excellent general fit, durability and overall protection.
In a pinch the lid can double as a kickstand although within a rather narrow angle span.

Noreve looks cheaper but I have no experience with their products.

All in all it´s the best case i ever had.
Oh - BTW. The belt clip looks decent enough but i never use it. I just stick the whole thing in a pocket somewhere. Pants usually.

I had this same exact case for my G2x, It wasn't as nice and didnt fit as well as it looked on the web. I really miss the fusion case I had for my MT4G that one was my favorite case. It was very similar yet much better. I wouldnt buy this case again for my sensation after seeing the exact one on my g2x This was the best one for the MT4G: http://www.ambitronic.com/product_info.php/mytouch-fusion-case-p-480
This was the same one as the sensation that I thought was pretty bad on the G2X (and I had two of these cases from different venders)

I've had my TPU case for a few days now, and I've found that it obstruct a micro-USB cable so it does not solidily stay plugged in. Do you have this issue as well or did I just get a bad vendor? (I have this one - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0054HA45A )

Case & Screen Protectors
I just got the this case for $5.95:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004XYHW1Y
They also sent two screen protectors for free. The case is very thin and it lets you see the phone's back, which is great. This might not be the case for someone looking to FULLY protect the phone, as it doesn't cover the top and bottom of it.
Now it is only $1.99 plus S&H, it doesn't gets better than that. Although not related to cases, you should buy this car charger:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000S5Q9CA
I got it for my N1 and it works great with the S4G.
try this one，nice awesome

bought that kind, dont have it yet. did have on on my mt4g, worked beautifully. Fav case ever. usb port was a little tight on generic usb cords, but the htc cables have small heads that fit fine.
In my searches for a good TPU case, I came across this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180699200569&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_738wt_1037. It's cheaper than the TPU-Cases brand and it also comes with a screen protector. I think it looks great with a matte/gloss dual finish, but I'm not sure if I should buy it with the lack of a power button cutout.

I REALLY like the way that one looks, and with free expedited shipping, its worth trying. It't be sweet if it were orange though.
I just ordered 1 of this hard rubber and 3 of this tpu cases.
I believe they have a very good price and high quality.
I bought this case last week and it is the best tpu case I have ever seen or used! Looks so sexy on the sensation. It has all the extra holes on the back as well and it fits like a glove. The seller is also selling one for $2 more with a screen protector. Can't say how the sp is as I haven't tried it, but I highly suggest this case.

Thinking about moving from a case to a skin. Was curious if anyone else has skinned their M9, and which brand you used. Don't want to fly blind if someone has had a good or bad experience with theirs.
I have used 2 d brand skins and they look nice it's just hard to get them perfect on the curved corners on the phone.

Slickwraps are the way to go. Had them on my last 3 phones.
I've used dbrand and slick wraps on my last few phones. Can't go wrong with either. Dbrand carbon fiber is a little slippery though.

I don't know a bout the quality but you can find crazy skins for the m9 on ebay , more choice than on dbrand or slickwrap and cheaper prices
Slickwraps is really good. I've been buying wraps from them for many of my devices and they are excellent. I stopped buying from them though, because when I got a wrap for the M9, it lasted only about a week because it started too detach from the sides. I contacted the company and they said they couldn't do anything to help me. I was surprised because they are always very attentive with their customers. Regardless of this situation, I can say that their wraps are just great and would recommend them to anyone. I'll probably get a glow in the dark one once I'm over this little inconvenience.

Vinyl skins can be manufactured very cheaply, but in my experience, you get what you pay for with this kind of stuff when it comes to fit, durability, and appearance.
And it's not like name-brand skins are that pricey. I just got the mahogany front skins from dbrand, and the fit and look are perfect. $5 with shipping.
