[Q] Case for G2 with 3500mAh extended battery - G2 and Desire Z Accessories

I’ve recently purchased a 3500mAh extended battery, and now I’m having trouble getting my G2 into any cases designed for a standard G2. Has anyone had any luck finding a pouch that will fit it? I was wondering if there is another phone pouch (perhaps designed for a 4”+ screen as there might be enough slack space to make up for the thick battery) that will work?

You can try the pouchs for g1 since g1 is a pretty thick phone.
If your looking for a case...then you probably won't find any
If you really need a case buy like a gel case from ebay and cut the back out so it will fit into your phone

I might try a G1 case, but I noticed that the G1, along with being thicker than the G2 also appears to be somewhat less wide, owing to the smaller screen. I'm thinking that one may cancel out the other...

like what they suggested. I use the g1 oem pouch and it fits great.

How is the battery life? You can also try to get a regular g2 case and the just cut it, where the battery is.

This is what I ended up doing lol. I bought a silicone case from eBay for 1.50$ and then I traced the battery door. Used a knife to cut and I ended up with a case for the extended battery!

Post some pictures I would love to see the end product, and how is the battery life? Worth getting?

Its kinda blurry but you can kinda see it. You can see the the rubber rubbing off the case it came with due to the everyday usage. But I made a case that it'll fit lol.

[Q] Mobi Products Crystal Case

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?

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

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!

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.

I definitely like the wood pattern on this one. How much bulk does it add to the phone?
Im using a black silicon case for him (my chacha's black). Wit this case u can hold ur phone easily
But just remember the heat of this phone when it runs. Decrease ur CPU before u put it in silicon prision haha
For backup battery, u can use SCUD battery wit same 1250mAh. It's good.
U also need a headphone (earphone) to listen music with ur Chacha DSP Manager ^^ I often plug my CX200 II Street white edition instead of original headphone

OEM HTC Hard Shell Cases for under $10

I was looking for the HTC metallic cases online, and found them on many sites for $19.95, which I didn't want to pay after seeing some posts on here saying the clips wore down. I found them on htcpedia.com for $8.99 for metallic, and $9.99 for the clear and black ones.
Links:
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-metallic-hard-shell-cases.html
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-hard-shell-cases-1.html
I've never purchased from them but you can use Paypal and there are customer reviews on the products so I gave it a shot. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else was interested!
What do you mean by metallic? are they metal or metal apearance with a plastic build..
That's just what HTC calls them, I don't know. Look at the pics?
Does metallic mean they're like my case? Mine looks plastic but the inside of it is metal, something about the signal, I don't know for sure.
Hmmm, if someone does decide to order, would like to hear a review on the quality.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Search this forum. There previous posts about it. Also a user from here made a YouTube video about the black one. Just search for it on there.
Also ime metallic refers to color and not material.
Here, I got the links for you.

I have the clear case. Bought it at my local T-Mobile store for $9.99. It has a very snug fit but looks amazing as it lets the sexinesss of the G2 show. The case has the stand which allows the phone to sit up on its own in landscape or portrait. Be careful pulling case off the back of the phone. Very tight and if not careful will scratch phone.

I think you're mistaken - these HTC cases don't have kickstands. I think Body Glove or someone made that one.
Anyway, just a quick review - my case got here in 2 days with Fed Ex (NY to IL), I'd definitely buy from that website again. The case made the phone seem bulky at first but after the first day I was used to it, and it doesn't seem odd at all anymore. I like the finish a lot. I would recommend these cases, especially since they're made by HTC and that gives them the best fit possible.

They are great, but they really get in the way when typing on the top row of keys.

I have one too. So far so good, though I didn't use the screen protector that came with it.
Is there a docking cradle that works with this case? I bought the one recommended by Samsung (EDD-D200BEGSTD) but it doesn't fit at all. There's a ridge in front of the USB connector that pushes up against the keyboard. I don't think it would fit even with the case off...
you mind posting links to cases that fit well?
i didn't get a case for the new cell so far since i always had trouble with them falling off when sliding the keyboard in and out after a while or didn't really fitting at all.
but if there's one that you ppl could recommend... my new electronic toy could use a lil extra protection
Case/cover.
I'm trying to find that case in UK as from us it will be about £20 !
Does anyone know where to buy it in UK or any online site but cheaper.
If not I will go for it as need to protect my precious (still waiting to be delivered).
Can anybody post some photos of that case as even on google pictures they not show it cover fully unit.
Or maybe someone have any alternative?
Regards
Mac
UPDATE
I just bought SA-321
http://www.incipio.com/cases/smartp...alpro-hard-shell-case-with-silicone-core.html
And even found discount code 20% less !
So I am happy now, no need to buy screen protector even.
Looks pretty good honestly, I may get one of those feather cases.

(If you want to buy one there, you may want to use the coupon code "inc20" - saves you 20%.) (expired)
Just ordered the SA-321 for my wife's Relay. Btw, the coupon code no longer is active.
I have just received an SA-321 case. It's of very good quality and I like the rubbery-but-not-too-much feeling of it. Compared to the SA-316, it covers the power and volume buttons. It makes the power button a lot easier to press and the slide-out mechanism feels somewhat more solid.
I like it a lot.
Agree. Though a bit pricey, my wife fell in love with it instantly. Great feel, good protection, and looks great too.:good:

Moto X Syle- What's A Decent Looking Flip Cover?

A Decent looking flip cover
Hello so with my Moto x style on its way i have been hunting for a good looking flip cover.
But the ones i have found so far look super cheap and ugly adding a fair bit of bulk to the device.
Im looking for something like the flip cover you can get for the one plus one from there store its sleek black adds little to no extra bulk.
Has hardly any over hang and most important the phone is firmly in place and wont fall out.
I have been looking on both ebay and amazon and done a general google search without much luck.

That's the thing tho pretty much all of those look kinda eeh like the image you posted it looks like a sheet of cheap plastic.
The nicest one i can find on amazon is the Tetded Moto X Style Hand Crafted Slim Profile Genuine Cowhide Leather Case.
And its only semi decent i cant post a link yet cause i don't have 10 posts and while its decent its not quite what im looking for

Looking for one like this that is perhaps magnetic, and definitely DOESN'T have card slots.
You know, like the samsung ones. They're just a cover that shows the time through if you hit power.
How about this.. They have several different colors on Tetded.com no idea if its any good but it looks nice.
I ordered one from Tetded allso. should be ariving one of these days.

Actually I don't think it's worth the money, it looks quite cheap and at some points it doesn't really fit nicely especially in the lower right corner, there is some space between the back of the phone and the case. Will see what happens with it when I use it a bit more.
