VIDEO: Form-fitting black Silicon Case for HTC Desire - $10 - Amzer

Overall this is really great. I ordered it the day after I got my Desire, but it took 2 weeks just for it to get into production, and then another week to ship. It comes in a bunch of colors; I chose black. The fit is perfect, and all the buttons and holes line up just right. My only complaint is that I wish it were just a bit more stretchy-snug -- It's snug, but I'd like for it to have been more snug
.
ALSO:
It did not come with a carry strap, nor anchor point for one, but I made one myself and now it is secure in my hands everywhere I go. Mission accomplished. I will add pictures of that later tonight.

What are the white things stuck on the back of the phone?

Oh sorry, I forgot to mention that.... They have nothing to do with the silicone case... They are separate stick ons called "egrips" -- which you can apply to any device and it creates a friction that prevents stuff from sliding out of your hand.

Prior to getting the silicone case in the mail, I needed to give myself some peace of mind to not let the Desire slip out of my hand. egrips are great... They makes them as strips you can apply where you like -- and they also make they as custom fits for an entire back of a phone...
I care a lot about aestehtics -- but I do not care about the back of my phone. I rank "NOT DROPPING MY PHONE" much much higher than "neat and tidy back side".
But, for the record, the egrips work great on the Desire back surface itself... But when I then applied them to the back of the silicon case, they don't adhere.
So, what do you think of the case?

Great video, thanks for the great review!
I wish everyone would review the products they bought the same way, with clean and alot of photos, detailed ones

Case Vs Cradle

I want a case , or a rubber encasing perhaps (just waiting to see all the accessories once this goes global) BUT I love the idea of a cradle..
If I were to give you one.. which would you choose? I want both but it isn't really feasible hey..

The case no need for a dock yeett ....

I wonder is the front and back for the galaxy S easily exchange able ?

I got a silicone case on ebay for <$3us. I know it might stretch if I'm not careful, but it would let you keep your phone safe without precluding a cradle.
Check out these. I bet you could think of something better.

The back is just a piece of plastic, you just pop it off with your finger, nothing fancy at all. I fully expect a wide variety of cheap replacement backs for this phone in a very short period of time. That is why I am not worrying about scratching the back much, just the screen.

If anyone gets this, please report back, I'm only interested due to the backing/kickstand. I dislike the front, screen cover. The link provides some pictures, even more can be found here: http://www.bb.co.kr/main/model/model.php?model_id=2373993&qword=SHW-M110s

There are two different models in the pic I posted - the kick-stand version doesn't come with the fold over screen cover

[Q] LCD Glass unsticking

I have had the nexus 5 for about 6 months now, and i'm starting to notice a part of the glass coming off. The area around the volume buttons to the center of the screen makes a sticking sound when pushed down on, and i can feel it pushing in a little bit. It's most noticeable on the edge directly next to the volume buttons. There are no visible cracks as far as i can tell. Phone works fine besides this. Should I be worried and replace the screen or just let it be? I don't notice it if i don't push down too hard.
Never had this happen to me on a phone before. Thanks!

That definitely shouldn't be happening.

It's not very visible and pictures don't show the problem.
It feels like the glue in that area is just dried up in that area and isn't holding down the screen correctly. but its only a small area so right now its not too big of a deal.

Ask for google support, they will replace it. Mine was losing the back cover letters and google replaced it

Hi all. Wasn't sure if I should reply to this old thread or start my own...
I have a Nexus 5 that's over 2 years old. So no warranty. It looks like my screen is starting to come off in the bottom right corner. I think it's just the glass. Take a look at the attached pic/video and let me know what you think I could/should do. You can see I can move it by pressing on it.

It works fine otherwise. Touch/display etc seems all fine. I don't care about this problem if it stays as-is, but I'm worried it will get worse and come off further.
I'm thinking a bit of super glue would do? .

Thinking the same…

Nillkin Flip Case with "Smart Window"

What do you think about this? Looks interesting

Not so "Smart". It's just a cutout so that you can see the clock in the lockscreen and maybe the phone number when someone calls you, but only that. I have one, and the only thing I don't like are the cutouts for the buttons, they are not well placed. I prefer having a silicon flip cover instead of this one

So I found an alternative with cutout

Well, that looks quite better, but still hard plastic case, the buttons in the right side are hard to press, just like in the Nillkin XD
If there would be something like this, but with a cover over it... LOL

maybe there as app for that that could concentrate important concent into the small window. but anyways, windowed cases are utterly pointless on non-AMOLED screens

Absolutely correct. In the M2, all the LCD goes ON, not like in AMOLED, where 0 equals fully off pixel. However, just to check what time is it, or who is calling you is nice, and the screen is protected..

I came here too late it is no longer listed. This can not be the only thread on M2 Accessories though surely?

iOttie Easy One Touch 3 - Got one. Works great with the 6P.

So, I know many of you out there have been looking for a mount for your car, and many of us know how good the iOttie series of Easy One Touch mounts are. The Easy One Touch 2 does work with the 6P, sometimes, but often will press on the buttons on the side or not hold the phone well because of the side arms.
I just bought and received the new iOttie Easy One Touch 3 and can say it works perfectly with the 6p, in or out of a case. I'll get some pictures up tonight, but here's a link and what's new.
http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Holder-iPhone-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B0197549HS/
Pros
+Arms are built better and hold phone perfectly
+Spring seems stronger
+2 Base feet now
+Base feet are adjustable up and down so you can change the height so the buttons aren't pressed by the arms
+Easier to use control knobs
+Much bigger activation button
+Looks way nicer
Cons
-This may just be for me, but the arm is now an inch or bit more shorter. This may not affect others, but for me I need that extra inch (ba dum dum) so it is closer to my finger when fully extended (bazinga)
I'll get some pics up tonight, if you have questions, shoot them my way.
Oh, I'll probably swap the base back to the Easy One Touch 2 so it is long enough (phrasing!) as they use the same size pivot balls (tada!).
I'll get some

Here's a few pics installed.

I'll go take a few with my g3 of the 6P in place.

How is it with the volume buttons where the mount looks to hit?

I have some more pictures on my g3 that all post here in a few but like I was saying the feet are completely adjustable up down left and right. I've been able to adjust it so it completely clears the buttons with some slack in there for even thinner cases.

Now I just need a car....
