Chipped off a piece of the MicroUSB Slot... Please help! :O

Hey guys, I really need help because I have no idea what to do right now.
A chunk of the microusb slot chipped off and now my phone looks really bad :O
Is there any case that covers this up (ie those $1-2 silicone cases on eBay)? Or is there anywhere I can buy a cheap replacement housing set to fix it?
Here's a picture...

Well, when I bought the phone off my sister, there used to be a crack around that area, so I just ignored it. Today, I took it out of its leather pouch and found that the part was missing
Anyways, thanks for the help. this'll do the trick right?

Yup, just like mine. They can be a pain when pulling it out of your pocket (sticky/rubbery) but I dont put my phone in my pocket.

Awesome. I purchase a blue silicone one for $2.30 off eBay. I hope it'll cover it up because right now if feels like I have OCD (I was thinking that I should sell my captivate on craigslist just because of this little chipped off piece of plastic lol).
Thanks for you help

Available for the 10.1 only so far and hearing the rumours that 8.9 is being discontinued I am not holding my breath big frown...tears almost.
I have a business idea that is revolving around the use of this tablet outdoors for mapping and utilising the 4G network.
I mean what gives? In Australia they don't even offer any other size in the 4G tablet? Its 8.9 or nothing. Surely they would make more accessories give that....ohhh but no!!!
If anyone can source me one of these tough cases I will donate! Promise! I am deadly serious now

This is about as close as I can buy AFAIK?

That is very nice for the money. Gives pretty good protection but the tab stays slim.

It looks exactly like the one I bought from amazon. Good little case, made of hard rubber, but still keeps the tab thin and light. I also have a leather portfolio cover, which is nice cause i can type easily in landscape, but the linked cover is amazing for reading books, as there is no flap in the way while reading.

i have a vipertek one i got from amazon for 20$. good quality. not a tough case but it gets the job done.

I just got one of these and its... okay.
In trying to keep it slimline, the 'long' edge has minimal overlap on the screen with the result that, in portrait mode, the case folds back where your hands are in contact with it.
Its better than nothing but not exactly what I would call rugged.

Protective Soft TPU Back Cover Case(Only $2,40!)

Hi all,
Around 2 weeks ago I found the following cover on the internet. It was only $2,40 so I decided to buy it and try it out. I was kinda skeptical to the quality since it was so cheap, but honestly the quality is rather good! I have been using it for a day now and I have to say, for a case this cheap it feels great. It's nice to have in your hands, I personally like the design. Also it has quite a rubbery feel which feels nice in your hands and also helps it laying on slippery surfaces. Also it is flexible, not too much though. I feel like it will definitely protect my phone if I might drop it or anything like that. The only thing I don't like too much is that the hard buttons are also covered by the cover. However this is not that a big deal, they still function nicely.
Here are some pictures of the cover itself.

Here is one of the cover used on the phone
If any of you guys would like to order this here you have a direct link to the cover:http://dx.com/p/protective-soft-tpu-back-cover-case-for-samsung-galaxy-s4-i9500-transparent-201232
This link is for the transparent one I am using, they also have it in black if you prefer that. So if you are looking for a cheap, but good quality cover for your phone I would definitely recommend this one! Also the ordering process is quick, and delivery to Holland only took around 10 days. You also don't have to pay shipping fees so you have a cover for only $2,40. Worth a try right?
For anyone worrying it says GT-I9500, this also fits on the GT-I9505 version since the phones are exactly the same in size etc.

Review of new case by Laza X-Armor Rugged Case

I just got my Laza Rugged x-Armor case for my Samsung S-5 and I love it!
I went with the black, but they have a lot of colors here: http://www.amazon.com/Galaxy-Impact-Resistant-Samsung-Protective/dp/B00PHP9X1K
I had another case on it but it wasn't holding up well. This case is dual layered and super easy to take on and off and came in really nice packaging. I've been buying laza products since my OG Evo days. I've dropped my phone a few times with this thing on it and it seriously protects all sides of the phone without making it a hideous bulky block.
It's dual layered which seems to offer protection against drops and dings really well. It also makes it really easy to hold.
Its relatively thin and light, but still has a lot of protection on all of the corners. All the buttons are easily pressed and there are holes to access all the charging ports and headphone jacks. I'd highly recommend it! It looks sweet and also protects your phone!

maybe...but considering how its dual layered and much cheaper than an otterbox, I considered it a steal.

Poetic HTC One A9 Affinity case review

I received this case a few days ago, this is the first Poetic case I've owned. I have heard positive things about them and decided to give them a try.
This case is really nice, feels good in my hand and most importantly the volume/power buttons have a nice solid feel to them. You know when you press them unlike some other TPU cases I've had.
The cut outs on the bottom are spot on and the edges are nice and smoothed.
Only issue I had was the bottom left corner. As you can see in the pics, it didn't seem to fit the corner of the phone properly. It could have just been due to the fact that I have a full body protector on the phone and that was not allowing the case to seat properly. Either way it doesn't hinder the usefulness of the case in any way.
For those looking for a clear TPU style case with solid rocker buttons and a really good feel and protection, I definitely recommend this case.

Last picture looks like bendgate.. is your phone ok??
Ps: why in the Fudge would i get a case on my A9 that looks like a Goober creature on my phone? Did u not notice this before uploading?

Phone is perfectly fine, look again and you can see the actual screen above the case.
Yes, really. I highly recommend this case.
The "goober creature" you see if you had any reading compression, is because of the full body skin I have.
