Kickstand?

Once someone makes one please post details in this thread.

Just received body glove cases with kick stand clip in store. Retailing for $29.99 as usual. It's not bad
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App

Just bought one of the body glove cases with a kickstand online for 17.95 with a free shipping code. I know someone in another thread got this as well recently and the pics he or she posted looked good in regards to quality but taking it apart may be a bit of a chore.
I'll post the link if anyone wants it, but I'll repost once I receive the case. I hope it works!

Post the link w/pics when u get a chance. I must have a kickstand case!

I know the Body Glove kickstand case for the HD2 was a bit of a pain to remove and seemed CLICK so loudly that people feared it might damage their device. Does the Sensation version go on and off without any noticeable issues?

Just got back from lunch and I got my bodyglove case. It is indeed the same you get at the tmo stores, but cheaper somewhat . As for the case, it works, it adds a bit to the phone which I am on the fence on right now. I kinda like it but takes away from the beauty of the phone. I took off the clip and put in the tab so that I would have a flat tab so that I can fit it into the leather case I also have.
I did try the stand. It works but seems a bit flimsy. I just don't like having my phones' face exposed to the elements like door jams and door handles and desk drawers at my office, so that is why I chose to not have that clip on. I don't know...I may want to sell this case in a day....anyone want it for 15 bux shipped?
Anyways here are the pics taken from the sensation. I do not have any pics of the case with the actual case on of course

I would be considering the body glove case for my new sensation, but the same case on my G2X actually started scratching the side of my phone. It's plastic on plastic, it makes scratches. Maybe it's different cause of the shape of the sensation (I hope so), but beware.

The only plastic is actually the top part that snaps on. It is kinda flimsy but fits nice and flush with the phone and no movement what so ever.
After a few hours, the case is growing on me but I may want to just get rid of it and buy the leather one from expansys that ships in a week.

The kickstand looks bulky, but whatever, it looks nice once it's standing up
I can put that in horizontal mode right?

Pictures, pictures please
I sued my landlord for $3000
I have some extra cash for the summer
The problem was that I had rodents (disgusting), so they took longer than 30 days
So I took a couple of pictures and threatened them to go to court and file for A LOT more money that my original request ($3K)
SO I had a meeting with the Vice-President of the corporation, it was a pretty nasty meeting, but anyway, I got my money
Bottom line is "A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS "
In my case, I spend $5 printing two pictures, I showed them to the Vice-President, and then we settled off-court

OMG that kickstand is nasty. Can't they make one that is more discrete?

Please let us know if the respond.
And yes I concur, the bg kickstand looks like a$$. I have since put the tab in there so that I have a smooth back and put that together and stills fit in my universal cheapy leather ebay holster.

I'd be surprised if HTC don't drop a hardshell with a kickstand. That body glove is nasty.

I checked out the body glove/kickstand at the Tmob store...

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)

The only thing I'm afraid of is that it'll turn yellowish over time.

Very happy
Just got mine 5 cases for 12 bucks good cheap cases live in Arizona the shipping only took 7 days from China. Very happy

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 )
Thanks

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.

[Q] Best Case and Screen Protector?

Anyone recommend a nice durable case that offer the most overall protection, with preferably not making it bulky? And what's a nice screen protector? I'm not really rough on my phones, but stuff happens. I just want to be protected.
I came across HTCDepot.com, is that generally a nice, legit site? I came across another one like HTCSensation4gaccessories.com or something, and it doesn't seem too legit.
Thanks

Here's my setup:
http://tpu-cases.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=25&zenid=ef4f8d65c98ae0a31c33842ab6b7dec1
A great case. Offers excellent protection, nice grip, and looks cool
For a screen protector:
http://www.bestskinsever.com/htc-sensation-4g-skin-566
Does the job rather nicely.
Excellent setup for protection and low-profile, IMO

What's the name of your case? That link doesn't work.
Thanks

I'll go for case mate. Just order one and i also have case mate with my vibrant.

My mistake. Follow the link, and just click on HTC Sensation 4G.
I have the smoked TPU case. Looks gorgeous.

I would recommend the smoked case as well. Some cases don't have all the holes cut out, so be wary of that when looking.

I already have screen protector and now thinking to get a cover. I have a question though, will the cover interfere with my WiFi or bluetooth signals as i see that wifi signal strength drops when i cover the upper area of phone. Will cover do the same thing ? what is yr experience ?

I agree with the tpu case I have the smoke grey color and it looks real nice.

I have the Incipio NGP. http://www.myincipio.com/HTC-Sensat...-Sensation-NGP-Semi-Rigid-Soft-Shell-Case.asp
This things is probably one of the best cases I've ever had as far as my uses go. It's a great fit, extremely durable, and doesn't add a lot of bulk.
My only complaint is that the cutout for the USB port is a little tight, so a lot of third party USB cables will push the case around when you plug them in. The HTC one is fine because the housing on it is nice and compact, but the bigger/more squared off housing on a lot of other cables just doesn't fit as well.
I use Ghost Armor for the screen, mainly because there's a kiosk at the mall near work, and they'll install it for me so I don't get air bubbles, etc.

That looks like the one that tmobile has... I have the gel skin that tmobile sells its fits the phone great and is very durable... I also have their screen protectors...

This one is a lot more rigid than the one T-Mo had from what I can tell.
It has almost no flex around the edges once it's in place. The T-Mo one seemed kind of "floppy" to me.

Does it attract a lot of dirt and dusts? (I had that problem with my T-Mobile Sensation 4G silicone case. Got rid of it for a TPU-case smoke grey)

No, it's not typical silicon case. It's much harder material and does not attract any dirt or dust. This is far more like TPU, but all the TPU cases I've seen for this phone were glossy, this has a matte finish.

CaseMate "Barely There" is the one for me.

I would suggest this pouch:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/HTC-Sensati...e=UTF8&qid=1329437355&sr=8-1&tag=acleint06-21
Really minimalistic look and feel.
Or get a :
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Supergets-Q...e=UTF8&qid=1329437392&sr=8-1&tag=acleint06-21
Or if you want to shell out some money:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Otterbox-Co...=UTF8&qid=1329437392&sr=8-10&tag=acleint06-21

Do not buy the OtterBox, always loved her, but the sensation was very bad. Case mate beautiful

I hate to be one of "those" people but theres already at least 2 very helpful CASE threads, lots of info and lots of pics so go to search and check them out.

i think that case-mate have many cases that are beautiful and enough proofing for Sensation.

There are mesh cases on ebay for about 2$.
I'm not sure how they will handle a fall, but they will protect the back cover from scratches.
Here is an example:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/250990237606?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
edit:
Just came home from work and the case was in the mail box.
My first impression is:
The case looks GREAT! The phone fits very well. there are holes for all the antennas (all the case is full of holes). I don't think it will protect your phone from a fall to the floor, but it will definitely protect it from scratches on the back cover AND on the screen! It has about 0.5-1mm "rail" on the screen side so when the phone is up side down, the screen does not touch the surface. It is possible to remove the back cover without taking off the case. I think the holes will help the phone to cool off.
I will try to post some pictures later if any one is interested.

If you don't mind waiting about 10 days, best bargain I've found IF you want a very thin and minimalistic case WITH Screen protector, here you go:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-Silicon...875643?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1c20d468bb
I ordered about a dozen for myself and coworkers. I got them at 1.99 shipped each, but they went up just a bit. For that price, get a few different colors.
Nice, tight fit and all holes are unobstructed and well cut out.

Never buying a hardcase again!
Never buying a hardcase again!
Sure the mesh ones look awesome but that's it, I bought 1 from ebay and it broke around the volume buttons within days of receiving.
Got a replacement from the seller and same thing!
Ended up getting a full refund.
Bought a $30 solid hard case from my local Optus Store (I'm an Aussie), was great for a few weeks then it too broke, they offered me a replacement but I opted for the full refund.
Totally disillusioned with hard cases!
Now I am about to test one of the TPU Clear Silicon Cases, fingers crossed it does the trick and doesn't some how melt and fuse itself to my Sensation XE.

Ballistic
I bought this case from amazon and the pics online look weird but in person its a nice looking case and solid feel and weight to it. http://www.amazon.com/Ballistic-SA0...sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330012302&sr=8-1-spell
There is a grey one and black. I got the black one . The company also has a website goballistic.com

The case came in yesterday, it's mediocre.
The case is securely in place but not very secure, it's fairly easy to take the phone out of it. It is thin so that means that it doesn't cover the front of the phone at all.
Also the camouflage paint doesn't go to the edges

I would be careful; in my experience cases will compound wifi problems with this phone (as in block the antenna). With my two cases I can never achieve a full 3 bar Wi-Fi signal.

That's my travel case. Great case. But my fav at the moment is the clear aprolink hybrid case. It's pretty much plastic with tpu trim for grip. The only drawback is that the rubber easily scratches, but I can't see it.

At first glance: The case is very slim. When you snapped in the case, it is not obviously noticeable. If you really like the design of your Xperia Z, this case would maintain its beauty very well.
Docking your phone: You have to use a bit more force in order to dock since the case added a bit of thickness to your phone (just a bit more force, not really much).
Quality: Although the design is great, the quality does not follow. The backplate is not really flat, some areas pop out so you can feel that you device is partially curvy. The material looks fine but the strength is not so good. After using the case together with the dock for a week, all corners of the case are cracked (but the shape is still maintained)
Summary
Pros: thin, barely noticeable
Cons: curvy back, easily cracked

Great review! Question where can i get this? Thanks!

It seems fine, the only dockable case I've seen till now.
I've googled it and found it but it's over 20$ + shipping. It's a big expensive from my point of view for being. I've seen it at 27$ that is 20-21€ shipping included in shop.brando.com
Could you please tell us where you've gotten it it and how much it has cost?
Thanks!

Purchased from Brando. 27$ in total (shipping to Thailand)

Is it TPU or is it hard plastic? From the pictures it seems to be the hard plastic type, aka polycarbonate.

Oh, I can read the title too.
But if YOU read the review properly, he mentions that the disadvantage is that it can be CRACKED. I've been using TPU cases for my phones and I know if it's TPU, you can't 'crack' it.

It's TPU but it can crack. Imagine a one time use plastic cup. It can be teared. The casr crack the same way.

You're confusing TPU with styrofoam. You can not crack TPU ("excellent mechanical properties, combined with a rubber-like elasticity", just Google it) . So this case is clearly not TPU if it can crack.

Sorry guys. I just checked with the official website trinity.jp. It is made from Polypropylene not Polyurethane (TPU) so it was my false.
TPU is a kind of plastic anyway

I was considering getting this case, the cracking issue is putting me off now.
what did you think caused the cracks?

Couple days ago, I just break it into 2 pieces. I used another case then changed to +Simplism, right before I put on the case, I'd held the case with both of my hands then pushed the part that poped out. It then broke into 2 parts.
So I tried an experiment, I flicked a broken part with my fingers as hard as I could. The result? It cracked.
I assumed that Polypropylene that the case is made of has low elasticity.
I just ordered 2 new anyway. Ther is no choice for me. The only low-profile way to protect while docking is this case. Otherwise, you will have to buy Noreve flip case, but it is bulky.

Just fitted the black one fits nice and tight I suspect taking it off again may be a problem and with free screen protector as well not bad gives some protection the attraction is not having toll take it out to charge in the dock

I have black one too, but i think that case is just a bit too small.

I got the white one and personally, I wish I'd saved my money. I have a small air bubble across the back and I don't actually think it would protect my phone if I dropped it. Oh and it feels like your holding tissue paper.

anybody has try this case into a alternative chinise copy dock? the $10 dock? thank you

I would like to order this one, but I would also like to know how is with 3rd party docks. Iv'e got both models of 2rd party and I would also like to know if it is possible to order this kind of case to europe? I know it is possible to order from http://chuwajapanimports.wazala.com/, but it is really overpriced ($21 + $35 for shipping).

I've use this case for about a month, it cracked after 2 drops to smooth marble floor around 1 meter height. phone was protected from scratch.
