Where can I get a real good case and screen protector for my vzw tp2 with all buttons and holes in the proper accessible spot? A clean perfectly clear non anti glare screen protector as well. Can I get something in my local verizon store or another local store? I won't be buying anything like this online. i don't trust online one bit for something this fine.
welcome to the digital age....
do it online. Buy a ghost armor or phantom skinz or the like skin protector. I've tried both on the TP2 and like both. Phantomskinz is a bit harder to install though.
Remember to cover the wetness indicators on your phone with a small piece of paper and tape.
I actually find purchasing the ones they have at the Verizon store work best for me they usually outshine the ones I buy online from ebay or other sites, but cost a bit more
I bought the phantom skinz full body one. Didnt really have any issues applying it. Just make sure it is completely dust free, i have one annoying spec of dust under the screen protector, but its one i can live with. dont notice it most of the time, and not worth the effort of taking off and reapplying it.
A while back phantom skinz was having a 2 pack special and a coupon that got me 2 full screen and body protectors for about $16.

Maybe you didn't see this the first time.
Was about to make a thread about this for me too
The age old question, WTF happened to all the accessories with these phones especially when your spending $400+ dollars or more for the handset? ridiculous that you have to BUY your own MEMORY CARD and CARRYING CASE now and HEADSET, it should come with it. My Original Sprint Touch came with everything for 350 bucks even the USB dongles, WTF happened to the Touch Pro 2 on Sprint?
As far as screen protectors and outer-case protection get GHOSTARMOR!!!!. this stuff is amazing if you have not seen it....... thanks to some fellow XDA members directions in other threads here.....
http://www.ghost-armor.com
From what I researched I think this is the superior full body protecting surface material on the market. They put this product on Military Jet wings and Helicopter blades. Watch the youtube videos they have to show how crazy this product works. I still cant believe this stuff works that good until I buy it for myself here this weekend for my new Sprint TP2. I am getting the full body protection.
also some other people in this forum have directed me thankfully to their credit, said to get PDAIR cases.

So far I am on a searching galore for a case too for my TP2 this weekend. I have not even activated my phone because I do not have a memory card or carrying case yet which sucks. So right now I am definitely getting GHOSTARMOR first and foremost. Someone told me to get Speck cases, but they currently only taylor iPhones, Palms and Blackberries.

I've used Seidio since my XV6800 days; just got mine for the VZW TP2 and love it.

For screens, no one beats BoxWave's Clear Touch.

I really like the ones that come with the Sprint TP2. I've tried to order extras from Sprint but they won't send me any nor will they tell me who they get theirs from. There's nothing on the backing sheet other than a number: 66H00031-00M. Anyone know where sprint is getting their screen protectors from?
I just would like to know if local vzw stores and other retailers have cases and screen protectors for the tp2. I'm don't wanna deal with online. However the case/protector at seidio looks good.
I called around to all my local verizon stores and no one even carries a touch pro 2 in stock let alone any accessories.
I am using the seidio Innocase mentioned above and I must say its amazing. I was hesitant to spend $30 on a case at first, bit it is well worth it. You wont be dissappointed

Something wrong with your legs?
Seriously, how is anyone 'online' supposed to know what your local VzW store carries; unless they're local, too?
For instance, my local vzw stores carry scant selection of the latest phones a limited stock of accessories none of which I like--curtesy of living in a rural area. So, I usually turn to BoxWave, Seidio, WMExperts Store, Amazon or ebay. And if an independent vendor gets rave reviews or I really like something they've got, I order it.
It's not rocket science.
Me sorry
I just thought all vzw stores are the same for the most part.
It looks like they've got a decent amount of Nexus stuff.

Personally, I'm waiting for incipio

or
Seidio

This is what I went with for mine:
Crystal Skin
Should be similar to the ones that were popular with the myTouch / Magic. The resin TPU ones.
And for screen protectors I will see if these are any good. Seems to be an invisible shield / BSE clone.
As long as they hold up until more accessories become available I'm fine.
I don't think the cases from fommy are good because some of the cases block the proximity sensor on the phone.
I've had the resin TPU one on my magic for quite some time, and its the best I have ever used. It doesnt add alot of weight to the phone, and lso one of the easiest to install.
I really hope somebody comes out with a carbon fiber case, that would be sweet.
I am getting the privacy screen protector from Fommy and I'll post back my findings on the sucker.
It'll be cool if moshi comes out w/ something. My friend has one for her iphone and it looks sweet! It is very stream-lined and doesn't make your phone any fatter. I typically hate cases. However, I think what moshi has looks pretty sweet.

That skin looks pretty cool. Care to share any pics of it installed onto your phone when you have a moment?
I know in the past people were saying that magnetic closures messed up the G1's compass over time. Is that turning out to be true? I would think the N1 and any other phone with a compass would suffer the same fate if that is the truth. I like having my compass..
I bought the Ferrari car charger from that site. I ain't get it yet but when I will, ill post a review.
never order from fommy! i had the worst experience with them. i ordered the screen protector and the clear case (both were pre-order).. and also another screen protector for my N97.. later realized they didnt have the cheapest deals.. wanted to cancel the order the same day i ordered them. called customer service, noone picked up. tried a hundred times.. emailed them as well to no avail. come monday, i get a confirmation email that one of the items was shipped. argh! finally after calling nonstop, a customer rep finally picked up. I can only be refunded for the two items that hasn't shipped yet.

Sorry to hear you had such a bad experience with fommy. I on the other hand had no problem with the site. I had no problem calling them and asking them and speaking to a representative.
What about the battery they have...That doesnt look like the right battery! It says it fits 3-4 phones....Dosent look right...What do yall think?
Be very careful ordering from Fommy
Anyone with a few minutes should take a look at this forum thread. It is a long thread and I don't expect anyone to read it all. The bottom line is Fommy does not have much of a credibility when it comes to their salespeople.

Hi Everyone,
Does anyone have a spare Neoprene Sleeve that came with the Nexus One that they no longer require / want ?
I am looking for a replacement for mine.
Many Thanks

Why are people so hard up for the Android sock?
Do you actually keep your N1 in it?
What happened to your original?
I think I put my N1 in it twice. I don't see the point of it.
got mine on craigslist... seller didn't have one... don't even care cause i'd never have used it! those pouches are useless IMO

It saved my precious from damage on at least three occasions!
Same here. I lost mine between eating at subway and going back to school.
Hey! I'm needing one of these cool neoprene OEM cases, but unfortunately in Pakistan , its hard to find.
Any one willing to sell their pair and ship it out to me.
If any one is interested plz PM me, so we can cut a deal and i can send you payment for it.
Thanks!!
Some on ebay from Hong Kong, might be knockoff or seconds but pretty much identical to the originals.
Hi Everyone,
Just got myself a nice unlocked and unbranded Desire Z (UK) at the weekend. I remember reading that the original G1 pouch is a good fit for the Desire Z, but I seem to have misplaced mine. Is there anywhere I can get an official one cheap, or has anyone come across any nice alternatives that are similar?
I remember liking the neoprene outer and soft liner of the OEM G1 pouch, it's a shame HTC aren't shipping them with this phone.
Ebay has a ton of them for like 6 bucks, that's where I got mine for my G2

Is it decent quality though? And do you have a link to the listing?
I don't have a link on me but its the same pouch that the G1. Its the exact official pouch
Oh ok, well I am going to have a better look for mine tonight. If not I will find one on ebay.

Just do a search for oem g1 pouch
The neoprene cases by BUILT are another option you may want to consider if you can afford to pay a bit more. They're extremely well crafted (good materials and stitching) and are a perfect fit... builtny.com

The only problem with that is, I live in the UK, and I don't want to pay for ridiculous shipping costs just for a pouch.
I have ordered a cheap knock off from ebay and will see how good quality that is, if it's rubbish I will look for a better one, maybe get the one you suggest.

If you got the oem case like I linked its the one that htc sent...not a cheap generic.

I already ordered it before you posted your link, but thanks anyway, I will probably get one of those if this is crap.
Ok let me know if you can't get the oem let me know, I'm in the states but shipping something that small shouldn't be that expensive to ship to the uk.
Yeah, it should be cheap, but it's still going to be more than one from the UK. Doesn't matter anyway, i guess no one else has any pouch recommendations.
Sent from my HTC Desire Z
Has anyone seen the tmobile one for the mytouch 4g? Its leather but not bulky and has a cut out slot at the bottom I'm guessing to see the track pad flashing.. I'm using my g1 one sometimes and a sidekick one other times..seems like that one would be the best of both worlds if it fits
Might be a bit late, but if the pouch you got turned out to be crap then I highly recommend (what I think is) the official Desire Z case found at clove.co.uk http://www.clove.co.uk/htc-desire-z-po-s540-pouch-case It's a leather pouch, with a lining similar to that used in the creen sleaning cloths (so cleans you're screen when you put it in/take it out!) It's a very snug fit, excellent quality and has the HTC logo pressed on it, so I assume it's genuine. It also comes with a tab you pull to take the phone out as it's a very secure fit. I can't speak more highly of a case for a phone than this! Even if you already have one, I still recommend you check it out, it's a uk website and only £9
EDIT: £10.80 inc VAT, possibly also p+p fees.
look for a krussel pouch, its thick real leather... very nice, i have one, its around £10, off ebay. hope this helps

Just searched for "krussel pouch" on eBay and it came up with zero results. I've been thinking about maybe getting a pouch case just to change things up a bit.

No, the one where the phone fits in vertically (portrait). Saw a couple on Amazon, but not sure if that's the route I want to go. Still thinking about it though.
I picked this up and it works perfect, nice tight fit

heres the link for the krussel one guys its really nice, ive been using it for over a week and its brilliant. top quality!
I'm be looking for a replacement part for my Photon Q: it has dropped and the external plastic, the one around the screen section, got scratched. NOT the screen, just the rectangular plastic around the phone. I would need to buy a genuine replacement, cheap, if possible, for it.
I will be buying the Otterbox Commuter also, since I don't want it to get in bad cosmetical state so quickly, again.
Thanks for the help
Tony
Any help?
Other than the obvious - ebay and the like... I am not aware of any place that specifically sells hardware like that.
Good luck.

Wow, that's actually really helpful, thanks, I was looking for a something like this a while ago, just so I can experiment with the phone.
Thanks again.
