i just received an official response from Case-Mate regarding the fit of the Tough Case after sending them a nice email
"Thank you for contacting case-mate and for your interest in the Tough case for your HTC One X/XL phone.
We have recently identified some issues/defects with the design of the case. Some of the issues are merely aesthetic, and some actually affect the fit of the case on the phone.
The Tough case will be undergoing some revisions in the coming weeks. We do not have a definitive date on when the revised case will be available, but we expect it to be soon.
When the case is available, it will be compatible with all versions of the HTC One X/XL.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
Kind regards,
Fola A

I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any cases like this available yet or if anybody is making a case like this? My friend has some cases like this for his Iphone and they are reall good at protecting the phone.

Those are cool. I'd like to see something for the N1 that made by Speck, like these:
http://www.speckproducts.com/products/candyshell/iphone-3g-iphone-3gs/162
Had one for my iPhone 3G and it was PERFECT.
Best iPhone case I used was the incase slider - wish there were cases like that for the N1. Seidio Innocase II is somewhat similar, but the cutouts could be a bit better. Also, quite expensive trying to buy the case and getting it delivered to Aus.
Nice looking cases in the links...we definately need more case selections than just Seidio!
I've e-mailed both companies, Switcheasy said they are only doing Apple products right now but who knows what the future will hold, and case mate hasnt gotten back to me yet. Hopefully one of them starts or maybe a different company will.
I think I recall reading in another thread that Case-mate are going to start manufacturing Naked cases. They already have Clear Armour for the N1.
I emailed Speck and they said to basically monitor the website for new products.
It was a canned response. :-(
I returned my SGS2 Skyrocket today. I will not be maintaining this thread. If anyone wants to start a new one, here is the source.
VERY IN PROGRESS - This is merely an idea of what's to come. Suggestions and help welcome!
Hello all. I decided it would be good to have one thread in which all the popular Skyrocket accessories were consolidated, but I couldn't find one, so I decided to make one. If a links to an XDA thread is greyed out, I couldn't find a thread for that particular accessory.
It's worth noting that T-Mobile SGS2 cases will not work with your Skyrocket as the speaker is in a different location.

Is it Barely there in aluminum? The aluminum backing is garbage.
BTW Seidio has cases too!
Seido has 2 versions of their cases available, as well as a universal USB Stand.
I own the Surface and Active Combos and highly recommend them if you like a belt clippable case (The Active has a kickstand too if you are into that kind of thing)

Edit for Clarification: I don't own stock in Seido or work for them, but have had their cases on most of my phones and have had good experiences. If you like Silicone/Rubbery type cases the otter-box Impact was the first case I tried with the Skyrocket.

I like the ability to have a belt clip for each of their options, but SHEESH. Not cheap. If you buy separately, the holster alone is $30. A but overpriced if you ask me...but they seem well done...

Wow I really like those rearth cases. Never seen those before, kinda like the Seidio cases but the slim looks a lot slimmer than any other cases out there. Really wonder if either of the cases will fit in the seidio holsters. If anyone out there has an rearth case and knows someone with a seidio holster can you check if it fits?? Thanks in advance!!!
Amazon has OEM (NFC) 1850mAh batteries from multiple sellers from $23-30. Just ordered one. I can post an update when I get it how/if they actually work if anyone's interested. Serial numbers are the exact same, but it wouldn't hurt to verify.

Absolutely let us know how they work (apparently some non-OEM batteries won't charge in the phone, etc). If they work, thats not a terrible price.

I'll check. Conveniently got an Amazon giftcard from my brother today, so I had to buy it, lol. It says it's for the Hercules, but the serials are the same (EB-L1D7IBA), so I don't see why there would be an issue. Time will tell!
Here are the links for a few of the listings. The one I got was the last one the seller had, so those aren't available anymore, but there still are a few out there with plenty:

Is there any solid case available for galaxy tab 8.9?
Similar to the cases from gumdrop and otterbox.
Thank you
It seems there is no solid case available because I have checked nearly every homepage and onlineshop from the well-known case manufacturers. Hopefully someone of them will release a rugged case within the next weeks or months.
Hello my fellow case freaks, If your like me you love cases, and probably have a bunch. Well I have a lot and Im still always looking for new ones. The other day I got a promo email from Spigen about a new case they built for the iPhone 5. Its called the Slim Armor S. Its basically a revamped version of the regular Slim Armor case. The inner TPU lining is softer and delivers better button response and improves impact protection and shock absorption with its strategically designed spider-webbed interior. It also has a redesigned outer polycarbonate midsection with an improved matte finish coating that offers better grip and feel. So anyway I contacted Spigen to ask if they had any plans on releasing the improved Slim Armor S for the Galaxy S4 and I got this response.
Thank you for contacting Spigen.com Customer Service Department. Thank you for your interest in our Spigen Products!
As of now, we don’t have any definite plans to make the Slim Armor S for the Galaxy S4 yet. However, if there is increased interest from our customers, we may change our production plans in the future. Please check our website, facebook, and twitter pages for any updates time to time.
So this is my reason for the post. I am hoping anyone else that would be interested in a new Slim Armor S for the S4 would contact them and ask also. If they receive enough interest maybe they will. I tried to find an easier way to contact them but unfortunately I couldnt. You have to register here , then go here to create a help ticket. Leave it at "To Do", then write in a topic. Then under that choose "product inquiry" from the "Department" drop down. Leave the "Assign an Order" blank. Then you just write a quick message asking about the possibility of a new Slim Armor S for the Galaxy S4. Heres what I wrote originally as an example.
"Hello. I just received an email from Spigen showing the new Slim Armor S for the iPhone 5. It is a very nice case. I was wondering if you had plans to create and release a Slim Armor S for the Galaxy S4. I have the S4 and love my other Spigen cases for it, and would love to see the Armor S for it as well. I buy and review a lot of cases, and think an Armor S for the S4 would be a great addition to an already awesome line up of cases. Anyways just a suggestion. Thanks"
Hopefully that will work. But it definitely wont if they dont get any interest. Thanks for your time.

Done. I like the new Gunmetal and Silver colors so hopefully this will be made available for SG4 as well.
If they release a matte white one, that'd be very tempting even though I already have a white SA. The matte finish on the SA I got for my friend's iPhone 5 is pretty fantastic.

No kidding about matte finishes. Will never understand the allure of shiny plastic. Make matte versions of a case and ill buy it. As for the softer TPU id be down. Im a bit of a case collector and I definitely enjoy the neo hybrid i have
Hi
My Ringke case broke today. I want one for my nexus. Since it's not available in the market anymore. If anyone of you has it and is willing to sell. I will buy it.
Location - India
Please
My ringke fusion case too broke. Can't seem to find a decent replacement, very hard to find Nexus 4 cases online now. Had ordered 2 different times, one was the wrong type and the other which I'm using is so flimsy and badly built. So if anyone knows a good site (product) to order from in India, do please share.
I'm assuming you're talking about the fusion case, I can't find it anyone, but the slim case is still available on eBay here in the states.
I've got a Ringke Fusion case I'm willing to part with. Send me a PM if you're still interested.
