Hello,
I have an HTC inspire 4g. I have an otterbox defender on it and love it. But the phone is getting to where it needs a cold reboot every once in a while. And the otterbox isn't ideal for taking on and off. So I was wandering if anyone knew if there was a case I could that protected the outer rim around the camera lense but wasn't just a back cover that left the front exposed and unprotected.

I've been using a silicon case for over a year, and it's working fine for me. I spent 15 dollars at an accessory at the mall. I never put my phone in high risk situations and have only dropped it a few times

Do you know the brand name of the case?

Sorry no it's just a generic off brand
I wouldn't think it would be that hard to find on you like. I always have the best luck with authorized retailers the have better cheaper cases than the factory stores.

Well I just thought everyone would like to know that you should not buy the screen protectors from Verizon. The are square and don't cover all of the front of the phone. I recommend searching amazon or eBay instead.

Wow, I feel like a jerk. Didn't heed your warning. Bought em. You're right, they're ****! Luckily, they took them back...

the only prob i see with ordering off of ebay is sometimes they say they are sized and cut to the screen and when they arrive they have either a gap at the top or the bottom depending on how you put them on.
Just go to bestbuy our radio shack

It will do the job! I have yet to drop a phone when it's in an otterbox. Now take it out and I swear I wind up dropping it, then kicking it across the floor. I just want to be able to keep it on my side. I plan on getting a siedo case later. If this holds up, may not need to.

Actually I did the cut out on that same tpu cover you got. The case is still pretty sturdy. Waste high drop no problem. The rubber is taking the beating. All what you prefer though. And if ya mess up otterbox will send you a new one if you tell them the clips holding it together broke. Just s suggestion though.

nice ingenuity. you could have heated the edges of the plastic and pressed the cover over the battery to keep the strength and protection too.

Just so everyone knows! I just drop kicked my tb across the room cuz I couldn't make a call! Still works like new. Service went down and I thought my tb took a dump. I love this phone!!!

Uh you could all save yourself alot of time and money and just get the Trident Electra case. I have literally drop kicked my phone just to show a friend of mine how good this case is. And it comes with an extended battery so you will have another.
Just curious....what did you use to cut them? I'm thinking of using a coping saw, but wish I still had my dremel.
Ah I heated up a flat blade screwdriver with a bic lighter soldering iron I had was not heating up
Then I cut the screwed up plastic slag with side cutters

Another thread here, talks about this case scratching the phone, specifically the outer metal frame.
see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1129485
I've used it for months now and i have no scratches, its lined with felt stuff, so unless you rub sand in there, i don't think it can scratch it...

I'm REALLLLLLY looking into getting this case for my G2x... Only thing that worries me is scratches. If I get it, I might end up modifying the inside of the case. Maybe make it more impact resistant?
Hello my fellow xda users
Im really sorry if there its a thread about this case but I couldn't find it anywhere.
Im thinking about buying this case for my phone but I really hate buying something without doing any research.
Could someone please tell me if I should but this case? It seems to be new on Ebay. If you have bought this case please let me know what you think about it. :beer:
Thank you

I just bought this case. It is great. It is probably the most protective case out right now. My only issue is it is a bit large and is a pain to slide in and out of your pocket.
But I'm no longer afraid of shattering my fragile phone.
Also the case makes it a bit hard to pull down the notification bar.
I combined it will a full body best skin ever and I'm positive my phone will look brand new a year from now when I sell it. Also the skin feels very natural, unlike invisishield

Otterbox has stopped selling the defender case for the note 8, I can find them on Amazon and e -bay but since they don't ship to Japan I'm left high and dry. Any ideas how to get my hands on one....I'm using the ballistic case now without a problem, but it's time to put my baby in a different case...

Got one, I couldn't get a glacier one, but the black one is good enough. It's definitely lighter than the ballistic case.....Nice case!
