Not sure if this will work with everyone or not. I noticed only when I had this newer case I bought on my phone. I didnt have any feedback issues with other cases or while the case was off. After reading that someone had a full body guard on their phone and had feedback issues because the bottom mic was covered I took the case out and sure enough the thick silicone part had that mic sealed right up. I took a good eye measure and cut just a small square out of the bottom and bingo it works perfect now with no issues. Like I said, I am not sure if this is the case for everyone but I have tested it with both my white and black skyrockets on both GB and ICS and it fixed the issues. Hope this helps people out who were mad just like I was not to be able to use their nice new case. Please hit the thanks button if this helps you out.
Here are a couple pics to show where it was cut out compared to a case that worked fine and already had the hole for the bottom mic.....
Case that didnt have any issues at all....

Case that I had to cut.....

I would like to increase the brightness of the LED button backlights. I noticed that there appears to be some sort of material between the LED and the plastic outer case. It looks like a yellow/beige material with miniature holes when the buttons are lit up.
I wonder if upon opening the case if this material could be cleaned/removed so that the LED would appear brighter.
Has anyone opened their Captivate and looked to see if there is some sort of removable material or paint between the LED and the case? I wanted to see if anyone else had explored this possibility before I attempt to open up my Captivate.
Although this tear-down thread is quite helpful, it doesn't show the portion of the phone where the buttons are located:

There does seem to be something blocking them, tear yours apart and find out!
Replacement screens can be found on ebay for $60-90.

thanks for the link
Just bought one of these for my Desire HD and it turned up this morning...
pretty impressed with it
Flip case with good padding on the edges which rap around the phone and gives a secure fit.
Edges are well padded as in the front screen section this has extra padding to help save the screen
Just over £20 with delivery from Mobile Fun...

A link to my google page rather than spamming here...

Thanks for posting the photos! I've been looking at this case. How has it held up so far? How securely does the Desire HD fit into the case - does it lock or snap in well?
i saw my friends using this case, seems preety awesome...maybe time to change case for my self
wow this looks really good and promising. But my concern is with the flipping part, like how's holding the phone in landscape? like are there any problems? does the flip get in the way or does it fold all the way to the back?
time to change my case?!
But i dont understand one thing, when you make a call, is the flip just hanging around, or how is it in use? Does it flip up or down?
Looks very backward on the pics from mobilefun.co.uk...

I saw those, but didn't like the flap bit at the top. So i got one of these, doesn't have the flappy bit, but only used it the once.
nice will have a look
I had one of these, very cheap quality. I also wouldn't recommend this case because of the magnet, it made my screen flicker for no reason. took ages for it to go away after i stopped using the case.
Ugly!
Well, it's a matter of person taste in the end. But still. Urgh.
looks very bold
my 2 cents on the cases
I have purchased both cases from dx. I like model 2 better as it has a bit more internal foam in it to protect the phone. I've dropped mine from 4 feet onto concrete and the phone was undamaged. I've never seen the magnets cause any problems on my phone i9000m. For the price I really like the case.
Just thought I'd share the case I picked for my Inspire. You can buy it here:
http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Thermoplastic-Polyurethane-Universal-Silicone/dp/tech-data/B004PJY8P0
And, no, I'm not the seller lol
At a first glance, it doesn't look very cool, but their picture on Amazon is just crappy and doesn't represent what it really looks like. So, I took a couple of pictures for you to see:

Sorry for the big size, but I wasn't gonna spend time editting pics for this purpose. Overall, it's thin (which is the way I like for my cell phone cover), gives you good grip but doesn't collect dust, and has a semi-transparent cool look to it. The best part is, it's only $7! (+shipping = about $10).
I know it looks a little bluish in the pics, but it's the lighting. It's actually the same color as the back metal cover of Inspire 4G.
I'm pretty happy with it. Oh, just so you know, the free silicone ball stand is a junk, so forget about it. I already threw it away. It doesn't bother me because I wanted the case, and it's a good case for the price!

Hi ppl,
I'm looking for durable waterproof case.
It needs to be saltwater proof and UV-ray proof and floating is advantage also.
Any suggestions and experiences?
Thanks
http://www.amazon.com/Krusell-95333...08Q4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1329583596&sr=8-1
Thanks for suggestion, i'll google it to see if there are some reviews.
Any experience with it?
And for others with same questions, I found Aquapac and Over-Board bag solution also, and Aquapac has floating abilities (allegedly)...but neither of two is elegant-looking like Krusell...
no, unfortunately i dont have any experience with it or others. i dont wanna spend that kinda money for something i wouldnt really use that much. Just seen the case on amazon a few times lol
well, i'm not sure that Krusell case will play nice with power button and volume rocker and with that price tag its a no-go...
Im using this "Mobile pouch".

The good thing is that you still can use the touchscreen when the phone is in the bag.
I think i'll go with this:
