Custom onex case - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Howdy guys!!! Just thought I'd share a little project of mine with you. I have always coveted the cuisine et ochs one x so I made one myself. I bought a white case at radioshack and taped it off and painted half of it black. Let it dry for a few days and then I took a screen protector and covered the back so that it wont scratch. Then I made my own black and white background to match. Came out pretty. Anyway here's some pics for you guys.

Thanks! It was all hand done with a paint marker and some good ol masking tape . I came out much better than I expected. Maybe I ought to start making custom cases lol.

I like that, looks different and real clean.

Unicorns do exist...but they're expensive.

nice

I have considered painting my otterbox case on a few occasions but I'm concerned the paint will just chip off.
Cool stuff dude!

That why I covered the back with a screen protector. Keeps it looking freshly painted for a long time.

What case are you using ??? Just curious

Tell you the truth I don't remember the name of it.Through the package away. But I bought it at Radioshack.......for about 20 bucks.

This case is from PointMobi. It's not a half-bad case. I've used it for a bit now and am pleased. RadioShack had a discontinued price tag on it, I bought it for $8.97 or so and they aren't listing it on their site any longer. I also haven't had any luck finding it in a quick Google search.
I've attached a pic of the packaging showing all of the relevant details.

I had bougt a pink one for my mom. They are great. Slightly thinner than the cases that have the bar going across. It seems like the phone also slides easier. Not dragging against keyboard. Also makes the phone look sleeker and not so much like the Moment.
Well worth the price. I'd go with one from the op first link, not the second.

THere you go, pics of my white xmatrix case.
The plastic is very thin. It still allows the slider to function with no catches or anything. the bottom piece is easy to remove and it almost a rubbery flexible plastic. Very nice but the top is another thing it was very hard to remove.
Awesome for $5. I chose this over the seidio because of its price and unique looks comparison wise
shoot for 1.45 i might buy 10-15 of these things lol

HTC Original case

I found a case with code HC C740 in a shop in my country...ordered after looking on many sites and pictures with that case...I also found an youtube video about this case..received today....WOW!...AWESOME!...superb finish, personally i think that is the nearest finish to the original...I will post some pictures later, when I`ll be at home...I think that is the best and beautifull case for our lovely device.
Edit: I have the black version of OneS.
skodann do you have any pics of the case on your phone?

I just saw it today in the store, it was a black one.
The kickstand didn't feel too sturdy and the case was a bit bulky, however, I thought it added some substance to the phone being it's almost too thin.

Do you mean this one: http://www.clove.co.uk/htc-one-s-hc-v741-hard-shell-with-cover-and-stand-black
It's the one I got with the phone and from the looks of it, it's actually the same hardshell as the C740, but with an added leather cover for the screen which can also be folded over to use as a stand. Excellent quality and really like it. Two niggly things to note with it are you can't have it plugged in while using it as a stand, and as the leather on the outside is facing whatever surface you have it on while using it as a stand, it can slide about quite easily when trying to use the phone on smooth surfaces (to be clear this is when trying to interact with the screen - e.g typing - not while it is just sitting playing a video). Both minor points for me, and I would recommend this case over just the hardshell due to the screen protection and stand function.
tl:dr version
+excellent htc quality
+screen protection
+stand
+doesn't add much bulk
-can't charge while using it as stand
-can move about on smooth surfaces when using as a stand
i think these are the cases that some are looking for, but they don't seem to be available yet.
I saw those original case and the kickstand in a mall in Toronto !!

I bought the Original HTC Clear-Hardcase and Screen Protector yesterday.
For each I paid 11,99€ which is f*n expensive in my opinion, but I think its well worth it to have original accessories on my baby.
( Original ) Screen Protector
I know this is not the thread for this, but I´ll show it anyway
HTC Clear-Hardcase
Both Products are Tripple-A Quality.
The Screen-Protector Package includes 2 "films". If applied correctly you wont every recognize that theres something on the screen ( like on the photo above ).
I also really like the Hardcase, the only problem with this is that its a little slippery on smooth surfaces.
EDIT:
Both Images are a little bit out-of-focus, since I used a 50mm Objective to take those.
I can take new pictures with another one, if requested.
I got the black case the day after I got my phone, around 5 weeks ago. The finish feels very similar to the black phone itself, with the colour matching.
The case is very slim, and you really wouldn't notice it was there. It adds no real extra size to the phone.
My only small issue with the case is that the top and bottom of the phone are exposed still. I'd prefer a little more coverage, but overall, the case is pretty awesome.
looks a LOT like my case

From the pictures on the site, the feather looks exactly the same except the bottom part looks like it wraps around a bit further and the top has an extra piece that covers the middle section between the headphone jack and the power button.
Just ordered a feather. Will report back when I get it.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Just got my feather in and I can tell you that there is a reason they don't show you what it looks like directly from the front. The case is much thicker than they would lead you to believe and is pretty damn ugly when it's on. I will never use this case.
^dang sorry to hear that
Well Im going get mine in the mail soon so I guess I know what to expect

It is almost flush with the camera lens, MAYBE a little bit thicker. If you lay the phone down on its back it definitely does keep the camera lens off the table, there is like a .5mm gap that I can see through. So yes, but not by much.

Got mine today. A bit pricy imo, I try to not spend more than $10 on a case. Keeps the thin profile and the material actually makes the phone easier to grip. I like the fact that the front portion is flushed with the phone(not good for ppl who like putting their phones face down). Probably gonna be switching between this case and the Amzer case. Really liking it.

Been rocking the black with my white HOX. Love it!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
They don't have a white case and I couldn't decide between buying the gray or the black for my white HOX. Finally settled on getting the gray one (I figured it didn't really matter since I'm planning on having a few cases sitting around to swap as my mood changes).
I've never been a huge fan of any soft plastc/silicone since they are huge dust and hair magnets. I have a jack russell and this thing loves to attract hair and pet dander.

Matte finish wearing?

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone who has been using the HOX naked has had any issues with the matte finish wearing off and becoming glossy? When the phone was first released, I heard a bit that this might happen, so I wanted to see how everyone is fairing.
I bought my HOX on day 1 and got one of the OEM HTC cases (blue one with horizontal slots along the whole back).. and its been HORRIBLE! The casing is so thin that it started to crack in the corner when I removed it to clean or change my SIM card. Eventually, a piece of the case broke off. I then checked my One X and found out that dust had been trapped underneath and because it was loose, scuffed up the whole bottom of my phone! It was a complete waste of $20. So now I'm thinking about going nude for the time being.
Rocking it naked without an issue. Having a sleeve custom made, though, just to have a little bit of protection while running around. Pics will be posted once I finally get a chance to pick it up.
Grey. Naked since day one. No problems.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Just thought I'd throw this out there. My naked white is still incredibly clean. Rubbing it slight removes all small blemishes. I still haven't had any major mishaps with the white but I'm fairly confident that it will come off easily if I get proper cleaning materials. King of surprised by how clean it is really.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
This sounds pretty good guys, doesnt sound like i need to worry much about being naked
No its fine naked. Just like the post have mentioned. A good minimal case that adds no bulk really is the case mate barely there case. If you need a case I recommend you check that out. It is very very thin and looks good. Just in case you decide you want to try a case.
Sent from my HTC One X
The matte finish is definitely starting to wear and I don't believe it will hold up. Look very closely and under bright light right by the speaker grill where the phone normally rests when sitting on a surface. There is a bit of wear in the matte finish. I can confirm this on two different device. These are white ones. This is too bad because I was really hoping the case on this phone would be super durable. With the way HTC talked it up it sounded indestructible. Looks like it's time to see how well the s3 case is holding up for people...
Nothing makes me cringe more than a beautiful design hidden behind a case. But, I also feel for those whose naked phones go flying to the ground.

Naked. There is a very slight "chin" on back just below the "beats audio" logo.
This is the area that touches whatever surface the phone is set down on. On my HOX this area is starting to "smooth" very slightly. Noticeable by eye really and only in good light. Not causing me any concern.
The One X just feels too good in hand to put a case on. :good:

The One S had a ceramic coating that would chip off and reveal the metal underneath. Our phone is plastic.

dbrand skins for the 2nd Gen 2014 Moto X

I got an email from dbrand and they are planning on making a skin for our 2nd Gen Moto X! I have had a dbrand skin on my last three phones: Nexus 4, Nexus 5, and Moto X (2013). If you haven't had the opportunity to deal with dbrand before, I can tell you from experience, they are a great company to work with, and they make a really quality product. I have attached a couple pictures of the skin on my now retired Moto X (2013). They said to expect them sometime in November. Hopefully they will join in this thread to keep us updated. They were very active in the Nexus 5 forum. I cant wait to slap on a skin!
yeah, i emailed them last week and asked if they were doing a Moto X 2014 skin. they got back to me within the hour and told me once that the Moto X 2014 skins should be out very shortly. the production got pushed back a bit because of the Nexus 6
Just got an update email from dbrand, here is the juicy part:
dbrand said:
In terms of an ETA, we’ll likely have the 2014 Moto X skins available on our site by the 24th at the latest. If all goes well, we should have them available for pre-order by this Friday.

I've been playing with the Nexus 6 on the site, and I dont know if I'm going to go with black leather, brushed titanium, or blue. Might have to get all three.
Looks like they're available now.:good:
Edit: Linky
I bought a leather back and am kinda regretting it now. I might swap it so I can put one of these on!!
So this is tempting - I'm getting white bamboo, however the crappy part is you can't add dark metallic with white front, only black front. This could cure that problem. Go with the bamboo back, black front, red trim and then get a white matte front from db skins to out on. Anyone's thoughts?! I don't want to put something on a brand new phone and it seem cheesy...
I'm really keen on picking up one of these..the color ones most probably since we don't have a chance to use motomaker in my country (India).
Can anyone here who's used the dbrand skin before tell me if its really as textured as it looks on the website? I'm hoping so since that'll help with the 'grippiness' factor and not just look like a piece of colored paper stuck on.

That's how it looked on my oneplus one
I bought 3 skins for my N4. Black leather, titanium and mahogany. They all added grip, though the N4 has a glass back. The titanium was so textured I did not like it and gave it to my sister in law. Used mahogany the most, which I think is about as grippy as the matte black (only Canadian option) Moto X. Probably a little more grip clean but holds grease with use. I had no issues except after a while the inside of the nexus lettering came off, but that was over a year.
I will be getting a back sticker, still not sure which. I would love to see real life pics of the front and the accent ones as they look a little silly on the site.

Anyone care to comment on how well it sticks? I never used a skin and fear the corners will lift. Also if removed will it leave adhesive behind?
The moto x looks like it was made to run a skin nicely with its clean separation of back panel to metal sides so actually looking forward to trying a dbrand skin

I still haven't gotten mine. I preordered a few days before release and they shipped about 2 weeks ago. They ship from Canada by traditional postage and don't have tracking. The site says to allow 7-14 business days for delivery so hopefully soon.
I got the mahogany and the black carbon fiber.

I had one on my 13 X. It never peeled on me and when I decided to take it off, it left behind no evidence that it was ever there
I had dbrand skins for all my phones. Now for the corners to stick just use a hair dryer and keep applying pressure.
Dbrand is the bees knees....probably going to get a bamboo front skin to finish off the look
All that is good to hear. I originally planned on getting a black carbon skin but changed my mind to white last minute, the contrast between the metal frame and white looks like it will be sweet! Hope it comes soon
The bright colored ones seem to have a very high grip texture by the looks of it but those colors are just too bright for me. I was also tempted to get the black titanium one since I liked the texture on the body glove satin case.
I will post pics when it gets here.
Rreally? I'm the first one with pics?
ok, thoughts: cut is near perfect. I mean like only maybe a half mm off in certain places, but pretty much exactly the same size as the back. The camera and logo cutout are almost perfect. The skin does not cover the mic at the top and it also has a tiny hole for the mic at the bottom. Easy application. WELL worth the money IMO.
Just got mine today, and I am as impressed as I thought I would be. Fit is almost perfect, just a fraction out in places like my Nexus 4 was. The coloured back is not as grippy as I expected, the softouch is better for grip for sure. I feel like the mahogany (based on the Nexus 4) is a little better but I should let the blue wear a bit. On that note, the edge by the Moto dimple is apparent to my finger, but I think that will wear smooth eventually. I can confirm it is residue free when you remove from the softouch back since I applied it a few times trying to get it perfect.
I am not understanding this. You choose from leather, wood, or twenty some-odd other colors, and you'd rather cover it with a sheet of vinyl?
I can understand a case to protect against drops, but what purpose does this serve?
