Where do get a genuine OEM battery cheapest?

I was thinking of biting the bullet and going to a sprint store...........but nah

for the price of buying one at the sprint store, you could buy 6 generics and a 3 at once charger. 22 bucks on ebay.
there is always the chance they will just give you one at the sprint store too. you never know. if it is a service and repair center, they might have a bunch of extras laying around from sendbacks.

i have 6 of those generics id prefer the oem
and I meant from sprint store bundled with the charger

The charger/cord that came with the epic is crap. I use my old HD2 charger/cord. You don't want that thing.

meant this

well, details in the first post as to what your looking for are good, but like you, i like to take 3 posts to explain my self too. i guess you found what you are looking for. thread closed now?

no i meant i was gonna get this but its way too much
i was inquiring as to finding a genuine one online cheaper

You won't.

Search using the oem battery model number. I found an OEM battery and the charger case for around $20 bucks.

I say try this, back when I had an HTC Touch I was given an extra battery twice when I took my phone in for repair.

Try this:

I mean at the sprint store I work at, we tend to just give new batteries to those who complain about bad drain for free.

I found it for ten bucks less on amazon.

$22 is not less than 10

The link you gave had it for $35. Do you want just the battery or the battery dock bundle?

Why are you guys doing all the work for this one? There is a little site called google. Try to copy and paste the model number of the dock you want in the search bar. Trust me. It works.
Now what's the next q? Let me guess. Where do I find that?

Otterbox [Mother of all cases] for the G2

Hello,
So I am thinking about getting a G2. Thing is I love otterbox. They are so lovely. I have one on my 9900 right now (yea I know, its a blackberry.. flame me..)
I have found evidence (more evidence) of an ancient myth- that there was production of the otterbox for the G2/Desire Z. Problem is looks like they are a commodity right now. I found one on ebay (for $99- no thanks) and amazon has none in stock. I couldnt find any on craigslist. Any other ideas or successful vendors you G2's users have used (pun) ?
Or better yet, anyone want to sell me theirs?
Thx.

Whoa, those prices are ridiculous. I am currently typing this on my Otterbox Commuter covered G2 and it is indeed awesome, unfortunately I won't be departing for a new device for quite some time...
Your best bet will definitely be getting one off of an owner who has or will be moving on soon. Best of luck good sir.

Two links I found after a quick Google search, I have never dealt with either of these sellers, so as always be vigilant and use PayPal if you can.

i have the otterbox commuter case for the Vision/DZ/G2 that I am not using right now. Had it on and loved it, but grew to like the feel of the phone by itself. If you want to cover shipping, I could send it off to you. PM me if interested.

PM sent. Thanks.

I liked mine, but my front panel broke after a month or so, and so did a few other people I know

I agree the cover is great but the front is weak. They have stopped making the covers so that's why the prices are high.
I am currently using the otterbox back and a case mate front. (Case mate had a weak back).

I found some new ones for 30~. http://pathfindersalesdirect.com/otterbox-commuter-htc-g2-desire-z-black?filter_name=g2
About to place my order.

I would not recommend this site to anyone. I placed an order a week or so ago and it still says processing with no reply from the site. Pretty sketchy. Luckily I used PayPal and have a dispute in.

I have one of these outbox cases and it is the best investment it has saved my phone from the concrete floor of my basement many times I found mine on Google shopper and it was under 20 dollars be wary of skechy sites and sellers tho
Sent from my HTC Vision

Truth. I finally got one and its probably my favorite thing about my G2 (lol). I love this case, its so perfect. I finally hunted one down after sketchy site after sketchy site was out of stock (thanks paypal for the refunds).
I bought on here and actually bought one at the same time on ebay; just in case, because these cases are rarer than diamonds. Go otterbox!

I do like how the majority of the Otterbox cases on eBay have the exact same picture... it makes me feel very safe buying from them (sarcasm)

Oh yea, thats my favorite when all the sellers have "their own personalized photo" on the item. And good luck finding an otterbox they are more rare than diamonds.. And way better, I love mine!

Same here, this phone just felt solid without my otterbox. But nonetheless it is a great case.

These phones seem to be immune to concrete anyway the amount of times I've dropped it when drunk.

Don't you guys think it makes the phone too thick? I'm considering such a case aswell but it looks very very chunky when in the ottercase...
Any opinions on this topic?

Darn cheap qi charger! But be aware!

Hey everyone!
Wanted to show you this:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Wireless-Charger-QI-TX01/705466062.html
I'm very very unsure if this seller is legit or what's the problem with the product. Because it can't be that cheap.
Anyway I did order two of them anyway . (With a secure card btw)
And will give you a input if (and thats a big "if")and when I get them.
Sincerely

lol 20 dollars would be cheap, $1.50 shipped from Guangdong is damn sketchy.

i would not even touch that. i dont even feel safe giving them my payment information

Thought it would be fun to show you this. Yeah, I think it's scetchy as well.
But I have a really safe payment option from my bank and I did really make a order on two of these. Most to see if it comes and if it comes to see what it really is. I can spend that 1.5$ to have a look.
I have ordered this as well:

X Play Custom backplate?

I bought my X from carphone warehouse so its just a standard back cover version. The moto maker website only shows a clam shell case available. Any ideas where its possibly to by different backplates for it?
Sent from my XT1562 using Tapatalk

The thread at the top of the list http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-play/accessories/cover-t3186799 (before you made your post)
has all the information you need. Just wondering if you read through that because the information is already there without this post.

I probably should have clarified that id like to know if there is an option available in the UK. I hate ordering from China for the simple fact I am impatient with the delivery times on there.
I was after a more official item but thanks for pointing the other thread out.
Re-reading that thread I know another reason I didn't bother. They don't fit properly not like the original. But there is a post saying Motorola confirmed they have no plans to sell the backs separately. Shame.

Anyone know where to score the band adapter in the US?

Looking for US based retailer.
Any info greatly appreciated, and TIA!

If you scroll down you will find threads where they are only in Germany or you can get non-samsung ones from ebay or Amazon. I think they are all the same (own vs Chinese ones)

My bad... Thought I'd posted in accessories thread. I'm aware that they can be ordered from Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, etc, but I'm looking for a US based retailer.

Ordered mine through Amazon for $7.95. Took two weeks. Came from China. Works fine. Able to use my NATO straps now.

But the Chinese adapters on ebay & Amazon don't have the correct and matching colors. For me, that's a deal breaker.

There's still nowhere in the US to get these. Samsung has really messed this one up.
