Hey guys! I know there are a lot of threads about cases and extended battery's but I was looking into getting a two for one deal! I seen this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00CJ...tiveASIN=B00CJOKBQI&linkCode=xm2&tag=carev-20 on Amazon but some reviews are good and some are bad. If anyone that has this case, a case similar, or know of a case like this one. please chime in and let me know what you think. Looking to still have the flip cover with the Window in it but will settle with just the flip cover.

anyone know if there is a sleeve that fits this phone a little better than the one from my nexus?
I ordered one from amazon... I can't remember but it was made from kangaroo...wish I could be more helpful. Oh it was about 10.99 total.

I order my sleeves hand-made on Etsy. Just search for 'iphone sleeves' and when u find one you like, email the seller and ask if they would make one for your phone dimensions. Personally, I like the work of YanaK and I recommend you search for her on Etsy, her sleeves are really nice and she is quick to make your sleeve for you.

Yup.. just ordered one of those the other day. It's coming from Hong Kong but free shipping so not bad. Seller has a high rating so we'll see how this works out.
Hope yah know it doesnt fit inside the Nexus One pouch I just checked
I've been using the pouch from my G1. The G2x doesn't go but just to the edge of the pouch, which works for me.
-bZj
G2x in effect....
Has anyone here used this case?. I am thinking about buying it, as I would like a kickstand on my phone as I watch quite a few movies on there. Does anyone know how well it fits a fascinate? If anyone has used it do they have a review of it?
Yes I bought one its a great case just when I first got it the kickstand is a little hard to unclip but besides that its good.

Amazon? They're trustworthy. It'd be easier and cheaper. They have free 7 day shipping or something... Depending on your order.
Yeah man go with amazon. I just ordered some new earphones (same as stock ones) for like four bucks. I bet there's a usb cable for around that price if not lower. And they're trustworthy.

Search on ebay for the i9000 battery door. They'll have it in black or white. As far as I know, the battery door for the i9000 is the same as the Galaxy S 4g (and the Vibrant). ^_^

It even has Google on it!

You should've filed a claim for that on Ebay. Anyways, not the place to talk about that, so I won't linger on that point, lol.
As for you battery door, you could try to paint it yourself. Look for a bottle of Tamiya Pearl White spray paint. It's not cheap compared to what you can get locally, but it looks pretty damn good! You might need to prime the cover too. Be sure to topcoat as well, or else the paint will just chip off!
Holy moly. 20 dollars ?!?!

You could see if hobby stores have them. Do a quick google search. I'll write more about it when I'm home, since it's kinda inconvenient to search on my phone and type a response, lol.
I only suggest Tamiya because I build plastic robot models for a hobby. It's a well known brand of paint and is safe on plastic. If you could find another cheaper brand, by all means, use that one. I'm sure that any quality paint will be great, as long as it's applied with the proper technique.
I think the cans itself aren't expensive ($4-5), but it's the shipping that kills (Tamiya is a Japanese brand).
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Oh wow, turns out Amazon has it!
http://www.amazon.com/PS-57-Pearl-White-100ml-Spray/dp/B002O4BR2U
For how to use it, you should YouTube videos on how to spray properly. In a nutshell, just spray in short little bursts and keep coats light. If you just spray too much, the paint will accumulate and you'll just get a big mess. In the event you do mess up, you can fix it up either by (1)soaking it in thinner to remove the paint or (2)use sandpaper to sand off the paint.
Let me know if you have any more questions in regards to painting(through PM or whatever).
Good luck!

the shipping killed my order
I was really close to buying one but the $8 shipping killed it for me. For $30 there has to be a better solution. Also didn't help their sale was the fact that I already have a great case (ballistic) and have a 2A (max) usb car adapter.

well $27.94 to be exact =) i'll admit it did take it from an awesome deal to a really realy great deal. i had looked at these in the tmobile store and they were asking 59.99 i believe. At first i decided against the extra bulk and weight of it. The blaze is a small and light phone, and this case pretty much makes it not a "small and light phone" lol. 8mm thickness doesnt sound like much, but in reality it doubles the phone thickness and weight.
peronally, with the gorilla glass on the phones these days and the phone insurance from tmobile, i usually dont bother with cases, escpecially when they tend not to even include a belt clip or kickstand, but with the power outages from hurricane sandy recently, i had a change of opinion. for 27 dollars, even if i dont use it on my phone regularly, its akin to any other emergency supply one might want to have available in their household in case of emergencies.
just my somewhat hands-on review and my associated humble opinion of the product.
I just got one of these for my blaze, now i can go a full day without charging it! i did notice though that it gets kind of hot when charging the phone off of the powerskin.
Just ordered mine on Ebay. Does anyone know if you have to charge the stock battery separately, or you just plug it in and it charges both?
Thanks.

This phone doesn't have gorilla glass and is prone to scratching. A few posters here have been unfortunate to have put scratches on their phones.
Investing in a good case and screen protector is something I would recommend. If you have this case all you would need is a good screen protector.

For the people who already have this, what are your thoughts on the quality? I don't know if mine is a deffect but it takes forever to charge and only adds about 40% of battery life.

It was good during the hurricane as a backup. For $20 quality is OK. If I paid more I would have returned it. Its a rubber case that fits over the top and shifts around. I thought it would have been a hard case or shell

Just placed an order. If it goes thru, $5 isn't that bad of a price to pay.....
I need some pics of the zl 7500 battery installed in the s4. If someone could take a pic of the phone laying battery side up with the back cover off I'd greatly appreciate it. Need to see what it looks like installed. Wanna see if I might be able to make a wireless charging receiver work with that battery and a zl rugged case. I have a pretty go idea how I could do it. Just need a good pic to help me before I order the battery and case. Many thanks to anyone that can help.
Just do a Google search, http://www.google.com/search?q=zero...aw2gX4lYDgCQ&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAA&biw=360&bih=567#
I've seen 1 photo that looks like it could be possible. Was hoping for a little more detail.
