Google Nexus One Vaja Ivolution Cases

Hi, All
I was wondering if anybody would be interested in a Custom Vaja Ivolution Case for the Nexus One.
For anybody that hasn't heard of them, they are suppose to be the Prada of mobile phone cases. They mainly make cases for the Iphone.
I want to get one, but they still only make a Pouch.
I have put in a request on the Vaja website & would appreciate if anybody else who is interested in one please put in a request. The link to the website is below.
http://www.vajacases.com/
The more the merrier.
Also they have just released one for the HD2
Thanks
JAW$

Done.
I love Vaja cases. I had one for my Palm TX a few years ago and it was amazing quality. It's spendy, but it's worth it.

If you own a Nexus One & want a Vaja Ivolution Case, please contact Vaja & give them your suggestion.
The more people ask for this, the more likely they will make it.

Those are some cool looking cases, but I worry about the N1 version they show on their site. The bottom corners are not protected at all. Even if the phone is in the case and you drop it, you could still end up with gnarly looking corners after just one drop onto some concrete. They need to come out with ones like I saw for the iPhone and Palm that fully protect the whole phone.

From what I can see there is already one under Products - Phone - Google - Nexus one. Or are you looking for something else?

Exactly, that's what I'm saying. I mentioned Ivolution case not the Pouch they currently make.
If you want a Nexus One Ivolution please contact Vaja!

I'm looking for the Ivolution case that they mainly make for the Iphone. They have just made one for the HD2 & don't think they will say no to making one for Nexus One, as long as allot of people request it.
They do currently make a Nexus One Pouch but that no to my likening.
Vaja Ivolution cases are resound through out the world for being the best cases.

Awesome cases by Vaja...I'll put in a N1 request to them!

The style & quality is no where near as good as Vaja

Been a long time Vaja fan ever since the PDA ages where I had a Sony Clie N70. I still actually have that case and works and fits like a glove. I have since gone down the ivolution line with a lot of Sony Ericsson products and when I saw this pouch I got excited for a minute but noticed that it wasn't really a case. I would def pay top dollar for a nice case if one was made for my N1.
The Argentinian leather is absolutely top notch. In my opinion, the best leather you can buy out there.

Thanks man

need to change design..
I'm eager to get vaja case for N1 and already sent email to them long time ago.
but I can't understand why they made as like this design.
To compare with HD2 and iPhone, they have flip cover!
that's more comfortable and useful.
I hope they're reconsidering about this design. I know that N1's market share is too small, but they're enthusiast and will pay for good case.

Carbon Fiber Nexus

So i got this idea from one guy who put the 3M carbon fiber skin on EVO, But the problem was the curvy shape of my beloved Nexus. So I tried a few things and wasted some Vinyl but finally i bought Best skins ever skin for $8 and used it as a stencil and cut out the vinyl with my xacto. here are the pics. I liked it a lot so i thought i'll share with you guys.

That.....Looks.....AMAZING! Do tell....

Wanna give me the skin you didn't use? ;-)

looks really cool ive been looking for a carbon fiber cover

Agreed, you've 'riced' up your phone.

i dont think its any more ricing up than putting on a case. isn't ricing up to give it some sort of performance enhancement that doesn't really enhance anything?

Well I know why some of you don't like it. as my wife does not like it too she also has a nexus and she likes the feel of 'naked phone' if i may say .
My only problem with cases is that if i use them then my desk-dock becomes useless. plus i dont like always to be super careful about keeping my phone anywhere and scratch it.

you know what, it looks pretty good but the only problem is the weave is too large. maybe get a smaller weave vinyl.
care to share the stencil?

Sell me your desk dock.. Please please please please!!

FYI you guys can get overstock Carbon fiber sheets and m3 adhesive strips like used above from a guy named racingjeff on ebay. What this stuff is microthin carbonfiber with m3 adhesive on the back. They use it to make the CF dash boards in teh bling bling honda's you see on the road. I've deal with Jeff for years buying real overstock 3mm CF sheets. Guys a really good guy.

Personally I don't think it looks bad at all. I wouldn't do an entire phone in carbon fiber but it looks nice enough to me.
I'm going to cover my HD2 battery door using the same carbon fiber sheet. I'm also considering buying a couple of battery doors from ebay and experiment a little. I want to polish one battery door to a "mirrior finish" and I want to try painting one using Krylon just to see how it will come out.
I've painted all sorts of crap like Blackberry housings, golf clubs, furniture and I have the technique and prep work down to a science so we'll see how it goes and I'll make sure to post pics when complete.
I applaud dude for having the balls to experiment!

/10chars

I like it but the CF grids are a little large. I would like a tighter patterns. Heres the guy I use. Granted its not going to be $8 because its real CF.
http://shop.ebay.com/racingjeff/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25
Email him and tell him what your planning to do, he's super cool and will send out samples and all his stuff is the real deal, not look alike CF.

Is there a ay you help me out, on how to make the vinyl go so nicely around the corners? specially on the curvy parts... ive tried b4 with other vinals, and i cant get it to go nice on the curves, i always get extra stuff

2) Good lookin out on this ebay seller!!!! I'm going thru his selection and there are SO MANY TO CHOOSE! I definitely prefer solid colors over the argyle and swirl ones all over the internet and amazon. I want a clear one... but may settle for this black one. Thanks again!

1. I did live in Virginia for a short time but I never introduce myself as Moshe. So I doubt it was me bro.

I think I found some of these on amazon if you search for "lg tmobile g2x color premium". The link doesn't say "TPU" but when you click the link it says they're TPU cases in the description and they look just like the ones on ebay.

I bought my GF one of those TPU cases for her HTC Aria in white and the thing is awesome. It adds a little girth to the phone phone nothing major. She drops the thing all the time but the phone still looks amazing.
The bad thing is that it covers up the smooth rounded screen that I love to feel.

I got this exact same case. I loved it except for the holes cut out for the volume and power. That killed it for me because that little slim piece in the front just got kinda floppy. I ordered this one and although I dont like transparent or argyle cases I use it day to day just because it seems to fit better http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0QEA3EPHD3SFD6BV11WG

Got the exact same case on my way to me. I ordered the lime green last week, gonna have an android theme. I will probably add some artwork to make mt g2x look like an android bot,

I got the black version of this case last week and after trying 2 other cases, this one is the best hands down.
I got mine off ebay from Mr.Shim and it took 6 days to get here from Korea.
Now if only Realook had a screen protector for this phone, I'd be really happy.
The only thing this case did was push up the Bodyguardz screen protector when I put it on because it's a pretty snug fit. Simply smoothing it back down was all I needed to do. Probably didnt help that I just had the protector put on the night before either.

It fits real tight kinda hard to take it off when you need to

My skyrocket wants to stand up! Kickstand or dock solutions?

My friend just got a Galaxy SII 4G and has this great white case with a kickstand (you all know the brand, but I cant remember it...). The same case is one of the few I have found available for the Skyrocket and it's exactly the same, except it has no kickstand?! Which is the MAIN feature I need!
Surely there is an option out there? Some way to get a kickstand on the skyrocket? I love to watch Netflix in bed and use it as my main bedside clock/alarm But I have to stick it in the stand that came with my Novel tablet so it will stand up!
Please help! Whats the best solution? I really dont care if it charges the phone... I just need a stand and want it permanently attached if possible.
Thanks all!

Like I posted in the other section, the Seideo Active case has a kickstand. A similar version is sold at most BestBuys and can be bought on Ebay or Amazon as well. There are several reviews on that case already in the Accessories section.

Take a look at this case. You can use the belt clip as a stand. Hella great case as well.

That is a SLICK case indeed! I currently have the otterbox commuter It is a little big for my taste... The defender looks even bigger, but better! However, I would just lose the clip. I need something that stays attached. That case is SOO slick I just might get one anyway tho

That case looks like it keeps the phone vertical on the stand. The Seidio Active case has the phone horizontal which I think is better for video viewing. The active case is also well constructed. It adds slight bulk to the phone, but not too much. It also adds "grip" to the phone which is nice in a way but can make it difficult to put in in or out of your pocket or a carrying case.

I wouldn't mind the 2 weeks shipping as long as the case is worth it. I love the design but don't want to risk it. I might just get the spigen neo hybrid instead if nobody has any info about the brand or case.

Do a quick search and you would find that this is a quality case brand. They made cases for the s3 and iphone as well.
Most korean cases have really good quality even mercury which is the budget korean case option.
I will be getting one of these soon (red/black) version. If you don't mind waiting 2-4 weeks for me to come back with a review... hang on tight.

Lol I dont think I can wait that long for a review but thank u. U def boosted my confidence. I might just take the leap n get it. I love the red n black one as well. Appreciate it!

i want one of these cases too. i'm afraid by the time it arrives, the galaxy s5 will be out.
by the way, they're available at casefanatic also:

Korean Post is usually fantastic in their delivery speeds.
Anyway, S5 won't be out so soon, not since they announced plans for at "S4s" with the S800 processor.

I did a quick search on araree but couldnt find too many reviews, in english at least.. I do see that they made cases for the galaxy and iphone series in the past but I dont know if that can be used as a testimate to the quality of the galaxy s4 cases.

Thanks !!

Hello, I'm interested in the Amy case, but because of the inconvenience of having it shipped from Korea I would like to see some more pictures of it before buying, if possible of the Moulin Rouge and Chic Black versions. Thanks.

Finally gave in and ordered one of these for my girlfriend and myself last week. I guess I will find out who nice they are once they arrive. They shipped out about a week ago but it says it could take up till the beginning of September to arrive unfortunately.

Anyine fond of the tech 22 d30 cases?

Hope you can post some impressions and pictures! I'm interested in buying this case off eBay, but I am curious on what it feels like before committing.

I've had one for about 3 weeks now and have absolutely loved it.

What does it feel like in the hand? Is it like a matte soft touch finish? Does the case add much thickness to the device?

just bit and purchased the red/black one for 47$ on ebay via EMS shipping, link here for those interested ($31 total for free shipping). I should have it by next Weds. This is probably the prettiest case I've seen for the s4.

a tad bit of thickness. But nothing like a commuter or anything from otterbox. It's still pretty thin. The back plastic piece had a pretty smooth feel to it, but still provides a nice grip. the rubber main piece (As I call it) has more of a matte feel to it if you will imo. Provides good grip. Still waiting to be able to get pics sowy. Should have them in the morning.

So my cases showed up yesterday. Took 10 days from when they were updated saying shipped on ebay. The quality is excellent as stated earlier. My one question will be depending on how the back plastic is colored how well will it hold up to scratches. Almost feels like a painted on finish instead of a piece of plastic that is died all the way through. Thickness wise it is a hair thicker than my Spigen Neo Hybrid case. I took a ton of pictures of my girlfriends pink and teal one and my red and white one. I just need to get them posted up.
