krussel m600 classic? - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

http://www.eliteelectronics.co.uk/SPV_M600_Krusell_Case.html
look for the classic one.
im considering getting one - the one i had for my c500 did me great, but just wondering if anyone has come across any reviews and if there are issues with the touchscreen or not with it? ive searched high and low and cant find much info on it, thats my only concern - a good price too.

Hi,i have the two first case for my spv m600,I use the first for the week-end and the second for the work.I've a protected screen too and i've no problem to use the tactile screen.I've bought all my accessories for my phone here :http://www.kabiloo.fr/___nos_accessoires_pour_spv_m600.html

Just my opinions
I found the Classic case too restrictive on the touch screen so as i have a screen protector on the phone anyway i just cut the clear vinyl that coveres the screen off and got on with it much better.
1 thing i did notice was that the prestud on the rear of the case did pop open a little too easy when it was clicked on my belt and came loose too often.
I since bought one of these from ebay and it's the best ive used
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Crystal-Plast...ryZ48677QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I've removed the flip screen just cause i prefer not to have it on but it was pretty good with it
Ive also ordered a silicon case (with a belt clip) from ebay too and i'll post here what i think when it arrives
hope it helps

well, ive gone ahead and ordered it now! just hope it does as good a job as my old one did on my c500 - it looked immaculate after 18 months of hard use, and the odd drop (im a little clumsy!)
provided i can use the touchscreen through the cover, im happy!

DAMN!!!, UNIVERSAL BROKEN!!!

I am so upset, i just got my universal on saturday, i have been enjoying it but i could not use it as a phone because i needed to unlock it. I had the damn thing in my pocket and was on a phone call on my other phone in the car, in my front pocket, not back. Got out of the car, walked into the hall and opened it and there it was, A BIG UGLY black gash on the screen, the screen cracked, it just in my pocket!!, closed too! Where can i get this fixed, i am in the states and the phone is not sold here so i don't know here to get it fixed. Please, the LCD liquid has made a dark smere across the left side, i need help, please. Also what is the best case to get, so this does not happen again?
Check Pocket PC Techs. They will replace the screen for you.
how?
Please how do i get to them?
ok
ok, thanks, thats really expensive, ok, what is best case to use for this device?
Broken screen resolution
Ok thank God i don't have to pay over $250 to get my screen fixed. T-mobile Uk agreed to replace it since it was gotten through them. The way this still happened baffels me. I have had my MDA3 for over 6 months and it has fallen about 4 times, and stuff and it still works fine, but the exec screen broke while in my pocket. Strange. My question is that, for people who have an exec, do you leave it in laptop mode or tablet mode most of the time, and have u had to replace yours or do a repair?
Broke my Wizard to, im so damn worried about my universal. Don't got the money over to fix that screen if it's gettin broke, have had almost all pda phones you can get in .se and never cracked any screen but damn qtek ive done it on
I use a krusell case but not because it is the best but because it was the only one available on hand. It cost 29€ here in spain.
Also, I never leave it in tablet mode in my pocket. Always in Laptop mode.
It's only in tablet mode while it's on my desk.
Purchase a metal case. You can keep it in PDA mode and view the screen while inside the case. It also has a belt clip
UD.
Thanks
I pray the second one does not break when it arrives, it is too expensive to fix these things. Can you post a link to the case? i have looked at most of the cases on here, i think i will go with the one for the T-mobile side kick 2, it is cheaper and looks ok. I just need something with a strong belt hook and is well paded, so if it is on my hip and something actually presses on it this time, it will not break.
I must admit , I feel my Unirversal is more vunerable than any other device I have ever owned - can't quit put my finger on why , but I feel as if it wouldn't survive being dropped as well as myXDA, XDAII , s100 , or wizard for that matter !
The XDA / XDAII came with a nice case vertical flip case with a metal plate in the flap - which would be ideal in my eyes , but I have only seen one like that on Ebay for the exec (Via hong kong! ) and I suspect the one you actaully receive may be different (horizontal )
here is the krusell case link:

and here is a metal case link:
http://www.proporta.com/F02/PPF02P05.php?t_id=1355&t_mode=des
hope this helps
I had an XDA 3 and used a metal case. BIG ERROR!
one day the belt clip connector of the case broke and the device fell down, cracking the screen.
For my Mda Pro I ordered one Piel Frama case, which has not only a belt clip but also a fixed belt latch (you can take of original clip and then below) which should not break.
Also this case protects the device from all sides and seems to be thick enough to give it good protection in case of falls.

Replies, thank you all for your reply, i think i will go with a leather case, the metal ones are not attractive. The funny thing is that i just sent the phone back today, now it is gone, and as i got home, i got the unlock code from t-mobile UK!!!. DAMN!! I think i just have a bad luck week.
You can get cheap leather case with all sort of design off Ebay. I got mine from there and the quality is not bad at all
Piel Frama does NOT have a belt clip.

check the link, I posted. I speak about a different Pielframe case. And this one HAS A BELT CLIP.
@BlackICE,
My bad! Thank for you for the correction. I thought you were referring to the standard case.

Just as an observation, the reason the screen would crack in your pocket would be something sharp hitting it? Could this not be easily solved by always making sure that the side of the HTC with the screen on it always faces towards your leg and not towards the outside? Sounds like an easier option than buying a metal case anyway :?
i usually keep my xda exec in my front pocket ... i'm not really a fan of cases esp. for the htc universals .... somewhat tacky ...
HTC
I had 15 cents in my pocket when it happened but i doubt that had anything to do with, it may have but with the way the coins were, i don't think so. I think maybe cause my knees bent, it stretched my trousers and that caused it (can't stop thinking about that day, ::sob::sob:.
With my MDA3, i always used the case that came with it, i like that, cause the case only holds the device. Thanks for your advice, :wink: i just ordered that ALU-Leather yesterday, but i am thinking it will be uncomfortable answering the phone with that leather all around it. I will see how it works out when it gets here but protection is number one now, i can't keep shipping it back to the UK. To people with cases that house the unit, do you answer the phone with the leather all around the unit or u use bluetooth, or you take it out of the case?

Cases for the Wizard

I am in the market for a case for my k-jam does anyone have an aluminium case it looks from the sites that the front is totally clear is this a type of plastic or is it just open, if its plastic this seems perfect for what i want, i hate screen protectors but dont want my greesy ear marks on the actual device screen
Anyone confirm this for me
Thanks

Hi,
I've ordered a aluminium case from PDAir. The front contains a plastic window so your tft screen is safe. Alle buttons can be used normally while the wizard is in the case. Have a look at:
http://www.pdair.com/scripts/main/viewitem_v2.php?itemid=2196&pdaid=194
to find more information. And by the way shipping is for free.
Nico[/url]
Once you recieve it can you please let us know how much it adds to the length, width and height of the wizard?
hey,
i've had this for the last coupla weeks and let me tell you... it's a lifesaver!
i have dropped my precious kjam only once while it was in the case (on marble, too!) and it was saved.
if you love yours, get one of these. i don't trust a leather case as much.
ciao!
hey bartgomes and is it possible to keep carrying wizard in your pocket? i keep mine there and dont use this horizontal case that comes with it. I mean does it really increase size so it becomes uncomfortable?
regards
i also have one of the pdair aluminium cases and can highly recommend.
when in the case the dimensions are L-111mm,W-65mm and D-29mm.
it gives you access to all the buttons(except top 2 soft keys;IE and mail on mini s),sd card slot,stylus,usb port,headphones and the camera lens has a cut out.
its looks very smart and fits in your pocket a lot better than "the old ladies purse" that it comes with.
:lol:
got mine off ebay last week from hong kong took about a week to arrive only £13.69. bargain worth every penny.
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/IN-Technology-Co
this is his shop but i cant see any more listed at the moment.
Try this ebay shop for Pdair cases for K-JAM
http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pda-Gear
and do a search for K-JAM .. at least they are UK based??

Brando so thick?

Hi there,
finally I got myself a Brando screenprotector after everyone that you read is very positive about it, but i xperience that it makes the screen much more insensetive, i almost have to hold the screen all the time when i tab the screen. before it was much more sensible...are there different brando models, and i got the one that is superthick?
I know there are two kind of screenprotectors by Brando (in my preferite shop in Rome i have seen two of these), one of these is more slim
I think you have the other model and me too
Because also for me the display, wuth the screenprotector, is more insensitive
:wink:
HI, Ive used these protectors for years now and havent found them a problem. It's true that you need to be a little more 'positive' on teh screen after they are applied.
However compare this to one day scratching or damagaing your very expensive screen and turning your Universal into a door stop!
There are two types... Ultra clear shiny style (which i use at the moment) and a anti glare version (which is better for outdoors sometimes as less reflections)..... Also the difference is that they dont stick to the screen, they simply stay there with the tack of the backing, thus you dont damage the screen when you try to remove them.
where in Rome?. I'm going to visit Rome in 3 weeks and I might pass by there
It's an Exec. The lid will close. Why do you need a screen protector? FWIW my 30-month old XDA2 has 3 very minor scratches on the screen that you can't see unless you look *very* carefully. The way I achieved such longevity was simply to not put the device in the same pocket as anything metal (e.g. keys, money) - seemed kinda obvious to me. :roll:

Cingular 8525 housing availablity?

Hi I have a Cingular 8525 and as usual due to my clumsiness I have drop it twice on the cement. Everything's working fine but being a person with a mild case of obsessive compulsive behavior I am buggin......
Also if you guys are looking for a case for your Hermes you should try to avoid this style. My 8525 was securely in this case and the phone 'flew' out of it when it was knocked on the front side of the case. The phone flew out knocking the battery boor, battery, and the sim right out of the phone. Not good! Also, the case uses a magnet for the flap closure so it goes without saying it is sending my phone into periodic landscape mode whenever I remove the phone from the case.
I have tried ebay for a replacement case and unlike all my other phone nothing is available and I mean nothing. Not even one cheesy knock off is on there for this phone.
Has anyone here looked into getting an OEM housing for the 8525?
Personally I would prefer to keep the phone in a 8525 case versus changing it out for other verients.
Sorry for the long post.....I'm sick in bed with a 103 fever so I figure that I would bug u guys
Thanks.

Looking for same for TyTN
I need a tytn oem case as well. I dropped and scratched mine. Irony of it is, I've had it for two months, purchased invisible skin two days before I dropped it - idn't get a chance to put it on before i dropped it!
Oh and mine was in a metal case. It rell out of that! So nothing's safe. Gotta put on invi skin!
try this
checkout this site. it has pretty much everything that is available.
you might want to invest in the hard metal case : )

Did you happen to adjust the hinge(simply by bending it inward slightly) before placing your Hermes inside. I have an aluminum case, and I've test dropped it, and nothing happened.
***Please not from the factory, the hinge merely "clips" over/on the other side of the aluminum housing. If you want to make it more stable you have to slightly bend the "lip" that connects to the lower portion of the housing. YMMV. I had to readjust mine once as the first time I had it way too tight, and it was very hard to get my Hermes out of the case. Now it simply closes with an authoritative click, and I know my Hermes is secure.
Anybody find a place to get the housing for an 8525 yet? There is a large (its not that large, but its visible enough to be annoying) gash on the metal bezel running along 3 of the 4 sides of the display of my 8525
im new to the forums, but my 8525 got knocked out of my hand and got pretty messed up. my "t" key has also started to lift off of the pad. i wanted to know if this has happened to anybody and if there is any replacement keyboards for sale also. can i swithc over to the tytn with the proper front keyboard? any help would be amazing.
i just bought a dummy 8525 off of ebay, Im not sure how they are made, but I am going to see if I can switch the housing
please let me know how it works, i was thinking of doing the same thing...

The dummy thing did not work, it isnt an actual housing, only the front buttons work, the rest are fake and do not move, there isnt even a real battery cover, its one piece. That was a waste of $10.99
still really desperate to get a new housing, anyone know where one is available?

Well let me add that I am not the seller. so don't ask me any questions, but this is a seller I have bought housing for my imate jam before...
hrm, sorry about bring up an old thread, but I thought it would be easier than starting a whole new one.
I'm purchasing a used dopod 838 pro sometime this week, and was looking to get a replacement housing for it as it is fairly abused. Would something like the above posted (HTC 8525 case) work well? I notice that, that case doesnt have a powerbutton on the front of the case, will this cause a problem when I go to replace the housing?

There you go guys.. I dropped my phone before christmas, and broke the latch that holds the battery door on, and I had to use some tape for awhile. I must have ordered one of the last Cingular 8525 cases, since all they have is the HTC Hermes black cases with the front camera hole.
That shouldnt be too big of deal to you guys though looking for new cases. It took about a week and a half to get here (FL, USA) from Hong Kong at Christmas time. Very good site..

55 bucks and your back in business
I am having the same problem sourcing the correct housing for my phone. I am from the UK and have searched high and low to find a housing for the UK equivalent the SPV M3100 (HERM100 - so the label says).
I have checked all the sites mentioned above, at cnn.cn they dont have the correct housing as the front buttons are different? and the cingular housing is 1: not a nice colour! and 2:L i dont know if this includes the mid plate as well.
Does anyone know where i can get hold of the correct housing(not silver) i dont mind the branding.

Personal "issue" regarding PDAir Aluminium Case and T-Mobile Vario IV

Thought id make a post to let anyone thinking of getting a PDair aluminium case for the Vario IV (UK) know about my experience with it.
I Recieved my vario just over a week ago and untill this morning i have kept it completely unblemished.
My black aluminium case arrived through the post this morning and upon inspection seemed to be just what i was looking for. the neoprene within the lower part of the case seemed to hold the phone snugly and the catch was firm, ensuring the case wouldnt open accidently and drop my phone. the one thing i did notice was the lack of neoprene on the upper part of the case (read lid), but after looking at a few pictures on the web and vids on youtube i noticed that this was standard on the case and not an error with mine personally.
So i continued to use it sucessfully, flipping the case open to slide the screen and use my keyboard, untill this evening after about 8 hrs of usage i noticed three deep scratches froming on the side of the screen part of the phone near the volume buttons. however on the lower part of the screen part of the phone, above the usb port a particularly nasty scratch has formed measuring 2cm in length. needless to say I am not happy, as the case i bought to protect my phone has caused this much damage.
I have emailed the supplier, hopefully it may be a fault with my case and that a replacement may work fine, but eitherway i felt it was worthwile reporting this to the community incase it saves someone else from getting their phone wrecked.
BTW anyone know of a way of polishing out the scratches i now have?
the only way i know of is to use an extremely high grit sandpaper or use a buffer.
I also got the PDAir Case and mine has got neoprene in the lid as well! I use it for 2 weeks now and no scratches on my phone.
But I have to admit that I don't use the clip provided with the case but carry it arround in this case: HTC Pouch Case
where did you get your aluminium case? i checked the pdair website and it states the tmobile vario IV case as "coming soon".
As an update, after i fired off a rude email to the store i bought the case from they said that the case i recieved was the wrong one and that the one for the tmobile vario IV isnt out yet, so i sent it back to them and recieved a full refund, which would be fine except the scratches i now have as a momento of that shop.
Think ill buy the case directly from pdair in the states and get it shipped over when they are out, save on alot of trouble
I got mine from ebay. But there are several other shops selling "PDAir" Cases that all look some different... Maybe mine is a fake - a good one ;-)
