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.

@universaldoc
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?
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??

I have just bought one of these, and they come with a free screen protector.
All for just under £14.
Sweet.
Since this is so new, it seems there are not many cases out there yet. The really neat ones are for the 8525, suppliers like: Krusell,seidio,beyza are not up to speed yet, or Am I wrong? Any one have any ideas on when there maybe releases?
I honestly love the one that came with the Kaiser. However, I heard that cases with magnetic flaps cause the Kaiser to automatically turn on since there is a magnetic connection to the slider keyboard. I'm not too familiar with this issue, but did read this somewhere.
I don't love the sideways case with velcro and non-springloaded belt hook, currently using a leather magnet flap case for a generic flip. Mine does not turn the phone On, depends on where the magnets are located as ones that are close to the keyboard's "open sensor" can turn the phone On. I'm rooting for Pocket Solutions to make one.
I'm watching the "Kaiser Accessories" area for the mose current info... as should you.
I put my Kaiser on my jeans' pocket with no cases (except screen protector).

You`re braver than me
Well, it should be fine inside the pocket, and the jeans is thick enough to protect the Kaiser and soft enough to not scratch the surface.
The only downside is dirt inside the pocket, but like I said, I always wipe it out clean (usually in the screen area). It will be the same in the case, screen get dirt.
My wife quite jealous the way I treat my Kaiser Because I will wipe clean the table, take a clean paper or tissue and put it like a carpet before I put my Kaiser ...

Krussel will release the ORBIT case for the TyTN II during October.
PDAir have just released a couple of Kaiser cases, and there are a few similar cases on eBay. Piel Frama have told me they'll have one in the next month or so.
4ustuff is a Hong-Kong based wholesaler that has a lot of Kaiser stuff, some of which may make its way into the retail channel.
on the Pocket Solutions website they're offering a fullbody "SkinGuardz" for the Tytn II...only problem is it's not in stock...i prefer a solution like this vs. a case (although one drop on the ground might force me to change my mind).
I used a slightly altered PDAir case for the Hermes (i cut all the clear plastic off over the keyboard and used Velcro to attach the phone to the case - worked really well. But with the Kaiser I`m leaning more toward the pouch type case, or perhaps a thin silicone case, but Ive not seen one of those yet.
Just Wireless Case
I bought a case at Staples yesterday from a company called Just Wireless. It is for a Blackberry/ Treo 750, but the TyTN II fit's in it perfectly. It is a holster type and it has a slim belt clip. You can probably find them at Walmart, Target, and others like that as the case retails for about $18.00. (picture taken with my TyTN II attached)
It may not be the best case, but it does the job for someone like me who is on traveling all the time and needs quick access.

Another option is this camera case -- I picked one up at my local Fry's a couple weeks back for $6.99. I see they've lowered the online price to below $5 -- that's going to be hard to beat.
i am a huge fan of gizmoskin.com if you read reviews on the cases you will see they use a very high grade leather. looks amazing and holds up like a champ. i have not seen their equal except for very very expensive designer cases. have been using their cases for he last 3 years
i asked them about a kaiser case and they said thy would look into it. if you want a nice case shoot them an email and say your interested.
I would love this one! (Cause I'm paranoid and had a Metal one for my Wizard...) but I can't seem to find anyone that carries them...

How is the case that comes with the Kaiser
I hope the one that comes with the Tilt is the same
As far as free cases go the one that comes with the Kaiser is excellent, very soft. I am waiting on a holster because I don't like taking the phone out the case while driving.
I use the holster I had for my old 8525. It fits my new TyTN ll perfectly.

In my opinion Krusell make quality cases which are practical. I bought one for my Vaio I. recently the clip broke, due to rushing through a doorway and having the phone yanked off the clip.
Krusell said send it back with proof of purchase and they will replace beacuse it comes with A LIFETIME gurantee.

Just turned in my Diamond for a Pro and have ordered a Krusell leather belt clip case for it. Had one on my Diamond and it was very good. Another is the Noreve cases. Both very good quality. Prefer a case to a skin.

both have the product. Let me know how well it works, I really want to get one.
($24USD from wirelessground)
Careful!!!!!
Guys, be careful with those flip leather bags!
I'm having really bad experience with this one. It has a sheet of protective foil (0.5 mm thick) over the keyboard, so when the screen is closed, this foil is pushing the screen away from the keyboard.
One week of using this crap bag and now I can actually pull the screen away from the keyboard 1mm or so (left side in closed position). And when I shake the closed phone holding the keyboard, i can see and hear the screen flapping.
Apparently the hinges are not stable enough to resist any objects between them. I don't see a way of tightening them up myself. (Although I'm pretty do-it-myself guy, don't feel like taking this thing apart without instructions).
So I'm just getting myself an aluminium case, at least it won't get worse, 'cause the screen and keyboard are allways fixed against each other.
And I strongly recommend you consider whether you want to ruin an expensive unit with a cheap bag.
I add this one. It's a high quality leather case.
A little bit expansive but i'm so glad to have it, it's really good.
I really want this case, but does anyone know of a side case that exposes the miniusb, so I can plug in my headphones

Agreed, I personaly refused to use that type of case after seeing another touch pro flapping after it got taken out its case. Mines thankfully has never been in such case and is still like new. Avoid may well be the best advise. However it does limit what you can pick though. I use the HTC sleve, and then put that in my mini s belt case. A bit bulky, but until a good solution comes about, it'll have to do.
I too use the sleeve that comes with it but my problem is when I keep it in my pocket , sometimes when I receive a call , it answers on its own , very irritating

hey, i'm lookin for a leather pouch type case w/ no belt clip like the one that comes with the european version of the touch pro. I would really like to have the soft cloth inside to clean the screen as well, any suggestions?
i have the sprint touch pro
any leather belt clips that are confirmed to work with the hd2, tmo version? Im sure for a leather belt clip it will fit both, but i have yet to find one that is made for the hd2. the previous htc version for the TP2 is too thick and not wide enough for it to fit.
any suggestions?
well i bought one for 19.99 from best buy buy the name rocketfish and it fit the phone perfectly and so far the best one i have found as of now
cool. ill check it out
I was at my local Best Buy yesterday and they had nothing that met my standards. They did have a HTC Branded horizontal belt pouch that it fit great for the size, however the pouch itself was 3 times thinker then needed. I am picky with my pouches and belt clips for my phones. I do have my Invisible shield and a few Silicon sleeves coming soon so I may try some over pouches out when I get my new stuff.
tmobile stores have a generic one for the g1 & sidekick that works pretty well.

HTC D2 carrying cases
I found two leather carrying case for HTC D2 wirelessemporium.com has one it called premium horizontal black leather carrying case for htc Hd2 Item# LOC-HTC-OHD2-01 free shipping price 15.29 and I found a outdoor style carrying case HTC HD2 from cellphoneshop.com with shipping and handling 9.58 I got both and like the leather one so go get it and good luck
I picked up a T-mobile Wing leather pouch/belt clip for $5 on clearance at the store the day the phone was released. Works great for me and the case seems to be higher quality than a few others I have had.
Been using the old sidekick pouch myself. For about 2 years. HD2 fits in, but is far too snug. Pouch is raggedy anyway...
PDAir has some nice cases for HD2.
I use this one for T-Mobile HD2
I'm also looking for a leather belt pouch. I got a generic one (it's actually the one being offered in most online stores by default) that doesn't exactly fit the phone. Looks to be for a squatter, fatter device, but it stretches enough to fit an HD2.
What I'd like is a agenda-like one where the device is held inside by the corners, with a bottom access for the 3.5mm at least, a side access to the rocker switch, and a magnetic (or velcro, I'm willing to compromise) flap that secures the device.
If my dad were still alive we'd make a killing making those kind of cases and selling them here. Best leather worker ever. Sniff sniff...
