otter-box-commuter-case-for-htc-evo
Has anyone bought this case yet? It's on the front page for Droiddog. I wanted some feedback because I was thinking about getting this case. I'm getting my replacement today, and I don't want to get any scratches on it.
I saw it at the sprint store a few weeks ago. Looks damn protective.
Too bulky for me.
A question about an accessory in the general section?

hello all! I'm new to the site, so I thought seen as this is my first thread I would say hello etc.. *waves*.. I got my XDA mini s last week and with some help from this place have it working nicely (on the stock rom might I add, as it appears to be the latest from O2..).
However, I noticed that after leaving it under my PC moniter it had effected the colouring of the screen (as a magnet would), it took me about 5mins to realise that the case that comes with the XDA from O2 has two magnets in it to hold the flap down when the case is closed. The only thing I am not sure off is how this will effect my XDA? I was never one to trust companies to think before they act so producing a case that would damage the product it is designed for does not stretch my belief, but I'm honestly unsure of how it would effect things... Thoughts on the subject?
On a slightly related note (and something I asked in another thread, but figured I would put it here also due to it being related)..
What kind of screen protector do people recommend? What about a link to a decent case too? Do you guys keep your wizards in a case or just keep it hanging around in your pockets? Worried about damaging the thing but getting it out of the case to answer a call is a tad annoying..
Thanks for any help and advice
*waves more*
I decided to just buy a new case ! This one will make it easier to use too, so all is well once more..
So which one did you decide on? Interested for my own XDA Mini S. Cheers.
I went with the PDAir book type leather case (review: http://www.onppc.com/forum/article_read.asp?id=12) which are on sale on ebay for £14.49 with free shipping.. it is however coming from hongkong which could mean a fake :\.. we shall see ! To buy them new from PDAir.com is around the same price but you have to pay for shipping, which I thought would probably fairly high, so I decided to chance it with ebay..
The review plus some feedback of another forum member in another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29227) sold the case for me.. Ill post a review when i get it in a week or so.
For me the issue with the case I had (the O2 default case) was the hugely powerful magnets in it and the fact that it was a slip out (and one that was not easy to slip the phone out off) which would take me 5mins to get the damn thing out to answer a call..
I also have a PDAir case (flip style rather than book), which I bought direct from PDAir. Shipping from Hong Kong was quite fast; IIRC, it took only 3 days to get to the US. Total cost including shipping was $28.

I got my zagg put on a week ago. Fits and looks great. I havent had any issues with sides yet.

I dont know about sides because I just got the screen cover and not the full body. It went on without a problem just like all others I have bought before! I know I dont really need a screen guard but it eases my mind!
I bought two Evos and we have Zagg screen protectors on both and there were easy to put on, stick really well, have no issues from them at all, the screen still responds really well and then we added gel skins/covers to them both. Being I pre-ordered at RS, the Zaggs didnt cost me anything.
I love my Zagg's I have used them for my past 3 phones including a Touch Pro and Touch Pro 2.
I have already purchased the EVO's protection but I am on the waiting list for the phone until the new ones arrive on Wed.
If something goes wrong I'll come back and let everyone know, otherwise assume it to go as well as all the other instillations I have done - smooth and pretty.

Hey all, this is my first post from the native app. Cool. I just wanted to put a question out to see if anyone else may be experiencing this issue. I have one of the first ones sold, as I bought it the day before it actually went on sale due to some CS issues I had with ATT. I took the back cover off to access my SD card and realized that the top part of the glass is coming loose from the housing. It appears as if it is put on with adhesive that is not working to well. I would appreciate it if anyone else has notice this if they could let me, and others know. I am going to ATT after work to show them. I am sure this is going to be a hassle.

I'm seeing the same thing on my Aria- I bought mine roughly 2 weeks ago, and am seeing evidence that the top left and right corners of the screen glass are coming loose.
Any luck with talking to AT&T about this? I'd like to see about getting mine replaced as well, so any tips from your efforts would be awesome.
Hey guys,
Last night my phone got smacked out of my hand onto the concrete and itt cracked the hell out of my screen.
It's still completely functional, but it looks like a jigsaw puzzle at the moment.
Anyone know where you can get replacement glass or I could send the phone off to for repairs?
Cheers guys.
I assume you didn't opt for insurance?

Negative.
They don't sell the Atrix in Aus. I purchased from an Ebay seller...
Thus - not insured.
Never mind.
Should've searched a bit better. Found this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=983154&page=3
Heaps of info.
Thanks anyway guys.
Just ordered my Oppo and was hoping there was a seller in the US that sold some accessories as I need a case sooner than a couple weeks.
i havent been able to find any.. amazon doesnt seem to have any cases
only has found them on Ebay at $8 with a screen protector.. but took 3 weeks to come in
in for more options!!!
Looks like I will just have to order off eBay, but I was really needing something by next week. Doesn't look like I have any other options though.
i waited for my case. used it for two days and havent put it back on my phone. i just put on the screen protector and called it a day
im usually pretty good with my phones *knock of wood*
but if someone can chime in with more cases. that would be awesome!
