Gentlemen, I need help

Guys hey,
I’m looking to get a nice leather case to compliment me and my awesome HD2 (T-Mobile USA).
I like this one: pielframa.com/htc-touch-hd-2-red-case
but I’m not sure if tit will fit perfectly my phone as US version of HD2 is slightly taller. Any one got it for your wife/gf?
Please suggest other cases for US version.
Thanks, xo

Just get the Zagg Invisi shield and then you dont need a case

I have a Max Protection Zagg installed on my phones, but I still don't like putting my phone in my pockets so I have been trying some different pouches and have surprisingly found many iPhone cases that works really nice with the HD2.

I can't really say if they're more feminine or not, but here's the only other 3 styles I've seen for HD2 leather cases. The last one doesn't specifically say it'll work with the Tmo HD2, but I think there's a good chance based on its flexibility.
Type 5
Type 6 (several various styles actually)
Type 7

Very Nice and Quality Built Case

Blonde_Sometimes,
I have the Noreve Leather Case for my HTC HD2 USA T-Mobile version. One of very few cases that completely protect your precious device including the camera. Personally, I think the Noreve Case is very classy. Something a woman would be proud to brandish from her handbag / purse.
The case I got was the HTC Touch HD2 Tradition leather case
The Color I got was Illumination Selection Black Onyx. More Information On The Illunination Selection
Most of the time I just keep it in my slacks pocket or jacket pocket without the belt clip attached. On some occasions, when wearing jeans or shorts and just a t-shirt that does not have a pocket, I use the belt clip. I will not put my HD2 in jeans pocket.
If you plan on using a belt clip, I highly suggest you get the Belt clip 360 degree rotation - Metal
Here is some photos of my case. Click on the photograph to see a slideshow.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Thank you,
Monnie

Thank you Sirphunkee,
Noreve has different styles of textures / finishes. Check it out if the Illumination Selection is too shiney for you. The Illumination Selection is varnished leather, similar to Patent Leather.
Also, I forgot to mention, on the flap, there is a cutout for the hardware buttons.
I liked it so much, I got two. One for work, and one I keep for going out on the town.
When going out, I put my Drivers' License, Concealed Weapons License,and my Credit Card in the slot. No need to take a wallet.
Thank you,
Monnie

Monnie - your case is really beautiful! But the colors too pale for my taste.
Sirphunkee, sincere thanks for all links. I ended up contacting Piel Frama derectly and they will make custom made case for me which will fit T-mobil version “like a glove”
Thanks boys, XOXO

The Noreve case has LOTs of colors and 4 different styles of leather to choose from. Probably 30 or so choices total. I agree with Monnie about noreve being the way to go... I got one of those for my HD2 custom made for me. Best case I've ever owned. Already dropped my HD2 on driveway and case protected it perfectly. Check out the noreve website... there are lots of color options.
I got the Dark Vintage from the Exceptional Selection... The leather feels like suede... it's beautiful. And I also recommend the metal belt clip if you're gonna be using it clipped on to something.
If you still go with piel frama, I definitely recommend the magnum case... otherwise you will have problems with the proximity sensor being covered by the leather. I've also heard it makes it harder to touch the sides of the screen accurately because of the leather. The magnum case holds the phone the same way the noreve case does, so you don't have leather covering sensors and around the screen & buttons. The main reason I picked the noreve over the magnum case was the bigger variety of leathers and colors the noreve has and the fact that the magnum uses magnets which interferes with the compass. Also, I wasn't sure if the magnum would fit the US HD2 well, as it was made for the euro version. The Noreve case was also made for the euro version, but it still fits the US version great.

Favourite G2 protective cases

Hi guys,
Was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations for cases for the G2?
I like how it looks naked but am worried about dropping it!
If it was made entirely of that grippy grey material and didnt have the aluminium finish on the back itd make a difference but..
Also if phones had wrist strap loops I wouldn't need a case at all!
What are you guys using and what's good about it?
Thanks!
Edit: erm i just realised the existence of the G2 accessories forum
Sorry mods! orz

i got a smoke clear case from vanguard... 5/5 stars

Check out the Accessories forum

I like the cheap black G2 case that is posted in the accessory forum. I also trade off between that and the clear case with kickstand that T-Mobile sells. Got it on accessorygeeks.com for cheaper though. The clear one is hard to take off.

I use the G1 OEM Black Pouch for my phone. Mostly when its in my pocket to protect it from my keys and to keep dust away. Fits perfect. About $4 bucks on Ebay.

the cases at accessorygeeks.com are good
if you live in canada it takes 3 weeks to ship to you

I run naked! Well I grabbed a Stealth Guard on their site for $3 and so far I like it, protects the back fairly well...just wished it was on the side better

Bought a $3 case off of Amazon. Great fit butthe paint job isn't the best.

Whats D Nexus⁴ Case Ure Using? Plan To Get Nicer Ones :D

Lets discuss on the casings for Nexus⁴ attactive(Cool Design) ones and protective(Flip Cases) ones! Please do provide names or links or pictures for it
Nexus⁴ is indeed a hot device, its worth my waiting like a drug addict everyday bugging my gmail for the shipping notification.
there r few cases about the glass at the back experiencing minor cracks,
so i think its better to protect it even though it looks gorgeous without casing and so hard to get a new one
i already had this Nillkin Flip Case at Tmall on standby, bought it from china's "amazon", tmall.com, their original factory's online store
Then i saw Cruzerlite's Androidified A2 TPU Case For Nexus⁴(Teal) attracted by its Android design,
while scrolling around i saw another nice oneXdadevelopers's CASE for Nexus⁴, also by Cruzerlite.
Both are looking cool, but before i buy them i wanna know if there are other casings with Cool Designs out there? Since i chose Cruzerlite because of its designs. I want my phone to look nice even with cases on.
I also need Flip Cases (Book Style)(prefer leather ones, because Nillkin's surface didnt convice me and it gets dirty easily those who had Nillkin flip case will know about this) and as what you all know, Flip Cases for Nexus 4 is extremely hard to find
what i want is 1 Cool Looking, and 1 Flip Case(Book Style) , both are hard to find,
other casings like diztronics' simple design or other cases that i found in this forum board even though they may give protection to device but their design didnt appeal to me(not to insult)
thats why i wanna find out if there are better ones, those who knows of Cool Looking, and Flip Case please do tell me about it, simple user review if possible :highfive:

I too have the xda case on order even though I have a set up I am currently satisfied with. I have now, the Diztronic Ultra hard thin that doesn't cover the top or bottom of the phone like the Diztronic TPU does. It works for me because I can now use the Seidio Surface spring holster made for the GNEX without much of an issue. The thiness of the shell works for me but not for all, so you'll need to decide what you are comfortable with.
According to your list, you are looking at tpu all the way. For the choices listed, which I have most of them except for the Cruzerlite models, I would go for the Diztronic tpu. It's pretty darn thin and the only negative is that the logo on the tpu is a bit glossy for my taste, but you get used to it . Happy shopping!

urm not necessarily tpu, im looking towards more good appearance cases thats what cruzerlite design attracted me
my plan is to use 1 nice looking flipcase for full protection, and another nice looking which only covers back :laugh: as long as its looking good even when not naked :highfive:

I love my poetic bumper, I had an sline tpu case and it was ok but the power button became increasingly difficult to press.

Stop taking other people credit for accessories links.. is already a sticky
"Vanilla android >jail broken iOS>90" TV's"

I am looking forward to my hand-crafted leather noreve case.
pricey but very classy and top notch leather.

Yeah, a side flip should be preferable to top-down. Though I will give you guys an update on functionality.

Try the Poetic Slimbook Leather Case for Google Nexus 4 (New)

I got the Poetic case when it was for under $4 and I absolutely love it! I am wallet-free as of now, since all I carry is the phone and the case which holds 3 cards and cash. It takes time for the leather to stretch and accomodate 3 cards, but now its the best thing I bought, well, after my N4 lol
The only downer is its a pain to use this case by just one hand, and taking a picture without the aid of the other hand is next to impossible.
So I've ordered the amCase(TM) Slim fit case for Google Nexus 4 -Matte Black for under $3 including shipping. Should be here tomorrow/Tuesday, so will update my post.
Cheers!

wow, poetic slim case was very nice to me! how come you got all your cases so cheap? where do you buy it ? mind sharing it? :victory:
btw, the case was using magnetic clips right?
saw about this one and plan to buy it, but its at china website... :S almost the same like poetic ,without the place to hold cards... http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.10.80.gPYjN8&id=18281667386
btw with the bumper shortage on google website i bought shenit bumper case for nexus 4, on amazon
so now i have nillkin bookstyle flip case, cruzerlite androidified tpu case, shenit bumper case, plan to buy http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.10.80.gPYjN8&id=18281667386 to replace the nillkin flipcase, dont quite like its serface

Need help choosing a case

Hi guys,
I am looking for a case which is similar to urban armor gear.
I only find those ultra thin cases, i dont rly like.
Ballistic's case is the only one i found.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english

In terms of protection, I think the 'MyBat Tuff Hybrid Protector Case' comes closest.
There is a thread on it here.

I just found a great tpu matte case at T-Mobile. Like it better than my Diztronic.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

ty both, but i don't like the white part at the mybat case and the tpu one doesn't look like it would defend my nexus like i want to
any other ideas?

I ordered the "Ionic GUARDIAN Armor Case for LG Google Nexus 4" from Amazon today. Looks like it offers good drop protection. Has good reviews on Amazon. Cost ~$12 shipped.

the problem of this case is that it is made our rubber itself. it's hard to get out of ur trousers and in my opinion it is kinda ugly but this is my personal opinion. still thanks for ur recommendation.
Is there any other case, which is available for the nexus 4? i would prefer if u can buy it in germany, but it's not mandatory

What do you recommend for Tempered Glass.....

Hey guys whats going on. Well Im walking away from the Otterbox Series of cases for my S5. Went with another brand for a case and Now I am looking for some tempered glass to protect the screen. I have done some reading and looking around but there are soo many companies making glass, and I have yet to own one. So I am seeing what others are using and what you guys here recommend.
What do you guys like and why?
I have found Anker to look good and I hear alot about Spigen, Zagg and I loome. But what do you guys recommend????
All thoughts and comments will be looked over and thought about. I just dont wanna go out and buy twice if you guys know what I mean. thank you

Yeah I ordered the tough armor case for 9 bucks. couldnt beat that. Just dont know which Tempered glass to get.....
What makes the Zagg so expensive compared to Zerolemon and Anker which are 9 dollars instead of zaggs 35 dollars???

It's thicker and therefore gives more chance of surviving if you would drop your phone face down.
Ps. My phone equiped with above combo, survived couple of accidental drops on hard surfaces and it's still alive in perfect form.
