I've had the speck case for the past 2 days and I've noticed a slight swirling pattern from being on my desk and in/out of my pocket. But when you think about it, better on the case than the phone right? The phone is still in perfect condition, thanks to the case. :D

As for accessories not fitting, yes the male end of the supplied micro USB cable is too big for the charging port with the case on. However, coming from the Nexus One, using the Nexus One microUSB cable on the G2X (with the case on) has offered a better fit. Also, the headset that came with the Nexus One fits perfectly as well (however, I can't test the pause/play, or mic during phone calls, because those broke a long time ago on my headset.)

I went to a T-Mobile store yesterday to buy this case because I thought it was the best of the 3 cases that T-Mobile was selling in their store.

I didn't like their rubber case, I didn't care for the glossy rubber or the square pattern on it. I didn't like the body glove one because I thought it was too big and it had the belt clip on it, which I would never use, so the Speck, in my mind was the lesser of 3 evils.

However when I went to check out I was talking about the G2X with the employee there and he pulls out his phone and it's got the body glove case on it. I then compared the thickness of the phone with the body glove vs the speck and they were the same thickness, but the body glove looked better and had that nice rubberized back. I found out the belt clip piece was removable and they had an other piece to full in the knob hole so it was completely flat on the back.

For anyone looking for the protection of the speck case but they don't want the glossy plastic back that shows scratches, check out the body glove case you may like it. I think it's about $5.00 cheaper too, and if you buy 3 accessories you get 30% off you whole purchase.

I figure this will hold me over until more cases hit the market and I have more options. I would prefer something a bit thinner but I want to wait until more case manufacturers come out with cases for this phone.

Just got mine in the mail & I love it (:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] himmelhauk:
I can attest to the fact of the case scratching like a son of a gun. I've had mine for barely 3 days, have kept in a pocket by itself, and only laid it on smooth surfaces, and it seriously looks like I took a steel wool pad to it. Ridiculous for spending 38 bucks. Yes, I know that it is just a case, but it's nice to have one that doesn't look like it was dropped down a gravel lined pipe. Durability wise, this case is beast, especially having the rubber inside combined with the hard outer shell. I will be keeping this case because it protects quite well, I'm just unhappy with how easily and unbelievably it gets scratched up. Mine looks far worse than the OP's case, have a look lol...especially across the top portion by the camera opening. I used my phone to take the pics, it looks the same in case as the pics the OP posted.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] F0rgiven:
Actually quite enjoy my speck case. It may scratch easily (very shallow), but again at least it's the case and not my phone. It's very well-fitted and feels super solid.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iamlilysdad:
I also have the Speck case (obviously). It scratches easily. That wouldn't be a problem except that it's getting scratched by carpet. I know for a fact that the phone itself wouldn't scratch from the carpet because I didn't have a case for two days.

I'm definitely keeping this case at least until something better comes out. The fit and finish is second to none. Yes, the holes could be bigger but I can deal with that for now. The Candyshell case for the Iphone 4 does the same thing with the ports. Just seems to be that line of cases from them.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pettigrew95:
I actually had to take a large drill bit and widen the top of my 3.5mm headphone jack haha my AUX cable in my car wouldnt fit. It actually doesn't look that bad I smoothed the drilled hole with a small circular sander. The case looks like it was inside Bin Laden's mansion during the gunfight but it is a solid case protection wise and I like it alot.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hukkguai:
Just got my Speck case today. I like it a lot. I have seen a buddy's case scratch up pretty easily so I left the clear plastic sticker on the back (almost feels like a Zagg skin).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wolf230:
Ordered today......shipping in 5 days.....

After ask me any question
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brian6685:
I love this case I've been using it since I had the phone. Only issue is when taking the phone out of the case I feel like the only way I can get it out is by pushing it out by pressing on the camera...which I don't like to do. Anyone else have a good way of getting it out? Lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dougstoner:
Yeah, I would just kind of peel the bottom left corner of the case out and push from behind to get the corner out of the case, then slowly make my way around the rest of the case. I got sick of the speck case though. The gray part that surrounds the case on top started to wear away and looked like crap. Plus, all the scratches were looking terrible. Anyway, hope this helps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brian6685:
Thanks. What case did you switch to?

G2X & Nexus S
[T-Mobile LG G2x] down8:
COMPLETELY UNRELATED: a resume crossed my desk yesterday, and the guy currently works for Speck. I would've had no idea what the company did if not for this thread.

RELATED: I can't wait for more TPU cases to hit the market for this phone.

-bZj
[T-Mobile LG G2x] slickerxcuh:
good idea, should have left mine on it. maybe ill buy a zagg skin and slap it on lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] enyahs:
I have this case. Had it for about a week. It is so scratched already. It also feels like it adds so much bulk to the phone. It may not look that way. But in my hand it feels so much bigger. I took it off and now looking for a tpu case.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] turbo_k:
This case gets scratched pretty easily and those scratches are highly visible to the naked eye. Kind of an eye sore for the user. But other than that, works as it should: protects. Imo, feels solid and not too bulky.

Kinda pricey tho but I'd still recommend
[T-Mobile LG G2x] slickerxcuh:
i bought this case from wirelessground.com they have it for 19.99 or body glove for 17.99 instead of other retailers trying to rape for 40.00
[T-Mobile LG G2x] btate0121:
you people are making me regret ordering this yesterday.... *heads to amazon to order a TPU backup
[T-Mobile LG G2x] turbo_k:
Nah, its a better regret than scratching your phone lol. But the case is pretty good imo
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fzsrv:
Got the Speck from day one. Since then I have tried 2 different TPU cases and really like the slimness of the TPU. Decided that I really like the Speck case better then realized why haven't gone back to it before. It adds too much bulk and makes it unusable in the my generic car mount. Unable to attach the charging cable with the Speck case and the mount. Bummer! Really want to use the Speck!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BlackElvis79:
I am really liking the Speck case. It fits like a glove, way better than others I've used. The phone still feels lite but has a more complete look now. As far as scratches are concerned, its a protective case so how I see it is, every Scratch that I see on the case is one that would've been on the phone so I'm happy.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gsallen97:
Speck case

I am using the case and yes it scratches if you breath on it but the fit and protection it gives the phone is awesome. I am more worried about the condition of the $400+ unit inside the $38 dollar case and ye s I use it and love it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] btate0121:
Ok.. so my case came in thursday the 12th.. it's been 6 days with the case on... no MAJOR scratches. I do have small minor abrasions.. but overall the case is still pretty shiny. I'm wondering if the reason why scratches are so noticable is because of the shiny finish as opposed to the matte or textured finish of most other cases. I for one don't find this case to be extremely prone to excessive scratches.. so far it seems on par with what i'd expect from a case i sit on hard surfaces regularly.. *shrug*. but it's only been 6 days.

SIDENOTE: The bulk this thing adds... ITS FANTASTIC. I'm a man with marge hands (medium/large). so holding such a thin and light device for extended amounts of time caused me some pain (i had an itouch before.. sold that with the QUICKNESS).. i like that I can have a thin/light device if i need to by removing the case.. but for everyday use like NOVA or whatever other great game is avaialble.. i don't have any issue holding my device. Tis the awesome.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PseudoChris:
Case scratches, phone is SAFE.

First, I have to say that a case's ability to PROTECT a phone is much more important than its ability to protect itself. I don't like to spend too much on something that is made to take a beating, but looks and design are very important.

Because of the rubber material on the inside of the case, there is no plastic-on-plastic contact between the case and the phone which means if any particles make their way in there, they won't scratch the back of the phone.

The case does scratch easily, but the design is so aesthetically attractive that most people will notice that before any of the scratches.

I bought the Speck "Moondust" Candyshell for 1/2 the price on eBay and I have very few complaints...

Pros:

- Very snug fit

- Soft interior w/hard exterior

- Looks great

- Power/Volume buttons enclosed, yet still easy to use.

- Openings for ports have no problems with most audio/usb/hdmi cables.

- High rubber lip around phone bevel. (So the phone can be safely set face-down on most surfaces and has good corner support)

- Fairly low-profile for the amount of protection offered (the naked G2x is actually a little too thin for my hand size & frequency of text/typing)

Cons:

- Plenty o' scratches on the plastic.

- I cracked the thin piece on the USB port opening when removing the phone from the case (this can be tricky).. But the rubber allows it to keep its shape.

This could actually be a good thing by allowing any larger USB cables to connect while in the case? haha or maybe my love for this case is just allowing too much optimism.

Anyway, for $18 [eBay] I have yet to find a better case for the G2x.

(You can also get it for about $13 used, which might not be a bad option if cash is tight since they scratch easily)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] v8dreaming:
I had one on my phone from the day the G2x released. I have also suffered from random shut downs. I removed the case and my phone has not shut down since. Not on the charger and not any other time.

I love the way it fits etc. but it's causing the phone to overheat and shut off. So, no more case for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aszure3:
The speck case is awesome!!! It has saved my butt a few times now. I have my phone in my pocket and lost my balance while rollerblading. My phone hit the ground at 15-20 miles and hour and had just a tiny cosmetic damage to it. Another time I was listening to music while in the shower and if fell in to the tub right under the flow of water and it protected it from getting water damaged ... Then the one time I don't have that maybe slightly bulky case on I stand up with my phone in my lap and it hits the pavement face-down... I got very very lucky it shattered my gorilla glass just below my screen there the menu and home buttons are. So all in all I am glad I bought the speck case.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] btate0121:
Ditto on the overheating issue. I regularly had extreme overheating on stock and CM7 roms when using gps. I know the phone itself is the issue with the heating but the lack of ventilation on this case didnt help im sure. Right now I'm using a trident aegis case that had a grill on the back (i presume to help with air flow. I loved my speck case though and will use it was a back up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
does anyone have a picture of the phone in the moondust/grey/purple case? i'd like to see if that one scratches as badly as the black
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jayroam:
Great case, but I too had the overheating problem. I still use it every now and then when I go running or some similar activity. I'll probably end up getting ghost armor or invisashield like I had on my vibrant

[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
i found the moondust speck case on ebay for 8 bucks so i think i'm going to order it. it's refurbished of course so it will probably have tons of scratches but apparently that will happen anyway so i'd rather pay like nothing for it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] justfortest:
same here I purchased a refurbished one. will try it one when it's arrived. i don't mind the scratches if it's 8 bucks lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
i got mine and it's pretty beat up but i still like the look of it. my phone has been having some reboot issues and i've been having to do some battery pulls so i'm almost afraid to put this case on... i've read that it's a real pain to get off so are there any tips in removing it easily?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] helixcardinal:
I bought the Speck Candyshell case from wirelessground.com four months ago. I love the case, but the bridge overlying the charging port recently cracked. I contacted Speck about getting it replaced under warranty, and they are unable to do so because wirelessground is not an authorized retailer for Speck products. Keep this in mind if you're thinking about buying the case. I contacted Wirelessground about a replacement and they're unwilling to replace my case either. Pretty disappointing customer service all around.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
that's a bummer! do you take the case off and on a lot? is that why it broke? or just with normal use on the phone?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kingdomseed:
Same problem as OP

I also have the black speck candy shell case and after about 3 days of use it is completely scratched up and ugly. I also have the trident case and I love it. It is really sturdy and feels like it won't slip out of my hand.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] helixcardinal:
I don't take my case off very often, just normal use. I pushed wirelessground some more and they asked me to mail my case to them. They have it now, but refuse to replace my case saying that it's not a manufacturer's defect. I've spoken with Speck some more and they say they would replace my case without hesitation if purchased directly from them or through an authorized retailer.

Buyer beware with wirelessground if you want to get this Speck case. You'll be on the hook if anything happens to the case. I wish I had spent a few more bucks and bought direct.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tokimaromi:
i used this case for a week and was finally able to yank it off with a ton of force. i am never putting it back on again for fear of not being able to get it off!

This is sad to hear. I really enjoyed the Speck cases for the iPhone.

hi,

I currently have a Blackberry 9700 with att. Here are my concerns as i really want a Nexus S.

How much data do you guys use currently? With my BB i barely reach 600 mb even tho i feel like i am on it like 24/7.

Do you think it is worth getting the 4g version with Spring?

Currently, my sisters company pays for my cell bill so making a change and paying my own bill will suck, but i really want the Nexus S.

Hi everyone I have readed all the threads regarding flashing/hacking/fixing

first of all i have try to do this odin and with the the flash but found out it wasn't that eazy first

when i went to get my tab into downloading screen the computer can't find the dumb tab thats connected.

if you have that problem what i did.

first i disconnected the usb fromthe tab and click on setting/applications/development/ and click the usb debugging check mark it will not let you check it if you have the usb plug in (Im dumb so i found out the hard way) then installed the samsung kies ( i don't knwo if that helped or not but i just did everything that i could find to try to get this to work which was to connect the tab to the computer when the tab is on downloading mode)

now i started odin3 and it show that the yellow box showing it was connected.

started the with the normal p1 hidden pit /gt-p100/modem p1000

i was thinking yes i'm on my way but hold on it freezed on me. and just stop with a error and odin tells me it fail. but on my tab it show that its at 50%

so what i do i hard reset my tab and now the next problem

the famuse 3 icon the phone/ <!>/ computer Icon

i was oh ****. so what i did form that screen i turn on my odin and it show its still connected. so what i did was try to do the same thing again but nothing just error.

so the next thing i did was open odin and just run modem.bin file which is the modem_beni9000 file and with that i was about to get a splash screen the Samsung Tab ... and nothing else. well from there i figure ill try to finish the process. when i got the samsung tab screen i was able to get into the download screen again with power + down volum and i'm in the download screen and still the tab is connected to the computer and the odin still reconize that its connected so i ran the P1000XXJK5 and bam... i was able to get my tab back and was able to get the phone icon and working. i might be lucky that it work but if your in the same problem as what i was in i hope it help. i no expect after the 2 days of reading and trying stuff i'm no noob now still call myself noob PM if u need to ask quest ill be happy to help as much as possible ^^

I Feel like im stuck, i have the Sprint GT. Seems there is minimal development for the Sprint GT and having an HTC EVO and using the EVO forums I'm sad.. I would gladly open my wallet as i do in the EVO forums here in the GT forums. Anybody out there feeling my same pain? :(
[Galaxy Tab General] SDW90808:
I feel your pain. I think I've only a few rooted apps working on my Sprint Tab. Not the end of the world but my Moto Droid is more fun to play with. I'm something of a hack so I don't even know if it's possible to unlock the bootloader but it would be nice to have a few other apps working like the Wireless Tether.
[Galaxy Tab General] nsmal24:
Sprint Tab

I understand completely. I bought a Sprint Tab and was shocked at the lack of development (came from incredible which is very similar to Evo). However, after root, CWM, voodoo, and custom kernel, I can say that I don't really desire to do anything else to my Tab. I cleaned up some bloatware myself (freeze/delete) and it runs like a dream. BTW, see this thread if you need help with anything besides root.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1016758

So don't be too disappointed, with some minor changes (VOODOO!!!) you won't need a custom rom. App performance, battery life, and general usage are all terrific now.
[Galaxy Tab General] Maddball:
Did you try the one click root method?
[Galaxy Tab General] Maddball:
Thanks for the great info! I would really be happy if i could eventually have honeycomb on my GT. Im super happy with performance and size but it looks like all of the alpha and soon to be beta versions for the GT are all GSM or for Verizon. Well i said all that because my 30 trial is up in a few weeks and i dont want to be stuck with 2.2. But im gonna give Voodoo a try, just need to read up on it entirely. Thanks again!

Why don't you try overcome custom rom?
[Galaxy Tab General] Maddball:
I may need to search harder not sure i saw overcome for Sprint.

[Galaxy Tab General] jjhiza:
Honestly guys, aside from Spacemonkey's HC port, there's not much support for the VZW Tab either. All I have are a few root apps, and CWM, which is virtually useless without development. The Xoom already has custom kernels, but nobody seems to be able to get behind the GT on any level. Kinda disappointing, but I'll check out Voodoo, and maybe give that a shot.
