[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I was hoping Friday but they aren't going to be ready in time. Then we hit the 3 day holiday weekend, so Tuesday is what I'm shooting for. I'm expecting Tuesday to be a shipping nightmare though. Monday we shipped almost 700 orders, which is a lot for 2 people to handle in a day. With the 3 day weekend, we may very well hit 1000 orders to ship on Tuesday. If so, some of these might not ship until the 6th. We will try our best!

Also, the GeoTPU (geometric) cases are ready, unfortunately though these are revision 1 cases, meaning they have the cosmetic issue of the top camera hole being off. Since we are telling customers about it ahead of time, we arent sending free replacements for GeoTPU orders. Depending on how well they sell we may or may not fix the mold on those ones as well. Some people have asked me about the matte cases. We are doing it, it just got slightly delayed because of the camera issue. Should be ready in the next 14 days. We will have matte black, matte cyan, and matte android green. Thanks for all the support guys!

Here is what the Smoke GeoTPU looks like (these will also be available in smoke and clear via Amazon Prime on Friday)
[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
I was just about to post about the Geo one lol. I think I may have to order this one now, I like the looks much better then my diamond one :)

Damn looks slick as hell. I don't have a clear one yet so I can definitely see myself buying one of those. Any plans for a 100% clear TPU case or are there issues to be had with that?
[HTC EVO 3D] xPhantom:
I'm excited to see what the matte android green will look like!
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
Just received this for 14 dollars for me and my wife...
[HTC EVO 3D] retnuh730:
Are those TPU instead of silicone? They look like silicone to me.
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
TPU, there designs have like some circles, they are fitting great
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
Ima geto a group pack of tpu cases, then a kickstand one.

Boom... Headshot! from my L96A1
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
Link? Does it cover all buttons?
[HTC EVO 3D] twe90kid:
too bad your not making geotpu second revision! =(
[HTC EVO 3D] Bostonfin:
I love my gloss black from tpu-cases.com I will be ordering all three colores with the matte finish. Can't wait.
[HTC EVO 3D] twe90kid:
I would so buy 3 of these if they were made properly for cosmetic appearance. Revision 2 + GeoTpu FTW!

Please make a revision!
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
Yes except 2D/3D Switch, Charging Port, etc anyway here is the link

pm sent ;) and review left up on amazon under smoke grey rev 2 listing :)

don't think I'd go with the nearly one month to get from hk ones prefer supporting someone stateside(includes PR and others including Saba :P ) as much as possible esp. with such great customer support ! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] LostRib:
Do these cases leave any marks or residue on the phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] Bostonfin:
no marks or residue on my 3vo
[HTC EVO 3D] donaldvtrinh1:
I am using the Amzer TPU case that was purchased on Amazon. Works great.
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
I was guna get that, is it any good?

Boom... Headshot! from my L96A1
[HTC EVO 3D] LostRib:
How bulky are these cases?
[HTC EVO 3D] ScrapSilicon:
not at all
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Love my sexy tpu case :)
[HTC EVO 3D] dirkyd3rk:
Lol, what does that stand for. The past couple of days I've been trying to see what all the hype is about. I hate cases but how could this one change my mind? I'm not sold...sell me
[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
Haven't you read all the post!? Seen my pics!? Lol. I've tried many different tpu cases, and the ones from tpu-case.com are awesome. Not to thin and not to thick. Not a slick rubber feel, but not too much grip. They have a nice snug fit, buy not too big of a pain in the ass to take off. A tpu case is a hardend rubber case. You defiantly can't go wrong. Even if you don't use it all the time, if you want to go out but not have your phone on a belt holster, but still want the phone protected, a tpu case is great, and also adds a good look. I haven't taken mine off yet since I got it Monday! And I will defiantly be ordering more from tpu-case.com. And the best part is that he is an active member on here (OneStepAhead) and is very friendly to talk to. It's always good to support others here. And for his price, his are much better quality then ones I've bought on eBay.

[HTC EVO 3D] dirkyd3rk:
Actually I haven't read all post just a few from the back LOL. Great post though I'm going to probably order one or two just out of curiosity. I usually rock my phone naked; I just keep seeing these tpu threads LOL.
[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
I always had my EVO naked but I didn't want to hurt my 3D Lol and I can't stand big cases or real rubbery cases. But these tpu ones are pretty awesome :)

[HTC EVO 3D] retnuh730:
Ordered the clear GeoTPU case. They're cheap enough that I keep buying more. I might have a problem guys.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bigirish:
I picked up this honeycomb tpu case from the Sprint kiosk I used to work at. At first, the texture of the hexagons took since getting used to, but now it's perfect! The honeycomb acts as an awesome bumper when it's camera-down on a flat surface, as well. Oh, and it solved my issue with mushy volume rockers and power button, they work like a charm now!

Forgot to mention... if you can't find it locally, I just did a Google search for "Evo 3D honeycomb case" - Oddly, one of the links went to the verizon Wireless website, lulz
[HTC EVO 3D] blueescalade88:
I just ordered one. Any pics?
[HTC EVO 3D] funkyboy1281:
After reading all the posts about everyone saying they're good I decided to buy one. Plus I hate bulky cases. Also gotta give props to the customer service. Didn't realize my paypal was set to the wrong shipping address. Contacted support and within a few hours they changed the shipping address :)
[HTC EVO 3D] feeth:
Same here, very happy that I don't need to buy another holster for work.
[HTC EVO 3D] brienzee:
Man, I wish I had read about the matte cases coming out before I ordered the Argile Black one just a second ago. I hate glossy stuff, but every case I saw was gloss so I just broke down and ordered. I may just have to order a second Android green matte case when they come out though, that sounds sexy.

I hate putting cases on my phones, but the Evo 3d feels like it needs one for some reason. I've never used a TPU case, but I hate silicone, so I'm going with your guy's recommendation.
[HTC EVO 3D] Drachen808:
How much protection do these truly offer. I can imagine it wouldn't be as good as a defender, but is it substantially less protective than the defender, or only marginally so.

Edit: Oh and the blue diamond pattern for the vibrant looks sweet.
[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
I haven't dropped it yet ;) but I'm pretty sure its well protected and the phone won't get touched

Sent in 3D fashion
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Wow, that is sweet. I'll definitely have to consider a pattern like that for our lineup :) I don't imagine it would be too big of a seller though.. most people prefer solid colors.
[HTC EVO 3D] ninja984:
Protection wise its good I had one for the G2X and dropped it a couple times and it was fine.

Just got the smoke argyle in the mail for the Evo3d. I didnt even notice the camera was off until I looked in this thread. I wish the power button wasnt cut away though. It made it a lot easier to turn on. Great case though.
[HTC EVO 3D] jorts:
i know what you mean. the glossy finish is the only thing keeping me from ordering. not sure i can wait a month though as i've already dropped my phone once in the first week of ownership
[HTC EVO 3D] tubesaq:
Are there any matte prototype cases out yet? I would really love a picture of one. I, too, am waiting for a matte case.
[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
I actually much rather a design over a solid :) but that's just me lol.

[HTC EVO 3D] Icepick127001:
Just ordered the Clear GeoTPU case from the tpu-cases website. Even though it's a rev-1 someone else posted earlier that the slightly misaligned camera hole doesn't interfere with photos and I don't anticipate it really being a problem.

Edit: And for the record, I think it's awesome that OneStepAhead is an active member of these forums and replies to customer concerns quickly. I also really appreciate the free shipping! I will definitely order one of the matte colors when they're ready and will recommend this site (http://tpu-cases.com) to others looking for a new case!

Edit 2: I gave you a shout out on PPCGeeks in the Evo3D case thread. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
We just received so many complaints in the past about the power button being too hard to press that we had to switch to cutout. On some phones, it's not an issue. But on other phones the cutout helps tremendously. The Droid Charge for example, the power button is on the side and it's impossible to press and that one has a molded button. As far as the Evo 3D, it probably did not need to have the power button cutout. I find it extremely easy to press though. Had I made the mold, I would of made the cutout larger personally. It does work really well as is though, I can even press it with my thumb so you really don't need to get your fingertip in the hole even.

I had bought a TPU case from a different XDA'er last year for my Evo 4G. Some of you may recall that thread, I believe he had black and clear (black was matte, clear was frosted back inside). Those cases had molded power buttons and both the volume and power were near impossible to press. I can't recall the website now, he changed the name. I believe its now lids and cases or something to that effect. Sells hats and cases, hehe, what a combo!

The matte cases will be ready sometime this week and I should have them ready to ship on the 11th I hope.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I should have some pictures very soon. I'll post in this thread when I do.
[HTC EVO 3D] c01e:
Placed an order for the Smoke Argyle Rev 2 case, Cant wait to give it a shot, Currently have the platinum kickstand case and it works well, But I really like how the TPU-Cases covers more of the camera area.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Here are some samples of the new colors. Since the mold isnt quite done we used a Galaxy S II mold for the samples. The Evo 3D cases will not say Incipio obviously. They will have a very small TC on them though. Should be less then a cm total.

here is the android green:

and the Cyan, which will actually look considerably different once you put a black phone behind it. Should make it quite a bit darker:
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I probably shouldn't admit this but I just ordered the Casemate Pop case for the Evo 3D. Only problem is it has that super large cutout for the camera which i hate. I'm going to see if I can modify it somehow using one of our cases. I'm going to cut up probably one of the white cases since the case is white and see if I can fit it in the area somehow. Here is the Casemate Pop: http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=28093 I'll still use a TPU case when I don't need the extra protection, but it's nice to have a dual layered case at times.
[HTC EVO 3D] tablo:
OneStepAhead, does your company have an ebay store? If not, any idea when the matte cases will be available on ebay?

The reason I ask is because I have ebay credit. Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] dechutes:
I got the Cruiser from Best Buy and it's a little to slick, but mostly I really dislike the untrimmed excess material that runs around the sides. I have seen that on several cases and assume it is a result of the manufacturing process. When I'm holding the phone I really feel it and it's annoying. I want to try a TPU case, but I wanted to ask first if they have the same issue or not. Can anyone confirm?

I hope I'm being specific enough as I don't know the correct wording for it, but it's like when you used to make models and broke the pieces off the main part and it left that edge on the piece you had to trim.

Thank you!
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Most TPU cases will have some untrimmed ridge around the device. I dont feel its enough to be noticeable on our evo 3d cases though, what does everyone else think?

Regarding eBay, yes search for "tpu-cases" and you should find us. eBay id is post3rs.

Edit : the only spot i can feel the ridge on is on the bottom of the case where the mic is, i cant feel it at all on the sides.
[HTC EVO 3D] dechutes:
When you say where the mic is, if you are holding the phone in landscape mode does it rub on your finger?

Also, with this material is it something that could be removed with sandpaper or something without damaging the case?
[HTC EVO 3D] Razgriz:
So tempted to get the red one...just worried about the camera holes.
[HTC EVO 3D] bigkmoney:
I had an argyle for my 4g that I love so I went ahead and got a black for my 3vo. I love these cases. Easy to take on and off, very durable and improves grip on the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] retnuh730:
Having a hard case alongside the TPU in the vein of Seidio's active line would be amazing. Would your company have the resources to try and make one of these with TPU instead of silicone?
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Yes, definitely. We can do those. I'm definitely interested in releasing cases like that in the future. That said, there are already a lot of companies making dual layered cases that are doing a damn good job of it. Trident, Otterbox, Speck, Case-Mate, Ballistic. Ballistic actually has a dual layered case that uses TPU, I think its the SG? Right now, our niche is bringing cases to market either on or before launch day. There is a period of time when a phone is released that very few cases (if any) are on the market, so we try and capitalize on that. Since our TPU cases are just a simple mold, we can crank them out very fast. Something like what your suggesting would obviously take more time. Honestly my next project is most likely going to be bringing extended battery TPU cases to the market sooner then they have been. It's ridiculous that you cannot find an extended case AT ALL for the Samsung Fascinate/Mesmerize/i500 right now. How long has that phone been out? There is a huge market for those cases and no one is making them. So that's probably what you'll see from us next.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
If you ordered directly from our website and requested a replacement and have not received a tracking number from me today, send me another message. If you ordered from Amazon or eBay I still have a few of those to do, you'll hear from me by the end of the day.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I didn't think about landscape mode. Yes I can feel it when I hold it in landscape mode, but not with my finger. I guess it depends how you hold the phone <insert your holding it wrong joke here>. I can feel it a bit about where the web is in between my thumb and index finger. I have had a customer tell me they smoothed them out once, but I don't know how. You could sand it but then you would have to polish it. Unless you have a buffer I'm not sure how you'd do that. I'm not sure how bad the ridge was on the case you had before, but I never noticed it on this case until I read your post and checked. I don't hold the phone in landscape a lot either though.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
No issues for me bad ass case man thanks.

Got the GeoTPU case. Looks fine as hell. The top of its a tad looser than I'd like (pushes up pretty easily). Anybody else have this problem?
[HTC EVO 3D] enjoikr3w:
These cases look perfect for what I need. I hate glossy finishes though so I'm holding out for the matte batch. Any news one those?
[HTC EVO 3D] th3taman:
OneStepAhead, I just ordered one of your EVO 3D cases off your eBay account. Hopefully it doesn't take too long to get to me since I'm in the Midwest too! I can't wait to return this lint magnet silicone HTC case to Radio Shack!
[HTC EVO 3D] Phreddo:
No marks or residue per se.

However, and i wouldn't say this is specific to the tpu-cases, case, but i notice that grit and dust can get in between the device and the case. No good seal around the edge, and the argyle pattern inside the glossy case seems to create pockets for stuff to gather.

hopefully it won't turn my case into sandpaper against the shell of the phone.

but, otherwise, i really like the seafoam green case. makes it look like some old microcassette recorder.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Loved my tpu case :D
[HTC EVO 3D] polo79:
Any information about the matte finished tpu cases "coming soon"?
[HTC EVO 3D] Gordon Ramsay:
No chance of TPU-Cases Clear GeoTPU Cover for HTC Evo 3D being fixed for camera holes? :( I want to give you more moneyz!
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Yes, it has been fixed now. Only thing is I still have a lot of the first Geo's and they clear is not selling very well. The smoke is selling pretty good though. As soon as I get rid of them I will have some of the revision 2s. If the problem affected the use of the case I would just pull them and throw them away but it seems a bit silly/wasteful to do that considering.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Yes, Matte Smoke, Matte Black, Matte Cyan, and Matte Android green should be to me on Monday. I'll then need to take pictures and make the listings, which on a Monday I will probably not have time to do since I have to ship all the weekend orders. It will probably be Monday night or Tuesday morning before I get them up on the site. I'm going to send a majority of them to Amazon as there are just starting to be too many orders for us to fill by ourselves. If I send them to Amazon on Monday they would be available with Prime/Super Saver on Wednesday afternoon.
[HTC EVO 3D] polo79:
Sweet. I suppose this is revision 2 with the correct camera hole and not a cut out for power button?
[HTC EVO 3D] sling:
I should be receiving mine on Monday-Tuesday ordered through your site.

I can PM you order #

How would I go about swapping for Matt black?
[HTC EVO 3D] funkyboy1281:

[HTC EVO 3D] BennyD:
Just received my smoke argyle case. I like it except the part by the volume button doesn't fit tightly and bulges out just a bit. Anyone else have that problem? I don't want anything getting in between that area of the case. If it's a defect I'd like to get another, but if that's how it is that's how it is heh.
[HTC EVO 3D] gingson:
I luv my Amzer TPU case. Camera holes are properly aligned.
[HTC EVO 3D] Icepick127001:
I received my clear Geo case today (version 1 with the hole slightly off-center.) I really don't see how this could affect the camera since the case still remains well away from the shutter. It's just a cosmetic glitch and nobody will notice as long as attention is not drawn to it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Icepick127001:
No, I don't have that problem with mine.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vesnik:
Yikes, just dropped my phone earlier tonight, was in slow motion. I will admit, was a little drunk. With the Tpu-Cases Case, fell on the corner and bounced like a rubber ball. No damage to the phone what so ever, can't even see any damage to the case even to be honest. Really glad I purchased this case.
[HTC EVO 3D] innate024:
I received my smoke revision 2 case yesterday and I am very happy with it! The protection is great and it adds a nice grip to the phone. Definitely gonna look into the matte cases when they are available.
[HTC EVO 3D] banzaiwolfe:
I got my replacement smoke case that should have been version 2...looks like it has the exact same hole placement as the first one, and thus the same alignment issue?
[HTC EVO 3D] funkyboy1281:
I bought the smoke argyle revision 2 and this is what the back of mine looks like for the camera holes. This doesn't bother me at all since I don't really know what it's supposed to look like exactly.

Guys the matte cases arrived and they are perfect! Hole pattern is fixed and they look SICK.

[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
yes it does.

[HTC EVO 3D] polo79:
oh. any plans on getting ones without the cutout? i played with one with the cutout and found the power button hard to press.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Definitely not, I personally love the cutout. It's my favorite part of the case, the power button is so easy to press! It seems I cant please everyone, some people want the cutout some people dont. In my testing the cutout is considerably better so I have no plans on going back to a molded power button. The amount of emails I've gotten regarding the power button since switching to a cutout has gone done 10 fold. Sorry its not working for you.
[HTC EVO 3D] polo79:
