Word! I work as a stock manager at a warehouse, had the OBD on my old EVO and it saved it numerous times. Got it for the 3DVO and love the Look and feel of it. Plus, in case folks didn't know, the holster doubles as a dock station with a kickstand, and if you dont actually click the phone into the case, it amplifies the audio quite well by providing a sort of acoustical chamber. All in all, best 50 dollars I could've spent

[HTC EVO 3D] bmoreboy02:
When you take the rubber silicone outer layer off the ballistic the innercase is a hard plastic shell with the screen protector. Well when your holding the phone to your ear during a call it hurts. The otterbox soft rubber dosent
[HTC EVO 3D] guyandhisdog:
The thing is a horse but it seeks almost bomb proof. I love it but old wifey wasn't into it for hers ( unless they make a defender with flower prints on it...haha)

Screen protector is thick and smooth. It would be even better if it was anti glare. Coming from the Hero, this phone is already waaay bigger so WTH if I add a few centimeters with this defender. It's solid.

can HTC install a trackball on this thing?
[HTC EVO 3D] yankele:
To me it happened just the opposite, I got my 3VO and Friday and also bought the otterbox commuter thinking that the defender was too bulky! I went home and just today I decided to bring it back to the store (which I did) because it really doesn't protect the phone that much and the silicone on top of the phone is very loose. Now I have my defender and I'm really happy with it and its not that bulky after all....
[HTC EVO 3D] Tornadobarrage:
I am planning on getting it but I want the kickstand case too. I drop my phone a lot I was wondering if the kickstands case can protect the phone Somehow?
[HTC EVO 3D] Gibsonusa:
They told me at the sprint store it was eater prodded and dust proof. I don't so much care about the water proof part but I work in a metal shop with metal dust and that stuff ruined five of my vibrants. Any other info would be cool.
[HTC EVO 3D] goldt:
I have a question about the OBD, those little flaps by the charging port that you open and close all day long are made out of silicon, but can they last?
[HTC EVO 3D] bmoreboy02:
Probally gona take a little longer then 3 days to figure that out. But they definetely seem better then seidios
[HTC EVO 3D] dimebagdan65:
OBD has a kickstand folks... Let's raise the IQ level in here please lol In summary: bombproof, built to last, includes a belt holster that doubles as a dock with kickstand... Best $50 you can spend on your phone. Period. Now can we close this thread please?
[HTC EVO 3D] Mayonesa:
the only things i dont like about this case are as fallow

1 i like to take my case off when im at home... this is a pain in the ass... Sedio rugged is easy

2 i use a riggers belt.. so its wider than a regular belt.. this holster is too short... doest clip to my belt at the bottom, so it can slide out

but other than that the case is nice i guess, does what it is suppose to do and that is protect the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] jrmatics:
Imo the defender us not bulky at all. Maybe I have big hands. I have the ballistic case for my EVO 4G and that's bulky, especially when it has the rubber on. The defender fits my 3D nicely and it looks good also. Baby hands can hinder ur ability to hold anything....
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Boohoo....
[HTC EVO 3D] firemedic1343:
I agree, I've had Seidio before and it is thin and rips easily.
[HTC EVO 3D] shaun0207:
I I have one and I love it. Haven't even considered getting another case now., I had multiple cases for my Evo, but If I have gotten the defender for the EVO, I don't think I would have gotten any other cases.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
IS this a real post or am I having a nightmare? I have the body glove and love it.
[HTC EVO 3D] bmoreboy02:
Wait a week and tell us if you still love it lol....keep the reciept
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
Well I had the Seidio Surface II on my EVO basically the entire time I had it (got the phone launch day, didn't get the case for about a week) and I never had any problems with it. It's actually still on the phone right now, sitting on top of my dresser.

I think it just has to do with how well you take care of your phone. My EVO 4G was taken care of extremely well, as I'm kind of a nut when it comes to keeping my electronics in pristine condition. I still have my original NES and SNES in perfect condition, and I still clean them off and dust them about once a month (I do still play them lol).

I had planned on getting the Seidio case again for my 3D, but now it looks like I won't be. I went and bought the Platinum case from BB and I really didn't like the quality of it. The silicone felt loose, the plastic felt weak, and there were edges that should have been cleaned up but weren't. I feel like Seidio is slipping in it's quality these days.

I have the Defender on my 3D now (picked it up at BB after returning the Platinum mid-range case) and I really like the overall quality of it. It does feel slightly bulky, but that's only because I'm used to my old EVO with a thin case on it (the Surface is 1mm thick). I'm sure I'll get used to this case soon, but I've only had it since Saturday, and before that I had a TPU case on my 3D, which was a very thin case.

I like the Defender because it does make me feel like it will protect my 3D, but it is slightly bulky compared to thin cases. I think it just comes down to personal prefernce and how much protection you think you're going to need on your device. Honestly I don't think I'll need the protection that the Defender offers, but I would rather have it protected than have the case or screen end up cracking because I accidentally drop it.
[HTC EVO 3D] djwhitey:
QFT

this also

I've already broken the belt clip though (4 days of use). plopped down on a couch, holster caught on the arm, & one side of the clip's "axis?" broke. so right now it stays together if in the "locked kickstand" position, but I can't clip it to my belt =(
[HTC EVO 3D] bmoreboy02:
Take it back where you bought it and get a new one
[HTC EVO 3D] djwhitey:
did just that. sprint store swapped the clip out no hassle.
[HTC EVO 3D] bmoreboy02:
Niceeee hopefully no more broken clips lol
[HTC EVO 3D] mevensen:
The case is a bit bulky, but overall feels good in the hand. I'm still on the fence about it.

One thing I noticed was that it is hard to press the touch screen near the OBD's high "walls" around the screen. This comes into play with the mail programs for selecting multiple messages, etc. Anyone else notice this?
[HTC EVO 3D] djwhitey:
yes, probably the only annoyance i have with the case
[HTC EVO 3D] firemedic1343:
I'm not feeling the high walls. It's my only complaint. I'm actually surprised that I like this case so much. I hated the case they made for the OG EVO 4G. I thought this would be just a holdover for Ballistic or Trident...but now that I have it, I'm tempted to stick with it...
[HTC EVO 3D] hitman618:
I have the defendor and personally i think its the best otterbox i have seen yet. I think its pretty slim for the protection it gives and it looks great. Dont agree take a look at the iphone 4 otterbox case it looks like a brick. If you dont like get a cheap case and hope you dont drop your expensive phone
[HTC EVO 3D] stc1:
"One thing I noticed was that it is hard to press the touch screen near the OBD's high "walls" around the screen. This comes into play with the mail programs for selecting multiple messages, etc. Anyone else notice this?"

Yeah I noticed it too, especially with fat fingers. what I did is pick up a stylus at sprint to try and I liked it a lot when I'm doing more lengthy emails and such. I even made a holder for it by putting a tube along the bottom of the holster. Now I just have to get used to it being there.
[HTC EVO 3D] mevensen:
Good idea. I have a stylus for my tablet, maybe I'll try using it with my 3VO before giving up on the OBD.
[HTC EVO 3D] bdubble:
good luck with that.

I didn't mind the bulk, it was the fact that with the case on people could not hear me good enough to make out what I was saying. I returned it and got the next one down. it seemed to solve the problem mostly, however with the case off 15% improvement easy. I am hoping for a case that will attach to a tripod.
[HTC EVO 3D] mario23:
Two issues I have with it.

The high wall problem that's already been mentioned but also, its not meant to be thrown in a pocket like I often do with my phones because of the rubber outside.

Good looking case but not sure about those two issues...
[HTC EVO 3D] PortableTech:
When you make the comment that many stores sold out, may I ask what other stores besides the manufactures website sell the Defender? I do wish to get one and if I can do it in person all the better. Is this perhaps sold by Sprint directly?
[HTC EVO 3D] bmoreboy02:
I know for sure that bestbuy and sprint both sell them but in baltimore by saturday night all you could find was the commuter.
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
You are right about the commuter. I chose the defender becuase the commuter was terrible in my og EVO.

Believe me, the defender is tough!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
Yeah it feels like it's gripping your pocket and it makes it difficult to remove it from your pocket after. Also it gets lint and dust on it extremely quickly if you put it in your pocket. This thing is a dust magnet, so you almost have to use the belt clip if you want to travel with it and not have to hold it (I usually just grab the phone and place it in my travel dock, so it usually never hits my pocket).
[HTC EVO 3D] firemedic1343:
My Trident Cyclops for EVO 4G was similar. But my Ballistic didn't have any of those problems. But still, I actually like this Defender a lot.
[HTC EVO 3D] bmoreboy02:
It seems like after a day or 2 the rubber dosent attract as much lint and dust.
[HTC EVO 3D] XxDjbluexX:
Yeah that is a good thing. I'm having a problem with dust making its way under the screen protector though. It is really annoying.
[HTC EVO 3D] bmoreboy02:
I had that problem with my ballistic. Normally there was a clip that wasnt snapped all the way in
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
One of the first things I did with my Defender was remove the built-in screen protector because I had a real one already applied to the phone.

Now I can remove the case without having to remove my screen protection from my phone, and I don't have to worry about dust under it.
[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
The defender is not that Bulky at all but the case has a pretty high lip so it takes some getting use to when you're using swype or trace. and the holsters lock is a pain to remove for one hand, i think they should of use a spring clip like the seidio cases
[HTC EVO 3D] Semantics:
I'm an OBD guy through and through. I do have a couple of minor annoyances. They used to come with dust covers for the ear speaker and there isn't one there or on the speaker near the camera, allowing dust to get in. My other issue is that the screen protector at the top doesn't cover the entire screen. Not deal breakers, but minor annoyances for a 50 dollar case.

never ever seen that you can try a factory reset wiping all data or search the forum.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biffsmash:
Basically, you go to a webpage, something with lots of pictures, then scroll around the page quickly, and it changes to a chequer board pattern as you move it until you let go of the screen.

It only happens for me in the stock browser so i'm guessing it is something to do with that.

Don't know how to fix it though.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] john291:
Yes thats the problem
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M.N.M:
I'm sure that that's what is supposed to happen as the stock browser does not load the webpage outside the current frame.

Use Dophin HD, it's free and a million times better ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] rsacipher:
My friend has an iPad with a cover that just protects the screen then folds back to create a stand.

I think this is the one. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Apple&#...lack/2343263.p?id=1218323503891&skuId=2343263

Anything like this for the Transformer?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] xreflection:
Doubt it. It's what makes the ipad 2 unique. Something like that would require you to glue the cover onto the transformer. On the ipad2, everything is connected on by magnets.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] LucJoe:
Wow, that case is $70!!! Crazy.

And yes, if your only criteria is "a cover that just protects the screen then folds back to create a stand" there are plenty of options for the Transformer. A couple which just came out! Check out the threads around here:

1) rooCase (June 30 release): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1134948

2) CaseCrown (out now): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1139820
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] xreflection:
The thing is, it's not even a case. And its priced so high because its an official Apple product.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] slopokdave:
When my wife had an iPad2, I got her one to try out.

A joke of a product.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] yutlin:
I'm no Apple fan but I'd love to have a smart case my Transformer. Saw my buddy's ipad2 smart case and it was super slick.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Billus:
It's pretty mad. Turns of the screen when the cover is down and also lifts up dust particles and clears fingerprints (I think). Fantastic cover.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gibeon:
Shutting off the screen wouldn't be a huge problem on the Transformer, you can easily do it yourself with a magnet (but only when docked). Just grab a magnet and hold it close to the screen, right about the place where the "=+"-hardware-key would hit the screen and it turns off. As soon as you remove the magnet, it'll turn on. Only problem (for now), it works only when docked. When undocked you can turn on the screen with a magnet, but not turn it off. But I guess that's just a software-thingy and that's moddable. ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] frosty5689:
You can always make use of the light sensor. Just make it automaticly turn the screen off when it detects complete blockage. Though that might be a problem if you try to use it in the dark... (might not since there's still "invisible" light (UV, IR etc) at night). Depends on the sensor that's on the TF and how sensitive it is though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gigabitme:
I got this case. It stands, and it can also detach the EEE Pad from the rest of the case. I really like this because, sometimes, I don't feel like hold the whole case or using the stand. Gotta love technological advances :). This company has brown and black. I got my case two days later, and I didn't pay extra in shipping.

Just installed the newest version of Leedroid, rebooted then flashed a new kernel with no problems, flashed a new splashscreen, then when I tried to flash the radio via fastboot.... Nothing???? I dunno why or what I'm doing wrong but radios don't wanna flash anymore? I have used Cyanogen 6 & 7, UltimateDroid & had no problems? I cleared the caches & done full wipe before I flashed Leedroid but I am stumped? Does the radio need to be named something different with LeeDroid? Or stay as PD98IMG.zip it doesn't find it in fastboot & didn't work with the radio flasher? Any ideas people????

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD General] ghostofcain:
Why not flash it long hand? instructions can be found here, it's one problem I find with the all in one tools when they fail you are often left in the dark.
[Desire HD General] deanr1977:
I cant even flash like i use to, by leaving the PD98IMG on the root of my SD card & booting into fastboot! i get nothing???? I tried this before & use to work fine.

I tired doing this via the guide & it fails saying - error: cannot load 'PD98IMG'

This is the commands i tried -

fastboot flash radio PD98IMG

fastboot flash radio PD98IMG radio.img

fastboot flash radio PD98IMG_radio.img

"& the zip has been placed inside of android-sdk-windows/tools folder (unziped)"

Any help with this would be nice, thanks
[Desire HD General] deanr1977:
UPDATED!!!! I have flashed the radio, thanks for the help ;o)

I feel like a right idiot though, after about an hr I noticed that there was a youtube video showing the steps for flashing & after watching it I noticed where I went wrong.... I didn't unzip the radio file! ;o) but should have! Anyway thanks again xda you saved my bacon once again
