[T-Mobile LG G2x] PhantomRampage:
It's hard to explain, but the buttons are made with another material so it's very comfortable to push the buttons. It feels better than without a case actually. Ill see if i can take a picture for you

-edit-

photos attached
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ericalanMICHAEL:
I bought this case the day I bought my phone, about two months ago. It's literally the best case I've had for any device. It isn't a hard case so it feels flexible in the hand. But it isn't a gel case, either, and feels sturdy enough to withstand. I recommend this case for sure. 9/10.

It's a weird polymer material. I've never felt another case like this one. The buttons are as easy to press as the phone naked. If its like $7 as the link said, I'd pick it up. I spent $14 on mine at WalMart and would gladly do it again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Neejay:
hmm...I just ordered like 2 other $2-3 ones from ebay to test them out (literally yesterday or the day before - haven't even gotten them yet), but as soon as I saw this thread and the pictures, I bought it. lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PhantomRampage:
Cool :] Hopefully you like it as much as I do
[T-Mobile LG G2x] servbotx:
I just got a Seidio Surface case from Amazon and it's by far the best case I have had for the G2x so far. I have a Trident Aegis case, which to me adds way too much bulk, but this one actually makes it nice to hold.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DannyR83:
That is a nice looking case, is it soft plastic?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PitbullVMX:
Yeah that case looks nice. I like the ringke case, I have come to just accept the corner cut out, still urks me but I'm over it. Its probably the best case I have owned, but with that said, it still has flaws. The sides are loose, and I'm really glad the case doesn't collect dust and lint but the camera lens which is exposed collects A LOT. as well as the corners of the screen
[T-Mobile LG G2x] servbotx:
It is the same "soft touch" as the battery door, but over the entire case, and is lined with felt.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
Great case, I use it, yes the buttons are much easier to use than a normal TPU case. Its a steal at those eBay prices.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] barqers:
Ignore my ignorance but, why are the corners cut out on all the cases?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] :
because theyre made for the O2X and the antenna for that phone is where the cutout is
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thegreenfamily04:
Here are a few pics of the case I just got (At the mall) I'm not sure what brand but it fits nice and makes my phone feel better, at least to me. This was an O2x case (Corner cut out) but I don't think it looks bad.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PhantomRampage:
That case sucks. Its the TPU Fusion case, which I had high hopes for since i loved it on my mt4g, but its just not that great.

Have you noticed that the sides don't really wrap around the phone and just open up yet?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gman87:
This one is pretty good IMO

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/cr/B0053FPYOO/ref=aw_d_cr_wireless?qid=1320552613&sr=8-41

Contrary to the pics up that shows an example of the case mine doesn't have the corners on the top cut out
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Neejay:
+1 for the Body glove case. Perfect fitment, buttons are easily pressed like there is no case. Nice texture/grip too.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noobletsausecakebbq:
Yeah. Trident aegis is the best case. It make my phone bulletproof
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Karala:
thegreenfamily04, I saw those cases on eBay when I was looking for a nice case. They were about 3 dollars on eBay in a variety of colors. I thought the design looked nice but they all had a hole in the top from the look of the photos on eBay, and it appears yours does as well. I was trying to avoid that so I scratched those off the list.

I thought the Trident case was too bulky. Ringke has the hole in the top and was more expensive. Seidio was an option but I thought I'd try a few cheaper cases first figuring at least one out of two would work out.

I ended up with these two:

ebay.com/itm/280755535992 (I got grey & I can't find these cheaper on eBay even from sellers not offering extra stuff so no idea why this seller hasn't sold more!)

ebay.com/itm/220878655199 (Can't seem to find any other seller with this case)

This one was in the running:

ebay.com/itm/300562150053 (It's quite similar to the second case I bought)

Lack of links due to forum regulations. Copy and paste and add www to see them on eBay.

Personally, I like the 3 dollar one that comes with a cleaning cloth and screen protector (not that great but maybe as a backup if something happens to a good screen protector) but both cases are nice and fit perfectly with no issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] XxTripleBeamxX:
I purchased the Body Glove case from my local Tmo store about 2 weeks ago and it has to be the best case I've used. Felt lining, rubber type backing which makes it more comfortable to hold and it takes a bit of force to get the case off once its on so that comforts me that if I ever drop my phone the case won't pop off like a lot of two piece cases do.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ultrawombat:
The Trident Aegis case is very good.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Zenroy:
I also recommend this affordable tpu case with no corner cut out.

Smoke Argyle TPU Case for T-Mobile G2x / LG Optimus 2x

In my experiance the case is easy enough to get off and the cut outs are perfect! It provides decent protection with only adding a small amount of bulk.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] barqers:
I just ordered the 3 TPU cases (smoke, clear, blue) with 3 screen protectors for $7.95 USD with free shipping. Seemed like a steal to be honest, I was only interested in the clear/smoke but I guess having 3 isn't a negative thing. Will post back and let you guys know what it's like when I receive it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] thegreenfamily04:
No problems with the case so far other than one thing, if you have a SQUARE (LG Data/Charge cable) head it won't plug all the way in unless you trim it up a bit around the port and yes I am noticing that the Volume Buttons are causing the case to not wrap around fully by 1 RCH or (Rats **** Hair :D) on that side only.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hiryuu:
Just picked up the Body Glove Grasp case and it's fantastic. Perfect cutouts, the buttons are easy to press on, and it feels great in the hand.

I'm new therefore not allowed to post in marketplace. I got 2 brand new in box.
[Captivate General] Captain_Nero:
Yes people do. I've actually wanted to get a second one for a while.

I am not amused by your phones performance
[Captivate General] erbsmokah:
New ones in the box seem to go for around 300 on ebay still.
[Captivate General] Ends:
So i'll sell mine for $250 shipped. $475 for the pair. They are att&t. But also one of the easiest phones ever to unlock. I'm glad to do it for anyone that wants it done before shipping. At the moment they've never been out the box.

Would it matter? I'm also open to trade. I'll gladly give them both away for an sgs2
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
I bet you would. Sgs2 on Amazon goes for about $550+. You said you would let them go for $475/pair. Yeah, I can see why you would do that.
[Captivate General] mbc663:
Anyone that buys from this guy is a compete fool. No offense buddy, just looking out for the members. There's a reason u need a certain amount of posts to list in the market place. Lots of people getting ripped lately. Sorry :) buyers beware
[Captivate General] Ends:
Not sure how to respond. Because your absolutely correct. No one has any reason to trust me what so ever. And theres no way to change that. But my options are this or ebay. They have lost tons of value as it is because of the length of time I've had them. I'm sure I could get 500 on ebay, but by the time I pay their fee and paypal s fee for the money transfer and the shipping cost I might have 425 left. If you've sold on ebay then u know. And we all know what they cost so the thought of selling a brand new galaxy s for $212.50 seemed crazy. Wasn't sure what to do. I dont need the money but they'll be worth nothing if I continue to hold on to them. Its ok if u dont trust me.
[Captivate General] mediumsteak:
Haha you clearly don't the joke.

wealthy nigerian prince scams are ebay scams

:D
[Captivate General] Ends:
Ha. I didn't know. I'm sorry I came off wrong. I was just trying to get rid of a couple extra phones. I know nothing about "scamming". Can we just delete this post? Its went completely in the wrong direction. Maybe ebay was my best option. Irony was I never thought about selling them in the forum until I noticed the"marketplace"
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
Try Amazon.
[Captivate General] faustiano:
Why not try Craigslist?
[Captivate General] OwenW71:
Just bought a second one for my wife. I'll keep these until the Galaxy Note has been out for a month or two. Loving that 5.3 inch SAMOLED. No reason to go to the SGS2 that I can see. It is awesome, but not that much better than the Captivate.

Sent from my Cappy using Swype and my finger.
[Captivate General] erbsmokah:
Its twice as good as the captivate ;)

But seriously... since when is there a fee for using ebay? I have sold a ton of stuff on ebay and never had to pay any fees..
[Captivate General] Ends:
Sure there is. I havnt sold in a couple years(another reason why I shy away, so much has changed) but i remember paying an extra .25 just to have a pic posted during search. Extra charges if you use alotta pictures. And the charge just to post, and the extra if you sell your item. Things of that sort. My accounts havnt been activated in a while. I went back to paypal the other day just to update that accout. New bank and such. Because i bought a few accesories for the captivate I use now. If the person thats interested perhaps lives in southern VA or northern NC maybe we could meet. I live on the line midway (Halifax County, VA) Or if there is someone you really trust on the forum I could send the item to the first. And when they get it they can let you know. Then I could recieve my payment. Of course it would have to be someone of high standing. I would hate to get ripped off myself. Just know I'm not here to scam anyone. I could take pics of the items if it helps. At least you'd know I actually have them. Beside a printout of this post so you know i didnt just copy a picture from the web. I'm trying here guys. I'm an honest person. I dont care if I sell them now. I guess now I'm just trying to build a little trust.

[HTC Sensation] TheEyes:
Anyone know of a good holster for the Sensation that does not also require a bumper case? I was looking at the Seidio Active holster, and I liked the way it looked (glass-in, etc), but frankly I don't want to cover up my Sensation in some fugly plastic-and-gel combo, and the Active holster apparently needs the Active case to go with it. Are there any others out there?

[Galaxy S II General] shadowofdarkness:
No it isn't, the default is a .qmg file. So just delete the .zip file and it should revert to using the default.

Also remember to wipe the phone of all your personal data.

[Nook Color General] efaden:
Hey,

So I know there are a bunch of ROMs around for the Nook Color, but I was curious if anyone had a recommendation for a stable one for my wife's Nook Color? I was looking at Phiremod (both CM7 and MIUI Versions), MIUI, and CM7. So far the problem I am running into with all of them is the screen resolution/density as well as the sleep of death. What is a good stable ROM I can run on there? I don't need bells and whistles.... just something stable that can run android apps (including the Nook and Kindle Apps). Thanks.

-Eric
[Nook Color General] kcls:
I'm on nightly 212 (CM7.1 stable will work just as well) and it has.been.by far the most stable ROM I've ever used for any device. I'm running it from the SD Card, and I would surely recommend it.
[Nook Color General] davidr415:
I agree.. but be sure to notice in several other posts.. the brand and type of microSD card DOES matter.. Use a Sandisk class 2 or 4.

Before I got a Sandisk, it wasn't very stable. Afterwards.. like a rock.
[Nook Color General] markusrow:
I have had my Wife's NookColor on MiUi for more than a month. Not one single hang or freeze.

Recovery CWM 3.2.0.1

ROM MIUI v 1.9.23 from MIUI.US

Kernel Dalingrin-OC-emmc-090111

Nook Color Tweaks Dalingrins NookColor Tweaks Audio Setup very useful.

Swype Beta Installer

From the Market:-

zMooth Lite to replace the included "Button Savor" App. Which I leave minimized, because it is difficult to hack out.

Titanium Backup

Rom Manager

Opera Mobile Browser

Replacement Apps from Market for Notes, Pictures, Music, Performance, Synchronizing of Stuff, document Editors, Kindel, Google Books etc.

Interface Launcher has Widgets, Folders and customize-able task-bar.

I had a little trouble during the first setup stage while familiarizing with "Button Savior". In particular the x key means hide the virtual keys, which get in the way of the keyboard. These Buttons serve as virtual "Android Buttons" The virtual buttons slide in from the right edge of the screen. They include all the usual Android Buttons. on, Back Button, Search Button, etc. Actually re-started re-flashed once I got the hang of it. and had no problems. Getting past the stage of entering data into the first few fields was the only frustration. After one installs zMooth you can ignore Button Savior and let it remain minimized, or kill it with a automated task killer.

The Rom has Working Bluetooth with an add-on to Astro File Manager, and also most of the other file managers.

I must have 25 apps of which I use 10 quite often. So far no problems with resolution etc.

Updated Market, and Cloned the whole thing with nandroid backup so that my wife's and my Nooks are identical. Only problem with this is that the Market thinks the two devices are one. It all works, but anything I download from Web Based Market via Web, goes to both devices.

If you know how to redo the Market initialization steps, to trigger a new signature creation step for each device I would be grateful.
[Nook Color General] BethyM:
I like running CM7 from the EMMC -- I find it's the fastest and most stable. I tried MIUI but I had issues with it and missed my app drawer. I use to run CM7 from the sd card and find running it straight from memory is more reliable.

She's going to love having a tablet! So much more than ereader... love my Nook!
[Nook Color General] SCrid2000:
EMMC CM7 had been the best in my experience as will.
[Nook Color General] Fekish:
Thanks for the info.

Just a question, what exactly does Kernel Dalingrin-OC-emmc-090111, does on the device?

As i installed yesterday the CM7, after being on Manual Nooter, and i was wondering what are the benefits of Dalingrin, and if i have any implications if i install this through recovery...
[Nook Color General] markusrow:
You are most welcome.

All ROMs include / require a Kernel (foundation layer - a Linux kernel). This is the software that is specifically tied to the particular hardware and bridges between the hardware and the body of the ROM. Current CM7.1 and MIUI both include / use Dalingrin's Kernel, which is in turn derived from B&N's kernel. MIUI is a branch of CM7.1 with work in creating a consistent and pleasing interface and removing aspects not required for this platform. The Dalingrin Kernel link is included so that you can follow what Dalingrin offers / updates in the future and flash it independently of the ROM if you wish to do so. Also Dalingrin and CyanogenMod developers deserve credit and thanks for the work in developing CM7 which MIUI have leveraged for their ROM.

The implication is that you can change / update Kernels for the NOOKColor (independently with care), (i.e. flash kernel over the delivered ROM Kernel,) and Dalingrin's Tweaks App works with the Rom and you can donate to Dalingrin by purchasing his App. Enable Under Volting save battery, and Over Clocking improve performance. Also as stated before, very very useful for setting the Audio gains in the best possible combination.
[Nook Color General] ponyboy82:
FYI, Dalingrin's kernel is included in the nightlies (has been for a while), so if you installed CM7 it's already there. It opens up a lot of features as well as the ability to Overclock for extra performance. It seems like most everyone has OC'd up to the max allowed by default which is 1.2ghz I think. It definitely makes the Nook a lot snappier with little trade-off.
[Nook Color General] oppy:
Another vote for CM7.1 stable on eMMC. Solid as a rock.
[Nook Color General] nismopc:
Did I miss something? I was always under the impression that you should not use anything less than a Class 6 SD card, especially if your running the ROM from the SD instead of EMMC.

Class 2/4 are too slow... :confused:
[Nook Color General] ponyboy82:
When using the SD to run the OS off of, the random access speed is what makes the difference. There were tests down before, but iirc the Sandisk cards showed the best random-access speed despite having a slower class (which measures sequential writes).
[Nook Color General] nismopc:
Not to get off topic, but does that apply to higher class Sandisk as well? Basically, a Class 6 Sandisk will outperform a Class 2/4 Sandisk in the Nook? I can't recall seeing the tests, this is why I ask.
[Nook Color General] k8108:
You have received a lot of good advice here and I'm just going to throw my two cents' worth in.

I am a 53 year old woman who has tried every rom out there. I have settled on the Miui rom. #1 because it just looks nicer to my eyes than CM7. Fonts and icons are larger and 'prettier.' #2 because this rom has the most zip on my nook.

Right now I'm running 1.9.23. A week ago I restored my Nook to stock, installed Miui and installed my apps from the market - not from a backup and I have had zero freezes or SODs. I run over 150 apps, use launcher pro, with Facebook, gmail, calendar and pulse news reader updating frequently.

I also went into the spare parts app and set my wifi to sleep never.

Everyone has their favorite, but Miui wins my vote hands down.
[Nook Color General] ponyboy82:
I think this is the test I was thinking of... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1102704

If I'm reading it correctly, the class doesn't seem to make a huge difference. I would think higher classes would be faster for at least some operations though.
[Nook Color General] efaden:
Thanks for the info all. I just installed CM7 Stable on hers... seems to be running nicely.
[Nook Color General] markusrow:
Currently MIUI gets my vote.

MIUI 1.9.23 with a clean install and app load was a huge improvement.

Cyanogen is constantly moving forward. I will try it from time to time, using Nandroid backup and restore to flip back - update - then see what I am missing.

It is a pitty that the two cannot coexist in a complementary way. No winners no loosers. I don't think that MIUI makes its features and customizations available so cannot be incorporated (on a selective merit basis) back into Cyanogen. They are not open like Cyanogen. So in the end Cyaongen may well win base on its support from community.
[Nook Color General] ponyboy82:
Awesome. By the way, despite the name, the nightlies are often very stable these days. I forget when the fixes were put in, but there have been a bunch of improvements including better battery life while sleeping since one of the main "stable" milestone builds. If you find some issues, it may be worth trying a nightly.

Also, you should backup your rom using Rom Manager and/or apps using nandroid or titanium backup. That has saved my butt a few times.

Good luck!
[Nook Color General] MISRy:
A few posts down is one titled [GUIDE] CM7.1... I followed that one from a factory restored firmware 1.0.0 and am more than pleased. I would give that a shot if I were you. Seems very stable and you shouldn't have to worry about upgrading for a while.
