Um omg...I have been hoping a case like the white one would show up. Those are my favorite type. YOU'RE MY SAVIOR. I shall kiss the ground you walk on.

Edit: I ordered the black one. :highfive:
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zen-Dragon:
I have been swapping back and forth between these two cases since I got them.

I'll talk about the green and black one first.

It is the more protective of the two and I have been using it more than the white one. It does not add too much bulk but the green rubber does like to catch the inside of the pocket when trying to remove it. I thought the top piece being able to pull away easily was going to be and issue but that has not been the case. I have not really noticed it pulling away. The rubber is soft enough that it does not impede on the buttons. In the dark I can see the red LED behind the green..

The only major issue I have with it is when I was using LMT launcher, the sides are high enough that it got in the way of using it on the sides. I didn't try adjusting LMT much, it was neat but i'm used to the buttons. I wish there was a plug to go over the card slots, I have not had to open it at all so why not cover it.

The white one...

I have used it the least so far. The side that fits on the phone didn't seem to be cut well, a little hard to hit the power button at times. Although it fits tight and did not get in the way of using LMT like the green/black one. The fit when you slid it into the back of the case was loose if the screen was facing in, but with the screen facing out it was very tight at first but started to loosen a little the more I used it. the black felt type of pad was starting to wear and leaving black marks on the white case. It looks dirty now.

The clip was the best part about this case. I liked how it held on my belt or pocket and being able to use it as a stand was great, although if it could have rotated a full 360 that would have been better for charging while using it as a stand.

I have a couple more cases coming and still on the lookout. :cyclops:
[AT&T LG Optimus G] johnbyebye:
I'm quite liking the black.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] droidiac13:
Be very careful with this case. As stated, it's very loose in the holster when positioned to protect the screen (as its supposed to be). Mine fell out and it ended up with a crack and a scratch.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] johnbyebye:
Yeah, I don't like the holster part. I only got it for the snap on cover.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zen-Dragon:
Got 2 more cases in the mail today. 2 more on the way. :D

http://www.ebay.com/itm/13084772072...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Fit on the top and bottom are nice, but the sides are loose and pull away easily and the molded blue piece does not fit very tight.

The material is very slick, so glad its rubber, dropped it twice already. The rubber is very soft and flexible.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/26117921643...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Got this one in yellow. The plastic is very firm, no where near as flexible as the one above. It's also got a high gloss finish to it. The edges are not cut very well, I had to take a razor blade to a few seams and around the camera. The flat black outer clam shell part is pretty flimsy, I don't see it lasting very long, tabs may break after a few times opening and closing it (reminds me of a previous experience with clam shell snapping cases). The top does not fit very tight and there is a noticeable gap.

Pix will come soon.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zen-Dragon:
Sorry for the delay. Kid had the camera for school stuff.

Got another 2 cases as well. So i'll post pics of all 3 - the 4th was as no go

First the No-go...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230944810142

When I ordered this case it was listed for the E970 - I got it and it did not fit because its for the LS970 not the E970. I emailed the seller and they were very happy to refund my purchase and they updated the auction to the proper device.

Up next:

White Rubber outer shell over hard plastic black shell.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/390550828392?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

So far I like this best out of the 3 newer ones.

The white rubber is very soft. Probably the softest of all the cases I have tried yet. Buttons are very easy to push and the charge light glows through the white nicely.

Fit is very nice. It hugs the inner black case well, but its very easy to remove.

The back is held in place by multiple little ridges that it fits over. There is a stand that slides out but seems rather flimsy. There is a deep bezel around the speaker and camera. It does not impede camera view.

Each hole has its own plug that is attached to the rubber.

They fold out of the way easily for access to the port.

Here is the stand when pulled all the way out.

All three pieces of the case fit well together but it does add a lot of bulk to our slim beautiful LOGO...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zen-Dragon:
Now for the blue.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/13084772072...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

I thought I would like this one a lot but it's turned out to be my least favorite. The materials it is made out of bug me. The black rubber is a little sticky and it collects all kinds of lint (as you can see in the pic's) and the blue outer part is slick as hell. After dropping the phone 3 times in one day from it sliding out of my hand I took this case of..

It collects every little speck of dust and hair. What a pain to keep clean.

Fit is ok, but its loose in the areas where there is no blue outer part.

Shine=slick=ick!

Side grip is lacking on the right, left was a nicer fit.

Top seems to fit the best of all the sides.

Why do we need vent holes over the screws?

Ease of install is about the only + for this case...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zen-Dragon:
And the yellow.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/26117921643...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

This rubber case is by far the most firm, its not very flexible and hard to the touch. The flat black outer shell is pretty thin and the clips that hold it together on the side are not very tough.

Three piece case, Hard rubber case with a plastic clam shell outer with very small clips. I don't see taking this off and putting it back on many more times before one breaks.

The cut around some of the holes was terrible. Nothing a razor blade couldn't take care of though.

The rubber on the top of the phone does not fit well and leaves a gap. Its even visible with the black part on: see below.

I like the overall look and feel..... From afar...

The fit of the rubber to the black outer part of the top was poor. They need some kind of clip there to make it fit better

Pushing the buttons with this case was harder than most of the rest, partially because of the stiff rubber but also because they are flush with the black part of the case.

Now if Otterbox would get off their rear and get us one that fits I could quit blowing my lunch money on ebay... :p
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zen-Dragon:
Well, it's been a few weeks with all these cases.

Figured I would update with the cases I use and actualy like.

The black hard case with the white rubber outer was good if I didnt have to put my phone in my pocket, if I did the rubber would pull away from the edges as I pulled it out. So i was contantly putting the outer part back one before using the phone. That got old quick.

The black rubber w/ blue outer was just too slick of material and collects so much dirt and dust. Also after repeated drops from just losing my grip on it I put that case to the side as well.

The yellow with the black outer snap case is just too stiff, it makes using the buttons dificult. So it's not being used either.

So far I keep going back to the Green and Black case I first reviewed, so far it's the best fit and protection out of the ones I have. I just wish it had a stand like a few of the others. When I do need a stand I end up throwing on the White 2 piece hard case since its so easy to put on.

Hope this helps anyone looking. :cool:

My Disztronic Inside a LG-E973 Flip Case

I wanted a flip case and already had the Diztronic one on so i just glued the Diztronic inside the flip case for the Sprint/International version, and it works like a charm. I also had to cut open the Camera and flash cutout a little further around the endges and messed up because i didnt use the right tool.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jammol:
Thank you for your reviews and pictures of the cases. I have the yellow and black model for my Nexus 4 and just ordered the same model for my LGOG. Couldn't really stand the other cases that I saw because I have used those models on different phones. The one I just ordered is the best one for me so far. Once again thank you.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] besweeet:
I've been thinking about getting that case, but it seems a bit bulky. How much thicker does it make everything?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zen-Dragon:
As far as bilk goes...

The thinnest case would be the White w/ holster.

Next would be the Black/Green, Black/Blue, Black/Yellow - they add a little bilk but still easy to get in and out of your pocket.

Most bulky is the Black/White rubber one. Makes the phone feel like a big squishy brick... (reminds me of the first gen otterbox for my inspire)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mckev24:
Case

Thanks for your case reviews, Zen-Dragon. I've been looking for another case for my LGOG and haven't decided which one I want to go with. I currently have one like your blue/black one, but mine is black/black. It fits my phone really well, except for the rubber on the front/sides. It doesn't pull much, and haven't had problems with it catching in my pocket. The hard outer shell on mine is "rubberized", and adds a little bit of grip. However, the "rubber" on the front corners of the outer shell is starting to wear off. I've had this case about 3 weeks. The charger and earbud openings are aligned well. But I'm with you on the holes for the screws. What's the point??? Even if you were going to unscrew them, you wouldn't do it with the cover on! Makes no sense to me. Other than the "rubberized" parts of the outer shell wearing off already, I really like this case. I just wish Otterbox would make a case. I contacted them when I was shopping for a new phone and they said they have no plans to make a case for the AT&T version. Oh well. Hopefully someone will make a better case. In the meantime, I'm content with my case I have now.

On another subject, I haven't gotten a screen protector yet. I bought a Zagg but took it off after about 5 minutes. It felt sticky and wasn't very smooth. If you looked at my phone at just barely off head on, there was some kind of wavy look to it and distorted the screen. I decided that since the screen is supposed to be scratch resistant, I'm gonna go without a screen protector. So far I've had good luck and haven't scratched the screen, even after my car keys hit it rather hard.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Zen-Dragon:
I hear Zagg makes an "HD" version that doesn't have the orange-peel feeling that the regular one has, I saw it at bestbuy mobile in the mall and they wanted over 30 bucks for it. I opted for the Realook which is only 11 bucks.

I have a few deep scratched on the Realook already, but they were my own fault. I forgot which pocket my phone was in while working on the motorcycle and slid a couple screwdrivers and other tools in the pocket with the phone of course. Glad I had it on there. The scratches don't get in the way too much but when I get the chance ill probably order another realook.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jaimesilva:
What do you think of these ones ?

I live in Colombia and the E970 (or any other LGOG) has not been introduced in this market so I can

not find accessories for it. Getting them as I got my phone will be expensive since I'll have

to pay for shipping and nationalization taxes. Fortunately, my mother in law is coming from

NJ next week so I'll ship her two or three cases and a couple of screen protectors.

I'm looking mainly for basic protection for when it fall from my hands or from a table, it will

not work under harsh environments. Secondly I'm looking for aesthetics, this is a beautiful phone

and I want to keep it that way. Since I carry the phone on my pants pocket I want a case that does

not add much bulk.

I don't have any experience buying cases so I'll like to know the opinion of the forum members

about the following cases I've been looking on ebay.

Thanks in advance for your comments.

This is my favorite so far:

Also looks nice:

The most expensive, is it worth? :

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Diztronic-A...731298?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a7cbaf8a2

I also found a site named empirecase.com with a selection of cases for the E970: http://www.empirecase.com/Optimus-G-ATT_c_3843.html

What do you think of those ?

Thanks.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Mramos860:
Diztronic is the one for you. Worth the 12 bux

The Diztronic case is your best bet, Its TPU so it will protect it from falls and scrapes, and its the least bulky, The first two you have pictured are gonna be too bulky for you. I have the diztronic case and I love it. Not as good as an Otterbox for drops, but the Diztronic has saved my phone from a few falls. The one draw back to it is the lip isnt too raised so if your drop it face down from like 5 feet Ima say you might have a broken screen. The Body glove one from ATT is nice, its has 2 layers of protections and it adds a little more bulk than the Diztronic but i feel its worth it. The cases you pictured up there have rubber on the outside and that gets stuck in your pockets when trying to pull it out quickly. The Dzitronic is a smooth TPU rubber and wont have that problem.

---------- Post added at 07:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ----------

Wait im sorry, the second one u pictured is just a plastic case that wont do crap to protect it from falls, just scratches. The second case I dont reccommend, but the first one is comparable to an otterbox commuter. Oh and the one drawback to the Diztronic is the LED indicator is covered so u wont be able to see the light. I just cut a whole out of it. The Body glove case has the cutout over the LED
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jaimesilva:
Two days ago I received the Diztronic and the first case I pictured.

First I tried the Diztronic but is so thin I though it wont be of much help in case of a drop so I switched to the other case, the phone now is bulky and I do not like how the holes for the mic, headphones, etc. look, they are irregular, not well rounded, however the phone seems more secure in this case and in general it looks good.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] mopo01:
I got this in black. I agree that the fit when the glass is being protected is very loose and it can fall out. I heated up the clips for a few seconds with a heat gun, although a hair dryer should do the trick, and with my fingers pushed it in to make a tighter fit and now it does not budge
[General Questions and Answers] bookface:
Hi all, I come to you all in this time of great need. I have in my possession a LG Optimus Net or LGL45C as its know technically.

I started to suffer from problems from gapps resulting from uninstalling the Google Talk app(yes doing this in retrospect was incredibly stupid). After failing to resolve my problem when trying to re-install it, I decided to take the easy way and just do a factory reset and start from scratch. Little did I know what was to meet me. I was given the "Touch to the android to begin" screen like so many others, but it was not meant to be that simple. I would touch the android, and it would light gleefully but it would not reveal to me the next step and sit there motionless. So I proceeded to the next logical step, touching each corner in succession to skip the setup process. But no matter how many times I repeated it, nothing came of it. Next I booted into recovery mode(stock I never bothered to install CWM, another one of my mistakes) and did another factory reset, clear cache, etc. This too did not work. And I thought, there was always installing CWM through ADB where then I can then just flash to a stock ROM I downloaded. But Alas!! USB debugging some how got disabled and it was all fruitless. A little google-fu later I came across a method to flash .kdz using obscure LG utilities. With renewed hope I followed the steps but to no avail. Now I come to you stranger, and plead you in somehow help me in recovering some use of this phone. I have exhausted all my options and I hope someone out there read this and comes in my time of need. Sorry for the long block of text :silly::silly::silly::silly:
[General Questions and Answers] VanessaBTLette:
Having the same problem as you, bookface.

I couldn't install CWM from the links provided in another post, all lead to a 404 Dropbox page. This sucks. And when I tried to use the installer from Play, I got a dialog saying it's not compatible. Some would say to ignore it, it would be fine...

But if something doesn't feel right, don't do it, I've always been told...

So, I was rooted, but phone started acting funny. Done a factory reset. Since I didn't have CWM, I thought it would clear that mess up.

Nope, almost all apps crash. I'm lucky that at least the browser, Gmail, and music apps work, but everything else, including Google Play Store, all crash upon launch.

Net10's forum is a lame excuse as a "forum." Seems like TracFone employees have NO concept of how a forum works. I looked at there for the same issue, and they rather take software/hardware issues to private messages?

I have NO computer, my hubby's friend who helps him says "You have an Android tablet, that is a computer!" Technically, yes and no. Since I can't root that thing, it's useless. (If you want to know, Polaroid PMID709 4.1 with Rockchip RK29xx, and impossible to root fully, it's "semi-rooted".)

And I'm lost. I and my hubby need this phone to work. Because we need it fpr work (our jobs). And I'm getting sick of TracFone screwing up Android ROMs. :(

Please help!
[General Questions and Answers] tobytenacious:
youve made much more headway than i. trying to help my neighbor with his. he set a lockscreen password on his lgl34c and then promptly forgot it. :confused:

so upon a bit of research, this model is a doozie to work with. i had intended to overdeliver by flashing him a ROM that might allow some hotspotting and the like. upon closer inspection, i dont believe that i will be able to do that. at best a towelroot...

but ONLY IF i can get past this lockscreen. i've tried to factory reset by:

1) removing/replacing battery then holding vol down+power and waiting for LG splashscreen then releasing power (still holding vol down ) and then re-pressing(holding) power again

2) turning phone off and holding home+vol up+power and holding 30-40 sec

ive repeated both methods many many times, and these are the only methods that i have seen described in my google searching. in fact, yours is the most advanced post i have found yet.

how can i factory reset this phone without access to the settings menu? :eek:
[Nexus 4 Accessories] jawxin:
I've found a mini-usb to hdmi connector so you can plug in your Nexus 4 to your TV. I know Miracast is out there but I haven't read anything good about it yet for the Nexus 4, and this thing works really well. It's the slimport SlimPort® SP1002. High Speed micro USB (male) to HDMI (female) connector cable (4.26cm x 2.21cm x 0.99cm)-Supports Full HD and 3D at 1080p @60Hz, 24bpp.

And when I get the LG wireless charger from Puremobile, I'll never run out of batteries while streaming to the TV!

Unfortunately this drains the battery faster than you can charge it. I've been using this set-up for months.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] clockcycle:
Link?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] theabsurdman:
faster than you can charge it?

Have you tried using a 2+ Amp charger?

the slimport adaptor is a very desirable accessory for sure; others (which i have acquired so far) include:

- to make up for the N4's weak battery, an external battery pack. i have the anker astro3 which can supply 10,000 mAh @ 2+ Amps -- never run out of juice again!

- to make up for lack of expandable storage, a wireless drive. i have the tiny pqi air drive which accepts sd cards up to 64gb.

- i also have an adonit jot stylus for precision note taking.

- Bluetooth keyboard. i have the igo stowaway which works perfectly.

- Bluetooth mouse. not been able to make one of these work as yet -- hopefully after 4.2.2 !

- to make up for low headphone volume, the tiny fiio headphone amp and finally, an x-mini II capsule speaker (or 2, for stereo!).

anything i've missed?

Are you talking about using the wireless charger like the OP mentioned? Or do you mean even plugging directly into the adapter?

Also, what's the power on the charger you're using?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aelithus:
I attempted to flash a different ROM to my nexus one. I was doing just fine until the third to last step. It was to copy the zip onto my SD card. I accidentally copied the wrong files. I also messed up a couple steps before that when I missed the "make a backup of the recovery image". So I've got a nexus one with no operating system and no recover image. But I can get to the boot loader, and recovery. I Have 4EXT recovery touch. And I cant turn on USB debugging so I can get to the files on my sd card to put the right operating system file on the SD card.

Is there any way I can access the SD card with my computer while the phone is in recovery? Without being able to turn on USB debugging.
