[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Psynotix:
So I have spent quite a bit of time searching around for some good cases for the Pixel 6 Pro , I bought one of the soft silicone official Google ones, a Dbrand Grip, and a Ghostek Nautical Slim waterproof case. The Google one is a complete waste of money and offers no real protection in my opinion. The one I have had my phone in since I bought it a couple days after getting my P6P is the Ghostek Nautical Slim, and let me tell you, I absolutely love this case!! Offers every protection you could ask for to keep your expensive investment safe. It's not bulky at all in comparison to other water resistant offerings on the market and even some standard rugged cases. Once in a while I'll get a failure to read on the fingerprint reader, but I would say it's maybe 1 in every 50 tries, to me that's negligible. Long story short, the Ghostek Nautical Slim is a case I definitely recommend for the P6P! Got mine off Amazon for $39.99 and was at my door 2 days later.

So my question to all of you is what other cases do you all use that you absolutely love and swear by!!! I'll post an Amazon link to the Ghostek Nautical Slim and encourage you all to do the same if possible!!

There are tons of other threads in this section that mention case in the title, but my answer is short and simple. My wife and I always use OtterBox Defender.

I can't stand those cheap built-in screen protectors. They all have a dot matrix and the Newton ring effect. But glad you like it and you're satisfied with it. Dbrand grip with the leather skin and Whitestone combo have been treating me well.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] truckerdewd:
This what I have and it's great. I also got one for my OnePlus 9 Pro and for my Samsung Galaxy z Fold3

Spigen Thin Fits with DBrand Skins on the back are my go to cases for the 6 Pro.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] MrBelter:
Spigen Tough Armor.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] fuadhdmini:
Rhinoshield for me
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Psynotix:
So wait , u put the Dbrand skins on the case itself or the back of your phone?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] nds850:
Spigen Think Fit. I prefer if over Google's.

I had the Parallax for a Galaxy Note 10 I used to have and absolutely loved that case! Just felt so good in the hand
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] gpvecchi:
Parallax!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] phillymade:
I got the Zagg Havana
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
Also Team Parallax

It's just a shame that it doesn't have the recess ("hole") for a cord like the Caseology Vault has
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ajsmsg78:
I put the DBrand Skins on the back of the cases themselves. They fit great on the Spigen Slim Fit. I also have a DBrand skin on the back of the phone.

Incipio for me .....semi rigid with little raised stars in the sides for grip.

Is wireless charging working fine? Also how strong are magsafe magnets? Can you attach phone for example to car holder and is it stable?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] elwuero:
on my anker wireless charger i have no problems. MagSafe is not super strong but is nice and does work. i don’t have a base in my car, so can’t say only that there are a lot of MagSafe car holders out there. maybe look at amazon reviews for some of them. i have a MagSafe video cage and i adapted a magsafe mount on a dji om4 and i have no fear when using either.

Spigen Tough Armor​
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
I'm a Spigen fan. I have the Liquid Air Armor on my 6. I usually put Rugged Armor on my phones on my phone, but not this time. Needed something a bit more modern. I always go for that spartan matte black Diztronic look.

This is one of those phones that deserve a clear case. I just can't though. Yellowing is unavoidable, fingerprints suck, ad the lack of rear webbing suggests less drop protection. I'm kinda mad at Ringke for not making a Fusion X case for this phone.

And yes, every case brand comes from common Chinese warehouse designs. But warranties and shipping methods do matter.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Z0ld3n:
I really want to buy magsafe case instead of using some sort of glued ring but am hesitant to throw away $45 if magsafe won't be strong enough to hold Pixel inside the car :( I'm searching for confirmation that this case is usable in the car since I can't find Moment case in Poland and they charge $40 for shipment. Thanks though! :)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] elwuero:
that's tough, a lot of money. the nice thing about peak design cases are that they have the MagSafe plus the custom mount hole. for bouncy rides like a bicycle or motorcycle they have locking mounts. don’t know if you could incorporate one of those mounts with your car.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] lottarake:
Glad you posted this. I remember hearing about their case, but forgot about it over time. Just placed an order for it and the wallet/stand. Been using the Mous case and their stand, but having Magsafe compatibility will be an added bonus versus being stuck with proprietary only options.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] elwuero:
i really like it. i have the same wallet/stand. also have the mous case. the mous is a little thicker and possibly more protective but i wanted the magsafe compatibility.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] lottarake:
Oh, that's great to hear. It being slimmer is fantastic to know. I do like the Mous case, but I'm a fan of slim designs, so any reduction in size I'm all for. Depending on how nice this peak case is, I may invest in their charging stand. Noticed they're overall cheaper than Mous too, which is a welcomed bonus.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Shack01:
I THOUGHT I bought a P6P, but ended up with a P6, but that's another story.

Having said that... The Otterbox Defender is my go to case! I drive a semi-truck for a living and demand a case that can mount to my belt. I've had Otterbox Defender cases since my first Samsung (S4) 10 years ago and, most recently, bought one for my P6.

HOWEVER! The Otterbox Defender, DOES NOT WORK with the Pixel Stand (2nd gen). Well, it does, IF you strip off the outer case - which kind of defeats the purpose. When I bought the Pixel, I decided to replace the old Samsung 'puck,' to take advantage of the higher charging rates offered by the Pixel stand. I'm not amused!

So my question, for all of you folks that recommend other cases, will they attach to my belt, will they offer the protection of an Otterbox Defender, and will they work with the Pixel Stand?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] robjective:
I'm the same. I have to have a belt clip and I prefer one with a spring loaded latch on the top, rather than on the side, like the OtterBoxes.

I've got the Encased Falcon Armor for my P6P and it's working great for me. It does work with the Pixel Stand. Looks like there's a P6 version as well.

It feels about as drop protected as you could ask for. At least for my P6P version, it is compatible with the Whitestone Dome screen protector.

It feels a little bulky, but not as bad as OtterBox on previous phones.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] CPngN:
I got a Moment MagSafe - was supposed to be a Christmas gift but two months too long for that! WOW. It's VERY similar so one I found on Amazon for like $15, only the back is more rigid and it has a MagSafe ring in there. Oh and at the bottom, it's more open and there are 2 spots where you could loop a write band through. Not a bad idea if you're taking photos on a trip where losing your grip means losing your phone forever! And of course, you can fit some small fancy lenses in front of your already expensive Pixel to make it more .. something. I don't know... seems silly on this phone to be honest, but the MagSafe part of it works great! We have a Belkin and generic magsafe car chargers and it sticks well without being impossible to remove. While $40-$50 is too much for an ok case with only 2 / 4 edges protected on the front and a metal ring in the back, it was a luxury worth keeping for me. Magsafe charging in the car is a big win.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] TheInitialCommand:
Is that the normal phone skin applied to the Spigen Thin Fit? Or is it specifically for that case?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ajsmsg78:
It's the normal phone skin.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] DirtyPISTOLA:
I just got a new Casetify case for the P6P its pretty dang nice.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cpufrost:
Naked?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cpufrost:
I got one of these coming Friday:

Amazon.com

I despise bulk, but this phone feels like a sheet of glass that came out of a tumbler. It's WAY too slippery to hold safely for my hands!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] bkrickles:
I have this case and it's really nice. Keeps phone slim but really hard to remove.

I've been using the dbrand grip more because of that.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] PhilipTD:
Thanks for posting. Did the camera skins not fit, or you just opted not to get them? Also, what made you get the Spigens and add the skins rather than get skinned DBrand Grips?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ajsmsg78:
The camera skin has cutouts for the camera lenses so it wouldn't go on the case. The Dbrand Grip cases are way too bulky to me. I like my cases a bit slimmer.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] PhilipTD:
Got it, thanks

View attachment 5602907 these are the cases I have for 6 pro
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] sronweb:
I don' t have yet the phone (I should buy it soon, waiting for some little price decrease for the 256Gb size) but the main concern is about the curved screen which I don't like and I consider pointless and just a weakness for phone itself. I'm following this topic because I look for any case might basically enough thickness, but shape, able to "hide" the curves on the sides. Some of the cases in this thread as Otterbox or Spigen is able to give this type of experience, so the P6P might look more similar to the non curved phone as the P6? Thanks
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] rojiblanko14:
I had to skin my 2 cases since I don't see any good options...I wish rhino shield made that awesome bumper case for the P6P
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] liggerz87:
Iv also ordered this camera lense
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] liggerz87:
Also ordered this one about 5 pound something so just waiting on it hopefully works with the camera protector thing I got as well
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] PhilipTD:
So I put the DBrand carbon on the Spigen Thin Fit with the camera skin on the phone. I used an X-Acto knife to cut out thin triangles on the corners so that it would lie flat. Looks great, only thing is you can feel the edges of the skin. Thinking about trying out the Grip.

UPDATE: If I had been less stupid, I would have rewatched the dbrand how-to-apply video and would not have had to cut the corners - the hair dryer trick really works
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] liggerz87:
Case arrived I actually really like it
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] liggerz87:
Also a heads up guys if you get a case that protects the camera remember to actually open so the camera isn't just dark black I forced stopped the camera app thinking the camera broke haha
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] znel52:
Spigen thin fit ftw. I ran the Caseology parralax for a while but I didn't realize how much bulk it added to the phone. Slapped on the thin fit and it felt so much better.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] PhilipTD:
Here is the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear with some dbrand skins
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] liggerz87:
The last case I posted about I like it so much I bought it in a black and red
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Master K:
Your picture shows the G logo but the Dbrand site does not show that. Did you do that yourself or was it something they used to offer?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ajsmsg78:
It's a regular P6 Pro Dbrand Skin with the Google Logo Cutout and colored Google Logo. When I ordered mine I was able to choose what color Google Logo I wanted.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] para5it33v3:
Ive always loved and used the Speck grippy cases. But nothing for the 6 pro. Im highly disappointed. Ended up with a Caseology case. Its not bad. But i miss the texture and grips. I tried this Incipio case. But the sides only have texture and its molded plastic not rubber or silicone. The back is also smooth. So i returned it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] itch808:
I am loving my Peak case, super grippy, magnets are strong. And it's magsafe compatible!
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] benleonheart:
I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid, the Moment Case and a kwmobile silicone case :)

Thanks for everyone that has posted their recommendations!

On a side note, how I wish Google would've brought back the fabric cases 😭
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kingpeppermint:
Upping this very old thread to recommend this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09JW286HD?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 so it's an very ugly case with built in screen protector, so if you want our case to look pretty this one is not for you.

I kept on needing to replace my screen protectors,(tried both 9h glass thingies as well as films) with this one because it's all in one part i don't have that issue anymore and it seems to provide good protection.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] MySelf_v1:
When I've bought the Z Flip 3 I've bought the Spigens Tough Armour too since I've always used it on almost all my phone's. It the last days, the case had few problems due the fact that I always take it away when I'm home and put it on only when I am at work so, the bottom side of the cover kept slipping off the phone and this was pretty annoying.

I've contacted Spigen on their website and send them a video of what was going on.

Long story short, in the next few days a free-of-charge Thin Fit cover arrived home 🏠 with an extra pack of adesive stripes inside for the Tough Armour.

Customer Service Level: Over 9000
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] beanbean50:
Oh, it wasn't the two words that I was thinking of then
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Philip:
How are you finding the Spigen Thin Fit?

I also got a Tough Armor, but I find it's just a bit too bulky - the main reason I got the Flip 3 was that it fits easily in my trouser pockets. I then got the Samsung silicone case - which I really like, but I find that the (super useful) ring gets in the way on my car's wireless charging cradle.

I was going to get a Spigen Thin Fit, but I read a lot of reviews which said that it makes the fingerprint reader hard to use, so instead I've just ordered a Samsung Aramid cover, which gets mostly good reviews. Hope I've made the right choice.

(As an aside, why are cases for the Z Flip 3 so expensive? I usually spent under £10 a case for my previous phones, but for the Flip 3 they are £30+).
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] paul c:
If you want a thin fit case, try the Ringke one. I got that after reading all the reviews about the Spigen thin case.

The RIngke doe sits job well. Don't get the transparent one, because the flash reflects through it. The standard matte black is fine.

On the pricing side, it's probably because they are 2 pieces, and not a standard shape...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Philip:
Thanks for the suggestion. I've just ordered one from Amazon - both the Ringke and the Samsung Aramid are on "free returns", so I'll see which I prefer and send the other one back.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] geert000:
I got this one, extremely satisfait with it.

I got my hands on a Qualcomm reference device with a Snap dragon865 its called kona for Arm64 and i want to know if there's someone who could help me out. It has android 10 and has an unlocked bootloader but thar version of android acts weird and drains alot of battery and i can't factory reset the device to check if it fixes the problem so im looking into installing something like android 12 but have no idea if this is possible. I have almost no experience in installing custom recovery or flashing roms but i can definitely follow up instructions if flashing rom is possible.

Don't know if a device needs to have specific Roms developed for it or if there's a generic ROM for any device, etc. Hope someone can help me out

Hello all,

Little question for experienced VGA devices users: is there a way to "emulate" a QVGA display on a VGA device?

For example, I'd like to use some QVGA Mobileshell skins, of which there are no VGA versions available. Of course those skins won't render well, as won't do most of the QVGA-only apps & themes.

So is there an easy trick of utility to achieve that and fool my touch pro to make it believe it runs with a QVGA display?

Thanks a lot in advance!

[Android Head-Units] urbex:
Been running these things for years, and one thing that's always struck me as odd is seeing reviews that mention lack of Android Auto and/or CarPlay as being a negative thing, or an outright deal breaker to many people. I always thought that the the point of these headunits was to avoid having to deal with connecting the phone and dealing with the limitations of AA/CP by being able to run everything on the head unit itself, otherwise it would just be a heck of a lot simpler to get a non Android unit to begin with. I only run Android phones, and I've never been able to get AA working on any head unit anyways, so maybe I'm just not seeing what I'm missing?

I'm not trying to start an argument, or say everyone else is wrong, I'm genuinely curious what AA/CP provides that makes it worth it over just running everything right on the head unit to begin with?
[Android Head-Units] Mr.TT_NZ:
I can't answer your question, I wondered that myself.

I thought those apps were for use on phones working with dumb head units that can't run apps by themselves.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Folks, I´m with you...

I will never understand why someone uses AA/CP on a real Android unit.

The only thing is, that they can use Whatsapp during driving... and that is something I woud really restrict even on Google side. That is nothing which should be used while driving. Enough idiots on the roads using their cellphone instead of connecting their phone to the built in hands-free which is nowadays in each single OEM radio.

It wasn't broke, so it looks like B&N fixed it.

Does anyone know the whereabouts of the manual downloads for various models? There used to be a page that would lead to each device and then the option to download the update zip. I can't find anything like that any longer. Just a lot of blah-blah about how everything will happen automatically.

I suspect an old link might still work for an individual file but that leaves a lot of room for guessing if you're looking for something else.

Hello everyone!

I personally use these m jays instead of the htc headset but as I understand it that doesnt really matter in this case.

When I press the button on my headset twice it calls the last contact I spoke with. After accidently pressing the button too many times I wish to disable this. While searching for information about this I only came across how to disable the action when you press the button once and hold it a little. Change the value of path in the following registry entry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path

I'm assuming there is a key for pressing twice aswell but which is it?
