I Magnum PielFrama Htc Hd2

Me i orded the I magnum PielFrama , yes it is expensive but is done and hope is nice case to protect my future HTC HD2 coming home some were midel December orded at expacys China 2 days ago http://www.pielframa.com/htc-touch-hd-2-imagnum-cases.htm

The full pack case phone and 3 hours battery pac cost me 635 euros :eek:

Of course I could buy something similar in China for about 3 euros I have one very nice leather case on my n97 wish cost me 3 euros.
[HD2 Accessories] pgamble:
Piel Frama superb as always. They've acknowledged the proximity sensor issue and are doing a redesign ... at which point they will send me a new one ... no need to send the old one back ... now that is service for you.

Noreve I've had before ... and they are excellent - not quite the not quite the quality of Piel Frama ... a bit more production line .. but good supple leather and accurate cut outs.

If you look at cost ... the Noreve for HD2 is 40 euros + 10 euro delivery to UK

The Piel Frama is 70 euros with 11 Euros for delivery (as I say ... I got it the day after it was shipped !).

The Noreve is more like the Magnum ... I discounted it because of the lack of protection to the side ... and me not being convinced it wouldn't fall out.

Can I justify the difference in cost .. yes ... but only just. Leather is softer ... it is more detailed ... the stitching is perfect .. the strip with the popper on is the same width end to end with a perfectly cut hole for you headphones to go through ... the Noreve has a shaped edge ....

Paul.

I am now using the G1 case inside the lowepro tasco 20 when i just carry it in my pocket and i get the feeling of a well protected, well padded (especially the screen) phone. Peace of mind i guess.

For carrying it on my belt i love the krusell case or the case second from top in my earlier post which came from superetrader

http://www.superetrader.co.uk/leath...tml?gad=CMDIu8kDEgg-s_Nh2Zr1URiY3OT-AyCY9p4z&

and only cost £5.00 inc postage.

I prefere belt loops to any sort of clip as i find if you bend over the case with phone inside can still fall off your belt. If it has to have a clip then in must have a loop for extra saftey. both the krusell and the case mentioned here have loops

A skin type one and a ali lined leather one.

I'm still looking for a case that is as good as the one i have for the TD2. supplied in the box by HTC.

Very simple sleeve type design that did the job just fine. If anybody spots a case similar f in design to the HTC own for the TD2 please post details

It`s this model, I found it suitable for me because I don`t like my phone hugged by a case and the phone looks easy to pull out... I don`t like silicon cases or things that cover the design of the phone...

Piel Magnum for me as well !

Yes, I just canceled my Noreve order and bought the Piel Magnum as well (top quality), along with the G300 battery pack from expansys. Since I don't pay VAT, its a deal to get them both at the same time.

I had a rethink about the user friendliness about the camera area with the extended flap on the Noreve....it has its pluses and minuses.

I think in the end the Piel Magnum will protect my device the most and give me the user friendliness which is always important, although I will have to be more careful about the slightly exposed back camera area, when packing my device into anything.

Those who have the Magnum, any feedback about the exposed camera area.
[HD2 Accessories] madindehead:
Except, you can't buy retail from that website. Looks more wholesale to me. eBay has a few silicone cases now too.

They have a retail outlet HERE. They ship worldwide and shipping costs are included. Payment is via PayPal so should be secure & reliable.

I look forward to reading it Gavin.

I'm currently in communication with them as well, to find more information on their Desktop Cradles ~ of which I am sure you are well aware they now have four different types for the HD2.
[HD2 Accessories] Som30ne:
About that

About the Stylus and the anti-static coating - I didnt really understand what they mean . . .

Is the cradle treated for anti-static ?

does the cradle have a holder for a stylus ?

Or is it a kit containing a stylus and some anti-static cleaning slution ?
[HD2 Accessories] fards:
as much as I'd love a noreve case (it appeals more than the magnum) I can't justify(afford) that much in the month of christmas pressie buying.

I could persuade the kids that one of them really really wants a nice leather case to play with (and when they're bored of it I could use it) but I doubt that would go down well with SWTSLT**

so I bought the HTC flip case instead, they seem to do a decent job with the cases lately, the stock HD2 pouch is nice, the advantage case was nice, the HD case was ok. Inkino have them in stock and at 1/3 price of the noreve I think I can sneak it under the radar :p

PDAir Case for Leo

HTC have done such a nice job on the HD2, with the tactile rubberized plastic and brushed metal back; ya just wanna be able to touch it, enjoy the feel of it in your hand.

Why encase/wrap/seal your phone for the next guy; enjoy it yourself; if you're careful it will last the 18-24 months till your next phone, (and by then what's it worth anyway, pristine or not).

So I went for a simple leather sleave-type case - no clips, no flips, no fuss - check out PDAir's offering ...

No Case from T-Mobile UK

I am with T-Mobile in the UK and they are now being very firm on the lack of a case. My HD2, like others reported, came with no case :(. I spoke with T-Mobile and, despite the packaged standard HTC booklet that refers to an included 'pouch', T-Mobile insist that none is supplied - although they also believe that no memory card is supplied either! (and I at least got the standard miserly 2Gb card).

Either way, T-Mobile refuse to issue me with an HTC HD2 case even though the paperwork from HTC tells me it is in the box. However, as a 'good-will' gesture they have just agreed to credit my contract account with £20 so I am waiting for these reviews of new cases to reveal what looks like the best (for me). I favour a simple slip-in type that adds little to the thickness but offers protection in an easy to access case. I am particularly keen to know more about the A1 Custom-made Leather Case at approx £24 (Ebay) - is it nice and slim with the phone in? It looks very nice quality as commented by others and can be customised too.

For the present I am using my old HD pouch to at least protect it whilst in my pocket (it protrudes from the top only slightly) - but that really does not do justice to the phone....
[HD2 Accessories] alexnvidia:
mine does not come with pouch too. im with T-mobile as well. where did u voice your complain to? the high street shop where u get your HD2 or calling customer care support? i too am not happy with the whole pouch issue.cost me 75 Quids just to get a pier frama imagnum case!
[HD2 Accessories] tony.wheeler:
The T-Mobile (UK) Missing Pouch Story...

As soon as I got my HD2 I called the 150 (UK Customer Care) number and logged a call to tell them the 'pouch' was missing. They told me none should be supplied as none (and no memory card) was on their 'list' with them. I pushed the point because it clearly says one should be in the box (on the standard HTC booklet within the box) - I suggested that as they had only just begun to stock it that their paperwork was clearly catching up - after all the memory card was there too.

I was put on hold and the person told me that someone more senior had authorised an issue of the missing pouch. I thanked them and went away to play with my new toy...

Just over a week went by and no case arrived so I called them back - this time they were firm that no case should be supplied (by T-Mobile at least) even if the paperwork in the box said it should be there. I was unhappy with that and told them so as it appeared that everyone else was getting them (I know now that others are missing them too) - so they agreed to credit me £20 as the 'good-will' gesture. At least that will go

towards

a nice case.

It looks to me like T-Mobile may have slightly rushed out the phone in original HTC packaging and missed this one. Perhaps they will soon remove the single HTC booklet that tells you a pouch should be in the box and replace that with a branded T-Mobile note (perhaps they might even pocket the 2Gb cards too?).

This is minor though... The phone is great! :)

(note: detail included just in case it helps others here..)
[HD2 Accessories] alexnvidia:
very detailed indeed. thanks for the heads up. the pouch is clearly part of HTC HD2's included accessory and should have never been removed, so i hope i can get t-mobile to compensate the missing pouch. much appreciated. cheers

I was worried that the touch screen keyboard for the key on the extereme left/right would be difficult to use at the Pdair design has leather all the way around the front of the HD2 but the vertical leather strips are not as obtrusive as you'd think. But still prefer the Noreve/Piel Frama design.

My Noreve arrived this morning (sat) after ordering it yesterday at 16.15 from

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/noreve-tradition-a-leather-case-for-htc-hd2-p22610.htm

it's over £5 cheaper than from Noreve's own site. I choose the cheaper £2.50 postage too

It's a compact quality item that gives good protection - I'm very happy with it
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
What is it like for 'side-protection'. Is it protected enough?

Also, is the front cover clear?

In the shot at MF there appears to be a silver stud showing?
[HD2 Accessories] audiem:
The 'silver stud' in the bottom right corner of the front cover is Noreve's logo which though raised slightly is not unattractive.

On the side with with the volume button the phone is protected up to the button with clearance of a few millimeters either side then onward leaving about 1cm unprotected at the top. The other side is completely protected except for 1cm at the top
[HD2 Accessories] lovebell:
Great found, I've been used this style since HD, it protects good, and not gain much bulk as the leather case.Just orded one, we will see.
[HD2 Accessories] htc-hd2:
I've ordered (and payed) this one some time ago, but till now I'm still waiting for it to arrive. (it has been shipped)
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Thanks audiem.

I hear what you say about the 'silver stud' but it does worry me slightly.

I often drop quite a few items into my briefcase and what I don't want is say the stud making contact with other items and scratching/marking etc.

Do you think it would be easy to remove or is it fitted within the leather cover (i.e. if you remove it there would then be a hole?

Other than than, how many credit cards do you believe you can fit?

I've been considering one of these for some time......

I'm a bit of a sucker when it comes to cases and like more than one for whichever change of mood takes me.

Besides the Piel Frama I'm also considering one of these which is really more a wallet than case but at least it allows you to hold not just your Phone and a couple of cards but two separate compartments for money & notes etc. :)

Quality Cases With Belt loops

Just been through the whole of this thread.

Does anyone do a case of the highest quality of, say, Piel Frama or Noreve, but with a belt loop similar to this...http://www.superetrader.co.uk/leather-flip-case-for-htc-hd2-leo-p-10536.html

I have used a number of belt clip cases and each time I have had to revert back to a belt loop for security and peace of mind. Lost count of how many times a clipped phone has popped off my belt and ended up shoulder down on the pavement (bit like buttered toast; always lands with the buttery side down for maximum damage).

Thanks

Hi there,

question, I have an a2dp bluetooth headset, which I use to listen to my music on my diamond, but since I've stopped using Touchflo3d I have the following problem: the play/pause/ffwd/bwd buttons only seem to work with windows media player. even worse, If I'm listening to music with pocket player and I touch one of the buttons, it automatically starts windows media player.

How can I turn this off? is there a tool to configure which software uses my a2dp functionality??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] defaria:
Even though it's extremely dead, you really should post in the Condiuts forum - not here. AVRCP is problematic at best on Windows Mobile. It's one of the main reasons I'm ditching Windows Mobile entirely as soon as I can find a good phone sporting Andriod (I'm crying about HTC's decision to not provide a HD2 based Andriod phone).

Which version of Pocket Player do you use? I'm using 4.1. I think 4.0 and 4.1 are the only ones that properly support AVRCP. Even so, sometimes, as you note, it goes and starts controlling WMP. Stupid HTC caused this!

Meantime check out http://www.conduits.com/community/forum_posts.asp?TID=1785&PN=1

It talks about a new Bluetooth DLL that fixes a lot of the problems (but, unfortunately not all). This DLL is a Windows Mobile 6.5 based DLL so that may explain some of the times when it messes up.

Good luck.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] SinnerNL:
Thanx!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] EgorLev:
yes, you should edit [HKEY_CURRENT_USER/MUI/CurLang=xxxx]

were xxxx is your language number. but after this modification you may lose your sms notification sound. If so, then you should search for the following files made for your language:

deliveryreportsms_delivered.0419.html

deliveryreportsms_expired.0419.html

deliveryreportsms_failed.0419.html

newtextmsg.0419.html

newtextmsg_unread.0419.html

How can I translate Manila 2.5 (HD2 WWE EastEurope 1.43) to my language (Latvian).

There is no available CAB files for Latvian language and if I try to change "CurLang" register,it still remains in english.

Which XML files I need to translate and how I need to rename them?

There are many files xxxxxxx_manila files in \Windows directory.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] EgorLev:
it's happend some times. you should change CurLang setting, then turn off device with the power button, then soft reset.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SkeletonFE:
There is no translation in Latvian at all. I checked all XML files. :(

So, I need to translate it by myself.

But I don't know, how I need to rename my created files.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] EgorLev:
you don't need xml files for manila translation. all files is already there if ROM chief hasn't removed them. 99% of chiefs does not remove this files so all you need is to change in your registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER/MUI/CurLang=xxxx there xxxx is your language code. For English its 0409, for Russian – 1049, for Latvian – you should find out.

When i download some songs they are normally "Album : Unknown Album"

I also download some songs through the iMusic Tao app and it annoys me when they dont have an Album as the Album Art Grabber cant give it an album art so is there an apps on the market that will allow me to edit properties ? :)

Also whats the best ways of doing it on the PC is it just the basic vista one ?

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djmace:
There's mp3tagger pro in the market, its 99p. Let's u edit tags and album art. I used to use the free version which didn't allow for art change but was worked very well to edit the tag info. I guess the pro version will work just as well. Think it was developed by a member on here if I remember correctly.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -nrm:
Yes, that's right, I am the developer :)

You can choose "load directory" or "load by album" in mp3tagger pro and then bulk edit the album and artist name for all mp3s at once (it really writes the info into the files). Then you can automatically search for a cover with mp3tagger pro as well.

Hope that helps,

Lars
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craig0r:
Another option (since I hate WMP for music) is MediaMonkey. It gives you a lot of options for syncing to different devices. You can tell it to copy folder.jpg into the album directory when it syncs, and you can also tell it to embed the album art into the mp3 files. All my album art seems to go across just fine with it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snaphapman:
Hey just bought your program the other day, really like it, helps sort out my album art problem, just one thing i would really like to see would be grouping of files by a search name as you could have directorywith 100's of different music files in them.
