I am really interested in the model on the taiwan forum. But I am not talking about and does not include the taiwan or Chinese or other... obviously is not a seller... so how do I find on the internet. The country is not a concern, I am the purchase to Japan on ebay lol.

I bought the silicone type B skin. The proximity/light sensor holes do not allign thus causing blackouts when on call. Sides do not fit tight too. Not recommended. The type A should work better.

I sent you an email at 16/12 and have no answer to that!

[HD2 Accessories] Xeon:
It doesn't. However Im not gonna try to remove it. I'm just happy with how the case looks like. Good quality and elegant.

My only problem is that if I accidentally turn on the screen, it can take my finger taps even when the screen is covered :confused:

I can't have a conversation with the case closed, the proximity sensor refuses to turn off the screen, weird...

However Im happy with the case...
[HD2 Accessories] Xeon:
what you are talking about is the Piel Frama classic not the Noreve case...

Well after no contact from JRBuddy I opened an ebay issue, within an hour I had a responce from them, nice to know that they ignore you until you raise an issue, certainly wont be using them again...

@ Gav,

If you don't mind me asking, how many cases will you have eventually and...why? :) I just have this vision of you sitting down in front of all these cases going "loves me, loves me not, loves me...." :)

@Others,

Mike from Super_E_Traders was as good as his word; "replacement" case landed in the post this morning after I spoke to them yesterday. My suggestion is if you don't get a response to emails then ring the company and ask to speak to him. Hope this helps.

The clue Den is in Gavin's signature....;)
[HD2 Accessories] gavinfabl:
Just sitting down to a lovely cuppa tea. Let's see, love this one, hmm not this one lol

I will have about 10 cases soon. Some I will keep. Depends on use etc and what I am doing as to how much protection needed etc. The others I will post FOC to my XDA HD2 friends if they want them.

As Mike said the clue is in my signature. Although a few I have bought.

Happy New Year.

Enjoy your cuppa and the cases Gavin.... Boys must have toys no matter how small or trivial.

My PDair aluminum metal cases arrived today, it is odd that they sent me 2 in one package, I ordered the one with plastic cover by mistake, when I realized i ordered the wrong one after a week I had been noticed it's shipped already, then I decided to order another one which dosen't have the cover. Now they are both in my hands arrived in one package...so they actually didn't ship the first one until a week later?

I am satisfied with this case anyway, it has some kind of sponge sticked inside so that won't scratch HD2, and the strong aluminum metal covers all area that possable be crashed (except the open style that dose't come with the screen cover, but I am ok with it), I am surprised that it is very light, it adds some thickness but acceptable to me.This case will be my primary rig for HD2.

Fitting Alu-Case

Hello. I am searching for A fitting Alu-Case for HTC HD2 Leo.

A saw one at Ebay, but it is worst cutten - with a small Line which coveres the HTC-Logo and with too big Cut around the Buttons which looks like a Woman with a exXtra FAD Ass!

I am searching for an Alu-Case like this one (but with Aluminium-Material instead of cheap Plastic) - this one has A PERFECT Fit:

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280445449154&_trksid=p2759.l1259

Has anyone seen A more fitting Alucase?

THX A Lot!

Got my E4 Easecase today. Its great quality for the price, comes in its own box and even the case has its own matching sleeve case! It does make the total thickness about 3x that of the phone, especially when your bank cards are in it , but you dont need a wallet, so its perfect for me. The fit is excellent, the phone is held nice and firmly, no chance of falling out.
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
So, has anyone got the PDair Luxury Silicone Case yet? I just ordered one of these and a screen protector from them. I read a few posts back (before NYs) that there seems to be a production delay?

Hi guys,

I'm considering one of the following cases, could people offer opinions on them please:

http://www.superetrader.co.uk/silicone-case-for-htc-hd2-black-p-11260.html

I'm particularly interested in which one has the most snug fit and offers the best protection.

Any help would be much appreicated.

Cheers!

How long have you waited for your Noreve ? It's already 3 weeks and I haven't receive mine yet...
[HD2 Accessories] wacky.banana:
See responses above. Only problem with these is that they don't offer the total protection of a full case like the Noreve, for example. You need to bear that in mind.

To my surprise and although the Dark vintage was supposed to be a backorder item, they sent it a couple of days after I ordered it! It took 4 working days though for the UPS to deliver it. Total wait time was ca 6-8 working days.
[HD2 Accessories] digimaz:
Yours was quite fast considering I got mine in like about a month for my HD.
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
I know the feeling.... I have some hardware that has been out for delivery for the past two days and all I am receiving is a jobsworth telling me the weather is the problem.

I would be happy with that answer if it were the case but I have no problems getting out and about (okay Range Rover granted), but if my wife can navigate around here I see no reason why a daily courier driver can not negotiate these conditions...

In the UK it's the same every time... First sign of weather being 'slightly' off the norm and all chaos breaks loose.

I bet they would have a different reaction if we told them "sorry, can not send an Ambulance to you, the snow will damage their shiny flashing blue lights".
[HD2 Accessories] gavinfabl:
not sure as I have possible 3 companies sending cases. Will review them soon.

Options - Proporta , Brando Shopping and 4ustuff.
[HD2 Accessories] gavinfabl:
the Police and Park Rangers have even now told people in 4x4 not too drive here. I know of several neighbours who tried and got stuck in their Range Rovers.

Seriously frustrating and food supplies reducing now. Power lost for a bit too today. Lost heating then. Had a look tonight at our road. To get to main high street is gonna take some huge shovelling - hours .

Damn! I guess this is the price you pay for living in the sticks!

On the cases front I ordered the following today:

and as a side note:

http://www.netimes.com/shop/car-mount-holders-for-htc-hd2-t8585-htc-leo-p-2463.html?cPath=80_731

Under £12 for the lot shipped? Can't argue really.

Hopefully the car holder will be decent, sadly my generic one that has the spring mounted flange things (that hold the device in place) doesn't spread quite far enough to accomodate the HD2 easily. I often have issues with flanges not spreading quite far enough to accomodate me ooo errr missus!

Htc po s511

Althought I didn't expect much of it, I'm really happy with the HTC PO S511 case that arrived today..!! Perfect fit, very easy to use with one hand, you just flip it open with your finger. Normally I don't like cases on my phones but I find this one very stylish. It just looks cool.. and very affordable..

I have a Piel Frama iMagnum on the way that I payed €50 for including shipping because I was looking for something more shock proof (the glass screen really worries me) but I don't think I will like it as much as the sleek PO S511..
[HD2 Accessories] sunking101:
So which is the best case? I don't really like flip cases but I hate tight-fitting slip cases too...
[HD2 Accessories] bel_z_bub:
That would be personal.. but I hate cases in general and certainly flip cases but I really like the PO S511. It made it so much more easy to use my phone then the original slip case (PO S510).. I liked it, looked good, but impossible to use with one hand while walking and no headset.. the PO S511 can easily be opened and closed with one hand without the risk of dropping it.. and doesn't have a bulky ugly strap with an ugly (scratching) button or a disturbing magnet.

I like the iMagnum but hate the bump on the back for the clip that remains even when you remove it.. I also hate the ugly closing straps (in general). makes it so bulky.. and I also don't like the flip flips upwards and not downwards.. it would be better upwards when used on a desk but I asume the knob bump makes it impossible to use it on a flat surface.. and if the magnet disturbs the compass, I really don't like the idea of a magnet on the excact same place as where the sim card is placed in the phone..

I'll see if I like it when it arrives, but if not I'll probably have a cheap black iMagnum for sale soon..

The PO S511 doesn't offer much "drop" protection but besides that, I think it's the case for a case hater like me.. I bought it becuase the iMagnum could take 3 weeks for delivery so I bought the cheap HTC flip case for the time being, but I'm really impressed with this smart case.. but I do hope the leather dye smell goes away soon....
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
With 8 inches falling last Tuesday, it's normally we up here in the Peak District that receive tons of the blinking white stuff. So my heart goes out to those who are suffering.

Hope you get sorted soon Gavin.

I use inside the pouch of the HD, and then inside the TyTN case to my belt. (using it inside the pouch for scratch free protection)

PS: Sorry about my english but the important part is that HD2 enter inside the original HTC TyTN case perfectly.

the chinese website actually is a auction website.. and abit problem is china dont allow their currency to flow outside so at the moment only hk, tw, china are allow to purchase or by some other gateway.

Sky News were here broadcasting live. They had so much trouble getting here, their 4x4 broke down with a burnt out clutch. However, I do know it was -18.1 last night. Still no cases and no post since.
[HD2 Accessories] wacky.banana:
Gav,

I know we are in danger of taking this thread seriously off topic but...when SKY News got to you did they headline with the burnt clutch incident, then interview each other to give their individual spin on it and to fill in air time, followed by an interview with some poor chap in outer somewhere-or-other who (allegedly) makes these failing clutches, can't speak a word of English, but is on the news to give a degree of gravitas to an otherwise complete non-story full of utter bo****cks? :)

Sorry, its a new year; I shouldn't be so cynical.

Sorry, mods, for going off topic. I promise to flagellate myself later as a penance...... :)

Back on topic: what cases are you expecting to get and therefore share reviews here? Would be interesting to know what's in your review pipeline as cases for the HD2 continue to be a hot topic.

Absolutely no sign of my Noreve; the wait is killing me. :(

I have also placed my order with Noreve and am still waiting for my case. The courier charge for EUR2x for shipment from France to Hong Kong is a bit higher than other shop, but the email support is very good at Noreve. Anyway wish this case is as good as the past cases I bought with Noreve.

I received the B1 off ebay just before Xmas, it's a great little case and for £25 I couldn't be happier. I can now happily just chuck the lot in my handbag :D rather than having to carefully place it in a small inside pocket. I have no idea what level of protection it would offer if I dropped it, the case is sturdier than I had expect though, but then I have never dropped a phone before and no intention of starting with this one... (when you earn a living with cameras worth over 4k and lenses at over 3k, you learn not to drop things lol)

Where did you get the iMagnum for 50€?

On Piel Frama website the price is 80€ with shipping included, 50€ is a big difference.

I also received my order from netimes, in 12 days from HK to Mexico.

Their HD2-RC Resin Soft Jelly Case is indeed great, nice quality, tigh fit but it's still easy to put the phone in or remove it.

The case material is way better than the regular silicone cases I tried on my previous phone.

Their pouch case is nice too : materials and stitching are of below average quality, but the case fit well and the HD2 is still easy enough to remove thank to the bottom hole. The belt clip feel adequately secure too.

The case was stinking very strongly of chemical upon receival (it's synthetic leather), but leaving it outside an afternoon solved the problem. Overall great case for the price.

(http://www.netimes.com/shop/horizontal-case-for-htc-hd2-nokia-e61-universal-p-2432.html?cPath=80_731)

I also ordered a Nokia Micro-USB cable from them, which works fine with the HD2.

I purchased a car charger too, but I haven't tried it yet.

I ordered the rubberized hard back cover from pdair. From the looks of it it's one of the few that offers real protection (hard back) .

Don't blindly order like i did, it seems the exact same case is offered on ebay for 1/3rd of the price.
[HD2 Accessories] DavidC1980:
I've just received a replacement OEM HTC pouch, as my T-Mobile supplied HD2 didn't have one (cheapskates!!).

My only questions is whether there's a function for the handset to auto-lock or turn the screen off when the proximity sensor detects the phone is in the pouch (or a pocket)?
[HD2 Accessories] ghl10000:
Me too, I can fully confirm this.

I hope you need not wait for it to arrive so long as I had to.

This was the only downside however.

It fits on the millimeter and simply looks classy.

Anyone tried the Elite Flip Case For HTC HD2 T8585 from :

http://www.netimes.com/shop/elite-flip-case-for-htc-hd2-t8585-htc-leo-p-2471.html?cPath=80_731

Seems to keep a decent overall thickness and to protect well the device, but I'm afraid about the quality of the case material as the price is very cheap and they mention using "ploy urethane material". Any feedback?

It's the exact same case that I purchased from Netimes. They are like 75% cheaper than the FlexiShield price, but the saddest thing is that they even charge less for shipping from HK to UK than mobilefun for a UK to UK shipment. Kuddo royal mail.

Clear Coat offer a product similar to Zagg's Invisible Shield, but I dunno if it's better or not. Anyone tried? www.clear-coat.com/product.php?productid=700
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Den,

I have the Ebony too and can report it is a fine case. On par with a Piel Frama.

I rather like the way it opens half-way down at the back; when open great for taking shots, when closed great for protecting the Lens.

The only issue I have is with the closure, it being a clasp and a strong one at that.

On a couple of instances I have accidentally switched on the screen whilst closing the clasp... but I have developed a technique. I hold the screen cover and press down on the clasp. This stops it from making contact with the screen.

Sorry can't do any photo's at the moment Den, too busy with surgery today.

Must dash........... :)
[HD2 Accessories] paulking:
don't know if anyone has had any expirence with "greymobiles" on ebay but a piece of advice...the cases for the hd2 are too bloody small :(

@ Beards,

WB
[HD2 Accessories] Beards:
Sorry Den, the only reason I gave an explanation was because I thought you had requested one ~ where you asked for thoughts on the case.

I knew you already had one on order Den (and was surprised you had not received it yet).

Just thought you needed further information. :)
[HD2 Accessories] DuperMan:
This thread seems like the proper place to vent on this issue, hope it wasn't discussed...

I'm using PDair's "Book Type" Black Leather Case with my HD2 and am NOT satisfied. This specific case has a thin leather band meant to cover the phone's bezel (front panel, around the sides and the top of the screen). This band gets in the way while accessing the top of the screen. This means I must take my HD2 out of the case when pressing either the "OK/Close" or "Start" buttons which makes the case a nightmare to use.

While initially I was impressed with the Book Type's overall quality, this issue turns the case into a simple carrying pouch for all practical purposes, and this simply isn't acceptable.

My quarrel is with this particular model alone and in no way intended to imply anything about PDair in general. I have used PDair's aluminum case with the HP iPaq hx4700 for several years and was extremely content. In fact, I am awaiting arrival on the PDair HD2 aluminum case.

I intend to try sewing short elastic segments at the top corners of the case - hopefully this will keep the bezel lining in place and solve my problem without making the case too much of a monstrosity :)
