i just realized something about that otterbox i posted. the HD2 has physical buttons on the bottom, while the Evo has touch sensitive(if i remember correctly) so we would have to wait for an official Evo case. maybe coming soon?:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] khov07:
I'm not too keen on cases, they add bulk to what are already big phones. My TP2 and the original TouchPro are thick with their qwerty keyboards.

I'm pretty careful with my phones, don't really have slippery hands. Only real accident I had with my TP2 is after about a week from purchase, I think I put my phone in the same pocket as my keys and out it came with a 1/4 inch scratch on the screen. I've been staring at it since.

Only accidents I ever really had with phones was with an old BB 7510. The belt clip was hard plastic, and it slipped out numerous times going up and down stairs. Pretty tough device though, the only thing that ever happened was the battery and cover would fly off...even after tumbling down cement staircases!

That's the one downside to new phones.
[EVO 4G General] Toaplan:
I have never been down with phone cases and screen protectors.

1. Similar to what the poster I quoted said, why would you want to make the device bigger than what it already is?

2. I think 99% of cases and screen protectors look stupid and nerdy. I usually think the phones I buy have visual appeal, and I don't know why anyone would want to cover it up. The EVO's exterior looks great.

3. I don't need to "baby" my phones. I don't really care if the screen gets scratched or if I drop the phone. I could give a ****. It it breaks or becomes that bad, I'll buy a new one.

The only reason I can agree with is when people want to have a case so they can belt clip the device or whatever. I like to carry phones in my pocket, but that's just me.
[EVO 4G General] khov07:
Totally agree with point number 2... IMO cases completely downgrade the look of a device; most are plain dorky. You can usually spot an iphone owner a mile away, as they typically have bedazzled/'gucci' (girls) or generic (guys) cases on them.

A lot of effort is put into the exterior design of these phones...why cover it up? Besides, I'd hate someone to confuse my EVO with a boring iphone that any joker can pickup for $97 at walmart, one aisle over from either diapers or anti-freeze.
[EVO 4G General] mikevillarroel:
This is the one i got today, let's see if its works...

[EVO 4G General] Tenny:
Right now my Evo is going bareback....

I'm waiting for my screen protector to come in, and will probably get an otterbox once they release it for the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] emac11:
I agree with the first two points, so I'm reluctant to get a case/screen protector. Unfortunately, I do care if my phone becomes scratched or if I drop it. I can't really afford to buy a new one!
[EVO 4G General] pecosROB:
One word. Manpurse.
[EVO 4G General] Tenny:
Screw that... get a tacticool holster...

[EVO 4G General] slapbet:
I'm going to go with a matte PhantomSkinz full-body. This will actually be the first time I've ever bothered to protect my phone, but with yearly upgrades available to me, resale value will be important. I can't afford to have the abrasions that will inevitably arise from just putting the phone down.
[EVO 4G General] ervman1:
I'm probably going to get a full body phantomskinz protector as well. I have the phantomskinz on my hero right now and I have zagg on my zune. Comparing the two I would say the phantom skinz is a lot smoother and easier to use. The screen protector on my zune is sticky and not smooth..
[EVO 4G General] mrono:
OMG WANT lol jk. All my phones have been nudists, they get dirty looks from other phones who prefer to dress up but they like the attention.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
I like the big pocket at the bottom for my "stash". I could get a lot in that pocket.
[EVO 4G General] mikevillarroel:
lol, you'll need extra room for your 9mm Glock
[EVO 4G General] wildcard:
naked except for a screen protector, and in a leather belt case
[EVO 4G General] PAPutzback:
I had my Palm Treo Pro for a day before getting a huge scratch from a staple used to hold some Pacer tickets together. I was pissed to say the least. I'll probably get a Seido screen protector unless someone knows of a better brand or one that allows the touchscreen to be used better.
[EVO 4G General] beerock:
Im gunna keep this just like my Hero, iPhone and women...........Naked:D

It all just feels better;)
[EVO 4G General] TickLe MY eLMo:
I am personally going to get a screen cover from these guys:

http://www.sgpstore.com/index.php/cPath/23_33

Now, they don't have one out yet for the evo, but I'm sure they will release one soon. Until then, i will use some cheap crappy one, but these shields work magnificently, so clear you can't even see it and apply pretty damn easy. I've seen a couple video reviews of them and people always rave how good they are(as well as in text reviews). I'm very picky with screen shields since i've tried many different ones out there on my ipod touch, and honestly, you just can't go cheapo with these things, or those bull**** "universal" screen protectors... I would highly recommend these screen shields once they come out with them for the evo!

Honestly, a regular plastic screen shield won't change anything, to not get one for this phone would be moronic, such a huge screen it is easy to get scratches on it EVEN if you are careful.

Refarding cases, whatever, that doesn't really matter, the matte back is good enough as is no real need for a case unless you are a total clutz.
[EVO 4G General] beerock:
I think you might have just called me a moron....:p

"to each his own" unless its a matte screen protector it will not be applied to my EVO..... I hate the way it changes the response of touch screens..... and yes There will be a difference...may not be a lot but there will be a difference.

I have had my Hero since release and it does NOT have a scratch on it.......:cool: so as someone else mentioned in another thread unless you have a pocket of diamonds or your on the beach a lot, you really should not have a big problem with this..........on the other hand if you emptied your piggy bank for this phone leave it in the box:p

I honestly expect to have this phone for about a year just like my hero at that time it will be passed down to my wife or one of the kids and I will get a new phone anyway;)
[EVO 4G General] TickLe MY eLMo:
Yeah, i understand, but matte screen protector? Forget that noise. Honestly though, it really doesn't change the responsiveness, you would never notice the difference. Also, if you didn't know, there is a layer of plastic on top of the screen, so it will be pretty easy to scratch up. This isn't straight glass my friend :). Even if it was, there are plenty of other things that can scratch glass, you act like diamonds and sand are the only two things...But fine, have a good time with your scratched up screen, hope that works out well for ya buddy =).
[EVO 4G General] xtkxhom3r:
i bought the full cover from zagg but im not going to use the screen cover just the body
[EVO 4G General] pecosROB:
It's not big enough for the Evo! Could use an iPad jacket... not too sure about when it's warm.
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
I had to put my iPhone 3GS in a case because the back was so prone to scratching. My Evo will go nekkid though...no soft shiny back to scratch!
[EVO 4G General] setite:
Protection is the Devil

I've ordered the OCD ZAGG with the maximum coverage. Damn thing will probably take me hours to put on :). I also plan to get a soft or hard case. Preferably hard, if it will still fit over the ZAGG. The handful of times I have dropped a phone make it worth it. I am not at all clumsy, but when you handle a phone several times a day every day, statistically, you are going to drop it.

Also one mustn't have a pocket of diamonds. One must just have a grain of sand to scratch the piss out of a phone.

And screen protectors all change the responsiveness of the phone. That's like claiming a condom doesn't decrease what your fun parts feel. Protection, in all aspects of life, have drawbacks. The question is, how bad do you want to protect yourself from scratches and unplanned pregnancy. In both, I choose protection over the alternative.
[EVO 4G General] liquidkernel:
Just bought the Seidio Innocase II for my Evo.

http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/csr3hev4-bk.htm

The one my friend has on his Nexus One is amazing; very much like the incase sliders for iPhones. I have a two-piece on my Hero and it's taken a beating, but the phone is in mint condition!
[EVO 4G General] chazglenn3:
I have the Innocase II on my iPhone. Best case there is IMO. But, nekkid is better!
[EVO 4G General] TickLe MY eLMo:
There is VERY little difference though...
[EVO 4G General] Rose4uKY:
I ordered Calrivue screen protectors last night. There's 2 in a pack so I bought a pack of clear and the Anti Glare. My friend is also getting the EVO so will put one of each kind on each of our EVO's and see which one we like the best. I also want the Seido Innocase and am planning on ordering one of those also. Then I'll get a silicone one from the somewhere else and I need the car dock too. Oh and I need a car charger. My TP2 was mini USB now everything is Micro. But it seems like you guys like the Seido and I know it's 30 bucks but I am going to try one. Anything to protect my phone good.

I was going to get the Amzer Argyle case but someone said there cheap and rip and one guy said it turned his girlfriends hand purple. But there cases won't be out till like the 14th or something like that. I want an Otterbox and a Case Mate Barely There but no EVO ones yet. My co worker has a nice Otterbox one for her iphone she just got.
[EVO 4G General] JM-PDA:
Please post pics of the various screen and body protections you get.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G General] nyijedi:
From my experience, screen protectors don't noticeably affect the responsiveness of the phone, but they do negatively affect the feel of it compared to the glass screen. I'll probably be going naked on the screen, but get a leather pouch type case to keep it in when I'm not using it.
[EVO 4G General] Rose4uKY:
Ok will do. Me and my friend both getting phone so we will put one clear and one anti glare and then I am ordering a seido case but haven't ordered it yet and it doesn't ship till the 3rd. I am wondering if maybe to get the holster one and see if I can clip the holster on to my purse and not my pants. It's ot much more to get the hoslter one. But I definately am getting the purple case.
[EVO 4G General] TurboX2:
im getting a zagg one during the meomorial day sale

http://www.zagg.com/j/memday2010.php

full body.. but im not worried as much about the screen than the body.. i dont like scratches on the body... I may just put the invisible shield around all the phone except the screen.

I expect the screen to be super scratch proof like the HD2
[EVO 4G General] mikevillarroel:
I'm calling right now to see if i can get any discount on mine.

EDIT: i just call and they gave me the 50% discount (i bought it 3 days ago) excellent customer service i must say.
[EVO 4G General] kmartburrito:
I too have had my Hero since launch day, and there isn't a single scratch on the screen. I've had a jelly skin on it, which helped the one single time I dropped it in my basement off the couch cushion. Since it extends out from the sides a bit it kept the screen from touching anything.

I really like the glass screen of the Hero and it looks like they used a similar screen for the Evo. I can't stand the feel of a protector, so mine too will be naked.

And a year from now, I'll sell it in perfect condition like my Hero is today :)

I carry it in my pocket at all times, sometimes with multiple things in the pocket with it. Those screens are actually pretty resilient.
[EVO 4G General] sergey.povzner:
I wouldn't worry about scratching the screen surface. But I would buy a case, because I know that at some point it will fall on the pavement in the street.
[EVO 4G General] fireboy6275:
I am going bareback too. I hate the feel of the protectors, if the screen happens to get scratched or what ever, report it stolen and pay the hundred to get a new one. I did it for the hero, I dropped it and got scratches on the top and sides so I reported it and got a new one and kept the old one to mess around with, for messing around with roms before I would flash them to the current phone.

My friend has protectors on his iPhone and Hero both peal on the sides and looks like crap after a few months.
[EVO 4G General] sablesurfer:
The reason I want a cover for my Evo is the camera. It just sticks out there and there is no way to lay the phone down that is safe. Face down on the screen, back down on the camera. For a week and half now I have had a napkin or cloth on my desk to lay the camera down.

Anyway, if she runs around nekkid all day, then where is the mystery when you look under the covers? :-0 :-P
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
I bought an Amzer jelly premium silicon gloves for my evo, it's a perfect fit with every necessity exposed like dual flash holes, camera lift, button extensions for easier presses, notification flash visible, it provides a good grip and absorbs plenty of shock, it covers light leakage areas and even pushes down on the the corners of the screen but shows the whole screen , plus it looks stylish. you can buy one at amazon, it is prime eligible. Only $10

you know you want it. :D
[EVO 4G General] mikevillarroel:
Look for the Seidio Innocase Active Limited Edition

I love it and protect everything but the screen of course.

Watch the review here
[EVO 4G General] sablesurfer:
:-) Already have one on order, but they are out. :( The limited ed is my fav over what seidio has on site. (Now repeating what I put in the acessories form.) I was just responding to the idea of naked or covered.

:)
[EVO 4G General] mikevillarroel:
this case with any of the the screen protectors are a killer combination
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
I prefer bareback :D
[EVO 4G General] gx1400:
I'm running a hydrid. I have Ghost armor (full body) on my Evo for the times I don't want the bulkiness of a case, then I just got in my Seidio Innocase II yesterday. Fits over the GA like a glove and protects the camera. Double Whammy!
[EVO 4G General] blulitespecial:
whatever you guys do don't get a plastic shield (ie. invisible shield type) for the camera lens.it makes pictures look like crap. not sure if that's been mentioned yet.

[EVO 4G General] Hrshycro:
Well I used to just get the value pack of trojans at costco when I had my iPhone, but after I got my EVO, I had to bump it up to the magnums to fit the huge screen. :D

Actually, I just let me little Eva Evo run wild, free and naked in my pants. ;)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dictionary:
If you guys seriously consider that either trolling or flaming, then your standards for such really are lackluster.

For the sake of the thread though, I went back to MCR r15. Runs amazing, and have much faster up and dl speeds. Paul said he will be releasing a ROM based on this soon anyway, so I can wait. FroYo was amazing though. Only real reason I went back was because of a wifi issue, LOL. Turns out it was just an IP address conflict. I reset the IP of my laptop and solved it, but only AFTER I'd reverted. Too lazy to go back again.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hah2110:
Why MCR R15 over CM 5.0.7.1?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
I have great battery life with FroYo, running stock FroYo kernel, and all... I do have a few small bugs that were clear signs to me it was unofficial to begin with, and am excited for the official release to see if it polishes out those few minor issues.

All in all, though, 99.9% of if works perfect. Super fast, great battery life, and so forth. Radio seems to be about the same as all the others, I get good 3G when I have it, good EDGE when I am on that. I still say I get better reception than my G1 did, but that is just me and my testing at my Dad's house (death hole for cell phone coverage) and my basement (it is where my "man dungeon" is located). Beyond that, I always get good coverage no matter the phone, so it has been a moot point to me... speed wise, I always edit my GPRS and HSDPA to 12 and 2.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
Why CM over MCR? Or Enom over CM? and so forth... personal preference is the likely answer. I like MCR since I have a pay account over there and can use his kitchens, thus making a ROM that is lighter. I like Enom because it is rock solid, fast, and great battery life (1.8.1 is best IMHO). I like CM because it is bleeding edge, fast, and while has its moments of instability, is still the gold standard for a full feature custom ROM, especially with all the extras pre-baked in. Desire has only 1 real option, Modaco.

And I like FroYo the most because it is new, super duper fast, good battery life, and I like frozen yogurt.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dictionary:
MCR r15 for me runs soooo much smoother. I love CyanogenMod, as my sign indicates. LOL. After trying out r15 though I was hooked.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hexix:
The poll options seem to indicate a dislike of Froyo. Even the positive options imply that by using it you are putting up with tons of bugs or something. Are people really having trouble with Froyo?

It's been working well for me. My battery life has been worse but I thought it was just because I had turned Latitude back on about the same time I upgraded to Froyo.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hah2110:
I LOVE FroYo but can't tolerate the battery consumption. Sorry if it came off bias
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0nniez:

1. Reboot phone, resets widgets and some installed programs on SD

2. Double messaging notifications (stock messaging app conflict with other apps, even if I disable notifications)

3. Miss the tweaks and stuff from CM

Still using it but urging to switch back until custom roms are out.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Old MuckenMire:
Not only am I keeping Froyo, I'm being FORCED to use my TMobile Nexus(2.2) instead of my ATT Nexus(2.1) because Froyo makes 2.1 feel like a slow crappy beta.

I cannot even get voice plus data at the same time with my TMobile Nexus, yet I use it because, imo, Froyo is that much better.

Going back to my 2.1 Nexus feels like a pre launch beta device that I yell at because it's so damn laggy compared to Froyo, which is fast as a bullet.

Please Google give us 2.2 so I can go back to my freaking ATT Nexus! :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dictionary:
