Just got my cases the other day. So far I have been using the black one and it fits great. But I'm glad I ordered the clear one since you will not be selling them anymore :D
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
From your screenshots I see your saying that we may use only one coupon per purchase.

Thats fine, that is all you had to say.

If I were buying a house from you for 250k you can be damned well sure that I will be on my hands and knees crawling under the house checking for issues and will be going over it with a fine toothed comb.

Since when has it become bad for a consumer to make sure that his purchase is what he expects and that there will be no surprises? Thats a rhetorical question.

I will still be buying them from you, but I must say man, you have a lot to learn about customer satisfaction, all you needed to do was state that you accept one coupon per purchase, sorry about the website not looking right in your browser and offering the other method for purchase (the invoicing), that would have steeled all issues immediately.

It seems your mistaking my genuine issues and concerns for mockery and personal attacks, not in the least.
[EVO 4G Accessories] scl23enn4m3:
For (what seems to be) an internet message board disagreement, you guys seem to be pretty civil. Props.
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
4 cases ordered and ready to be shipped, too bad he was out of frosted ones, would have taken 4 of those as well.
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
I did not take any of this personally. The fact is that the site does display correctly in Chrome and Firefox. Additionally, you can stack coupons and use Google Checkout or Paypal as many, many others have done. Not sure why you had issues.

Gotta be civil, its the only way to be ;)
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
Thats wird, cause I was unable to stack the coupons, either way, cases ordered lol.

And no point in not being civil, cussing each other out would have simply resulted in both of us getting timed out/banned from the forums and would have accomplished nothing.

Besides, doc says I need to keep my blood pressure down, with 2 kids and a wife that bugs the hell out of me, I cannot afford to get upset :eek:
[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
A transparent red one like this one? ;) I hope it doesn't bother the OP/seller of this thread that I'm posting this link, since he's only offering them in black right now anyway (and solid-colored).

I agree about TPU cases in general tho, the phone feels a lot slimmer on the hand than w/the OEM HTC silicon skin which made it seem huge, but they still protect the camera just fine and they're even less slippery on the hand (yet they slide out much easier from your pocket, it's awesome). The sides/edges don't move at all once you've got it on, unlike silicon skins which loosen up and just feel very floppy around the sides after a while.

I bought the Amzer Argyle one (off Amazon), which looks identical to the Epik one I linked from DCMugen on Ebay (probably the same source for both), except for the arygle pattern of course. The off-brand Argyle ones on Ebay are different tho... I think those are slightly thinner (might not protect the camera as well) and they have one big cutout for the camera/speaker/LEDs, unlike mine (from Amzer) or the one I just linked.

I'm actually about to order that Epik one to use it in conjunction w/that clear battery door you mentioned, I'll probably get a black and a red one since they give you a 50 cent discount if you order two at once, what the heck.

P.S. FWIW, the buttons are actually much easier to press with my Amzer TPU case on than without it, the power button has a great feel to it, the volume down button is almost too easy to press when picking up the phone (only almost tho). Seems I read about a few issues w/that on the case in this thread...

I can take it off later to see if it's just flat on the inside area around the buttons or what, I suspect it is since the area around the volume buttons bulges out ever so slightly. Neither of the two I've mentioned has that neat raised ring around the camera tho, they're still thick enough that the camera's recessed but the one in this thread probably protects it a bit more in the long run.
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
OK, now that we're passed the lengthy diatribes.. I need 3 test subjects please.

The first three respondents (as noted by transaction timestamps) to assist me in testing PayPal checkout at evocases.net will receive their cases free!! Here's what you need to do:

1. Go to evocases.net (here's the link: http://www.evocases.net/?page_id=16&shopp_pid=1)

2. Place one case in your cart and checkout with

PayPal

You are of course welcome to use the coupon codes, etc. but only the first 3 to respond will receive their case for free. (The "free" part of this will be me giving you a complete refund through PayPal)

This is in response to a couple of customers who yesterday said they could not complete a transaction using PayPal. I have personally tried it and have no issues but need it tested.

Thanks to those who respond.
[EVO 4G Accessories] prophetx2:
I just tried ordering a black one (i ordered a frost one from you not too long ago using the email address prophetx2@yahoo.com) and I'm getting "Page not found" after completing the transaction (after i get to my paypal screen and click submit payment). I used paypal on my previous transaction with you as well so I know it worked at some point. I tried 3 times, twice with instant bank transfer (which i did NOT use before) and once with my credit card and neither worked.

Hope this helps a bit..
[EVO 4G Accessories] Childofthehorn:
Yeah, the one I am currently using even has raised buttons that look and feel like those on the device itself.

My Boyfriend has the same phone and claimed my Argyle Clear case as soon as I opened up the package. he is a guy who wears a lot of suits and the like so he thought hat it looked really spiffy. Previously, he had the official HTC hard case. He is not going back to that thing. it was bulky and had a bunch of extra space at the top. It really isn't a very well contoured case, especially when you consider that it is bearing the HTC name sake.

The Manu/Site here definitely has a really nice looking product and one which seems to cover the most of the phone with the camera.

To anyone who reads this and makes or designs cases....

MAKE THE HEADPHONE PORT BIGGER!

Some of us like to use really nice headphone plugs or custom equipment which uses Switchcraft or Canare or even 1/8 to 1/4" converters.

I had to modify mine to handle a Switchcraft plug. If you have sets of headphones that are high end, do ourself a favor and put a nicer Neutrik or Switchcraft plug on there. Canare, IMO, is a bit too heavy and big and ugly in the 1/8" size and can actually hurt equipment jacks.
[EVO 4G Accessories] daving313:
Just tried under ing...@gmail Got a page not found on the Evocases.net site with a paypal express link token in the http address bar, this after attempting to click the Submit Order on Paypal. Attempted using PayPal Later. Also, no transactions showed up on my PayPal account or any e-mail confirmations.
[EVO 4G Accessories] MILH0U5E:
Just tried from my phone... got all the way thru in paypal, but when i tried to complete the transaction, i got a page not found on evocases.net.
[EVO 4G Accessories] NxtGenCowboy:
I ordered mine and got it really fast..

Buttons are extremely hard to push... other than that for the price.. I give it a B

Its not smooth on the outside.. seems like it cut out of the mold in a hurry.

Kinda like the old models when you break off the parts from the plastic holders.

But for the price, its a great buy!
[EVO 4G Accessories] plmiller0905:
I just got my cases and I'm highly impressed. It feels good in the hand and along with my Zagg Shields and this case, I have good protection for table lay. The back of the phone/case also provides good protection that also provides a lift for the camera lens so that it doesn't touch any surfaces.

I don't think the button issue is really that big to me. They do seem a little hard to press but with a little breaking into, they'll get better.

Plus the phone and this case fits in my Platinum Innocase Holster

The shipping was also fast. I ordered Friday evening, shipped Saturday and received today.

PayPal issue remains, thanks to those of you who assisted. I will sort it this weekend. In the meantime, you may still order and pay through Google Checkout or use SensoryCandy.com where there is a full range of payment options.

Thanks for the support.

[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Paypal is up and functional again, thanks for your patience.
[EVO 4G Accessories] upsstart:
maybe im just a wuss with weak fingers but I really dont like having to press my power button that hard. i feel like im hurting my baby =( i think i have to go back to soft silicone
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
just wanted to say, i got the clear/matte back case the OP is selling (from a different supplier though--sorry!) and it blows the Argyle TPU cases out of the water. I am MUCH happier with it. The back matte feels awesome in your hand, and it provides perfect protection for the camera. had to use the tape trick for the power button, but other then that-- best $3 i ever spent! i'll order another one as backup from the OP. just hope the matte stays clean... looks awesome with my white phone. :D
[EVO 4G Accessories] fitzbarrientos:
Take a piece of scotch tape and fold it over like 3 times.

Cut to the size of the power button.

Insert folded tape inside case's power button indentation.

No need to glue, tape or do anything to hold in place. Simply insert EVO in the case, the pressure of it will keep it steady.

Following this method, my power button is as easy to press with the case as it is without it.

[EVO 4G Accessories] T Mac:
I just pulled the trigger and bought one. I have an innocase II with holster now. I just don't like the loose fit and creakiness of the case and they never replace mine as they did others. ??? Hopefully the TPU fits in the holster snug and gives a similar feel and security without the looseness. Also I pocket the phone with the inno sometimes, I'm hoping the new TPU slides as well in the pocket.

Frosted Out Of Stock on all avenues of purchase

Really want the Frosted one, but they all seem to be out of stock. Any update on new shipment?:(

Edit: I guess I must have missed the frosted boat...Read in another thread that there is no plan for the frosted ones to become available again....It's probably buried in this thread somewhere too....I'll stay subscribed just in case....
[EVO 4G Accessories] upsstart:
Ok I'm happy with the case again! Thanks :)
[EVO 4G Accessories] morpheus6d9:
i have the same issue with my innocase II i contacted them they are sending me a new case
[EVO 4G Accessories] Itchiee:
I got one off these cases frosted and its awesome.

Again, hard buttons but its nice and slim and looks good.

Please consider a red clear cover with improved buttons, I'm good for two! Lol

Thanks
[EVO 4G Accessories] jamerican413:
I got my case a few days ago (black) and I'm loving it! It's my third case and easily my favorite of the three. The quality surpasses what I paid for it. I agree that you can barely tell there's a case on the phone at all.
[EVO 4G Accessories] twerk:
argh! why don't they have the frosted one? i couldn't wait so i just ordered the black. :(
[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
He's out of frosted ones and there are no plans to bring 'em back right now.
[EVO 4G Accessories] beandogg:
What can i do to convince you to make more frosties?
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Accumulate approx. 500 pre-orders with payment... ;)
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
I know of a wholesaler selling the frosted in quantites of 50. If there is some demand, I may order them. They can already be found on eBay for $3 shipped though. I got mine from http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280528567748 and it's the exact frosted one the OP was selling.
[EVO 4G Accessories] T Mac:
I got my case in and it is better than my Seidio Innocase II. The power button is a problem. I tried the tape with little improvement. I took an eraser and an exacto knife, I then shaved off some pieces of the eraser until I got a thin piece bigger than the size of the power button. The piece was about as thin as a piece of paper. I then cut the piece to the size of the power button and placed it into the cases formed button slot. I kept the cover upside down and put the top of the phone in so the piece wouldn't move. I tried this several times until I got just the right piece as to provide the easiest button touch and also not making the case buldge on top. I found the right piece and glued it into place. Voila! It works and looks perfect. Very happy now.
[EVO 4G Accessories] tlxxxsracer:
Two complaints I have about the case.

1: it is hard to push the power button. I feel like I press it but then I dont. Its quite annoying

2: I got my clear/frosted case, and the first thing I notice are these black dots in the molding. A few on the back, which look like it was black plastic in the clear/frosted, and a few on the clear portions. :mad:

See attachments below

Sure I may sound picky.. but Im like that :rolleyes: Or hopefully Im not the only one. Is there anything that could be done?? or who I can contact
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
Thankfully those black spots are in an area that will be hidden by the fact the evo is black, but that looks like an issue in the molding process, perhaps the OP could offer a cross shipped exchange.
[EVO 4G Accessories] thajacka:
i bought one of these frostys two days ago, so far no word from seller. i doubt it will ship for a while.
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
OK, so by a show of hands.... who would like to buy a Frosted case? Speak now, speak loud and speak in numbers....
[EVO 4G Accessories] Bang3r:
I would have, but I already ordered some crystal TPUs off of Ebay becasue I figured these frosties were long gone and no chance of coming back until you sold a bunch of black ones. Sorry bro...
[EVO 4G Accessories] RichTJ99:
I would like one or two but I was also planning on ordering from Ebay. I would order from you though if you let me know thats something in the works.
[EVO 4G Accessories] twerk:
i'm down for a frosty, i just got my black TPU case today and am quite happy with it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] cantar74:
Frosty Please!!!

I would like a frosty and a black. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Accessories] exSD:
Im getting my black one today... hopefully its not bulky.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
they arent, by far the thinnest case i've used on a phone ever. that being said, they still provide pretty good drop protection. certainly better then those best buy platinum piece of junks.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
you dont usually get shipping confirmations from Chinese sellers on ebay, as they dont use tracking numbers most of the time. I got mine in about 7 business days. I think you'll be surprised at how quickly it arrives... just my experience though, YMMV.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Childofthehorn:
Here Here!

Those best buy pieces of crap - dropped it the first day 2x's at the thing just popped open each time. Anti-protective if you ask me.
[EVO 4G Accessories] twerk:
This case has a pretty thin profile while still protecting the camera lens and the front face. I was quite surprised.
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Alright... a limited supply of Frost cases is on the way. Should be available early next week.
[EVO 4G Accessories] RichTJ99:
Can we pre order them?
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Sure...

I'll put them up later this evening for pre-order.
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
Put me down for 3 more cases, at 20 bucks shipped for 3 cases I cannot pass it up.

This way I can have black on those nice black tie nights, have the frosted for every day, and maybe even a nice high quality print sandwiched inside the frosted for a bit of color lol.

As for the case thickness. Its perfect,its what a case should be, protects the phone but adds no noticeable bulkiness.

You can see some quick shots here.

[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
the only problem i'm having with the frost is it's turning blue from putting it in my pants pocket, and i've only had it a week. i've had white cases turn a black tint in the past putting them in my black holster as well... so.. probably wont get another frost. too bad, i really liked it too, but it looks dirty already. I'll probably regret it, but i ordered this TPU hybrid: http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=44427&cat=4947 and also the clear & blue one, hopefully the later stays true to color. Search eBay if you want one of the hybrids, they are cheaper than daydeal.
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
This is not a problem with the case, this is a problem with a combination of sweat, dyes and proximity.

You sweat, you put your phone in your pants, swats helps the dye bleed and the TPU case sadly gets stained.

This is not a case flaw, sounds strange, but I have successfully used scotch guard in the past to stop that from happening, but on these TPU cases that may not be a good idea.

My suggestion, stop sweating, or wash your pants enough so they don't bleed.
[EVO 4G Accessories] twerk:
i ordered, just gotta play the wait game now!
[EVO 4G Accessories] jakmai:
pre ordered on ur site, thanks! i sent the shipping fees through paypal.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OneStepAhead:
stop sweating? ok i'll get right on that! it is a problem with the case, because the shiny ones don't do it. granted its also a problem with my pants and holster (the later of which i wouldnt try washing). my pants pockets are not sweaty... that would just be weird. i still love the frosted, but if I get another one I'll just have to be more careful (isnt that the point of a case though? that you dont have to be careful?) I don't think I'm going go over wash my jeans to save a $3 case, thats just silly.
[EVO 4G Accessories] ouhei:
Just ordered 1 of each, I wasn't planning on using a case at all but having the phone rest on the camera lens isn't comforting. Since this one is really thin and $5 I'll give it a shot.
[EVO 4G Accessories] exSD:
Holy hell... how the hell am I suppose to push the power button? My index fingers no longer have fingerprints :confused:

Edit - I also have two sharp little pieces that stick out on the top right and bottom left of the cover, right where the shiny and matte black parts meet. It looks like a little strip that sticks out. Is this normal?

Other than these two flaws which are concerning I'm happy with the fit!
[EVO 4G Accessories] fitzbarrientos:
Dude... this thread is full of solutions to those small annoyances... please READ.

~fb
[EVO 4G Accessories] exSD:
Dude, I know. I shouldn't have to wad up a piece of tape to make my phone functional. Just sayin.
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
The stop sweating was tongue in cheek.

But yes your pants pockets are going to get sweaty.

Look at how your pants are constructed, the pocket area is made of a light thin material (usually thin weave cotton) that sits against your thigh, depending on your undergarment of choice, boxers, briefs, commando, you get varying levels of sweat from your thigh that the cotton happily wicks away and right into whatever is in your pocket.

The fact that dyes bleed is an issue with many people, in my case I have to wash my new jeans and pants before I wear them at least 2 or three times as I am a big man and I sweat, meaning that if I do not wash them, then they end up dying my legs and butt and my wife makes jokes at my expense enough as it is already :eek:
[EVO 4G Accessories] exSD:
Buy some good jeans. :)
[EVO 4G Accessories] thajacka:
then dont buy it....no one else is complaining about a $5 case that requires slight modification....
[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
Levis, casual male XL, around 75 bucks a pair. I would not consider these "cheap".
[EVO 4G Accessories] fitzbarrientos:
Maybe go for the pre-washed next time?

;)

[EVO 4G Accessories] flyingwolf:
Tis not I who have this issue, was the guy I was posting too, I take the steps to eliminate the issue myself.
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Hey Guys,

I'll be moving operations to this site:

www.superphonecases.net

It will be a bit more robust and will allow for other brands as well. Thanks for all the support.
[EVO 4G Accessories] exSD:
Maybe invest in a gym membership instead of paying 75 dollars for Levis? You can get much better quality pants for 75 dollars also.

Are the frosted pre orders being shipped yet?
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Not yet.. they are due to arrive this week and will ship as soon as I get them.

alrighty! i'll check back later :D
[EVO 4G Accessories] althis:
received my black one, there are several (what look like) mold stubs which i attempted to sandpaper down but it didn't work very well so i ordered another hoping for better luck

i really like the material but the buttons are really tough to press so i might punch out the coverings on the buttons
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Have some additional TPU styles coming including a clear one and a purple one.
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Black, Frosted and a few Blue are back in stock.
[EVO 4G Accessories] tgigh:
Hey jeff is there any chance we can get pics of the new colors? Thanks!
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Hi,

Yes... give me a day or so... until then, imagine the Black or Clear but Blue ;)
[EVO 4G Accessories] starplaya93:
have you fixed the power and volume buttons? So that they are easier to press.
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
The cases are the same as the initial shipment. There are many easy fixes for those that wish.

Remember also that within a weeks time or so of normal usage, you should not have an issue.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Kongax:
I tried to order some of these cases but evocases.net isn't working and the cases aren't listed on sensorycandy.com

Are they still available? Are they on eBay maybe? Anywhere?
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Hi,

yes...here:

http://coverznlidz.net
[EVO 4G Accessories] RichTJ99:
What gives better protection, the rubberized or the TPU?
[EVO 4G Accessories] Kongax:
Awesome thank you, placing my order now
[EVO 4G Accessories] misticjeff:
Probably the TPU Style.. i believe it may offer more shock protection. The hard case is very thin and light and mostly used to protect against scratches, etc.

I've also re-enabled the redirect from evocases.net to coverznlidz.net so all is good in the world again.
