Currently, I have a Body Glove on my Inc, and I'm really looking to find a more slim fit case. Mainly I need something that will protect the camera, but keep the slimness of the phone there.

I was thinking of the Incipio Feather, or the Case Mate Barely There...but I can't find any reviews on them.

Thanks guys
[Droid Incredible Accessories] j006:
I have the Incipio Feather and let me tell you it is definitely the slimmest I've ever seen. It gives VERY little protection except for maybe preventing the back and two sides from scratches. You absolutely cannot lay the phone face down since it doesn't extend up past the glass. I actually bought one just to make a car mount with it. I glued a Garmin windshield mount onto to back of it and it works really really well for this, since the phone can be inserted / removed from the Feather quite easily, yet it is secure. When I get into the car I just snap it in and go!

If it's minimal you want go for the Feather. I currently use the Seidio Innocase II Surface when I'm outside the car, and the quality / protection is great while still being not bulky. I've tried about 5 or 6 and settled on the Innocase.

Cheers
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mistaj:
+1 for the Seidio Innocase II. I've had mine for about a week now and I really like it. It's only 1.1 mm thick. Might be just what you're looking for.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] moviemogul:
Hmm, I had Seidio for my Storm, but that was a few years ago. The case ended up breaking on me. It was the Innocase 360. How is the build quality of the Innocase 2?
[Droid Incredible Accessories] SynbiosVyse:
I have the Innocase II and it scratched up the border of my phone. Pretty dumb case, if you ask me.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] Nunoriffitti:
Seidio HTC Droid Incredible ADR6300 Innocase II Surface...has been an awesome case for me as well...good luck
[Droid Incredible Accessories] kekspernikai:
I'm using the Innocase II also. It's been a great case so far. Not perfect, but it's slim and seems to protect my phone pretty well. I'd love an Otterbox that was this thin somehow.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mikesincredible:
my speck case from verizon came in, slim and protects the camera, and is raised about .1 mm so you can lay the screen down..no bulk.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] moviemogul:
Wow...I never knew those existed!
[Droid Incredible Accessories] boomboxgneration:
I have the Case-Mate "Barely There" case and I love it. I spent like 2 months being indecisive because I wanted something that wouldn't make my phone bulky while still providing protection without shattering like some thin cases (I've dropped it 2 or three times now and its protected my phone every time). I also wanted a decent amount of grip on the case but not to the point where it grabs the inside of my pocket like some gel cases. It also sits almost perfectly flush with the camera lens in the back, providing some protection from the glass being the first thing to hit a surface every time you put the phone down.

The Incipio Feather case looks almost identical to the barely there case but people seem less confident in it's ability to actually protect the phone if it is dropped..

I've also heard a lot of people complain about the Innocase's scratching their phone, which seems counter productive...

Just my two cents considering you seem to want the same features I wanted in a case.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] Spart12:
I use the Innocase, and I dropped my phone on the street, and it landed on the very corner of the phone. Figured it was a goner but it actually did a great job. Love the thin case.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mahsan988:
Wow! Case-Mate looks amazing!! I might buy it
[Droid Incredible Accessories] ssmcd:
I've got the Seidio Active and i love it. Dropped the phone tons and not a scratch. Protects the camera lens well too.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] coffeedragon:
Big +1 for the Innocase Surface. Very solid, great soft touch exterior and nice padding inside. Not the absolute thinnest but adds very little bulk and has a very low profile bezel around the screen, unlike some cases which make it hard to hit buttons near the edge of the screen.

I previously had the Rocketfish case that Best Buy pushes on everyone. Got it thrown in for free with the phone after bullying the rep into throwing in some freebies. Glad I didn't pay for it! The soft touch coating started to peel off after about ten days, one edge kept coming open and when I did drop the phone just once, the case completely popped off. Complete $hit if you ask me.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] arkayh:
Been in the feather about a month now. Several drops, although nothing too extreme, and so far so good. Love the barely there feel!
[Droid Incredible Accessories] spin0ut:
I was lucky enough to get a seidio case for 10 bucks and out of 5 cases its the best one yet
[Droid Incredible Accessories] cakaros:
Innocase is def awesome. I love it.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] trishuhh:
Just got mine in the mail. I will upload pics as soon as I get my new battery door in the mail (tomorrow?)
[Droid Incredible Accessories] thecolonel20:
Innocase surface here too....I agree it is the best combination of low profile/good protection I have seen. It doesn't interfere with wiping near the screen edge at all, but keeps the screen from touching a surface if u lay it down face down. Kinda feels like the actual incredible to the touch as well. I did a ton of research and am very happy. Thanks to everyone in this forum - ur input was super helpful in researching a case.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] dbarber996:
The Griffin Reveal case might be what you're looking for: http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/reveal-htc-incredible

Someone here on the forums even did a youtube video review of it.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] myles7701:
Slim case

I've actually been pretty happy with the gel case available directly from Verizon. I kept hoping that iSkin (unable to post the link since I am a new member here)would have come out with a case for it. I LOVED their cases back in my iPhone days... but sadly, they've chosen not to.. their loss... :(
[Droid Incredible Accessories] jacobsjg1:
Another vote for innocase- it has saved my phone from getting scratched up a number of times and keeps things small. No problem dropping into my pockets.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] phaze one:
I have this case too. Its the best phone case I've used. Highly recommend it. Doesnt add much bulk at all.

[Droid Incredible Accessories] davidmcw:
Don't know what it's called, but the Verizon two-piece case is great for me. It's in the Verizon stores. Half snaps on the phone (with edges that protect the screen) and then it slides into the belt clip. I stuck Velcro on the back and on my dash and have the best car mount I've ever had (for 99¢!)
[Droid Incredible Accessories] mtown_cyclone:
I have this one and love it. Easy on/off when you use with the cradle.

Ugh, can't post links yet. It's the Innocase II Surface
[Droid Incredible Accessories] watt9493:
The smoked or clear tpu ebay case looks to be really good. Gonna be getting one in about a week.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] Thoss:
Throwing in my vote for the Seidio Innocase. Its about as slim as I would go with still covering the front edge of the bezel. Tough too, mine has been on my phone nearly a year and still is in great shape
[Droid Incredible Accessories] GRZLA:
I love my Seidio Innocase II.
[Droid Incredible Accessories] cpupeli1:
I've had two Seidio Innocases for my DINC and both have done well. My first one fell and cracked a corner of the case off which wasn't a big deal. My second had the infamous shedding problem with the case flaking off. (no reponse from Seidio about it)

Having said that, I DEFINITELY suggest the Griffin Reveal case. It's clear plastic back is equally hard/protective as the Innocase and best of all its a one piece case. The rubber boarder has a good protective grip to it as well. Only problem is some dirt/dust gets caught behind the case, easy fix.
[HD7 General] MrLeche:
Hi all,

I just unplugged my sim from my X1 silver, and plugged it into my HD7. and then, after two hours...

1. how do you actually sync your phone contacts from ms outlook 2007 to it? I tried downloading zune, but nothing. The freakin' thing doesn't even have a manual.

2. I thought I won't encounter a problem since it's HTC and since it's WM7, and since my PC is win7 x64. But oh boy, this is getting in my nerves.

3. WM7 doesn't know how find a hidden (SSID) WIFI. I mean,.. Dang!

compared to any wm phones, just plug the hell into your pc, get wmdc, and then voila. 5 minutes tops.

XD
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
WP7 is indeed a different bird from WM. Hidden SSID is a known limitation, and hopefully gets addressed with the coming update.

I assume your outlook is not connected to exchange? If so, piece of cake, if not, you'll likely prefer (or not) to use a hotmail connector for outlook. This essentially creates a cloud-based sync.
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
Oh, and the manual is inside the box in a little pocket.
[HD7 General] MrLeche:
I managed to upload my msoutlook 2007 contacts to the cloud using OC32bit. almost a piece of cake. But, I'm having a hard time getting it to my phone.

When I try to add an account, it says windows live account is already added. but when I tap people. There nothing in the contacts list. None.

When I try to login to windows live via pc I can see all the contacts from there.

I... just hate it.

Talk about innovation, talk about the future. XD
[HD7 General] tempest2112:
Use Outlook connector and a hotmail account and everything works perfectly.
[HD7 General] MrLeche:
Hi,

Thanks! I manage to do it now. After spending a night my phone book has everything on it now(contacts wise). Too lazy to repeat it for calendar, lastly, I missed activesync so much that even your one note syncs to your wm.

I'm having thoughts on returning the phone and getting the android version (desire or X10) because of these:

1. hd7 only installs apps on what windows wants and not what YOU want.

2. it doesn't support pdf file for book reading, document reading.

3. I heard it doesn't open .doc .xls and any lower .doc files. (old docs still exist today unconverted)

4. I can't put files on the phone "ala USB flash disk style" I mean where's the plug drag and go, when you use the phone business wise. how do you intend to use the 16G space? (for movies or music; given the rumored battery life?)

Everything we do on our wm phones aren't easy to do on this wp7 anymore, I haven't reviewed at it before I grabbed my HD7 since I said to myself what do I have to worry about? I have grown from WM5, WM6 and WM6.1, what could go wrong?

I dunno I mean I hope I'm not babbling, I can't google if i don't open pocket ie and type google, I can't install opera, I can't browse flash sites I mean, youtube isn't the only streaming video out there. I can't install my garmin mobile xt, I can't install java app, I can't explore the contents of my phone. I mean this is freakin' alien windows i'm using. I don't even know if I can find my phone on over the local area (win7) network or homegroup.

With all the "I can'ts" I said. I thought I'd better off android!. XD
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
1. hd7 only installs apps on what windows wants and not what YOU want.

If you mean the app store is limited, yes it is. It's growing though.

2. it doesn't support pdf file for book reading, document reading.

Download the Adobe Reader from Marketplace. Free.

Haven't tried #3.

4. I can't put files on the phone "ala USB flash disk style" I mean where's the plug drag and go, when you use the phone business wise. how do you intend to use the 16G space? (for movies or music; given the rumored battery life?)

Zune. It's just a matter of figuring it out. It's different, to be sure. They also want you to utilize cloud based storage more. The offer free SkyDrive space included with your live account, and most of the MS apps can access that space. Other apps, like the eBook reader Freda, can connect to a DropBox account. Then there is Sharepoint.

I can't google if i don't open pocket ie and type google

Open up IE then press the capacitive Search button. Instantly takes you to Google.
[HD7 General] MrLeche:
I just found there's a google app in the markeplace too? and yes it grows every hour, its almost endless... pretty neat!

If you say it's just a matter of figuring it out, I hope I can figure it out with an option NOT to upload it on a cloud, since c'mon not all places in the world have super fast internet connection, I don't want uploading an entire folder up there then downloading it to my device.

And even if the chevron thing would work on my device, It would void my warranty so I wouldn't try.

After 2 days with my new phone, I feel much more comfortable with it now. I hope it would get even better.
[HD7 General] MrLeche:
Gotta follow this up since I don't want to start another similar thread.

I have another question:

The phone contacts (people) always have you on top named "Me"

question is, How do you actually link a contact to "Me"?

I just noticed it now that somebody asks for my bank account and of course, I'll look for it in my notes within my ms outlook contact under my name. I just found out that my name in my hd7 doesn't have a picture and doesn't have a facebook link(not that the FB link is too important), etc. and when I click the link icon in the bottom middle, I can link it to any other contact entry in my phone except "Me".

Technically speaking, the contact named after me in my phone is treated as another person. I tried signing on to windows live, check my contact there, found my name and the options I have is "add as a friend" which is really beginning to sound funny.

Long story short, I need to link my ms outlook 2007 contact(myname) to the owner of the HD7 phone which is me, so I wouldn't retype everything and delete the synced "myname" account since if i do so that would be deleted in my PC. I gotta have 'em both. but I wish I just could link it to my phone's "Me" account.
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
That's a toughie.

So the "Me" contact syncs up with both your Windows Live account and your Facebook account (which you add in services --> email and accounts, NOT the blue facebook app)

I don't see a way to sync the Me contact with another outlook contact.

You may want to take the notes in your Outlook contact and copy them to your Live stuff.
[HD7 General] frontieruk:
that's dependant on carrier... I get yahoo, you could get the google search app from the market or pin google from IE to the start so you can launch straight to google.
[HD7 General] MrLeche:
Yeah, not the blue facebook app. and I think I'll just have to deal with it having two seperate accounts the Me, and my outlook unlinked.

@frontieruk

Speaking about the search button, it is getting annoying when you actually hit the button accidentally. I hope someday a double-press (double-click) fix would make it possible.
[HD7 General] biernes_atrece:
I had a similar experience except that I got the "Me" where it's suppose to be the first time. Learning little by little, I guess Hotmail (windows live) is actually kinda cool.

Here's a good place to start. (in case yo haven't found it yet); Hotmail Tips

[Galaxy Tab General] kenyu73:
I just picked up the GT at BestBuy for $399. The sale price is $499, but reduced to $399 if you sign up for the $20 month-to-month plan in the store. So, you're actually picking it up for $419 if you cancel your 3G after the first month.

I think the deal ends 1/29, but check out this weeks flyer. I was holding out for a better deal then the orignal $599. Granted, there's a bunch of newer tabs coming in a few months, but maybe I can wait for those tabs to come down in price too!! ;)
[Galaxy Tab General] gigadigit:
I got one from Costco for $399 also. Went with them because they had a 90 days return policy. Did you have to pay the $35 Activation fee that you are supposed to get back as rebate from Verizon? Also, how can we get that $60 in movies free? Did you get that?
[Galaxy Tab General] kenyu73:
I dont think I got hit with an activation fee...!?! I hope not. That may be just a Verizon store activation, I think BestBuy waives activations fees.

I'm not familiar with any other bonuses or extras.
[Galaxy Tab General] greyhulk:
Wow. he's right. I just checked Bestbuy's weekly ad and the deal is legit. Figures, considering the fact that I just paid $400 for mine off some guy on Craigslist. I knew they were going to come down in price, I just didn't think it would be that fast. I would think that the Verizon one would require a contract at that price, but apparently not.
[Galaxy Tab General] Anderdroid:
Did anyone actually get one of these for $399? I think I'm going to swing by today.
[Galaxy Tab General] Rnd0209:
I just returned my iPad and got the Tab for $399.00 on Verizon at Best Buy! I could not resist! its a 14 Day return policy and i may (May) return the tab for the Xoom. Oh and there is no activation fee
[Galaxy Tab General] conan1600:
Yup. I bought my tab feom bestbuy. Verizon. 399
[Galaxy Tab General] s01932:
Got mine at Costco

Yup got mine at Costco 399, no contract whatsoever. They originally activated it for the month to month plan and they told me I could call and cancel that day, I called that night and they said it required data, so instead they disconnected the line and I just disabled the vzw data, its basically a wifi tab now. No activation fee, no data charge and 90 day return policy so when new tab 2 comes out or *cough* *cough* iPad 2 who knows what might happen.

I'm new to the Galaxy Tab anyone want to point me in the direction of a good custom ROM? I'm not sure about those locked bootloaders on the GSM tabs does that affect the vzw tabs? I plan to use this in my car as a video and music device with my stereo deck, it seems to fit my radio slot perfectly. I have so far rooted and modified the WPA_Supplicant file to tether my tab to my iPhone via MyWi.
[Galaxy Tab General] d4yd4y:
They have the Sprint version for the same price, difference is it has a White back versus the Black back of the Verizon one.

I picked up the Sprint Galaxy Tab with the 2GB $30 month to month plan. I was thinking about canceling after the first month, but I might just keep the plan.

I love this thing.:)

I already have the Captivate, but the screen size makes it a killer piece of hardware.

It should hold me over for a long while until the Dual Core 4G Android tablets come out, even then with the Xoom being $800, I'll pass.;)
[Galaxy Tab General] kenyu73:
That's why I bought the Verizon Tab. I passed last year when they were $599, but couldn't resist getting it for $399 at BestBuy. I sold my 32gb iPad and my Archos 70 on Craigslist for almost $600 between the two, so I'm in the (+) for $200 (=.

I'll grab one of the Android 3.0 tablets in the summer when they drop in price some. I'm sure they'll probably be on 3.1 by then only because 3.0 was redesigned from the ground up(according to Google). There's bound to be a few critical bugs and a patch or two soon after.
[Galaxy Tab General] Lindarose84:
How did you get the Sprint Tab at $399? Where did you purchase? I'm assuming you bought it used from a third party? I picked it up from Sprint at the $299 price for the 2 year contract on the $30 plan (didn't know you could go month to month unless you bought it used off someone else).

I'm still within the 30 day return period so I'm trying to figure if it's worth it to get the Verizon Tab or just stick with Sprint. The only thing killing me is I don't want to be tied down to a contract.
[Galaxy Tab General] conan1600:
Verizon offers month to month, no activation fee, 20 bucks a month for 1 gig, 399 price tag on unit. Id take that sprint one back and purchase the verizon tab. Cause you so know when the new tabs come out your not gonna wanna be tied to a 2 year contract. It'll eat ya alive :P

Course if im not mistaken sprint charges a 70 dollar restocking fee if you return thier tab. Seems I read that somewhere but I could be mistaken
[Galaxy Tab General] gigadigit:
Regarding the activation fee, did you have to pay it at Costco? How did that work? Did Verizon refund you the fee?
[Galaxy Tab General] s01932:
I didn't pay it at all, Costco had me activate the service month-to-month in the the store by calling Verizon, but when I got home to cancel the service, the representative said the plan is required and I asked how do i get rid of the data then? I was told they would have to disconnect the line, and I asked if their would be any fees applied and he said there shouldn't. So long as I do not see any bill a month from now I think im safe :D.
[Galaxy Tab General] kenyu73:
3G is assigned a cell "number" so you can use 3G at the month-to-month rate. You cant receive calls with it, but you can receive text messages according to your Verizon package (which is 10 cents per msg by default i think).

There is no contract, you CAN cancel any time and YES they do need to deactivate your 3G number to cancel the service which is free.

However, if you want 3G back on it again, there may be a activation fee.
