Im about to get the T-Mobile HTC Touch Pro2 and if you all have seen it the back is awful, At least in my opinion looks like an old phone look,
I was wondering if you all thought the Battery Cover Door for the EU one will be exact fit as the T-Mobile one,
I want the Silver back then the Mocha i think it is back.
I reviewed it in real life then compared it to videos they look exact to me i wouldnt imagine them changing the actual phone.
If anyone knows that'll be great if they're exact fit before i pay $25 for it.
Silver one:

T-Mobile One:
http://images.intomobile.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/htc-touch-pro2-t-mobile-wing-ii-4.jpg
The mute button looks the same, The usb curve on the bottom though you cant see it is the same,
I dont think the T-Mobile one has 2 mics but thats just a hole, Thanks sorry if been asked.
Gotta go to work thanks for the replies if any knows.
for the life of me, i simply can't figure out why telcos always go and mess around with the handset's default design. in almost every instance they make it worse.
the device looks really cheap an the T3D is an earlier version than the default device
yea I'd like to know this too..for when I buy the device on AT&T. I want it to look as much like the euro version as possible.
anyone know if the euro battery cover would fit on the US-branded units?
Personally I like the backs of the default generic/Euro version and the Verizon versioin (I like the world map they included in the back, what can I say)
And the front I like the most is the Telux one. Unfortunately there's no chance of changing the front I'm guessing
I am not sure where you buy that phone, but the Dutch (The Netherlands) T-Mobile branded HTC TP2 has the original silver cover.
I see the picture you linked, and I agree it is ugly!
(The original TP did not have the nice black diamond back and no LED Flash, but the TP2 seems to be identical besides the T-Mobile logo's and the ROM as the real HTC-TP2)
Just to let yall know ill be ordering the back on Wednesday when i get the Phone, Ill post if it fits or not its only 20 dollars,
I'll personally when i get paid change the front outer border, also they sell the chromish or whatever front faceplate for i think 20 dollars might have to check a few times.
The T-mobile back is just so blah and the square speaker isnt nearly as cool as the round one going all the way down.
Like I said ill post if it fits or not i went to review it at my T-mobile store and i watched video from my G1 and it looks identical on the actual fit of the phone,
Lets hope right? I have seen the Sprint World Map one thats amazing looking but that back wont be out forever.

I like that several US carriers went without chrome (Verizon's rim looks a little like black chrome). I don't really want shiny happy people to relate to me.
But generally speaking, you're right. Carrier's designfu is weaker than HTC's.
Unfortunately the world cover one won't fit on the normal gsm versions. At least I don't think it will as it must make more space for he 3.5mm jack.
The Sprint one looks weird... the brown is just ugly, but the back is an interesting design...
interesting good or interesting bad I haven't decided yet
Yea i forgot i about that, It looks the Exact same on the EU and T-Mobile one but the sprint is differnt from pictures that has been posted,
Reason why im waiting to order the back till wendesday is so i can do a detailed comparasion at home instead of at the malls T-mobile haha
Iv also seen custom Battery Back Covers floating around if any one is interested i think i seen them all on ebay/
??? Just wandering the site doesn't have the tilt2 listed is the tmobile one the closest?>

Might want to ask the source... I've done the same for Best Skins Ever, which I can't wait for... The damn Tilt 2 is slippery as a bar of soap.
https://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/htc-tilt-2-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php
That's the one I ordered. Says tilt2.
EDIT: Well I think it is. Thier site seems to have gone down while I was posting this.
The tilt2 doesn't show up under the AT&T manufacturer on the zagg website, but if you go to HTC and then, I think it is page 3 or 4 of the HTC phone model list the Tilt 2 is listed there.
From the looks of the diagram, there doesn't seem to be skin coverage for the chrome trim, which upsets me

I contacted BSE directly last week and had some back and forth emails with them. They were unaware that the tmo tp2 was different than Tilt2. They do not yet have a skin for tilt2.
I ordered one from Bodyguardz.com with a 10% coupon. I've never used them but heard decent things.

Interesting.. The person I spoke to clearly said they had one for the T-Mobile model but would have one for ATT/Sprint/Verizon in the next few weeks.

What are your impressions? Does it stick better than the one that came in the box? Stupid thing started to lift at the bottom within a two days for me.
It's sticking fine. No issues at all with lifting or peeling.
Seems to fit well, could be cut a little more accuratley (by hairs) but I think that is intentional to allow some user error in application.
It doesn't feel anywhere near as nice as the one that came in the box, much "stickier" to the touch when sliding your fingers around. Once you are used to it, it's fine though. I've got one small bubble on the back of it but all the mini bubbles that were on the front dried out after a couple days.
The biggest complaint, and not really a major concern of mine, is that it's got that rainbow streaking thing going on. If you aren't paying attention to it you don't notice it but when you do it really makes the amazing screen look very crappy. Most noticeably it shows up on the white at&t spalsh screen.
don't know if anyone has seen the case that charges the evo.

did you notice the back cover below it has an apple in the middle of it... Just thought it was kinda funny. Im holdin out for powermat to come out with there induction batteries.

Thanks I was actually looking for more information regarding this exact case. I totally overlooked it when I looked through that gallery. I was thinking about holding off for that case but may go with a normal pouch. I liked the fact that it seemed to be an all-in-one. Protects, Charges, Holster, and Kickstand. Based on the mock photo however I prefer the Evo's own kickstand as the clip being used as a stand defeats the point of placing it horizontally and it covers the default one. Also not sure whats going to charge the phone, I'm assuming a powermat though as sprint sells them in store. Guess I'll have to wait for more information on it.
i think its more like a battery case like the one for the iphone

I spoke with Mophie regarding a product for the EVO and they replied they make cases for Apple products exclusively and have no plans to enter other markets.
hey there might actually be a white evo, if you look at the charging case it's whit. not talking about the apple looking one but the one above it.

That was actually the prototype version of the Evo. It originally had a satin silver speaker grill around the camera and rear speaker however in the final release the removed it and went with the solidblack with peaking red backing instead.

What a great business decision. Align yourself with a single company, of course, that company has 4% of the marketshare on a carrier that blows monkey chunks, but hey, those that buy it are about as technologically clueless as most Luddites.
One more reason to never go apple.

As much as I hate it, It's not a completely boneheaded business decision. I mean, the iPhone is the largest single form-factor market. I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of new options soon. This is after all, Sprint's follow up to their last two "iphone killers" the instinct and the Pre. The EVO sold 3x more the first day than those two sold combined in their first weekend. You can't really blame them for taking a "wait and see" approach to preparing accessories.
Now that the EVO is a proven success (and a success with very little packed in the box) I'm sure they will be working quickly to supply the market.
I mean, my last phone, the vogue, came with a case, an AC charger, data cable, headphones, screen protection, dongles galore, extra stylus, etc. The instinct came with all that plus an extra battery.
I was wondering about all the reviews *****ing about no HDMI cable -- the EVO didn't even include headphones! The aftermarket for this phone will be very big. Eventually. Still not iPhone big, but big.
i really really want this case, i hope some info on it comes soon, seems like a wicked good case.

Looks fugly as hell, I actually like the slimness of the EVO w/o the girth.
I got a replacement from Amazon because my earlier defy had a random reboot problem. However now I have two phones with me and when I compare them, the newest replacement seems very plasticky. The black model of european seems to be like a bad paint job of white US model coated with a black paint. Also the volume rocker and power buttons make the plastic sound when pressed.
Is this the latest european model that is being released in the market. If yes, then most of you who bought these pieces have a sub-standard quality of this phone. I loved my old phone and the smooth finish with extra smooth buttons.
Any inputs from anyone?
I have a European version which exhibits none of the symptoms you describe.
Got mine at amazon(.fr) two weeks ago to replace my desire (it fell hard on the floor and the glass is now broken).
I see the exact same symptoms you describe: cheap power and volume buttons, and overall very plasticky look and feel. That was kind of a disappointment. Then i have been even more disappointed when i realized i wouldn't be able to flash custom roms - i miss my cyanogen.
Well, this is a kind of cheap android device and it sure feels cheap. Won't buy any another moto device nor would i recommend it, that's for sure. In the meantime i try to get the best out of it.
Your experiences sure are odd. If you had not both specified that you got your phones from Amazon, I would have thought you had used ebay and gotten some shoddy copies of a fine device.
That said, the phone does use a lot of plastic, but that is something that any review will tell you.
And who does not read at least one review before buying a device nowadays?
The same goes for what can be done, ROM-wise. I checked out XDA Developers before I clicked the final 'Purchase' button, so in that regard there were no surprises for me either.
Sure reviews tell you it uses plastic. But whatever you read, unless you experience it for yourself you don't really realize. Concerning the power and volume buttons, i didn't realize it wasn't normal until i read the op.
Beside, one only really reads what seems to matter at the time of the reading: this is a super-resistant device -- put it under water, throw it against the walls, hell, yeah, i'm all in. That's what got me on board, i didn't really thought about roms, and next time i will pay more attention.
So, yes, i'm a bit disapointed, but Android still is a great toy, even with *that* device.

I think you dint read my question quite right. What i opined was that my first defy which I just returned back to amazon was a gem. It has those buttons as soft as rubber and the body build itself was different. I used it for 4months and had to give it back to due some hardware problem. Now the one I got yesterday seems a completely different build. Now those are things that no review will be able to tell you right?. Something I thought I will share with other users. It might be that Motorola just started to produce this kind of cheap builds owing to surge in demand.
That said, no complaints on this one too. But i do miss that classic finish and soft soundless buttons.

Did you get a BT/BF or blue dot device from Amazon.fr?
I was planning on buying a Defy from Amazon but this is bad news...
Why is it so hard to get a decent Defy... First there was the earpiece problem, now this.
I got mine from clevertronic.de in mid November, think it wasn't even out on amazon.de by then.
I also thought that the power and volume button seemed rather cheap looking... and clacking (at the beginning I didn't know where that clacking sound came from, thought something was wrong with the drive or something).
But until now I thought that'd be normal so I didn't complain.
Really odd.
"I tought this was normal until I read this post"
I don't really understand these people complaining about previously-normal (to them) things. It's like when the fear spreads for a pandemic.
I have got a BT33 black european defy, and I repute the build quality excellent even for that price. Sure, it is plastic, but what did you expect from a €300 phone? Brushed aluminium?
Do you think that more expensive phones are all metal builds?
Just look at the Acer Liquid Metal: you can long see it from the pics it won't be nearly the same build quality of the Defy, that it will screak when held in hand. Despite the name, it only comes with a small strip of metal in the back. I also guess the front glass is not even glass, let alone gorilla glass. And that's for €50 more than a Defy.
Anyways mine has no creaking when squeezed in the hand, the back cover paint is soft-touch and well done, the front bezel is well built, glass is perfectly aligned, back cover not bulging, side covers intact, and the volume keys only make a slight click if I shake the phone.
You're all being too picky.
Mine is an all black European model. The buttons are plastic rather than rubber but they don't rattle about or click, and i've never thought of them as being cheap-feeling.
The paint finish on the screws did start to wear off pretty quickly though.
Also have the european black model, from november.
Plastic buttons that rattle slightly, and frontshell dont fit 100% with the backshell. Everything else looks quite expensive.
For around 300€ with the powerful hardware inside its a catch in my opinion.
Sent from my Defy
FWIW, T-MO USA just sent me a replacement Defy. Not the Euro model, of course. But the same high quality of my original and has the BT prefix.
Got mine from telstra aus. It's sweet. I've soaked it in beer and dropped it numerous times. Not a scratch!

What are you referring to with 'Euro model'? Do you mean the version with the white rubber section, as opposed to it being black?
I wasn't aware either was area/continent-specific, as both can be purchased in Europe.
If you are somehow implying that European build quality is less than.. well, the build quality of where-ever you are, I doubt there is any difference.
To strengthen my argument i am going to post snaps of the two variants tonight. Hopefully my wife should not have mailed it off to amazon.

I meant the phone mentioned above with the all black case. Not saying the Europeans don't know how to make good phones since they're most all made in China anyway (I hear there are some made in South America). But the poster was suggesting he had gotten a low quality phone. T-MO in the US only ships the phone with the white case, I believe.

Indeed, they're made in Asia - I would have suggested that as a counter, but seeing your reply, that's not necessary.
Ah, I see. I think some materials had to be different due to this phone being sturdier. Plastic and rubber can be very durable.

I'm not sure what you're referring to with BT/BF and "blue dot device", so i guess that's a no: i didn't get such a phone from amazon.
I'm looking for a good book/diary/wallet style case for my new T-Mobile Galaxy SII. Something like the BookBook case for the iPhone:
http://twelvesouth.com/products/bookbook_iphone/
or this case for the international Galaxy SII:
http://www.bizwinkorea.com/tablet-p...ine-leather-diary-wallet-type-case-cover.html
I'd kinda want it to look like a leatherbound book, but that's not as important as it actually being leather. I do want it to have pockets opposite where the phone sits to hold money, cards, etc.
Anyone seen anything like this?
None? Nobody's seen anything like this?
Honestly bro I looked high and low for a case like this and it just isn't out yet. There's an OEM product called "Samsung d30 t989 leather slip cover" coming out sometime in the next few months that can be found with Google if you search the quoted phrase. The one case I found like what your asking turned out to be an incompetent eBay seller labeling **** for the international gs2 like it would work for ours.

i don't like those cases, yes, they have their good uses, but... not my type
i can see many scenario and situation when & where i might want to use one, but it's not worth the cost
just search for something similar, you don't need an exact fit for those type of cases, look for another phone with similar size spec, and find it
any updates on this case?

This case is exactly what I want but it's only for iPhone and the measurements don't match.... our phones are too wide
I've been searching for the same thing. I found this one and I really like it. Although the camera and speaker holes are wrong. Might get it and try it out anyway..

I guess, given that there's no hole on the back for camera or speakers, it should work just fine. I don't know how much different our phone is from the original GS2.
Still, at $40, I guess I'd like to hear from someone who has my phone and has bought the case.
I emailed the seller and asked for some pics of the actual item. I'm sure it's an i9100, but here ya go. Looks nice none the less. I may pick one up.
I axially bought one of these and I really like it. It doesn't line up with the holes for the touch buttons perfectly, but my x-acto took care of that easily. Seems to be pretty good quality. I've been using it for about a month.
