I bought my first Defy just before Christmas.
Well I lost my Defy in the Indian Ocean on holiday a couple of weeks ago..... waterproof video
Problem is I really liked the Defy but is it really worth paying for twice £260 x2 ?
What is it like with 2.2 and will it ever get an open bootloader?
Convince me to get another one, because I can't decide.
BTW I'm now using a Nokia 5800, so it may not take too long before I get the urge.

Question is: What are alternatives and what features do you need? If you need waterproof video, the selection is probably limited . 260 Pounds sounds a bit expensive IMHO.

1.Don't know yet, 2. probably not.
I personally think the phone is worth it's money and it is a solid and reliable device, but because of the locked bootloader I will not buy a Motorola phone again and hence will not convinve you in buying one.
By elementary economics/accountings, your bricked phone is historical and shouldn't be factor in your decision

Why pay so much? On ebay you can find new for 200-220 euros. i found mine for 190
problem resolved
checked on Ebay and put in a bid for £215 on a new sim free Defy and won. Was checking out Samsung Galaxy S as well, they look nice. FTR Nokia 5800 is fairly rubbish, but worth £70.... hello Ebay
The moral here was that we shouldn't be too tight with our money. Or tie string on your phone when in the sea, you choose.

Don't know of any stores in SA as I am in Australia, but if you vote on the link specified in this thread;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051130
then Casemate may decide to make the case and you could then order it online
I had a xoom and sold it for the tab, The tab fits in xoom case i have, the camera cutouts on the back are wrong but at least its protected.
This is the case i have.

I have the same issue. Samsung South Africa dont even have the device yet. They are expecting it this month.
In terms of accessories, i have also looked around like a nutter, and i cant find anything.
An Incredible corruptions store in Eastgate said they should be getting this week. I will be checking tomorrow as its Friday.
Thanks, still no luck. Phoned Vodashop vodaworld again today,still nothing. Let me know about eastgate.

mine came with a case and it's pretty awesome, better than any aftermarket case that i've seen
Any of you guys from SA find a case???
I've had my tab for 3 weeks now and I still can't find anything. Got some family in the UK - seriously thinking about getting a few from ebay.co.uk and getting them shipped here.
Hi guys,
It fits in an Ipad 1 case. Needs cutouts for power and camera though.

Still no luck for me, Vodaphone shop said they would contact me when they do arrive. Very frustrating, they never seem to get it right in SA.
Saw a tweet from Samsungmobilesa that vodashop's should have accesories available mid June.

Did a few stops today while I was out; IC Eastgate say they will get stock next week, IC Greenstone say they have no clue when stock is arriving. So I popped in at Vodaworld; The Vodashop recons 4 - 6 weeks until they expect stock and the Samsung Mobile guys say that they have yet to get their hands on the device never mind the accessories....
have2have has got a cover listed for around R320. Only thing is that there is 7 - 14 days for delivery... placed the order and now I wait

Cant post a link... something about I haven't done enough posts ... go to have2have.co.za and do a product search for "P7100"
So far the service has been awesome. They email you every step of the order; I know that the package is now waiting to go to Washington Dulles Airport as soon as they finish the customs paperwork...
I had just made an order on ebay for a case....
Will update when it reaches...
Some cool cases that I come across too in China, but no idea on quality.
At least it is made specifically for the 10.1v!

Let us know how it is please
Yes please do let us know!
Also in SA, and have been searching for a case since I got the tab 10.1v.
But now since Vodafone has dropped/discontinued the V version, i'm a sad panda because it means that 10.1V accessories (or at least a case) will be VERY rare...
so if we can get at least 1 good case somewhere it will help us early adopters a lot
looking forward to your feedback (and thanks all for the links so far!)
ok, seeing as no one has either received their imported cases yet, or no one actually cares to reply... heres an update after we did some research the last couple of days.
(also posted on AndroidZA)
decided to import a case, seeing that it is pretty much the only option...
Apart from the importing fact, we also have just about 2 options of cases
I settled on this one from amazon uk : goo.gl/mbHcJ
They estimate about 3 weeks for delivery so we'll see... at least its quite cheap (though shipping isnt...)
Saw that Have2Have advertises a similar case (goo.gl/3bboh), but called them and their US supplier doesnt have stock, so thats a fail.
But here is another viable option, though it is VERY expensive, but looks gooood...
goo.gl/TjDtg
hope it helps someone. i'll update once i get that case.
[edit: sorry about the links, cannot post links yet apparently - so just copy & paste the goo.gl links into the browser]
case from ebay...
hey people,
the case i had ordered from ebay arrived and here are pictures of it.
fits the ports really well, meaning that i can use all my ports.
microfiber material but feels not as nice as the apple one.
am quite happy even though it is a little loose (due to the material being slightly stretchable). can stand too!
pictures!

Thanks, how much did it cost, and when did you you order it? It looks decent enough and we cant really afford to complain, except for the fact that I really would like a screenguard for the tablet as well.
Hey guys,
I bought a S2 damaged from several falls. I want to replace the plastic myself. The screen itself is fine and so is the battery cover but I would need to replace the plastic around the loudspeaker and the silver rim, which is badly damaged.
Is it possible to replace this yourself? If so could someone link me to a reliable site to buy the replacements. I live in Slovenia (Part of EU) so shipping shouldn't be a problem.
Also any tips wouldn't hurt!
Thanks!
You should know by now that shipping is always a problem here even if we are in the EU because some people still don't consider us as a first world country so they simply don't send stuff to us.
To answer your question... Did you check Amazon and Ebay? You can also find a service manual if you search for it. It was posted here once or twice.

Exactly wht came to my mind
Why does that matter? It's obvious he got it at a a much more decent price than he would a new one. Be sure to check on your warranty before disassembling the device. Odds are you'd lose it. Perhaps you could try and get it repaired by an authorised person, for all we know, it could be at a modest price too.
Hi!!
Today i search on ebay for a cool case and i find original housing in white and grey!!! But... are too expensive :s about 50 US
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Ba...720987?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f179724db
This is the cheapest that i found with worldwide shipping (im from chile, thats why my english sucks).
Cheers!

Hhahaha i will buy one to test it and give to xda community some info about it.
So, has anyone bought one of these? My HOX fell down on hard asphalt a few days ago and the white housing got dents on three corners. After I got a proper pouch I would like to replace it because I plan to use the phone for at least two years. To be honest, I feel a little uncertain about ordering stuff on eBay from Chinese people. But so far I haven't seen an alternative.

WOW...wat you got against the Chinese bro. I admit that China does make cheap ripoffs of the real deal. But if the titles says its legit, you can buy it, and if you dont think its legit, just ask for moneyback.. Why you gotta make this so racist
How easy is it to replace the back cover? I mean, does it just come off and the other one goes on?
Its so easy, find some videos on youtube about this.

There are several sellers on eBay selling the same product. Lowest price was $47 shipped.
Now all we need is someone selling a deeper one with a high capacity battery

Hey, no offense intended. I've got nothing against the Chinese in general, e.g. I've got a very cool Chinese colleague. But I wondered if it is so easy to get your money back from a guy in China if he sells you a crap or fake product when you live in Europe. I would have asked the same if the housing had been offered by someone from Argentina or South Africa, simply because it's a different country far away and I have no experience with ordering from there. Calling this racist is nonsense.
Has anyone bought this yet? I want to but I'm concerned about the quality.

Its not racist, the Chinese have form for knocking off everything and everything, even down to forging cancer drugs that instead of helping with the disease help to speed it up instead.... Those damn things have found their way into legit doctors surgeries.
So no, commenting on the fact the chinese regularly flog fake bunk is fact not racism.
Has anyone bought this yet?
I ordered this past weekend. I'm in Canada so it may take a week or two.
Hong Kong is not part of China so don't worry . I was told by a seller it was original by HTC so I should expected it to be exactly the same. I don't know whether to be assured or to find loads of flaws from the building process .
interesting. I've been waiting to see the inside of the case. Some places have been saying the body is manufactured by machining but that looks a lot more like an injection moulded part. Maybe a small mount of post machining / polishing.
the question is, how hard is it to apply it yourself to the device ?!
saw a couple of video's on how to replace the housing.....from the looks of it, scary
That's just me :cyclops:

He's gonna send me some pics when he's home later. Apparently has 2 small scuffs at the top otherwise is fine and has all the cables etc.
And ummm apart from paying by PayPal perhaps but you'd have to cover fees if you're worried. I'm not sure? But he ain't like that, he just don't need it any more, i set it all up for him too so it all runs and works good. Probably just needs the latest pac flashing by now if you stayed with that rom
