I bought one of these for my MyTouch3G last year, and thought it was the BEST case I've ever had for a phone. I'm desperately wanting one for my MT4G, but haven't found one anywhere online yet. Anyone know where we can get these? I bought mine on eBay for $4.99 and free shipping from Hong Kong, and I got it in less than 2 weeks.
Here's a link to a current eBay auction for the MT3G version so you can see what I'm talking about...

I agree, those are the best cases I've used. Had one for my original MyTouch and loved it. Hopefully they will get in gear and make them for the 4G now.
That's like the TPU cases others have mentioned, and been on the lookout for on eBay.
I like how they're flexible, but not plain silicon, and maintain the profile of the phone as much as possible.
I gotta pick up something pretty soon. I'd consider just a Phantom Skinz, but with a 3 year old who loves Angry Birds running around the house I need something that offers some drop protection.

i had been looking for these aswell. i bought one for my curve last yr from this guy. clicked this post in hopes to find that you had found them lol. i sent the seller an email asking about these for the 4g. ill check back in if/when he responds
How well does that case absorb a shock if the phone is dropped? I really like how its molded really well to the body-lines of the phone and doesnt look thick. Let us know asap when you do find out if they sell them yet! Thanks!

Dear cw54o,
we will be getting these shortly in the next 1-2
weeks

That's awesome news about him getting these cases in the next 1-2 weeks. I'm on my second T-Mo case, and I really haven't been too thrilled with them. Way too much money IMO for cases like these, and I'm considering returning/exchanging my newest one (soft rubber sleeve with white plastic backing) because the rubber attracts WAY TOO much dust.
These cases are STILL not available anywhere yet. Total BS!

yeah i knw, i just checked his ebay store and nothing
There's Epik cases on eBay for the HTC HD7, didn't that come out the same day or about the same timeframe as our MT4G? If so, why hasn't there been an Epik case made yet for our phone?
i have no clue, but on a side note tmble has these type of cases at their stores. im tempted to get 2 of them. they have a sale going on 2accessories will land u 20% off and 3 will get u 30% off, but their 20 a peice....
T-Mobile does not carry the Epik branded cases at their stores. They don't have any cases that even come close to the Epik brand.

they arent 'epik' cases BUT they are TPU cases, which is exactly what the epik cases are. they have them for several phones including the mytouch 4g. if i go back ill take a pic and show you. if it werent for the price difference i would have gotten it. but yeah im pretty sure a youtube search would confirm it.
DCMugen88 posted black and clear cases today. I got black
awww daewond3r beat me too it i was too busy trying to figure out if i wanted clear or smoke blk and put in my order to post the link lol but here u go to those who are looking for it

Thanks for the link. Ill be ordering a few. Great prices! i was close to ordering some case on amazon for 24.99 + shipping.
Sucks that these won't be arriving until after xmas though.
Nice! Do you think the epik cases will still fit if you have the CF Chromatics on? My little girl puts a beating on my phone while playing with talking Tom . Ordered anyway, you cant go wrong with the price! Thanks for the heads up fellas!

Are these the bendable gel cases they had for the MT3G? It doesn't really specify that anywhere on his auctions, and the pictures make it look more like a hard plastic or hard gel/plastic case.
Hey SGS2 owners,
Does anyone know of an Australian re seller for these cases?
I am going down to the snow in a few weeks and wanted to take some nice 1080p video while i was down there and make sure its nicely protected.
Or does someone know of another case that would help?
Cheers
im from Australia, i brought a Case-Mate Tough Case for my SGS2 from my local Joyce Mayne Store
hope that helps...
sort of helps .. nearest Joyce Mayne is about 103kms away haha
Might give them a ring and see.
Cheers
i bought my Case-Mate Tough Case directly from the manufacturers website
had no issues with payment, shipping etc and got the case within 2 weeks
i brought mine for $29.95 from my local Joyce Mayne Store, the screen protecter that you get with the case did not fit the SGS2 it was to small and the cutouts were wrong so i took it back and showed them and they gave me a free 3 pack of Belkin screen protecters worth $15...

I thought I was the only one. In fact, I thought I was just too stupid to figure out which way it was supposed to go on.
I'll contact Case Mate. I bought mine direct from their site.
Hello everyone!
Ebay and the local stores have hardly any accessory for the samsung galaxy note. Even if there are stores that do deal in accessories for this device, I have not heard about them.
I thought this would be a perfect platform to discuss about accessories for the note and help map the stores for people who don't have much idea (like me).
Inviting ideas and opinions, please.

As for me, I have:
- a decent P250 screen protector (not bad for the price) | Glossy | Finger print magnet | they did not have the matte one
- sad and boring looking jelly-case (does the job though). | P250 as well | Some reviewer was taking about some Samsung original (flip top) covers, but it was hardly any info as I could not find where he got it from.
Tomorrow I will check out the zagg invisible shield store at SM Megamall (I guess there is one). And will hit back to the topic with the pricing and quality.

Accesories for Note
I bought a decent screen protector in Greenhills for Php150. First I look around, there were many of them selling the same screen protector but the cheapest I could find of the same brand was Php150. Sorry I forgot the name. Matte and gloss available. Just look and ask around in Theater Mall GH, not in ViraMall GH as it is more expensive there.
Also I was able to find a realook screen protector matte or gloss (take your pick) also somewhere in Theater Mall GH, it comes with 2 screen protector, cleaning cloth, alcohol something (I guess for cleaning) and its around Php600-800. Looks legit. She even gave me a calling card of the GM of the company of realook here in Phil. She tried to sell me only one piece of the shield that is already open for Php600. Good thing I read at the back of the package that it comes with 2 pcs of shields. I got it down as low as 500 and she still agreed to sell it to me. I didn't bite.
She said it will be available soon so I will be back there next time. I think the one she tried to sell me was only a sample.
For casing in GH, just jellys. Try looking in the internet, there are already a lot of cases available and with high quality. They ship in the Philippines. I am just not sure about the feel that is why I am still waiting for legit cases to be available here so I can try it out first before buying.
For the flip cover, if you buy directly from Samsung or from any legit stores, the cover comes with it. At the back of the package, it writes 'Not for sale.'
the note and the accessories for it should've arrived on the same date. its really hard to protect a big phone/tablet from scratches and all.
waiting for otterbox to arrive, its taking too long
I have seen otterbox for iphone, it looks good. I will wait and see if it becomes available here in Phil for the note. I hope it arrives soon. I have been using the free flip cover, its good but it offers no protection for the sides.

Had gone to megamall today... saw the flip cover from samsung at wellcom (guess that's the name of the store). But it was free with a purchase of a new note (P34990). They were not selling it separately though, which was sad.
The samsung mobile store was crowded as hell. Wanted to check out a store unit of the note and compare it to mine (for the screen issues), but I could not (other people checking the unit). Not a single sales person paid attention to what I needed (a flip cover). Was disappointed, but that's howsamsung operates around the world, I guess.
Zagg Invisible shield was also there. The sales people over there were too busy to notice my presence (though I am 6ft tall). Did not get to know if they had something for the note. But I did look at the price (if available). P1000 for the back part. P800 for the screen. And P1500 for the whole unit. Is kinda expensive, but hey, protection comes at a premium.

Yes! There was a store in the Technohub! Any news on the Flip Covers for the device? Any one selling it in loose?
I passed by Zagg in Megamall last Friday with my Galaxy Note. The lady said she didn't have any shields yet for the note... so, i opted for a screen protector which cost me 200 pesos (at BSA International) and a stupid looking blue jelly case.
In ebay, there are some really nice leather cases... especially those that are made in Korea. A bit pricey though... ranging from $35 to $75... shipping not included.

May be that is why they were not paying attention to me! they might have seen me with a note in my hands and thought that they cant help me anyway...
About otter box, Nothing available as yet! this is getting pretty sad... screen issues doubled up with lack of accessories... Just a silly scratch guard and a stupid jelly case over here too!
i bought a capdase copy + gloss protector for just 150php..im still lurkin around for some leather flipcases..
ebay casing nad screen protectors
Hey guys!
I have been checking in ebay philippines with Location filtered to Worldwide.
There are a lot of sellers selling decent casing for galaxy note. There is the Black S line Silicone TPU Skin Case Cover for less than PhP200, also there is the aluminum cover that looks sleek selling for PhP1,500. For screen protectors, I haven't gone back to GH to check on the realook screen protectors but I'm sure by next year they already have that. I was there late November and they already have it opened that's why I didn't buy it.
Also, ebay (filtered worldwide) is selling flip covers but it is really expensive with price at least PhP2,000.
Thanks!
I have only seen matte screen protectors around. They make the white of the screen look sparkly and as such would like a clear protector instead.
To those guys who bought the clear/glossy screen protectors, what store/mall did you buy them from and how much did you guys pay for them?
How is the quality as well? Does it affect the screen that much?
And to those who have bought matte screen protectors, have you had any matte screen protector that did not affect the whiteness of the screen (did not make is sparkly)?
Thanks.

By any chance, do you have any pic of this? I'm interested. Where are you based? Thanks.
Btw, for others asking about the case with NOT FOR SALE tag. I was able to buy one for P800 at Cyberzone SM Cubao. (Yes, I'm that silly. Lol!) Forgot the name of the shop but its just near the escalator, beside Tylex.
Got an original samsung flip case for the note at GH for 800php. This however still leaves the sides unprotected so I had to use a jelly case, only I cut the sides to accommodate the flip part. It doesn't look ugly as it sounds, and does the job until we get invisishield for the Note.

Globe APN
Hey guys! Sorry if I am in the wrong thread, but I think this is where all the Note users in Phil are posting.
Quick question: Were you able to activate your Globe 3g on your Note? Please share the APN settings. I am having trouble connecting to 3g. I am a Globe prepaid user and my sim card is I think 4 to 5 years old.
Many thanks!

I use globe too. And NO! There is no support for the Note yet! I tried sending a message to get the settings and the reply was something like 'handset not supported'...
I tried taking to a globe customer rep, he gave me a few settings over the phone... they did not work either!

Spoke to Spigen's customer service, they told that cases for the LOG are in the works. So far they only have the crystal screen protector out. But, as I was told, Crumena, Valentinus, Ultra Thin Air, Ultra FLip, and Neo Hybrid cases are in the works. So SGP fans, sit tight and relax.
I keep checking eBay for a case so I can have everything set for when I get the phone. I imagine they'll be along soon, being such a high end device people will want protection from day one. Like a kid on Christmas waiting on this device!
Got mine from ATT yesterday and they had a case on display, it's a dual protection case for $35, adds a little thickness to the phone. I did find this one online http:// www.amzer.com/Amzer-Simple-Click-On-Case-Black-P95089.htm
I ordered one from this site...
It has free shipping if you use the code "Election" at checkout. My only concern is it states it's compatible with the international and ATT version which is impossible. I ordered the sprint version which is identical to the international. I think after looking at the picture that it's for the international version. I'll report back when I get it in.
Belkin Dual Material Bumper Case
got it from att, and it compliments the phone perfectly. an added benefit of this case is it creates a lip on the back of the device that is great for gripping, two thumbs up for this case...

Belkin Black/Gray Surround
Body Glove Icon Hybrid 2 gel/shell pack
I got the body glove. Doesn't add much size, looks good & feels more secure. The stock case fells a little slick to me so I was nervous about dropping it.

I got the bumper today and I really like it. One con tho is if you use a charger where the end is any thicker then the one that comes with the phone it will not fit into the slot provided in the case.

Any news on one for art unfortunately this ones for sprint
I'm waiting for the dual screen dual play display. I love the phone so far (picked mine up in store on Nov 2nd). I looked at the belkin bumper while I was in the store. I ended up just going naked. So far I've only gotten a small scratch on the plastic side, the front and back are pristine.

This case if definitely for the Sprint and International as the camera cut-out is for the 13MP camera. I really hope they make accessories for the AT&T version (though I bet it's not so easy as the sides are rounded, which I really hate).
I emailed otterbox about a case for the att version and they told me they have one in the works but no ETA

Does the bumper allow you to see the LED notification light on the power button, or does it cover that up?
I don't have AT&T for service, but noticed they were the only retailer in my area that sells the MotoX Commuter - They also had the Defender but...whatever.
Weird thing is...All the Commuters were in AT&T packaging (not the Otterbox yellow box) and all I looked at were missing the screen protectors that come with the Commuter. Tried explaining to the sales associate but gave up trying to convince him that the Commuter does in fact come with it.
And why the different, AT&T packaging? What's up with this?

AT&T has always done this.
No reason for the different packaging, and no, they don't come with the screen protector from AT&T, ANYWHERE ELSE that you buy the case, you'll get a screen protector.
Not sure why AT&T does this, its really stupid.
