I just got this one for my Wildfire: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.40122 and it's great. It looks good and the phone is easy to pick out of the pouch. It could be a bit tighter though, but all things considered it was $3.10 very well spent!

Tried buying the same one as bouvrie & Dvanen as it looked pretty basic and wasn't a case or a leather pouch which I really hate. Fits perfectly but I wish it could go into the case a little deeper as it sticks out a little, and for there to be a little more padding. But otherwise it's fine.

Wildfire waist pouch
Has anybody comes across waist pouch? Don't see much lately but will be good for tight fitting jeans.

Look here http://www.pdair.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000977
Some of the pouches have belt attachment clips.

What do you mean?
I said to tell us if you bought any because some people are interested in hands-on information about the things that PDair sell. I don`t care if you buy form them, or not, but if you do , it`s nice to tell the community about the quality/speed of deliverywhatever.

Win a FREE Laser-Etched XDA Backplate

Just FYI, we're holding a contest that may be relevant to your interests:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/win-a-laser-etched-xda-backplate-for-your-galaxy-nexus
Good luck!

This IS relevant to my interests. Good looking out.

Cool contest. And its good to know that there is a guy that is printing custom ones. I've had some ideas running through my head that I was wondering if they could get done.

Thanks. Entered!

Can it be done with experiences of other devices too?

Can we by any chance buy one ourselves without competing?

Yes. Visit the GRUVER concepts link in the contest. It should be available for purchase there.
Edit: Here's the link: http://www.gruverdesigns.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=20

This contest discriminates against people like me who read instructions properly and therefore have never had a bad flashing experience!

Wouldn't a laser melt the plastic back of the GNEX? Serious question.

It can if too much power is applied. In this case no. It just etches the surface.

The most important part is not the amount of power (or pulse energy) but the pulse duration (you use pulsed lasers for this kind of stuff). If the pulse duration is shorter or almost as short as the heat transfer duration between the atoms/molecules, melting is not a problem any more.
The pulse is "gone" before the heat can effect the nearby matter. You will get really sharp edges.

To win this would be awesome but I've never had any problems flashing anything so "unfortunately" I can't enter the competition, on the other hand I'm fortunate to never had any devices bricked!

great
Thanks for sharing, just bad when i read the others and see i was the daftest lol.
i know it shuts on the 23rd (i think) but when will the winner be announced? i can imagine it may take a while to read all the entrys lol,

Do you know if the cdma version will work on sprints version of the phone? Planning on getting mine sunday. Unfortunetly I can't think of any good stories that surpass those. But I do have my fair share since the days of winmo.

nice. thanks for posting.

Thanks for posting! I"ll have to think of my scariest moment for a bit.

Thanks! I posted my own scary incident back when I had my AT&T Tilt (Kaiser).

Just to give an example of the quality of the back cover, here's the one I had designed. Courtesy of Gruver Concepts (the company holding the contest with XDA)

This is such a cool contest! I just submitted my story. Would be awesome to combine my just ordered GSM Galaxy Nexus with an XDA branded back cover!
Think you'll enjoy my short story about attempting to update my brand new Nexus One while hiding in the work bathroom and thinking I ruined the phone

Quick update for all who entered...
Just a quick update for all those who entered:
We received over a hundred contest entries, most of which were quite epic (perhaps even of the 4g variety)! Picking just 20 winners (10 GSM, 10 CDMA/LTE) was tough, so I added in 3 bonus winners who forgot to write in what type of Nexus they own, but still provided excellent stories. I will send those three an XDA-Developers T-Shirt instead.
Winners will be announced in an hour, at 11:30a Eastern time. At that point, I will shoot off PMs to the lucky few who had the most entertaining and spine-tingling stories asking for their mailing address.
Thank you to all those who participated in the contest. It's amazing how many crazy tales our mobile devices bring us!

Haha, I can't unsee that. I might be inclined to get one for this very reason, but I like having the cable closer to my ear, and the phone move less, especially when running. My forearms move much more than my upper arm, and I usually listen to mixes/playlists and rarely have to toggle things on the phone.

It's been a couple of weeks, any new word on armbands? The initially promoted Belkin still isn't released ( and the colors are kind of hideous).

LOL at that wristband. It looks like your arm is broken or something.

Element Case for Nexus 5

Element Case has some very sexy (and pricey) cases for iPhone and I'm hoping they decide to make one of their higher-end cases for our phones. Would you buy an equivalent style case (presuming similar cost) if one were available for your N5? I'd like to put together a friendly petition of sorts to encourage them to consider it--if we have some interest. I know these cases are pretty costly but they are very pretty.

I love the case. I would never buy one but I'd be happy to sign a petition.

I'd buy one in a heart beat!
I love my Android phones but have wanted a seriously nice phone/case for many years and NOBODY delivers that for android. There are so many super cool high end cases for iPhones and nothing for android. Even the makers of the cool high end iPhone cases seem to cheap out when they make a version for an Android phone!
In all honestly an iPhone will do what in *need* even without some of the blingy Android toys. I've considered switching just to an iPhone just to have some of the cooler accessories!

I would buy one for sure. Seeing how I already dropped and cracked one n5 screen from a very small drop( luckily I am a Sprint cellphone repair technician). I don't usually use a case because it takes away from the beauty of the phone. But a case like one of those above would indeed enhance the sleek style of the n5. !!--3 thumbs up--!!

mah. id like one but 200 for a case. thats a little steep. carbon fiber might make me change my mind

Well, this way the total price would be equivalent to a regular flagship.

Guys... The price would hardly be $200. They only charge that much for iGeeks. Look at the prices for the S3 and S4.

[GIVEAWAY-Closed] Nexus 5 Nillkin Leather Flip Case (International)

This giveaway is now closed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56116723&postcount=23
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56208179&postcount=37
Hello everyone and welcome to my International Giveaway for one brand new Nexus 5 Nillkin Leather Flip Case, Yellow Colour, the only thing you would have to pay for is postage.
Right now you probably have two questions:
1) Why are you doing this?
2) Who is this fool? I've never seen him around here before
1) I am doing this because I ordered the case for a friend who gave me the money to buy it but after receiving it, they didn't like it and it was too late to return it and they didn't mind. And I can't be bothered to go through the sh*tstorm that is known as Ebay just to sell a case.
2) Yes you are right. I don't have a nexus 5, I have a nexus 4 which is why you probably haven't seen me around these parts.
Case Info
Like I said before, this is a brand new case, unopened. It is an official Nillkin product and has all the official stickers and things on the back.
It's a Yellow case, Fresh series by Nillkin, here's a link:
http://www.nillkin.com/english/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=0&tid=0&cid=1&scid=13&id=3710&page=1

Postage Info
This is an international giveway and the only thing you have to pay for is postage. That means I will post to wherever the courier/delivery company posts to. So I'm sorry to disappoint those living in the middle of Timbuktu or in the Arctic but you won't be able to enter (I was gonna write North Korea but surprisingly, they do post there, who knew? )
The courier I will probably use is Royal Mail which is the standard mail provider in the UK but if you want to use another, that's fine.
To find out how much it would cost, see:
http://www.royalmail.com/price-finder
Also, for reference purposes, the case including packaging/envelope weighs around 92g
Entry Information
To enter the giveaway, just post below saying your in, it's that simple :good:
To make things fair I will select a winner at random, if there's a double post or something like that i'll just ignore it.
I will select a winner after say 3/4 days although i'll just see depending on how many entrants there are
Good luck everyone :good:
