Just curious if our T-Mobile S4 has a different battery cover?
It seems more silver/light blue to me compared to photos, similar to the Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant. Thanks!
I don't have this answer, but was asking myself this when I got mine. It doesn't seem as "black" as the one I thought I saw. Best way to find out is to go to AT&T or Best Buy and compare. Which, I might do.
At first I didn't like it because it showed the pattern too much, but now I'm kind of used to it. Plus, when my Spigen case comes, it won't matter.

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:

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/
Anybody seen something like this for the Vibrant?
Like this:
http://www.case-mate.com/Google-Nexus-One-Cases/Case-Mate-Google-Nexus-One-ID-Credit-Card-Cases.asp
i havent seen one
i saw one for the iphone in a rolling stone magazine and ive been looking ever since
No. That is sweet though. I want one!
Yeah. The SGS variants all sold a bunch, you'd think they'd have made this case for such a popular phone. It's the only kind of case I'd put on my phone.
I couldn't find any, anyone else have better luck?
Its not the same, but I have the black case that was sold on launch, pretty sure they still sell them at T-Mo... I just put my debit card inside it and it works pretty solid. Not ideal, but it works.
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.
Sent from my SGH-T989
eeeewwwwww.......
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?
bump for great justice. i really like the twelve south case
I've been looking at this
http://www.pdair.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=34089
just ordered it few days ago waiting for it to show up
---------- Post added at 10:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ----------
dont buy for talkietech or wirless age or something like that, they both dicked me around for two weeks and told me not in stock, there is a guy on ebay from hong kong that has stich color options for pd case, but i got the original from the website above
I ordered a "black Napa leather case" off Amazon. Nice quality but so thick it could hold 2 sgs2's and way too wide. Clearly not made for our phone.
http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0075/8682/t/1/assets/phonefoldgrey-full07.jpg?111878
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 actually might have found it on ebay.

The picture shows an iPhone but the description says it's for a galaxy s2. It's a bit on the pricey end and I'm not sure about the quality since it's not a genuine Twelve South. But they sold 12 of these so far without negative feedback.
EDIT: New link since the other one ended: ebay.com/itm/Twelve-South-BookBook-Style-Leather-Case-Wallet-Samsung-Galaxy-S2-/200706984428?_trksid=p4340.m444&_trkparms=algo%3DCRX%26its%3DC%252BS%26itu%3DSI%252BUA%252BLM%252BLA%26otn%3D5%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D5992036502526272942#ht_571wt_1348

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.
Does anyone know if there is any way to get a replacement battery door for our GS3? Has Samsung sold these for the GS2 in the past?
I'd really like to get one, but so far I've only seen aftermarket replacements..
Seem um on sale in CPWH stores already.

Is there any way for me to purchase it from them overseas to the US? From their website it seems like they only deliver to the EU..

Here is one I came across whilst looking for cheap fake ones. I want some so that I can paint them
Here is the link(split because I am a noob poster )

Stu.
I wonder if there are any that have the same texture as the SGS2? Because I really loved the ribbed non glossy texture of the SGS2 and the SGS3's texture is a little too much of a oil magnet for me.
The full back replacement seems like an ideal customisation opportunity - any custom screen printed backs available?
Are you sure they have them in stores? Where? Do they have them online as well?
I've had no luck in finding one also, I would like to get the SKinobi's Silver Carbon kit & put one on it.
Any one knows where I can find a cover like this:
http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-flip-covers-come-bundled-time-holiday-season
Most of what I have seen for Galaxy Nexus look like wallets with a magnet/button to hold the cover giving it too much of a wallet look which I hate, personally.
So I'm wondering if is there anything like this for Galaxy Nexus. (black, would be great).
What about this one?

Hey, dbolot1 Thanks for the suggestion.
The thing is it's a vertical flip (for lack of a better term). What I am really looking for is a clone of the GSIII cover on the original post.
the best match i've found was this, sadly there's no black version of it: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Roc...322099?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27c99e57b3
It has already been discussed here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863118
