Im looking for a wooden casing for HTC one. I've seen dozens on iphone and sammy, Its been awhile singe htc released so there must at least be one manufacturer making a wooden case for the HTC one right?????
As far as a case goes idk, but there are wooden skins that supposedly feel like actual wood
There can only be one, the chosen ONE.
I have not seen one. Wooden cases are pretty labor-intensive, so the manufacturers tend to stick to the most popular models. You might be able to talk them into a custom one depending on how badly you want it and the size of your wallet.
Edit: You know, there is this thing called Google--you might try it. Found this one in about a minute:

Okay, for being a douche, I tracked down a real option.
Edit: nope, that's a plastic wood grain case.
This guy might be talked into making one, though it's more of a box than a case:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/1198975...essories_mid&gclid=CNfr-ef_grkCFSU6QgodQ0UAJQ
Might contact these people and see if they have sold any. They've got some nice options:
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/1196374249/2013_hot_new_products_wooden_case.html
I've been looking around for a wooden one as well, but nothing has really come up for me. I think the most ideal one for me would be a case that is plastic except for a thin wooden back (or wooden-looking back). I would love it if Carved made a case for the One. Their cases for the iPhone 5 and the S4 look great:
An alternate idea I want to try is to pair an aluminum bumper... with one of the wood-look wraps from Slickwraps. A silver aluminum bumper with Carved's Maple Wood skin woud look very nice in my opinion.
Depending on the size of your wallet this guy could do you a bespoke one he could even put some nice inlays on it such as your initials. Quality work and he has a very nice selection of woods I personally love American walnut. Like I said it won't be cheap though.

Hey guys,
I know a lot of you are looking for this.
I have found a site which has these in stock and is selling. I bought two.
http://www.mrcellphoneunlocker.com/V2/products.php?product=TB_EX
Pretty cheap if you ask me.
They all look pretty poorly cut... maybe if they done better it would be worth it, but looking at all the jagged cuts on those skins... it would be cheaper to just buy one of ebay for less and poorly cut the thing myself.

I had done my own cut back 15 days ago, photos are outdated but you get the idea. In addition, I had ran a lighter around the freshly cut edges to smooth out the lines. It's better looking in person, that's for sure.

Shrug. I just buy from by buddy. I have 2. He only sells black though.
So far, Ive had mine from his pre-release ones. and its holding up quite well.
They can be seen on: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320689127257&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT
Those are the ruff cut pics. I dont think hes had time to update pics because hes had some family and whatnot. But, for the price. $13 vs 25.
I'm also selling them for $10 shipped.
-Mobile on my Bolt sportin' some goodies-
I'm actually waiting for this:
http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/5448.htm
Seidio is going to have their active case for the ThunderBolt which will cover the battery more than likely because they just released pictures of their SURFACE case and it covers the battery. Check it out and let me know what you think.
What do you guys think?
Here's a link to the shop on ebay: Link.
I'm looking for something a little stylish in design and came across this.
I'm trying to favor Form over the actual function of a case. I'm almost tempted to get this one, but I wanted to see what others had as an opinion on it.
This case looks very similar to the iOttie Macaron case (see here)
If it is similar to that case as in feel and fit for the phone then I will buy this case immediately. I loved my iOttie for my iPhone 5 when I had it.
im really digging this case. might get it when funds arrive lol. anyone wanna buy a cruzer lite case? lol

I got my case in the mail over the weekend. I'll post pictures later.
Overall, it's very nice. The grip feels very good in the hand, and the case itself makes a perfect fit around the phone. The buttons aren't too tight like I've seen on other cases, but they make good enough contact that they work with every press. I'd even go as far as saying that pressing the buttons in the case feel more tactile than pressing the buttons on the phone itself.
My one complaint has to do with the rounded back. Oftentimes when I'm at restaurants or sitting at my desk, I'll set my phone on the table to use it. The rounded back makes the touch screen awkward to use as the case tends to slide the phone around a bit, or spin in place. I'd also gripe that the "iFace" logo is upside down when the phone is in proper landscape mode for camera use. No big deal though.
I got my case in the Android shade Lime-green color, but it comes in many different colors.
Also, Shipping took exactly two weeks for me, but YMMV.

It's not a whole lot to look at, but hopefully it helps. Excuse the orange paint stains on my kitchen counter. It's really bothering me in these pictures.
The back. Ample enough protection for the camera lens.
Spoiler
I really like the rounded contours along the perimeter of the phone. it feels good in the hand. It's got a soft rubbery grip. I actually nearly dropped my phone while taking one of these pictures, luckily for the grip...I managed to catch it in time.
Spoiler
The space for the MicroUSB and 3.5mm jack: Could be a bit tight for some, but works for all of my cords. My largest USB has quite a snug fit.
Spoiler
EDIT:WHELP, spoiler tags don't work like I assumed. Also, If you notice the ruler in the background, I was going to try and get some measurements, but a paper ruler doesnt do me very good when trying to figure out a difference between a couple milimeters. As far as thickness goes, the case doesn't even add a full milimeter. The sides are a bit of a different story, due to the rounded edges.
iFace case is strongly recommended for the Optimus G. It is very good quality with excellent grip.
Here is a link;
iFace first class Optimus G case
I've had a number of....accidental drop tests. This is truly a great case. The rubber bump-edge really does an excellent job protecting from falls. These aren't just little baby falls either, for instance, last night, my poor little phone fell from my hand, about 5 feet onto hard brick flooring. I've yet to acquire a single scratch anywhere on my phone!

maybe im wrong, but i would guess that it's unlikely there will be any bumpers from main manufacturers considering the phone is very thin at the edges and also the fact that it gets narrower at the edges (ie. not constant thickness)

Bro, check on http://www.pdair.com they sell high quality leather pouches. I'm like you and I like my phone to be naked and only be covered by a pouch so that people can see the device I have (I know, it sounds kind of egocentric) but also, I like to see my phone as it is, without anything covering it except the screen protector
The products are in production and expected to be released soon, I will definetly get one from them
I'm really loving that HTC is putting out their own accessories as well, I'm personally getting the flip case.
I never use cases for usual usage, but I'd like to have a kickstand since I plan on also using this for a very tiny but very portable working/entertaining interface. Like I usually jot down a few notes about appointments and lectures, as well as I like watching stuff on my phone

FYI if anyone wants to get one of these skins ask them what the dimensions are for them and compare to your phones.
dbrand had problems with the build qualities of the One and the difference between the different variants.
Here's what they said when I asked about them making a custom for my One. And these guys are meticulous about their quality/fit.
PS I bought a Nexus 4 custom skin from them, it fits perfectly, as if it was a part of the phone.
I'm waiting for dbrand to finish perfecting them. 3M gave them a leftover roll for the red carbon fiber used on the new ferrari.
It's rough man... HTC won't give us any of the CAD files due to some bs about not being a part of their "licensed accessory partner program". We can confirm that some devices are slightly different than others. The tolerance is about 0.2mm, which doesn't sound like a lot, but it really is.
Disclaimer: stop reading now if you don't want excessive details.
With the HTC One, because the device has a slight curvature on the back and rounded edges, users can't properly align it using a corner. It must be aligned using either the HTC logo or the camera/flash cutout. The tolerance lies between those two areas (the HTC logo and the camera/flash). So, for example, say on device X the HTC logo was 0.2mm lower than on device Y. Not only would the camera/flash cutouts be off by 0.2mm, but the skin would be hanging off the bottom edge by 0.2mm. The solution here is to create cutouts which are ~0.45mm larger than they need to be, and an outer limit which is ~0.225mm shorter from each side. The result is a skin that looks like it was half-assed, when the reality of the situation is that HTC's manufacturing process is just not stringent enough. The alternative is to go out and buy 3 sample phones from each carrier (9 in total in North America, totaling 27 phones), and test to see which carriers have which versions of each device. We would then have a selection page during checkout for each carrier and supply skins separately for each. While is is the route our CEO wants to take, the design team feels that the sample size is not great enough to accurately gauge what is what. It'll just end up being a cluster**** of skins that are slightly off.

Man been following this thread , really hope they can get accurate cad measurements for the us version , really want to buy this but considering the reply from icarbons , i guess i'll just waitit out, I'll keep following this thread for any furhter developement..........
im sort of annoyed how i browsed and browsed the cases suggested on this site, and read a LOT of the threads/pages...and people who got white cases, or had experience with them, never mentioned how the white will diminish and dis-color.
i have a nilkin case that was highly suggested here, so i got one from ebay for 10. case is exactly what i wanted, but after a few weeks i started to notice my white case turn a bit rusty-browny/ish. my otterbox iphone 4s case was white, and also picked up ink from jeans or something after so long. if i knew all of this i would have never gotten another white case... i figured the otterbox just picked up crap, and was willing to try somethin else light.

I reckon if you spend the money on a better white case like the UAG it wouldn't discolor.

Whats wrong if he shared his experience. Isn't it one of the reasons to converge on the forums. His purchase was based at-least partly on research and recommendations here. It didn't pan out for him and he posted. You need to loosen up a bit
Yep.. white discolors, lesson of life lol.
the UAG might not discolor cause it has clearcoat on it (I think, right?)
As for rubber/silicone/TPU white cases, try a magic eraser.

Ok so I read on JD power the 2013 Honda civic was best car for 2013 in it's class. I bought it. Now I hate this pos! Did I go to Honda forum and cry about it? Nope I mand up! Everyone knows white discolors/gets dirty fast. Maybe I was outta line but that's how I felt
P.S it's like he is mad at everyone because no one told him the white would discolor boooohooo in the words if Justin Timberlake "Cry me a river"

If you don't like his post, dont read it, dont open it, just ignore it.
It doesnt violate any rules as far as I can tell, however your responses to him are borderline harassment
I too find it odd he did not realize white tends to get dirty. But now he knows, and maybe others out there didn't know but will see this thread now.
No big deal.

Its not a question of like/dislike or buyers remorse. If there is an issue with the product and/or its advertized features, then yes, I will gripe, be it a civic or a beemer or the might pencil. Of late , a lot of sellers who stand behind the quality of their products have some sort of active/passive monitoring on social boards (check Amazon/Newegg) for feedback on their products and sometimes that is the quickest way to a resolution.
ok i need to get over my wasted 10 dollars. you need to get over me complaining about it...if i was looking for a new car and read a lot of positive (biased) reviews about that car, i would want someone to share their good [AND] bad experiences of the car..lets say the car has no cup holders, and 99 percent of the posters failed to mention that..what if i drove long distances and needed cup holders? and you were the only one that mentioned it had no cup holders. --NOPE dont do that. you're whining and crying about it. (dumb example i know lol)
its 10 dollars, just like you said. not a huge deal, although a lot of cases are more 20-50 dollars. im not making a huge deal about it. i was just trying to warn other people. what if someone is hung up between two cases, and they cant decide which one. and maybe my thread helped them pick what color they would like a little more easier because they're not reading the same post over and over ("oh this case is good")
Just wanted to let you guys know, the back of your phone will get scratched if you accidentally drop it without a case on it. HTC didn't list this in their product description, So I am letting you know.
I've got an OEM Samsung white case on my Note 2 and it's it's fared very well. I've had it for months and it hasn't discoloured or gotten dirty. It all depends on the material that the case is made out of.
I'm looking for a case for the One that I have now and I've used a Nillkin case before and it was black and it was great.
I guess it also depends on how dirty your hands and pockets are too.
Wow. Y'all need to get your panties out of a wad and get off the OP's back. It was just a post letting ppl know his experience with the case. Go find your next victim. Geez. -_-

Well I have the nillkin white flip case for over a month now and it is fine. Granted it being white it does get dirty real fast so it needs cleaning constantly, I have been doing this and its been fine for me so far.

I'd tend to lean with the "what's the point" crowd on this one-- no offense, OP, but this is kind of par for the course with...well, anything white! Which really does suck, because I know a lot of people prefer that aesthetic-- personally, dark and understated colors have always done me better.
That said, I'd also echo the sentiment that it varies from case to case. $10 cases are just about always going to be a hit-or-miss-- for that kind of cost, it's unlikely that the manufacturer invested in quality materials, especially if plastics are involved. Those will discolor on contact with just about anything "unusual" in the environment. I don't think TPU cases discolor much though, so if you want a cheap white option you could look into one of those.
Of course, the worst case scenario with these is if discoloration happens outside of the return period.
Yeah, I tend to avoid white matte plastic cases. The polished ones don't stain quite as easily, but scuffs are very apparent.

I got a white body glove case and it is still just as white as the day I got it...
sadly, my thread didnt reach the two members on this website that got the nillkin white case, and are now disappointed and wish they got something else, because their case as well yellowed.

Uh, umad bro? If you want to go hang your heads in collective misery, a PM would probably be a lot more efficacious.
Seriously.. how do people not know white gets dirty easily?
Heres a few more tips:
Matte/rough surfaces tend to get dirty easily and stain.
Glossy/smooth surfaces tend to be easy to clean off, the gloss is a clear coat that protects the paint under it. Stains usually just wipe off.
Light colors tend to get stained because they are light, so any dirt/dyes will show up very clearly.
Your jeans were made with a lot of dye, it is highly likely that your case will get stained by that too, especially if your jeans get a bit wet (due to the rain for example).
