Ok, so I finally got me a device that I intend to stick with as long as I can, that device being a Galaxy Note N7000 (never liked the US versions with all capacitive front buttons, gotta have that physical Home one). Now I'm looking through the case threads and I found one that I absolutely love but of course because I'm like ~2 years late to the party, so to speak, the case isn't made anymore and my chances of actually locating one are somewhere between null and void, perhaps slim to none, zip, zilch, zero, that sort of thing.
But, then again, perhaps someone out there might have one they don't use anymore, or they might just know of a little "hole in the wall" website that has one, who knows, hence me asking. I noticed it in the "Post your Cases Here" thread in a post by another member, dellwole, but he/she apparently hasn't logged in for a very very long time so I doubt reaching out to him/her would prove useful.
This is the case:
It's listed at the original Tridea site as: FLIP Case (Diary style) for GALAXY Note
I know it's a shot in the dark, but it's the best looking case I think I've ever seen (personal opinion there, stand back...) and I really would love to find one if at all possible - I know there are similar ones but I'll put my effort into locating one of these (even used as long as it's in good shape). If anyone has any info that could potentially prove helpful, a finger in the right direction, even a "I know this guy who used to work with a dude that has a cousin who knows Ferris Bueller..." type thing, I'd appreciate hearing about it.
Have fun, always...

easy... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRIDEA-Ga...t=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&hash=item1e6e8d9078 but no brown sadly
Close but no cigar, and yes I'd found that one in my searching.
It's very close but not the same case (different materials, and the enclosure) - I suppose I could get one and then just use a razor to slice off the enclosure piece, it might end up being my only choice unfortunately. And yes, that brown one is precisely what I'll keep looking for, thanks.
The hunt continues...
I've the Elago G4 Handmade Genuine Leather for International Galaxy Note - Folder type.
I suggest you to see..!
thanks

Below is the link where you can submit a request for this specific phone.
http://www.otterbox.com/contact-us/
If more people will request it, they may actually make one.
Here are some of their cases for HTC phones.
http://www.otterbox.com/htc-cases/
I'm in. They make a great product. Already submited.
request sent
I sent in my request I like there cases but it takes so long for them to make a case that by the time the make one I don't have the phone anymore
I sent a request for ya. I was looking at their cases for some of the other phones, and I think I could see myself picking one up if they did make one for the Slide
Sweet, let's keep em coming pls....
put my request in for one, hopefully sometime soon they'll produce and deliver!
They will, just like the HD2 for T-mo version. Initially they only had the Otter Box for the Euro version. Just takes a lot of request for them to realize that there is a market for it.
I sent them a message too. Generally I refuse to pay more than $10 USD for a cheapo case, but this one looks pretty good. They'll get my money, we'll see how it goes
guess what? just got a reply from them:
Update for Case #134861 - "MyTouch 3g Slide"
Dear Drew,
We do not have any information if a case will be made at this time for that device, but it is something that has been requested. I have put in a product suggestion on your behalf, and recommend keeping an eye on our website, as it will have the most up to date information on any new releases that we may have.
Thank you,
Katy
i sent a request
Also requested, keep your fingers crossed

Ha ha, I just wrote them like two minutes ago, hope they come out with one. Otterbox has some quality cases!
[ADMIN]
Can any ADMIN please move this post back to the accessories area?
Thanks in advance.
Requested also =D
Requested, and I received the same reply as others.
Just sent this to them.
I found a link to your website via the XDA-developers forum and had a look at what you've done for other devices. I've previously had the Body Glove products for previous devices I've had but always found that they didn't have a very good fit over time. Since I found the link over at XDA-developer, I've had a chance to see the products you make for the iPhone as well as the regular myTouch. I would love to see a product of yours that would work for the myTouch 3G Slide. If you were to make a product for this phone, I'd be more than thrilled to purchase it as it seems that there's a lot of care taken when your company designs product.
Thanks in advance for considering this request.
Yeah it does take a while for them to decide. People just has to keep requesting for it and hopefully they get enough requests for them to realize that there is a market for it.
Also requested and got the standard return e-mail of not right now but maybe.
Got the standard form letter a couple days ago as well. Hopefully we can get enough cases in there to make them get off their duff before T-mo retires the Slide.
So, you may know what gelaskins are, the best adhesive skins you can desire. And there are Gelaskins cut exactly for our phone, but, there's always a but, they're just for US One X, so no tegra 3 ones, and you know the US version is very different from ours.
They told me they would release a version for our phone if only we're able to show them we want it.
Now if you want them just take 3 secs of your time click here
http://www.gelaskins.com/contact?i=newdevice
choose HTC as manufacturer and write the model. Just specify the "tegra 3", "not AT&T", "not XL", "international" version.
It's better if everyone uses a different model name so that it doesn't seem it's always the same person writing.
Pleas write in this thread that you've signed if it's not a problem for the mods, so that I can ask them how many requests they need and keep track of how many requests have been done.
If you don't want/need a Gelaskin, please do it anyway, it's really a matter of seconds and you just have to write the model name, it would be very helpful for us and you don't know, maybe one day you will want one and I think it's always better to have more choice and have our phone considered as a phone for which is worth developing accessories.
Thank you so much
there are websites outside the US that sell skins too, customized ones too ....i'm getting one for mine tomorrow from the UK. but fair point if you want it in the US, hopefully you get it.

May you link me some? I knew just gelaskins, so I asked them. But I live in Italy, so any other option would be very appreciated if it had the resistance and the quality of those.

ask the guy for a template and u can make your own skin. I'll post pictures of mine in the next few days
requested, ive actually got a gelaskin on my one x atm which was made for the us/at&t one x/l. it fits ok apart from covering the pogo pins (which I have no use for anyway)
They actually refunded my money and let me keep the skins because when they released the one x skins they didn't specify that it wasn't made for the international variant.

Keep it up!! They told me they've put the HTC in the requested devices list and it may take up to two months. I think it would be quicker if they had more requests, but that's just a thought
Thank you to everyone who requested it!

Do NOT buy a skin from skinit.com. They won't fit our OneX's unless you cut out the pogo pins. Apparently its just for the NA OneX.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I have already bought one from them , its on the way.
What do you mean cut out the pogo pins ? do you mean it just covers the pogo pins as well ? I dont use the pins so if it covers them it doesnt matter.
thanks

Requested an International One X. I'd be very interested in one of these skins if they decide to add it, they look really nice.
I think we all need to start blasting Ballistic with requests to make one of these for the One...

What do you guys think?
Bulky??
Let's do it. I know many of us would absolutely love a waterproof case, especially one made by Ballistic.

Edit : Just got a reply from them. They said currently they aren't working on a case, but they will forward my e-mail to their Engineering team, so I guess it's a possibility. Has anyone else e-mailed them aswell? Maybe if we could get a plentiful amount of people to send them an e-mail, we could possibly get it made.
I won a LinkIt ONE at the last xda:devcon and have been travelling since, so had no time to play around with it. If anyone could make good use of it, let me know in this thread and I'll consider sending it over to you.
Let me know where you live and what you plan to do with it and I'll get in touch.
Interested!
I'm interested! I'm Dutch, so I hope that won't cause too much issues.
I'm 14, and I pretty much like to experiment with things. I have all of the tools at hand, so I would appreciate it if you would send one to me.
I heard it can be programmed with the Arduino toolkit?
Edit: Hrmm... didn't notice the date of upload. Sorry about the bump! (if you are still running this, contact me.)
Edit #2: I like to create a wearable with it. I have been looking for suitable boards, and this seems to look ok.
I would love this! I was planning on buying one to use as my platform for a new type of 3D scanner I've made which I hope to distribute on kickstarter.
At the moment I can't afford it because I've spent my entire budget on other wifi boards.
I'm 26 years old and I've been programming and hacking since primary school. I made a iPhone lockscreen simulator that was posted on here before the 1st iPhone came out (based on the CES keynotes).
I plan to share the schematics and code on here when the kickstarter has been launched.
Sorry, I hadn't looked at the thread in a while.
A good friend of mine asked me if he could have a look at it and play around with it for some time. I'll let you know if the board gets available again and post it to you in that case.
Thanks a lot for your interest!

thnx :good:
If someone has been here since the beginning I'd love to hear it all. xda-developers paint such a beautiful picture of the entire story.
Right now it sounds like I'm in a playground with all of the information I'd ever need. This thing came out in 2013, it's cracked open, exposed, fully handled. and it's cheap (now) encouraging development to the fullest extent.. I want to try my hand at something, troubleshooting, maybe porting a ROM, just something to get toes wet. I'm a 18 year old certified web developer, But I want to try this, it seems so cooool! lol. and If someone wants be kind enough to push me in the right direction, and maybe be a friend I can reach out to if I need it, that'd make my day! right now i'll be rooting it, I just laid my hands on it.
I like your idea! That's the way it goes. I would love to give you tips but I'm not into programming. But I want you to go on just like this, learn stuff yourself, make stuff yourself! Most people ask others to create them stuff and that sucks soo much.
Only thing I can tell you is that gr8nole is the best dev on this device imo, if he would teach you, you could learn the most.
Best wishes'n'goood luck m8
What tab 3 device do you have?
