yes it can, I got it for $10 on kickstarter...but I think it's ~$25ish now, pricey but works pretty well.
Cool
These things are pretty dang cool. However $25 seems like a bit much for this. You got a good deal by backing it!
Meh
I dunno. Yeah it looks cool. But I use my headphone jack alot for, you know, headphones. So half the time I'd have this tiny little thing that I'd have to put in my pocket or my sock or something and try real hard not to loose it, but I'd eventually loose it anyway, because it's so small. And it's $25.

It has a little headphone holder, holds the Pressy and your headphones! It's a neat little gadget, I use my Studio Wireless headphones though. So that's a non-issue for me.

It looks like it runs off a separate battery. Maybe if I took night pictures a whole lot $50 would make sense.
So it also charges your phone or just gives you a flash

Just the flash. If you don't use the light much, it's a great way to carry an extra battery.
Doesn't look like it charges the phone. It looks like it gives you flash and can charge the battery in it.
So a flash is like the major thing that was missing but its kinda pricey
Sent from my Vibrant using XDA App
That's probally why only 1 sold.
not to mention it almost doubles the thickness of your phone
If it charged your phone too I would've bought it but 50 for an led is bad

i agree $50 seems a little pricey. GREAT IDEA though
sorry but thats horrible.
i know theyre trying but damn
I love how a couple moths ago, this is all anyone wanted. Now that a solution is here, the general consensus is....
Meh.
It's cool but 20 bucks would've been a lot cooler

DO IT!!!!!!!
So... it uses a full sized battery but does not connect to the phone's battery. It is not an actual flash and instead is just a spot light.
Also the ebay ad says that there is a LED for the charging status but they didn't seem to show that, but again that is only the spare battery.
I would rather just carry a keychain led flash light for 6 dollars. I suppose the spare battery holder makes some sense, but I have a lot of electrical tape if I need to make sure there is a spare battery attached to my phone.
Lol. That thing is HUGE Tiny Elvis
If someone could come up with one that's 1/5 that thickness it might be worthwhile.
I brick my phone enough without literally turning it into one.

This is a GREAT idea.
No much going on in these forums so I decided to share this with you guys for fun.
I never had good luck with car mounts in the past especially with my Vibrant. The two ones I did purchased were flawed, one fit the phone so tight that I thought it was going to damage it and the other one hung from the window with suction cups and was always falling off. Needless to say they were both a pain in the ass!
On my commute home I like to listen to the TNT podcast or watch if possible, so I found and inexpensive solution that is ghetto but effective. I used some 3m frame hangers found at any walmart. It fits perfectly snug with my seidio active case. Here are some pics.
speedometers are overrated anyhow. .
isn't $3 kinda expensive for 2 hooks?

not really, they are 3m "top of the line". No seriously, it works great.
when you mount the phone on, they kinda look like two little hands with their thumbs sticking out.

I know this has been mentioned many times and we all know how low quality the mic on the a100 is, but has anybody came to a final fix ASIDE from using a headset, through some of my playing around I noticed that the mic hole is actually lined up wrong, the plastic sides of the a100 can be removed, and when I saw where the hole is, it was positioned over a piece of plastic right beside the mic, and the mic itself is blocked.
So out of desperation a drilled a small hole right over the mic, that did seem to make the volume higher, but the quality...oh so worse (I had to fill that hole again with superglue, and it looks horrible), if anybody would like to see, just take the small piece of plastic off the side (it snaps in/out) and see for yourself how the mic hole doesn't even line up.
Now the second interesting thing is that I saw a chat session with a technical support guy at Acer about the mic on this tab, and he actually confirmed that the mic shipped with it is in fact a cheap low quality mic, so I was thinking, would anybody be able to somehow solder it out and swap it with a much higher quality one? Say from a headset or something, I don't have any mics of the same size as the a100 but if anybody has one can you maybe try and look into it, I sure will try as soon as I get good enough with soldering and find a headset, I mean we really don't have anything to lose other than a cheap mic that doesn't really work .
Much appreciated, thanks

for those of you who lovr bigger phones or tablets/e readers...then the FlyGrip is the accessory for you. the FlyGrip goes on the back of your device and allows you to have a firm grip of your device and doubles as a kickstand. check out the site
http://flygrip.com
this is not my company, they have partnered with Me and i am just promoting their product
They are $30 online with free shipping. they come in black, white, green, red, yellow, and much more!
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
I've seen this and reviews a while back but it's not my cup of tea... Though I can say that for anyone other than past loyal customers $30 is probably too high a price. Cost of materials can't be more than $5-$10. I'm really not trying to be **** either just stating my 2¢

yeah exactly. i couldn't agree more @
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
The product isn't worth $30 but they have a patent pending on it. I own one and i have to say, i love using it. I swapped back to my old Incipio Sillicrylic because I was in an environment that need the extra cover. After I got home, i swapped back to the Flygrip right away. I like that it doesn't bulge my phone up all around and i can touch every part of the screen without feeling that i'll slip the phone through my hands and end up in mud/water/concrete. It took me a while to get used to putting my fingers through it. in the end, i'm satisfied.
It's a little steep in price, but I was more than willing to pay for it and might buy another since mine is just slightly large. It is really useful and I get so many comments on it. Plus it's really cool that it doubles as a stand in both landcape and portrait modes. My only regret is that it definitely means it will be inconvenient to do the wireless charging hack and I think it might interfere with Google wallet. In the wireless charging hack the phone must sit flush with the charging pad and it may be the same with using Google wallet to pay via PayPass. I'm still looking into that last one.
yeah that's my only complaint as well and if it interferes with S Beam, etc

I've just tested last night with my girlfriend's S3 and it works perfectly fine. She has the Incipio Sillicrilic case and I had my Flygrip. even though that 1+ cm distance from both phones, i've sent a song and a few pictures successfully.
$29.95.
WOW....... Price is ridiculous. I usually pay for an over priced item now and then for something I am interested in but the price on the FlyGrip is really pushing it. Most defiantly passing on this product!
That was my issue I wasnt sure if NFC still would work. And I dont know if it will stick to my Otter box

the double sided tape is from 3M so it should stick no problem unless the outer shell is soft. but that's going to be pretty thick attaching the flygrip to it. i'm using the flygrip solo and it feels very secure. i haven't dropped my phone(knock on wood).
No offense, but I lol'd when I saw it. I lol'd again when I saw the price.
Hahaha yeah its pretty expensive for an accessory'

I have one in red! It looks really nice and I love the look of the metal. The only issue I have is the silicone part isn't the most snug fit and sometimes an edge of the phone might come out of the case when I took it out of my pocket. I don't think the whole phone would come out or anything..I'm just picky.

Sent from my One using xda app-developers app
If you're looking for protection, I probably wouldn't recommend it. There really isn't much of a lip over the screen and the top corners seem to slip off a little too easily. It's not like the whole case would accidentally fall off though since the metal part helps to keep it somewhat rigid.
If you're looking for style, then go for it. It's definitely a unique case.
Heads up, if you actually buy it from Mindplar.com it's $45 with shipping and comes with an assumingly cheap battery bank. A little bit cheaper.

This case does indeed look night, I never spend this much on a case but I might have to, maybe I will wait for a few other reviews.
These are pretty sharp looking. I have only been using a sleeve, but might have to consider this. I think Eddie Van Halen would approve of the red one.

I seen 1 million cover for htc one but i never seen this one before ! thanks , probably i'll purchase this , seems really good
Just got mine in the mail. Came with a free 1000 mAh power bank.
Didn't realize that the IR port was covered, no big deal though. I can use a nail to put a hole in there.
Kind of disappointed that the "metal" part is glued on, and it doesn't wrap around the lip like other hybrid cases.
The case itself is very slim. If you have a glass screen protector it wouldn't wrap around it. Looks really great in hand though.

So looking at the pictures previously posted, is the rubber very...rubbery? lol like the ports seem very loosely cut (charging port) and the edges seem like very rounded. I am used to the UAG case and think the cuts and lines are so sharp that this case (while looking pretty rad) has some variances in quality
am i right?
