[Q] Battery Cover - UPDATE - Droid Incredible Accessories

http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-HTC-INCREDI...402698?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item51956e92ca
I'm not sure if i would be happy with this, but in my head it seems cool
Has anyone ordered any of these or know if they are quality products?

Well, curiosity got the best of me and I went ahead and ordered one.

Don't know by first hand but it looks pretty good, seems like a recolor of the stock door so it should probably fit the same without issue.

FINALLYYY came in the mail today....I am shocked at the quality, it's not quite as nice as the stock cover, but for a knockoff I was impressed with the fit and quality. SOrry for the bad pictures, that's the best I can do at work.

At only around $10, I was thinking about getting one. Does it fit okay and how long did it take to get to you from out of the country?

The fit is perfect, just like stock. I think it took around 8 weeks because the first one never got to me, but after they re-shipped It got here in less than 2 weeks. I like it more and more each day actually. It looks really nice.

I ordered the white one from them and I can complain Looks perfect and costs less then the one from HTC

i have a white one also. although the plastic isnt quite as thick as the original, everything fits nicely. for $10 .... no complaints.

Ordered the red one from eBay. Good initial quality. Silver HTC letters and good fit but no silver ring around the headphone plug. I've had it for about three months and its cracking throughout the case for no reason other than taking off my gelcase (which looks amazing over the red back. Its a see through black case that makes the red back look awesome). I wouldn't buy another one from them. I got a refund right after I ordered it anyway because the paint had a drip between the led lights for the camera. So for free its not bad at all but I just ordered the OEM white and also the red back for 12 each.

myTouch Skin It Offer

Has anyone here ordered or used they're skin it offer when you guys received your myTouch?
or has anyone used skin it before and what did you guys think of it?
i have one on my g1, and just ordered a custom one for my MyTouch 3G.... I like them. they are very durable, easy to put on, and fit under the snap on clear cases i use. the stretch to go around bent corners and such, to stay smooth with no bubbles or wrinkles.

Personally, I wouldn't order a skin (hate the way the peel up), but I would order one of the custom shells. Know a girl that just got one a couple days ago and it's damn near melted on. . . it's not going anywhere. lol
I have a gel skin (case) from T-Mobile on my HTC Magic and it's alright. It doesn't fit as snug as I would like and it's a dust/lint magnet. Perhaps, that is the case with all gel skins though. Finally, the hole at the bottom covers up the microphone hole on the phone but ppl still hear me ok, so it doesn't seem to be a problem.
Overall, it does the job of protecting the phone.
It's not realy a skin. they actually print the image on a battery cover. Overall it's not bad. The image you use will have a lot to do with the quality of the printing. If you use the 25% off code it comes to about 17 bucks and change with shiping. For the price I am happy with mine. I am going to order another as soon as payday rolls around.
I ordered one but it was a custom image. It looked great online but terrible when I got it. They were extremely fast in replacing it but the second one looked really bad as well. The image quality was good but it doesn't really cover most of the phone so you have all these white spots where there is no coverage.
So they gave me a shell. This was much better but the image quality isn't that good.
All and all they were extremely nice and fast.
So the shell is actually another back plate printed with your design? I hope I read that right, because I have a crack in my back plate near where the camera is and it makes me nuts, I ordered my shell last week, now im just waiting....

HTCPedia Extended Battery Case

Just giving a heads up in case anybody has seen these and thought about buying one.
HTCPedia.com is selling an "Extended Battery Fit Hard Rubber Case for HTC Droid Incredible." I'm new, so I can't post the link.
I purchased one of these since I currently have one of the extended batteries in my Dinc and haven't seen another case that works with it. I received it on Friday and was a little shocked. This is NOT a case designed to fit the Incredible with an Extended battery. It is a standard case manually cut to open the back up so the extended battery can fit through it. As if that wasn't bad enough, not only did it not fit...but the cut job was really crappy. Squared off corners instead of rounded, double cuts in some places that left slivers of the material sticking out, etc. If you are planning on getting one of these you are better off just buying the standard case and cutting it yourself. You'll save money and likely do a better job.
HTCPedia has not responded back to my emails yet either as to if this was a mistake or honestly what they are trying to sell. I'll let you know if they respond with anything.
Here's the link for the case.
The quality in the pictures looks pretty bad to me, would have been a pretty good indication of the quality you'd receive. It's also only made for the 2150 extended battery/back.
That case is the one verizon sells look at the red one it has the same design inside as the one from verizon!!!! Haha so they just cut out the back piece!!!

Yup, just cut it out. I did get a call back from HTCPedia just a few minutes ago and they are giving me a full refund. So that at least makes me feel a little better about the whole deal.

Great case!

Just bought this. Came in the mail (pretty quick shipping to Ontario), and I'm really impressed with it:
http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00GW3FMPW/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Very slim, the cover wakes and sleeps properly when it's opened and closed, stitching is flawless... all in all, a really high quality case. Very happy with it, even after owning for a week or so.
Only one complaint: the case is missing a couple of features compared to the one pictured in the ad. There is no cutout for the charging port (I plan to add this myself -- easy fix), and there is also no hand strap. Not huge losses in my opinion.
Deal breaker....

I think that the missing charging hole would be a deal breaker for me. Especially since they advertised it as a feature. I hate companies that basically lie in their ads. Cutting into what looks like formed leather might not be such a good idea. But, hey, it it works for you, all the best. The Moko case I have has the charging hole, and it is very convenient. :highfive:
got the same on ebay for like 15 US dollars, its not great but its cheap so i didnt think too much of it
I am still looking for a bumper case or skin for this tablet. It seems pretty rare...
Seems like a good case, although no charging hole would probably be a miss for most people.

Has anyone got any of these generic dot view cases?

Are they good? They're even advertised as "Genuine" for $7~8, but without the HTC logo at front / back.
Ebay link
Note: Yes, we know that not everybody likes the dot view case.

Here's the one with the HTC logo for a few bucks more.
Personally, I think it's the same exact piece of plastic. One just has a logo and a steeper price.

Guess what bro, those aren't genuine either even if they say so. If you look at the pics you'll notice that some don't have the htc logo
I have the genuine gray, I bought it when I've got the phone, but I'm curious about the quality of the ones they're selling for $8, that's it.
To be honest they look exactly the same but I would like a closer look. Sellers in Amazon claim that they're identical to the genuine with the exception of the logo.

I always stay away from unbranded stuff, but these called my attention because they look identical and there are more colors available
Don't put a 10cent case on a $600 phone.....spend the money on a genuine case.

Weirdly I got one on eBay for about 9$ sold as authentic and I figured why not get one to check out how much I like it and it was HTC branded. Although that could be faked.

I had an original dot view case that I purchased the week the M8 came out. I accidentally ripped the front from the back trying to stretch it to go over my glass screen protector. Back in July I purchased this one, http://www.ebay.com/itm/291190318285.
It doesn't say HTC and obviously an overseas knockoff. In my opinion it's much, much nicer than the OEM version. It will flip open all the way back easily and isn't near as springy. It also works with my .3mm glass screen protector, http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6100440084.html.

Don't use one of these cases for protection period. I can almost state with certainty that if you drop your phone on any kind of solid surface, it will definitely come flying out of these cases. In fact, if you clumsily open the case to fast the device will come flying out sometimes. That is in the original from Verizon. They offer some screen protection while in pockets or bags, but little to no drop protection & even in bags, the top & bottom of the device is not protected from scratches.
It was a little more than I remembered but it's 13$ http://www.ebay.com/itm/221503424128?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
The pictures are of mine.
Beyond that I agree with the post above mine, the dot view case is very functional as an accessory but as a protector it's useless it pops out so easily.

I ordered this one last night and hope to see it in the mail sometime next week.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/12142505686...49&var=420362064890&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
And I also agree with the two previous posts. I bout the official case back in June and two weeks ago, it fell on a carpeted space and the phone flew out of it as well as the corners that secure the phone popping off. Since I enjoyed the functionality of the case, I ordered the above since spending $40.00 for something HTC will not stand behind (I tried to get them to replace it but was told they would not) was not something I was willing to do again.
I will report back pnce I get it.
I had the fake one with logo and the real deal case I got from a Verizon store. Felt the fake with the logo was just as good. So went to return the real deal case at Verizon. Turns out I mistakenly packaged the fake one and returned that one to Verizon(honest mistake). I had no idea until later when I took my One out of my csndyshell case and popped it in the dot view....So while I didn't mean to do that, I ended up with the real deal case. But honestly the fake one closed better than the real one. That is how close they are.
I'm on the Dot View case fence. I really like the concept but the reviews I've read have kept me from picking one up. Does the flap "loosen up" for lack of a better term after using it over time. What I mean is when open and flipped to the back does it start loosing it's springness that people complain about. I like hearing that the generic's seem just as good as the one from htc. I may just have to pick one up at the lower price.
I had an authentic one, and then recently bought one of those non-authentic ones.
As a direct comparison, they both look the same, but the quality is different. particularly, the dots' translucent level is very uneven, so you'll get random brighter vs darker patches
on the authentic one, all dots have consistent translucency
OME or Knock-off, I wish that someone would come out with one that snaps on decently (even if it used double-sided tape) and maybe wrapped in leather. The plastic makes the phone feel so cheap! I had the original. I have since misplaced it since I got a cheap otterbox knock off for now. Does the job, but I do miss the DotView for the cool factor.

I have an OEM Dot View case and love it. I spent about $15 for it on Amazon. HTC also updated Dot View to add more functionality. And I was surprised yesterday by the Halloween animations. I'm very impressed by it and glad I got it.
SoI received my case today in the mail and here are my findings:
1. The case closes just as well as the OEM one I had.
2. The plastic case itself feels a bit thinner that the OEM one but I like that since I felt the OEM one was a bit too thick and added bulk to the phone.
The "Seams are not as smooth as the OEM but I am going to try and use a nail file and see if I can't fix that my self
4. The "Springiness" of the hinge that is in the OEM is not present in this case as it was in the OEM
5. The cover does not lay flat on the back of the case when opened all the way but I think that is just due to the design of the case.
6. The case seeme to snap onto the phone as well as the OEM case did.
To me, the $8.00 I spent on this case is totally worth it. As a matter of fact, I might order myself a second one to have different colors to chose from. If you think about it, for the price of one OEM you can get 6 of these in different colors and still have $2 and change left over!
I posted some pics of the case but it's hard to see any details.
Hope this helps you guys make a choice.

Bought this snap cover from ebay

Comes in multiple colors. Seller is awesome. Should protect against scratches from bumps and the problem areas of the watch. It wasn't as bulky as I thought. I got the black one. He sent me a white glow in the dark one because of a shipping delay of no fault of his. The white one wasnt my cup of tea but the black rocks. You do have to remove it to charge. It clips on pretty good. Im surprised i havent seen it mentioned here with all the sanding and such. The groves are not nearly as pronounced as the picture shows. Mine was smoother which i liked. Great with a screen protector for scratch protection. Hopefully the picture uploads otherwise his ebay name is archer28.
One more real picture. sorry about the second post
Thanks for sharing. What a coincidence. I was just searching for something similar and I found this post.
Could you pls share the ebay link?
Cheers.
i found him by typing in lg g watch r case on ebay. his name is archer28. he said he would be listing more next week. tell him Jeremiah sent you. i thought it was a great idea so we were chating back and forth a bit. great guy. said he was taking a break this week. i told him i was gonna post on xda so im sure more will be listed. large range of colors also
It's 3D printed, possibly designed by himself.
My only gripe is that you gotta remove it before charging. I can see me doing that each time I come home from work.
It's not on his eBay yet, but I'm eager to purchase it if the price is right
it was under 10 bucks. i think for me its more of an accessory where i wouldnt always use it but its perfect for those times where you would be hesitant to wear the watch or worry about it because of it getting damaged. its really easy to remove so its really not a big deal to remove before charging. keep checking next week or drop him a quick email through ebay. im positive more are coming and he took a break this week

Yea i use the cover all the time with no damage to the watch yet with it on. i just snap it off to charge. it isnt perfect but a pretty darn good solution. i dont want to sand mine or damage it while it has a warranty. eventually if they do a holiday sale i may get the huawei watch.
ive got 2 of these for a 360 great fit and protection
have 3 coming for the gwatch r
guys in VA like mysef

I been buying these from him for a while now ordered 3 so far because I keep losing them there great tho and great price! His father just died tho so he shut down for a while an eBay message he sent me said. hopefully he comes back because he is the only guy with this on eBay right now with watch covers.
Just bought this idk how a owner of this watch could live without this .. Seller was even nice enough to send me a red one .. Must buy

I agree. I got the orange one and found a strap band and watch face to match.
Is possible buy a cover? Because in eBay its ended?
