Aloha from beautiful Hawaii

that bulge on the side is a serious buzz kill

Yeah wtf its the bulge about?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

just a guess here but I'm thinking the bulge is the micro usb connection to the backup battery in the case.

Looks like the skin is happy to see somebody while in a speedo.

The Mytouch4G 'Boner Skin'.

where could i get this case?

Too bad the MT4G doesn't have an alternate way of charging aside from the usb port so that a case like this could use a less intrusive, low profile, way of making contact. Like charging pins or something maybe...

Ignoring the side pins for a moment... Why is that bulge so large? It's like the designer has never seen a right angle plug on anything before.

I found this site with a review.

Recycled one piece silicone case with a comfortable non-slip cover and full protection. Smart sensing, rechargeable built-in battery that keeps your myTouch powered automatically. LED lights that show your current battery strength and charge status
Patented XPAL battery chemistry providing twice the power and ultra thin profile.
Still waiting for something that uses the pins on the side... *sigh*

are talking about the case or a boner

I got this case for 70 bucks from T-mobile store. I have used it for about a week and love it. The bulge is a micro USB connector underneath. You charge the case from the oppisite side when installed on phone. Can't computer doesn't read phone with case installed. The budge doesn't get in the way though. Almost adds a better grip. I would buy it again.

I just got the case today adds a lot of bulk and the case is slippery.

i saw it at the tmo store but unfortunately i'm not fond of rubber skin cases so i had to pass since i couldn't see it outside of the box but i'm really considering trying it out

That's the one thing I hate about mytouch 4g is the side usb connection!
Can't hold the darn thing while charging !

Case is a piece of crap because it lacks a power switch. This means it charges the phone whether it has to or not. Returned it today.

[Q] Case w/ kickstand?

Anyone know if there's a case with a kickstand? Or if not, will be released soon?
I saw on at the t mobile store.
Sent from my T-Mobile My Touch 4G.
I know about the clear one, any chance of any color ones yet?
Just the black and chrome one that appears to be a rebranded Body Glove case. The belt clip doubles as a kick stand.
Yep there is a clear case with kick stand

i got the clear case with kickstand i like it but when im plugged in its wobbles
plugged in what? charger or earphones?
I have the clear kickstand case, it only wobbles because the data cable is not flexible, it retains its form. Other than that, it is a good design.

Any T-Mobile corporate store.. We have tons of em.
Do you mind if I ask how much the kickstand is case going for? T-Mobile's website isn't exactly being forthcoming on the accessory front!
i believe it's like 30-35 bucks
dual-use for the kickstand case
For the clear case with the kickstand (linked above)--the way the kickstand pulls out (to form a triangle with the back of the phone as one of the sides) lets you slip one finger through it to help with one-handed operation of the phone. Also makes it easier to hold for ebooks and long-session reading/viewing. It was kind of pricey at $30 but for that added convenience I consider it worth it.
It's also worth noting that this case was super-tight on day 1, to the point I was afraid I would break it getting it on and off the phone--or, worse, scratch the phone--but neither of those things happened and now it comes on/off fine while still holding the phone securely.

just keep checking for scratches. i stop being a fan of their clear case protectors with kickstands because they ended up scratching the back of my hd2 and vibrant over the long run.
Love it! Got it today...

Moto folio case mod?

So I'm thinking about doing a mod to the moto folio case and make the front cover detachable and reatachable. The material doesn't feel like it will unravel do I believe if I use a razor blade to cut it off and figure out a way to attach the other side of the lid. Hoping maybe this will make it a little better for the dock however I will probably lose the stand capability. Anyways I got the case for 20 and could probably get it again for that price. Any opinions? Has anyone tried this? Please let me know your thoughts.

Why bother? Fold it underneath when on your lap and u dont notice it. The only time mine annoys me is when i have to charge it
I don't know if it can unravel when cut, but that was a concern of mine as well. I added a 3/8-inch diameter hole over the charging port so that I can charge it with the cover closed. It works great. To prevent unraveling or fraying, I melted the hole (using an old nut driver heated over the stove).
I don't understand the desire to cut the flap off, but I won't question your goal. If you do cut it, you can heat seal the edge with a flame or hot blade.
I just feel like the flap gets in the way but now that I think about it I will probably need the stand capability for school. I may just cut the hole like you said.

So I did it. I really got tired of holding the case open. Now it fits in the dock better as well.

Just charging, that's all you can do really other than plug in some speakers. Kind of bugs me it doesn't have a USB out of the dock. Oh well I only paid $25 for it.
Just put a USB (Motorola Camera Cable) inside my dock tonight. SWEET!
Took some doing, and had top pitch the top weight inside, but it looks pretty clean.

Galaxy Nexus, Diztronic silicone case modified to work with 3800mah Battery

I bought the Hyperion 3800mah battery for my galaxy nexus a few days ago. I got it last night and popped it in, and immidietly missed the grip that I had with the Diztronic case. Hyperion doesn't make a case for the extended battery, so I decided to modify the one I had. Here some pictures:

First what I did was cut out the of the case, the case it self has an edge on the back, and I used this to guide my scissors. I cut the bottom of the case out a little higher than this seam, since the edge of the case and the battery back don't match up.
After that, I laid some duct tape on the outside part of the case, put case on the phone, and fed the duct tape strips through where I cut. then laid the flap on top of the duct tape. I used some electrical tape to finish off the look so it didn't look too bad. The cut out for the camera is kinda ehh, I just guess and checked until I thought it looked fine.
Maybe this will inspire someone to buy a cheap case and do something similar, instead of dealing with a slippery, fat naked phone. If only it wasn't a phone... lol.
That's one way to make this phone look atrocious.

I made some modifications. Got rid of the tape on the back side, and put some red duct tape over it for some flair. Ugh still doesn't have a "clean" look...but I think it looks a little better...eh?

Seidio Extended Case
I am all about saving a buck, but you can't be happy with this.
I picked up a few of the 3800 batteries cheaply and had the same issue. I picked up the Seido Extended Case for $30. Fits even the cheapo extended doors just fine!
I can't post the link, because I'm a noob here, but I think you can probably find it yourself...
Bro you had me up until you put tape on your phone.

Thank god I'm a teen and not a businessman, so I can get away with ghettoness. I would be buying that sedio case right away if I was.
try to use a little border to hide the scratched edge.
For sure, no one will ever try to steal your phone !!!
Doesnt seidio make a case specifically for this battery? I used a seidio surface on my dinc and loved it. I would suggest getting one of those for a cleaner look. Very resourceful mod though.

Case i ordered

Looks like a good option, though it looks like you could get it for $5-$7 less, for example: http://www.amazon.com/Holster-Samsu...2&sr=1-2&keywords=galaxy+s3+holster+kickstand
Nillkin Case
I really like the concept. I especially wanted something like this on the Samsung Galaxy Note, as it was rather big and hard to handle with one hand. Always feeling that you could drop it while trying to stretch your fingers over to reach and loosen your grip on the phone.

Got mine yesterday and I like it. Great case for $6.99 shipped. Looks nice, decent protection, and the kick stand works well. The only thing I don't like is that the back gets even hotter while using for an extended amount of time. Seems like the case covers too much and there's no place for the heat to flow.

Does it leave the top and bottom edges exposed? Obviously, it looks open, but does any of the case protrude up?
I have not recieved it as of yet but open on top and bottom might be issue for me might get a TPU

Yes, it leaves it open. I've used my ear piece and my usb cable with no problems.
I bought the case for my GS3 and it works very well. Easy on, easy off.
No problems so far with my Xtremeguard screen protector. And dust in the case hasn't been a problem even though I work construction.
I never knew about the "sure grip" feature that the kickstand doubles as! I will be using that for sure.

i really like the look of the red 1 but it looks like i would struggle to plug the charger in
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008JGLU4W
For the us folks.
I have this case. I use it out of all the cases ive bought. The charger port is too small for the cable came with the phone. But you can stretch the silicone then put it in and it fits. The case is great quality so it will not break easily. Though I bought a new cable that fits better, but it raises the the silicone a little. Its not bad at all though. The buttons feedback is great, i can press them easily. This case is good looking, i just love it.

i like the look of that 1. im gonna have to look for a uk seller for that.
i bought the hybrid case and have found a couple of things i dont like about it.
1. the charger doesnt fit through the case, i have to pull the bottom lip of the case down.
2. the build quality is really bad, and i can see roughly cut edges all the way round the screen
