[Q] Replacement Frame

I finally dropped my phone getting out of my car and dinged up the frame of the phone pretty bad. Since I'm OCD, I'd like to replace just the frame, nothing else got damaged and it looks like a simple replacement. Yet I can't find where to order the part from.
Does anyone have a link to order a frame (outer edge of the phone) or have done this themselves?
Thanks.

I could sell you a complete housing....$80. Typically you dont see the frame only.

Thanks! I'll watch that auction. Just exactly what I need.
If the stupid Samsung car dock had room for a cover of any sort this wouldn't be a problem.

I say just put a $20 max bid in there (prolly won't get to $20). It's well worth it, and easy to replace. My soft case ($2 on ebay) fits just fine in my car dock....
Hope ya get it

I bought it not sure if I would like it but turned out to absolutely love it and it comes with an awesome holster too that I didn't think I would even use but now I wont leave home without it. The holster also provides allot of added protection since it covers the screen.

Looks like a beast

Hey all! I was looking around for a replacement frame/bezel myself due to my power button issues.
Just got mine in, and it's what its supposed to be Looks like the real deal, and not some knock off 3rd party part.
Here are sellers that have black and white frames in, just in case anybody is needing them.

iFace Anti-shock Case

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

If you are interested in the iFace case, you can get the Tank version that looks the same for less, only difference seem to be it doesn't have the "Gold Electro Magnetic Wave Blocking Sticker"

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!

Portenzo Hardback case with Intellistand

Well my Hard-book Portenzo case with optional camera cutout and Intellistand arrived this morning. Have to say that the case is top quality and feels really sturdy.
Once again thanks to Portenzo for such an amazing case!
http://shop.portenzo.com/hardback-for-the-new-nexus-7/
Here are some pics
Even got a cool box drawing done by Lea who works in customer services.
Oh the pics above make it look like the case is a royal blue colour (damn flash).
It is really a "Dark linen blue" colour, here are some pics that are more accurate to the actual colour

Nice looking case, just don't really like how thick it looks when folded, and it's $54 shipped, too rich for my $260 device.

I have to say that I quite like the thickness as it is like holding a hardback book. Also the case feels very solid and I imagine it can withstand a few knocks.
Yeah it's not cheap, but it definately has a premium feel and is extremely well made.

How does it stay on there? Also seems like the edges would be a little vulnerable. I might get one of these for my lady.

It's got some sort of sticky grip tabs on it that hold the device in place.
You can check out the video I linked to see how it performs.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atSCZxbLg_E
I was abit worried about this when I read about it but this video assured me that it won't fall out or have problems keeping the device from moving about or coming out.
You might be right about the edges but the case is ever so slightly bigger than the Nexus7 so the edges of the device are covered so it would still offer some protection.

Do you have a wireless charger you could test?

How long did they take to make yours? I ordered mine back on August 8 and after contacting customer service, they stated that they hope to be done with my case by middle of next week.
I'm not sure if this is common, but the turn around times are terribly long.

I have an Orange one. I owned one on my OG N7 and loved it. The sticky tape never comes off. Owned it for months and never adjusted it or had to reapply. I don't have the intellistand. Mime has 2 strips of tape and the camera hole. I paid like $24+shipping for mine during their preorder sale.
Mines orange, yellow interior, and a red strap. The orange is more of a burnt orange, almost brownish. I like it.
Qi Charging works with it. I use my Samsung all the time.
Its a tad thicker then those Moko and Poetic Ultra cases (I have a white Moko). Both are close though. I'm using the moko for a week to see how I like it but I can already tell you the Portenzo feels more durable. The craftsmanship is great.

Yeah unfortunately they do get super busy during the first few weeks of a new product launch due to the demand.
They hand make every case and as far as I know they are only a company of about 10-12 workers.
Just be a little patient and I am sure you will get yours very soon.

Yeah the band also blocks the camera hole when the case is shut but that is normal as portenzo designed it like that to limit the amount of dust that can get into the lens when the case is shut and also you can't use the camera when the case lid is shut anyway.
Opening up the case allows the camera lens to become unblocked.

It takes them usually a few weeks. They handmake everything on the case to order. Its a small shop. Everything is custom made. I ordered one for my nexus as soon as they was offered and mine was just send thusday so ill have it monday. Yes i bought one of the nicer ones around 120 paid. But its the best case u will ever own. You could put it on ur bookshelf and noone would know the difference. It will take drops and everything. Call me crazy but ill pay for a USA handmade case, made with care then a cheapass overseas made one that dont last a month. Ive seem some people wind up paying more for cases of cheap crap then they could have paid for 1 nice Portenzo. Check they website out and see how real cases are made. But all this is just opion also. This is my 2nd case. My first one lasted 2 Original Nexus and still was in beautiful condition.
Wicklet

Mine came a couple weeks ago. Love it. I got black outside with sky blue inside with dark blue elastic. My sister's order is still awaiting shipment. Definitely a nice case.

I haven't seen any and I don't think one is necessary. The display has a sapphire coating which if done correflty will hold up to anything you can throw at it. I have a sapphire Crystal on one of my mechanical watches and its never gotten scratched at all after a year of daily use.
Edit: I bought one just to test but I don't intend on using it long term. I'll let you know how it is.

Unlike the other Android Wear devices on the market, this one won't need it.

I would agree that this watch wouldn't need a screen protector, because of the sapphire crystal display. That being said...
You can scratch sapphire. You have to try really hard...but it is possible. I've done it on a mechanical watch of mine, and it drove me crazy...but a gemstone can scratch another gemstone.
THAT BEING SAID...I don't really know what good a screen protector would do with this face. Unless it's also made out of sapphire, what good would it do? OK...I'm being facetious (damn...had to Google that)...but you are also "talking" to a guy that HATES screen protectors. Like...A LOT...never had one on a phone, tablet, or watch that I've ever owned...

You can scratch sapphire, but you need a gem of equal or greater H rating. So unless you plan to throw the watch in a bag of saphhire crystals or diamonds, we should all be good.

Like I said...you have to try pretty hard to scratch sapphire...but it is easier than you think. If you or your SO have any diamond jewelry...that will do it. Also, any diamond tipped tools will also do it. It is possible...however unlikely in day to day living (minus the diamond jewelry part). And again...if something can scratch the sapphire, it sure as heck will go through whatever screen protector you would have on it...

So the screen protector I ordered from NewEgg by ilumshield or whatever the name was got canceled because they didn't ship it so I guess I'll try elsewhere.

Dont waste your time or money on a screen protector.
Ive had a mechnical now for 8 years with sapphire crystal,and I mountain bike,backpack,and white water kayak with the watch on,and not a speck. Screen looks brand new. The bezel is marked up a bit. If this is truly sapphire we are golden.

I want a protector that can protect again finger prints and smudges, not so much for scratch protection. I see a bunch of vertical and horizontal swipe marks on my watch...

I just got this today from Amazon, its a TGSP that's has 98% coverage on the glass its not quite perfect edge to edge. It feels nice and seems to resist finger prints more than the standard sapphire screen. Pictures will be posted below as well. The install was so easy it was a joke, quality seems good so far. You can also see my super awesome Nexus 6 in the reflection of the watch because I used it to take the pictures lol

You use your shirt? I tend to be in the safe side and always carry 1-2 microfiber cloth with me. I had tons of them that I bought for my DSLR and previous phones because smudges really bother me. I'll let you know how it works out; if I forget just quote me on here so I get a notification.

Just a little update the TGSP still shows smudges but not as much as the sapphire do now that's out of the bag

I got the same screen protector as above and removed it after a day. I found that the additional thickness of the glass protector on such a tightly manufactured face made a big difference. It reduced the already barely sufficient visibility in sunlight, provided a channel for dust and debris to gather on my watch face, and reduced clarity ever so slightly.
Nothing wrong with the actual protector, it just wasn't for me. I think I will probably have to go naked which I don't like because I'm not sure I would prefer a non glass protector.

Welp.....

This hurt, I'll try and post pictures but I managed to crack my Note 7 last night. Stopped at the bank jumped out of my truck and forgot it was on my lap. Took a plunge hit my step on my truck and then face down to the asphalt. Cracked left of the home button, doesn't seem bad and I could live with it but it's a new phone. Filed a claim already $200 later a phones on its way and should be here sometime Monday. Phones only about a week old, so much for this new gorilla glass but then again it was a pretty nasty fall. Anyhow just thought I would share with you guys.

Damn, that sux brother good thing you have insurance. I Cant ell you how many phones I've broken because I forgot it was in my lap. That's why I bought one of those magnetic car mounts and made it a habbit to always put my phone on there. Maybe you should consider something like that.

I'm glad you said that, there is actually one that I've been looking at and I think this whole situation is gonna make me get it. Waiting for the OtterBox defender too. Sometimes having the newest stuff sucks because there isn't much out lol.

So, all you're obligated to do is leave a review on Amazon, nothing else? Are there timelines to have reviews in by? No hidden fees, this is totally free?

Any of those tempered glass protectors actually fit nice? I wouldn't mind trying one, just trying to figure out which one.

They have not all been free, but extremely discounted. And it is really simple!!

I have tried 2 of them. They fit nice but did not stay that way. After about 2 days the edges lifted and dust got trapped. I trashed them both.
There is a review a guy posted on youtube with his note in the sand and ocean .. no scratches, no issues.
I'm gonna go with just a case.

Yes there is a time line In which you have to get the review done, 10 days upon receiving the product. But there are no hidden fees it's totally free. The only catch is that sellers are looking for people with high stats. So before you sign up I recommend going to you Amazon profile and write up a bio for yourself. And either delete reviews that are really short or rewrite them before uploading you Amazon profile url to the site. Most sellers are looking for reliable reviewers so at first you might not get approved for things but once you getvthe ball rolling and your average word count goes up you'll start gettig all sorts of crap that you don't need haha

Yeah over 250 word count, got them drooling over your word count! Now you rule with an iron fist and call the shots lol

Here's the damage, got my phone yesterday and surprisingly I got sent a brand new unit sealed and all so I was quite happy about that. Of course my case (Spigen) for now came in as well haha. Put it on the new device right away. Also now have to figure out what to spend my Samsung pay money on since I found out I can't transfer that
All in all the phone took the plunge pretty well now that I think about it and think about how high my truck sits. Still sucks I had to shell out the extra money though.
