[Q] [Accessory Request] Need some help finding housing - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Ok I have tried to find the product that is appealing to me but still haven't found what I'm looking for. I want an housing that's made of the same or close metal as the nexus one. I don't like the plastic feel and thought maybe someone has something similar. Anyone see anything like the nexus one housing metal?

Heres a pic of the housing metal im looking for to get that works on a galaxy nexus for those who never had one to compare too! Thanks!

no version of the Galaxy Nexus came with a Metal housing. All the antenna's are mounted to the "plastic housing and would not function well if the plastic housing was metal. The Nexus 1 had some plastic that the antenna's could transmit thru.
What you are asking for would take nearly a ground up re engineering of the hardware. I just don't see any company offering such a product, Dare to dream I guess. Next time, buy a metal phone if you want a metal phone.

eBay sells housing for variations of Uni.
From your photo it's not the pivot chassis you need, but rather a bottom housing, much easier to find too.
Hi
enigma1nz is spot on, it would be very hard to break the pivot part coz its made of metal. However the case is not so tough. They are easy enough to replace if you take your time and follow the instructions on the WiKi somewhere. They do also superglue very well also.

[REVIEW] Generic ebay Leather case w/360 belt clip

The material quality decent, I've had them before for my SGS1 and Nexus S, it's real leather not the fake plastic leather imitations as other "leather" cases
However... they ruined it this time for the SGS2, the fitment sucks
when the phone is inside, it can't even close the lid, because the magnets don't reach
but there's hope, here's my easy 2 min quick fix
Anyways... don't believe what you see in the advertised photos as seen below

[q] white impact hard case cover

Hey guys I was thinking about ordering this, I was wondering if anyone else has it and would like to give a feedback about it, like if its too bulky or heavy, does it feel good in the hands, easy to put on etc....http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270858504441#ht_1904wt_802
I had one similar to that when i had my gnex i think it added to much bulk to it.
I Don't have the phone anymore but i can upload a pic later with a quarter or something for size comparisons...
Oh I think it does look kinda bulky...but I just ordered it, I guess I'll be the judge when it gets here

Post pics when you get it

This case is bulky! This case makes the capicitive buttons hard to touch since the case covers the bottom part. The white rubber feels very cheap, and this case just makes this phone very heavy......however the only two things i like about this case is that its great against falls and the kickstand is awesome.

Element case for the s3

Hey guys wanted to let everyone know that element case has a new case for the s3. They usually make iPhone cases but have ventured into the android market. The new case the atom is carbon fiber and aluminum reinforced and has a speaker port to reroute sound to the front of the phone.
Prices are equivalent to an otterbox, but the case maintains this slim feel of the phone.
Heres the link if anyone is interested.

Sorry about that I guess I missed it. If the moderators could delete this thread that would be great
Plus..the atom is not aluminum reinforced and does not have the speaker rerouted. Its all tpu.

You're right I was misinformed. Its the new case that just came out that has the forward speaker port. The video I saw was misleading
You're looking for the Eclipse S3 case not the Atom....

Real Wood Slim Covers for the Find 7

Hi Guys, just found a post about a real wood cover for the Find 7 and wanted to tell you that, maybe someone is interested in :fingers-crossed:
- slimmer than normal cases (higher risk of damage, if phone drops)
- no cheap vinyl decals
- cover glued on the phone with M3 (with a heat gun you can carefully remove the "case")
- extra side covers (so it's possible to remove the back cover, to pull out sim, battery etc.)
Covers can be found here Toast.

I'm not affiliated with these guys, just wanted to share in case someone was looking for a premium product ... For their premium phone.
Is the Find 7a the same dimensions as the Find 7?
Will this case fit my Find7?
Thanks
