[Q] Looking for a true bumper - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For my Galaxy S III I had a metal bumper, similar to this one for the S5, and I loved it so I want a similar one for my G4.
Has anyone seen one or know where I can find one? I would love to have it before my G4 shows up on 6.5.

I had one similar for my g3 that I got from Hong Kong, but I found other ones on aliexpress. Is this what you are looking for?

That looks perfect. I wonder how it feels.

Ohhh. I like that one. I wonder if it will fit with the leather one okay.

Wonder how well it fits considering the curvature of the glass.

I was thinking to order one of that one

Indeed sir. That is perfect.

Got this one.
This is what I ended up getting. I'm hoping it will work with my leather back and tempered glass screen protector.

Yep .. I saw it, i will buy from ebay

Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up buying the aluminum bumper from Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Y1UQ7R0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I think the gold and silver will look very nice on the black G4
Bonus, here's another badass bumper that looks like it would do a better job at protecting your phone - Not compatible with leather back

Have we confirmed yet that this bumper will work with the leather back?

Nice find... I think for $9.00 $5.46 I will order the one from eBay - since it is in China - and save some money over the one on Amazon and then, if any issues, I can deal with eBay. I like the concept of just a bumper so you can see the leather back. Assuming.... it works with the leather back of course

Looking for a metal bumper in this color. Anyone know where I might be able to find one?

Going to likely have to buy one of the bumpers & self paint. I doubt anyone will make a OD green case in aluminum.

The shipping times on these things are out of control. I need an Amazon Prime option to show up.

There has to be a reason none of the images on either of the links show one with leather. Hmm. I'm skeptical. But if it works I'll be getting one for sure.

Review: Ultra Slim plastic case.

Just purchased this plastic case from china costing me less than USD 0.50, this case look very similar to the samsung original slim case posted in other threads.
Some members actually say cheap stuff is never good, I think otherwise, I think this is better than the samsung version, as the samsung one does not cover the whole rim of the phone.
Anyway this case has a perfect fit that protects the whole rim of the SGS3 apart from the bottom part as seen in the photo's which is need to insert and remove the phone from the case.
Available in 9 colours
Where did you buy it? ebay seller or link? Thanks
Link please!
Is SGS official

KMS108, you are such a tease. Youvwont even pleasure us with the link. Looked all over ebay can't find the case.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Same here; looked on ebay and I didn't find the same.
As stated in the first post I got it fom china, there is no link.
This is the very type of case I usually end up leaving on my phone, it's scratch protection, super minimalist.
Grip is usually nice, it's snug, form fitting. Judging by your pictures, it's cut out are precise.
One doubt is the sudden missing bottom front portion, wonder what for.. Is there actually a piece of the case going into the usb port?
I would definitely buy these at even twice their price
EDIT: ebay search "i9300 tpu ultra slim or thin" comes up with 2 similar styles.
The material is flexi plastic, and the fit is like perfect, so without the bottom part rim removed it's not possible to put and remove the phone from the case.
The samsung version doesn't have this, but the case only covers only half of the rim on all sides, members with the samsung case will know what I mean.

HTC One Nillkin case

I was looking for a anti-fingerprint screen protector and i stumbled upon this case, it looks amazing, not sure if anyone has this one already and can give us a quick review, its called Nillkin.
Here is the link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Newest-HT...rd-Shell-Cover-Screen-Protector-/370808049120
Im going to order one and give you guys a quick review, it ship almost everywhere around the world, free and fast delivery in the UK and its only £8.00, very reasonable, it also comes with a screen protector so it might be worthy.
Looking forward to some feedback.
here are some photos.
Edit: just placed my order, might get it by mid week next week since its already weekend. will give some review once i got it

I have them all. I also have the Nillkin fold cases like the galaxy case. They are top notch cases, you cant go wrong with nillkin. Probably my favorite case maker.
I bought the white one but have since decided to sell it away because I've finally decided to use my HTC One with a pouch instead of hiding its beauty behind a cover =)

they are decently thin and look great though!
Is there a cut out for the power button or is there an actual button?
i have had this case for my note 2 and i think i will get it for my one as well. It was a top quality case.

Well, I guess we just have different preferences :laugh:
I've got one in black and its an awesome case, i'd say a better fit and more durable than the casemate cases too.
Two questions before I buy this case:
1) Is there a cut out for the power button or is there an actual button on the case for it?
2) Do these hard shells not damage the phone at all?
Absolutely love this case. Almost looks like the phone was made that way. Doesn't offer the best protection, but if you just care about protecting the back, this is of the best and best looking.

1. its a cut out, look at the ebay post to see more photos
2. i THINK these are high quality plastic, it should not damage the phone
I too have a white nillkin case and their grey flip.
Only problem with the flip is the case is too close to the headphone port, so I have a kld oscar 2 on back order to fix this.
Plus I love the black monolith look, reminds me of the film 2002 a space odyssey.

They fit nicely, I have one but they are not TPU or something like that, meaning if you should ever drop it, the hit would transfer directly to the phone instead of be being distribute thorough out the case

oh wow, never heard of this actually, maybe thats why they are pretty cheap. more style than protection.

Looks pretty nice, but it's funny that all of the similar style cases for this phone have a cutout for the speaker (good for those who use their phone and don't want to get face grease on it I suppose) but not a cutout for the notification light?
Where to cop?
Where can you buy this? I don't see it on amazon
This is the manufacturer's website,but I can not find to buy.:http://www.rockphone.cn/en/Plus/Search/Search.asp?pID=5&bID=0
+1 interested in this cover. It's a pity there's no hole for notification led, however it still seems the most attractive alternative to LG quick cover... do we know if it features auto wake on for the screen?
I tried on their site but there's no trace of this model; also googling around for sellers but found nothing :silly:
Are there any flip cases with the led cut out for notifications?

I've managed to find it on ebay with one sold, might end up purchasing one for myself. (uk)
Can't post any outside links yet but search on ebay "Rock Elegant Leather nexus 5" for £7.69 inc p&p, dispatched from china.

Just ordered the white one, so I'd expect it within two weeks. I'll post once I receive it. I am not really that happy with the cruzerlite one. I use it on the weekends, but I do not like the magnetic clasp and is a bit thick. So I figured I'll try this one. Thanks guys for posting pics. Looks decent for a weekend case.

Cases

So far, has anybody heard anything about cases for the 5T? It sounds like the actual device is almost identical to the 5, including button and switch positions. The new position for the fingerprint sensor will certainly have an effect, though...
I use my 3T for bike courier work, so a sturdy case is essential...)
Does anyone know if the official Flip Cover cases from OnePlus have any magnetic mechanism to keep them closed?
That RhinoShield is what's happening.
I'm using the included case until my cases from Amazon arrive.

bought some cheap ones from aliexpress. note that aliexpress already have a lot of replicas for the 5t from the spigen one for the oneplus 5
Just bought this Nillkin case in white, I liked all Nillkin cases used so far.
I have been using the Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro for my last few devices. I typically order the case before the phone and that case isn't out for the 5T yet. Hurry up Supcase!
I like this official OnePlus 5T Silicone case.

They do have amazing skins, that I can vouch for.
This is their first official case and screen protector. It does look good from whatever information we have. I have ordered them and the expected delivery is in February. Will update with a review when I receive it.

I had their original grip case for the Pixel 2XL. It was just a bumper case but was certainly very grippy. Overall it was a bit too bulky and ugly tbh. V2 appears to be a full case and it looks much better in my opinion. If it's the same quality as the original with this new design, I'm sure it'll be great
Curious how good the prism.... The case looks nice but I doubt it protects the cell as well as my otter box defender...

Looks like not shipping yet, but I would like to know how that screen protector fits, my wife is using one of those cheap amazon tempered glass ones that don't quite stick and it's awful, I just keep it in a spigen case that has been great, but sometimes I worry about the screen.

Take a hammer to the screen, and let us know how you make out. Lol.
I sent them an email as to when it's shipping. Id like something more specific other than "February"
I ordered too,...keep us posted on the response you get. Thanks for giving them an email.
Just had notification that my order (grip case only) is being prepared, should be shipped within the week
