Hello all,
I have ordered my "O2 Orbit 2" already - to replace my well used and loved Orbit (1). From the press pictures it seems that the Orbit 2 is extremely similar dimensions to the original.
Does anyone know if old Orbit cradles will fit the new Orbit 2?
Cheers!
Where did u order urs from? O2?

"Seems" pretty equal, but Docking does not fit perfectly.
I ordered one of these cheap Orbit (1) stations in ebay
and I had some problems to get the USB frickled in the right way
to fit in den port of the Orbit2. Anyway, it charges and it syncs.
But it's actually not equal to Orbit 1 fit.
See pictures here: PPC-Welt
Thanks Olioaglio - that's exactly what I needed to know. At least it fits, albeit with a bit of a wiggle by the look of it.
Underzone - I may have mislead slightly. I've ordered one, however it is through my companies mobile service provider, and not O2 direct. They told be on Monday to expect further delays - so its the same wait going through them as it is through O2.
Cheers!
Hey guys just wondering, since i recently just lost one of the stylus......(And im pretty upset about it to) that just leaves me with one. So, my question is, does anyone know where, i can buy one or one of those 3-pack of stylus?
Here: Ebay rocks!!
Thanks alot man, just bought me a 3 pack for less than $7.00. NICE......compared to what i would have had to have paid through other companies
For the British amongst us, eBay UK also has some low cost ones here: Touch HD Magnetic Stylus

Dude, thanks for that link. I'd lost one of my styli in a car accident (long story) and so I was thinking about going to HTC direct. Just bought two from that UK eBay seller for £2.49 each with free shipping
Happy as a pig in poo.
I miss-placed the one that comes in the phone a few weeks back, not sure where or how(it was after I got the new case). forgot that a spare is provided in the box and was wondering where I can get a replacement if I can't find the lost one, I'm in the uk so might order 1 or 2 from ashcan's link.
Source for good quality stylus?
Anybody know a good source to buy a higher quality stylus than the stuff sold on Ebay? I bought a 5 pack on Ebay and they are all broken, they are made very cheap and break very easily. Also my Noreve case tends to pull out the stylus each time you remove the phone so I tend to loose some that way too I am looking for the non-magnetic version of the stylus. Thanks.

Brando Stylus?
Whatever you do don't buy Brando! Worse than Ebay, at least the cheap Ebay stuff lasts a couple days, few weeks. Brando is even cheaper quality. I just got 3 for which I paid allot of money from Brando Hong Kong, the top is very cheap plastic and they are are breaking/falling apart, the whole stylus very cheaply built.

A stylus for use in the car with SatNav
There's a universal tethered stylus on eBay for use with touch-screen mobiles or SatNavs in cars.:
Tethered Stylus
I've got one and it is good quality.

I think you will find that the so-called "Non-Magnetic" versions of the Touch HD stylus on eBay and elsewhere are actually inferior copies that unlike the orignals, have slightly enlarged plastic tops.
Yes, they do stay in the slot as they are a tight fit but it wasn't deliberate by design. It's to stop them shooting back out as the magnets have been fitted in reversed polarity
Incidenatlly I'd beware of buying ANY stylus on eBay thats sold in quantity as it usually indcates a cheap quality. Also, ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS check an eBay seller's feedback before buying. The top listed seller currently selling cheap HD Touch stylus copies on eBay has thousands of negative feedbacks yet people are STILL buying them ???
Mobile Brando...
I've found good ones on EBAY...
At first I was looking for non-magnetic so that my Noreve case would not pull them each time I remove the phone to put it in my car mount. But so far what I purchased on Ebay (non-magnetic 5 pack) and 3 Pack Brando Hong Kong (magnetic) has been very poor quality junk! I am just trying to buy original stylus now but who knows where to get those from since nobody selling these things tell you whether they are original HTC or cheap junk. I think I saw a 3 pack on expansys (mobileplanet) and I am going to assume those are good original quality but they are out of stock right now.

Did you in fact check the feedback of the eBayers before buying these stylus? I've found that 99.9% of the time if an eBay seller is selling poor quality junk it is reflected in the seller's feedback.
Dont just look at the headline feedback percentage figure - if its not 100% check it more thoroughly. It amazing that a seller can in fact be showing 99.9% positive feedback but due to large volume sales can have thousands of negative feedbacks.
Just as FYI, I researched all of the sellers and this was the only site I found who were selling original HTC styli AND had them in stock in the United States:
http://www.expansys-usa.com/d.aspx?i=173044
I received the package today and they look exactly like the original ones, i.e. it has the small black tip, exact fitting plastic cap with small rectangular "bump" on the side, the magnet, etc. Yes they're expensive, but what can you do...
Hi can anyone recommend a screen protector for a MDA compact V -
i had ordered a martin field screen protector for a diamond2 but it is competely the wrong shape ( ordered from a reputable supplier so fairly certain its not a fake.)
the one that came with the phone is pretty scratched up and and desperately in need of replacement.
any help greatfully recieved.
thanks
maybe its a fake.....
em......
just to add the SP does not have a space for the video calling camera, maybe it is a fake but i got it from mobilefun.co.uk
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/martin-fields-screen-protector-htc-touch-diamond2-p19940.htm
could anypne clarify if the diamond 2 has a video calling camera on the front?
thanks
Yup, it does
guess that confirms it - i emailed producers of martin fields SP and they were not bothed by someone selling fakes with thier name on it....
so back to my original question does anyone kow of a SP that fits the compact V? even T mobile dont sell one.
seller on ebay - protectionfilms24 sells MDA Compact V screen protectors, pack of 6,
I bought some, they do fit and are ok but to be honest I liked the one that came with the phone but have been unable to find them anywhere too. You would think Tmobile would sell them as they should be a good (probably high profit) seller !

I was looking for a replacement screen protector for my new Compact V because I find the one T-Mobile supplied smears and fogs the screen when viewed in unfavourable lighting. Don't you find this also?

Let us know how you get on - I also bought a TD2 screen protector that didn't fit because of the slightly different shape of the Compact V and am looking for a replacement.
htc pure aka compact v?
i have just ordered one from
www.protectionfilms24.com
will let you know how it fits.....
on another question has anyone found a gel like case for the compact V? is it true that the HTC pure is the smae as the compact V
I have just got one of the DuraSec High Tec screen protectors from
http://www.durasec.com/catalog/index.php?language=en
It good quality but a bugger to fit but for £9.00 including postage it was worth it.

well this one from amazon fits like a glove, excellent coverage and super smooth - would recommend!
I recommend this auction. For little more than £3 you get 6 screen protectors. Sure, they are not the best, supersonic stuff you can buy, but they are very decent at the same time.

Hey it appears that GagdetShieldz has finally released a skin for the Tilt 2! I had one on my Fuze and at 6.99 I don't think they are a bad deal at all... plus it worked quite well! When I get done with Finals I am gonna order one and put it on... Plus free worldwide shipping!
Found here!
Edit: I just placed my order... I will post updates once I get it in and applied!

THANKS.. Just ordered one..
PPCSG15
15% off
I got this too. For less than $6 with free shipping,you really can't beat that. I hope it's good. I've been using the Invisiblesheild for my past 3 phones, it works really nice if you take the time to put it on correctly but it costs a lot more than this.
Mine just came in the mail yesterday. I've been using Invisiblesheild for several of my devices and to be honest with you I can't tell the difference. The only major differences between this and Invisiblesheild is that it does not come in the fancy box with the spray, squeegee, applicator card etc. Just a plain envelope with the product. Since it only cost $5-6 its hard not to recommend this.
honestly i found this one harder to put on, and eventually i wasnt able to...
that and this feels.. thinner than invisible shield, but not that much. the texture is also slightly different...
overall for 6 bucks its a good deal lol
Installed
I just finished installing it, and yeah the front was difficult... kind of rushed to back and have a bubble or two but no biggie. I took my time on the front and it is curing right now! I will try and get pictures but it will be later next week, after Christmas!
Oh and Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays y'all!
Please post detailed pictures and if possible a scratch test. I was looking at bodyguardz but this is a cheap alternative I am willing to consider if available for T7373 also (not branded). Also tell me if it arrived just 1 set or 2 sets like bodyguardz and if the touch screen's sensitivity is somehow affected?
EDIT:
20% discount coupon - PPCSG20
I will try
MightyCrys I apologize I am out of town, however, I will try to get a camera from a family member! As far as screen sensitivity - I have noticed no depreciable difference in that area. The screen definitely has a different feel due to the skin's thickness, but I do not see this as an issue. My fingers sort of drag on the surface on the skin, but it does not impede function by any means. My stylus use is very limited but the stylus is usable with the appropriate amount of pressure.
Also you receive 1 shield only, but at 6.99 (w/o discounts) I still find it hard not to recommend.
You are right about the price, it's the best aspect but my main problem is that is only made for carriers branded phones and not for the unbranded european T7373 which I have and don't want to be doing some cutting myself..
I see
I see that now, didn't realize they were only for the carrier branded models. If you try requesting it on the GadgetShieldz website they can probably accommodate your needs. That is what I did for the Tilt 2, but whether it was my request or the fact that they were gonna make one anyway I really dunno haha!
Hope you find something to suit your needs!
I already left a message on their site, but so far no answer. .
Although it's strange to me that they didn't do a shield for the original device as well
If you can, please put some pictures of your TP2 with the shield on
I'd love to see some pics of installed product, thanks.
For anyone interested in bodyguardz, now is a good time to order. They already include the 25% discount for Christmas and if you use coupon 155A6 you get another 20% off!!

at my local best buy has them...i bought mine yesterday....its really nice....i like it...
Not a single one in my town. I did spend a lot of time showing my phone off because I'm the only one in town who has it. Anyone care to comment on the fitment of it?; this anti-glare Moshi wont even stay in place but it was free.
*edit* Found one. Nice fitment.
Put it on yesterday within about 2 hours of buying mine. (Took that long to track one down at Best Buy). Wend on easy and feels smoother than a regular Zagg. I'm quite happy with it! :good:
At best buy the front only is 25 bucks on Zaggs site the complete body one is 25 bucks. Just fair warning to all of you!
Though you can get best buy top price match the front for 15

Actually, the one on Zaggs site is not the HD. Zagg doesnt even list the HD version as of yet. The HD are always more than the original because of higher quality. Actually, im sure that might be objective, but to me it is. They just seem more clear, and they feel of them seems closer to the actual screen than most screen protectors. I actually Zagg today because i wanted to register mine for warranty purposes and its not an option on their site. The rep even verified for me that their site does not list this version, and that it will probably be another week before it does.
Now, having said all that, has anyone else experienced any issues with theirs scratching? I have the Zagg HD on my One X, Galaxy S3, and on the OG. Ive had them on my other phones since they day the phone was purchased and they still look wonderful. The one on my OG was placed on it the day i got it, the 3rd, and i actually peeled it off today because it is so scratched up it looks terrible. Im just wondering if maybe there is a manufacturing flaw in them or something.

I went to best buy today and they had a bundle special. I got the Zagg screen & the Rocketfish case for $35.
The reason for the price difference is because the one at bestbuy is the HD screen, which will better compliment that beautiful display.
BTW, Zagg is having 50% off sale for CyberMonday, still going today.

Ghost Armor makes clear protectors for both the front and the back that are just awesome.
12 bucks for maximum coverage (back, front, and sides) on Zagg using InvisibleShield with lifetime warranty is basically a "because why not?" deal. I recall paying 20 bucks some years ago just to have the front of my Inspire covered.

No it did not. I bought it without having my phone yet and when I tried to put it together it was absolutely to small.

Is the zagg LG optimus g for the at&t version without a doubt? They have sprint version listed and then just lg optimus g...thanks
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
I was trying to determine if the LGOG kit they have listed on the website will fit the E970 so i tried calling Zagg several times on Monday but they never picked up the phone. I sent them an email late in the afternoon and have not yet heard back from them.
kinda frustrating that they had the 50% off sale but not reply to my inquiry. If I hear back from them I'll update this thread.
edit: was informed that the LG OG (the one NOT listed as Sprint specific) would fit the AT&T device. So i ordered a full body kit.
