Hi,
has anyone seen a alternate battery cover with a
slider to protect the cam ? A slider like the Nokia N73 has
one..
open and close
I'm hoping for this someday too. I've thought about it many times as I constantly clean my camera lens. But I highly doubt there's anything out there for the D2. We can't even get any alternative covers, let alone one that has a built in logical function.

I see now I haven't any camera protection on my battery cover anymore. I thought there was a plastic protection on the inside of the cover but there isn't (anymore)! Anyone can tell me if there should be one?

No, the lens itself has a cover but the battery cover just has a hole, you haven't lost anything!

I know this sounds strange, but I'd like a back cover for my G1 without the hole for the camera lens.
Does such an abomination even exist ready-made?
i dont know where you could get one. but why do you want one?
Camera phones not allowed where I work.

^^^lmao..but on the real, id use some bondo or something like that to fill in the hole, sand it down and paint to match the plastic. I doubt there's much of a market for what your looking for.

Yeah, thought I might have to do that "/ I suppose I'll have to buy a new cover to do it on then. The plastic at the hole should be removable right?

Hey I would also like to have a backcover for Blackstone with out a camera hole.. heard about non camera versions of phones in US not sure.. I work for a MNC IT company in India as a Oracle DBA so camera mobiles are not allowed in my company.
Please help me if you have any idea on this.
Thanks

Why not just pop open the phone and remove the camera?
The bondo idea was the best, you could buy a new phone cover, chop out a section of the old one and use bondo to secure it, sand it down and it should look stock.

yeah I'd do that and just switch covers when you want
So in this area, you cannot carry a camera, but you can carry a sound recorder and 2-way communication device? Sounds odd.
I mounted a thin metal plate to the whole flat section of the back of my G1 so I could stick it to a large neo magnet that is glued to the dash in my truck. I don't care about the compass not working. Plus, I have tested it after about 6 months. If I put a regular back on it the compass still works great. No lasting effects.
I used the side of an old computer case. Cut out the shape I needed. I cut out a hole for the camera and speaker but you could just cover the camera and leave the speaker free. After I got everything smooth, I gave the whole thing a brushing with 150 grit sand paper in a uniform direction. Then I put it on my kitchen stove top on high for about 5 min to blue the metal. It gives it a great finish that resists rusting and isn't sticky or easily scratched like paint.

I am amazed that sticking your phone to a big-ass magnet all day has no lasting effects..
None what so ever. GPS works great. Accelerometer works great. Doesn't affect storage or memory. Again, I took the back cover off after about 6 mo. Compass works fine. Must be because it's solid state.
wonder if this guy ever figured it out?
very easy way would be to peel the piece of glass off the back of the phone cover and replace it with a piece of sheetmetal so they know there isnt a hole in it. you can get scraps from pretty much anywhere and shape them with a dremel...
I am considering the z3, but all cases are so ugly with all those openings. Anyone know of cases that only have openings for charging, power and volume? We shouldnt need to open the SD card or power charger all the time, right?

Just go on ebay. I bought one for £2.99 in the uk, which was nice and rubberised, with openings for camera key, volume, power, charging and magnetic dock. It's slim, black, but doesn't completely cover the phone. It's nice enough.

Nice that sounds like what I'm looking for. Do you have a link?
The Case Mate Tough for the Z3 only has openeings for the micro USB port, magnetic charging and wrist-holder thing (I think).
It uses it's own buttons for the power, volume and camera, and doesn't expose the flaps on the right side at all.

does anyone know a case that has no cutouts apart from magnetic charger port
This happened to me twice i think you buy Z3 cover
I used my dremel to solve this
You should to buy Z3 Dual cover and make sure that really compatible with it ?

Subscribing, interested in such a case as well, magnetic port only.

Openings for power, volume and camera buttons on the right, and the power flap, magnetic port and lanyard on the right. It does pry up a screen protector if you have one, though.

Does that one have edges which range slightly over the screen to protect the phone from falls on flat surfaces?
Roxfit all the way for me. Had mine for a year and is the best durable slimcase. Just ordered the new model with softgel edges that covers most.

Remains to see as i ordered it yesterday . I use the old model now and you need to have the flap open to connect it
Can you put a link mate? Is it white or black? I see that you have a white Z3, I also have the white version and I don't like the look of black cases on it.

Hey guys
Been looking for a case for my g3 for a while and having a hard time finding exactly what I want...
I want to know if anyone has seen anything out there like that I am looking for...
Essentially, i want the G3 flip cover (that replaces the battery cover and has at the least NFC) but no quick circle hole... since I am running cm12, there are no apps for the quick circle and want something that doesnt have the hole for it...
Does that make sense?
I am finding some that dont have the hole but they are snap on cases, they dont replace the battery cover like the G3 case does...
Or if anyone has any ideas or seen anything on how to modify the case I have now (have the one with the quick circle)....
I was thinking about covering the inside with velvet or something... but cant think of anything to cover the hole
I imagine everything aftermarket would be a snap on. You might check aliexpress or another similar site. They typically have OEM style accessories.

Hated that about switching to Cyanogenmod! It's so much better, but I have three different QuickCircle cases and they're useless. Wish they'd add support for at least the clock!
Well, I searched and I couldn't find anything either. Perhaps you can make a hybrid of the two cases. You can get a QuickCircle case with QI and NFC for $12 brand new on eBay, then maybe you could cut off the front and take a different case that doesn't take the back and put that front on it. If you're good at sewing or glueing it might just work!
Ya all I did was glue a soft piece of material on the inside of the circle case I have and layered from carbon fibre vinyl cut into circles to fill the circle. It worked. But it wasn't as pretty as I hoped. But it works for now till I find something.

Never seen or heard of this before, but this happened to me. See attached image. What is this thing? It doesn't move when I tap the phone against something. Pictures are obviously crap. Is my next move removing the back cover to get rid of this thing?
Phone is less than 1 year old, but I don't think I can get warranty service as I bought it in the US as the international "no warranty" version from Amazon.

I got a hair dryer and guitar pick and pulled the back cover off just enough to get the debris out. It appears to be a stray bit of adhesive or sealing tape around the camera lens. All good now, except my phone is probably no longer waterproof.

Yes. I didn't pull off the entire back cover, only pulled up the corner where the camera is. I suppose I could buy a new back with fresh adhesive to try and make it waterproof again, but I'm not sure how successful that would be.

That does sound cool. Show us some pics if you manage to do it.
I'm intrigued but I can't find a single review anywhere. Has anyone tried any cases like this one?
I'm not sure I see an advantage. Cases are cheap enough to replace as the plastic clips break, and the clips are seem more likely to stay together during a drop. A snap together case also doesn't have the possible draw backs of magnets near your phone. Have you read any of the reports of touchscreens losing responsiveness or not functioning at all in the areas near magnets (permanently) after long term exposure. There are also cases where it affects NFC functionality, as well as the compass depending on the positioning.

Had a magnet case for my note5, it caused the spen to stop working so I've steered clear if them ever since.

I have used a magnet case several years ago for one of my older Samsung galaxy devices. It was ok but today I prefer plastic cases.
Those mess up reception. I just saw a review on YouTube and it cought him off guard. The aluminum is what messes things up.

Sometimes I keep my phone in my pocket with cards that have a magnetic stripe.
I can't see that case and my cards in the same pocket resulting in anything good.
