I will be getting the boom bass and the power jacket and the Mimi plus in about maybe another week. Won all of it from the HTC Elevate meet up in Los Angeles 2 weeks ago so just waiting for them to ship it to me. So once I get it I'll answer any questions. I hand some hands on time with both already at the even any questions? I might be able to answer now.

Very nice. But I'm planning on getting one I've seen reviews on utube. Do u think it gives a nice amount of bass and battery life
Sent from my HTC0P3P7 using xda app-developers app
Yea it handles the bass very well give the music more depth. As far as battery life Idk because I only seen it at an event but I did hear the dude saying around 7 or so hours. And it was very loud at the event and the bass played through very the crowd very well. But like I said now much hands on with it.

Boom Bass and Battery Case
I have both the Boom Bass and the battery flip case.
I love the flip case. I can easily go a couple of days without charging my phone with moderate use. I just got back from Japan and used the Max instead of my nexus 7 on the plane. I watched about 8 hours of movies (5 movies) with headphones and around 60% screen brightness. When I landed at LAX I still had 54% battery left.
I was very impressed and with the larger screen size I am finding it hard to keep my Nexus 7.
The Boom Bass is kind of cool. It does not appear to be crossed over at the right frequency. You can still hear some of the mid-range coming from the Boom Bass. Don't get me wrong in the hotel room it really made it to where I do not need to carry my Jambox anymore. Just wished it sounded a little bit better.
I am not sure of the battery life of the Boom Bass (They claim 9 hours). I used it for about an hour every morning in my hotel room for 5 days. Never had to recharge during the trip.

Got them both from the HTC UK website. The flip case from the UK comes with a stylus holder which I cut off since I don't use a stylus..
A little bit more expensive, however I had a visa gift card leftover from my birthday...

Actually went to buy phone at full retail. Said i was elligible for upgrade through edge if i turned my razr in. I dont even have the razr anymore. So he was determined not to sell me this phone at retail. Talked to his manager and said for me to buy out contract and start me on edge. He started pulling 3 cases screen protectors car charger and extra house charger, beats pill, bose speaker. I was like i dont usually buy accessories from vzw(too expensive). Told me it came with the phone. All together i paid $342.00 for everything.

The case worked as a stand for me without much issue. If you let the phone slide down too much it does fall flat. I was able to get a good angle sitting on the plane food tray that worked fine for several hours straight....
The extra battery life is what I really like about the case.......

On that note, from what I've heard, the Bluetooth connection somehow is supposed to only send the bass part to the Boom Bass and play the rest of the sound via the front facing built in speakers, right? If that's true, can we use other Bluetooth speakers and get the phone to keep the front facing speakers still on?

Its aight, I think I like it better than my EVO 3d, we just need some ASOP then it'll be perfect. It is a sexy phone I'll give it that.
ive got another pro for you well its a pro fro me...
i was wondering why the corners are at the 45 degree cuts, then i held an evo again today and i thought to myself "why in the heck is the phones corner jabbin into my palm?!"
when you hold a photon, the slanted corners allow more surface contact to the palm of your hand, so its more comfortable and easier to hold. it all adds up now in my mind lol
If you want real joy to hold get the Otterbox defender. Although a little bit of a lint magnet, the soft gel exterior is supremely comfortable as well as super protective.

I don't have the creak at all, I find that the back plate is very, very firm and much quieter than the Evo I used to have as well as the 3d. I do however have the Otterbox Commuter case and it is simply amazing! The defender is way to bulky and really is only needed for construction workers and the like. But if you so desire big and bulky, it is perfect for you ;-) . The commuter with an Invisibleshield is perfect for me.

Update just in case you want to ask for this. Just got off the phone with a Motorola rep and told her about the creaky battery door issue and asked her if they could send me a replacement door because I didn't want to exchange my whole phone for that and she said no problem. She said since im still in my first year of warranty there would be no charge and no questions asked per se. She recorded my serial number and verified my address and said fed ex should have it to me in a few days. One more thing I could understand every word she said no outsourced phone center here. Great customer service!

Wasn't the same as my last Motorola experience, I had to jump ship from t-mobile because moto briqed my cliq, moto blamed t-mobile and t-mobile blamed moto insurance wouldn't replace,,and I was left without a phone. I hope this time around I wont have to deal.with that again. Im sure Sprint will take care of me.
Maybe since Google bought them out customer service will hopefully improve maybe? Just a thought.

You couldve got the MONO Price buds. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007VEQ2UU/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Best buds for the price. The only downside of them is finding earbuds the work well with your ears. The OEM ones suck. I own a pair of Shure SE215 and they sound so good i sold my $300 Beats by Dr Dre cause they sound better. http://www.amazon.com/Shure-SE215-C...F8&qid=1364053054&sr=8-2&keywords=shure+se215
Sorry I didnt get here in time to show you the best bag for the price. The MONOPrice have high reviews everywhere and ive heard them myself and they sound on par with Klipsch S4
I love my Klipsch S4s, but was pretty impressed with the Sennheiser (Adidas) 680 earbuds which we bought for my wife yesterday at our local Best Buy. They are listed on their web site for a sale price of $49, but they were marked $34.99 in our local store. For the money, I was quite impressed (once my wife let me borrow them for a bit...). She got the earbuds with the little fin, not the over-the-top-of-the-ear version.

These are the best earbuds you can get for your money. They are amazing.
Also if you want to look at a comparison of hundreds of different earbuds here.
I use the Bose In-Ears. They're a bit pricier, but I can't stand ones that seal in the ear canal. The Bose are the most comfortable and best sound quality I've found of ones that just sit in your ear instead of seal.

Awful idea. Remember iPhone antenna gate?
Sent via LG E970 with houstonn aokp 4.2.2
Right. But as far as I know only the NFC antenna is in the back not the GSM/LTE antenna so shouldn't it be fine? I'd at least try it for $50 bucks. Also if the metal would completely block the signal how does the HTC one get service?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
Because it's not all metal. There are little parts of it that aren't, and that's where the antennae are.
If you can't find a replacement back, maybe best case would be putting this on the back http://www.bodyguardz.com/armor-carbon-fiber-lg-optimus-g-p970.html to at least prevent it from getting worse. It should prevent pieces from falling off and it'll cover it up and make it look better (at least in theory).

I bought my replacement from the same seller (but the price was lower then). I took it to a screen/case repair stand at the mall and they installed in less than 10 minutes.
I recently canceled my order of a Korean LG G3 that was going to come with an extra battery, a dock, and the tangle free headphones. I'm going to grab the AT&T version in 2 days. I very much so doubt the AT&T version will come with anything so I'd love to have the extra stuff.
Trouble is, the dock I found on eBay costs about $45 and the battery is about $20. The battery price isn't much but the dock is that much without the actual spare battery - a bit too expensive for my taste. Does anyone know where I can find a better deal on these accessories?
Thanks.

That's a link to the dock. The actual battery is easy to find, search up lg g3 battery and it should be there.
And AT&T is horrible. They literally include nothing with most phones. I've purchased three generations of galaxy notes from AT&T and none of them have come with headphones or anything. Oddly enough, the less expensive galaxy S series do come with headphones.

Thats why the Korean model is better, but I still have all of my accessories from it because I broke it. I have an AT&T model now, and I'm glad that I still have my accessories because people are overcharging for them online.
I love walking around with the Korean model and having the antennae out. LOL I get so many WTF looks
Just got my G3 from AT&T and it didn't come with anything but a USB cable and a wall socket. So much for that!

Finally my search of finding a perfect wireless car charger for a giant Nexus 6 comes to an end. I recently purchased a Pocket Wireless car charger from Amazon with rotatable metal hook that fits both vertical and horizontal air vents. The package also contains cigarette lighter and comes with 12 month warranty. It cost me even less than $40 with free shipping across the USA.
Post a picture with it. What's the point of a charger up on the dash if it covers half the screen? Seems pointless to me.
