Not sure if that will work. The email says the email placing the order has to match the one with the coupon code.
And if you also read that thread, he made some notes on version 2 of the case having less of an issue. In fact, if you read a page back in THIS thread, we got confirmation from him today that he is not having an issue with GPS so far on version 2.
That was his last post in that thread and was after he received V2.... and he hasn't posted in this thread at all.
Sure you aren't thinking of someone else?
Opinion
What do you you guys think would look better, the Vapor with the phantom skinz chromatic matching color (on either the front and back or just back) or the vapor and the spg skin guard carbon fiber.

Positive. Read his YouTube replies.
You may be right. But I honestly couldn't care less whether it works or not. Anyone wants to give it a try, be my guest. PM me.
I know one thing for sure though, I am not stupid enough pay $100 to beta test for a bunch of charlatans. There, I said it.
Man I really wanted this case to work out. (BTW thanks for keeping this thread civilized)
I was all over the Yellow over Black, but between the GPS issues, the logos and the overall lack of attention from the company, I think Ill hang onto my dollars.
Besides, waiting for two cases at once is just gonna push me over the edge.

Hi guys.
I just got my ElementCase Email with the Preorder key in it.
I only have a little second thought of buying the Case.
I am now using a iPhone4 with a Apple bumper. Thats works for me and fixes the DeathGrip for me. Only i Do not like two things about a apple bumper. At first the rubber finish on that Bumper (hard to take out of my pants while driving etc). And second the way it fits on my iPhone. The Original bumper fits well only sometimes it just a little Wobbely. The iPhone does not feel Sollid with a apple Bumper on it.
How are you guys experiencing that with the Vapor Case? I really hate it when my sollig iPhone feels like a plastic Samsung that cracks in my hands (like it does with a AppleBumper)
EDIT: Annybody know what kind of shipping they use for Vapors trough europe? USPS is a real drama if it comes to shipping to TheNetherlands.

Same with me - hasn't come yet & no update on USPS tracking. Going to email them tonight if it doesn't come today & probably ask for a refund.
Try boiling the Bumper case in hot water for a minute or two, it should shrink it some for a more snug fit.
I recommend boiling in 3 inches of water after bringing the water to a rolling boil. About 2:30 to ensure a quick dry with no water marks you can briefly submerge the bumper in a separate container of bleach.
'K thanks!
Anyways, not liking that new Solar Yellow or whatever they're calling it. Still like the one in the renders that looked green, but they called yellow. Wonder if they'll ever even have that color?
Haha i dont think the case while like that verry mutch.
Lots of people have done it. Apparently it works.
Update:
Reception - not seeing any issues.
GPS - Saw some at first, when I removed case issues went away. But further testing and similar issues appeared with no case too.
I also do have a set of the Lucky Labs (side pieces) on my device and they may serve as bumper between the case the the device, which may help with holding reception.
I'm going away Friday for five days and am planning on using the Vapor as my only case so it'll be a good final test.

Haha i dont tought it was serius
. I am having a extra white one and i am going to try it.
Is the inside of the Case also Aluminium or is there a protection film in the vapor case?
The Vapor has four foam like inserts, one at each corner which keep the case off the metal antenna of the iPhone.
That's because almost nobody if anybody has one yet!
I think that is 99.9% of the problem with the case!Are you noticing that dust, pet hair, etc gets trapped between the case and the phone? Thanks.
