Guest kurtisuk Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Looking for a rubber bumper case for my hudl but not as chunky as the red Tesco one, has anyone here seen any as I have looked on eBay and amazon but no luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest greyrider Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Plenty of Nabi 2 bumpers around, but you'll need to have at with a sharp blade to put the openings where they ought to be. Doubt you'd find third party cases for the Hudl specifically anytime soon....if ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest danny19901 Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Question unrelated but is the tesco hudl any good I was thinking of buying but can it run GTA Vice city ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest greyrider Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 So, the definition of a tablet being any good is it's ability, or otherwise, to run one game? Dunno, but it's an excellent tablet, proving "better" than my Ainol Fire in many respects..if that helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PsYcHoKiLLa Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 It's not a game player to be honest, it even really struggles to run xbmc, if you want a game player got for the new Nex7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest danny19901 Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 OK thanks I was after for multimedia purposes and gaming and if struggles with XBMC then I might get new Nexus 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rem1x Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 I've been playing games and emulators fine. Don't have GTA to test, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest glossywhite Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 It'll be great when some ROMs come out for it, and even as stock its great. It plays Crazy Taxi perfectly - its definitely one machine to invest in. Back on topic... how does this relate to a case? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to let you know I have installed GTA 3 on my hudl and it runs fine so Vice City should be okay aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bennji.boy Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 it even really struggles to run xbmc Out of interest, what do you mean it really struggles, I've got a hudl on order and was planning to use XBMC on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest greyrider Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 If it's the same as my experience, read "struggles" for not worth the install. XBMC simply doesn't work, drop outs, glitches, or nothing at all. iPlayer, 4OD, TVCatchup, ITV player and streaming via VLC from my main PC are all perfect - as is HDMI out by the way - but XBMC? Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lister Of Smeg Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Hi All, While this is not "case" related, but seeing the last couple of comments about XBMC.... I dont think XBMC is ready/fit for public use yet. It took ages for them to release it officially/publically, even that was down to limited devices also. Of the devices Ive installed/run it on, I get various glitches, drop outs and crashes. I dont think the code is stable enough to make it a reliable product yet. Dont get me wrong, its getting better and is miles ahead of its initial release, but still think it has a long way to go before being a reliable option.... and so is prolly not the Hudl's fault here...

Guest kurtisuk Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 I've installed and ran xbmc on my device and streamed videos over my lan from my server and everything seemed fine. Are you using the nightly builds of xmbc? As I think the stable build do not have hardware acceleration but the nightly does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest greyrider Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 And...back on topic, sort of, a search on 'bay for "Tesco Hudl case" now brings up lots of choices, mostly half the price of the OEM itmes - didn't spot any bumpers, but wasn't really looking that hard.

Guest Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 As I think someone else has pointed out on another post/thread the stock hudl cases (tri-fold soft plastic jobs with in-built magnets) seem to be too tight and from personal experience can cause random issues such as sound not playing properly, system crashes etc. Looking around for a new case........... ebay now seem to have quite a selection :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hudl mudl Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) As for case i have got a kindle fire case from poundland in leather simil, and it is great holes for speaker in the back, etc Found the exact case on ebay item 310802440894 I got mine from York poundland they had maybe 50 in stock Edited November 24, 2013 by hudl mudl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rocket Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I have Tescos own leather case. I have noticed on 2 occasions over the course of a month that the volume control has been activated. I think the case is a little tight gripping the Hudl as it is quite difficult to remove.
