Whaaaaat?! You want a cover on TOP of your silicone case Evo? How is that even possible? Wait for the Otterbox dude. Its what you are looking for.

How about this one: http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/d-csl4hev4-hc.htm . It's on the expensive side but the quality should be great and you know for sure that it'll fit...

siedio case
yes the siedio case is what im looking for i like the case lke the otterbox with a belt clip but it leaves the sceen exposed... and i don't like that tanks for the info..... the siedio cas is what i'll prob. get.... thank you

im using silicone gel from sprint and over that when im at work i use a leather pouch also which i found on a local cel phone accesories shop, its not the best fit but does the job if i hit the corners of the pouch with a door or somehing the silicone will protect the phone.
only problem is it takes like 5 seconds to get the phone out of the case =( planing on getting one lil bigger soon

I'm going to say this as often as any one will listen, Seidio may make "okay" cases, but their customer service sucks. Pure and simple, is awful.

I decided to go with the silicon gel also and picked up this case: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290437641635&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:US:1123
I had one before when I had a Nokia E61i, which is thin, tall and wide. The Evo in the silicon should be a great fit, as it was too big for the Nokia. If you like, I'll report back when I get it (and it's easy to take your phone out due to a cutout in the bottom...)

found a leather case
so was at the mall and of course sprint didn't have a leather case that would fit the eve with the silicone gel on it..... happend to stop by T-mobile beacause they have the HD.... and what do you know there case fits like a glove with the silicone cover on.... its just the right size..... happy now....

Good deal! It pays to look in multiple places. I did end up getting my Krusell case and it fit very well, as expected. Another friend of mine saw it and decided he wanted one (I tested the fit with his phone.) I gave him mine and ordered another one...

Samsung Vibrant Argyle TPU Case

Pics of my new argyle case from Daydeal. So far it's my favorite after using the T-mobile gel case and the Samsung OEM Blue & Black case. Don't get the OEM blue and black case. The black rubs off VERY easily exposing the blue underneath. Very poor quality. And it's too floppy, so I've pulled the phone right out of the case when I had it in my jean pocket on multiple occasions.
All cutouts align very nicely on this case.

$12.99 with shipping.

Think i found my new case, thanks for posting
EDIT
Amazon has them for $5.95 shipped...just ordered one.

sold out
canceled order

I have this case for my Vibrant as well... Got it at the T-Mobile store when I picked up my phone (I want to say it was around $10-15) Its a 'soft' hard case if that makes any sense. Its some kind of hard plastic with the outside having some grip. I got the dark gray color case which works out nice since you don't really see the argyle print when its on

hey, I'm not sure if this is the same, but this is the case I am currently using. I had previously been using the gel case from t-mobile and I also have the hard case from Samsung, but this remains my favorite. It comes in multiple colors, I am using the Orange and liked it so much I ordered a green. Cut-outs are perfect and adds little to no bulk to the phone.
check Amazon, under - Amzer-Luxe-Argyle-Samsung-Vibrant
Stay away from their Gel cases, total junk & I returned previously.
Hope this helps.

Yes, the Amzer case is the same as this one. Glad you are liking yours as well.

Got mine as a cheapy case until the SGP redesign drops. I knew I wanted a TPU case after reading about how silicon is a dust magnet, and I needed something a little stiffer as well. I searched for "Vibrant TPU" on amazon and found these for around 12 shipped as well. I got the orange one, for no real good reason... Fits really nice and snug, not too hard to take off either. The Amzer ones have a cutout on the battery door around the GALAXY S logo, I believe.

got the same case from handhelditems.com for i think $10 its the smoked argyle, I love it!

Ultra Thin 0.3mm thick case, works with official extended battery, pics inside.

I ordered one of these 0.3mm "thin" cases the other day and it arrived today. Initially it feels quite weird and paper like out of the packing but once on the phone it feels pretty good. It has about the same protection as the official mesh case and there is a small lip above the screen bezel that it wraps around so isn't going to pop off if dropped like the official case does.
It is matte textured so won't get finger marks or grease marks and also the bump in the speaker area is less pronounced than other cases so feels sleeker in the hand. It works perfect with the extended battery!
Yes it's very thin and I don't know how much it will protect against heavy impacts like the Walnutt bumper case (in the pictures) but the phone keeps its thinness with this and to the untrained eye it doesn't look like the phone is in a case at all. It is semi translucent so the Samsung logo from the battery cover shows through as well whch sort of adds some authenticity.

Does this case works with extended 2000mah battery ? And where did u get the second one case?

1: Perhaps you missed the bit in bold. Read post #1 again!
2: It is the Walnutt bumper case as discussed in the other thread on the first page of this forum.

Does this work with the Genuine Samsung Car Dock do you know?

Was wondering about this. I have one of them thin cases, and was thinking of getting a extended battery.
Youve solved my query!
Where's selling 2000mah batteries cheap in the UK.

I didnt missed it. U said its for extended battery,but not to which..But ok.And where can I get Walnutt bumper? I cant find it on ebay. And which one is better? Thx

i have already buy this on ebay , i wait for shipping

Me too. Can't wait - Looks great!...
On such a thin phone, a thick case feels so out of place....

Compared to the official Samsung case, do you find it more grippy?
Also, how do you find the alignment with the microphone holes?

It's not rubber so it's less grippy, even the Walnutt bumper case has more grip.

Ah damn. I'm just looking for the thinnest case possible to increase the grippiness of the phone! I've got the official case already.
Thanks.
EDIT: Ended up buying it anyway, $2.22 delivered .

bought one too from ebay for 2.28 delivered , nice find

same...
always follow robbies posts on ocuk forum, so i know its worth a punt

Going to sound like a stupid question, but,
What keyboard do you have in the picture?
Haha

I have one of these, bought it off eBay for 99p and I must say it feels very cheap because it is very cheap. This is ideal for just dust protection, the material is just a thin layer of sheeeet, however I wasn't expecting much from it, so you shouldn't either.

bought one. thanks!!

Pics of modified bumper case with Seidio backdoor and holster

Hi all,
My previous thread illustrated some pictures of the Seidio case vs the Otterbox case:Seidio extended backdoor and Active case pics. Although the Seidio case was decent, I didn't need all that bulk for everyday (when I'm not traveling or camping).
I didn't have the heart to gut my otterbox case, so I came across Angeliou's thread listing an inexpensive black bumper case: Black Bumper for S3 (HQ pics) Recommend!! from http://www.ebay.com/itm/Simple-Black...item3f1b0aa03f.
I purchased from the ebay link and waited a few weeks for the case... Hong Kong address on the return address (I'm in the U.S.A.).
For the price, I figured if I screwed up this inexpensive bumper case it was no big deal. I took a rotary tool to the inside plastic edge so the Seidio backdoor fit. It's not a perfect cut, but I was anxious to get it setup. Additionally, I scuffed up the shiny plastic edge of the case so that it had a brushed look to match the rubber and the Seidio backdoor. Forgive the smudges and lint on my phone, as we're doing some renovation at my house. This case fits in the Seidio holster and slides better in my pocket when I don't use the holster. I find myself using the holster 95% of the time since I got it, as it makes access much easier while wearing jeans, especially when sitting down. The bumper case fits a little loose within the holster but is secure. It will not fall out of the holster (although I have a bad habit of moving large pieces of furniture through small doorways which tends to rub against the release tab; hasn't released yet though).
I am finally completely satisfied with my extended case setup. I might replace the Seidio battery with a larger mAh Mugen in a couple years. However, for now, I can use the phone regularly with all the battery draining features on 24/7 and still get a day to a day and a half out of the phone.

I have a bumper case similar to the one you use . I'm going to go cut it up right now. Thanks for posting this!

I purchased this and it fits perfectly no cutting required.

Case for Razr 5g

I ordered a case from Otterbox after a chat session. They told me it would fit this newer version of the Razr. Well guess what..... it didn't fit. Trying to find a case for this phone is impossible. Motorola has as very expensive leather one on their website but its not available to buy anyplace. Anyone find a case for this phone?

I just got the phone myself over 36 hours ago. Give Spigen time to come up with a case

No skins either. Accessory market as quiet as this community...

CaseMate Tough Clear
I didn't want to wait to use my Razr 5G without a case, so I ordered this one for now...

I tried to order that clear case, but it said it would take about a month to get, so I went with the casemate case that T-Mobile is selling direct from their website and got it in 2 days.

I ordered one of the leather cases that come up on amazon(not pouch), the casemate from t-mo, and the evutec s-series. All ordered on thursday 10/15 so far amazon says its getting shipped, tmo has bee completely silent, and evutec has a tracking link which makes me nervous considering the site said its a pre order... will update with whichever one shows up and when.
Downshift mind adding pics of phone in the case?

How's the Case-Mate fitting for everyone? I got a black one from T-Mobile and it comes off half the time I open my phone.

same here...

I ended up getting the CASE-Mate clear one direct from Case-Mate, and have the same problem. I contacted Case-Mate about it, they asked me to email them a picture of the case fitment. They offered a refund or replacement. I took the former.
I find the case to "dense" thick on the phone, more than it needs to be. What I would improve on it, is to thin out the entire case by approximately half, and leave the "impact" prone areas the thickness that is on there now (the nose of the phone).
The part of the case that covers the smaller display relies on the volume control buttons as a source of retention, and the plastic is weak in that area and gives way. I have not used other cases to date to see what other case manufacturers are doing to keep that part of the case in place. *That is the flaw of the front case cover design, and I think Case-Mate knows about this.

The only 'case' I'd be interested in putting on this phone is maybe a rubbery vinyl skin to protect from surface scratches and keep it from sliding off smooth surfaces.
Everything else seems too bulky... Not that there are many options. Nor are there any skin options anyway.

Well, got the evutec case, here's a pic, I'll start a separate thread to fully discuss it, but the basics are probably don't bother it leaves the bottom of the chin completely exposed not just the usb c port/sim slot the whole thing.

Just got the Evutec case. It has double-stick tape to hold the case on. It isn't too bulky, fits nicely, and stays on the phone. Should be a $20 not $60 case.
