Anyone know of a good one? Just started road biking and I'd like to be able to have my GPS and Pandora and stuff within view. Can anyone suggest a good one?
Thanks.

It probably wouldn't be that hard to make one, just do a google search on homemade holders or see what others say on google, heres a good start

P.S I may buy sumthing like this also, thanks for the idea
i like that sealed waterproof one but when i got to the ultimate addons website i cant find it anywhere. actually i dont see any cell phone cases at all
A belt holster is under $10 on ebay or Amazon. Zip tie to your handlebars or neck.
Found this on a deals type website I often visit. It says its compatible with the Mytouch 4G. I cant comment on it personally though... Hope its still in stock by the time you see this message lol.

A phone this size... it's bigger than anyone's arms I know. I just figured nerds that guy the Evo probably don't play sports.

HAHA, that is exactly what I was thinkin. If you have this phone, it's doubtful you'll have muscles any larger than it
I know the phone is large. I do a lot of running and I would like to use this as my MP3 player.
i actually got it to fit into my belkin ipod touch 2G arm band...just need to cut a little at the top to make it stretch wide enough to slide in the evo...it will be a snug fit.
My arms ar much bigger than the evo... haha... im just... serious
Google EVO armband and you'll find one. I got one for $4.95 shipping was like $ 6.95 but now I'll have one. I'll give a review once I get it and try for a few days.
Look it up on Ebay. 10 bucks. With free shipping.

Let us know how you like it.
I like using buddy trainer or something like that to track my runs and I'd much prever the EVO on my arm instead of my waist band.
Thanks!

It seems like a good deal. It fits into a neoprene slip that will hold the device tightly for when you are working out plus it has a zippered pocket behind if you want to store say a key, id, or money. It seems like it is of decent quality but not OEM or made for the device specifically. I ordered one for my EVO and one for my wifes blackberry and they looked different online but seem as if they aren't any different but for $4.95 I don't regret the purhcase.

Not much option out there right now, but this one it about 20 buck.
I got a lot of 3 universal ones from shnoop a while back. Look similar to this one except a bigger version I think. I don't have an evo yet, but I've used it with my Sansa e270 and Vogue both squeezed in. It zippers all the way around so nothing is going to fall out, but you don't have quick access to the screen either.
how is it that it works with the ATT HTC Aria as well as the evo...
why oh why...... just.... get like a sansa clip or something, they can be had for like 30 bucks. This reminds me of that british iPad spoof video where the guy is screaming while talking on his iPad in public.

Why do people have such difficulty understanding that not everyone has the same needs and desires as they do? Perhaps these folks want to use GPS program to track their run? Perhaps they are on call and need quick access to their phone? The reason doesn't really matter.

Agreed. I used to run with my Zune but after getting my Evo I've been using Cardio Trainer to track my runs. That being said, I ordered an arm band from Amazon the other day. It looks like it's out of stock now, but it's not bad. It's universal so the buttons aren't the easiest to get to. But, in my opinion I really don't care; it holds it on my arm that's good enough for me.
I stand corrected and apologize.

Maybe you try this one? Slimmer than some of the others ive seen and its designed specifically for the EVO. Ive not seen it in person but it looks ok from the site. Give it a shot, let me know!
Would work awesome with Google My Tracks
Evo Arm Band :: Run & Walk with your Sprint Evo!
um bb, can you post a link or the site? im interested in seeing one specifically designed for the evo, thanks!
i am still looking for one that will fit my arms...and yes i am a bodybuilder geek. the only one i see out there only goes up to 15" arms and i am at 19" maybe keep it on my forearm?
Hey guys, im in the market for a windshield mount for my EVO, and most of the ones I have seen on amazon have pretty bad reviews. What are some good ones you guys can recommend that can also work in landscape mode, and only on the windshield. Preferably with a pretty long neck as my windshield is a bit far. I looked through a few pages but didnt see much. Thanks!
There is a Kensington iphone, I know..it works, that people were raving about here that I purchased. For the price it is very good and 1/3 cheaper then the official Evo dock sold at Sprint stores.. Do some legwork and look in this section for the thread.

Search for my thread called 'Low profile car mount' and you'll find a good one.
Sent from my EVIL EVO using the XDA app.
Arkon Mega Clip all the way (+ Pro Fit VSM mounts)
best way to go in my opinion is the Arkon Mega Clip
The guys there are incredibly helpful (Spoke w a sales guy called Mark who was great), products are great, and they also provide VSMs (vehicle specific mounts) if you dont want the clip/suction cup connection. VSMs look much more clean in the car in my opinion. Not crazy expensive either.
They source their VSM mounts from a company called Pro Fit. Check their website out as well to see all the mounts they have. My Mazda 3 2010 wasnt supported according to their site, but again, very helpful guy called Ryan (he's the guy who actually installs the clips and takes pictures for the installation instructions...amongst other things Im sure) told me that it actually was, they just hadn't had a chance to update their site yet.
Hope this info helps someone.

Indeed... The Kingston was originally created for the iPhone/iTouch but works just perfect for us EVO users. HERE is my thread where you can see several reviews, one in the first post and one in THIS post. The goosneck is super strong and doesn't move while driving and at the same time when you need to adjust it can be done so with a little effort. That's a good thing as the gooseneck should be very stiff. In fact, so far it's the best I've seen to date. If I had to choose an alternative it would most likely be the HTC's OEM vehicle mount. Kind of pricey but if nothing else works for you. The only drawback I see of the HTC mount is it doesn't have a gooseneck, instead it has a small stem. This doesn't work out to well if your windshield has a very deep slope to it as the mount would be sitting too far back and you would have to squint to see your route or terrain on your map.
AMAZON has it selling for $11.99 right now. I haven't seen a better deal on anything else pertaining to a car mount that is low profile for the EVO.
i have been using a rocketfish GPS mount i got at best buy it has acctually been working really well. It fits the evo with any case has nice rubber grips ont he sides where it clamps and has to little feet that turn out to hold the "bottom" yuo can use in landscape or portrait and so far the suction cup has help on very well for me. the phone hasnt budged even going over train tracks and pot holes.
cost like 20$ they have them over by the GPS units
Anyone know of any cases with Credit Card or ID Card Holder ??? I found some made by Case Mate but it's only for iPhone 3G/3GS/4.
Thanks in advance for any assistance on this.
I've been looking for one for any phone other than the iPhone for months and I haven't been able to find anything. I even emailed case mate about it and they never responded.

maybe does not look as good but....
I finally found something worth getting. I just ordered one. Also work on just about any phone.
Since I can't post links I will direct everyone on how to get there.
Go to Amazon and search for Sinji Pouch

This is all I can find. its not for our galaxy S2 though. its meant for the international version
edit: I didnt look close enough at the it. I guess the "case" is a just a sticker so in theory it should still work?
I have that pouch. The part of the phone at the bottom that curves up makes it so when you put the pouch on... It's not flat.. So the end doesn't stick down well. However, it works for me until they release a good looking case with an ID holder... Hopefully something like the twelve south iphone case. Here's a pic that sorta shows you what I'm talking about
anyone know of a card case like this? can only find ones for iphone...
https://www.speckproducts.com/iphone-case/iphone-4-case/candyshell-card-for-iphone-4.html
Haven't seen one would also be interested in one.
P.S. I do however know where you can get the shoes from your link picture number 4 (seriously who carries his phone in a shoe "wait guys my shoe has got a notification")
Someone else brought this up yesterday.
Would love one as well. I use a money clip so that can easily be infused into a case. Would love to only have to carry my phone and keys. Hopefully in the future, NFC can open my doors and start my car as well so I would only need 1 device.
over the last 5 years or so using note's i have always used the same model case. I just got a oneplus 2 from a friend (i don't think i will ever own anything else again, even for an older phone it's amazing) anyway.. i am trying to find a thin case, with a kickstand that works vertically (for reading)
This is the case i usually is this one.

Which i totally love, but i haven't been able to find anything like it.. Does anyone have a recommendation?
P.S. just ended up ordering a cheap junk case off amazon.. ah well
