Hey guys,
First time poster here!
Got my galaxy s2 last week and was wondering if there are any gym-related accessories for the phone, preferably not arm bands cos i find them too uncomfortable when lifting weights (I do weight training mostly so my phone is usually in my pockets).
Was wondering if there's some form of sweat resistant cover for the phone or anything else which I should look out for.
Your help is greatly appreciated
Cheers =)

Hello everyone. My name's Pat, and I have been using this website quite frequently ever since I got my used TILT. I really appreciate all the effort that you users put in to help everyone, its very helpful to find these kind of forums. I have a vehicle that has over 185,000 miles on it because of a forum, so again, thanks for any help I receive from you all.
I have been somewhat happy with the TILT I bought used from a friends friend, but it has definitely been abused before I got it. The whole phone is failing day by day.
Because of this forum, I have decided that I am going to purchase the TILT 2, looks like an awesome phone. I work in the automotive business with a lot of mechanical work, car washing, etc., and I want to protect my phone as best as possible. I am sure you guys would know whats best.
So here is what I was thinking, PLEASE feel free to bash or advise:
Smart phone experts screen protector: 12 bucks or so, seems like good quality
The Otter box crush proof 2500 medium waterproof case....could be very useful for me in certain situations...let me know what you guys think
IF possible, id like to also get the Otter box commuter hard case...not to sure if this would fit in the crush proof case they also sell.
Not sure if it is necessary, but i would also get that protective film from smart phone experts if its worth a crap.
Pocket pouch for out-of-work applications.
Now again, I work in a dirty, rough environment, I am going to protect this phone with however much $ necessary... Tips, suggestions, please let me know.
Also, I noticed there is a wireless "controller" for the phone that has a remote and wireless bluetooth...headset i guess you would call it. Blue vision is the mfg. The only reason I would use this, is so i could pick up important phone calls while working and not have to even touch my TILT 2. My argument is, if I have a 5minute pass lock on my phone, how the hell would I ever be able to use this remote control if i cant see my screen?
Again, thank you everybody for your time.
i have a nexus s running ics, however, with 2.3 and 4.0, the nexus s has always had a problem when plugged in via usb, the display would become unresponsive.
does the gnex have this issue at all?
i ordered the incipio ngp case and an xoskin, however, i really don't think i will be happy with the case. i don't like buttons to be covered, but, i need something that will provide a decent amount of protection. i scoured the accessory FAQ and watched all the videos, but, didn't see anything i liked. the reason i bought the gnex was because my focus s shattered when i dropped it. need to protect this one as much as possible or else my wife will shatter me, since i spent our vacation money on a new phone (shh, don't tell her that, lol).
i go to the gym about 3-4 times per week, so i need some sort of holder for it there, not really a fan of the armband thing i see people wearing, but if anyone knows of something decent, i'd appreciate it.
oh, and insurance, what's a cheap way to insure this thing?
Hi every one,
First of all, thanks to all of you for your posts on this forum over the past couple of months. I'm new to Android and I've recently purchased a Galaxy Note after owning a number of iPhone's, and this place has been an absolute lifeline for information and helping me to get to grips with anything.
My question is, I know the official Samsung flip covers have taken a lot of flak for not lasting very long, however I've read that the flip cover in orange, which apparently is the latest version, has been made slightly differently to the others and could be a little more durable?
I'm just wondering if anyone owns this case, the longer the better, and could provide some feedback?
Many thanks.
I have the brown color flip cover. I only used it for 2 days. The quality is very nice, but I just don't like how it leaves the sides unprotected.
Hey, I was wondering if anyone had some first-hand feedback in regards to armbands to use while running. I've seen some cheap ones on Amazon, I was wondering if anyone had more information on one they have/use/etc. THANKS!!!

I purchased the "HTC EVO 4G Armband / Arm Band by iArmbands" from amazon (can't post outside links yet) some time ago before there were any options specifically for the E4GT and have actually been quite pleased with it. I had to cut off the top flap on the back because the phone is a bit too long to fit in with it.
The phone fits quite snugly and the screen works very well through the cover. I've run through some heavy sprinklers with this and it does pretty well, though most recently it did let enough water in to mess with the battery a little (they were some very serious sprinklers). It's also comfortable enough to wear for a few hours. All in all, it works surprisingly well considering it isn't even designed for our phone.
Heya everyone!
In the IFA Hands-On video concerning the Note II's acessories the guy showed these super cool flipcovers.
The ones he showed you just clipped onto the phone instead of the normal back-cover and they had a flap that covered the screen
of the phone when closed.
I'm kinda new so I have no idea what theese cases are actually called (think i heard something like otterbox once? Dunno if thats what this is called though).
Anyhow, where can i get one of these!??? I have been searching all kinds of places, but no luck so far...
I can't bear the idea of having to shove the Note II into my pocket without any means of protecting that delicious screen.
And i doubt im the only one that thinks that way? I guess most others will get a screen protector or so. But anything
that reduces responsiveness or screen brilliance is a total No-Go for me.
Help please!!!! (already preordered my Note II... need that case faaast)
Thanks guys and gals :good:
