T Mobile Case - new function

Okay, sounds dumb, I hate carrying a wallet. Discovered that I can very easily put my debit card behind the back cover of the phone and the case.
Yeah... Basic I know, but perhaps others haven't thought of it.

Very good idea actually.. Are you talking about the gel case?

Have you seen the cases designed for this as well, i saw a few on Ebay that had the debit card slot but they were leather. Pretty cool!

^^ yeah, the black one that was the only option at release.
^ got a link, that sounds pretty awesome!

Good call, I tuck one of those lint free cloths behind mine for the occasional screen cleaning

I bet you're looking for a case like this one for the iPhone.

Unfortunately, there are none like it for the Vibrant as far as from what I can tell by searching.

Awesome idea. Now when I palm your phone at the bar, I can get your card too. lol

I liked to see someone take my phone... they would be better off punching my mom in the face.

losing your phone would be exponentially gayer though

Just got mine, I just bought the samsung dock, so probably will go caseless, so figured this would come in handy. Ill let you all know after I get it.

Good workout/running case?

Need a case for running and working out. Need it to hold to my pants line well and need access to the headphone jack. In the past I found the leather cases worked well. Any suggestions? Would love to find one on amazon with prime shipping.

In for looking to see what someone posts. Looking for one as well. (Armband over beltline, though)

I just received this one that I ordered from Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZJGZ8O/ref=oss_product
Quality of build doesn't seem bad. However, I have the Seido Innocase II on my EVO and I may have to take the case off to get the EVO in. Also, the arm band may seem a little short if you have normal to bigger arms (I'm way on the "normal" size). When I put it on, it was a bit snug.
I'm going to try it out at the gym tomorrow morning and I'll post a follow up on my impressions/comments later.

here you go, had to look through my posts to find the thread

Don't get a belt. It is clunky for running and is pretty dorky (obviously that is a very subjective point).
I got this armband:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZJGZ8O/ref=oss_product
It works very well. I like it. Your Evo has to be nude, however.

100 percent agree....... it is very subjective personally i plan on getting this as you can pair it with some jaybird's and have it under your t-shirt/etc. also it allows to carry more than just the phone etc. that one i linked is running specific belt and all reviews in that thread state is doesn't move at all. Plus your more than likely going to get a better fit with a belt than an arm bad, small and big arms usually get the raw end of the stick

Which product did you order?

Ruggedized battery cover

Ok so I was asked to update this post. Some of the information found throughout the thread is below:
The battery cover can be found at: cnn.cn
(thank you NoNameAtAll from this post)
The cnn.cn part is just the case, no retail packaging (ie. no media dock adapter.)
jjwatmyself in post says that you remove the insert in the car dock and it will fit the atrix with the battery cover.
digital.aaron in post has some pictures with the cover on the phone.
jjwatmyself has some pictures here.
digital.aaron says in this post: it's very different from Otterbox's rubber. It hasn't picked up any fuzz from my pocket, and I've got on fleece sweatpants. Used to be a nightmare for my 'Box'd iPhone.
Some problems people were are having, the sides are flimsy (you get used to this) and the different colors seem to have different textures.
=============OLD POST===========================
I bought the atrix from AT&T and I ordered a ruggedized battery cover from some website for $30 w/ shipping. My question is as I have neither yet, does anyone have the cover and is it good? Does it feel like it will protect the phone a bit and help hold the phone in the hand?

I'd be interested in this too. Asked a while back and it seemed no one has tried them, because there were no responses. I don't want to spend $30 on one if it feels cheap or doesn't fit right

Well, if no one else has tried I already ordered it so when I get both phone and cover in I will update this thread. It might be a while as I am stationed in Japan so my mom will be sending me the phone Tuesday or Wednesday and it may take a week or two to get here.

oh by the way I ordered mine from After market Cellular. Anyone have any dealings with them, are they honest?
This is the specific one I bought:
http://www.aftermarketcellular.com/ic/89490N.html

I've been looking at one of these batter covers but several sites that I have checked show an estimated ship date or out of stock. Have you received a shipping confirmation for the battery cover yet?

These are rubberized battery covers and thus replace the stock plastic cover. They are from Motorola and are rumored to be out about April 15th. This is why several places show "out of stock", because they aren't out yet.

I have not recieved a shipping confermation, but the store was not showing them as out of stock r estimated shipping date. Now that a320ca said they are nto supposed to be out until the 15th I am worried that the store is a sham because it never told me that.

FYI, I just called them and they said they are out of stock of the Blue one. She asked if I wanted her to check stock on the Green one but I already knew what the answer would be. Store doesn't appear to be a sham but then again, you might want to look into your order if are expecting it sooner than later.

I hope there will be pictures of the cover when people get them. I an intensely eyeballing the green one.

I've also ordered one, from 123cellsupply.com.
I don't have a shipping confirmation yet, either. I've put in several emails to find out the status, but no response yet.

Does the ruggedized battery cover wrap around the front at all, to provide a small protective lip around the screen?
Has anyone actually seen one of these in person?

These are in stock in my local bell store for 29.95. I might consider getting one of these

Really? Where's your local Bell? In the GVA by any chance? I ordered one from Bell online, because it didn't seem like there were any in stock in the Bell stores here in Vancouver... Admittedly, I didn't try very hard to find them.
But my order is still pending, turns out they're out of stock online...

Can someone show me a link?
I have googled and not found nothing related to what I think you guys are talking about.

Yes it wraps around the entire phone

They do look nice.... but to be honest, if it's actually silicon.... i dunno if i'd want it. That's basically my issue with the Otterbox cases. That outside cover attracts dust from alternate dimensions of your pocket. I can't imagine what the rugged battery cover might look like if it's the same material.

i want!! thats simply awesome. i wish amazon had green dangit

Wallet Case

I'm looking for a wallet type case for this phone. Has anyone come across something that can hold a couple of credit cards?
The other option is something that can be modified like a case for an extended battery or something along those lines.
XDA won't let me post links so this is the iphone version of what I'm looking for:
Google: iphone credit card case
Click on "Sonix iPhone 4 Pocket Case"

The hard way wold be going to your local shoe-maker (cobbler) or repair place (perhaps a saddle shop where they MAKE/Fix them (we dont have those in NY)
Tell the guy what your looking for. I could make it for you (and I am just good with my hands) in ten minutes if I had the leather, knife and a leather sewing needle and requisite thread. You probably could make one out of an old purse you found at a thrift store and do a fine job in as much time as it would take you to read & respond to this.

Its more than a wallet but it does fit in you pocket and they last a looong time. I've had one for most of thirty years and the only thing wrong with it is the loop that holds the pen is torn, Rick

Well you could try this one...
http://www.extremepda.com/Swiss-Leatherware-Smartphone-Wallet-Case_p_764.html
It is "generic" case and suppose to fit "99%" of the smart phones out there... Of course ours is probably the other 1%.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I tried emailing case-mate and their response was that they do not plan to make one for the Galaxy S2. Not even the international version.
I can see why...
If you take a credit card/ID and hold it between the speaker and flash, it just barely fits. If you take tolerances and materials into consideration, it just wont fit at all. I guess the best best would be that extremepda case.

I saw a leather case at best buy that had a slot on the front for credit card/money

I got a few of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SAMSUNG-GALAXY-S2-S-II-I9100-ZENIS-DESKTOP-DOCK-CHARGER-CRADLE-/220883609072?_trksid=p4340.m185&_trkparms=algo%3DSIC.NPJS%26its%3DI%252BC%26itu%3DUA%26otn%3D5%26pmod%3D270865448058%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D5859734319996833550
and they have worked with all my Samsung Android phones WITH "thinner" type cases. When I put the Diztronics case on the GNex it didn't fit by a hair so I took a Dremel tool and ground down the front edge just a little. It looks a LOT worse in the picture (since it is close up and due to the lighting) then it does on my desk but it could also be done a lot neater. I kind of slipped with the Dremel. For the price, these docks can't be beat. They only make them in 1 size yet they advertise them as if they are different (and jack up the prices depending on the phone). There is NO audio or video out, it's simply a charge/sync/nightstand cradle.

Today I broke down and ordered the "RND Power Solutions Deluxe 2nd Battery Charger and Data Sync Cradle" from amazon.com (too new to post a link, just give it a search).
This may be what you are looking for, because it is described as having an insert you can put in/remove depending on the case you are using.
I should have this guy in-hand Friday and I can give you a more detailed review.

Looks like his LTE phone with a thin case was a tight fit, so this may not be what you are looking for :-(

Not sure you´r correct, since they are saying in the reviews, that the sparepart charger doesn´t fit their type of battery, but its ment for the GSM version. .
So IMO this one on Amazon is for the GSM-version, but still wil work for the LTE versions phones, but not the spare battery they may want to charge..

That looks to be the same as the KiDiGi one listed on the Mobi site except the Amazon price is a lot less expensive. However on the Mobi site it is listed as a GSM (i9250) version.
I've been tempted as they also have a car dock with the same form factor but I'm really looking for something that looks decent but allows me to leave my Qmadix case on the phone.

I finally got the charging dock from 4u-mobi and can confirm that the GSM model with a casemate barely there case will fit..
I also got a s-curve TPU case, that fit this dock as well....
In both combinations you need to take off the insert

I just ended up getting the gogostand and taping it to my desk. Works flawless. Yes it doesnt charge, but I couldnt find anything that I liked without having to remove my case each time. And I wasnt going to do that.
