I received a boxwave case from Amazon for the note, and it fits well. It's more plasticy than rubbery. Has ridges along the right and left sides to improve grip. All Ports and pen are accessible.
Bonus (at least for me): it fits the Dell Streak Slip Grip commuter car dock. Not perfectly, but snugly. I imagine i can take a dremel to the dock to allow the camera to work.
Not a perfect case, but a good one.

Hey,
Does anyone know of a case that is big enough to comfortably hold a Vibrant in a t-mobile gel skin. The phone is so light and fragile w/o the gel skin, but I would really like to have a holster to carry it on my belt. Anyone know of a case thats might work for that purpose?
Thanks!
I actually have the T-mobile gel case and purchased the leather swivel hip case for the moto cliq from t-mobile. with a little bit of stretching they both fit perfectly. Not to much work to pull it out or slide in. Try this out. They have 2 cases at t-mobile. find the one with the magnetic button and not the concealed magnet. Good luck!
I found a horizontal Rocketfish leather holster that is a perfect fit for the Vibrant with an average thickness gel skin at Best Buy. Not too snug, not too lose; feels like it was made for the phone.
I can't find a link to it on their website but it was a universal case and, suprisingly, very well constructed with soft black leather.
It has a swivel clip but it lays flat against the case so the phone doesn't protrude far from your waist.
I bought a leather holster that's made for the EVO from a Sprint store. It fits great with the tmo gel skin on it.

I got the same one. A few days of pushing my phone in the case it fits perfect.
The best fitting case is the leather holster sold by Verizon for the Droid X. It is a perfect fit with the T-Mobile gel skin.

I got the vehicle dock ($39 shipped from ABT Electronics) based on reviews here saying that it works with the Incipio Feather case. It does fit, but i wasn't 100% happy with they way the top clip was clipping (or not clipping) onto the case. The little plastic lip wont reach over the lip of the case and it clamps to the side of the case, with no contact with the rubber padding strip under there. If you have the dock / case combo, you should know what i am talking about. I decided to dremel out the little lip, now it clamps nicely on the rubber strip, and feels more secure. Here are some pictures of the fit.
Nice job there. Let me do it on mine.
nice this is what i was planning on doing when i got the dock. thanks for the post man.
Just made the jump from S2 to S3. I have the QCell extended battery and TPU case. Anyone know of a belt/horizontal leather case that will hold this monster?
I'll be checking this thread. I don't have an extended battery but I have the Otter Box Commuter on mine. Would like to find a nice belt case. I still can't get used to putting it in my pocket.

Look for a luximo case.. I am not sure it can hold an otterbox, but it has stretching sides and is larger than most belt cases. It worked well for me. I found mine on ebay, but I have seen it on amazon as well. A simple search for S3 and luximo should find it.
Luxmo
I have the Luxmo horizontal case myself (with magnetic front flap, two-belt-loop and one clip on back). It works reasonably well.
I have a cheap no-name hard-shell case on the SG3 (which I now use without the original accompanying holster because the holster grip got loose and the SG3 slipped out and fell to the ground twice; but that's a separate topic).
Although the SG3+hard case fits the Luxmo case, putting in and taking out is a two-handed operation as the phone doesn't "slide" in/out easily. This is due to the Luxmo's side elastics catching on the USB port or headphone jack opening of the hard case. Perhaps a more "slippery" TPU case or smooth plastic case would work better.
But the SG3+hard case does fit inside the Luxmo snuggly and I've been pretty happy with it.
I've got a leather belt pouch and after 3 weeks the belt loop tear away.
So I'm looking for:
heavy duty horizontal belt pouch (nylon or leather)
Belt loop as far I don't like belt clip
Magnetic enclosure ( quieter than velcro)
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Dan
Dickies makes one that might fit the bill. It's probably going to have a velcro closure though. Heavyweight nylon build, and one of the few pouch styles that fits an oversized screen.

I bought this one from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Leath..._1_11?s=mobile&ie=UTF8&qid=1348684194&sr=1-11
Gets the job done. It has a clip and belt loops and a solid magnetic enclosure. I use it along with a Dizitronic case on my Nexus and its a nice, snug fit. Its generic but doesn't look cheap either. For $5, hard to beat.
Here is the case I just got that fits well.
Cellet Bergamo Leather Case Holster
I already had an old holster from a previous phone that worked fine but I wanted just a pouch with no belt clip to slip in my pocket. This one has the the removable clip and the back is then completely flat which was perfect for me. I was using a $3 ebay slip in pouch for 4 months which is extremely thin but I wanted something just a tad thicker for the occasional drop.
I have had this only a few days but it is a snug fit which I like but it will loosen up a little based on past experience. One other note if you do get this and like the belt clip feature this one does not swivel but I think they sell replacements for this brand that might have other option.
I keep my phone naked and I do not think you could fit the phone in this case with a skin or anything else on it.
