Will a Skyrocket case fit our phone? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Sorry if this question seems dumb but looking at the skyrocket, it looks very similar to our T989 phones, and I was wondering if a Skyrocket case would fit our phones? Something similar to this:

Speaker is on opposite side

please dont misguide people
its very clear that the speaker is on the opposite side of the phone...
will the phone fit into the case... yes
will it work properly... no... your speakerphone will be muffled as hell

It will not fit. My bro has a skyrocket and the skyrocket is way thinner and the speaker is on the other side. Also the 3.5 mm jack is on the opposite side.

[Q] Skyrocket Otterbox

Does anyone know if the skyrocket 4g otterbox will perfectly fit with our phones? I don't see why it wouldn't, but I would like to confirm.

The Samsung Infuse 4G is a near perfect fit with one simple modification. Been using it for a few weeks. I Will take some pictures tomorrow and post.

I am not cutting into an otterbox, and I don't think anyone else would. So keep trying.

There would be two speaker holes then. I would think that the case would be pretty difficult to cut as well. It is not something I would want to experiment with. If you would like to try it, take some pictures and post them I would be pretty interested though.

Haha ok I totally forgot a step.....use primer first lol......so when I check it I flexed it a little bit and the paint cracked lol.....I'll redo it once I get the prime but it came out super nice

It does affect the flexibility a little. Makes the silicone a little more stiff but not that much more

Well I haven't tried with primer yet so it's cracking but I have to go buy primer after I'm done with work.... The red was also a fail lol.
I guess I just have to wait to buy some primer

Just to let everyone know that if your planning on doing this you're suppose to sand the silicone first with really fine sandpaper....
Also the primer has to be oil based same with the color.....work both with 2 coats

Wouldn't a clear coat of 3m or scotch guard do the trick without adding any of the "cracking" or stiffness issue ? I'm no expert, but if dust attraction seems to be the problem you would mostly likely just want to seal the original surface.....

Nice video
I just found these cases and then stumbled upon this review. I'm going to order the blue one, since I have the blue phone. I really like the brown one, but there's no way it would look that good with the blue phone.

So, quick report back. About an hour after I got it, I sent it back to get a refund. It really wasn't what I expected, I think I'll stick with the Rock cases.

Honestly I didn't care for the feel of it, the extra effort to get a card in/out, and also the lack of the flap(?) closing all the way. Really wish they would've incorporated magnets.

Otterbox defender

My local sprint store has the defender now so if youve been waiting for it you might want to give them a call. Fits perfect but does add bulk to the phone. I took the screen protecter off also because im using a zagg hd.

Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
just got mine last night. sprint store was supposed to call me when they got them in. glad i found this thread.
For those that are lucky enuff to have found these in stores near by, were they all black or did they have any of the other two colors? The guy at my Sprint store is supposed to call me when they get them and I want the Glacier one, but all I have heard was people finding black ones so far. If black's the only one being shipped I'll end up going with that if I find it first since I can't stand carrying this phone around without it being protected.
Two things for me is no way will I pay that for a piece of plastic and rubber. Plus with that wide of a case my thumb wouldn't be able to reach the opposite side of the screen. No single hand tapping anymore.
Think I am just going to get a cheapo rubber case to give me some grip on the back.

how well do skyrocket cases fit?

Im looking for an otter box, and the skyrocket has one. i understand that there are some small differences, but does it overall fit? i dont mind cutting holes for the speaker grills.
also, how's the trident aegis?
if you dont mind your speaker covered up the speaker phone is on the opposite side
