I am designing a few cases for the s3 to be produced by 3d printer but I do not have the exact dimensions.
If anyone has a schematic or, better yet, a 3d model of the s3 please let me know.
Once I have this information I would also like to hear suggestions for case styles and features.
Thanks
Penlite
If you are asking about the size of S3, it's 136.6 x 70.6 x 8.6 mm

I would love to have an actual form fitting (clip in) windshield mount, but I know that is not what you are working on!
Hmm... i'd love bumpers with a connector on the back with a credit card slot

I heard that Verizon one to be a little bit bigger than other versions. -> I read this from Phonearena, but Phonearena was wrong!

What is needed is a cordura nylon case for people who work and play outside, and not indoors. Something that will never let the phone fall from it's grasp unless you are cut in two somehow. Something tough, durable, and black. Along the lines of Maxpedition or Nite Ize quality.
Thanks.. but I need a detailed schematic with curvatures and bottom placements
Ha mate i'm looking for the exact thing. For example when you buy almost anything from mcmaster they give you an option of downloading the CAD file for that part. I've been looking for a long time, if you find anything reputable lemme know. I get mine next wed and i work in product dev at an orthopedic company and have access to some pretty impressive lil inspenction devices like an optical comparitor and cmm machine, and will draft up a 3d model to work off of, accurate to well past what a 3d printer can produce, probably like around .0005
Did anyone ever find anything? I want to make my own and possibly a kick-stand. Also going to do it with an extended battery. I have to model something for my school project.

if it does that would be great looks to be .3MM wider sooooo don't know if it will or not.
"Vibrant Dimensions 122.4 x 64.5 x 9.9 mm"

Alright then. I'll order it and let everyone know lmao!

Ouch on the price. A very good full case can be had for less.
Interested to know how it fits though in case a replacement becomes necessary at some point.
Thanks.

The Google is a nice touch why not just get a decal?

pretty sure that .3mm measurement difference is just an error. there is zero reason why samsung would make one phone wider or slimmer... the vibrant even shares the chassis with the i9000... the forward facing camera hole is even present.

Duno but Captive cases wont work so just figured that was the same with the i9000, would be better for us if it were this way when the white cases come out.

The captivate is the most unique Galaxy S phone in terms of appearances, the Vibrant is one of the phones that is pretty much alike to the I9000 aside from the 4 keys and a front camera.
The captivate's method of taking it off is different as well.

says its not compatible with vibrant, i would assume if i9000 and vibrant shared exact same battery cover, then this would fit, meaning the one you purchased would fit too. since this doesn't, maybe the listing you showed won't either?
ps... why does it say unlocked i9000 only, what does being locked or unlocked have anything to do with a physical battery cover?
I really don't know. We'll see when it gets here.

It still hasn't arrived... Starting an eBay case if it doesn't come by Wednesday ;/

It looks to be more of a sleeve type than an actual case that stays on while in use, but I'm still a bit interested in finding out more. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I've been looking for a targus case but this is the first I've seen. It is not available on their web site so I'm betting it is a prototype or an exclusive. I hope they begin selling this because I want!
Shot an email to Targus. I doubt I'll get anything of help back but it's worth a shot.
Interested in this too. I just want a 9"-10" version of the 13" Targus case I have for my MacBookPro. I stuff the Xoom in my backpack to go between classes and I'd like to be able to have a laptop sleeve type setup.
Ask him where he works!

I have designed a generic kickstand that will work on all mobile phones, e-readers, and tablets (two may be needed for larger or heavy tablets) and would want to know if this is a desired option if it were available and what you think it would be worth.
I have one on my personal epic and it works perfect and is Very Thin. I will make a video or pictures if there is enough interest. It definitely works better than the Evo or Thunderbolt kickstands, it is not as "tip-able" in portrait or landscape mode.
This would be no required modification to install and would take less than 5 seconds to install. It is simply called kickstand4u tm mobile kickstand for all mobile devices!
******************************************
As of 11-22-2012, the kickstand4u tm is now available.
Please use the Promotion Code without quotes "XDA" for a 25% discount and to say thanks to all of you! Please help me spread the word. I hope you enjoy the kickstand4u tm as much as I do. I have another development coming soon made specifically for tablets of all sizes and will simply attach itself to the kickstand4u tm. I will post information about that here soon. Enjoy!
So Bottom line: Retail Price = $9.95 - XDA 25% off Discount Promotion Code = your price of $7.46 - shipping and handling = $2.45 - Your total cost = $9.91 - price may vary depending on postage - Yes we take PayPal.
******************************************
Just a Note for those that are still on the fence.
The "XDA" Promotion Code will last as long as I can keep it going. I appreciate the support that you have given me.
I thank all of you that have participated in this initial offering. If you have liked your kickstand4u tm, please help me spread the word. I hope you enjoy the kickstand4u tm as much as I do. For those that are using the kickstand4u tm on their tablets or e-readers, keep checking back from time to time, as the Tablet Extender and Tripod Mount will be available sometime the summer of 2014 along with a new 2nd Generation kickstand4u tm mobile kickstand for all mobile devices. Of course the 1st Generation will be able to make use of these two new add-ons, and there is an upgrade - so checkout our new website for more information! Thank you again!
Thanks very much to all!

Link to "Alternate" way to Close the kickstand4u tm
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVYXCUIEJgY
This way is especially helpful when new, as the kickstand4u tm is a little stiff. This is the proper area "touch point" to use when closing. When the pressure is at the very edge of the kickstand blade, it will close very easily. When closing by hand, use the same principle. Pressing on the short piece of plastic that looks like an upside down capital "T" will damage the kickstand.
******************************************
*Install tips for Tablets 7" and up: when determining best position on tablets 7" and up, placing the kickstand4u ™ in the "center of your tablet" seems to work best. As far as kickstand orientation on your tablet, see links below:
Sorry for the rough pictures, I will get some better ones up, but at least this will give you an idea.

If it were to your liking - would you - I can't post pictures yet - but it would be about the thickness one and a half pennies flat.
I have to keep the idea closed for a short time - thank you very much for your comment!
I would love this.... once I saw the kickstand case for the evo3d I knew I had to have one for my epic
yeah not sure why you wouln't try to post pics somewhere... as it is there are cases for the epic that have a kickstand so its not the first time... put them on picassa or something
I know my g/f wants one for our phone.

Actually, I have to talk to the mfg first - but trying to get a feel for it before our talks.
If things don't go as I planned, I will probably post pics and instructions on how to build one if you are handy, but doing it that way is more costly (approximately $34.00 plus labor) - therefore generic.
But will post pictures and or videos as soon as I get the word. Thanks for the response!
I would like it if it fit my case that I have AND I would like it if it kick-standed in portrait and landscape (and landscape with the keyboard open, but I don't think that is possible).
I am pretty happy with my Izel stand, so it would have to be even better.

Well, you wouldn't have to carry it as a seperate accessory and it is definitly thinner. Aslo when it is attached to your phone, it feels Very comfortable!

Those are all pluses. Does it still work if you have a case on your phone?
hell yes i want one as long as its not bulky as hell
4 me the answer is a definite no. When deciding between the epic and evo the kickstand was 1 of the major contributing factors. I didn't want to break 1 off in my pocket.

I had a Seidio Surface case/holster combo for my previous phone and it was my favorite case. I wanted to get one for the Galaxy S2, but Seidio doesn't make one for the T-Mobile version. It's available for all other flavors of the Galaxy S2... just the T-Mobile version has been left out.
I wrote to them asking if they had plans to produce one in the future, but I can't get a straightforward answer from them. They just point me to their existing products for this phone. I was hoping that if there were enough people showing interest in this phone case, they'd consider adding it to their lineup. If you've got a couple of minutes and you'd like to see it happen, please consider contacting them about it.

The Active is a more rugged and bulkier case than the Surface. I've never had an Active case, but I wanted something like the Surface case that I could slip into my pocket or use the holster as needed.
I can't post outside links yet, but if you look at the Samsung Epic 4G Touch category on their site, that phone has both cases available for it. It should give you a good idea of what the Surface case should look like for the T-Mobile version of the phone.

That is really cool, thanks! Getting quotes from the local 3D printers. Can I ask how much you paid for yours to be made?

There are local print shops emerging in a lot of places, maybe one in your area. Just take your design to the shop and have it printed or print it yourself.
That will eliminate shipping costs as well , which can be high depending on how far it has to go.
Is there a link to the printer files for the original stand pictured? Am I completely blind? I'd love to donate to that person and get that stand printed!!
Edit: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1306057 yeah.. I'll remember to look better next time >_<
never mind, wrong thread
Just got my printed stand in the mail from my friend today! Fits like a glove! Balances well, attaches to charge wonderfully. I am beyond stoked right now.
Funny, I just got my Huawei watch today and 3d printing a stand was my first thought as I plan to use a metal band and the stock charger wouldn't be very accommodating for that. Then I came here and saw this thread.
3D printing it in wood right now, will post pictures when it's done.
Well I rushed the post processing (staining and painting) because I'm heading out for the holidays and wanted to at least get something done. Still wet. I'll probably re-do it in the new year and make it completely smooth and more wood like.
Looking good!
Anyone know of any services in the UK that might be able to print this for me?
