Hi, i was searching on-line because i wanted to add a kickstand to my one x without adding too much bulk. Unfortunately all of the cases that incorporate kickstands are quite thick. However i found this:

Its an interesting add on that uses 3M double sided tape to attach to the phone and provides both portrait and landscape functionality. but here`s the catch, the kickstand attaches to the bottom of the back of the phone. unfortunately this is where the speaker is located on the one x. I was wondering were it could be mounted since I already purchased one. if anyone else is interested there is a link above. Thanks

Has anyone experiences with bags for flipout. i dont have one because of the formfactor...but i would like to have a cheap solution. maybe a bag which belongs to another mobile and works for the flipout?
or a camerabag...
thanks for help
i have a solution. a sock by bagmovil. fits good and cheap.
I found a case on Amazon UK for around £3.50 if that's any help. Can't remember the name but I just searched for "Flipout" and had a browse through the seemingly endless array of incompatible tat they have. The cases are pretty cool, range of colours, pretty hardy, dirt cheap. Mine's breaking already but it's kissed the kitchen floor a good few times now.
my last bag by bagmovil wasn´t a good solution...bad quality! now i have a bag mady by my own...a piece of leather and some wool...very save for my flipout
For anyone still reading, I'm considering the PDAir belt pouch range.
They have what appears to be a basic slip-on case, a standard belt holster type with magnetic closure top strap, and another belt one where the front cover flaps over allowing you to open the Flipout, although the downside is the clear plastic top part covering the keyboard.
Search for "PDAir Flipout" on Amazon.
On ebay has several covers (case)

Despite my searching, I can't find a really high quality leather flip case. I'm looking for one which adds minimal bulk and the "hinge" of the screen cover is at the bottom of the phone.
I'm not looking for something off eBay because I've had too many bad experiences with products which look great in the pictures but are horrible in practice.
I'd easily get one from VajaCases if they made one for the Atrix but they do not.
I found a few here and there that retailed around $30. I'd give you the link but I have no idea where I found it, but most (if not all) of the cases I found had the hinge on the top.
I don't understand the fascination of flip cases with the hinge at the top, it blocks the camera and isn't held open by gravity. Is it because you can use it as a make shift stand or something?

I agree, I much prefer flip from the bottom rather than flip from the top.
Fortte cases make anything you like?
Hi, as the title suggests I have both. Now I don't really know which one to keep. The pouch feels like it has better protect5ion if it drops and the swen edges may offer some bounce if you know what I mean. However the flip case feels better but feels kind of bare :-\ . It seems to offer no protection at all. Which one of these have you gone for or would go for if you had the option.
Hi,
i preferred to choose the flip for several reasons.
- Makes me feel the Gnote is a real note book.
- Just easier to use because you do not need to pull it out of the pouch to see the time of the day or check mail. Just more handy.
- If i need protection i'll buy or make a pouch while keeping the flip cover.
Anyway, it's more a personal choice, choose what's more handy for you.
I have the flip cover, and stick it in a small pouch for my bag (or map pocket of my jacket if I'm out and about) .
the pouch I have opens length ways so the note slides out really easily.
is flip cover really convenient?
Hi,
I wonder if flip cover is really convenient..........
Can u all type or take a snap or capture video comfortably?
I have both too, and only use the pouch for when i'm only going out briefly, and can't be bothered ripping the back panel from the Note and installing the flip case. (Can't leave the case on or it won't fit in it's dock)
I can see it being useful as extra protection too though, if I ever need to put it in a bag, while cycling for example.
I have kept the flip case now. I will begetting the carbon fiber skin as well (I had it on my HD2 as well) and will apply it to the flip case. I find it easier to hold now, i mostly hold it with one hand like in reading a book. As the post above says, I will keep the pouch for when I put it in a bag or need that extra protection. The flip case fits inside the pouch.
thanks for all
but can any one make some photos please??
& from where you bought it??
with big thanks for all of u again
Following the saying that one can not be too careful, is it possible to have the flipcover on and put the Note with the flipcover in the original pouch. :cyclops:
These kind of threads amuse me.
Just use the damn pouches or covers you have and decide for yourself what you like most.

Here's a little something interesting for you guys. I'm looking for a very specific type of holster and I am in need of your mass searching skills to come up with one that meets my requirements. The first person to find one recieves $5. However, it must match EVERY requirement that I will list below. If even one thing is off it does not count but I would like to see it anyways. If nothing is found that meets every requirement, I will award the $5 to the best one I see fit here.
Here are the list of requirements:
All leather (preferably genuine but will accept cheap if it's the only option out there)
Must be a minimum of a horizontal-only holster *No Vertical-only*
(Even better if it has a swivel belt clip but it has to be able to fit horzontally on the belt)
Must have a cut out for BOTH the headphone jack AND the micro-USB port *No Exceptions*
Must fit extended battery with extended back cover
Preferably black leather but may consider other colors
Phone must not be attached to the holster
(Must be meant to easily slide in and out and not made to use in the holster)
Phone must be held in from all sides (no unprotected openings on one side)
If you can find this match I think you well deserve the $5. Best of luck to everyone. Find me something nice.
I can't say for sure about extended... but extended isn't that much bigger, and considering leather stretches more than plastic... it would probably fit

I actually saw this just before and there's a few things I can't tell about this case. Is the phone attached to the case to use it (or is it meant to slide out easily)? Does the headphone cable slide out with the phone or do I have to disconnect it everytime I slide the phone out and then reconnect it again while it's in my hand?
The one almost appears to be more of a case with a belt clip rather than a slideable holster. I will consider it but let's see what others can find. Oh and direct links to cases only, no search result lists.

4th pic shows the accessible earphone and ability to remove from pouch without disconnecting earphone... as for charging, cut out a small slot?
I've looked at more holsters than I ever thought I would.. it seems in all of them you would have to cut some sort of slot to get all your features.

First one was direct. Second one wasn't really (there's a bunch of cases on there not just that same case in other colors).
Something like this is almost perfect: Link
I just wish the front didn't flip out and it didn't have that clear screen protector built-in.

I actually also saw this one. This is also almost perfect I just wish it had the charging slot already there (I don't want to do any modifications, hence why this is not such an easy find).
Something like the mix of this one (no flip front) and the one in my previous post (cut outs for headphones and charger + rotating belt clip) would pretty much be exactly what I need.

As for this... you can (ghetto, I know) glue the flip out part to the leather border, then cut the straps on the right side (not the securing magnetic strap but the ones connecting the frame to the back) this way you have a pocket and can remove the phone from the side.
Not ideal - but yep, definitely can't find the ideal one
Edit for reply about no mods: Sorry buddy, did my best.. hopefully someone else can weigh in

No problem. Thanks for helping either way. I will consider these since this is actually the best I could find as well but let's see if anyone else can dig up something interesting. Thanks again for your effort.

i like noreve cases, been using them since i had a nokia 6630, and have one on order for the galaxy nexus as well
i wouldnt recommend going with the top 2 class of leathers, since they do take some effort to maintain them, although they do look nice

Hmm, very interesting case but boy what a price. I can't tell if this is a case or a holster though. It looks like it's just a case with a belt clip. Also although they mention access to the charging port but I don't happen to see that on those photos. Unfortanatly there are quite a number of things limiting this for me but thank you for showing this anyways. I appreciate your effort.
Bumping this
Bumping for some newcomers
Have you tried easecase in ebay, have a few different styles to choose from, and can customize style, color, clip type etc
Good quality, I have used them on my last 3 phones
http://stores.ebay.com.au/EASECASE?_trksid=p4340.l2563
Think they are closed for chinese new year at the moment, but check them out, might be what your looking for
Hope that helps

I'm not after your reward, so you can keep it, i'm only here to help in all ways.
I will be going to shenzhen china in about a weeks time, they have plenty of these, i'll have a look for you, but as mention, finding one that has the openning for USB and headphone socket at it's right place isn't easy, but find a leather holster that hangs horizontal that fit's the gnex isn't hard, but no promises.
As for cost, sholdn't cost more than USD 10 not including shipping.

Final Bump
Hi Guys. Do any of you know of a case/s that allow you to place your Note in a Vertical OR Horizontal position Thank-You. Louie
I saw those cases on ebay. Just look for it with this key words: case stand
If you want that feature here's what you need to lookout for:
A kickstand placed at the furthest end (either top or bottom) and occupying the largest space possible (ie left to right).
That way when you pop it open, it acts like a normal kickstand in landscape mode.
But the side of the kickstand is placed in a position to touch the ground/surface and doesn't bend...causing it to keep the device open on portrait mode also.
I need a kickstand too
I know there are many plastic cover based kick stand available on Ebay, but I was hoping to have backdoor attached kickstand released in market. I use 4 batteries a day, so if I have to keep removing the plastic and then the back door again and again will be a hassle. Any eBay sellers reading my feedback here from China??? Please make one!
Magnet issue?
Hi guys. O.P. here. Thank-You for the responses. I ordered and already received the Zenus Masstige Color Edge Diary Series case which has a kickstand. Not sure if it has the magnet issue. It sure is a nice looking case. Louie
