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?
With such good video, I'm really keen to get a tripod, or at least a tripod adapter.
Can anyone recommend something? I realize an 'official' tripod is probably not on the cards, but maybe a 'generic' model you can recommend?
Thank you!
http://joby.com/gorillamobile/original/
That's exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much!
Is that confirmed working? I ask because to me the textured back on the SGSII seems like it would be a problem for a suction cup.
Anybody got a tripod solution that is working? I really need an accessory for this, and all the ones I see on Ebay and similar only work to the width of 62mm.
I know I'm pimping it everywhere at the moment, but I'm really impressed with my Breffo SpiderPodium. Would work quite well as a tripod, I'd have thought,
Thanks, to be honest I was looking at it for just that purpose last night... hmmn, could be doable.
Unfortunately the Joby model is not avail in the UK - and buying it from the US would be a 12 quid shipping fee... on something that already cost 25 quids.
So I'm back to square one...
I need this aswell, but still couldn't find a good one. If I want to buy the joby, which one should I buy? I've only seen those for iPhone. Seen the universal, but I don't think we can use it for SGS II.

It is available from various places, John Lewis being one. However, the cheapest I could find is £25 from the below link.

Sadly, no, they have various models, and this is the SLR model. The model for the SGS2 would be the mobile one with the suction cup and the two adhesive pads. While you can get a gorilla pod in the UK (amazon), the mobile kit doesn't seem to be available.
Hi everyone - I finally found that Joby Mobile in the UK. cost was only 11.99 inc delivery. I must say I took a gamble, because the site doesn't look very professional - it's http://www.7dayshop.com.
But they charged my card correctly and I received the tripod within the week, so all is well than ends well
Now the question is 'does it work' and the answer is a resounding 'yes!'. The suction cup takes time to get accustomed to but once you get the hang of it works perfectly. I'm using a rubber phone cover, so I guess this helps. If you don't have any luck with the suction cup, it also comes with adhesive pads (non marking) and finally it also comes with the standard camera attachment so you don't have to carry two tripods.
I must say for 11.99 I'm very pleased!
thanks for sharing your experience.. might get one as well

review:
After my first disapointing buy from ebay i bought this "sexy"
synthetic leather case.
Its weight is 290 grams.
Is a very-very slim case and when it closed, the case is tightly fixed on the tablet.
It has 3 deep grooves for standing and the tablet is very stable in these positions.
The philosophy of this case is "to not hiding nothing from the tablet when you use it."
On the back side there is a gentle opening for the camera.
It smells like leather.
The close clip aplly a good force to keep the case closed.
Every button or socket of the tablet is accesible with closed case
And finally i am happy, and this is the most important
Looks good, does it have a typing angle? What is the name?
also are you able to charge the tab without having the case open? i have one such and i need to have my case open each time i charge which is a pain
This is maybe the case I'm looking for. Can you please share the name and the link for the case. Since you can't post links, replace for examples the dots of the url with spaces or some other characters.
Maybe this one:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320786081962#ht_2592wt_1165
You have to open the case when charging (if I remember right).
I bought this. Premium quality indeed.
EDIT:
cheaper one

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270831391457&ssPageNam e=ADME:L:OC:AU:1123 - just a link that's easier to click then yours
I must say the case looks really nice!
I was wondering about the 3 viewing angles though - do they firmly support the Tab? Would hate to buy it and then find out it slips and falls out when I set it up on one of the angles (I saw that happen before...). Also, is it possible to use this case to prop your Tab up when you put it in your lap (in bed or something similar)? Or is it too flimsy?
And do you feel the extra weight when you carry the tab around? I really love how light it is right now, you don't even notice you have it in your bag (with the standard samsung pouch on) and it's really easy to hold it in one hand and typing with the other if you're walking around the house.

The gaps for the 3 viewing angles are deep enough, and yes you can use it in your lap, my wife do it often.

is still light it is just 290 grams more.
but if you want to use it with one hand, i think that the best way is
to hold it in portrait like a book because the total weight is about 850 grams
Well you got me sir, just ordered one myself. Hope it works as well as you described
Will report back once I have it and test it out a bit ^^
Can anyone confirm if this will fit tmobile galaxy tab 10.1?
Sent from my SGH-T859 using XDA App
Isn't it the same size? If it is, it should fit... can't help you out there though as I have a 7500 one.
The same case, with a new name, posted once again in a new thread. This was $12 on amazon last week.
Really? I sure couldn't find it when I looked (didn't look really hard though)
Doesn't really matter though, if it's a good case I'm more then willing to spend $23 on it. The most basic samsung pouch costs 25€ (about $35) here :S.

You definitely didn't look very hard. Here's my post from last week. Link to amazon where you can get if now for $19.

Aye, you're right. Wouldn't help me though, since amazon tells me that "there is a slight problem with my order" (they can't ship it to my place for some reason).
Still, good to know a cheaper option might exist for some people, thanks!

For people trying to find one from the UK...
I purchased a look a like case from here:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005ECHQ4C
I was struggling to find it as cheap as in the US for example.
The one from the above link, seem to be very good so far. All viewing angles work great, both on a flat surface and on my lap. The typing position is my most used.
'Leather' quality seems good so far. Of course it is going to add some weight, but not really an issue for me. ALL ports/buttons are fully accessible, inc charging when case is closed.
its a great case
Just purchased this direct from korea, it's call the alpina 2 edition jelly wallet case. Cost me approximate USD 35.5 inclusive of shipping.
This case is a combined wallet and jelly/ptu case in one, the case wallet and case is held together with velcro, you can buy this for other phones, the only differences is the size of the wallet and the jelly/ptu case that comes with it, some sellers will also throw in 1-2 screen protectors.
It's available in 7 colours.
Thanks for the recommendation, this casing really looks nice. I would like to purchase it but it's all in Korean and i don't know which option to choose...and from what i see it there isn't a Galaxy Nexus option casing? I only see Galaxy SII and the Note being the latest one

It's a shame that this case is not available anywhere else, i've check on ebay, although the same brand is available, this model is not, even in china i cannot find, so gmarket is the only place to buy, unlike most leather case that is sold in asia that is made in china, this is made in korea.

I don't use IE, but I tried all browsers though. Firefox, Chrome and IE. But whenever I press the pay button it just does nothing. And when I press it again a message pops out stating "Order is processing, please wait". When there is no pop out window or anything.
There is only 1 kind of paypal option available...called Paypal express. I don't see any option to pay using the normal paypal.
Man I think i will just wait a few more days and try again. Thanks for all of the help though, you've been really helpful!
Which choice would I use in the 2nd drop down to get the red/black one?
How does the included jelly case secure to the inside of the wallet.....just velcro? Or is there some sort of more secure holster?

The second drop down labelled 02블랙/레드(5000won), the jelly is held by velcro, and is pretty strong, the only problem with the jelly, is was the headphone socket does not work properly, you need to make the hole bigger, I used my own jelly instead, put in a mercury tpu instead, you can use this wallet with any other phone.
The velcro stuck on the jelly is pretty strong, if you do remove the velcro and use it with a different case, dont use the cheap double sided tape, it wont hold and will comes off if you separate the jelly/wallet for normal use, just use a better quality double sided tape, the carpet type double sided tape, i've used a perfessional type which has a inside nylon lined, but remember to clean off excess tape using alcohol before putting the new tape on for better finished.
the standard jelly is a black one, but i used a lime/green to match the case, as you can see the photo below. When i do find some green velcro it will replace the black, i will also put a second piece to the bottom for a more secure fit, although with just one it will not come loose.
this looks great, maybe I'm gonna buy this one.
Is there a purple one? If so, which option is it?
I haven't seen anyone post this on XDA and I thought this is was different. sorry if already posted

ogdobber said:
I've designed two simple snap on cases for the Moto 360 that I hope will offer some extra protection to the glass face. Right now there is a short and tall version. The short is just 0.3mm over above the glass and the tall is 1.5mm above.
I've been wearing the short one in black since Thursday and have been happy with it from a fit and look standpoint. The matte black next to the stainless ring on the front looks great. And the tall version should be here this week and as long as it looks OK i will likely switch to it as i feel like the short one is mostly appearance and not helping to protect the glass at all. Can you tell I'm phobic about scratching the face of this watch?
I have only ordered the black and polished metallic. The black looks great but the metallic looks cheap and I wouldn't willingly wear it.
I'm open to suggestions for changes to shape and design if people would like some other versions. And while i make a few dollars off each of these, this is not a business and I'm never going to open tooling and make these commercially in volume. But i would be really surprised if there are not a dozen phone case makers turning out similar products in a few months. I'm actually wondering why they are not there already? Maybe Motorola didn't release outside dimensions ahead of release like they do for many phones.

This is definitely interesting, I like it. To bad the shipping is almost as much as the case itself. Any discount codes for the site? I think I might just have to order one.
I ordered the matte black one today. I already have a few scratches on the side of the watch and bezel, but I managed to buff them out for the most part. This will help keep it from getting more scratched up I think. I'll post pics once I get it.

I just ordered one with USPS First Class shipping total out the door $12.99
That's a reasonable price, the problem is i live in Puerto Rico and it shows $19.99 for ship to a total of $27.99, and some sites think we are international shipping. We have in PR USPS, UPS, Fedex that I use always without problem. Sending a small like that would be like 5 to 6 bucks on USPS.
For example: Yesterday i was going to buy a Amazon Fire TV for my boss, and I was unable to buy, even calling amazon support they told me they cant be shipped to Puerto Rico, and the crazy thing its I have a Fire TV since launch that I bought directly from amazon and received via UPS next day and she saw the order on my history he don't even know how i do it. I have prime and I receive the diapers for my toddler second day via UPS. Crazy stuff LOL
I live in NY so I have asked Shapeway if there is any way I can come pick it up. Their website does mention the fact that they are cool with personal pickups.
Shipping 2 to Florida and only 4.99 for USPS First-Class Shipping
