Has anyone used this case and holster combo?
edit: i cant post links.., im new i guess.search ebay for "new shell belt clip case for sprint samsung nexus s 4g"
i have an active x case/holster combo but i hate the case. it's to slipery,buttons are to easy to press on the sides etc. its also tough to load and unload the phone one handed. im looking at this case combo in the above link but i'd really like to hear from anyone who's used it and what you think??also the 3g and 4 g frames are nearly identical, correct?
That actually looks pretty legit, to be honest
I have a watch strap buddy that is making a prototype for me that will be sort of like this one.

I got mine from the Sprint website when I ordered my phone. Its good, doesn't add too much bulk and I've loaded/unloaded multiple times with ease using one hand. It doesn't have a soft touch rubbery back but I've never had a problem holding but as for drop protection Its not very good. I've dropped it 2 or three times from about 3 feet up and it came off each time, scratching up my phone in the process. And it cut outs for the buttons so that's not a problem

Thanks for the help guys!! i actually came up with a very simple solution to fix my active x case.my main issue is that the buttons are way to easy to press in on the sides, so gripping it tightly constantly turns it on/off and messes with the volume. or anytime i loaded/unloaded it from holster
on the inside of the silicone layer where buttons are, are fairly thick strips which sit tightly against the phone buttons causing the problem.i used a razor to slice these tabs off and the difference is drastic. now i love the active x case.., sure it's not as grippy as the case mate, but its a damn tough case with a rock solid holster!

I bought the purple case for my wife. Here are a few pics for those interested in a few more pictures of the case. I also have a few comparison shots with an EVO Shift that doesn't have a case as well so you can see how much thickness it adds. I like the case. It feels the same as the back of the Shift for the most part. Both the Shifts in the pictures also had the Seidio screen protectors installed which fit and feel great and have no adhesive. At $30 the case is a little spendy but it fits perfectly and doesn't feel like the top will pop off or anything. Was a good thing to spend some left over Christmas money on Sorry about the high ISO of the shots LOL, it is dark outside and I didn't want to use a flash and apparently the lighting wasn't the best.

5mm doesn't sound like much on paper. But side by side, wow it sure does look quite a bit thicker.

That is exactly what I was thinking. Though I have fat hands and the case I got made it a little easier to hold on too.
Nice case looks better then my shield combo from sprint
I just got my case today, and the front plate seems to want to fall off when I use the slide. Maybe I need to break in the case a bit...but it seems like it just barely fits.
has any one found a good leather or hip case that will fit the phone in the shell

In my first update I detailed the same issue: Seidio Innocase Surface Review (quick/dirty)
Basically you're going to have to carefully pry on your case to make a gap to fit the plastic in.

I have the HTC leather hip case from Best Buy from a previous phone. The Shift+Innocase fits nicely inside.
I just had to buy another HD2 last night(I dropped my original
It came with a pink hard rubbery case.
Where can I find one that is black? It can't be more then 3 Bucks.
I looked on eGay, but they all look the same. All of them say silicone and the ones that say hard rubber look different.
Just can't find the damn thing.
Here is a pic. I don't want another rubbery jelly POS like OEM one.

Here's some:
1) Hard Case PS. It's terrible - broke after one week. (but I kept putting it on and off to be able to fit it into my dock.)
2) Rubbery Hard Case Don't remember what the oem case was like.
It doesn't really look like either one of those.
Dont they do 'bumpers' for these?
I was not able to find a good black case for my HD2 as well, will try this one

Our Chineese friends have probably taken care of us! Look on eGay (as you called it very correctly). Some good chineese man might have the solution to your quest XD
I have black perforated hard case. Cheap off flEabay, nice to hold and did survive a 2 foot drop onto tiled floor.
Otherwise I have full aluminum case (can get black) for mountain bike but a bit ott for the office ;-)

has anyone tried this case there is no reviews on amazon for it so i figured id ask here decent price looked pretty sick anyone has experience from these phone cases almost got one for me evo a while back but never got it
Did you ever order the case? I was also looking into getting one but I like the way this one looks. It looks like an actual fishbone.
no i didn't cause no one freaking responded 200+ view not one response ended up getting a cruzerlite... off amazon and its amazing feels very light but not cheap but the price is great!!! i never really like tpu cases but this one definently got my business thinking about buy a second case different color..
I did see on another forum that someone bought one and he stated that the corners would slip out and he didn't recommend it. But it just looks so cool. I have had an Otterbox Commuter Series on my Sammy Charge and I love it but I thought I would try something different. I will look into the cruzerlite, thanks for the suggestion.
yeah the fishbone was poorly rated when i was looking at it too and the phone is bulky enough as it is and this case doesn't add much bulk at all too it..
I drop my phone alot. And my 3 year old doesn't help matters either, chucking it all over the place so I don't mind the added bulk of the Otterbox Commuter.
I just ordered one from Amazon so I will let you guys know how it is once I get it but I had one a while back for my Fascinate and loved it actually so I'll see how this does with my Bionic.
Had one on a fascinate. It provides basic protection, but not nearly to the level of an otterbox or aegis. Think of it as one step above a silicone case. I had no problems with the corners sliding off.

You guys should check this **** out : http://www.amazon.com/Trident-AG-BIO-RD-Series-Motorola-Bionic/dp/B0060EKDWK/ref=pd_cp_cps_2
I am a big fan of my CaseMate Tough case for Bionic. It is a 2 layer case with soft-silicone inside and hard plastic removable outside layer. It's nice since I can dock in the car and moto desk dock with the soft case and pop on the hard outer case when I am on the go. Last week I think Amazon had the Tough for around $7 w/ free shipping. The fishbone looks like it would be a pain to remove the outer layer, if anyone can comment I'd like to know how easy it is to remove/replace the hard layer.

I purchased this case for £6.95 form AMazon yesterday and it came today. I wanted a thin case that offers as much protection as it could, and I believe this is that case. THis case is listed as $35 on thier website, I just wanted to say I dont think that it is worth that much.
The case has a hard, plastic structure with a layer of Brushed Aluminum on the back. This gives it a cool touch and a very nice texture. All cutouts are very well aligned and I have had no issues with audio or pressing the volume or power buttons. The pogo pins are also exposed which is nice as this is the only case I know where they have allowed them to be open. Overall the case is very good very slim and offers quite a lot of protection.
THe negatives come in the way of the design though. The huge poetic logo on the back of the case (see images) may put some people off as well as the bottom and top silver plastic being exposed on the device. Also the case is not that grippy to hold. Meaning it is very slippy to hold and may fall out of your hand.
Great case at a great price.

Here's my video:
Great review man... does it provide any protection to the front? What I mean is if you put the nexus face down does the glass touch the surface at all?
Thanks for putting up the review. That has got to be one ugly case though. I want my branding to be mostly invisible. That one screams LOOK AT ME!!!!! :silly:
Just recently got my nexus and I've been looking for a new case. I just recently dropped my nexus on concrete and the top right corner the I guess bezel or the silver gray material came off. Am wonder ok by if this case would provide decent protection against such a fall

Here's a bit of a left-field suggestion among all the rubber backs and bumper cases: why not get a sleeve case instead?

I found this seller on etsy a while ago. They make pouches for any number of devices using jeans fabric on the outside and coloured cotton on the inside. What I like about them: they are very minimalist and low-key. Perfect for protecting your G4 while traveling or when you want to toss it into a bag but you're worried it might get pushed around or scratched by sharp objects such as your house keys.
In my opinion a perfect solution for those looking to protect the phone when it's not in use but who don't want to mess up the design by putting a rubber or bumper case around it. Of course, it won't help you if it slips out of your hand and hits the concrete while you're using it.. those are the trade-offs.
I have a similar pouch for my Nexus 7 (2nd gen) and it's been serving me well for almost 2 years now. Highly recommended.
I ordered one for my G4 yesterday (the phone arrived two days ago). I'll post an update once I receive the sleeve case.

It's pretty simple actually...
1) a sleeve doesn't protect against drops
2) you can't use your phone without taking it out of the sleeve.

I made similar points in my initial post —
It won't be of much use to you if you feel you need protection at all times.
I intend to keep it in the sleeve when not in use and while traveling. I'm going to see if that works for me as well as I hope it does — it's been a great combination with the Nexus 7.

See the pictures I posted above - it's like a jeans pocket that you slide the phone into. Mine has an extra pocket in the front that can carry a credit card or something similar. Just slide your phone in and it's protected from falls or during travel.
I prefer to use my phone 'naked' and I use instant messaging much more than actual phone calls, so this arrangement works very well for me. Hope this helps.
