Otterbox Commuter in Dell car dock

I have the OEM car-dock from Dell and it holds my Streak dressed in its Otterbox commuter case very well. I didn't like the Dell Goose-Neck though, as there is a lot of bounce to it. I had an old Arkon mount and was able to attach the Streak holder to the mount via the slot-key so it works great now!

any pics ??

Not yet, just got it yesterday, and haven't had a chance yet. Maybe this weekend.

I am about to order a mount made for Streak with Otterbox Commuter case on for $40 shipped. I will wait to hear back from you with pics. Thanks

are you talking about the one on ebay i think its no slip or somthin if not check it out it looks nice i blve ima get one myself!

The Dell car mount can be "stretched" to use with a case on the phone but it is tight. This gallery shows some pics of the Streak with just a TPU case on fitted into the mount. For me the fit was too tight. YMMV.

With my Otterbox Defender, I use SlipGrip Car Holder. Tough and easy to fit in.... I don't know if it works with Commuter though...

I bought a Ram-mount handlebar mount for my harley
I took the existing dell windshield mount and whacked off the clip on the back of the streak mount (pliers and a file)
Then took the included mount connector from the Ram-Mount and gorilla glued it in the place of clip I whacked off.

It is a rock solid beast, none of that bouncing around that the windshield gooseneck did. BTW, the suction cup finally failed which is what precipitated this modification.
I'm buying a commuter case today to see if it fits in the dell mount. It does fit
(yes, I did build USB ports into the speedo console)

Ok, I used a friend's phone here at the office since folks seemed anxious for pix...
Streak1 by Barry (NJ), on Flickr
Streak2 by Barry (NJ), on Flickr
Streak3 by Barry (NJ), on Flickr

hold up how is all that silver that is sick or is that the flash on the cam changing the color

Pretty sure is't just the way the flash effects the picture. The Commuter is plastic and rubber. The font is covered by a matte rubber, and the back and sides are covered by hard plastic.

oh yea i have the commuter on my streak i just thought i was missin out on a silver one haha!

Jogging Belt for galaxy note 2

Anyone have suggestions on belts that may fit this beast of a phone? I like the "go belt" but not sure if it fits the note 2.
http://www.hippierunner.com/index.php/product/view/1/1
I also found the SPIBelt but not sure if that fits it either.
http://www.spibelt.com/products/spibelt/the-original-spibelt
I know it is a bit big to go jogging w/ I just can't be with out it! I don't want to go full fanny pack either.

I went to my local running store to try them. They don't fit. You can try the Airflow Lite or the Airflow Endurance by Amphipod.

I keep mine either in my jog pants pocket or in the "kangaroo pouch" of my sweatshirt without any problem. Haven't had it yet in the summer. It was 24degrees F here today.

I've been using my running jacket zipper pockets. Only problem is a lot of my jackets zipper pockets broke or don't fit well so the airflow lite will be a great.
Going to go to my local running store tomorrow and picking up the airflow lite. Thanks for the recommendation!

The Spibelt looks interesting. Will it fit the phone with case on it and does it feel comfortable for looking runs? I'm training for a marathon and still looking for something to hold my phone.

The Spi belt is stretch fit. It shouldn't have any problem with cases as long as it is not something too bulky like a Ottobox Defender case.
I don't feel it while running so yeah it's pretty comfortable for me.
Remember you need to specify the large version of the belt.

Great, and being invented my home town is cool too.

Quick update-
I just came from a Marathon expo in Houston and found the Nathan 5k running pak.
It fits the Note 2 well with my Ballistic case.
Here's a link for it with some pretty good reviews:

iFitness running belt
The iFitness running belt works pretty well for me. I have one that's just a pouch and another that also holds gels around the waistband. It's a neoprene holder so it stretches to accommodate.

Think i'm going to go with the Large SPIBelt! Thanks for posting the pics Whatsit!
*UPDATE* - Note, the pocket on this belt is NOT sweat proof at all. I've been putting my n2 in a ziplock bag and wrapping it in paper towels to help keep the moisture away. I may need to try the waterproof version JoinMA mentioned. Regardless, this is much better than using the armband.

Is there a car mount that works with the otterbox commuter case?

I had a Note, and my Note II is in the mail! I never had a case for my Note, but it did get pretty banged up, so I figure I'll sacrifice the ultra-slimness and get the Otterbox Commuter for the Note II.
I had great success with ProClip USA Car Mounts for the Note, but it wouldn't have worked if I had a case on the phone.
Is there a car mount that will work even with a case?
Thanks!
Edit: Here's what I have found. Does anyone have any experience with these?

Hi all, just got myself this off eBay, and it works really well, the only caveat is that you need a flatish area of dashboard for the feet to provide stability, in my car a Kia Rio I had 3 possible positions and eventually went with the one that gave best stability with viewing angle. The Note 2 with commuter case fits width wise no problem at all, as for depth its ok, had this been a Defender case it would probably not have enough depth but for the commuter its fine, for £5 its a no brainer

If you are willing to stick a small plastic tab at the back of the case, this one http://www.amazon.com/IQ-Smart-Solu...1359816768&sr=8-1&keywords=iq+smart+solutions works really well.
Pros:
The price is unbeatable. The same mount is selling in Canada for about $30 which IMO is worth it when comapre with other car mounts.
One hand operation. This is critical because from time to time, you may want to pass the phone to someone to adjust the GPS setting.
Very compact, excellent for taking it with you on trips
Very sturdy and well built.
Flexible, landscape or portrait, dash mount, windshield mount or even use it on the plane/desktop as a phone holder for video viewing. Optional suction cup for windshield mount is provided, you can switch between windshield or dash mount easily.
No worry of long term effect on the phone, especially the battery by magnetic mount
Three mounting tabs provided for three phones. I stick one of the tabs to a universal holder to make it universal for other family members.
The dash mount anchor is affixed onto the dash permanently with 3M adhesive, no worry of suction cup failure.
Cons:
You have to stick a black 3/4" square, 3 mm thick plastic tab at the back of the phone.
When you sell your car, you might have a hard time removing the dash mount anchor.
One more advice, if you want to go for it, buy 2 or 3 of them, save the mounting tabs for your future phones, you will not regret it.

Nice price. How is vibration on dash? ( comparing video shot with iottie and ibolt atm. ) Contemplating modding an extra defender holster similar to slip grip and getting a rammount setup, but this is more appealing, as I could easily use said holster for a gameklip type setup.

The mount is rock solid.

you could try the Clingo. They have a couple options. I personally haven't used it, but I have the Clingo Neklit with the GameKlip. Works pretty well, and I assumed it would be solid in the car situation. Here's one of the commercials on YouTube
I personally use the iOttie, but I just use a cheap Cruzerlite TPU case with my GN2.

I also use the iottie, the suction cup is awesome on texture dash and that puppy is not going any where.
I bought the clingo, I would not recommend it for me it was was a waste of $$$$$....it would hold the N2 for a while then it would fall off I have the Otter Commuter case.....if I did what the video showed holding it outside the window the N2 would of fallen to the street.

Note II Case with Wallet

I'm looking to get a Note II case that can double as wallet. The one I picked up at Verizon when I got the phone is a bit bulky, and I'm considering getting a new one Does anyone have one they like?

I can't answer your question; but the reason why might interest you.
I couldn't dream of using a case which leaves the corners exposed but I've only found one wallet case with full corner protection, but from the pictures it would be too bulky (the leather protrudes from the side further that the edge covering)
I'll link later if I remember but it's on play.com type note 2 wallet.
If you find a skin but full protection wallet case please pm me!

There are plenty over at www.gmarket.kr it seems like that the koreans like wallet case, and they do have the largest range.
I tend to like the forest green brand you can find them at gmarket or ebay.

I've got this sinjimoru sinji pouch from amazon which can attatch to the back of any case or phone basically. Can fit like 4 cards and some cash.. I even got an extra battery and two cards in it once. It was around $10, attaches with a sticky type back, doesn't stretch and I absolutely love it. Have it on the back of my otterbox.

Interesting - a lot of the cases on the website look interesting, definitely considering one of the ones that double as a stand. I see your point - just figured that if I have a big phone, I could cut down on the amount of things I have to carry around. The one I have has worked ok so far, but tends to bulge in the middle. Don't know if there are any that solve that problem though.
If anyone is wondering, play.com is buy.com in the US; looks like it has a smaller selection though.

It's only $12, it's good quality, not real leather of course.
Easily fits two drivers licenses, two credit cards, and a few Disney passes.
Not really a wallet to hold cash, though you could put a few bills folded into it.
It also folds on the back to prop up like a stand.
The phone snaps into a plastic case on the inside, seems to provide meager protection. Corners aren't really protected well.
It also uses a button clasp instead of a magnet, which is good.

Hsini Patrol/Duty Vertical pouch

Way way back I commented that I was looking for some way to carry my phone on my duty belt. It's a complete nightmare to find a good looking and secure way to carry a phone the size of the GN2 on a 2-2.5 inch belt (Duty). If you're in law enforcement or Corrections, typically you're stuck with an Otterbox that triples the size of your phone and still doesn't slide over the width of a duty belt.
Well I finally found it. The HSINI vertical pouch (Amazon link <-- that a way).
Just to start, of course it comes with cheap packaging probably from China. Fine with me because I like China, so there!
Included in the package are a super cheap slim hard case for the phone, a stylus that won't be used, and a carbine ring that also won't be used. Maybe my kid will use it to decorate a bookbag or something. The only keeper for me is the pouch itself.

The pouch itself, despite the ridiculously long name on Amazon, uses velcro to secure the lid, and a nylon canvass hoop which you can slide over a belt or Duty belt in my case. Fits perfectly over my 2.5 inch belt. No wiggle room at all.
I wouldn't really call it 'heavy duty' but I would call it pretty medium duty.
My phone is in a UAG case and still fits just fine, so I imagine most cases would still allow your phone to fit inside the HSINI.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Very similar to the one I reviewed BUT this one has a very important point of a wide belt loop!!! Mine can probably fit a belt no wider than 1 3/4". And it also looks clean without any metal label, plus has heavy duty cloth material versus heavy duty nylon (in my review). Looks cool on that belt!

Now I just need to move my OC spray to a more natural position on my belt

Cool I been looking for something on my belt also. Thanks

Considered that too. But I'd have to learn how to mold it
I've grappled a couple of knuckleheads already and it's turned out fine. Doesn't get in the way of a short foot chase. Guess I'll see how well the holster holds up to going over fences sooner or later.

I can't believe you guys carry your phones on you. Mine stays in the patrol car. No worse feeling in the world like clearing a residence and some jackass behind you getting a call from honey wanting a bag of chips or wanting to tell what cute new thing the family cat did. I figure if I'm out of my patrol car, I'm most likely dealing with someone who deserves or has earned my undivided attention.
However, I have seen no other phone in the world that takes such nice crime scene pics! And sending them directly to the database from the scene is hella nicer than burning them to disk!
Plus, leaving it in the car prevents some dirtbag having the opportunity to crush it, keeps me from having to deal with the whole restitution thing to get my deductible reimbursed, and gives me one less reason to whoop dat ass...

Great reason to keep the phone on vibrate. Won't distract anyone in the field.
I have a Roadster 2 bluetooth speaker in my car. The thing is awesome in that it automatically connects to the phone every time I get in the unit. Even announces that it's connecting.
For me my phone is a pretty useful tool in identifying schedule drugs on the spot and referencing Spanish words beyond my vocabulary. I also use it to stealth record folks that I think might be lawsuit crazy.

In your searching around for this, you didn't happen to come across something pretty much identical but with a clip option did you? I realize you guys need the belt loop, but for my purposes I often prefer a clip. The holster looks perfect other than that.

Find a clip that will fit over a duty belt is a bigger challenge since there's often the inner liner belt to contend with.
Take a gander over on amazon. I haven't found anything that quite fit that bill.
