Does anyone know of a bumper case that will work with the s-view cover?
I like the s-view cover and want some protection for the exposed edges of the phone.
I'm debating on just buying a TPU Case and cutting out the back to create a bumper, but wonder if it will even stay on the phone

Cutting out the TPU Case and retrofitting it with the S-View Cover is the only real solution. I've seen discussions on this back in the good old Note 2 days.

Is there some sort of case that I can use to protect the back of the phone that works with the flip cover? I can almost get a gel case on the back, but without making some modifications with a craft knife (I am useless at that sort of thing), I can't fold the cover back with it attached.
There must be some solution out here that allows me to use the flip cover with protection on the back?
Thanks for any advice.
I would like to know this too. Any info would be much appreciated.

Case Combo that Works
I use both a Flip Case and a Hybrid Case together giving me front cover, all around protection and kickstand. I attached the flip case. I then cut a small section from the left side of the hybrid case to allow the cover on the flip to open freely and attached it to the GN2 with the flip cover. Here are the ebay products I used:

Its just the cutting part I wanted to avoid. Im quite surprised samsung didnt develop a back case to compliment the flip cover.
Looks like im gonna have to try and cut a section out of my gel case then, or find someone who has some cutting skills.

The flip cover replaces the original back cover.

Why don't you get a cover that had a flip built in. They seem to cost the same.

Isn't the entire back the replaced cover? Unless you want to protect the camera more...

No. I want to protect the back from getting scratched up and from knocks and bumps.

Hmm,a badly cut edge could scratch the metal part.which is not replaceable. Since you're thinking of buying a case anyway, why not spend the extra 5 dollars and go for one's with built in flip cover. They look the same the oems

Hi
Some pictures of my new Case Mate Tough modded with the Samsung flip cover.
The Case Mate Tough is very tight on the GN2 and it wasn't so easy to make because of the thickness of the flip battery cover.
I hope to have now all the avantages of the Tough (good impact protection, easy to hold and secure grip in a slim case) combined with the flip cover.

Cool.. where did you get one?

Looks like a good mod. What other things did you have to do with the tough case to fit with the larger battery cover of the flip case?
Also, does the flip cover sit flush all around with the raised lip of the tough case (when closed)? Can you post a pic of the power-button side to show it? Thanks.

@ coiledwire
To fit the case with the larger battery cover, I had to cut out the inner part of the tough case as on the joined picture.
The polycarbonate hard shell is very strong and I cut it with a dremel.
The flip cover sits flush all around with the raised lip of the tough case as you can see.
Regards
Denis
Instead of my moddding a case, does anyone happened to sell case that could be used with the flip cover?

I think this is what you are looking for. It's a genuine leather (not pleather) case.

This is the holster I use, it works great and looks great too.

At that price it is hard to believe it is real leather, but it says it is leather and seems like leather to me and I refuse to cut it just to see. It has a clip that will fit a wide belt and also has 2 loops that you can slide your belt through for more security. Also it fits the Note 2 with either the RND TPU Protective Case or the elago G6 Slim Fit Case on the phone.

I wish I could see a video or maybe some screen shots with how much wiggle room there is with a case on inside the holster.

Whatever you do stay away from any cases with magnetic clips or a magnetic anything on the case. I got one with a magnet kickstand and it screwed up alot with the spen and screen. It interferes With the magnetic fields that the phone needs to operate properly. I wasted like forty bucks on that case. Straight to the garbage.
You'd be surprised how many cases employ a Magnat somewhere. You arroyos think the manufacturer s would know about the whole magnet plus electronics thing never works out well. Dummies

There is not really any wiggle room from end to end as the edges of the phone in the tpu case touch the ends of the case but it is not really tight and the lid of the case opens enough to get an easy grip on the phone for removal. The phone in the case is 153 x 83 x 11mm. So if you measure your Note 2 in your case and it is the about same size or maybe 2mm larger then you'll know it will fit.

Ok I bought an oem flip case (the kind you replace the battery door and it protects the screen). Does anyone know of a case or bumper guard to protect it that would be compatible with it? I bought the flip case because my battery door broke. So id like to prevent buying just a battery door then another case on top of it.

Also I know that you can put a flip cover and a UAG on. The issue is that you cannot open the flip case all of the way unless you cut part of the case. Also, if you don't cut the case, I hear that the volume buttons become very difficult to press.
I think really any case that is made from a soft, flixible material on the sides would probably fit the phone and the flip case, since it only really adds the little part on the left side as far as extra bulk goes.
Hey guys, has anyone found a plastic or glass protector for the back of the Note 5? I've had no luck at all! I've got a clear case coming in the mail to cover the phone and I already have a plastic protector that covers the front, but I'd rather not use a case at all.
I plan on using a clear plastic/glass protector on the front and back of the phone and then get the Rhino Shield Crash Guard bumper for the edges. As far as I know the Rhino Shield isn't out yet. Would be awesome to find a clear thin plastic bumper case too!

I am with you on this one, I found just one protector for the back: "Xtremeguard" but the review for it are terrible,
other than that I found nothing, not even a cheap one from ebay, that's the only reason I am second guessing buying
the Rhino Shield.

I have this. Ringke fusion case comes with front and back. Back is not edge to edge but it does cover across the flat part in back and is cut out for the camera and flash. Suppose to cut out the "rainbow" effect u get from some of the clear back cases. Its definately a case to check out if u are one of us guys who like to have a couple different cases. Its prob my favorite one out of the 3 i have. It was definately my favorite s6 case
