Hey guys, if someone can help me out, that would be greatly appreciated.
I just bought my father the note (sold his GS2 on craigslist) and i got him this case on amazon.
The problem is, my father is used to using a leather holster case that the whole phone slips into, this holster obvioulsy isnt like that, one side goes in, then the other.
He tried getting a holster case by the different stands he usually goes to bu the ones they have, dont fit the phone and the rubber seido case....
has anyone else had this problem and found a leather holster that fits the note and a case?
Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
Was he BlackBerry? We used pocket cases with those. I use a very nice pocket case from amazon.com.

Sorry, i guess i wasnt really specific. more of this kind of case... but it would have to fit hit protection case too...
I doubt you're gonna find a leather case that let's the phone and the rubber case slide in to. But if you boosted in the accessories forum you might get more answers.

Anyone know of any belt pouches or clips that would be able to hold the sgs2 with a case such as this...
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-phone-service/accessory-details/?q_sku=sku5370233#fbid=H-FatcOHLPm
Would have to paint the white though because I don't like it. I would like to use the otterbox but that will probably be too big for any pouches/clips.
Not likely on a case that size. If you go with a slightly thinner one you can get a belt case for any of the 4.5 inch Samsung phones and it should fit.
I've seen case/belt clip combos for or phone, but I'm guessing you're wanting the kickstand.

Thanks for the reply. No I actually don't care about the kickstand. I just wanted a case that looked sturdy and I found it from newegg for pretty cheap. I saw online a review for it and it looked decent. If I could find a dealer decent one with a clip too it would be awesome.

Well check out this one:

I'm sure it could be found for cheaper elsewhere.

Looking for a quality leather belt clip/holster for my 4G LTE and not finding much.
This is what I had for my Evo and 3vo
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-messenger-side-case-with-belt-clip.html
Looking for the same thing for my Evo LTE.
Found this:
http://www.amazon.com/Horizontal-Le...7I/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1338874338&sr=8-15
and not much else.
Do any of you know of something similar that isn't a cheap $12 POS?
I also found this and it's right up my alley.
http://www.spigen.com/htc-evo-4g-lte-crumena-leather-pouch-series.html
but no belt clip.
I got something like that from walmart. It's in their electronics/cell phone accessory section. It's textile, not leather, but has a similar clip on the back. Uses velcro not magnets to hold the front closed (somewhere I read that magnets can be damaging to the digitizers????). For $10, I can't complain. Phone still fits even with the tpu cover on.
If you got no cover, verizon has a nice leather case that fits also, and is leather. $20
Thanks for the reply - I'm looking for something a bit nicer than textiles. I'd really prefer leather.
Any idea what phone the verizon case is for?
I too have been looking for a good leather belt case, but have found none.
Have you found one yet?

Still looking. I have a local contact who works exclusively in leather. I've asked him to see how much it would be to make a case like the HTC one I already have, with the higher quality of the Spigen one.
I'm still looking. Anyone find one that fits yet?
I apparently used the wrong search terms and didn't see this thread until just now after posting this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697882
They day I got my phone in the mail I went to best buy since I knew sprint didn't have a leather case yet. Found this, it's by rocketfish. Best holster I ever had, and I only use holster's with all my phones. I don't like hard cases. The magnets are strong, it feels great, soft inside, the clip is very strong so it won't come off your belt, and the best part is there is a hole in the bottom you can use a finger to push the phone out with so you can get it out of the holster easier. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Rocketf...Id=5070815&st=rocketfish phone case&cp=1&lp=3
I got the one for the evo 3d for my LTE and it fits little snug but it works only thing I could find. I might need to get the last one a bit expensive but it is what I wanted just like my old blackberry pearl case.

I also bought this case. I highly recommend it if you want a horizontal holster
Edit: I decided that I wasn't gonna run this phone naked, so I exchanged the holster for the Platinum Series case and holster. Forgot to check and see if the Platinum case fit in the leather holster. If someone doesn't try it before Sunday, I will, and post results. I really liked the leather holster

That appears to be one of the better leather cases I've seen to date.
I'll check it out tomorrow at my local Best Buy.
Thank you for the link.
Noreve
Hello Everyone,
Hopefully Noreve will come out with one soon. They have one for the One X
Monnie
Definitely headed to Best Buy tomorrow. That's just what I was looking for and not finding. Looks about like the old HTC leather case I had and still used with my 3D.
I'm pretty sure that I'm going to get a custom leather case from easecase. They've been around on ebay for a long time and I've seen reviews going back to the fuze praising their cases.
Did you ever get your easecase case? How is it?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
I'll be looking into easecase as well. They made a nice one for my OG EVO to my specs (I wanted it to fit a cased device).
Not cheap, but they do good stuff.
SPE Leather Cases are the best. Period.
I've been using them since the OG Evo.
I'm waiting for them to release the case for the EVO LTE.

I also ordered myself a crocodile case from PDair.
It just came in, and works great.

I'll upload some pictures later.
I know this is a old thread but might as well ressurect it .
I bought this belt case
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083VHWFE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Hopefully it fits my EVO 4G LTE and my SGS3. Its only $5 after shipping.
Has anybody tried one of these cases for the Note? It is a belt clip/kickstand holster. I was wondering if the belt clip is durable or if it feels really cheap or loose. Also curious if the phone will fit this case with the glas.t installed on the screen.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Hard-...ccessories&hash=item460443efd4#ht_1511wt_1397
many users have brought this. Very good one. Build quality is not very high class but sturdy and maintains the phone well.
Thanks for the info. Trying to get a few accessories ordered ahead of time so when I get the phone I will have them already.
I have this case, here are a few pix,
I also have Moshi iVisor screen protector and no issue with case.
Stand/belt clip sturdy so far.
I have this case, too. Works as advertised. Very decent, especially for the price. I also have the Seidio Active Combo. Seidio is nicer. More of a Cadilac while this one is more of a Ford.
Yes But Minimal Protection

If you drop it top and bottom of the phone is vulnerable.:crying:
I've have this exact case that I've bought from Cellphoneshop.com for the same price(9.00) when I just bought my phone 2 months ago. I"m just waiting for the otterbox comes out!! ATT doesn't know when they will be released!!!
This will just be a case to tide me over until I get the seidio combo with holster.

The Otterbox's, both Defender and Commuter have been out for awhile now. Hit up eBay or the web. I love my Defender! Also, there are threads about these too. Don't buy from AT&T though... Priced too high.

I just bought the Mobo Carrera slim Horizontal case (for the Galaxy Nexus) and I have to say that I'm very happy with it. It fits the LTEvo nice and snug. The phone doesn't budge at all, especially when shaken vigorously. Also magnet doesn't come off when turned upside and shaken hard. The case is nice and slim to complement the slimness of the LTEvo. The interior is outlined in red leather (sort of complements the phone as well). The belt clip is made of metal (but covered in leather) and swivels but the swivel is rigid and doesn't move with little force with is good to me; stays in the position it is set to. Has the opening at the bottom to allow you to push the phone up to easily remove it.
If you are interested in a horizontal case, then this might be the one for you. Just google Mobo Carrera Horizontal case Galaxy Nexus; amazon has it here Mobo Carrera Horizontal Carrying Case. Other site sell it as well.
I bought 2 more slim cases and I'll write about them here as well when they come in this coming week.

Well I didn't keep the other two cases. One was too big for the LTEvo that the phone flopped around in the case. That was a killer for me, so I didn't even bother to give it another thought.
The other one is the one pictured below. It was a case for the Galaxy Nexus so it didn't really fit all that well. Don't get me wrong the case was well designed but the dimensions were just short of fitting the LTEvo. The LTEvo was hanging out of the case. If they make one specifically for the LTEvo, it would be worth investing in it.

If you don't mind my asking, what cases were the ones that were too big? Also do you think they'd fit the Evo with a silicone or TPU case on? Thanks!
Ditto to the above I like a gorm fitting holster but I never go out without a case. For work I use the Otterbox commuter with the seido active holster but for regular use, I use a thin TPU case. I have yet to find a holster that is thin and long enough to fit the phone with a TPU case.
Any suggestions?

The seidio surface holster fits the tpu covered evo like a glove. This is what i use.

I bought my dad a side clip holster from siedioonline and he was ecstatic with it.
Even I loved it, and I really dislike holsters in general.
I have the Encased case with clip, it's okay. Anyone have any other recommendations for a case/clip combo? Thinner is better, and preferably a top clip release,not center (the way I wear it).
Thanks
Best or one of the best is OtterBox Defender Pro. I use it and love it! It's certainly not thin but it's about the best protection you can buy. I accidentally knocked phone off kitchen table onto a concrete floor first day I had it. The case didn't even get scratched. So obviously the phone didn't either.
Supcase UB pro just as good as otterbox defender,way cheaper.
I used to get the Seido (Best buy used to sell them rebranded with their Platinum name) but have given up since I have so many cases that just don't fit the holder.
I use a holster instead which will securely hold any phone/case combo including no case!
I've been using this one for the past two years with no problem whatsoever.

It's cheap and just works. It can clip on a belt or if you want it secure you can thread your belt through it and it's going nowhere. I climb towers and the last thing I need is to have it fall 100s of feet. No case is going to prevent it from being trashed if that happens!

I ordered the encased holster and otter box commuter case, just got the holster and will have the case Friday. I let you know how it is. Currently using the otter box defender, I have the holster with the middle clip. Always used the seidio cases but I guess they're gone.
