Is this possible? im looking to see if i can cutout a gel case to fit the extended battery. I have 2 holsters... one fitted for a regular hard case... and another one for a naked pre. If cutting out a gel skin can fit inside the holster with the hard case... then i will return the naked holster... if not vice versa.
Any one experimented with this? i love the holster but i need some side and corner protection!

Hey,
Does anyone know of a case that is big enough to comfortably hold a Vibrant in a t-mobile gel skin. The phone is so light and fragile w/o the gel skin, but I would really like to have a holster to carry it on my belt. Anyone know of a case thats might work for that purpose?
Thanks!
I actually have the T-mobile gel case and purchased the leather swivel hip case for the moto cliq from t-mobile. with a little bit of stretching they both fit perfectly. Not to much work to pull it out or slide in. Try this out. They have 2 cases at t-mobile. find the one with the magnetic button and not the concealed magnet. Good luck!
I found a horizontal Rocketfish leather holster that is a perfect fit for the Vibrant with an average thickness gel skin at Best Buy. Not too snug, not too lose; feels like it was made for the phone.
I can't find a link to it on their website but it was a universal case and, suprisingly, very well constructed with soft black leather.
It has a swivel clip but it lays flat against the case so the phone doesn't protrude far from your waist.
I bought a leather holster that's made for the EVO from a Sprint store. It fits great with the tmo gel skin on it.

I got the same one. A few days of pushing my phone in the case it fits perfect.
The best fitting case is the leather holster sold by Verizon for the Droid X. It is a perfect fit with the T-Mobile gel skin.

I need some help finding the perfect case.
I want a case that is tight fitting not loose. I'm looking for a case that comes off easily so I can swap batteries and charge with my dock. I want it to be a full case not just the snap on ones that just cover the back. I dont want a strictly silicone case since they dont slide out of a leather holster easily and they are loose.
What I have tried.
1) Seidio Active- It was easy to take off but it discolors way to easily and doesnt slide out of the pocket well.
2) Body glove case- I like this case but it doesnt come apart easily.
3) Cheap ebay case- Discolored easily and doesnt come apart easily.
What im considering.
1) Seidio Innocase II- Im not sure how slick this case is and how easily it will slide out of a leather holster. I like that it will come apart easily so I can swap my battery and charge in my dock
2) Otterbox Commuter- Does this come off easily? Will this slide out of a holster easily?
3) Case Mate tough case- Does this come off easily? Will this slide out of a holster easily?
Im looking for suggestions so PLEASE help me out.
Try reading some reviews at www.goodandevo.net ... Jenn over there (same person who runs Pocketables) has reviewed quite a few of those items.

Have you tried the one made by HTC yet? It is a rubber case which comes off easily and it DOES fit with a holster, it is much easier to take out of the pocket since it is not that sticky rubber that pulls your pockets inside out when you pull it out. It's got a really smooth feel to it, quite nice , I got it like a month ago and it is working beautifully for me
Which case is the htc case? Can you post a link please?
What about the 'Barely There' cases by Case Mate? Anyone have experience with one of these?

I do not want a clip on case like that. I want one that wraps around the front edge of the phone all around the screen
I have both a red and a black innocase II and i think that it does indeed seem to fit your requirements for a case. The reason why i mentioned that i have two different colors is that i did manage to break the black one, but that was because i crushed it while the case was off of the device, when its on the phone everything is solid.
The black one is about the same slickness as the stock back battery cover, while the red one for whatever reason is a bit grippier than the black one. I don't have a holster to test but it seems like it wouldn't be too much trouble to slide it in and out of one, i can pull it out of my jeans pocket without difficulty for sure though.
will the spring clip holster work with any other case other than seidio and otter style cases? im trying to narrow down my options..so far i like the active fishbone style case, the seidio active, and just a regular silicon case.,and for the spring clip holster how firmly does the clip holds the phone in place?
A question about an accessory in the general section?
Hi,
Does anyone know if the Proporta Alu-Leather vertical pouch will fit the S3 with a TPU case?
If not does anyone know of pouch (vertical or horizontal but without a belt clip) that is available in the UK and will fit the S3 with a TPU case on?
Not looking for cloth or neoprene type socks, I want something that will offer good protection to the screen when it's in my pocket.
The only only that I can think of is the Capdase Luxe but I'm not keen on that due to the window.
I will be carrying the phone in my jacket or trouser pocket so the belt clip is really a no no unless it is removeable or unobtrusive.
Many thanks
Martin
Update - well my TPU case turned up today, haven't got my S3 but the TPU case fits just fine in the Krussell Donsö case I had for my HTC Sensation (apart from the length - sticks out by 10mm or so) so here's hoping it will still fit when I get the S3 in it.
Since it's designed to fit the seidio surfsce case which is about 1mm or so thick it seems as though it might fit any thin-fitting case fairly well. The holsters top clip is spring tensioned and i think it will clamp down on the top of the phone in the Ringke Slim case too.
Anybody try this or a similar combo before?
