As no one seems to make a silicone case for the XDAI, does anyone know if one designed for the XDAII will fix okay if I make a cut-out for the antenna?
Thanks,

I recently upgraded to an XDA II. I find that my XDA I leather case fits loosely, and the reset/headset holes do not line up. So I doubt you could get a decent fit with a case not made for your device.

Yup. just bought a metal hard case and it certainly protects the XDA II from dings. But you can't see the screen at all when it is closed. Not sure i like it. Any body out there have one of those silicon cases?
:roll:
Yeah I did buy a silicon jobbie, but thought it looked a bit naff, and didnt protect the screen particularly, so I went back to the originally supplied flip case supplied, which I've used ever since.
so the flip case is preffered. ok. case closed 8)
Im looking into purchasing a leather case, but im curious if the magnet in the case can have any effect on the phone? Especially the ones in the cheap cases.
like this one... ( i cant post link)
so type
Leather Case Skin for Samsung Galaxy S Epic 4G Sprint in the ebay search box and it should come up.
If anyone has any recommendations for other leather cases please let me know. Also feel free to share your experiences with leather cases.
Thank You

Havent had a problem, use a leather magnetic case from eddie bauer that I found at Best Buy mobile.
Does anybody have or use the Seidio leather case for the epic? Just wondering how well it fits the phone or how well the phone slides in and out of it. Also how easily can the magnet be clamped and unclamped while not looking at it.
I bought the bestsources (seller's name, not necessarily a description, though I've had good experiences with them ) case -- I had one for my Touch Pro, one for my N900, and now one for my Epic when it gets here.
In the meantime, I'm using the N900's case for it. Fitting, since I usually used the Touch Pro's case for the N900... :/ I wonder if I'm even going to use the Epic's case.
The magnet hasn't caused any problems at all with the Epic that I've noticed.

The leather case is designed to fit a bare device so it will slide in/out smoothly, The magnet is pretty strong but works fluently with the case.
The magnet does not affect the phone.
I bought a leather holster at the Sprint store today actually.
It has a magnet, but it is not near as strong as some of the ones I have had in the past, but it still holds the flap strong against the case.
This particular case even has the Galaxy S logo etched into the metal in the middle of the flap - yeah its sexy.
$34 at Sprint, and since its Galaxy S Branded, I think it's a good deal.
For work purposes, I wold like to have a leather holster that can accommodate my Epic that has a Best Buy platinum case. Thanks!
I've also been searching for a side pouch/case that will hold my Epic with a case on it, but I haven't had any luck. I have the $20 Sprint Protective cover on my Epic.

Just as an fyi the best buy case is nothing but a seido case. While I can't specifically help you anything forthe seido case will work for the best buy case.

I haven't been able to find one that will fit. Why not just buy a leather case for work and take off your platinum case? This is just my preference, but on days when I need a more "professional" look at work, I take my hard case off and use the Samsung Galaxy S leather case with my naked Epic (http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ET-OCTSBLNBBCC). Then when I have those days when Im doing something more physical and need better protection the hardcase goes back on. In my opinion, the Epic looks better naked anyways.
I have the Galaxy S leather case and be warned the epic fits very snuggly in it. Heck that link in the post above mine, I typed in epic 4g to test compatibility with the case and they say the epic is not compatible with that case (even though sprint is pushing it). It is to the point where I am thinking about trying the seidio leather case to see if it fits better. I am kinda worried because the seidio case seems like it might be a generic case not specifically cut for our phone.
So yea, I have the leather galaxy s case and I am still looking for a better leather hip holster solution.

I'm with Masterface - same situation. Epic is VERY snug in Galaxy S case and makes it difficult to pull out easily sometimes.
Anyone find a good working leather case? I really miss my blackberry case where you slide the phone in bottom first, lets you grip on each side to get it in and out.
If one doesn't come up soon I may go for the Body Glove belt-clip/swivel/stand/case. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827717
Anyone found a good one ?
With my old phones I used a case-mate barely there, or similar, and a pouch.
However the HTC sensation is too big with a hard back cover to fit in any of my pouches
Anyone found a good leather flip case which doesn't add much bulk ?
or a pouch large enought to hold the Sensation with a hard case ?
I am using the bodyglove/kickstand case without the kickstand. They enclose a tab to plug the hole if you don't want the clip kickstand. I personally do not like kickstand but can bear the case which adds a little bulk but still fits in the pouch pictured here.

Done an unboxing video for my krusell orbit case which I love. You can make your mind up what u think

This is the case I'm currently using. My wife found it @ best buy she originally bought it for her vibrant. I asked her for it since she now uses the my touch 4g & my sensation fits like a glove even with the body glove case on.

When I bought my sensation I also bought the body glove case with the belt clip but as most of you know the case was leaving indentations on the back cover. Body glove sent me a replacement but the new ones fits very loose.
So which case do you guys recommend I purchase to replace my body glove case? I prefer hard cases over the soft tpu type cases everybody likes. I also prefer that the case has some sort of rubber or leather type material on the back. I may consider the two piece slider cases if it looks nice.
So I'm open to any suggestions. I haven't seen many threads about hard cases. Please if you can post a picture as well
Thanks

It seems like a really nice case but I personally don't like the plain and smooth look.

How about this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/4-x-New-Mesh-Hard-Case-Cover-HTC-Sensation-G14-/230640628333
I ordered a set. They're snap on cases, and doesn't protect the top/bottom, also they're flimsy Just a nice looking colored mesh back cover.
I was given one of those cases (the black one) for free by the woman (in China) I bought the phone from.. I looked and saw that dude on eBay has sold 66 sets of 4 cases for $9.99 each and given free shipping to all. I figured he's made $500 from all this because the cases only cost 5RMB each (like $0.80).. good work to him.. damn I need to move to HK haha

Wait for either Otterbox or Trident to release their cases. Ive had Otterbox previously and love their work and Trident cases look badass but havent used one yet, will probably by my next purchase when their available (1-2 weeks)

Looove the tough cases by them.
Although I wanted something different because I spent a long time with one on my nexus one... time to change it up.
Was gonna go for Incipio's similar hybrid style but they dont have it yet for the sensation
Anyone know of a case like the case-mate tough case or otterbox but on a budget? Can't afford to buy a $30-$49 case right now but I want something with protection, not a tpu case.

nillkin one ,check ebay uk or other marketplace
I got one of these off ebay. For $1.79AUD delivered I am very happy. Pretty good quality really. Protects the front and back and It has all the mic holes too.
It comes with a front piece and and a back piece that clip together.
Iv used the ROCK case, nice and slips on the easiest.
