[Q] Good Holster WITHOUT Case? - HTC Sensation

Anyone know of a good holster for the Sensation that does not also require a bumper case? I was looking at the Seidio Active holster, and I liked the way it looked (glass-in, etc), but frankly I don't want to cover up my Sensation in some fugly plastic-and-gel combo, and the Active holster apparently needs the Active case to go with it. Are there any others out there?

I was looking for the same the last few months, but gave up. I luv'd the seidio holster that had protected my bare Nexus1!

Look at the Reiko holsters. The one I got for my HD2 works just as well for my Sensation

Holster that will fit Nexus one with case on?

I am looking for a good holster that will hold the Nexus One while it has a case on. I have a transparent TPU case (have to show off the sexy engraving on the back). Does anyone have a recommended case that can hold or adjust to the nexus one while it has the added bulk of a case on it?
I am looking for something like the Seidio Innocase Case Holster which is here on Amazon.
If you check out down in the review area there is a video and a guy reviewed it and it seems to fit the Innocase inside the holster pretty well. Didn't look like it would fall out.
Anyone have any experience or suggestions with this? Let me know. Thanks.
EDIT: I actually just discovered that there are 2 versions of the Seidio Holsters; one for a device that does not have a case and one for a device that does have a case.
You can check out a good Youtube review of the Holster and Innocase here.
You can see that there is a special version of the holster here on Seidio's website.

IMO holsters = dropped phone... Either the phone pops out on its own, or gets bumped...
My thing is that I've had the dust under the screen problem so I wanted to get it out of my pocket. It does raise the risk of a drop though, this is true. Who wants to drop a $530 phone.

Oh, I use horizontal cases, have for years. Never dropped a phone from one, just of course you gotta be mindful when you're putting it in, taking it out.. And personally I always get them with a belt clip (to keep it in place on my belt) and belt loops. One case I had didn't have belt loops and I was always finding the phone in my car seat where it pushed off my belt.
I recently ordered this case... Hopefully coming in the next day or two. Otherwise I have some cheap cases which work, or my beat-to-hell Seideo case.. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001IM61D4/ref=oss_product
Only time I ever pocket carry a phone is when I have a new phone and I'm transitioning between the two, or sometimes on the weekend when I'm just lazing around the house.
I use a nite ize heavy duty holster. Size medium. It fits my otterbox defender and casemate tough case NP.
I use a cellet bergamo iPhone belt clip / holster nice and snug on my innocase 2

I have a Best Buy Platnium Case and would like to get a Leather Holster.

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.
igear360.com/2010/09/01/review-sprint-protective-cover-czs6842r-for-the-samsung-epic-4g/
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

[Q] Best Rugged Case/Holster

I'm about to purchase an HTC Desire, and I'm shopping for a good case/holster so I'm ready to go once I get the new phone (just waiting on the contract to expire)...
I work in a manufacturing plant, and I'm pretty rough on phones. I typically carry them horizontally on my belt, and I'm looking for something similar. However, I want something that will protect as much as possible as it get bumped on equipment, conveyor, etc. Screen-in is a must, obviously. I'd really like something that protects the phone all the time, and then some sort of holster that holds the phone with the protection.
The best thing I've found is a Innocase Rugged Combo, but it's only available for the Nexus One, and won't fit the desire...
Something similar I've found is a snap-on hard case combo but I haven't found any reviews. It's a hard cover and a clip-type holster together from Techie Warehouse (mfg unknown).
Then there are clip-type holsters like the Amzer Rubberized holster.
Or leather holsters like the MobiMan Premium.
Then, I've always got the option to make something. My best friend makes leather and kydex holsters, so I'm tempted to make my own holster like the leather or clip one. I would just keep the phone in armor like the Case-Mate Barely There, Case-Mate Tough, or PDair Aluminum Case within the holster I make.
What do you guys think? Any experience with any of these, especially the Techie hard combo case? Thanks,
Danny
Have you had a peek at the OtterBox line of cases? They are pretty tough, especially the Defender. The Desire cases are at http://www.otterbox.com/desire-cases/desire-cases,default,sc.html. Only the Defender has a belt clip, and it's made to fit the case. Someone else on XDA had one, and they dropped their Desire down a set of stairs, and it hit a wall and then the ground, and the case was undamaged, and so was the phone.
Just quickly, and off topic, but welcome to xda-developers, shorin!
Yes, I looked at the Otterbox cases. They look very nice, but they just don't quite meet my needs.
The Defender does have a belt clip, but it places the screen out. I'd break the screen in a day with that...
I have considered the Commuter if I make my own holster.
Thanks for the welcome. I've been on here quite a while. Just never needed to post until now...
Thanks,
Danny
It looks like the Otterbox Defender may be the ticket. I did some looking again, and I didn't see any reason the phone wouldn't fit with the screen in.
I found a review on YouTube that confirms this and I also asked the question via the Q&A on the Otterbox website and they confirmed that the holster will work screen-in.
Problem solved...
Danny
No problem!

Just a lily note. I personally use the otterbox defender. It fits the holder screen in or out. And my opinion the best protection money can buy.

Leather flip case or pouch+hardcase ?

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.

Belt Clip Holster for HTC Sensation that can be used with TPU cover

I am on a quest to get a Belt Clip Holster that works with my Sensation which has a Yoobao TPU cover.
I looked on Ebay and saw this one but it's expensive. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Seidio-HTC-...Accessories&hash=item2a154db4cf#ht_3810wt_956
Anyone has experience or got one that's cheaper and works the same?
I am tired of carrying the phone in my pocket, and to be honest I like more the TPU cover than the OtterBox commuter that I also have.

I have this with my active kickstand seidio case. But I am getting a tpu case soon. I'll report back if it works with this holster or not.
I have the seido surface holster and it works perfect with my leather case. it was reported by someone else that it would work with tpu cases as well

Thank you,
I saw a thread a while ago that someone used yours with a TPU cover and it worked perfectly.
What I am looking is a cheaper solution, $29 for it for me is too much.

I hear ya. But I have to say that the Seidio Active holster is a quality holster compared to the holsters I have had in the past.
I think you are referring to the video review of the tough casemate, active seidio and trident cases and the guy used the casemate case with the active seidio holster. Was there another thread that used a tpu with this holster?
It is well worth the quality IMO but each his/her own I say. GL to you!
