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 was debating between this one and the ballistic and then ended up getting the ballistic. The seido is nice like the kickstand but it doesnt have all the openings on the back that the phone needs as the ballistic does and the seido is mostly all rubber it would catch lint and be hard to pull out of your pocket in a hurry. The ballistic also seems much more rugged I love the case lol.

Yeah, the reason i liked the Seidio case was because of the kickstand. And i just looked at the ballistic case, it's beautiful!! i think i might go for that one! Thanks ruffrider5956!

Looks like you already made your decision, but here's my mini review on the Seidio Active case with kickstand and holster combo.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1282689

I have the case/holster combo but NOT the kickstand version.
I absolutely love it. Sturdy, soft feel in your hand but solid protection from moderate drops and bumps.
Yes, it's a little pricey, but so is the phone if you break it and have to get a new one/repair it.
It's great quality period.

yeah the ballistic case looks awesome and protects really you'll love it.

Thanks, means alot!

I'm using the sapphire blue regular Seidio and I love it. (http://www.seidioonline.com/htc-sensation-4g-active-case-sapphire-blue-p/csk3htsen-bl.htm)
It comes with silicone and plastic cover. Pretty easy to slip in and out of your pocket too.

I've had the Seidio HTC Sensation ACTIVE Combo with Kickstand (that's the holster and case) on my Sensation 4G since October of last year. Bottom line, once I got it, I didn't need to look any further.
I tried many kickstand covers and cases and general stands for my Sensation before, and none was as good overall. You can see this old thread where we discussed all of them.
The Seidio is pricey, but I now know it's well worth the expense. I'll always buy from Seidio going forward. You can get this cheaper off Ebay than direct from Seidio. See here, both the holster and case in a combo are selling for just under $40. But direct from Seidio, just the case alone cost $35. The combo cost $50 if you buy direct from Seidio.
I've learned 2 things:
Buy Seidio cases and holsters.
Don't buy Seidio cases and holsters "directly" from Seidio .

I originally bought the sapphire blue case only...and it is absolutely excellent.
I got it shipped off Ebay or Amazon (don't remember) for 26 or 28 bucks.
Girlfriend (same phone) liked it so much I got her a purple one, combo for 32 shipped (no kickstand, just a case and holster) and I quickly bogarted her holster...LOL.
The ONLY gripe I have is when you go to put it in the holster sometimes the upper clip wants to push the top of the rubber case back. You just learn to "open the jaw" of the holster clip to slide your phone in.
We have 19 of these devices at work. I bought a ton of Chinese ebay cheapies...and some people bought their own.
After they see my case and touch/feel how sturdy yet soft it is, they're sold.
It is nice, period. The hard plastic exoskeleton really makes the case, covers the corners...etc.

I'm using the Seidio Active without the kick stand, "they didn't have them when I got it in Sept last year".
It's an excellent case and isn't bulky at all, but like another poster stated the clip on the holster does tend to go under the rubber lip of the case. I've also just gotten use to lifting up the clip before inserting the phone.
Otherwise after 8 months of use the case still looks great, it's a great product.

I bought several cases and after being really dissappointed in build quality, non-existant hole-cutouts, etc. I coughed up for the Seidio.
It is absolutely awesome. As others have said, the look and feel are marvelous - and after dropping my phone a couple of times I can also vouch that it does it's 'day job' perfectly too.

an awesome case
I have this case without the kickstand for 7 months. While I realize having a kick stand is one of the main selling points for you, I can attest to the quality of this case. The phone is wrapped in a molded silicone (that doesn't get stuck in pockets) and has flexible plastic wrapping around that on the corners and side to take the brunt of the blows from drops. It is an awesome hybrid case that is not bulky at all. I honestly don't understand how people can pay good money for those humongous otter boxes that make your phone 3x the size. Boggles my mind. Me and my friends have gone through a LOT of cases. This is my first Seidio. I'm hooked.

I also have this case and it is awesome. It provides really good protection and the kickstand is the cherry on the cake. I am enjoying this case really much.
I bought it after being disappointed with about 3 other cases that I bought. This is my ultimate case.

Totally respect your choice. But wanted to mention I have the one with the kickstand and I don't find it to be excessively bulky and has held up well for months. All Seidio stuff is well built.

I think it looks really nice in white, the kickstand could be useful. But its kinda expensive :/ Hope they get finished with it soon!

Looks awesome and I've already present ordered one from a website. They are pricey but well made. Plus they make the best holsters. Unfortunately i wasn't able to order the holster for it from the site i purchased from, but will the day they come out. Out of all of them, the red looks nicest to me with that anodized look it has, but being military I cant wear a phone in uniform that isn't black or grey.

The surface case with/without the holster is now shipping according to their site.
Hopefully it shouldn't be too long for the active case.

Yes, jay above you had it already and he hates it. It's kinda of a touchy subject with him lol. But I never bought a surface case for my devices because I hated the way they have to put on. Kinda like taking off sweats before a shower after working out lol.
But I have active cases for my Sensation, which is my wife's phone now, my Nexus 7 and before the N7 I had one for my Kindle Fire. They are all well made. Even though there's a chemical smell like it was fresh off the mold lol, it dissipates within a weeks time.
I for one can't wait for the Active combo. I love the holsters as well. Right now I am using a Gnex Seidio Surface holster with my diztronic ultra thin shell and it works, but doesn't seat to my satisfaction.

FYI, The surface holster for the Nexus 4 works with pretty much any TPU case. I tried it with the I-Blazon and the Diztronic, and both work great. If you nee to go "thin" but want to use a holster, it does work.

Sadly yes, the Active does not allow it for wireless charging. But I intend to use the Active case on travel. Being it airplane or train, I will be using the kickstand on those trips. And when I am traveling, I am not bringing any of my wireless chargers, so wireless charging would be a moot point.
For day to day use, I use the Cruzerlite XDA case at this point with the Surface holster, so I am good at this point.

A lot of people here might not like to hear me say it but the active can mess up your phone. Not the actives fault... I'd say its the crappy chrome bezels fault. Its pretty easy to get particles under the silicone on this case. It has great impact protection but I did get some scuffs on the bezel above the speaker after using it a week straight. Also somehow the magnet from the kickstand or something with the case pug some strange hazing that won't go away on my rear wet apply screen protector. Something to watch out for. The marks are square in shape etc. I'm hoping it will go back to normal after some time but it doesn't I can just buy a new screen protector for the back. Back to tpu with the surface holster for now.

I have to clarify my last point. The marks on the screen protector go away after a few hours out of the case.

Embedded for your pleasure.

Anyone have experience with a Ballistic Shell Gel case on a previous phone? I know it isn't available for the N4 yet but I'm torn on getting that or the Seidio Active. I don't care much for the kickstand so that's not a huge deal for me. I'm also guessing the Ballistic case won't allow wireless charging either since it looks like it has similar construction/thickness to the Seidio Active.

I think it's the metal kickstand that prevents the charging, not the extra thickness.

Comparing my ballistic galaxy nexus to the nexus 4 with active, the ballistic is much thicker! The silicone on the ballistic is thicker and so is the hard plastic. You need the convert holster if you want to use a holster with the ballistic. I have no doubt it will be an awesome case but it will not let you wireless charge.

Do you feel like the phone / case fits in the belt holster a bit loosely? It doesn't seem as secure as the one I had for my GS3?
Curious what others think?

well i cant compare as this fits good for me

I also just got the defender and it does fit the phone very nice. But I don't like how it fits in the holster, it feels secure but almost imposable to get it snapped in on the first try or without having to look to get it aligned. Once in the holster it's also difficulty to remove as the release point is on the top, if you have it rotated on your belt.
I'm currently using the Platinum case with holster from Best Buy which is the same as the Seidio surface combo. No where the protection as the Otterbox but very easy to snap in and out the holster.
I'll keep looking for a little ore protection with an easy belt clip function.

I had a question with the defender case. When you guys first got the case did u notice there were bubbles between the screen and the screen protector? Do they eventually disappear? Attached is a picture of it. (Sorry for bad lighting)

Looking for stand alone holster suggestions.

There's a few times in the past where I have used different cases that I really liked with a holster since there was not a matching holster with the case.
Looks like I'm going to run in the same situation here and was wondering if anybody had a good line of holster vertical or horizontal that they would recommend.
I'd prefer something with a rotating belt clip on it.
Thank you.

Pouch with a belt clip? So like an old Blackberry one? I have a pouch from Begoos on Etsy and its great, but it doesn't have a belt clip.

Not sure exactly what you are looking for but here is one I bought..... I posted it in a thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/accessories/dragonfly-universal-nylon-mobile-phone-t3289056

Search in Etsy. They have plenty of handmade pouches.

I should have said Holster I guess, but I figured folks would point me to case/holster combos. You know, like this...

Sorry for the confusion, was a crazy night, let me update the OP.

Bump

This is the case/holster combo i use. Not the leather-y pouch like you linked, but i'm more of a fan of something more solid protecting the phone.

Thanks, I've sworn off of Seidio though. Cheap holsters that the clips break off of all the time, horrible customer service, and other issues I've had with them. I've found some excellent cases for the 6P, just need a holster to put it in. The TUDIA OMNIX is the one I'm trying to find a holster to fit right now.

Here's another one,: Encased Spring Holster.
Not sure on the quality, but I do highly recommend Seidio products though.

That looks very interesting. I did buy the Seidio one similar to that one for my Nexus 6P though . I bought the one for the iPhone 6 Plus. The fit wasn't perfect but very close. I stopped using it after my phone popped out once. The clip also cracked the top of my IntelliArmor TGSP.

That's interesting. I've been using the Seidio surface holster made for the iCrap 6+ with the Nillkin Nature case without any issues or the device popping out. The clip is flat on top of the device and not at an angle suggesting the device is too tall for the holster.

I'd never use Seidio products again. Terrible customer service/support, and the clips for the holsters break like candy.
I believe this Encased one is only for naked phones though.

This is great! i was looking for one of these when i got my phone when it launched. Gave up on looking for one after a couple weeks though. Just placed an order for this one. Thanks!!!

I broke the holster to my case when it got caught on a chair and broke the left side support. The holster is the type where the phone slides in vertically bottom to top. I don't like the type where the phone snaps into the holster or leather pouches.
Does anyone know if you can buy the holster ONLY - NO CASE for the nexus 6p?
I need a holster cover with swivel clip. I don’t care if it is made by same manufacturer as my current generic soft lining and hard plastic shell case. I have searched ebay, amazon and other sites in google but could only find replacement holsters if I buy another case. I have four different cases already so I am sure I can find one to fit the holster.
I have checked out options in this thread but checking if there are other ideas.

Using the Seidio surface case holster.

Ditto on Seidio holsters breaking. I had theirs for my previous phone and wouldn't recommend it. Their design is flawed. I had an encased holster for my S6 and it worked really well. Design was probably one of the better.

Bump. I'm looking for something similar. Problem is that most of the pouches I find online are cheap and will eventually tear or break somehow.
