Hey, do any of you guys know of any cases that are a sideways leather holster able to hold credit cards, made for the infuse? the closest I could find was this one:

But that doesn't have a clip or loop for the belt.

This may be a bit excessive, but in case that's what you're looking for:

Maybe you can stitch and glue a belt clasp onto the first case? The second one looks like a tourist would wear it just before getting mugged.

That looks fantastic! I'm ordering one now...
Isn't it kind of a bad idea to stick your credit cards right next to your Infuse? That's pretty rough on the mag strips, isn't it? Just asking...
Does anyone know of an armband that the Skyrocket will fit into? I've been looking locally to see if I can find one with little success.

Just so anyone looking knows, the Belkin Dual Fit armband for the Samsung Galaxy S2 (bought it at Target) does fit, though the headphone hole is on the wrong side.
It's a tight fit, but it does work.
Altarocks, have you had a chance to try this holster? If so how would you rate it, pros/cons?
I've had one for about a month. Very happy with it. Mainly use it for running. The strap is comfortable and has multiple strips of velcro. It's plenty long for any arm. Snug fit, but easy to get your SR in (without a case). Touch screen works well even with my Ghost Armor. The GA does tend to stick a little when you remove the phone, so you need to separate it with your finger first so the GA doesn't touch the window before you can remove it.
Kinda hard to see your screen, but that's due to the size of the SR, not the band.
One note: don't expect this to protect from water - there are openings top and bottom. It does seem to protect from sweat though.

thanks Altarocks and thanks OP. Was needing these for the wife and I.
fits in there nice and snug. it's got access holes on top and bottom for headphone plug (depending on how you orient your phone and where you like the plug to come out. Screen and home buttons all work great. This is the arkon from Amazon. Thanks again!!
I checked out the Akron on Amazon. Does anyone have a case that fits the screen well? Being able to run and have good screen contact is a priority!
Anyone have an armband case that works if your phone is already in a case? I'd like to have an armband for working out so it's not flopping all over in my pocket, but don't want to remove it everytime I go for a run. Any suggestions that work well?
I got this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UA4G4QA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have a Spigen Ultra Hybrid on it, which is probably a bit slimmer than the Commuter, but I would expect the Commuter to fit in it, as well. I liked this particular armband because it only has the one hole for the headphone jack whereas some of them have several holes to accommodate other phones.

I like that one! Looks like your case is a bit slimmer, but I actually like that case too haha. Worst case, I'll order both For $8, it's worth a shot. Thanks flu!
Did you end up getting this armband? I also have a otterbox commuter and would like to know your experience with the armband. Or did you find an alternative?
Thanks

I did! It fits perfectly, but I did have to cut off the cover that goes over the headphone port. Like, the rubber flap. But I like it!
You mean cut it off of the phone or the armband?

Well, the armband has a hole so your headphone plug can go through. But you can't keep the cover on the otterbox bent back while you shove it in the case. So I cut the rubber flap off from the Otterbox. Does that make sense?

Ah gotcha. Makes perfect sense. That's a shame, but I guess it's not too big of a deal.
does your phone get wet if you start to sweat? Also is it comfortable to run with?
I've never actually ran with my pone or an armband before but want to start so I can listen to music and map my runs, etc.

I like it! I used to run with my phone and my pocket, and that got annoying. This is my first one also. If you sweat a lot, the back might get a little sweat on it. The back is like a foam.
Awesome. Thanks for your help. I think I'm going to get one.
Moto X pure case with a flat surface back?
Hi guys, I'm new to XDA. I ordered a product called the Mountek AirSnap and it requires the back of the phone to be flat. What it does is basically a mount you mount on your cars AC vents and it comes with a magnetic adhesive badge that you can put on your phone or case but it requires it to be flat. Anyone know of any cases that would do the trick? Thank you guys in advance.
Just buy some 3m vhb tape. It's foam so it will work with the slight curve of the back. That's what I use for my steelie magnetic mount. Holds on like a wet cat to a screen door.

I am using the mountek snap over a year now but with my nexus 5 (and old nexus 4 before that) with the magnetic strip stuck on my spigen slim cover. And it worked awesome!
I recently ordered the moto x style and don't plan on using the mountek with it primarily because its curved back not providing enough contact.
Also the moto x style is so big and beautiful that I plan to carry it bare bones without any case (not many slim cases out there). That leaves me the option of sticking the ugly magnetic strip to its beautiful back... No way!!
Also beware of the magnetic field interaction with the NFC etc. That thing can potentially spoil the phone, my old nexus 4 touch screen stopped working right in the middle area. I am not going to risk that with the new moto x style

Thank you for the information , I have heard magnetic strips messing up some parts of the phone .. However if I get some kind of heavier case and attach the magnet to that case , do you think that will be enough space between the phone and the magnet to affect it ?

I'm a little confused .. Is the tape itself magnetic ? And if it is then wouldn't the curved back of the phone not provide enough contact to the mount

Yeah I guess thicker the case, lesser the chances of interference... Bear in mind MXPE is already quite thick in the middle, a thick case would make it less ergonomic. Unless you want to just use a case only while driving...
I would suggest buying any cheap easy to apply/remove tpu case and attach the double side tape and magnetic strip on it... I might do that using the tape suggestion..

That sounds like a pretty good idea but wouldn't the curve of the phone (also the curve of the case) not allow the badge to sit properly ?

That's where the double sided tape would come in I believe.. Flattening out the curved back

Have looked to buy some of this 3m tape to use it on my magnetic car holder but there are quiet few versions of 3m vhb tapes.
Do you remember which one you used?
Thanks.
Any kind should work. Just reference 3m website for adhesive properties that fit your needs.
I'm really in need of a good case as my girlfriend and I have a Mi Max 3 and distinguishing between them is proving a nightmare!
Where has a good selection of case? I'm particularly after a red case of some kind.

Ebay, Amazon, or AliExpress. Where are you located? I can help narrow it down for you.
I got this one yesterday. A simple plastic case. Not bad at all:

Thanks. I'd already done that search and originally only the first one showed up with the metal ring in the back for mounting in magnetic holders. If I could find a magnetic holder that had a suction attachment I might consider that but the only car holders of that type all seem to have 'sticky' holders that no doubt would not take to repeated removal; something I have to do due to having to drive different cars.
I see the rugged one is now there as well. I'm tempted by that as I've had a Spigen case for years though the size of it on an already sizeable phone might be a little too much.

I use these in my vehicles2 Packs) Phone Mount, Mpow Air Vent Magnetic Phone Holder Grip Magic Mobile Phone Car Cradle Universal Car Mount for iPhone 7 6 6 Plus 5 Nexus 7 Samsung S7 S6 Note 5 4 Huawei P9 and other Smartphones https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01K6IE7J0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_pFfDBbDZTH3NJ.
Just slip the metal piece between your phone and the case without peeling off the adhesive, and it will work perfectly well. Makes it very easy to take your phone on and off with a solid hold without coming off your AC vent. Thank me later :highfive:

Haha, I'm really tempted by those, especially as I can get free delivery but I have to drive quite a varied selection of cars and some have the non-compatible air vents. Though I have managed to find the magnetic + suction cup car holders so just looking into some of those. i.e.

That looks solid. I like the ones I sent because they fit thick and thin vents (just turn them to see). You take them in and out of cars and travel easily. If it's a vent that moves, I put one in one corner and the second in the opposite corner, so it prevents the vent from moving. I understand the difference of vents as you stated. Two usually fixes the issue. I like your suction cup one too, though, as long as the size doesn't bug you. They make ball/socket vent magnets too (gives greater flexibility and rotation).
Do you recommend good flip case for this phone?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/For-6-9-...var=472154323829&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
The case itself is OK, just a standard TPU case though the metal piece on the back for attaching to a magnetic car holder provide a very weak bond that does not hold the phone. Fortunately I bought this holder here.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Dash...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
This comes with 2 extra magnetic plates, one circular and one rectangular. These offer excellent grip strenght and I glued the circular one to the back over the metal plate and it now works very well.
Eventually as more cases for the Max3 emerge I will get another case and glue the plate to that as I'm not totally happy with the height of the raised back.
The car holder is excellent though and good value for money, with great suction strength and very sturdy.
