Arm holster? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anybody have a arm holster? I'm looking for a way to attach the phone to me while I jog in the morning. It isn't comfortable having the phone in my pocket or even holding it for a quick run. Let me know if such a thing exist for our awesome device.

Well I use a small camera pouch wich I pull through my belt , it works great as long as you do not have a to large one...
But I do think this is actually what you are aiming for :
http://www.ebay.in/itm/Black-Horizontal-Leather-Belt-Clip-Case-Cover-Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-X10-/260867611350

Nah In all seriousness this is probably what he is looking for.

If you look up "Xperia X10 Sport Armband" on Ebay you can pick one up for $5-$10

correct , I thought it was a belt-holster stinky was after but after reading once more I saw "arm-holster"....
my bad....

forget about ebay and all of those others .. waste of money!
use this site :
(cant post the address) site name: Deal Extreme. Google it..
they ship from hong-kong I think, shipment is free... most of the arm bands\holsters over there are around 1-2$
basically everything you buy is made in china so you might as well pay what its actually worth...
I used this site several times and got my shipment around 2 weeks ...
and they accept pay-pal
if you dont find for XPERIA the ones for iPhone work as well .. size is the same ...
It fitted perfectly for me and I have an X10 ~_~
plus look for something which can be closed from all the sides so the phone wont slide down ...
all of the arm bands are quite the same so its waste to over pay one something like that
hope it will help...

i bought one off ebay, just search for x10 armband
it's a clear case, the plastic interferes with the touchscreen
i cut off the top slightly to allow easier access
i can't find the my exact purchase, but it's just a simple black armband, just be careful the length of the strap is long enough
as for running with it, kind of heavy, but very useful with endomondo installed to use the gps tracking

Car holder

After looking arrounf the net for a good car holder for a while I've decided to make one myself. I was thinking about something not bulky, ability to securely hold the iMATE, integrated power connector, easy access, color match to my interior, and yeah, did I mentioned NOT BULKY?
So, I took my old car holder for my Sony Ericsson phone (RIP) Replaced the bottom connector with modified and hacked XDA2, painted front plate of the color to silver, attached to the back vent hooks from my another car holder for my iPAQ (RIP). I am pleased with the result Here are some pics of it. Lemme know whaddya think

Looks really neat ID64 I like the simple clean concepts with most of the XDA II exposed. Great stuff. I think you could also use a windscreen mount with the same setup.
I recently bought an integrated kit from Thailand for my unit but am waiting on my reloaction to Australia later this month before fitting it to whatever car I buy in Sydney.
Since you like tinkering in hardware, think you could do anything with this idea? http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8517&highlight=back
Ed
That sir is a bloody superb creation, small, neat and looks like it was designed for the XDAII
Fantastic job ID64, i have one of them brackets lying around somewhere and will give that a try too, but i dont think it will come out looking quite as professional as yours. What are weekends for? DIY. Dont think the wife is gonna be to pleased though, she wants me to decorate the bedroom. I dont think so!!!
Forget the holder, thats a nice car! VR6? What the dial next to the side mirror?
Anyway, will the holder keep the XDA tightly while going round the corner at 50 mph?
Forgot to say, dig the shades on the dashboard

Thanks This is Jetta/Bora 1.8T, Wolfsburg Edition. Dial you're reffering to is a boost gauge.

Soft pouch

Pretty cheap... will let you know how they are.
They are for the Diamond not the Diamond 2, the "2" in the title refers to the number of cases you get not the model number. The pouch may fit but it will be a tight squeeze if it does.
Lol! Well I still have the Diamond so they wont go to waste. I'll let you know if thy somehow fit!
Recieved a few days ago and the TD2 fits in perfectly. Result!

Some pics would be nice....
I also ordered this pouch (yesterday) and will receive it soon (I hope). I will post some pictures.
If you look at the link in the first post above (the pouch(es) item on ebay), you'll see near the bottom a section "questions from other members", where the seller confirms that the pouch he's selling is not suitable for the TD2. I too need a pouch/case soonest, but it would clearly be daft to consider this one!
If you read a few posts up you will see that he tells that it fits perfectly, even though it isn't made for the Diamond 2...
He is out of stock, where else can I buy a really sleek and think pouch for the TD2? I want one that is really thin so that it still fits in my jeans.
I bought a pouch from amazon, said it was for the touch diamond 2
http://www.amazon.co.uk/U-Bop-SlipSLEEVE-Stitched-Formfit-Diamond2/dp/B0026HHN8M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1241914099&sr=8-1 but Im not impressed, doesnt fit very well, luckily i had a £5 off voucher from amazon so only paid £1 odd for it! Still keeping my eye out for a official HTC version.
the felt style pouch fits a treat i can also confirm

takes around 4-5 days to arrive but worth it for the price. Would cost between £7-10 for the same thing over here

G-tab accessories

Hey peeps, just picked up my G-Tab and need a screen protector and other small accessories. Any tips you can share before I hack the crap out of this device? Where is the best place to get accessories?
Posted from my Galaxy S Fascinate. Visit us at ModADroid.com.
unfortunately there really are no accessories yet. i'm waiting on a screen protector myself, for now leaving the one that came on it on. picking up a business card holder at officemax today until the hdmi dock comes out. so i guess get to hacking
Man that's important... need to find a substitute then...
Posted from my Galaxy S Fascinate. Visit us at ModADroid.com.
some people are getting netbook screen protectors and cutting them to fit, but i've gotta believe there will be ones made for the gtablet soon..
Send emails to the major vendors - I am going to start doing that. The more we ask, the more likely screen protectors will become available.

One good thing to know is that these ship with 2 layers of conductive film in place so if you smooth out the air bubbles in the shipping film they work pretty darn good for at least the short term...

yep, i still have my bottom layer on. the edges don't look good though.
I want to order a Nushield for my gtab. Do u think that would help with the viewing angles?
I bought this case from Amazon. I chose it because it had carry handles (can you say "man purse"?) The gtablet fits very well width wise, but has an extra inch or two height wise. It also has a pocket for cables and a few extras. Soft interior. I also ran across this same thing at Sams Club as a "one-time buy" for less than $10.

I Recognize This!!
I recognize this. When I bought my G-Tablet at Sears, they gave me one of these for free!
It was packaged in G-Tablet packaging like it is the one G-Tablet will provide, but it still has the "Case Logic" tag one.
It works well and has an auxiliary pocket -- but the tablet fits inside loosely so I'm looking for some padding to make it a little more solid and provide additional protection.
But for $5.99...........what do you expect!!!!????

What about this DOCK?

Beautiful ornate black iron stand for G-tablet < $10

I love my Arkon stand, but got tired of folding it up and tucking it in the case to carry to work so I started looking for another. Found this one on Amazon and thought it would look great ... and it does! Comes in gold too.

It is way classier-looking than any other I have seen and works just as well in Portrait mode. A caveat, they are buying these from china and the welding is not as precise so you may need to (like I did) take some pliers to it to straighten the arms a bit. I had some foam grip things made for pens/pencils that slid over the arms to make a nice cushy bed for my tab.
I clicked the link and while it describes a stand, it shows pictures of Boots. Yeah, BOOTS! Haha, and also keep in mind that the person purchasing would have to have Amazon Prime to get it for under $10 shipped. (I do have amazon prime, but I'm not in need of boots ) But it does qualify for FSSS (spend $25 on qualifying products and free shipping).
The picture you posted does look really nice though.

Yes, and in fact once I placed the order - that is what showed (picture) with the description of the stand so I wrote the seller. I made it EXTREMELY clear that if it was not exactly as described, they would be getting it back ... on their dime. They replied immediately, assuring me the stand was what was ordered. And that IS what I received.
That is the beauty of Amazon and prime, the service is unparalleled. If something is not exactly as described, refund is easy and immediate and if it is not a big-ticket thing, generally I keep the wrong item for free.
In reality it is every bit as nice as the (non-boots) picture. Very pleased with it and if anyone else in the family had tabs, they would be getting them as gifts.
With it being cast iron, I would think that it would be pretty rough on the case of the G-Tab. Any other stand that I have found has some sort of "padding".
I saw similar stands in Wal-Mart today for about $3.50. I bought the wooden ones for a few cents more.

Funny you should mention that. I was originally thinking of some heat-shrink tubing over the little arms that hold the tab and then saw something on a clearance table at the dollar store.
The little foam sleeves that go on pens and pencils fit perfectly. Come in beaucoup colors too.

I use a Flygrip. It works as a horizontal and vertical stand and keeps me from dropping the phone. I having been using one since my Note 2 and always the first accessory I buy.
I use a plastic business card holder on my nightstand. Cheap and simple. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001E6EWVW/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_iapCub1KJB7Y8

I like this one as it is natural small and portable
or if you like bigger one
you can search on AMAZON for MINIMAL PHONE STAND
I bought this Anker Stand from Amazon a couple of years ago and have used it for 3 different phones and 4 different tablets. Still works great, and the ability to change the angle is a really nice bonus.
