has anyone found or have a legit known good arm band for the phone? Im looking for one that is MADE for the lte EVO so it never has a risk of falling out while running.
Just got the one from iArmbands. Without a case, the phone goes in well but the flap at the top is a bit tight to wrap over the phone. I use the Seidio Surface case, and while I can get the phone into the band, it takes a bit of struggling with that flap.
Without a case, the phone is actually a bit too narrow for this armband. With a case the phone is the right width, but the height is a bit short. The screen is controllable through the clear cover in either case.

I don't think this is what you are looking for but shopandroid.com has a waterproof case that "mounts" on your arm. It claims to be for the EVO LTE but looks kinda generic to me.

thats the one you are talking about?
I wouldnt mind using that even tho i wont be able to change songs or see the screen, but i use pandora and just let the songs play so i dont mind.
thanks for posting that site its really good! very cheap items! they have my TPU case on there for 10 bucks when i bought it for 18! =p
I ended up getting the iArmbands case for HTC phones in Otterbox cases. If you go to their site they have the model number there. It fits great with my Otterbox Commuter. It even fit my nephew's Droid Razr Maxx in an Otterbox Defender.
The only thing I don't like is that the armband itself isn't elastic and is very short. I contacted iArmbands about this and they recommended an extender from one of their competitors. I will check the name and add a follow up post.

Ah TuneBelt was what they recommended. They are only a $1.75 on Amazon. Had I known I would have bought one with the case.
One other note, I had to cut the case for the headphone cable as the holes do not align.
TuneBelt has a case that is made for large phones like the Evo 4G LTE in Otterbox and Seido cases. I am tempted to buy that with the extender just to see how well it works. It wouldn't hurt to have a spare in the car in case I forget to throw it in my gym bag.

Thanks, yeah, it took lots of digging for me to finally decide which one to get. I was a little hesitant b/c of the model number difference as well.
According to the descriptions on Amazon:
AB85 - Maximum size: Length: 5.5 inches; Circumference (2X width plus 2X depth) up to 7.75 inches.
AB86 - Maximum length: 5.4" - Maximum circumference (2X width plus 2X depth): 6.5". Design not intended for smartphones with protective cases. See models AB84 or AB85 for those needs.
I emailed them as well, and although they were prompt with responses, they weren't all that helpful so I just went by what was on the description.
I just ran a race recently and saw a runner with an actual belt-type case for her iPhone. I'd really like something like that, it's almost like a tiny fanny pack with the phone sitting lengthwise at the small of the back. I have an old Tune Belt for a CD player that's this style, I was hoping they made one for phones.

Joems,
Do you have any case on your phone? I am wondering if the phone will fit in that armband with a diztronic TPU case. Thanks.

I also have that case. It does fit. It is bit harder to get it out of the arm band.
I usually just pop off diztronic when I use the arm band.

I am hoping there are some people here who know about what brands/sites are good ones or trustworthy.
Ok, picking up my Evo 3D on Friday..... and surprise surprise, the phone isn't even out yet, yet there are a million different places with brands nobody has ever heard of with supposed cases for this phone, some of them even having dimensions smaller than the phone itself despite being listed as for the 3D.... (Yes I know, no need to tell me many manufacturers will take existing stock and claim it works for the new device just to sell it).
So the thing is, I have no idea what cases might be designed specifically for the HTC Evo 3D, or even any respectable sites to buy such cases from.
But I am also sorta over-complicating the issue by not being sure if I should first over a back cover for the phone or not. See, I am not a fan of the way the camerapod sticks out, I was wondering if there were any GOOD cases that add enough bulk to essentially make the cameras level with the rest of the phone, even if this will add thickness.
Something like this, but I don't know if this really is an official HTC product or not, and if there aren't better ones (or if that is a trustworthy site):
http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=28040
And this brings me to my main concern. The main case I want to get is a belt-clip holster, not just a simple little clip that attaches the phone to your belt but basically a whole pouch to hold it, something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Black-Horizontal-Leather-Magnetic-Closing/dp/B0051IGCAI
But on top of the problem I already mentioned of there being a million cases just simply calling themselves a HTC Evo 3D case... there is also the issue of how it will fit. Normally, I don't care if a case is a little too big for a phone since it will hold it anyway, but all of my previous phones didn't have sensitive parts like the camera sticking out so much before, if I were to get a case, id want one designed to hold the pushed-out camera in place too.... but that would only work if I decide not to get a case that ads bulk for the purpose of keeping the cameras flush with the back of the phone.... and if I do decide to go with a back-cover to add bulk, will those pouch-cases then even still hold the phone or will it then be too thick?
Sigh... I'm over-complicating things aren't I? So anyway, any ideas? Its a shame those back-covers that increase the size of the phone can't make use of that size, such as storing a slightly higher capacity battery or something.
That first one's badass. I wonder how much coverage you get on the front. I ordered two slide together ones (like the innocase surface, but a clone), and one super-silicone one. I like buying a bunch of different colored cases to shake things up every now and then.

where is the case with the kickstand?
I went yesterday to a sprint store and got me a otterbox commuter case. I love it. They had about 4 different kinds but none with a kickstand. They also had the car dock as well.
TPU case for me. Ordered a few weeks ago from ebay, $4 shipped.

I got the case that Best Buy sells with a kick stand. It's 2-piece, kickstand, soft-touch, protects well. Very streamline. It costs too much ($40.00) but I had some reward points and ended up getting it for free. Love it!
Hmph, just terrific. To complicate matters, that hardshell case I posted isn't even available until July 13 apparently.... and nobody is showing that it looks like from the front...
I guess I should just at the minimum get a belt-clip pouch for now. Does anyone know of any good horizontal ones that were specifically designed for the Evo 3D instead of just general cases that roughly fit a phone of that shape?
Does anyone know a good case with a kick stand? The most important features are just the kickstand and thinness. I know Casemate makes a great one, but it's way too thick.
This one seems okay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/TPU-FoldOut...ccessories&hash=item2eb8015e60#ht_2188wt_1163
But I'd have to make a slight modification for the microphone, and most importantly, I don't know if it will fit. I'm quite weary of any of these cases that can fit both the international and ATT versions.
I bought my GS2 on launch day and ATT had 4 different cases in the store. Case Mate was the only one offered with a kick stand but it felt cheap so I opted not to get it. There was a nice leather case but none of them fit the phone, lol. Guess those will be sent back.

I bought this today instead of the leather case...
Its definitely not as bulky as I thought it would be (previous experience with the thrill and infuse pop cases) and the kickstand works great!
It also fits real nicely. The leather case seemed a little too tight and that it would require some effort to put in properly

I've had this for about 3 days now. I think its called Minisuit
Pros: Thin, light, tight fit, good kickstand, cheap, quick delivery
Cons: no hole for secondary mic, generic micro usb rechargers have trouble given cutout (stock cable works fine)
Happy enough with it for now.

I was considering that one, but hard cases are more difficult to cut the mic opening.
ny gs2 doesn't say Samsung or att on front.... only says galaxy S on back cover... is that supposed to be like that
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
Ok, I got the case.
Doesn't fit 100%.
The bottom in particular, but it's barely noticeable. The top mic needs to be cut out some more, which shouldn't be too difficult since it's not plastic.
Case actually looks a lot better than I expected. The kickstand is very flimsy, which I expected. Once you put the stand up, don't put any pressure on it. It's very likely to just snap off. The power button becomes pretty stiff, too.
They also ran out of minisuit keychain screen cleaners. They said if I want one, email them about how I feel my order is "incomplete without one," and they'll send one when they have more stock.
Kind of a weird way to make us word it.
Either way, I'd recommend this if you need a very sleek and thin case that doubles as a flimsy kickstand.
Just wanted to give you guys and gals a heads up about a new case. It's made by Seidio and looks and feels great on the phone. Adds a bit of bulk to the phone but comes with the holster. I'll try and get some pics up later tonight after the little one goes to bed. It goes for $34. 99 retail. My Best Buy got it in today so they should start being available soon.
Edit... Couple of pictures... Sorry the quality sucks.

The best buy platinum series cases are garbage in my opinion. They're the lowest quality case on the market. They're thick and look cheap. They remind me of the chinese cases they used to mass-produce for the clunkers in the 90s. This is one of Best Buy's most profitable skus in the store, so they hock the hell out of them.
Seriously though, this line is about the worst on the market. They beat the hell out of the back of your phone, and they're so incredibly thick, and have absolutely zero aesthetic charm. There are soooo many better cases and more worthey companies you can support, and get better protection from.

I bet you look like I did in best buy when I tried one on my phone and couldn't get it off. It took a long time and a few sales associates to figure it out.
Use something small and sharp to slide in the minuscule crack along the backside where it joins. Then push that tool down to un-notch it.
That was enough of a PITA for me not to buy the case.

I couldn't disagree any more. The cases are manufactured by Seido which has an excellent reputation online for quality cases. It is their "surface" case rebranded. I will say that the all black color is kind of plain and may not have the "charm" you desire, however I like the simple look. They have felt inside the case to protect the phone from scratching so I'm not sure why you stated it beats up the phone.
To each his own as they say...

this isnt the only case hard to remove. the otterbox cases are just as hard ive had it on 3 different phones the iphone, captivate, and the atrix 4g. u will have just as much trouble and the outside skin covering the hard case on the otterbox will stretch to where it wont stay on. the platinum seidio case i had on my nexus was 10x better than otterbox and the same price and had 3 layers of protection versus 2 for otterbox.
I have had this case for about a month now and love it. I've tried a bunch of cases including the armor shield and I keep coming back to this case. I think its incredibly light and adds almost no bulk. Plus the holster is awesome. The back is a little tricky to get off but after you find the right place to apply pressure to its easy. Took me a few tries but I can unsnap it no problem now. I do like the snap it makes it feel secure.
One note, don't try and put and armor suit on your phone then put it in this case. It will not come back out without some serious prying. I actually am impresses the case is still fully functional with no scratches or anything after I practically had to pry it from the sides of the phone.

I have used Seidio cases/holsters on my smart phones for the last 5 years. On Black Friday, I went to BestBuy and bought 2 case/holster combos for $45. One of these is $49 on the Seidio site. So now, when the holster spring cracks in 6 months, I still have a spare. Quick review.... The case is snug, fits perfectly, has all the correct cutouts, and is secure. And it is easy to get on or off once you get the "feel" for the clip on the back. The holster build quality is the best I have ever had from Seidio. They clearly are improving their product. I have no concerns of it falling off my belt, or popping out of the holster. And it is still easy enough to get the phone out with one hand.
I just got this case/holster at Best Buy today.
I've been a Seidio fan for several years now, this is my 3rd Seidio holster. The previous ones (for HTC Kaiser and HTC Rhodium) didn't require a separate case - they just held the phone "naked". I do like that this case has holes for both the I777 and the international version's placement of the noise-canceling mic.
But ... yeah, it's a bugger to remove the case from the phone until you get the hang of it.
For giggles, I tried out my SGP Neo Hybrid EX bumper case with the Seidio holster - it fits like a glove, so that's another option.
Cool, what kind of screen protector that you have on your phone?
Hey guys can you help me find a case. Here are my needs:
-Low price, nothing ridiculously expensive I'd say under 30 would prefer under 10 but quality cost money sometimes of course
-i don't want a rubber one that doesn't slide in the pocket very well

- good protection for screen and non intrusive on charging ports or buttons and headphone port as I use a large size cable for my cars stereo

Check out "InvisibleShield" by a company called Zagg. There are application videos on youtube...
Thanks for your response but let me rephrase, I want your opinions on what's a good case for my needs if someone owns one that they personally feel meets those or similar needs thats what I want. Thanks for the links I checked threads on different cases but i found that most are bulky for the more hard shell ones that have a tight fit, the thinner ones seem to not fit very flush n be a little loose. I only found one that seems to fit but it interferes with the volume buttons and is not very snug and its the diztronic case. Also I don't like the invisishields from zagg they feel awkward and the corners usually come up and get dirty from my experience with them.

I got it from Diztronic for 8.99 free shipping... living in Quebec.
==> Based on OP, I think you are looking for the same as me. I have a Diztronic, it helps with screen edge and gives a little protection for the screen.
BUT, on my older desire, I got the Melkco Jaka type. 30$, but what a feel!!! very slim, good smells (real leather) and VERY GOOD protection.

I did go with the diztronic actually it's a great case only headphone jack wasn't big enough. I had to widen it but it's only because I have a monster high quality cable for my car.

Go for the d30!!
This case is awesome
Body Glove Amaze 4G Shell w/ Kickstand - Silver
all4cellular has some good pics of it, would post link but i am a n00b
The kickstand is nice, works vertical and horizontal, hard shell snaps on, does not come off easily.
I love this case I got from Ebay it is very strong hardcase, with soft rubber touch...It is very touch and does not disassmble when I dropped it on concrete..
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270855293133&ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:US:1123
Very Very happy with it, happier than many other cases I paid much much for.
Since its so tough its hard to get open and thats why many cases now come with crowbar, My moms did, but It was 15 dollars...so I use hers...I used to use a nail clipper end to just pry open the case (there's a space to stick the crowbar into, I tried using my nails but couldn't get it open and messed up my nails and hurt my finger lol, you need something thats not sharp but shaped like a flathead screw driver to pry it open, this is the case with most hard cases today...I would highly recommend this case.

+1 for the D30 its s great case. Good protection, fits snug, and doesn't interfere with and of the buttons or ports
screw cases, htc doesnt mind replacing the device once you tell them you not happy with it+they replace every accessory once, so even if u scratch, dent the backplate you can still get a new one for free
I've recently started to get back into running and I was wondering is there an armband case out yet that would keep it strapped to my arm or another area so I could listen to music/run GPS/tracking apps?
I got this arm band and use it pretty much every day. http://www.iarmbands.com/Arm-Band-Armband-for-HTC-EVO-4G-LTE-cab-evo4gLTE.htm?categoryId=-1
It's a tight fit and makes me take my case off and even then it's hard to get the top flap over the top of the phone. It works but isn't great. There are other threads already in this forum about arm bands. Search for it.

I got a lot of use out of that same one with my OG Evo, but I'm a bit more concerned about keeping my LTE dry, since I sweat buckets when I run. I'm thinking of giving this one a try, even though it's a bit pricier.

I don't know if you're interested in a waist belt instead, but I just got a nice simple one that works awesome. (Awesomely?) It's called a SPIbelt, it's just a thin pocket with a waistband, basically, and it zips closed. I use it with my Rocketfish RF- MAB2 bluetooth headphones (which are outstanding, by the way) and I have no complaints. I can put the belt around my shorts' waistband to keep it off my body for sweat protection. It is thin, so it won't provide much on its own. But it's comfortable and doesn't bounce at all, huge plus for me. And it fits even inside my TPU case, and would probably work even with a bigger case because it has some stretch to it.
I can't stand arm bands personally, so this is the only way to go for me.
I almost got a Tune Belt, they make one waist belt that fits I hear, the iP4 I think. But I found this at a store where I had a gift card, so I went with it. It was $20, not cheap, but cheap compared to most anything else out there. If I do upgrade it will be to the Tune Belt just so I have access to the screen without opening the case.
