Accessories arm band, or case for running

rabernet that are great cases. Amzer Silicone Skin Jelly Case is a great option for those who are looking as a great protection for their HTC phone. They are made up of durable material and won't be teared unless one cut with blade or anything such like blade.
 
I'm looking for the same thing.

Currently I have a running jacket that you can put the phone/music player in your upper sleeve, and then there's a hole that goes inside your sleeve and you can connect your headphones up to your ears inside the jacket. I love it, because it keeps everything close and no wires get exposed. However now that it's finally feeling like summer, I don't want to wear the coat! So the hunt begins for an armband or a runner's pouch (ugh) to carry it in.

I ride & train horses for a living, so there's a lot of "bouncing" around, if you know what I mean. The best thing I've found is a FuelBelt pouch with a belt clip. The clip is REALLY secure; in fact, it takes a bit of force to remove it from my waist band. I forget what size I got, but it fits the Dinc really well with some room to spare if you have bulky cases/batteries.

The pouch also comes with belt loops instead of a clip, but I didn't want to have to wear a belt all the time.
 
I bought the Belkin DualFit armband for the iphone model number F8Z610TT and I can get the phone halfway in if i take the case and the back off the phone. Guess I'll keep looking...
 
Arkon has an armband that fits with the Dinc:

Here it is with the Nexus One:

I just got this one for $8 shipped. I'm using it with the extended battery (no case) and it squeezes in nice and tight. The home and search buttons are blocked but menu and back are barely able to be used. Most of the screen is visible except the status bar at the top is blocked. Haven't tried running with it yet but walking this morning it was fine.
 
i use this:

Nathan Shadow Pak Runners Pack with built-in I.D. card

picked it up at a Dick's Sporting Goods like a month ago. works great for me. i generally run 3-6 miles at a time and this synches down nice and tight around my waste. the phone doesnt bounce, etc. im one to make playlists for my activites so i dont mess with the phone/music player much when im running. you most certainly do NOT have fast access to the phone or screen on the go but for me i like having it under my shirt and up close to my waist so it doesnt annoy me or my arms :)

I'm no a huge waist pack kind of girl, but this actually looks really good. Found it on amazon for like 14 bucks. Will give it a shot! Thanks!
 
Im going to try the Arkon looks like it will work with the HTC "

  • For larger sized “super phones” such as the HTC EVO 4G and Incredible, and Motorola Droid X, the top flap will NOT cover the phone. However, these larger phones will fit inside the SM-ARMBAND pocket with just a small portion extending outside the protective pouch. This may not be ideal, but is considered acceptable for most consumers."
 
I need an armband but I found that clipping the phone in front of my legs helps out a lot(keeps it from really pulling down my shorts); only two of my shorts have working draw-strings.
