If you buy the combo, the holster will work with other cases but not with the naked phone. The premise of this topic was wanting a holster for use with one of the other cases. I've used the holster with the snap on cases here as well as the tpu cases. With the snap on, it's still tight enough to not go anywhere, but not as snug as it is with the innocase or tpu case.

I was thinking of doing this for my wifes phone (she doesnt want the clip, i thought i would take an extra), but it seemed to me they sold two different clips, one for with the case installed and one for without...so if you buy the combo and remove the case, the clip may not properly hold the phone, no???

I just received my seidio holster (innocase) last night. With the ebay clear snap on case, there is NOT a match. The phone has about 3/16" of play so the phone rattles and is not safe to be so loose. I thought it would be tighter based on your recommendation but not close. To claim it "fits" is not correct.

The phone was still very secure due to the spring clip on top applying pressure. You can even add a simple piece of foam, like the little squares to cushion the bottom of things and firm it up more. But I didn't bother since I went to the tpu case and then back to the innocase. The little motion didn't bother me. The bottom corners were secure and the top spring clip kept it in place.

Are you saying the tpu case is snug in the innocase holster and the ebay (barely fit style) is not?? I am trying to decide what to do.

The TPU cases fit just as well as the Innocase in the holster. The ultra thin snap on cases (not to be mistaken for the two piece snap together cases) have the slightest of play left and right and about 2-3mm of play up top at the spring clasp. Since there is no case going over the top edge it has some front to back movement there which can easily be tightened up by a small piece of self stick foam along the inside back of the clasp. It didn't bother me as I knew the phone wasn't going anywhere while locked in.

Not trying to revive a somewhat old thread, but I couldn't find my answer anywhere else.

For the red ebay cases that this thread was first made about, has anyone found a way to remove the red stain that transfers to the battery cover? I know it's been talked about here, but no solution has been brought to light yet.
