I depend upon being able to feel vibration alerts. Does anyone have experience with using vibration alerts with the S4 in this case and holstered? TY!

I keep mine on my shirt and feel it all the time. I'm not sure if you will be able to if you place it on your belt. I know my husband had problems when he did on his belt. But not when it was on his waistband. So from the both of us you are in go mode. BTW he changed back from his previous case for just that reason.

No problems with vibration from the holster. You should be able to feel it just fine as the holster and clip are well put together and sturdy enough to transfer the vibration well.

I have no experience with this issue. I returned the product, as I was not satisfied.

i never wore the clip and could not feel the vibrations when the phone was in my pocket, never tried without the case, but i was surprised every time i took it out of my pocket. Also the kickstand broke off very early and the side of the case is now cracked. i will be looking for a new case for this phone.

Yes, I've noticed this model will occasionally lose the bluetooth connection to my Galaxy S4. It happened maybe a dozen times the first week but steadily improved to once or twice a week by week 3, so I'm hoping it is just something like a break in period. Never had this experience with any other Plantronic bluetooth headset.

I don't remember this devise having the option of only using the vibrate sensors. If I remember correctly the vibrating is a warning to the dog to stop barking and if the dog continues to ignore the vibrating the shock comes afterward. My husband tried the collar on himself to be sure it wasn't to harsh. He said it was very much like getting a good static shock. It mostly gets your attention with a split second of mild discomfort. I'm sure your dogs personality plays a part also. Different dogs will react differently.

Yes. It is very easy to disable the audible alert, leaving just the vibration.

I'm not sure if this will answer your question, a) because the 4G one I bought several months ago has yet to break and need replacement and b) my experience is with a different model- my previous Incredible (original, non-4G) Otterbox Defender cases I have owned had belt clips break on me when mine was still within the one year warranty, and they honored replacing it by sending me an entire new unit, including a new cell phone cover and new belt clip.

Update: I just tried laying on the device under the heaviest parts of my back. It worked just fine, and the wheels did not make the clacking that makes it sound like the device is straining.I don't think that I'd use it that way myself, however. The ball-like things inside were really uncomfortable on my back due to the amount of pressure at those points. (I wasn't very careful where I placed them during the experiment.) I'd have no such concerns about using it in Vibrate mode while laying on it.

Hey, I have this case and I love it. At first it seemed like it didn't and I was bummed but over time it seemed to start reading the phone all the time and not being so touchy, charging my phone perfectly. Idk whether its because the case over time formed to the phone tighter or what but works good. I love the case just remember it sucks to take off and on.

Does this case snap on? Well, yes, but don't expect an audible, 'Plastic' sounding click. This case has a snug fit, and you can feel it 'snap' into place, but since the case is semi flexible you won't hear it. Rest assured though, that the case will stay in place until you WANT to take it off. Hope this helps.

I have some small barely noticeable rub marks where the top clip touches the protective cover. They don't bother me at all. It's a good tradeoff because my phone has never fallen out of the holster. Pull the trigger already.

No, not that I have noticed. I am pretty sensitive regarding sound, formally being a professional vocalist. Sound is extremely important to me. This was a concern when I ordered the case but from what I have been able to detect, the sound has not been affected on my Galaxy Note 3.

I unclip from my belt to answer. Phone goes in and out easily and I can hear it ring. Yes on both.

Actually I don't even use the belt clip part. It's uncomfortable, but I carry it just fine just like you plan to. Just make sure you purchase screen protectors. Other than that for the money I love it. I even dropped my phone more than a few times and no harm done.Hope this helped

I was putting it in the holster when I first got it and it was switched to the shock function. I had the tip of the holster in the palm of my hand and it discharged in the holster. It was a pretty good jolt through thru the webbing. I don't know if would stop someone in their tracks but the sound and the jolt I got would have made me think twice about taking someone on that had one.

My S4 is in a slim case so I haven't had a problem with the armband depressing the buttons but I have to use some pressure to get the phone in the case and I have a tendency to hold the phone where the buttons are. I'm getting better at remembering to push the phone in from the top instead of holding the top sides.

I didn't find any issues with pressing the buttons. My overall concern was with how fast the case ripped and wore out. Maybe it's a result of pressing the buttons? If you are looking for a long term case I'd pass on this one until they make it more robust.

I don't use a case with my S4 Active, but if I did I doubt it would fit or at least not without a lot of stretching and working it into the case every time you use it. Me personally, I wouldn't want to spend that much effort before and especially after a run when I'm all sweaty.

I honestly never had an issue. The case it not really made for protection as much as it is for looks, feel and functionality. I have two cases and love them.
