I just got mine for my 8900 and while I really like the case it is giving me grief.
My alt button was behaving oddly. I could not lock the #s on with alt/shift. I could not access Event log or Active Apps because the both utilize the Alt button to activate them.
With the case off it all worked. With the silicone part one it all worked. With the plastic shell on the problem started again.
After messing with it I determined that the plastic shell is pushing the silicone and depressing the volume button slightly. For some reason this caused the alt key problems. There needs to be a slight cavity over the volume button inside of the silicone cover.
I tried removing some of the material with an exacto blade and it solved the problem! I managed to detatch half of the silicone button off of the body in the process which kind of bums me out!
I really like the whole concept of this case and would like to use it and not have felt like I threw my money away but I need my phone to work properly.
Maybe I will just go ahead and cut the entire volume button out of the silicone so it wont be flapping and I can still use the case.
