I´m using this ones since long time and work for me very good: http://www.boxwave.com/products/categories/screen_protectors.htm
Also know about this ones:http://proporta.com/search.php?q=protector+de+pantalla
Hope it helped,

I'm using Bodyguardz, and have been very impressed by both the quality and customer service. Invisible Shield's are good too, and I've used them before, but the Bodyguardz beat them in my opionion.
http://www.bodyguardz.com

I have used bodyguardz on my TP and invisible shield on my Tilt. I liked bodyguardz better since they actually give you 2 sets of full body protectors. also, the invisible shield version of the Tilt had a horrible fit. Also, I recommend using a different protector for the screen itself (I used the one that came in the box). the ones that come with bodyguardz and IS ruin the feel of the Touch Screen. In my opinion, it makes the screen have a slight rubbery feel to it. I also find, that response isn't as good. However, it BG protects the restof teh device pretty well.

I've been using the ones from boxwave since I got an axim x51v. Last time I ordered something from them, they never shipped it
I was considering the invisible shield, but it sounds like bodyguards is worth a shot.

I'd stay away from the Invisibile shield. The touch feels very rubbery, I threw it away the first week.
I've read some good reviews on Martin fields.

I already got the bodyguardz. Haven't got a chance to put it on the phone yet. You have to spray some stuff on it before applying to the phone, and they recommend not using it for 24 hours after applying. They can't be serious, how the hell am I not gonna use my fuze for a day? I'm sure i'll find a way to eventually, or the bodyguardz will sit in the top of my closet collecting dust.

i got the boxwave crystal clear. imo its pretty dang good, super clear, easy to apply, no bubbles...if you like the one that came with the fuze this one is like it. possibly more slippery i dont remember but really good. only thing is i paid for 3-5 day shipping and according to usps they got it the next day but the thing didnt get to my doorstep till 13 days later

What probably happened was the shipper printed a label and by doing so notified the Postal Service it was ready for to be shipped. However, that doesn't always mean the shipper ships it out the same day.

I have been using this protector I bought on Ebay... I bought a 3 pack back in January and still only using the 1st protector. I use my Fuze a lot and this protector is not peeling back or anything. Here is the link:

Has anyone ever tried these screen protectors?

Ran a search but for some reason it doesn't seem anyone has ever tried these...
http://www.thepocketsolution.com/PSI-42588.html?gclid=CPeS1r25xZMCFSQtagodiEn8Cw
Wanted to get some feedback by members on this forum before purchasing. What do you guys think? Will "static attachment" mess up the screen in any way?
screen protector
you dont have a screen protector on your phone?? it shouldve came with your phone unless you got it else where. better get these
well i screwed up the one that came wit it by trying to get it perfectly on the screen, so after ripping it out over and over again i kept gettin dust on it, so i threw it away and for now i put that original one back that has the pictures on it and shows you how to tilt ur phone? u know the one that comes on it when its brand new wit "warnings" and stuff...
either way...i am about to purchase either the "Expert Shield" or the pocket solution ones and i am tryin to get some feedback on the pocket solution ones first before purchasing. as for now, i have my phone on "baby mode" and am leaving it at home
geez...no one?
Expert Shield all the way. Don't even second guess it.
Expert Shield rocks. I have used them for my Tilt and a couple of cameras. You just have be careful putting them on. It is really easy to get dust under it if your not careful. Look on eBay and you can find them for really cheap shipped from either Hong Kong or Canada. Usually around $10 - $12 shipped. They are more expensive here.

+5 to that. i'm using them now on my tilt.
they're thick, yet flexible, have yet to show any wear from the stylus, & they haven't appeared to affect the touch sensitivity either.
It's been said by someone here that the Expert Shield protectors are just as good as the Martin Fields. He ruined one of his Martin Fields and I told him to try out ES and he said it was great.
They're a lot cheaper also.

PSP Screen protector
I'm using a Hiro PSP Screen protector (cut into size) covers 99.9% of the screen almost same thickness as with martin fields, but at a fraction of the price
It also doesn't affect screen sensitivity.

I bought an Expert Shield and am VERY happpy with it. You're dead on about the dust thing and I'll add fingerprints to that list.
I did discover is that you can remove it and wash the sticky side off with warm water and a clean finger. Then pat dry lightly with lint free cloth for eye glasses. It will it go right back on just like new!!!! I did this three times in a row for fingerprints and dust that was bugging me.
Great product!!!
i would strongly recommend http://www.zagg.com/ Invisible sheild

I'm using them, and they are ok for the money. There are better ones out there like the others are stating. But for 5 bucks, not a bad buy at all.
Also try Boxwave's ClearTouch, It's a bit pricey but man... after 2 month with this thing stick on my screen, it didn't even get a single scratch on it, hard as a rock! Also perfect fit. It's also washable and after wash it with soap and put it back on to your screen it looks like brand new... Well worth the money.
Link here.
Someone here linked them before I bought them and they are garbage. They are a pain in the ass to put on the first one I put on didnt cover enough of the screen and anything off of your fingers stays on there and its very hard to clean you have to use water. Mircofiber cloth wasnt good enough. Within two weeks it bubbled up and I had to trash the 1st one. The 2nd one that came in the pack was too big and it was also did not fit well. Oh yea
I dont recommend them.
Lifetime Shield
Invisible Shield. Thats the one.
Lifetime shield
The invisible shield does have a different feel to it, but its nothing thats a show stopper. The company is good for its work, they have already replaced one due to the lack of a camera opening for my tytn 2.

Clear Coat HTC Touch Pro Fully Body Protection?

to be honest, when i cant find any other reviews... then suddenly theres a really positive review, that makes me really skeptical...
and yes, it is this EXACT same review makes me skeptical about this product lol
Sounds like
http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=88113-74130-PFW486&lpage=none
That's the stuff I used in my bathroom to frost my windows... I got it wet and slid it on.. used a squeegee and flattened it all out and 3 years later is is still sticking there.
The difference is that this is
1.) Clear
2.) Cut into the proper shape (you could do this yourself with some measuring but it saves hassle)
3.) the squeegee is probably smaller.
My bathroom windows are in a VERY humid environment... I have never had ANY peeling.
However I don't keep my bathroom windows in my pocket... so I don't know if the corners will peel up.
My main point is that for $24 of this "film" to cover a TINY phone... you can buy the same thing for $18 that would cover 10 phones... if the product works fantastic... the profit margin for them is HUGE. If it doesn't work... it's the biggest rip off ever.
See if Gila makes a clear one... get $18 worth and tinker away.

Since you've had the Fuze already... Is the shape exactly the same as the TP? It looks like sprints version is a little more round along the corners. I'd Like to go ahead and purchase one of these for the Fuze but don't want to have to send it back.

The only difference I noticed when seeing the 2 up next to each other was the shape of the speaker hole on the back, that might be enough to throw the protection off. Ask Raspster about it more, he had both the European and the Fuze at the same time, so he could tell you better than I could.
I got one, just to try it out.
Exactly as described above. Its a bit fiddly getting on but once on, it sticks very well.
Its great at sticking to flat surfaces, not so good on curves. And they don't even try and cover the corners on the device, which I would think are the places I'd want protected if I was to drop it.
The texture makes the back look very different from normal; its much nicer without the cover on. On the front, you can't really see the cover at all; edges are perfectly aligned with the phones edges.
The back and the front of the phone are covered very well. Sides not so great. Corners not at all. Front looks good. Back looks crap.
My opinion, its no way worth $24
just got mine on Friday exactly as it's described, protects almost every part of the phone with their cut out plastic shield, however as mentioned in earlier post... doesn't really cover the edges, all in all... does really stick and so far looks pretty ok with the exception of little bubbles within the shield (poor application technique)

Hi Marcel808,
Is it easy to peel it off without tearing the phone's original casing? Especially the back cover. I just ordered mine, hope it arrives soon.

I have used the Zagg's products (formerly Invisible Shield) on my 6800, 6700, wifes Centro and even custom ordered for my Pioneer 6800DVD in my car. I really like the product, the service is second to none... That said, I think since I have used the product and know how it performs in pockets, and how to install correctly (installed dozens of shields for myself, family and friends), I may try this new product.
Screen protection has always been great and flat surfaces (side) great as well but the corners usually give way, slide and start to bubble after about 4 months of heavy in and out of the pocket use.
This is a $24 experiment begging to happen.... now if Sprint would just release the damn phone!
I would also like to know this. Can it be removed again without leaving marks on the phone?
How scratch proof is it really?
Because of the lack of info on the site (still no video's on how to apply the thing, their forum is just about empty and they don't reply to customer questions...) they really don't seem to thrustworthy ...

I would get the one released by Zagg. They offer a lifetime replacement on all products and they will replace it no questions I know. Their stuff is nearly impossible to scratch and I TRIED just about everything to scratch it. All phones full covers are $25. Never had any bubbling issues with Zagg's products.
yes it can easily be removed without any mark left at all....I found the cover started to collect dusk a lot (it must be slightly sticky) so I removed it.

Trust me, I know oh too well the replacement process and have replaced and installed many over the last 5 years.
The fact that I know the Zagg product so well, makes the experiment more interesting. I know the Zagg stuff so well that I will know if this Clear Coat stands a chance AND since it's only $25... It might turn out to be junk, the company could not stand behind the guarantee BUT we'll see.
*Update
Just got my phone yesterday and I just ordered the Clear Coat. I'll install and do a little initial write up. I'll order the Zagg shield when it becomes available and do a comparison.
It's only money and it IS a $700 device.... (but I only paid $250 for it)
Stay tuned guys.
**Update
Just ordered a Zagg full body shield at 40% off as they just got them and were doing a Halloween special I guess. I should have the Cleat Coat on Mon/Tues and the Zagg will probably be here the week after. I think I'll install the Clear Coat first, use it for a week or so and then install the Zagg and do the same.

Screen Protector Recommendations?

My T-Mobile HD2 is in the mail - expect to get it Thursday. Sold my Fuze on ebay immediately after visiting the T-Mobile store. Have used Clarivues, Boxwaves but anyone have any experience with either on this phone - especially cutout and fit for the entire glass surface? Also anyone get either a Bodyguardz or InvisibleShield?
Zagg InvisibleShield is good.

I bought the crystal Boxwave screen protector and I like it. Even though on the website it says the screen is for the TMO version of the HD2, I have a feeling they're just shipping out the original HD2 screen protector; the screen protector is off by 1-2mm at the top. I don't mind though, the gap is negligible.
I have the full body invisishield on my HD2 and I use the stock rubber case that comes with the phone, and I really like it.
Things I've noticed:
The glass is a lot easier to clean as compared to the plastic cover.
The glass is easier (not lots, but noticeable) to slide your finger across.
There is a little more glare (once again, not a lot)
The awesome metal feel is gone (it would be gone if you had any cover, so really not an issue)
BUT! I had my iPhone 3G covered since day one and it is almost scratch free. You wouldn't know that it is almost 2 years old and lived in a pocket, so yeah. If you want to preserve your device and sell it in a couple of years as nearly perfect condition, I'd go for the full invisishield. If you want to have an awesome device that you'll probably just give to a little brother in a year, don't get the cover.
my 2 cents
p.s. just to make sure, I'm happy with my invisishield!
Im really happy with the INVISIBLEshield. had it on since 2nd week jan and really chuffed. Feels nice, seems to help with the screen sensitivity, but not enough to slow it down, and even though i dont use any case (full body zagg kit) there isn't even a faint scratch on it anywhere.
One corner has peeled away less than 1 millimeter where it slides into my pocket, BUT i mounted that corner badly anyway. (First panel applied)
Everywhere else its so snug it could be directly applied.
I have the screen sleeve provided by T-Mobile retailers... and the Body Glove transparent hard case w/ the kick stand on it.
But really, any screen protector will work out if put on correctly.
Thanks for the replies.
I contacted Martin Fields this afternoon and they were the most responsive. Actually measured their screen protectors and it is 1.5 or 2 mm too short for the Tmobile version - Based on measurements I took with micrometer they'll modify their specs and issue a full screen protector for the TMobile. Have used Clarivues (a little thick) and Boxwaves which I prefer - will see if they respond.
Honestly, in my experience the tmobile screen protectors sold at the stores have been awesome.
I have ghost armor (same if not better than invisible shield) on my blackberry, and they are good but still finger prints galore.
The tmobile ones sold in store are anti-smear. I clean my screen like after the whole day. It makes it a little bit fuzzy, and i mean a little like after you don't see your fingerprints after one use you'll love it and not even care.

I bought the InvisibleShield last night. Chose the cheap shipping, so I don't expect it in for a week or so.
In the meantime, I intend to try out the Saran Wrap® option that so many iPhone users have sworn by

I second that notion.
T-Mobile retail stores are always known for providing reliable products... at least from my location. My manager prides himself on that, so we do what we can to always have quality as opposed to quantity, especially when it comes to device accessories.
I put a skinomi skin on and love it, no bubbles, streaks, blemishes... lifetime guarantee as well. Fits perfect on my T-Mobile HD2
I bought the one from a Tmo store, I think it's the HTC branded one. It's real nice, although my screen protector does have scratches on it already from being in my pocket, but I'd rather have that than scratches on my actual screen.

Case for the EVO??

I have been looking around for accessories for the EVO, I preordered mine already, but want to have a case and screen protector on it.
I don't want to take a chance with this thing.
I came across this website which has many skins, and rubberized cases, but am hesitant to order, because I did a search on google, and on another android forum website everyone was giving them bad review, like poor communication, 3+weeks for the item to ship.
Plus they don't use paypal.
If anyone knows a reliable place selling cases please post a link or PM me, and here is the link for anyone who may want to order, also if you have ordered let me know how it went.
thanks

Go on the left and click HTC Evo 4g, then choose cases and all the available ones are their.
Yeah I have been looking myself. It scares me to not have this stuff before I pick my phone up..Normally when I open a new phone there is some kind of plastic already on the screen. Its usually not to pretty but I'll have no choice but to leave it on till I get a screen protector.
Since I don't really see myself slapping this baby on the side of my pants I am trying to find some type of gel body glove or something so I can still put it in my pocket and not add too much bulk.
http://www.htc-evo-cases.com/Snap-On-Crystal-Hard-HTC-Evo-Case-1727.html
I have found only that one so far..
Only problem with that snap on case (which doesn't sound TOO bad) is that it wouldn't ship out until June 21st, 17 days after the Evo comes out... That's 17 days worth of heavy phone usage to get through without a scratch!!!
Something I've always trusted is the InvisibleShield from ZAGG. I have had it on my ipod touch since day 1 and it's pretty good stuff...
http://www.zagg.com/invisibleshield/htc-evo-4g-cases-screen-protectors-covers-skins-shields.php

ahh thanks for the heads up...those links you gave me do you know if they feel sticky? I hope that makes sense but since I am putting it in my front pocket I dont want it to keep getting caught on the inside of my pocket.
I am confused...those links you gave me are screen protectors?
I'm trying to find like a silicone case for the outside of the phone not the screen.
i hate cases, like my phone naked. going to be looking for a good cheap holster (?leather) for my belt. suggestions?

Apparently I am lost! Does anyone have any info on actual cases? People keep talking about freakin screen protectors! Am I in the wrong topic?
I've clear skinned my last 3 phones (Mogul, Touch Pro, Nexus 1). IMO, it's the best way to protect your phone and still have the "naked" look. Why add bulk and/or hide these beauties with a case? I've dropped each one of them atleast once without ever getting a scratch.
I personally feel a screen protector isnt needed. I got bubbles on the N1 screen protector due to poor installation on my part, so I removed it and haven't looked back since. These screens are very durable and hard to scratch if you use common sense.
The key to a good skin install is follow the instructions and take your time.

I've clear skinned my last 3 phones (Mogul, Touch Pro, Nexus 1). IMO, it's the best way to protect your phone and still have the "naked" look. Why add bulk and/or hide these beauties with a case? I've dropped each one of them atleast once without ever getting a scratch.
I personally feel a screen protector isnt needed. I got bubbles on the N1 screen protector due to poor installation on my part, so I removed it and haven't looked back since. These screens are very durable and hard to scratch if you use common sense.

Yes, what we are talking about are protective skins. They are clear cases that go on your phone and protect it without adding all the bulk that comes with a big hard case

thank you for clarifying that..i honestly thought everyone was talking about screen protectors..
zagg's product is a screen protector AND has something that fits se seamlessly around the rest of your phone. It is sort of grippy (a little) so it doesn't slip into your pocket extremely easily, but they are nice -not great with a stylus though, b/c, like i said, a bit grippy.
this product was originally designed for military helicopters to cover their blade tips to prevent damage. pretty heavy duty stuff...you barely see it on there, but if you drop your phone, it primarily will keep it scratch free -spotless really. only problem is, it barely protects against impact like other bigger cases might. But its nearly impossible to scratch, nic or chip your phone.
2 things I'm looking for, and hopefully they do it right this time. A sedio front facing belt clip for the evo and an extended battery. what they've ****ed up in the past is making one not compat with the other....
I really want the extended battery experience while at the same time having it being able to snap into my belt like I'm someone god damn important =P
lol that's all I got.

Skinomi TechSkin (screen protector) owners, - a question for you

So I'm interested in this screen protector, as it offers edge to edge protection along with some other features I like:
amazon.com/Skinomi-TechSkin-Protector-Lifetime-Warranty/dp/B009W6C3YO/ref=cm_cmu_pg__header - sorry cant link yet due to post requirements.
However, as I'm in the UK its not available to me. I've searched everywhere for it, they just dont sell it here at-all.
In desperation I turned to a friend who lives in the US, and asked him if he could order it to him first, then ship it to me.
So, my question to you Skinomi owners:
What are the dimensions of the box the screen protector comes in? I know the shipping weight (3.8 oz), but the dimensions are no-where to be found on the web. I've looked on the USPS website for shipping rates to the UK, and if it can fit in a "large" envelope and weighs 3.8 oz, then I'm only paying $4 for shipping, which is good. But if it cant, I'm looking at $70+ just for shipping :S
Description of the large envelope:
Other than rolls: Max. length 24", max length, height and depth (thickness) combined 36"
Rolls: Max. length 36". Max length and twice the diameter combined 42"
Help please?
Edit, for mods;
The question when posting this thread was "Is this a question?"
Though this is a question, its not directly linked to a Q&A of a nexus 4, thus not wanting to be posting a accessories question in the nexus Q&A, I posted here. Sorry if I'm wrong, feel free to move the thread as you wish mods. :good:
I've still got my box, even though I don't use the Skinomi anymore (ended up with a Spigen). Here you go.
4 3/8" x 7 1/8" x 1"
Approximately.
Why you don't order this from eBay or directly from Skinomi website??

I just got it from eBay, thanks for the idea - its still shipping from the US but I only paid $9 for postage with an estimate of 12 days :good:
I bought a tech skin for my phone and tablet from amazon.com. you can have an account with a UK address. It was cheaper from skinomi on Amazon than through there own site. Also only took around 4 days to arrive. I think in total it was $20 or so delivered to the UK.

I have one on the way. I'm excited to get it and be able to protect my screen. I hope it is as good as they say.

I got mine 5 days ago from CA (I'm in the UK), the protector does feel good (not too rubbery), though it doesn't have a high quality finish as MediaDevil has, plus it does peal with my BALLISTIC case, I did get around this with six 1mm sellotape rectangles, their barley visible, and they keep the protector from pealing on the edges. Overall an alright product, I definitely overpaid, but with lifetime warranty, I might make a clam soon.
I used Skinomi on my HTC Sensation before I discovered Best Skins Ever, BSE are much better - they're much less resistive to touch (feel almost like glass) and they do a case optimised version which leaves a small gap around the edges so cases/bumpers won't lift the protector, or a full version which fits to the edges.
I do like the packaging of Skinomi and the premium cloth and squeegee it comes with though.
Mines come tomorrow and I'll leave a comment on its quality, etc.
I hope my seidio case comes too.
Pros: Self-healing that actually works..
Cons: Everything else.
Think I might just go with "Just like glass"
Mine came in today but I'm waiting to install it till tomorrow night. Gotta work tomorrow
So I installed it and it's okay. I'm keeping it because I paid fifteen bucks for it and I don't want to run rawdog without one. I have never liked screen protectors. My gnex had one on it when I bought it and I couldn't stand it. I ended up removing it. It was a zagg I think.
I think I'll buy one of the tempered ones soon.
Just not all that impressed.

You should check out "Just like glass" I'm considering ordering from them. They look amazing.
Well after my Skinomi needs replacing that is... Seems like never, it just keeps healing itself. Heh
They sent me an extra for doing a review on Amazon. Pretty good of them.

Keep your fingers wet. Do it in a hot steamy bathroom to minimize dust.
Follow the included instructions.
I've got one of these. Imo, they are easier to apply than other dry application screen protectors I've purchased in the past. And come with a neat microfiber cloth. I also enjoy the textured protector for the back of the device. It came with pieces to cover the sides, top, and bottom too but those weren't so simple to make use of unfortunately.

Wow thanks, that's a great idea. I'll be utilizing that when I replace the one I've got on there now.

Just get a BSE, they're cheaper, better and deliver to the UK. Trust me, I've tried pretty much every wet apply screen protector there is over the past couple of years
This screen protector is a total pos! It is constantly peeling off. & stretching
Back side does not stay sticky
Also every where my case is touching it. It had faded to a matte finish.
I would try to get some pics later today.
I think I will stick with Zagg.
