Hi guys, looking to get a screen protector for my M500,
i heard these normally come in the box? my mate who has the T-Mobile version of the magician said that he goes his in the box?
What are your experiences with screen protectors and where did you buy yours from?
i bought my imate jam from dubai, didnt come with a screen protector in the box, was expecting to get one here in the US but cant find teh right size in any stores so now i have 2 options, order it online or buy a universal one that you cut out to the shape of the screen
Screen Protectors
Why buy a screen protector whynot make lots of them
use an A4 sheet of overhead projector acetate and cut
to the size of your PDA screen and add an extra 1/4" to
each end and tuck it under the screen ends. When its
dirty etc...just cut another one ! :idea:
the screen protector that came with my mda compact was of very bad quality compared to the one I was using on my former HP 6310, which I got from Proporta.com.
So I ordered one for the jam and its great. It is washable, anti reflective, scratchresistent and responsive to stylus action. Their sevice is great also. They even include a sac of english breakfast tea in the shipment.
so go for it.
I am using martin fields, I am not an expert in this, but i get alot of positive review on it and the expert rate it 9/10. maybe u can check it at www.overlayplus.com and see what u think
thanks for the help guys,
ended up going for the martin fields one!
just ordered it off eBay for £8.50! not bad at all!
eBay Auction Info: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5800092770
let you know when i recieve it!
I have always been a Martin Fields fan, but lately it seems to me they are not that durable anymore?
Less than a month ago I replaced my protector and there's already scratch marks over each individual letter on the virtual keyboard. I don't write enough for that to be acceptable, so I will soon be looking for another brand
http://www.expansys-usa.com have lots of accessories for the JAM. I've ordered a screen protector from the UK version.
Screen protectors
I can recommend Brando Ultra Clear protectors - they are durable and very very clear. $USD13 inc shipping.

FYI Just noticed that the TyTN II screenprotectors have become available on shop.brando.com.hk
I read somewhere that TyTn I screen protector would not fit the TyTn II. Both screens are 2.8 inches yet the TyTn II is about a mm shorter. I don't know how far this is true as yet I do not have the TyTn II. But if this is true than one must be absolutely sure that a protector specifically designed for TyTn II is procured. Just a not of caution.

The TyTN screen indeed is slightly bigger, but the p3300 screen actually has exactly identical dimensions. My hunch is that is what Brando has done.
I'm wondering whether I should get the Brando UltraClear or wait for Martin Fields to release one for the TyTn II.
Martin Fields have always been my first choice for screen protectors (two previous Sony Ericsson Phones, PSP, HTC S710, Sony digital camera) as they are very easy to apply and are crystal clear.
The screen protector supplied with the TyTn II in the box is rubbish, lots of bubbles and generally poor. I just hope it doesn't have any sticky adhesive when I take it off to replace it.
Dah... Which one to pick?
Hmm I see that Brando currently has 2 different Screenprotectors available for the Kaiser / TyTN 2
Brando Workshop Ultra Clear and the Brando Workshop Anti-Glare Screen Protectors.
I remember from my Nokia 770 and Palm T|X that I preferred the Anti-Glare ones but for my (now returned) Nokia E90 I had a Ultra clear.
Decisions decisions.
Are there already people who tried either one of these or can make a suggestion?
The price difference is 1$ in favor of Anti-Glare one.

I decided not to wait untill I could figure out what the best would be and ordered the Brando Workshop Ultra Clear Screen Protector (2x).
I'll post my experiences here when I receive them.
For now all my experiences with the Brando stuff has been excellent.

They only came out today, so there's only the user experience from other HTC devices (Touch etc) that could be of help

Yes, of course but what I was after was not specific for the Kaiser but in general the differences between those 2 screen protectors from Brando.
For almost every type of device with a screen Brando produce these slap-on-plastics.
I have experience with both and apart from the cheaper one being a little thicker and less flexible, the other one seems to be better for the colours and transparency.

I'm sorry... do you mean the Ultra Clear is better? Or is the Anti-Glare one better? Also, do you have to cut these to size or what? I like taking my phones apart to put on the screen protectors, looks like they're not there.
I used the Boxwave Ultra-Clear p/n BWCTC-C8125. It fit Kaiser perfectly as well as my 8525. I prefer the glossy protectors over the flat non-glare types,

I mean to say the Ultra Clear is the better one.
although a little bit more difficult to apply than the Anti-Glare one, it does pay of when it's on
I just ordered both the anti-glare and the crystal clear. I'll be sure to give the highlights in this thread when thy arrive.
Given the fact that I use the TyTN II for navigation, and the fact that my car has a panoramic roof, the utraclear is unusable in my case. I Need anti-glare.

Really depends, in my car I found that the non glare screens were harder to see vs the clear. If the clear screen is at a bad angle to you though, it will act like a mirror and also be hard to see. I bought both and played till I got the best viewing, for me it was clear.
How difficult was it to install? ie, With some screen protectors, I have bubbles or fingerprints and then have to clean and reapply, etc.

This time I washed my hands and worked on a lint free cloth. I peeled off the Kaiser's shipping sticker from the display and applied my screen protector by placing it on edge at one side of the screen. Then I carefully let it slowly lay down from that edge, using the applicator card to smooth it. This time, not 1 bubble!
Just received the anti-glare today. Absolutely a perfect fit (even better than the already very close to perfect fit I was accustomed to with Brando).
For me, Brando makes the best screenprotectors, period!
Also the TouchFLO motion seems unhindered ...
What model are you guys ordering for on Boxwave?

I had posted that number from the package that I used on my Kaiser. Here's the link to it, it was a spare for my 8525 and it fit the Kaiser perfectly. I'm no Boxwave promoter, their accys have been so-so in my opinion. I do like their screen protectors however, but I'd give Brando a try from what I've read here.

yes, like this but with sreen plastic protector
I can't get screen protectors to stay on. I apply them per the instructions and about a week later they come off...
I have a Martin Fields screen protector and haven't had one issue. I keep my phone in my pocket most of the time too.
invisible shield
hands down the best protector on the market.
lifetime warranty, never needs replacing, etc.
I have one on my Tytn, my Himalaya, my ipaq, my Zen mp3 player, 'nuff said.

I swear by WriteShields myself (www.pocketpctechs.com). I've had them for my past 3 devices and they've outlasted the devices. They're very easy to put on cleanly with no air bubbles. They even have an anti-glare version that makes it much easier to see the scren outdors. I've never noticed any decrease in screen responsiveness; in fact, I prefer the firmer feel with the WriteShields.

Agree, i like these products.
I use the Crystal version, which makes the screen look naked, exactely like a brand new screen, flashy, glossy screen. Now the second version is Drumm's above, i didnt test it yet.
These protections are thick, thus kinda rigid. As a consequence no air bubbles remain when applied.
I just bought a Martin Fields, and it works really well. I was using NuSheild before that but I could never get the bubbles out, and as soon as I would get them out, and press my screen again, they would come back, very annoying.
Martin Fields however does not have that problem, and installation was a lot simpler, plus, it comes with a camera (lens) protector as well.
are the screen protectors mentioned in this thread pretty easy to apply? i usually get a clean application but there's always one or two bubbles that won't go away. another thing is getting it to lay down straight. do you guys have any techniques for applying?
I tried yet another screen protector and it came off again. I guess what I am looking for is a case that also has a cover for the screen, but not an aluminum case (too bulky).
My answer is...
A chap on ebay from Hong Kong. 3 protectors for a very small price.
Search for... HTC TyTN II Kaiser MDA Vario III screen protector x 3
Seller name - feidolphin
I have used this bloke 3 times for the same product for various handsets and he has always sent high quality items and pretty quick on the postage side to (6 days max).

I can recommend one from Brando. Very good quality. Well regarded in some countries, however not that known in the UK.
Martin Fields Screen Overlay.
Been suing these on all my devices: my original SPV, P900, SPV M2000, XDA Exec, M3100, Ameo and now my Vario III, and they are the BEST. Properly installed, bubbles smooted out, you can't tell they're there, and they are nearly impossible to damage, unless you take a knife to them. Also, if your device has multiple screens and/or cameras, they provide protectors for those too.
The protector T-Mobile provided with the Vario III is PANTS! I damaged it installing it, trying to rub an airbubble out...

Suing? Eh... USING...
WriteShield
Hi,
Someone can say me if WriteShield Screen Protector fit exactly the screen size of the Kaiser without leaving some screen surface unprotected ? Or which one fit exactly the screen's size ?
Thanks in advance

i just used the official iphone one from apple and cut it down to fit. and it works great no bubble or anything like that...and the left over is just big enough to cut a small disk out to put on my watch face. and then i can use the piece for the back when i need a replacement for the one on there.
Does anyone know where I can buy a new plastic casing for the Cingular 8525? The phone works great, but the outside is chipped a bit and a little beat up. I would like to replace it if possible. Everything I find when looking it up just returns cases / holsters - I'm looking to replace the actual casing the phone is in.
Alternatively, are there any good, hard cases that are not bulky and protect the screen as well? I had a metal one for the 8125 that worked well (although a bit bulky), but this phone doesn't quite fit it.
I would like to know too. I have too many scratches now and would like to clean it up. I don't want to switch phones until that Blackstone comes out!!
Hey, i was searching for Hermes Housing few weeks ago!
First thing you have to look are the different Hermes Models
HERM100, HERM200 and HERM300
The 200 has got a unique design so these Housings are not compatible to the other ones, but the 100 and 300 are nearly the same, the exclusive difference is the Front-Key-Layout.
The Key Layout does no effect to the compatibility of Housings.
As far as i know the 8525 is a HERM100 but it does not have a front camera.So if you want to put a 8525 Housing on a normal HERM100/300 you will loose your front Camera.
But inverted if you put a Hermes 100/300 Housing on a 8525 it will fit and you will get an empty front camera hole.
So if you got an 8525 you're able to buy every Hermes 100/300 Housing!
Here is for example one:
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-FULL-HOUS...39:1|66:3|65:12|240:1318&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14
But if the pictures are true, it will only fit on 8525, because missing front camera.So the description is wrong, it will not fit for example with MDA Vario 2 (HERM300)
and here's my favorite Housing Seller:
http://stores.ebay.com/ukhitechstore
There you're able to find a 8525 Housing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/SILVER-FULL-HOU...20336QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713.m153.l1262
But there is also a amzing Black Housing for Hermes 100/300, which i will buy as far as i get the money
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-FULL-HOUS...20336QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713.m153.l1262
I hope i could help you!
i have bought a full housing as mine was scratched to hell, there easy to replace.
