I got my zagg put on a week ago. Fits and looks great. I havent had any issues with sides yet.

I dont know about sides because I just got the screen cover and not the full body. It went on without a problem just like all others I have bought before! I know I dont really need a screen guard but it eases my mind!

I bought two Evos and we have Zagg screen protectors on both and there were easy to put on, stick really well, have no issues from them at all, the screen still responds really well and then we added gel skins/covers to them both. Being I pre-ordered at RS, the Zaggs didnt cost me anything.

I love my Zagg's I have used them for my past 3 phones including a Touch Pro and Touch Pro 2.
I have already purchased the EVO's protection but I am on the waiting list for the phone until the new ones arrive on Wed.
If something goes wrong I'll come back and let everyone know, otherwise assume it to go as well as all the other instillations I have done - smooth and pretty.

Invisble shield hard to apply, TIPS?

I had it on my herald and it went on easy and looked great. Putting it on the fuze its alot harder and it looks pretty bad, i got the full protection, but just screen coverage alone gave me alot of issues.
Any tips?
I followed the instructions carefully
Did you watch their youtube videos? They have them on their website. I have a feeling (waiting for mine to arrive) that this will not work out for full protection. I should have watched the videos earlier.
You have to seriously molest the shield to make it attach to the corners. There is a penalty for spending too much time or not enough time on molding it. There is also a penalty for finger oils, too much liquid, not enough liquid, blah blah blah. This is no Shamwow!
I will try to record me putting it together on mine for the first time so we can share in the fun.
Their videos are like step 1...step 2...step 154,987...hahaha
I love knowing that we are about to spray a plastic product with a bunch of liquid and then adhere it mere millimeters away from the warranty voiding pink water sensitive tabs.
Man, Im a negative SOB on something I have never tried. Sorry Zagg I will correct myself if needed.
Perhaps I should have gone with one of the brands I used for my 8125 or my x61tablet.
Hi:
Can someone who has applied an Invisible Shield to a Touch Pro/Fuze, please post a good quality, up close picture of how it looks after installation? I have looked at their site, but all the pics as fairly small.
I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!
Saved for pictures of install.

You should all return your InvisibleShield and buy a real full body kit with BodyGuardz.
Way better then the crap you get from Zagg and BodyGuardz give you 2 full kits.

Umm, but what about the PTT button? Doesn't look like there's an opening for it.

According to InvisibleShield there doesn't have one either. Just had a buddy of mine order one from them. All they have right now is the TouchPro. I guess just wait it out until they have with the PTT already cut out. I am going to modify mine when I get it. I'm not that picky about it. Just trying to save people the trouble of ordering from Zagg. Probably the worse customer service I had ever experienced.
I just ordered a full body kit from ghost armor, it should be here in a few days. Any one ever used it? I assume they are all about the same as far as installation. I have just the screen protection from body gaurdz right now, it has a lot of drag on the screen (stylus doesn't slide very well)
Contacted Zagg they approved my return. Im assuming the guardz is the same type of material as Zagg uses? Reason being, on the touch screen it provides a much better feel that other screen protectors.
Cant really explain it buy it sort of gives you a light grip its an amazing feel compared to a bare screen or a normal screen protector in general

To be fair, I have used InvisibleShield's on my Tilt, MDA, Nintendo DS and Sony PSP and those things are indestructible! After 1-3 years, they are all still going strong.

I agree.
...boxwave
I'm curious to see how well the invisibleshield went on the back of the fuze. I was thinking of getting it, but just for the back. I use on all of my devices with screens the boxwave anti-glare. Some ppl argue that it dims the screen, makes it look less sharp, and I disagree. They make all my devices from my Palm Lifedrive down to my Sony PSP usable outside, and that's a biggy for me. So the first thing I'm doing when I open my fuze box is going to be taking the already unwrapped boxwave and putting it on, before I even turn on the device.
But the back worries me, it seems like a scratch magnet, and I want to get that protected too. Anyone want to post pics from their installs? How hard was it with all those facets?

Well they might be strong but there customer service is compared that of Raiders offensive production this season. Abysmal.
I have never in my life been so admiment about asking for a return. I have dealt with mobile providers customer services, which by industry standards is always pretty bad, but Zagg has reached a new low.
I never said they had a horrible product by any means, but there Customer service was enough to make me post, not only this post but numerous others about the company. Whoever is running the company needs to make a serious adjustment on the way they handle customers. I ordered a InvisibleShield or I should deem it "The Shield that never came to be" on Saturday the 15th. The informed that the Shield would be shipped in 3-5 business days. Never heard a response after 5 business days. When I e-mailed the company asking them about it. Nothing. No response for 2 days. When I asked the "Customer Service Represenative" about where the order was all the could tell me was that it was processing.
When I called for further clarification all I could get was the same answer and the lady on the phone told me "I have no idea why it hasn't shipped yet" When I told her my complaints about the company all she said in response was, "I'm sorry to heard that." Not, how can I make this better for you. Or I will check on your order right now and make sure that it's shipped out today. I immediately there after cancelled my order and sent my money else where. Of course I have to wait 3 - 5 business days for my money to be returned to my bank account. Funny that it took less then 12 hours for them to take the money but takes 3 - 5 business days for the money to be put bank into my account. Funny how that works.
If you are happy with InvisibleShield, then so be it. I just wanted other people on XDA to know about the horrible customer service that I experienced.
A side note. Another fellow XDA member purchased a invisbleshield the day after I ordered mine. He received his order last Wednesday. How does somebody who ordered the same exact product in the same state one day after me get the product before me. What's funny about though is that he received a invisibleshield for another phone not the Fuze.
Once again another stellar example of the applitude of people running Zagg.

what you done realize is, the minute your hit purchase you had your invisiheild. You can't fault them for not shipping you something you had all along. i think if you look hard enough you miiiight...juuuust miiight see how inviable this shield really is. and when you see your inviable shield, you'll enjoy it that much more! here here for invishield...a job well done!

The point of getting the Zagg is I dont Need two kits...
Ill post pics of mine should get mine in the mail today or tomorrow. I've applied Invisible shields to almost a dozen devices and I've only had it come out with extra bubbles once when I wasnt as careful with my Sansa Fuze (my phone and mp3 players are both Fuzes now...neato)

Like I said. If you are happy with your product then so be it, but just don't say I didn't warn you.
Oh and Rzanology it did say HTC Fuze when I ordered it not HTC Touch Pro so once again it's Zagg fault.

My radioshack had no type of accessories

So i walked in radio shack soon they open up (6am) i was pre-order #1 and they was more people walked in behind me.
I got the phone. and i asked them about the accessories for the phone. and they only had some lame screen protectors, nothing as other people was promising far as HDMI cables, gloves, hard cases, etc..
So i just took the lame screen protectors that fit any phone 4inchs and a lil cheap car charger.
Something is better then nothing i guess..
What kinda accessories you had at your local store?
not suprised
Same thing for me. Nothing at my RS. They said like 10 days for hdmi cables another might get cases then. They were not sure.
Would of had thought HTC or Sprint would had shipped cases and etc with the evo. to be sold with the $20 giftcard
same no hdmi cables and limited stock of acc. so i got the horizontal case and screen protector
Just got mines at a Sprint Store they had EVERYTHING! I got my phone and the Bodyglove case. The Bodyglove case is REAL nice!

i got the body-glove case as well. seems a little mis-fitted to the Evo, but it is an all-phone case, not specifically evo.
i had the same experience at my Radio shack. they had the body glove case, and just a couple of screen protectors. LAME.
Sprint store had ALL accessories and if you buy 2, you get 20% off. I bought a silicone and Screen protectors. $25 and change. I was gonna get the Body Glove but it was a little TOO protecting. I'll probably go naked soon, it's almost too nice to keep in a case.
I bought my EVO at a Radioshack though and like the OP, they had NO accessories, just generic.

Let me see some pictuessssssssss!!!!
my RS only had invisible shield screen protectors. so i got that with the 20 dollar gift card, since it was only 15 bux, i used the rest on AA batteries. haha lame. they didnt even have anything else i could use the left over balance on for something i could use on the phone. no hdmi, cases, nothin.
fyi, the invisible shield for the evo is garbage. it looks like crap and is cut too long. i prefer the oem screen protectors that came with the tp2.
Here are some pics I took from my Blackberry 9700
Crap at my RS too.. mirroed screen protect (looks like garbage on the EVO but it will work til I get something better) and an audio patch cable... though unless I'm understanding it wrong... the phone should have been $199 then the accessories - $20 but when they rang everything up.. total was $194 with tax
Should've known that already.
It was announced that RS wouldn't have any true accessories for the Evo until later in the month. In the meantime, there are iGo chargers, WriteRight Screenies (which work beautifully, a million times better than the mirrored), horizontal cases... True, that's about it, but when you get $20 off there isn't really room to complain.
Disappointing, yes... but nothing new

This is the EXACT same thing that I did (LOL). A Zagg screenie (which I now think is awful) and AA batteries.
I'm soooo glad I pre-ordered @ RS. I was the first to get a phone and was in and out in 10 minutes.
I went to the Sprint store by my house to get the BodyGlove case and the line was 15 people deep outside. Inside it was a madhouse! Of course I pulled out my new, already rooted EVO in front of everybody in line (I mean, I had to make sure that the case would fit, you know). ;-)

The only thing my RS had also was the Zagg screen protectors. Nothing else. They offered generic cases, but none custom-built for the Evo. They said it'd take about a week before any Evo accessories actually came in. Sad.

White EVO paint chipping

Anyone else having a problem with the white paint chipping off the white EVO?
I noticed around the edges of the rear frame the paint is starting to come off revealing the red plastic underneath. I called several Sprint stores none of them carry the actual white parts for the EVO, One tech suggested I buy the parts on ebay and install them myself, Another tech wanted to charge me $35 just to look at the phone and then decide whether or not to file a warranty claim for the EVO.
Does any of this sound right? I have only been with Sprint for a few months.

I would just pull the back off the phone and repaint it. You could actually paint it any color you want. I'm actually going to paint my otterbox so the wife and I can tell the difference between our phones(we both have EVO's with the same style otterbox.

A store once told me to go buy a stylus for my Treo at Radio Shack when mine broke.
I called Executive Escalations and explained the situation, had a stylus overnight and as far as I was told the store was reprimanded.
Don't take their BS.

I'm trying to be a nice guy, I don't want to escalate anything if I don't have to, I will if it's necessary. So far it seems the Sprint at the stores are not even prepared for working on the white EVO, They don't even carry the parts....
I've had nothing but good experiences with the sprint repair centres. Took my phone in last week cause the speaker sounded bad, they replaced the whole back half of the phone, free, no questions asked in about 10 minutes, they didn't even mention the fact my phone said "freshhh" when it booted up lol.
I brought my microUSB cable in as well because the end bent and it stopped charging the phone. I figured its my fault, they'll sell me a new one but he just grabbed me a new one and off I went, great experience.
This week my GPS stopped working so back I went, they looked at it and ordered me a new phone, again no questions asked, no charge.
So I would say go to a different sprint store. Everyone complains about Sprints customer service but I've had nothing but good experience.

I don't think it so much a customer service issue, As it's just that they are not
prepared to repair the White EVO. I only have a handful of Sprint Stores in my area, So far everyone I have talked to has not been much help. The last thing I want to is drive even farther to get the same answer.
i have the white evo and the paint chips and its orange. its annoying =(
Ummmm ummmm yea.....i don't know what to tell you...I'm confused by this thread and its meaning for creation. You probably are upset but I would suggest painting it yourself maybe?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App using Swype and Warm 2.2 RLS3
Id like to see some finished results of the battery cover and the piece underneath the front benzel painted some different colors before i go doing my own. I own a black evo so I don't even know if painting would even be an option. Still, I'd like to see.
Sprint stores don't have stock for any white parts yet, so there's nothing that can be done. Though, even if there were parts, paint is considered cosmetic damage, and not covered. You also have to remember that stores are JUST getting stock of the white EVOs, for sale in a few days. Many have never even SEEN a white one in person.
That being said, as much as I love the look of the white, I've seen the paint chipping too often to get one. Sad.
haha.. i traded out my white evo for a black one for this reason

[OT] gTab is up on EBAY, waiting for transformer....

I will be buyin this bad boy on LAUNCH DAY....
I think i'll wait on buying the dock though....
gonna miss my gTab, hope I get what I paid for the gTaba nd the CLIP.
I hope they make a CLIP for the Transformer, I LOVED IT for the gTab!
I was able to sell my G Tab on ebay this past weekend for $345 shipped with Skinomi screen/back protectors. I only lost like $10 compared to what I paid for everything. Kind of a bummer since I only owned the G Tab for like a week lol. But oh well... I think the Transformer will be worth it.
Probably best to unload the G Tab now anyway, before it quickly starts to lose value.
Auction just closed, got $335 + $15 shipping, came to $339.50 after paypal fees. After I take my MAC bluetooth keyboard back to bestbuy ill have (hopefully) ~$410 which should put me close to the Transformer, i hope.
It was a blast to use my gTab, now its time to move on to something new and let someone else enjoy the goodness =D
I'm on the same boat. I have two Nooks that are going on ebay before the transformer catches wind.

OT: How did that Skinomi protector work on the gtablet? I just posted in Accessories that I saw they were advertising a protector and carbon fiber back on Amazon - but have never heard of them.
It worked really well. Fitment of the back piece was kind of crappy (holes didn't quite line up) but for the most part, I was happy with it. It made the screen more responsive and improved viewing angles a bit.

Thanks for the feedback.
I found a few others posting that the back pieces didn't fit quite right, but still worked.
Another member in the gtablet forum actually cut some carbon fiber backs for several of us so I'll have to see if he's still "in business" for this one.

Yeah the guy selling his own custom carbon fiber backs is a little bit more expensive though. Seems like it may be a higher quality product, but I'm not sure. The Skinomi kit comes with pieces for the sides of the tablet as well though.
I sold my Gtab I have had since November, last week. I'm looking forward to working on the Transformer and will be in for the tablet/dock as soon as it is available in the US.

Did anyone else get to order one today and didnt get a chance to order a case with it

I forgot and when I went back to order a case they were all sold out. If you are in my shoes, how to protect your OP5 until cases come out or in stock? I'm sure it comes with a preinstalled screen protector at least, maybe leave the plastic on the back? All ideas are welcome
i had the welcome package in my cart but it said out of stock. I checked out and it only charged me for the phone. I figured it would just charge me later when it was back in stock (it was $60 cheaper than it shows now). It only shows I ordered a phone
I'm looking for a case but not having luck. I guess I'm just going to be extra cautious
I talked with an agent from oneplus... obviously the phone just went out buddies xd and it doesn't have accessories yet
They are going to request them soon
I ordered just the phone... don't plan to use any case...
same here
I ordered a Slickwraps leather skin. It should be here by the time I get the phone.

I've used them on several devices. They usually don't provide a lip for the camera lenses. I lay my phones down on a soft surface so scratching is not an issue. When I placed the order it said that they were in stock so I'm just assuming. I'll keep you updated

I'm looking for a case but not having luck. I guess I'm just going to be extra cautious

Before it removes it from your cart, there was a window telling you that it wasn't available, and that it would be removed if you continued, with the with-bundle price crossed out, and the reduced price listed.
I did add it to my car .... When checking out it was sold out ?

This, atleast for now. I'll definitely get a screen protector and a tpu-case for party's and when traveling.
Same. Got phone but cases sold out. I'm sure 3rd party will be available soon.
I had an otterbox with my old motorola defy for years. i ordered yesterday the oneplus but screenprotector and case from otterbox was out of stock. So i ordered the otterbox at otterbox.de . This shop has an option for country selection.
But i still need the screenprotector. The lack of cases and screenprotectors are a pitty btw.
I'll use the Spigen Rugged Armor case, it's the best in my opinion.
Same, but I was able to order an Orzly clear case on eEbay UK.

The OnePlus 5 comes with a factory preinstalled screen protector, check the "What in the box?" section of the OP5 specifications web page. I have an inexpensive ($9USD) Catman soft back cover with gold trim ordered but it won't arrive in time for my phone so I likely leave the back protection strip on the phone and baby it for a while. The price is cheap enough that I may buy something else if more desirable covers become available and in stock before it arrives. These cases are actually clear except for various top and bottom trim colors and accents around the camera, flash and side button holes. Some of the pre-launch "leaked" OP5 pictures showed these cases.
I kept refreshing and trying again. I eventually got the welcome package too

I closed the pop-up with the cross on the top right corner and re clicked on "Purchase", I had to do it 3 times and I got it.
I ordered the 8/128 with the carbon bumber case. I see a ship date of today but I did hit the cancel button last night but it doesn't do anything. No confirmation no sorry your order can't be cancelled. Oh well at this point if it comes it comes. To be honest I'm just not impressed with it and don't think I'll be able to ditch my S8. The overwhelming thing I like about Oneplus is the community but it is summer now and I don't have as much time to root and play with my toy, lol. If it comes I'll take it for a test ride and see how I like it. Maybe keep it as a spare but the Essential is also coming as well as the Pixel 2 by LG which I have a feeling will have a little G6 heritage.

tempered glass like the one out of stock or just a thin foil? I would prefer the first but expect the last, like it was on all the 5s seen in a lot of review videos
