Be careful: HTC One X - Broken screen

Hey Guys..
Just alittle warning. I dropped my Htc one x from my pocket as i was walking on the street and as you see the glass broke. I am somewhat disappointed, I expected that it could withstand the impact, but no.
Further, i was informed by 3 differnt repair shops that it is impossible to get it repaired because there are no parts made ​​for the phone yet.
One of the guys told me that htc not prioritize this particularly high.
Well i had a nice week with it tho

Ah man that's a real shame I dropped my Desire countless times over the 2 years I had it and it ended up with a 4mm long hairline scratch on the screen. I guess it's the price you pay for the curved glass - less protection round the edges.

Yea i guess i was unlucky. But im back on my old desire now hehe

Might have been alight if you had a case on it.
John.

ouch that makes me take a sharp intake of breath feel your pain bud I'd be gutted

yes the metal ring is not flushed with the glass, glass corners are extruding a bit over the protective frame
style over function, people

this wont protect the glass still

feel your pain son

By the damage it looks like it hit the side, that case will protect against that, he said he wanted something stylish and light.
I have ordered a white version of the case below, it should give good all-round protection including the camera, and give fantastic grip from all those nobbles.

Could this case harm my phone?

I just ordered this case a few minutes ago
http://www.amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B00G1G...qid=1392286988&sr=8-18&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70
and now I saw that it uses a magnet to turn on/off the screen. I remember reading about magnets harming phones (compass, screen, etc.), so I wonder if I should cancel my order or if this case will be safe to use?

Don't panic. Magnets used in those kind of cases are safe for your phone.

Yeah you shouldn't worry. Even one of the official cases from Google/LG has the same feature.

I want something like that .-. Is there more cases like that?

" Nothing's ever locked..."

Thx everybody! Happily awaiting the arrival of my case (and my screen protectors) then. The on/off feature may even be a really nice thing, saves the power button some work.
@Galaxysm: No idea, but amazon.de ships almost everywhere and the price is really good atm. It fluctuates a lot on this case, I saw it for 16.99 two weeks ago, then 20.99 last week and today 9.99,

I've got the same case. The material on the inside is the same as the material on the outside (the color accent on the outside). It won't damage the screen at all, but it's not "soft," per se. Just smooth.

Screen protectors

Black Friday sale at intelliarmor.com. Choose the screen protector for the OnePlus 3, and at checkout, in the coupon code area, put "intellifriday" and all you pay is shipping which is 2.99. Great deal.
Edit: Looks like you don't just pay shipping anymore, is just discounted a few dollars. Would change the thread title, but have no idea how to. There is no option for it.

Thanks fur the heads up!

Well, not in Hungary.

Nope, the US has the same discount, just -$3.61 discount and free shipping. I suggest you change the thread title.

Live in Texas, not free. There was probably an error with the coupon that made it 100% off and you probably picked it up before they corrected their mistake.

Didn't work here either, same as others, live in LA.

I got in before they fixed it. Nice!

Doesn't it come with a screen protector already applied? Only thing I'm looking for is a glass one, which I hear leave an annoying gap.

Pack of 2 on Amazon UK £9.99 l. After watching the video it looks great.

So, there was a glitch, just got an email from them cancelling my order and offering me 50% off, which is more than I paid to begin with. Guess I'll never use them again.

Doesn't look bad, but I'm not a fan of protectors that don't adhere to the screen (this adheres to the top and bottom). Causes the rainbow effect, and doesn't feel as good to me. Personal preference, but for now I'll stick to the pre-applied plastic one.

The HD wont be shipping on the 20th, which I suspect is why they are listing them as out of stock:
Howdy intelliGLASS Pixel 2 XL HD Backers!
Every October here at intelliARMOR we’re treated to the latest release of Google’s Android phone and it’s all hands on deck coming up with products and designs that fit perfect and perform the way we’d like.
Sadly, the progress we’ve been making on our intelliGLASS Pixel 2 XL intelliGLASS has not been stellar. The curvature of the XL model is significantly larger than the standard Pixel 2 and our flat glass is just looking horrible.
Because of this, we are not going to be able to ship our HD glass on the 20th as scheduled, we are estimating another 30 to 45 days before it is ready to go.

I wouldn't depend on the HD shipping. I think they said they were having problems with it because of the curved screen. There was a letter a couple of pages back.

I just want correct product pictures even if they are just approximations. How can I be expected to buy P2XL gear when I'm looking at P2 gear images?
We're putting so much faith in Intelliarmor's full adhesive 2D (and eventually full adhesive 3D) as the definitive TGSPs for the next few weeks/months. They need to meet us halfway.
I want that 2-pack 2D so badly. I just need the screen covered. If they need a micrometer to find the exact spot past the screen to stop the protection, then so be it. The case will do all the work.

Quoted the wrong post. I was actually trying to respond to the post you responded to. Don't know how I missed your post but then quoted it?

Anyone who ordered the intelliGLASS 3D for the Pixel 2 XL already received a shipping confirmation?
My order is still processing and on their website it doesn't really say it's out of stock...

My HD 2 pack shipped yesterday.

My card was charged on 11/18 for my black 3D order, but they have not yet shipped... When I placed my order the site said "Ships Nov. 20", now says "Ships Dec. 10"

Well, I really do hope that the intelliGLASS 3D is better than their support...
Just got an email that shipment is delayed till December 10 because of too many orders.
Well this info would have been nice to have had when placing the order...there was absolutely no mentioning that delays may occur.
A couple of days can always happen, but almost 3 weeks plus shipping to Europe. I'm lucky if I receive the tgsp before Christmas.
Not happy at the moment

Seem to remember the folks for IntelliArmor mention that the IntelliArmor 3D glass is full adhesive, anybody knows? Hope this is true and does not cut out any visible screen area.

What I have read it's not full adhesive, but adhesive around all sides and the cut-out of the proximity sensor.
Should probably be better than most, but if it's really going to be the tgsp we'll see

Definitely not full adhesive, but they never said it would be for these initial batches. They said the goal was to try and make a full adhesive version, but I'm guessing if they don't sell enough they won't.
Anyway, put my 3D on last night, no rainbow effect. Got to work this morning, rainbow effect. I'll be putting another Skinomi back on when I get home.

Accessories Whitestone [Dome Glass] Google Pixel 6 Pro Tempered Glass Screen Protector [Liquid Dispersion Tech] With Camera Film Protector

New! My personal newbie UV-cured screen protector review at post # 90. TL;DR - overall 95% satisfactory, fingerprint still works perfectly and looks and feels great.
Note that they are not listed here https://www.whitestonedome.com/collections/google/pixel but they are listed here https://www.whitestonedome.com/collections/google, although the former also says "[Pre-Order ] Google Pixel 6 Pro & 6 Dome Glass Are Live NOW!" just with no links to the product.
Direct link to P6P one here. Use the THANKYOU21 promo code for a further $6 off. Thanks to @LLStarks for that info. In the end, you pay for shipping instead of the (right now) default free 2-day shipping, and it only saves you $1.50. @lemonspeakerz says if you can find something for $1, use the XMAS25 code instead.
lemonspeakerz said:
Fyi, if you use this code, you loose out on the free 2-day shipping and you will be defaulted to the standard $5.99 shipping.
In the end, the code still brings the total to be $1.50 cheaper than without... But the real question is, is 2 day shipping worth it for $1.50?
I say, hell yes.
If you can find something for $1, use this code instead.

I bought mine already without a promo code, but I left one in the cart while I was experimenting with other promo codes people said to try, and I just got an email with a link to buy the one in my cart for 10% off, but when I follow the link it says "WELCOMEBACK discount code isn’t available to you right now". Might be worth someone else trying it, though.
LLStarks said:
A UV kit for the regular 6 is weird. They usually just do normal protectors for phones with flat screens.
At least the installation trays look like they got a major upgrade in materials and they aren't charging the usual $50+ for either phone.

The "OVDektNG" currently shown at the top of the page for 10% off did not work for me, however, it's showing the P6P and P6 screen protector 2-packs for $5 off what will be the normal price anyway.

My question too - does it work very well with the in-screen optical fingerprint reader. So far with everyone else, that's always the caveat with the screen protectors they've reported back on. The manufacturer's site doesn't mention the fingerprint reader and they're out of stock anyway.

I have this one (CoverOn) on my phone right now and no, fingerprint reader does not work. Several other people have mentioned this particular one doesn't work for them either (as with all the others). I am keeping it on though b/c it's nice, fits well, does well with not leaving too many smudges/prints, etc. Also feels nice. Until one comes out that works with the fingerprint reader, I'll stay with this and use a pin. I like the protection of tempered glass vs. TPU/PET, etc..

I really don't know it says it has true touch technology but since I have yet to receive my pixel I can't verify

i will stay naked until Whitestone. Might be 6 months down the line though.

Exact same thing here, keeping it for the fit, feel, and protection until something comes out that works. I still believe it's a software bug since the standard P6 is also having issues with TGSP and FP

Pixel 6 Pro screen protector
Hi all, I have a few questions around tempered glass screen protectors for curved screens like the Pixel 6 Pro, I was wondering if people had any answers to: Are there any known brands that do good quality curved tempered glass screen...
forum.xda-developers.com
then see pics here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/pixel-6-pro-screen-protector.4346387/post-85848951
It's a dot matrix protector. I for one, am SHOCKED some chinese no-name brand lied about their product. Shocked, I say.

Hello all -
I've been following this thread closely as quality tempered glass screen protectors are important to me. P6P will be my first curved screen, so I was disappointed to learn that it's a pain to find quality glass protectors for them.
I sent an inquiry to Whitstone Dome 1 week ago asking about availability for P6P screen protectors. They just now responded to me that they should release a product in mid-January 2022.

Exactly!! I could tell just by the black lines around the outside.

iShieldz has a protector that has adhesive just on the fingerprint scanner part to get the scanner working. The tradeoff is that you end up with a circle in the screen thats visible all the time. I got it from my carrier.
I contacted Whitestone and they replied to me and said they will have one ready to be sold in January-ish.
