Hi,
first of all does anyone know where i can get a good scree protector and case??
Also .. i have been using my desire today and I have fingerprints on my screen. What is the best way to get my screen clean without scratching it. Has anyone else got this as well?
Microfiber cloths i find are best. I by a pack of 6 kent ones for about £3 from Asda. I normally change the cloth every couple of weeks. I'm in to car detailing and use the same ones when cleaning the inside of my vauxhall astra VXR..
Can you post the link where you bought your Microfiber cloths?
That's only for cleaning the screen, right?

Case and pen
I got my case and i pen that i ordered from Amazon the case fits properly but doesn't offer that much protection but it does the job. The pen that came with it works fine could be better but it works. Pictures are below.
Link is below but i think they changed the case you get with it.

Hi Y´all!
This might be a stupid question but never the less:
The Legend screen cover is hardened glass.
Given the nature of this thread can i then assume that Desire´s screen front is plastic?
Haven´t found the ansver in any of the reviews so far.
Edit:
Never mind! found the ansver, It´s glass. then why use screen protectors surely they´ll attrack fingerprints as well?

Hi,
I ordered the same case (from Ebay).
However, click on the link you have put on ... the case has changed.
And the one that you and I have bought is now £40 more!!
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Brand-Luxur...2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1270338006&sr=1-2
I got mine from ebay for £6.99 (he said he would send it off on the same day so I paid the higher price on ebay to get it quicker but I have not received it yet).
And on ebay it is £60 now! I thought it was a mistake until I checked it out on Amazon!
Is this for reel?

its from the same user, but not exactly the same product, from the pic, the higher price is claimed to be leather, "real leather" so thats why its higher IMO
I would say none of us buy it... 45 pounds is a lot of money for a... case... even be it for the HTC desire... so the price will definitely go down in the next few weeks to a more normal £8-9 pounds for a real leather case.

So the tip of the phone stays out I assume! I don't know how comfortable it is to slide it in and out of this case, but I don't like it, looks like it can scratch the phone from both sides with the edge of the opening.
Anyway, I've used a case with the Hero from Clove, and it's so practical and protective of the phone. A similar one for the Nexus One can be found here.
It should work for the Desire i think.
Edit: The quoted link shows a different case, refer to attachment in post #4

dunno why the price has jumped up so high, i dunno if it's a mistake, or it is real leather and they accidentally put the price low.
What I am saying guys that this case
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Brand-Luxur...7?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1270372814&sr=1-7
use to be about £5-£6
Now look at the price!!! Why the sudden increase? It is almost ten times the price I got it for! ( I still have to receive mine but other people have received theirs!)

I do not think it is a mistake as they have the higher price on Ebay too now.
Whatever it is hopefully it means I got myself a bargain!
Should have bought more than one!!!

I have just got this case from e-bay and it also comes with screen protecter and cloth for under £5
click photo for link to e-bay
those brown leather dopod pouches can still be purchased for between £6-£7 from "no1accessory" on amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/search/r...0SV&rh=p_4:first2savvv&ie=UTF8&qid=1270382200
If you've moved onto a desire from a G1 like i have, the soft pouch that comes with the G1 is a great fit for the desire.
Just got these screen protectors and they arn't very good, seconds after i put it on there was scratches on there and its very thin.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/MEXXPROTECT...6?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1270547617&sr=8-6
Can anyone tell me where to find a good set of screen protectors?
So I ended up wanting a MT4G case and came across this site through a friend who bought a similar case from ambitronic.com.
Wondering whether to get the TPU Fusion Case? Look no further!
Shipping:
The product came relatively fast. When I got my final order, all they allowed was first class shipping, but it was only about $3. I ordered my product on Saturday, was notified that it shipped out on Sunday, and it came on Tuesday afternoon.
The website said that it was "delivered" on Monday when I checked, but when I went to check the UPS tracking number it just said sorted. So if you're wondering why the case hasn't come, check the UPS site and be patient, it's worth it!
Pricing/Value:
This is where the product shines. The case was only $3.40, and I bought a $0.95 screen protector with it. I also used a promotional code that docked off 10%. Unfortunately, shipping was $2.95 (still not that bad for first-class), so my total came out to be $6.87.
The Product(s):
I bought two things:
The Black TPU Fusion Case, and
a MT4G Screen Protector
The case itself is pretty good. All the holes are in the right places, and it fits really well. It does not add any noticeable bulk, and although it was somewhat difficult to get it on my MT4G in the beginning, it gets easier as time goes. The side grips are really nice (they're textured for easier grip), and I have 99% confidence that I won't break my phone as long as I have this case (the other 1% is if I keep it in the washing machine ). I had an issue with the power button being too hard to press at the outset, but as time went by, the issue got better and it's much easier to hit the power button.
Note: The TPU Fusion cases for this product only come in Black (+$0.45), Clear (+$0.45), and Red. I got the black one, and it looks really sleek on my black MT4G.
Now, the screen protector on the other hand was not useful at all. The product said that it would come with a soft card, but it did not. The thing also did not come with any instructions, so I ended up having to check how to install it on XDA. After cleaning the glass screen with the microfiber cloth and applying the screen protector, there were too many air bubbles, and I realized that the screen protector collected dust quite easily. I ended up having to trash it.
Overall:
4.75/5
Great product, great company.
-0.15 for the worthless screen protector
-0.10 for only 1 shipping option (shipping ended up being about 45% of the cost, but it was relatively cheap, so I can't complain too much).
Get it here.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I shot them an email, and here's what I got:
Hi, thank you for your honest opinion on our product and service. Your support is really important to us. We have just issued you $0.8 credit (Rounded it up) via paypal.
Regarding the screen protector issue, it used to include a soft card inside the package but it seems our supplier did not include it in this shipment. We have removed the word "soft card" from our description to avoid being misleading.
If you did not get another screen protector for the Mytouch 4g yet, we would like to re-send you the screen protector for free. Hopefully, this time it can do its job. Please let us know and have a good night!
Sincerely,
Dale

Lol, made me buy one also. I also read the extended battery thread and that made me buy one before I read this. Now I don't know which to put on unless I cut the case to fit the battery.

Exactly. I may just cut the TPU case to fit the battery.
I did not like this case. I found it to added far too bulk to the phone.
However....I cut the top off of it and hot glued the case to the armrest in my car. (It looks clean I swear!) So now I have a great holder that my phone slides in and out of easily that keeps it nice and secure where I can see the screen to know who's calling before answering on the bluetooth.
It's a GREAT phoen case for this purpose. And I'm thrilled with my purchase.

I got a TPU Fusion case when I got my phone. I'm pretty pleased with it overall. The grips on the sides make the phone feel much more secure in my hand.
Thank you for your support. It is good to see people like this TPU Fusion design.
I bought a similar tpu, but the hole where u charge the phone was too little and cause of that i couldnt charge it well so i decided to throw it away

I guess the garbage can was closer than a knife.
I was snooping around for SII, Epic 4G Touch, accessories and stumbled upon this on eBay. I thought it was going to be just a cheap vinyl with an image of carbon fiber printed all over it. For $4.99 shipped I thought I would give it a try.
eBay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/22094980676...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_1831wt_1063
When I received it (quick shipping too) I was surprised to see that the skin actually has texture rather than just being a flat vinyl. Its a dry installation and fairly easy to do, granted that you dont drink 3 bottles of Monster before applying. The skin also comes with 2 screen protectors which require a water/soap solution, I didn't bother applying those or even trying them out. ( I hate wet installation screen protectors, prefer dry installation. ) So I cannot comment on the quality of the screen protectors.
The skin covers the entire back and all sides. The cutouts are proper and do not conflict with any functionality. NOTHING in the front is covered with this skin, which I thought kinda sucked. But now that its on my phone I actually think its better that way.
Once applied the skin looks pretty sweet. The texture grips nice and protects your phone from scratches that would mostly derive from being in your pocket, sliding on counters, sitting in your cup holder while driving, and when placing it on the bathroom sink while you wipe your rear after that poopy-while-on-your-phoney.
DONT THINK this will protect your phone from a wooden bat swing or drops. Its a skin, not an otterbox defender.
As for quality, I have had it on my SII for 6 days and still looks as it did the day I put it on. In another week, who knows, another month who knows. Maybe tomorrow it will fall apart and disintegrate.. im not sure.. but so far it was well worth the 5 bucks, and then some.
Side note: my local mall charges like $90 bucks for these things with installation.. WTH................. (granted those are probably better quality)
I have it on my Nook Color and it is definitely worth the price.
Looks nice
I like... For 5 bucks I'm totally going to give this one a try. Thank OP
got one!
Nice. Got one. Thanks for the heads up.
nice i like this! thanks
is this skin thin enough to not affect its use with a samsung car dock?
I cannot tell you for sure since I dont have the dock, but the skin adds very little to the device.

Question, did it come with a cutout for the Sprint Logo? In the ebay pics it covers the Sprint logo, but in your pics the logo is showing.
Honestly I wish it would cover the Sprint Logo, I hate carrier branding on the outside of the device, huge pet peeve of mine.

I have had one if these since the phone came out. I got it from ghost armor. Mine does cover the log on the back. I also have a desktop dock and it still fits. I am sure my skin is the same thickness as this one. Mine is just more expensive since these weren't out yet.

There is a cutout for the sprint logo, so it does show once the skin is applied.
Have you ever tried rubbing a sugar cube on it? I have heard of people doing that and successfully removing such logos off their device.

Eh..
Ordered mine on the 29th and it still hasn't came in. It was only market shipped like three or so days after ordering it.. I have a case and was just going to try this out, but it's taking a while and I've received things quicker from China than this lol..
Yeah they're slow. Mine said expected delivery between March 7th and 13th, and here it is the end of business on the 13th and not here.

Dear cds0699,
Hello,
We do apologize, we made a mistake.
This item was shipped out last Friday (March 9), due to the relocation of our manufacturing facility.
Please allow until the end of the week to receive your order. Since we use USPS there is no tracking # provided.
Thanks

Yeah I sent them a message not too long ago. I use USPS very often and they always provide me with a tracking number, when I sell and buy. We'll see what happens, I'm not blaming them or anything, just saying how it is.
Edit: Just got a response, it is word for word the same as yours. My item was marked "shipped" on the 4th or 5th though, we'll just have to wait some more.
No so sure it's the seller's fault. USPS workers in my area are pretty disgruntled atm and it shows. They are all feeling what's about to happen to some of them.
Thanks just pick up one.

WORKING SKINOMI LINK -- and it's $.99 + $2.95 shipping, but still not bad, and it beats the $16 + $2.95 for the others with the back skin if you don't need it.

Thanks op for this deal. Was about to order one from the regular site but you saved me around 6 or 7 bucks.
I wonder if they're blowing it out because of the curved screen and they fubar'd their first attempt at making a screen protector.

Me too, they did the 99 cent thing for the HTC One X early on and people gobbled them up. Overwhelming majority of reviews were negative and some concluded that the batch was defective which explained the price slash.

Interesting. Well I guess there's 3-4 of us who will know for sure. I'd be happy to come back in here and let yall know if it's a screw up when mine comes in the mail.
I have this screen protector in my s3 and it sticks pretty well to the screen. My only complain is the orange peel effect
I ordered one of these. Hopefully the orange peel isn't too bad. I currently have the realook one installed but when I put my cruzerlite case on the edges start to come up.
I've always wondered if these types of protectors provide more protection than the hard/dry protectors

Seems like you guys maybe right. I just got mine in today and the film was kind of stuck to the plastic bag it was in which resulted in some weird bubble imprints on the top of the screen protector. I'll try to get a picture up tomorrow. I'm letting it sit overnight to see if the weird markings on it come out.
I just applied mine last night and after a nights dry, it seems a bit on the tacky side. Its not as smooth as I would like, kinda hard to swipe. But I will give this a day or 2 more to fully dry and judge from there.

They don't provide more or less, they seem to be on par.
The real differences are how long they last. Skimomi type repair themselves, can take hits that would usually damage the dry hard type, doesn't usually peel off if applied correctly. That's why most have a lifetime warranty. And the reason they come singular or in a two pack (mostly if you mess up installation, you have that spare), but not 3-5 packs, because you're gonna have to put another one on in a few weeks...
This has been my experience..

The real differences are how long they last. Skimomi type repair themselves, can take hits that would usually damage the dry hard type, doesn't usually peel off if applied correctly. That's why most have a lifetime warranty. And the reason they come singular or in a two pack (mostly if you mess up installation, you have that spare), but not 3-5 packs, because you're gonna have to put another one on in a few weeks...
This has been my experience..

Just one. Wet application, though, so, hard to screw up.
Deal dead? Coming up as 6.95 in my browser now.

Just put mine on, the orange peal is much smoother than the original Zagg on my inspire, however the holes don't fit perfectly, they fit, just not as well as i would like.
Immediately after install any white on the screen looks very pixelated with a rainbow of colors, anyone else get this? Does it go away? Please tell me it goes away, if not i am going to rip it off right now.
Installed last night and very impressed. Had 3 small patches of spider web, 2 of which have gone on their own and the 3rd is hardly noticeable and I have a feeling this will go too.
There's a slight lift around the edges of the earpiece, I guess that's down to the glass on the phone not being completely flat.
I've had a Spigen tr and a Nillkin, neither of which went on as well as the Anker - although that could be just me having more practice!
Oleophobic coating is also working nicely, a few smears but overall very good indeed.
I'd definitely recommend one especially if you don't want to pay the premium for Spigen.

This is with a Spigen Ultra Hybrid..
Just got one of these myself. Its pretty good but my cruzerlite tpu case is not working well with this SP. Might need to get a different case

I wish this was available in Canada =(
Just put mine on yesterday and only ended up with one small bubble in the top left area of the phone and no spider webs (w00t w00t!)
I have it paired with a Spigen Slim Armor and it fits on JUST about right. Not sure if it's putting pressure on the glass screen but it looks like it fits perfectly. We'll see how long it lasts with it.
Texture on the glass screen is amazing. Neither I or my co-workers could feel any type of difference.
bought this and have small spiderweb at bottom.. still happy, very high quality.
hope sw goes away after time.
I agree, wish I could find these in canada. $15 bucks I'm willing to spend, $35 not so much.

I just installed mine tonight. I love it. Feels great and have no issues with the touch screen.
I could have lined up the protector a little better, but despite that I only have a couple a small air bubbles that should go away.
I highly recommend it! I just wish my cruzerlite case would still work with it. Oh well...

Shame about the cases not working well.. Spigen Hybrid is fine, not noticed any issues as yet.
Can you please provide some pictures? :good:
How thick is this screen protector?
I'll take some later :good:
0.38mm I think, feels very nice though.. not too thick at all.
Many thanks!
I can't seem to find the UK or German amazon site for this?
How does it compare to Mime Ghost glass?

No...Look to the title. This is the link to "Anker® Screen Protector for Google Nexus 5 [3 Pack] Xtreme Scratch Defender Ultra-Clear High-Response Premium with Lifetime Warranty"
The Pet film screenprotectors....
Oh that's weird.. The link came from my order confirmation from Amazon for the glass protector! I didn't read it, just assumed it would be correct.. I guess they aren't selling therm.
Edit: ha just noticed that the original link in the first post goes to the wrong item now too.. Ah well.

I'm wondering when they are selling them again. I'm doubting between Anker or Mime Ghost screen. Which one is better? Anker offers lifetime warranty though!
Not sure, I've not used the Mime yet.. Only this, the Spigen and the Nillkin. The Anker has been the best so far, it's still on my phone and not chipped, which is an improvement!

i got one recently about 2 weeks ago, and for some reason i got a huge bubble spider looking web about half inch on the bottom of my screen and about 2 small spider webs which i didnt mind too much. I contacted them through amazon since supposedly they're bubble "free". This is the reponse i got
"Thanks for the response and sorry for the issue.
Actually we have had this issue reported and we are currently investigating it with our suppliers as it seems to be a batch issue. A replacement as much as I would have liked to make, it's not a viable option.
May I ask a second chance to make things right by issuing a refund? We will further process once we get your consent."
Ever since then the screen protector is not available, i didnt want a refund because i liked the screen protector but that half inch bubble its getting on my nerves. So i went ahead and accepted the refund will be trying Nilkin i guess.
I got this screen protector a couple weeks ago, too, and I have a big bubble at the bottom that hasn't gone away. I just called and they said they have made some manufacturing changes to the protector which should (hopefully) resolve the bubble problems. However, the new batch won't be ready for 1-2 weeks.
I am going to wait for a new one. They will call me when they are ready to be shipped.
