have you tried it ?

Shouldn't the moderator be moving these threads to the accessories forum so we can have them all in one place? Or is it up to us to notify them because they only have so many eyes, and minutes in the day?

I got an Invisible Shield but not fitted it yet.

Same :/ - Pretty annoying, however the screen does remakrablly stay clean! - Scratches seem to be avoidable if your not abusing it, but I still want that peace of mind - ie using dirty fingers xD
Doubt I'll use play.com again.

Got it from Carphone Warehouse and its a universal one, so ill have to cut it to size myself.
With this quality of screen though, I get the impression a screen protector might not be needed. It feels pretty scratch resistant unless your clumsy and don't keep it in a case of some sort.
I fail to see how general usage could lead to scratches.

Has anyone seen somewhere screen protectors with anti-glare? Wonder if they could help improve the AMOLED screen visibility under sunlight.

[Q] Screen protectors

Hi all,
Is it suitable to use a screen protector (e.g. Brando) with the Wildfire?
I'm wondering whether it reduces the touch screen's sensitivity, reflection , ...
What are you using?
I've got a Brando screen protector for my HTC Touch Cruise (3 years now) and I'm pretty happy about it. The protector looks pretty scratched and greasy but when I peak under it, the phone seems perfectly clear.
So what are your opinions? Thanks

I have a Zagg Invisible Shield on mine ant it`s great. The sensibility is only slightly reduced, you don`t even feel it`s there. But that depends on the type of protector you`re going to use. Mine does not interfere with the viewing angles ot luminosity/contrast. If you want to see more pictures check my blog.

My wildfire is a pretty rugged phone, i dont think it really needs screen protector. On the other hand, my htc desire wouldn't last a month without the ZAGG invisible shield, or is it maybe the desire costed me double?

I think the Zagg is good in application mine had no bubbles the next day but using Swype is a really drag ! literally too rubbery I'm afraid
Any suggestion on a good protector that works well with Swype ? I'm in UK

I don`t have problems wih Zagg and Swype, use it for a couple of days, it will smooth out.

Ok Alex will see how I go ,only had the Zagg protector on for a couple or three days

Mine took about 10 days in order to smooth out. As long as you installed it properly, you should be fine.

I've heard good things about this Brando one which has a matte finish so no greasy finger prints or reflections. I'm thinking of getting one if I can find it for sale in £GBP
http://hemorrdroids.net had a review of one on their Youtube channel.

Try phantom skinz, can't even tell its there, and I use swype! Little expensive, worth out through!

Zagg was fine for me the same day I applied it... Using Swype. Try pressing down harder/lighter? Either that or you're doing it wrong.

Where did you get the proporta ones from? I can't find them in the UK anywhere!

Can somebody please recommend me some good screen protectors from ebay (by posting the correct link)? I found many of them and I don't want to buy some bad ones...

i dnt think the screen protectors affect too much. mine came with my case all for $12, which is considered cheap in NZ. n it works pretty good

whatever you do don't get privacy screen protectors, the ones i tried were just a mirror finish, they look ridiculous, screwed up colours on screen,made it impossible to see anything outside, and made my sensors play up( my soft keys wouldn't light up). i'm like kevin just using cheap ones off ebay and they are fine.

Does wildfire come with screen protector on?

i cant tell whether ther is one on or not.
can someone please confirm.
im asking because i only found out my t-mobile pulse had a screen protector when it smashed one day.

My factory sealed Wildfire did not come with a screen protector.

Mine didn't have one on it

Mine had one one it which had all writing on it to tell me to take it off. I just went and purchased an invisibleshield after that.

just the factory warning one with remove before use on mine

My son has a Wildfire and it had no screenprotector in the box, only the thin plastic wich should be removed.

You really dont need one, it has a freakin gorilla glass

I don`t think it has Gorilla Glass.

According to gsmarena, it does.

According to GSMArena, the Wildfire has an Adreno 200 GPU, the same unit as on the Desire. So, I wouldn't go by what GSMArena says on the Wildfire, even though it is probably the mobile site of my choice.

According to me, it doesnt. When i bought it, i had to wait 3 days to get an invisibleshield protector, and i got a small almost unnoticeable scratch on there during that 3 day period, even tough i kept my wildfire in Golla pouch.

Now that`s interesting....
Funny thing, it was never a selling point for the Wildfire, like it was for other phones.

I put on a screen protector and after a week or two there is a big scratch on it that makes the touch feel much less smooth. I end up replacing it with a new one every three weeks or so.
Is this normal to do that?

No. I am still using a Screen Protector I put back in November last year.

Maybe you are using cheap, 3 for 2$ screen protectors. Those are pretty much crap.

Mine actually came with 2
One on the bottom (which attacts finger prints like ****)
And one above that one which was quite rigid when I had to take it off.

I believe they make matte versions now, they are much better. Not tacky at all. I wonder if this will work with the car dock...

how are the capacitive buttons with the full screen protector on??
I have a zagg shield i am just waiting for my bumper case to arrive so i can put them all on together, ( i have the xtreme guard on it atm
but it smudges way to easy)

I't works same if no screen protector.
But the Back key is always unsensible ;( iHope HTC will correct that with a software update.

I have one on my One X i found they are good for a few months but eventually either start coming off on the sides or start turning a color.Just a heads up.

Glass screen protector that works with the ultrasonic scanner

Cuz I know a lot of you won't want to just use the pre-installed film protectors. Whitestone has a compatible solution that many people already use for older edge displays.
Proof that it works along with video tutorial
Whitestone's website
Amazon listing

btw, be prepared to drop $50.

And ... 2 weeks to get one

I ordered from Amazon and received the next day

Ordered mine through Amazon sun, judt recieved my double pack today

Are these any good? Like do u lose any sensitivity at all?

Its suppose to be the same as having no screen protector because of the liquid glue they use in between the glass of your phone and the glass protector. No actual testing since I wont have my phone until mon

I can confirm it is working, Withestone Dome screen protector, fingerprint reader works as it should, it was a bit tricky at first but then after few hours it is much better and is getting better with every minute. I guess the glues is curing and allows better recognition? I do not know but i can tell you it is getting better with every unlock.
swagonman - you do not loose any sensitivity, i have been using Whitestone since Galaxy S8 and it has always been excellent. they are expensive but well worth it, and you have lifetime warranty as far as i am aware from Whitestone directly. (As long as you have a proof of purchase from a retailer).

Just ordered mine. My concern, based on cost, is having a case that will pop the edges or corners. The case you have in your photo looks like it works well. May I ask what brand or style that is?
I have a ringke clear case, a spigen tough armor and I have another ringke on order.

Yeah sure, i have OLIXAR Carbon Fiber Case :
https://www.olixar.com/carbon-fibre-samsung-galaxy-s10-plus-case-black
There is plenty of space between the case and the glass so should not be a problem with lifting,

I applied the Whitestone and my fingerprint scanner became very bad. I ended up having to remove it. Going to give it once more chance just to make sure it wasn't because I installed it poorly. It looked like a perfect install to me (no air bubbles or anything), but the fingerprint scanning became barely usable even 24 hours after applying it.

Yes, I actually did a complete rescan at least 4 times and added two entries for my right thumb and two entries for my left thumb. Again, possible that the install was bad, but didn't see any signs of issues.

Can't think of the guy's name on YouTube (soft spoken Asian guy who does tech reviews) but he was able to remove and reinstall the same glass. It looked really great.

I have received my phone today, first thing i did is to install whitestone. Then phone on and set up. Initially phone was saying put morepressure or something like that when scanning my thumb. Then it got better and better after few hours. Don't know it might just me getting used to it but i think it works much better now. I have x2 thumbs and x2 additional fingers done and all are working well.

I tried again with he second screen protector and it seems to be working much better. The only thing I can think of is that I didn't let the liquid sit long enough before the first curing process. Glad it is working now though.

lol i'm a dumbass installed the screen protector while forgetting there was the film one preinstalled lol so fingerprint doesn't work.. need to request a replacement
