Privacy Screen Protector? - myTouch 4G Accessories

i was lookin through the previous screen protector threads and didnt see anybody mention anything about this...are their any available for the mytouch 4g? the closest one ive found is just a crappy one that makes it slightly blurry from the sides but thats not really privacy lol...

I had that screen protector it helps for when your texting in public and dont want anyone to see what you write.

yea i want one that makes the screen look turned off from the sides...kinda like the one they have for blackberry's lol...

That's what the bad MT4G screen is for.

Privacy Screen Protector...NOW WITH PICTURES>>>>

I ordered one from Daydeal.com Yesterday and waiting on it to arrive.
This would make my Third one Yes i know i said 3 but the first 2 had problems and were ordered from a different seller.
anyone out here found any of these that are good and screen and touch buttons work if so where did you find it at..
i'm still waiting on my one from daydeal
EDIT: Pics of the screen protector taken from my wife HERO
Tried to get a pic of where i had to cut out the opening for the camera (front)
Hey how did that screen protectore from Daydeal.com Work out? does it make it harder to touch the screen? are the capacative buttons functional with the protector on? is there a cut out for the front facing camera?
thanks for the info!!
I'm thinking about getting a 4 way privacy screen for a ipad and cutting it down to size since I can't find one cut for the evo.
I have a 2 way now but it doesn't work well in landscape and I had to cut the bottom of it to get the buttons to work. I also think it is to thick. It makes it difficult to do multi-touch.
I'm hoping since the ipad is nothing but touch that the products available for it might me a little thinner and more capable of multi-touch. Wish 3M would get in gear and realize that more people than just BB users want to protect their privacy. Not that a 4.3" screen is a beacon for prying eyes or anything....
The screen (privacy) protector from daydeal.com works great the buttons work perfectly the only issue is the front camera is not cut out but you can fix that with a hobby knife with no problem I'll post a pic soon of the screen protector on my phone with the camera cut out.

i had the clarivue and it worked great... it did have some spots where the finish came off.. around the edges but it wasnt bad.
i had to change the screen of my phone so i lost it but now that i dont have a screen protector makes me like how good the screen looks. not bad like before.
i ordered a clear protector now... dont think i will go back to the anti-figerprint or privacy.
Well I guess I can post up some pics... I bought a Privacy screen that came out to $7.99 including shipping from EBAY. It came with 3 screens, all privacy.... The first one was kind of peeling from the top but did the job... take a look see....the screen is on regular backlight in all pics exept 1
that cut on the top looks crappy.. but the peeling happend to be too from clarivue. it was also around some edges. i liked the screen but i now have a crystal clear... i have tried all but the mirror type protectors... and i will stay with clear...
when i had my screen changed not to long ago i noticed the huge differance in the way the screen look in a privacy vs clear... you cant beat the clear... at least for me.
i gave it some thought... if someone can see my screen well enough to read the screen then they are too damn close to me anyways lol

Same one I got from eBay. The cut on top doesn't obstruct the camera or sensors and the guard goes from top to bottom with no gaps. Buttons and touch are still very sensitive.
If not for that peeling corner (got it here too) this would be a complete WINNAR!
I wouldn';t be able to stand my screen looking that dim and crappy.
What are you guys like porn addicts or something? I know none of you are important enough to have secrets that actually need hidden when you are walking around on your phones.

Yes. We are all very important porn addicts trying to hide our shameful screens. If you're not a fan of privacy screens, that's fine - don't troll a thread that others might find helpful.
You don't have to be a porn fan to want a little privacy the protector are useful if you don't want people seeing your password when your typing or drawing it.. Or your text message.. Privacy screens have more uses than just for porn if you want. I have a launch day evo and my screen still looks awesome with the privacy screen on the mirror protector is not useful it doesn't block anything unless you turn down the display brightness and that's no good cause then you can't see your own screen...

well, if your reading an important email, or checking your bank account. a lot of uses for these...

Dust under the screen

So I had my phone out in the sunlight today and I took a close look at it. There's quite a few specs underneath the screen. Most are quite hard to find if you aren't in direct sunlight but there is one that you can find, and now it's bothering me that I know it's there haha.
I know at the end of the day, it's like, who cares, there's always some dust on top too but it'd be nice if it was clean.
Anyone else see any dust?
I had an Atrix that was like that. Bothered the you-know-what out of me. My Nitro, however, has no dust.
None under the screen on mine, had a terrible issue with dust under the screen of my desire, hope it doesn't happen on this one as well.
Hmmm really eh? Have you guys checked under direct sunlight? Wonder if LG would replace it lol

Did you ever get one? I want one mostly to cover a nasty crack on my screen (only visible when screen is off). I figure a privacy or mirror screen protector might hide it.
I see 2 brands coming up in my searches , Empire (inexpensive $2-$6) and Clarivue (expensive $19).

Never got one..wasn't able to find 1 here..but dropped the idea ..I have heard good reviews about Empire n its cheap too..n if it reduces the brightness or anything then u can remove it without suffering huge loss..

I ordered one of ebay and used it for a few months, I wrote a review somewhere on the site, it covers the screen well and can be taken off and reapplied, the problem was that I suffered an almost 30% decrease in brightness and so when out in direct sunlight, you have to change brightness to full which is even more of a battery drain, hope that helps

I got one from Empire. Looked awesome before applying, covers most of the screen. However, after applying I get diagonal annoying lines on the screen . Its unbearable. i took it off.
i want privacy screen protector for my HOX too, but the problem is i also want matte, anti-finger print
at first i was using this kind of screen guard. but after 1 month i changed it to clear one and yeah the screen even better than before..

How many people use screen protectors? Any like Gorilla Glass?

So I've had my HTC One X for a few months now and the minute I took it out of the box I put a screen protector on it, not wanting to get fingerprints on it before I put it on. I put it really well, and I kept it like that for a while til I got really fed up with the texture of the screen protector. I just took it off two days ago and it feels so much better! There really is nothing like gorilla glass. But I'm really paranoid about it and don't want it to get scratched, so I was wondering how many people use screen protectors on their HTC one Xs and how has that faired you, and also are there any screen protectors that feel just like gorilla glass?
I don't use a screen protector. Not yet. So far over 30 scraches and counting. The first few scratches were understandable (who would have guessed a pair of keys would rape the **** out of my display?) If it's the oleophobic coating that's being scratched then this is just ridiculous. he rest popped out of nowhere through normal use.
I think some OneXs just came out of a bad batch. My first OneX scratched way too easily, this second one I got (first started developing yellow spots) haven't gotten any scratches at all.

How long have you had your second one for? And do you use a case?
See what I mean? It's not the first time i read about people's screens not being prone to scratches after getting a new handset. Even my friend who owns the one x has not got one single scratch. I'm starting to really get pissed off at htc.

Honestly I know how you feel. I've been disappointed a couple of times with my One X since I got it, in fact I only started being satisfied with it at all once I got rid of Sense. Hardware-wise, though, yeah it could be better, battery life and colors, even. I just hope that mine isn't one of the ones prone to scratches... I really can't afford another one right now, and I would totally buy one anyways @[email protected]
I never used a screen protector on my one x and i have it pretty much since it was released. Don't have a single scratch on my screen yet, the trick is to be careful and not putting the phone and the keys in the same pocket.

Now that does make me feel better.
I use an Invisible Shield HD, and its near impossible to tell anything is on the phone. Only in direct sunlight is it visible, and that is only the edges that can be seen, only slightly. I also had 3 scratches on the screen, and they can't be seen anymore.

Yeah I agree, no scratches on mine, BECAUSE I LOOK AFTER IT
I don't do stupid things like putting it in a pocket with other stuff and then wonder why it's scratched? That's like cleaning your car with a stone and then saying it's more prone to scratches than everyone else's car.

I used my HTC sensation for 11 months with no screen protector and didn't have one scratch on it.
My HOX however I put a zagg screen protector on it straight away. I want to keep it in good condition for resale value in the future.
Apparently zagg have brought out a HD screen protector that doesn't have the orange peel touch effect, I'm searching everywhere but can't find these in the UK at the moment even though you can buy them from the zagg.com

Had my One X for 3 months and I've never had a screen protector on it or a case and it has no marks on it at all, just gets a little dirty cause I'm a mechanic.

Famous last words!...
I use a case (jelly) but not screen protector. I used a screen protector for about a month on my old desire hd and it was horrible. AND I forked out for an expensive one. Ruins the display and feels clammy to swype on. If you're careful, the screen doesn't get scratched really anyway, imo. It won't stop the screen cracking if you do drop it awkwardly either, which to me is the main worry.
Conclusion: If you bought your phone to enjoy it, don't get a screen protector 'cause they're horrible, if you didn't buy it to enjoy it, sell it and get yourself an old 3310.

My one x is full of microscratches (the ones you can only see tilting your phone in direct sunlight).
I'm EXTRA careful with my phones, and I've never had this problem before with my other htc phones (diamond, diamond 2, HD2, DesireHD, Sensation) some people say it's the coating or whatever, there's even an online petition to ask htc to solve this problem.
Use a screen protector! This phone is extra sensible to microscratches, you've been warned.

Using a Brando UltraClear screen protector, it's simply unbeatable. And yes, I did try Zagg's, Martin's, etc..
I work in a though enviroment from time to time so i don't wanna take any chances.
I use bestskinsever.com Best screenprotector I've ever had, and its much cheaper then the once from Zagg.com

Privacy screen

Is there a privacy screen protector for this phone?
I asked around but heard nothing as of yet.
Only ever seen the one on Amazon from Handheld Items for $10

Haven't seen a 'privacy' one yet, though I know many people use matte protectors for the effect, though they have a wider angle of viewing. I personally have the Poetic FlipBook which I keep open at an angle when I'm trying to keep my message private - that way, I don't have a screen protector at all (which feels great) and I can take the case off easily when I'm at home or in bed.
Try capdase.

I'm using their Klia one and it's nice. Never try the Privacy though.
