Are there any good screen portectors out there that dont compromise my screen quality? I saw someone with a matte textured screen protector on his iphone which looked neat, but are there any that would effect screen quality for the E4GT? Finger print resistance would be a great plus too.

I found the basic sprint OEM clear screen protector are pretty cool and does the job.

I've tried:
SGP Ultra Fine
SGP Ultra Oleophobic
Sprint clear/matte
Reallook Crystal
The SGP Ultra Oleophobic is anything but, it got terribly messy quick. The SGP Ultra Fine takes away too much of the screen quality due to its matte finish. By far my favorite is the Reallook Crystal. These fit the best, are inexpensive, (2 in a package) and don't seem to fingerprint as bad as other crystal protectors I have used. They also do not reduce screen quality at all, it's the best protector I have used on the E4GT.
I tried several different dry and wet application types and ended up with sgp steinheil ultra crystal. You dont even know its there except that it gathers fingerprints a bit faster than no protector.
I've been using Ghost Armor since my Evo and I love it. It's $35 for the whole phone and only a $5 replacement charge for whenever you want it redone. It also carries over from phone to phone.

I have used zagg dry and wet and have put the sprint oem protectors on customer phones. The zagg dry is awesome. I have had problems with the wet in the past but bought it anyway when I got my et, and it came off right away. Got the dry model and it is substantially better.

+1 on this one also.
I've tried a whole mess of screen protectors for all my phones and I always end up back with SGP Ultra Crystal. I hate matte finishes because they make screens look like garbage so I usually lean towards the clearer versions
I have had several people comment that they couldn't even tell that i had a screen protector on (which is the look I am going for). Downside is, because it feels so close the the original glass, it also attracts fingerprints just like the glass would but this is not a deal-breaker for me. If you ever buy a "cheaper", no-name version, some of them actually look almost as good initially but I have noticed they tend to scratch WAY easier than SGPs.
Hope this helps
+1 on Steinheil here as well, easily the best screen protector you can buy. I have the Ultra Crystal and my only complaint is that it attracts fingerprints a little quicker than I'd like it to.. but this is true for all crystal protectors. Keep a microfiber cloth at home

Yep another vote for sgp ultra crystal. Best quality screen protector I've ever had and as an added bonus, the easiest and fastest install i've ever had. literally took a few sec to align and bam it's on. no dust underneath or anything.
Got the SGP ultra crystal and it's really easy, fingerprints collect but easy to apply.
I've used www.clearprotector.com in the past and my phone survived many falls without a broken screen or scratches.

You guys know that it's just a piece of plastic right?
I heard the Xo skins are decent but these sgp ultra crystal look interesting too. I have a zags screen protector now and I'm not a fan of it. Fingerprints, 'orange peel' look and although mine was used there are colored specs visible in some light, idk kinda weird.

I was always a fan of Boxwave's screen protectors. I don't use anything now because of my Otterbox, but they were always great with other phones I had.
I'm getting my replacement phone tomorrow so I'm doing an order for my screen cover from Hand Held Items. So far I have been really pleased with their service, and all the stuff I have ordered for my poor Incredible.
Seidio sells what you want, you get 2 for $15. Best to order from a place where shipping is free.
I personally like these kind. Zagg are hype.
SGP ultra crystal is by far the best screen protector out there. level 4 hardness, ultra smooth glass like swype, no change in sensetivity, easy installation and great price. interested in seeing the new ultra optics anti-fingerprint, anti-glare with optical qualities of the ultra crystal.

+2 on the SGP Ultra Crystal. Though I just switched to the Ultra Fine anti-glare / fingerprint. It took a little getting used to, but in the end I am happy I made the switch.
Recently picked up these: http://phonedevil.com/
Fitment isn't absolutely perfect, but they are easy to apply and give a feel almost identical to glass.
My sgp ultra crystal is great visually. Its only noticeable by finger when you have excessive oil. Daily use, its been great!
+1 For the SGP. I have it and it feels great. Plus, you can't see that its there and it doesn't even sacrifice viewing angles.

I've tried lots of them and can't recommend much else but the Zagg. The only time I notice it is if there is light reflecting off of it when the screen is off and I can see the "orange peel" effect. These are the only shields that I can beat the crap out of and they don't scratch.
Back from the dead I see. Im still using the same ones I bought which are good only if you have a case cuz you can really feel them from the sides without it.

I'll vouch for Realook also. I used it for my Vibrant and now I'm using it for my S2.
The only downside to this screen protector is it will bubble (without modification) if you're using the D30 case due to the super tight fitment. There's some tricks you can do to avoid bubbling. Just do a search.
Amazon is selling a pair of the screen protectors for a very low price of $12!

Gadget Guard
http://www.gadgetguard.com/
I have this on my, phone, laptop, gps, my kids iPods. I put this on 30 Panasonic toughbooks at work and also about 10 different tablets. I won't buy another product ever again.
Pros: It heals itself if you use a stylus and it leaves makes they will go away, if i get a small scratch in an hour it will be gone. This doesn't include major damage. 100% life time guarantee, whatever the reason, if your gadget guard fails to live up to their high standards they will replace it, free, for the life of your device.
Cons: Dry install was a little tough, Wet install was easier but it is a little scary for electronic devices, If you wet install it will take a few days for all the little bubbles to disappear it goes faster if you let it sit in the sun.
I've been look around to find a nice screen protector to use. I've been using a crappy $1 from eBay, which don't get me wrong does the job, but I'm looking for something nicer. Something with more quality and maybe a different option, like oleophobic or something.
I've been looking around and reading a lot of reviews. It seems I'm stuck and I can't decide.

Your screen protectors scratch easily? I don't even think that they are near necessary with this phone. I've had mine for about 5 and a half months, I work construction and carry it around in my pocket without a case or screen protector and I don't have a single scratch on the thing. It's neigh invulnerable the only damage to it is a thin scratch along the bottom back by the speaker but its not on the glass so I don't care.
The Zagg Invisibleshield is pretty good, but it has kind of an orange peel look to it. I've only been told good things about the Steinheil Ultra Crystal screen protectors. You could always try that, or the other screen protectors they have.

XO skins does a great job little less orange peel look and not quite as sticky as zagg invisible shield though both are good products priced about the same. I've used both xo on my e4gt now zagg on my evo 4g.
Check out the Steinheil screen protectors (Amazon search: Steinheil Epic 4g Touch). They are pricey, but well worth it. I have the Ultra Crystal on mine and although it still picks up fingerprints they wipe right off with a microfiber cloth. I've had it on since I got my phone 4 months ago and there is not a single scratch on it anywhere. They do have different types (like the oleophobic) so you should find what you're looking for.

I'm using the one that came with my otterbox, its crystal clear and doesnt attract minor scratches
Ok, now i don't want the Fantom...im torn between the AmorSuit MilitaryShield and the ZAGG invisibleSHIELD. Im also looking for a case, and my top option is the Seidio Active with kickstand.I love the idea of a kickstand. I find myself often trying to put something on the back of my phone to hold it on my desk in "dock" position.
I can thoroughly recommend the Steinheil Ultra Oleophobic.
Easy to fit with no bubbles, great looking glass-like finish and far less annoying finger prints than the glass screen. I'm nearly completely over my obsessive screen cleaning issues!

+1 for this. I have used several other screen protectors (ZAGG, Spigen, Clarivue and a couple of others), and this one, while not the easiest to get on, works great. Great feel and I like the way the screen looks when it is on. Because it is a matte protector, it is not invisible, but no real orange peel and it is not sticky at all - great finger feel on the screen! And cheap as well!
I hated any screen protector that I put on my Galaxy Nexus, after buying it I put on an Xtremeguard wet apply full body, after 4 months, I took it of.
Screen protectors suck and reduce the usability on the phones at times, some of them are pretty sticky or not as slippery and smooth as the glass.
PIE from AOSPA has never been so easily, I still use a case, but I bought my phone to actually use it, and I've been affecting my usability by babying it. It'll be so worth it unless you're really that paranoid about a scratch here and there.
No screen protector doesn't work for me. I work in a machine shop and metal chips find their way in my pockets daily. I prefer the non anti-glare 3 pack from Walmart or target. I forget the brand but they're cheap enough and don't interfere with usability.
