So I had a Zagg screen protector - and it was just TOO rubbery and orange peel-ish.
Ordered a XO skin - was super excited and got it today. However they shipped me the TOTALLY wrong cover. I just ordered the screen part itself. What I got looks like something that would go to a blackbeery or some sort of flip phone (it has two seperate small pieces)
Anyone else ever go thru this? I emailed the site (waiting on a reply) but I'm slightly disappointed.
The quality of the screen protector itself looks awesome and I can't wait to get the right piece but how do you send someone a flip phone piece when you order a honking huge galaxy nexus protector?
Their customer support is pretty good. I had them send me a replacement screen protector for free... I'm sure they'll resolve your issue really quickly.
I've read about this happening a few times. Don't worry, it is frustrating but the customer support is great and they will ship out the correct protector to you.. hopefully
I've heard of this happening a few times as well. It hasn't happened to me yet though. lol. (knock on wood). As stated though, their customer service is phenomenal! If you tell them what happened they'll sort it out right away.
Thanks for the reassurances guys
I was just worried I might get some sneaky stuff from them like "oh sorry about that, send the incorrect one back to us and as soon as we get it we will ship out the correct one" which at this point it with all the back and forth it would be a month from the time I ordered to the time I get the correct one.

exactly same thing that happened to me!!! I ordered on thurs, got it yesterday and it was a protector for iPad...I contacted them on the site yesterday and still waiting for reply
Don't worry, their customer service is really good. They messed up my order too, it takes them 2 days sometimes to respond but they will send you another one free and whatever one you have you just keep. They've replaced mine when I complained about a small dent on mine no questions asked.
Please excuse our mistake, I will get you the correct skin sent out today.
Thank you and have a great day.

Looks like I dont have to return the iPad one! They indeed have good reputation for customer service!
received my XO skin today. they sent me a case fit when I ordered an edge to edge. Contacted them through email and awaiting a response.
They as a company must be taking a pretty large loss with all these miss shipments. Would be prudent for them to get their shipping department in order.
I applied the skin and it looked flawless after 2 hours. I spent 15 minutes blow drying it, alternating from warm to cold air on low setting. the warm air sped up the smoothing out process for me. Anyway, it looks good, but I didn't want a case fit as I use a Ringke case and it doesn't overlap the screen.
They didn't mess up my order. It happens though. I've heard nothing but great things about their customer service. just a longer wait. :/
Just an update. received an email just now stating that they will be sending me out a replacement skin plus an extra skin for my troubles, but they said they wouldn't be sending a squeegee or solution which I have plenty of. quick response and excellent customer service. They still need to work on their shipping department.
Well, it happens. They shipped me the wrong screen protector TWICE, one for an iPhone (*shudder*) and one for the Motorola RAZR before finally shipping me the correct one.
Do any of you have the screen with rainbow strips in one half of it? The one for my nexus is like this. Should I contact CS and request a new one?

they will send you a new one. Just remember if you peel back the screen protector to adjust it after sqeegeeing, thats when you may have problems with rainbow effects, or if you have any oil at all on the screen before applying, it will be distributed in the solution during application and cause a rainbow effect. I wish they would say these things in there instructions.
i used soap and water to clean my screen with a soft rag. then I paper toweled it and then used an air duster to remove the paper towel particles. Probably didnt need to go to those extremes, but im anal about how my screen looks, and my screen looks flawless.
As others have said, steam up your bathroom and apply in there if you have problems with dust particles.

They are great. My first sp peeled up and they sent a new one. Then I got a case and ordered a case fit. They shipped a standard fit sp. I emailed them and 5 days later had the right sp. No questions asked, great service.

i've had my feather for about 3 weeks and loved it, but I took a ride on my motorcycle last night and presumably the phone was pressed up hard to my leg while in my pocket. some kind of stress that it went through cracked the part under the speakerphone hole - i had never dropped it before. so beware, that part of the case is a little weak.
luckily, incipio has an amazing warranty policy and will be sending me a replacement.
Similar thing happened to me. How did you go about the warranty process?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Hmm... I was planning on picking one up but maybe I'll just pick up one of those replacement battery covers.
Same here. I still like the case though. I went through like 4 of them under warranty when I had a Nexus One.
the case doesnt seem very durable, has anyone dropped their phone with this case?
Mine cracked by the volume rocker. They are quite brittle. Even with the good warranty policy, I'm going to look for a different case.
Mine broke in the same place. Never dropped it.
I've yet to try to warranty it though. I just put a little super glue there and it's good as new.
I always keep my phone in either a speck or otterbox, and when I go to sell it a year later since it looks brandnew I'll make more money off than what I bought the phone for which is why I wont use any of those slim cases

Wow, mine broke exactly on the same spot. I never dropped it..
The spot it is breaking in looks like the place its broken of the mold at the factory. Case feels a little rough at that part.

meh ----- not a big deal as long as the atrix doesnt break.
i had the same case until i dropped it of the table and the case dropped and shot off and chipped the corner of the atrix
well days later the case just broke

should have kept it. i just got a replacement for free, all i sent in was a picture of the damage and my order number. it was almost instantaneous and they didn't ask for it back. i also was able to order the new red color instead even if you didn't want it anymore, you could have just sold the replacement.
I was debating whether to get an otterbox case (commuter or impact) or the incipio feather, and I ended up getting the otterbox. It's a lot more durable. I feel like the feather is more decorative then useful...
Mine broke just from removing it from the phone maybe 10 times since I got it....the rubber starts to come off too close to the fingerprint reader and the edges of the case. I really like the lightweight design. Otterbox is too bulky.....I have the Speck case and that is already too much bulk for me.

I got mine from radioshack and it cracked in the same place as the creator of this thread. Is it possible to get a replacement on it if i didn't get it online though? I see u mentioned an order number =/ So now im starting to scratch my head and getting ready to cross my fingers.... Its a nice case and the thinnest one so i wouldn't mind getting a replacement considering it was $24. I have never dropped my phone with it in the case, but somehow it just snapped while it was in my pocket

Of course you can still get a warranty replacement from Incipio if you bought from RadioShack. I would call Incipio @ 800.733.0088 (US Toll Free) or email them @ [email protected] to find out about a replacement (info taken directly off Incipio's Website).
If you are within 30days of buying it from RadioShack, I would try to see if RS would exchange it for you in store- to avoid shipping and wait time.
you can also talk to online support and they will give you the proper steps. if you have a receipt of the purchase i think it'd be fine; luckily for me since it's online they didn't ask me to send it in, i don't know how that would work out for ones bought from vendors.
anyway, here's the new red one they sent me. the color is amazing; it looks completely different (maroon -> brilliant red) depending on the lighting and angle.

Damn that looks HOT! I want the red!!! I hope incipio makes more colours...like a dark purple
So I got my TPU fusion case from ambitronic.com today and let me say, the case is beautiful. Consider the amazing price and it's an unbeatable deal. With a 10% coupon code I found and adding a screen protector it was just under $7.00 shipped. I ordered it in the evening hours, it shipped the next day, and arrived 3 days later from California to Missouri, not bad at all. Unfortunately the screen protector I ordered didn't include the soft card and one of the stickers on the screen protector got stuck to it and left behind residue. Without the soft card I was unable to install it correctly and ended up tossing it in the trash, but at .95 cents I can't really complain, but wish I could have used it.
i have one too & it's a good case for the price...lame that it doesn't come with the card, good to know. for 95 cents, you really can't complain. you can always use a credit card or driver's license... (i'm in NY & they're pretty flexible...), for future reference.
Ordering one online now, hope that it's as good as everyone says it is!
I tried a debit card but it didn't really make a difference with the adhesive stuck on it, cause by the time I got that off, it was pretty much useless. The site says it comes with a soft card, so I assume most of them do, I just didn't have one in my package. Still loving the case tho. To hit the power button takes a little getting use to as you have to press it a little harder than normal with the case on, but it doesn't bug me that much after a couple days use.
i need to get one

give the case some time to wear in, about a week or so. the buttons will get softer to press over time. Ive had my case for about 6 months now and its perfect
Good to know about the buttons getting softer. Just got an email from Ambitronic this morning, I sent a link to this thread to them, they apologized for taking a few days to get back to me, blaming the rush of Touchpad accessories, which I completely understand, and offered to either refund the .95 or send me another screen protector, so the only down side I had they are taking care of. Excellent customer service. Highly recommend anyone to order from them, I know I will in the future.

Yes, their customer service is pretty stellar. I've never had a problem with them before.
I just ordered tons of stuff from them. Great prices great stock. Live the fusion cases,
Just a funny factor. The fusion case does not really work work the chargers they sell.. Had to trim the case for the chargers to fit lmao.. That's the only negative thing I've found so far...

This case is hands down the best bang for your buck case I have ever bought for any of my phones. I got it for about $5 on eBay, and its quality and performance is on par with $30 cases I've bought in the past. As for screen protectors, I've always bought from an eBay seller, XtremeGUARD. If anyone's interested, here's a link:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/XtremeGUARD-HTC-My-Touch-4G-Premium-Screen-Protector-/230605503209?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item35b128bae9
Best screen protector I've ever used. Easy to put on, crystal clear, and extremely durable. It uses a soap and water mix as an adhesive, so it's nearly impossible to put it on incorrectly.
this case is pretty awesome gotta say. when i saw it i was like "man i want this case" xD, looked so good. But yeah the only charger that really fits in is the one i got when i first had the phone, can't use any others really because they'll fit just enough to plug in but its' easy to dislodge the charger from the plug, but oh well not that big a deal to me
that screen protecter i might look into cuz i kinda messed up with the one i have now, it's placed on correctly now, but i didn't get it that great the first time so it's kinda dusty but you barely notice it unless the screen's off.

It's practically impossible to mess up the XtremeGuard protector. Since you cover the protector in the soap/water mix, it slides around on the surface of the screen, making it easy to align perfectly or redo if some dust gets on the screen. Once you're satisfied, just let it sit a little before you squeegee out the water bubbles, then let it sit and dry into place.

They made everything right with me, ordered a couple other things too for my touchpad and everything I've gotten from them is awesome quality for the price
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

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 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.

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.

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)

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.

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.
This website here gives a walk-through: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-remove-Logos-from-your-PDA--cell-phone-wit/
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.

FYI I contacted the seller at 10pm, and I just got a response at 11:30pm, response below.
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.

Has a 75% off when you buy 2 or more. check it out, great skin!
code Xtreme75
video I did:
The screen protector is okay, but it's too big and the edges flake off/peel up.
Have they resolved that yet?

I have no problems with it. I could take a picture of the phone now that its been on for nearly 2 weeks now. its smooth, no blemishes, fits nicely, cut is pretty spot on.....
the only hitch i had was using a generic case, it would peel the edge/corners but I quickly got rid of that case and got another, even now you cant tell the other case peeled it up, the skin has the same finish and look on all parts of it.
I feel like a salesperson for XtremeGuards, I am that happy with it.

+1 on that...
the cut out is perfect..not sure what the other member meant. as long as it doesnt go OVER the edge then it shouldnt have a problem with peeling...
also worth mentioning is that their customer service is REALLY good. mine came and they missed the back piece. emailed them, got back to me within a day and had the replacement mailed already. to my surprise when it came they also threw in an extra front piece.
thanks
Will these work well with a Diztronic/tight tpu case? the Skinomi techskins get lifted..
Edit: Nvm should've read thread more carefully...

did you look at how to install it before you bought it? I mean at such a inexpensive price I can easily see why someone wouldnt look at the installation instructions, but curious if you did.
Does this screen protector cover the whole screen like spg and could you include pic as well

Fantastic deal
I wish I didn't pull the trigger on the Zagg so fast, even at 50% off it was still $16.00 --- and then BOOM immediately after a couple of competing products for less... This one is PENNIES...
Fantastic find....... But I already bought the Zagg sheild.
Actually picked one up for my S3 already but like the one that I put on first. So I got another one plus one for my Tab 10.1. Five bucks total with free shippng. Hell of a deal. Figure I'll put one on the Tab first to see if it's worth yanking the one on my S3 off or not. We'll see!
