Here is a shot from the top

I really want to pick one of these up since I have heard such good things about them. However, I am curious about how you prevent the liquid from getting into the ear piece when applying the protector. Is there a trick to covering the ear piece?

Yes, I have this on my phone also and its amazing, virtually no orange peel and looks great. Highly recommended!

just man up, don't use toooooo much solution and pat dry...
make sure you take out the battery and DON"T put it back in after as the phone will reboot.
just install and wait over night with cool air blowing over it.
i know it will be tough not to touch your new toy, but without US warranty work, not worth it.

The solution they have dries really quickly, they added some substance it in, so even if the tiniest bit gets in there, you shouldn't worry too much, unless you spill the whole bottle in there lol
EDIT: this is speaking from the person who DRENCHED the screen protector before applying lol

Does it go right to the edges of the screen?

I got one ordered this weekend hopefully arriving soon.
How difficult was the application? I'm not too keen on wet application (Zagg, ugh) but is it pretty much drench, lay it on the screen and shift to center ASAP? Past experience with Zaggs, I've usually had to lay it perfectly on the first try since I wouldn't be able to shift it around afterwards.

FYI, "byublue", as mentioned earlier, takes $3 off, which is slightly better than 20%.

I'm assuming all wet applications should be the same, which means that your experience with zagg will be similar with xo.
You wouldn't be able to shift it around after its applied. However, you can peel it upwards, apply some more liquid, then place it back down
Did that with my skinomi, had no problem with it, should work with all wet screen protectors

Got mine today and applied it tonight. It was my first wet application, and it was WAY easier than the (dry-apply) SGP Crystal I had on my Dinc.

It goes very close to the edge of the screen.
No orange peel
No rainbow effect
As I said before... highly recommended

Any drag or slow down with swiping along the protector?

Not at all its slick

So I've never done a wet install. Basically I get as much of the liquid out as possible and then wait overnight for it to settle?

I don't think people realize that, sure even though your device isn't damaged from the liquid solution that may or may have leaked into the phone. BUT it probably set off the water damage sticker inside voiding your warranty.
That's the biggest fear for most people including myself.

Flygrip

Hey guys, I was browsing through some threads and stumbled upon this curious contraption called Flygrip. It's like a brace that you slip your finger through that you put on the back of the phone. It improves more stability and allows easier access to the screen because you don't have to fully grip the phone. This is probably useful especially with the Nexus because it has a rather large screen.
Anyone have any experience on this? I'm thinking of buying one and trying it out because it looks really handy.

I dunno. I think it would make it more awkward with one hand and 2 handed isn't needed.
I like the direction their going though. Creative thinking.
Galaxy Nexus - 4.0.3 CM9
Asus Transformer - 3.2 Revolver

A creative product, but ultimately more hassle than it's worth. A phone case will protect it from falls; this product reduces the likelihood of drops but does nothing for you if you do.
And you have to remember to carry around your phone and this Flygrip. And you'll constantly be answering the question, "what's that?"

maybe everyone has small hands but i dont seem to have a problem only using 1 hand

What if you stick it on to your phone case?

I guess you could, but that seems cumbersome... You'd have a bulge in your pocket for sure, and then you'd be dealing with a whole new set of questions...

I wish there was a vote up button.. I just thank people that I think are witty
In terms of the product.. I do agree it would bring a slew of questions and I'm not sure how much help it would actually be.. guess I should try it before I say anything negative though.

A perfect example of a solution for a problem that doesn't exist.
Can't wait for the follow up product that allows you to strap a phone to your face so you don't miss that important message.

Actually, I think this is pretty cool. While it certainly isn't necessary, it looks actually pretty useful. I just ordered one for myself. I have smaller hands and the gNex has been a bit of a challenge lately since I can't text or browse one handed anymore. It comes with a free case (they're getting a batch of gNex cases in next week) so I'm going to attach it to the case or maybe just put it on one of the other cases I ordered. Oh and if you wan't free shipping, use the code "IDIOT".

I can't tell if your post was one long setup to a snarky punchline, or if "idiot" is an actual discount code.
The world may never know.

lol, sorry for sounding snarky. I totally didn't mean it to come out that way although that's definitely how it reads. "IDIOT" actually is the discount code. I found it by googling it (http://sideshownetwork.tv/category/shows/iotw).
I really did order this so as silly as it may appear to be, I don't mind being a guinea pig. I'll post my thoughts on it and the gnex case when it arrives hopefully next week sometime.

it does look interesting, altho useless.
apple brand it, and they've got themselves a winner.

I just wanted to bump this thread. I just put in an order for one after being on the fence for a while and will let you guys know how it is!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKNUkB9N1Yg
That review kinda pushed me over the edge and with that "IDIOT" code (it gave me option to choose Next-Day shipping...for free), I was down to check it out.

Looks ghetto as hell but seems pretty functional since I always have problems reaching around the screen with one hand. I wouldn't mind getting one to try but getting it internationally shipped would probably add even more to the already steep price...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk

You had me interested until I saw the price. $30 is way too much for what it does.

i picked one up out of curiosity... i like it. it's nice to be able to reach everywhere with your thumb and not have to reposition or oddly balance your phone. gimmicky ? yeah, kinda. will it become a must have on my phone ? i dunno, still getting use to the feel and i need to adjust the position of it a bit. there isn't a way to temporarily fit it in order to know exactly where you need to mount it so it's kinda trial and error for what's most comfortable. i ordered a couple spare mounting pads so i can dial it in then see how i like it.
they should cut down on the bells and whistles packaging and sell it for 8 bucks, that's what i see the retail value of something like this. i think they'd easily sell 5x the amount for 1/3 the price.

Very cool product. My main hesitation of using something like this, is the fact that it's a "permanent" fixture on your phone - unless you sacrifice a case and adhere the fly grip to it.
My second problem is the price. $30?? I would have thought no more than $5...

White Galaxy Nexus Housing Installed [VERIZON]

Be prepared to hate me. It took quite a bit of modification and I do not recommend anyone to do it because its a pain in the ass and its better just to wait for the real Verizon housing to come out. I used to GSM white housing and modified it to fit, for the most part at least.
I also had to use a ****ty webcam because that's all I had to work with that can take pictures in my apartment. You can see that I was trying to hide behind the phone.

If I can find a way to get a hold of a decent camera then I may explain but it really isn't worth it and you can easily screw it up. Also the damn housings are like $50 USD and take 2 weeks to ship from that Germany guy. Who knows by the time you get it we might already have the White LTE Nexus.

Yes, what was once a nice looking piece of plastic is now a mangled mess on the inside. But of course the battery door covers it all up. If this thing gets in water there is no saving it. I had to do a LOT of cutting and shaving and grinding.

Granted it does look good on the outside, next time I would just spray paint the original chassis white or just wait.

You should totally mod it to fit and send the housing to me for me to put on. Ill pay ya ;D

White Housing for GSM Nexus is $25 shipped on eBay for a limited stock, doesn't include the battery door. The barebones Silver goes for $13, so this is pretty good. I snatched one up, as my White Housing is scuffed up but my door is fine.

Who is going to be the first to try NeverWet on their phone?

There is a new product on the market, sold at Home Depot, called NeverWet that promises to make everything waterproof. Check out the video and towards the end they waterproof an iPhone. This looks like some pretty amazing stuff!
http://youtu.be/DZrjXSsfxMQ

Looks awesome. Just don't know if I'm willing to try it on my $800 Note II. Luckily I have a old E4GT that I don't care about. And its in stock and & only $20 at my local Home Depot. Will post back with my results.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2

Just got this amazing stuff today! Tried it with shirt first, its drying right now. I'm going to try my shirt first then my shoes and then a couple of old cellphones before my G2x and finally if i see enough i will attempt the Galaxy S4. This is soo much cheaper than liquipel.

Looks like some crazy stuff. I saw their video on the Chive a week or two ago.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium

I just tried this on my LG G2x and i can confirm it work. I dod not submerge my phone in water, i just splashed the circuit board with some water. You have to completly coat the parts you dont want water to get to. Best way is to create a seal so that water wont get to parts where you dont want water to get to and cat neverwet it.
I can confirm that NeverWet does NOT conduct electricity. I sprayed the battery contacts and i had to scratch the NeverWet off with a knife. My phone would not turn on with the NeverWet coating on the battery contacts.

The thing I want the most from next generation of phones is for them to just be tougher. I want them water proof (liquipel pretreated) , shatterproof (flexible displays) , and power strong (next gen lithium ion batteries).

This definitely looks awesome. I think I am going to test it on my back cover of my note 2. To make sure it doesn't affect the paint or anything. I can always get another back. Can't wait to try it. May post a review on here or probably a video. I will also try it on my seidio surface case. Too bad can't do it in the screen or front of phone. Probably no point in doing it to the back in that case. I guess we'll see

I wouldn't... The stuff does not dry transparent from what I've read. If it isn't transparent enough for car windshields, color me a skeptic at it looking good on a smartphone

want to try this so bad, just not a fan of dissecting my phone into pieces, wish we could just do the exterior and protect it from getting into the inside of the phone, going to buy this stuff tonight and use on my shoes and stuff, and maybe one daring day ill do it on an older phone i dont care too much about anymore.
plan on using it to protect my shoes during the warrior dash.

Interesting the video shows a phone but the instructions in the package state NOT to use on electronics.

I was thinking the same thing. I have an old 4G EVO as well and it should be put to good use.

After reading more info on this I will not be trying on my phone. I'll stick to using this on other items though. But if anyone uses it on their phone definitely post it here. It's still a cool product. This would be awesome on a tent or umbrella.

I bought some from home depot last week put it on my work boots. I paint traffic controll markings and the neverwet doesnt even repel our water base paint we use, sticks right to it. Also it rubbed off in about a day or two. I tried putting it on my seidio active case and it dried frosted looking and almost white in some spots and it wore off in about 5 minutes, from taking it in and out of my pocket. I would definitely not try it on my phone it might work a little while but I wouldnt trust it. I would only buy it to mess around with it has almost no real practical use cause it rubs off so easy.

I have an old EVO 4G I could try it on. Will report back.

For all those times I talk underwater or in rain storms...oh wait

Could be a stress fracture. If you ever carry your phone in your jeans pocket and sit down, it could have stressed the bezel enough to crack.

It's part of the chassis, you'd have to literally remove every single part from the phone, including the screen/glass, to replace it.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/OEM-Hous...lePhoneAccessories&hash=item19e3905929&_uhb=1
The display/front glass assembly is glued to the chassis so if you try to remove it, you'll likely break it, or at the very least get tons of dust under the screen. Sucks, but you just gotta live with it.

I do. I use one of the strongest cases which are the UAG's. Ive only dropped the phone once without a case by falling off the bed onto a tile floor. No noticeable damage to the phone aesthetics other than the line near the spen. But I don't think that little fall caused this.

Doesn't bother me. When I first saw it I thought it was apart of the phone. But I will however trade my note 3 because my proximity sensor has been broken for a month now ?

Wish I saw this post yesterday when I went into my rant about build quality...

What I didn't mention is this happened in a t-mobile store as I was trying this case on during my lunch break. Went back to store and they said there is nothing they can do, even with the manager there I pleaded. So a hairline crack will not be taken care of unless you feel like paying your $175 deductible or whatever it is.
Samsung can't care less, and left another angry voice mail with incipio.

Not buying another Samsung until build quality improves
