Dear customer,
There has been issues with this case and previous models have been withdrawn from the market.
It is in production once again and we are expecting to receive stock later this month or at the begining of June.

A lot of people had issues with that cover scratching the back of their phone, maybe they changed the desing a li'l bit to fix this. I Have it and my phone is scratch free. Lucky Me I guess????
Ive had issue with those stains too, what pissed me off is this case also made a faint scratch on the top right body part (near front camera lens). Anyway, anybody have ideas on how to remove this scratch mark??
Yes, I've tried to erase it. Won't come off. Also tried soap and water, alcohol... no results. This is frustrating, my phone looks so old.
I've noticed it is not compatible with skins or more importantly (and practical), screen protectors.
It only works with screen protectors if you cut them which is pretty hard to do. I stopped using mine because of this..

IMO Gorilla Glass is quite reliable, so I'd rather protect the body (which dents/scratches fairly easily) than the screen.
Also got the "Double Dip" case. Mine is exactly.. 2 days old and i already got alot of stains on top.
Tried everything to remove it, alcohol, industrial grade stain remover. nothing, i havent got the scratch problem but who knows that might turn up sooner or later....
Will resort into buying another TPU case or something, this is kinda frustrating none the less...

Better to have denim stains on your case than on your phone like I have. Using an eraser helped but didn't completely fix it.

Based on pics they have up on their site of other phones, and watching a couple of their install videos, I'm really interested in the Skinomi skins... they have plenty of pictures up for other models of phones, but no pictures for the Epic 4G Touch:
http://www.skinomi.com/samsungwithin.html
I sent their customer service a message, telling them I am interested but not willing to order completely sight-unseen since I don't know how the skins will be implemented on this particular phone.
Has anyone used these skins before?
Anyone got one of them on their Epic 4G Touch yet?
I'm hoping it'll be similar to this, since these phones are pretty similar form factor:

I won't buy Skinomi again after their HP TouchPad crap. Ordered a carbon fiber skin for the back of mine. They sent me a email saying it shipped but didn't actually go out til 3 days later. Then When I get it they for whatever reason added a cut out in the back to expose the nasty HP logo instead of leaving it one piece like pictured. The picture of the skin when I bought it was one piece, a few days later they switched it to the one with the center cutout.
I got mine today and installed it and its great. I had one on my inspire and loved it. It takes about 1 to 2 days for it to settle but when it does its like glass. Ill post pics tomorrow when all the solution drys and the bubbles disappear.

You have a skin, or just a screen protector? I'm curious what the layout is. Guessing still that it's like the Inspire links I posted above.

What does it look like before it settles in? I put mine on about 2 hours ago and some spots on the screen look kind of sparkly. Is this normal? Maybe the solution hasn't dried?

By the way, they're available now for $3.95 plus free shipping on Amazon. I ordered a back up because it's a nice protector and so damn cheap. Figured this may be a pricing gimmick by skinomi, first time buyer. Can't go wrong for 4 bucks shipped. I don't mind the friction and it's application process gets rid of any possible air pockets and the rainbowing seems to be minimal and disappearing. Those are the things i was most concerned about. I'm diggin it.
how long did you guys wait to use the phone after applying the screen protector ??
Just to clarify...
... This thread is about the skins, not the screen protector.
Don't get me wrong - I wouldn't mind hearing how those are either, in fact id like to hear if that's all you got - but mostly want to see if the skins are laid out the same way as in the second post:

Since these seem like a great anti-case solution, I'd love to see any pictures, i don't want to buy blind.
Thanks!
I can tell you that I bought a TPU black matte case and a skinomi screen protector and they both look excellent. I have in the past on various phones used Zagg, Ghost Armor and Best Skinz. Skinomi looks as good or better then the Ghost Armor which is the only other brand I would buy again. There is little to none orange peel effect and the feel of it is almost non-existent. Zagg is the only brand i would never ever buy again. The feel of Zagg is comparable to cover being on the phone vs naked and the look leaves alot to be desired also.
For the price on Amazon for the Skinomi, it is a clear winner (no pun intended) in my book.
Good to know...
I'm not a "case" kind of a guy - i like slim and pocketable - but I do have a tpu case on here right now, and would definitely recommend it. My matte black one looks upscale and fits really well, and it's not too thick really.
I just want that mm or two back.
Any pictures?
I'm trying to upload some pictures but it won't let me it keeps giving me a security error.
Here are a few pictures of the carbon fiber skin and the screen protector.
I'm impressed... I think that looks even better than the Infuse!

You need to give these skins at least 24hrs to settle. 48hrs for sure. Assuming the install went well, you should see all bubbles/sparkles disappear.
If you ve followed my videos theres one common factor. MY screen is always dirty, scratched and bubbled. Yes I suck at installing screen protectors lol
This lil guy made things easier. The SGP nano is honestly a bubble free aplication. I, a person who cant put a thing straight for his own life, managed to do a clean perfect installation. And ive been using it since and i cant be happier

Nice review. I'm enjoying mine after a week and a half. Weird question: do you notice that the screen protector seems to shift around slightly? Sometimes mine is perfectly centered, then when I look at it later it's very clearly too far to one side? And eventually it shifts to the other side or re-centers itself. Either my finger swipes are causing it to slide around or I'm hallucinating!
I just installed this today. Very easy install went on perfect first time. Just have to get used to my fingers not sliding across the screen as well. It's super clear tho can't even really tell it's there unless you are looking for it. Nice sp.

Feels just like that glass to me. I think you'll see the initial resistance wears off quickly.

The initial friction you feel goes away and it feels and looks smooth as glass.. I've had mine on for a week and a half now, these things are great. Also, to the guy who said it is sliding around, either you did not install it correctly or you are REALLY putting some pressure into your swipes (even then I don't see these things moving). I have used Steinheill protectors for years, once they are down, they do not move! You are hallucinating.
I just put one on my GS3. Have to admit, its awesome once on. I've had to double check multiple times to make sure its actually there.
Getting it to separate from the back and front covers it ships with was a challenge. I ended up wasting one of the three in the package, but got a good install on my second attempt. Paired mind with a diztronic tpu case. So far no issues -- let's see how it fares long-term.
Does this screen protector have cut outs for the sensors and the camera or is it one solid piece?

It doesn't cover from edge to edge but covers the usable portion of the screen. Tbh u can't even really tell it's there and if u have a case it covers the edge of the screen protector (at least with my case it does).

Ultimate Addons cases are reviewed on Amazon UK. I can't find reviews on Xda forums as yet but don't think they're 100% waterproof. From what I can tell, the seal on the case is waterproof but the lugs on the usb and headphone port might not be.

I believe the case uses a 1 way type of mesh that allows sound out but no fluids in. The otterbox armor series has a similar mesh that allows no water in but sound out. I'd just wait for that case

That's useful information, thanks for that, never crossed my mind that they could do stuff like that. Thanks = )
I have the obex , I absolutely hate worst case I ever owened people can hear you when your usimg the phone , the people on the other line sound muffled , only way to use the phone call option is turning speaker phone on.. but I don't know about you all but don't want everyone to know what I'm talking about
Also when phone in this case as well the back button takes forever to get it to respond and you almost have to force the button down , the built screen protector is ten times worse then the otterbox defender its sensitivity sucks
Would I recommend this case to anyone ? HECK NO !!!
If I could get my money back would I send it back? HECK YES !!!
IM WAITING for the otterbox armor case that looks way better and not a rushed product like the obex was.... they rushed there product to beat otterbox and lifeproof to the sales floor .. thus its a big piece of junk

They were looking into exchanging until I decided to go for the full refund. Even with a refund, you can just purchase a different one and keep the old one.

It's not stained with ink. These cases stain from the dyes in your pockets transferring to the case.
I called and told Google my case was starting to discolor around the edges and received a refund.
I was refunded for my grey case as it stained inside a day. They didn't argue at all, refunded and told me to keep the case. Pity only the black bumper would actually be usable for real world usage.

I was able to contact their customer support and get a refund in the span of about 30 min, which is nice since it has been getting pretty noticable recently. It is to bad as i like the colored cases a lot. Maybe ill just use this one getting discolored for a few months then have a bright red one again in 3-5 months.

Yes, call them or better yet use the website and let them call you back. Just tell them what happened and that the case started to stain and has become unusable and unsightly that while you would expect a light coloured TPU case to get dirty eventually that this case is clearly not fit for purpose as it stained so soon. That the case is at a premium price and that as a result you would expect a premium product which you clearly do not have...they will give you a refund or exchange...if you want/like the black go for that, I dont think any of the others will hold their colour...so if you dont like the black - take the money and run.

Pretty sure they're fake
I'm having a similar problem with mine. Is it happening to all of you only around the edges that are flexible or on the backside too?
Is there anyway to fix these type of scratches? Anyone having the same issues or is is just me?
i tried to post the links of the scratches but this site wont allow me to post any links....
You could stop dropping it.

Its literally impossible to prevent it from dropping all the time, that white coat shouldn't be this vulnerable, as for cases I really hate using them cause they make the device look very ugly.

Really, you can't figure out an answer to your ridiculous question and reject the only two logical solution offered to you (don't drop your phone or buy a case)?

My previous phones have fallen plenty of times without having any type of scratches, even 5 years old phones, i just expected this to endure a little better
Well then you're only option is to buy a new phone.

Well, sorry the Note 4 doesn't meet your expectations. Buy a case or learn to not drop your phone.

is it the metal that's scratching? If so, someone posted a how-to on removing these scratches using a very fine grit sand paper. I'll see if I can find it if you're interested.
This isn't the post I was looking for, but i found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57749236&postcount=1
If you refuse to use a case, you can try using clear nail polish to add a protective layer (obviously not on the screen) . Barring that, you're out of luck.
