I recently emailed them regarding their tempered glass release for the Moto X and their response was that they were currently gauging interest. So I've posted this on G+ and thought I would post here as well. If you email them your interest in their tempered glass; they have 2 kinds. They could possibly release one for our device. Email is: [email protected] if you can.
Thanks!
Mailed them :good:
Mailed em! Now I hope they will do something about AND that the product doesn't SUCK.
I had mailed them a couple nights ago as well. No response back as of yet.
I'm really hoping that they're watching how the sales of this phone is going and commit to this. Looks like an outstanding product
I know this is not necessarily identically related.. But iLoome recently responded to someone on their Facebook page that they are testing a prototype for the Moto X right now. Or at least their Screenmate version. Either way, I'd be excited if either iLoome or MIME decided to make and sell them :fingers-crossed:
Emailed them yesterday as well. Would love to get rid of this terrible Zagg protector.
Mailed them. I love mime ghost glass

For $50 I don't know that I should. Or could. Yikes.
Thanks for the share though and would gladly let someone test it out for us.

Clarivue isn't even selling the XT Glass version anymore on their own website, probably for good reason. I wouldn't trust $50 to a third party on this.
Mime emailed me two days ago and said the ghost glass should be ready in the middle of January

If you don't want to wait for the MIME protector, give iBlason a try. http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Motorola-Ultra-Thin-Tempered-Protector/dp/B00E0CUP18
I am not having the sensor problems you read about. I don't know if they've fixed it, the 4.4 update fixed it, or (as someone suggested) my white-front is somehow different than it being used on the black-front.

I'm a fan. It feels like the glass on the screen. So far it hasn't accumulated any scratches. It is not a finger print magnet either, pretty easy to keep it clean. It was VERY easy to apply - I actually came away with no air bubbles to squeegee out. The edges aren't rounded like the Spigen tR series is, so you can feel a very slight edge if you run your fingers around your phone edge, but it's not irritating in any way if you swipe in from the sides. I paid $17 for it (Prime membership, free 2-day shipping) - I feel like it's an amazing product for the price, especially compared to other similar products (I know Spigen usually runs about $25-30 for their glass protectors).
You'll see a lot of the reviews on Amazon mentioning that their proximity sensor doesn't work with it on - especially noticeable if they're in a call (they'll bring their phone away from their face and the screen doesn't turn on, so they can't end the call, etc.) I didn't have any of these problems. A couple reviewers updated their review mentioning that after the 4.4 Kit Kat update, their problems went away. Some people have also said that the black fronts have the problems, where the white fronts don't. I don't know about all that - all I know is it works just fine for me, tested with many calls.
I can take some pictures this evening after work if anyone wants.
Anybody ever used the ghost glass with an otterbox defender series? I always pull the built in screen protector out of the otterbox and just put another screen protector on the phone. Just wondering if there are any fit problems with the defender and the ghost glass.

I have a Zagg InvisibleShield on my iPad. After applying it I noticed a few little lines that look like perfectly straight scratches but I chalked it up to user error. I went ahead and ordered one for my shiny new Samsung Vibrant and then waited over a week for it to arrive. When it finally showed up I immediately installed it and it went on without a hitch (after my iPad installation I was a PRO).
I noticed immediately that the lines were there (a couple of vertical lines from top to bottom) but I went ahead and waited a little while to see if they would go away. They never went away and are particularly irritating on white backgrounds (like web pages). I decided that I couldn't handle it anymore and wrote in for a refund. Here is the reply I got:
Hello Don,
Thank you for contacting ZAGG, where we are zealous about great gadgets! My name is David and I appreciate the opportunity to assist you.
In regards to your e-mail, the nature of the invisibleSHIELD has some limitations and it seems you have located one of the few. There can, at times, be some considerably small lines that may appear like an incredibly fine hair or scratch and this is an unavoidable quality.
If you would like, we can offer you a one time courtesy replacement for your invisibleSHIELD, but we cannot guarantee that it will be free of lines.
To process your replacement request you will be asked to provide a credit or debit card....
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It goes on to explain how to get the "courtesy replacement" and how to submit my credit card information so that THEY CAN CHARGE ME FOR SHIPPING! If there's a "limitations" to the product and I have "located one of the few" then they should send it to me for free. These "incredibly fine hair or scratch" lines are not acceptable on a phone where the primary selling point is the awesomely clear and 'vibrant' screen.
They did eventually get around to giving me instructions for how to get the refund so that's the route I will be taking. I have already ordered the Realook screen protector so once that gets here I will be sending the Zagg back to them.
Zagg buyer beware. You might get a good one but they "cannot guarantee that it will be free of lines".

I have Zaggs on nearly all of my devices (13, including my Vibrant) and have never once had this issue. I hope this is isolated to just you, and I don't mean that in a bad way...

It's far from just me. Google 'zagg vertical lines' and you will see that there are many people who have had the same problem.
My Realook just showed up. I ordered on Tuesday received in the mail on Thursday where it took the Zagg 9 days to show up. I took off the Zagg and put on the Realook and the difference couldn't be more "clear". If I handed someone my phone and asked if there is a screen protector on it they would say "no" (definitely not the case with the Zagg). It looks and feels like the factory glass and I LOVE IT.
I am definitely going to go with Realook from now on.
could you post a link to where to get the realooks?
Edit: See below for link.
This guy has 100% positive feedback and I see why. I ordered it Tuesday and it showed up on Thursday, from CA to TX, so I couldn't ask for faster shipping (and it's FREE).
I can't stress enough how perfect this thing is. If you want your screen to look and feel like glass this is the protector to get.
I'm having the same issue with the Zagg vertical lines. I actually thought maybe the spray messed up the AMOLED so today I took the screen protector off and the lines disappeared. I'll be contacting Zagg and looking into something else...

Was going to order the clearfreak, but I didn't want to deal with the wet application, then having to deal with the haze & bubbles for a few days.

Just ordered a set of the real look as well...I grabbed some T-Mobile anti-smear screen protectors yesterday and hate those things. They cover only the screen itself, are matte, feel funny and the worst thing, they distort the screen in some whacked way, making the pixels almost iridescent. Needless to say, I ripped it off after an hour!
I am really looking forward to the new ones, after reading a lot of good testimonials!
Thanks for the link!

Mostly likely both are from the same seller.
i too had these lines on my cliq xt, my cliq titanium, my G1, and my laptop. i went to physical store though so they replaced them for free each time, mainly cause im a tmobile account manager with deutche telekom and they dont charge me. but they would have offered to replace them for free anyways they told me because it is a flaw in the product and it shouldnt be present in every shield
Anyone using the REALOOK, does the screen feels sticky like Zagg? I remember getting Zagg for Mytouch, and it felt sticky so I ended up buying PhantomSkinz.
The Realook is as smooth as the glass. Absolutely no friction when using Swype.

If you're going to buy a Realook, there is 10% coupon code flying around. I know it works on Amazon for sure, but dunno about ebay since you have to confirm your buy before using a coupon.
Thanks for sharing. I'm aware.
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.

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.
Anyone know when they'll be available?
Also, what cases will I be able to use with this cover?

i had one with issues, according to ebay page for them in the uk, said there was issue with the first batch and they are awaiting stock
of the new improved versions.
It was up on amazon the other day. I came close to ordering it until i read about the issues with the capacitive buttons over at the international one forum.
As far as the cases goes i'm not sure, but i believe spigen recommends that u use the glass protector along with a case. At least that's what i recall reading from their website.

I used a glass protector once for my GNex and it was a bad idea. The transmittance must be poor even across that small glass layer because touch was very bad around the edges and flaky in the middle.
i think its more an issue with the low sensitivity of the capacitive buttons than the glas itself. even people using normal plastic screen protectors have said they noticed a decrease in sensitivity with the buttons.
Tempered glass protectors have been hit or miss, and a lot of people have been waiting for Intelliarmor to restock the 2XL (the non-curved protectors in particular).
Looks like they're back in stock!

Howdy intelliGLASS Pixel 2 XL HD Backers!
Every October here at intelliARMOR we’re treated to the latest release of Google’s Android phone and it’s all hands on deck coming up with products and designs that fit perfect and perform the way we’d like.
Sadly, the progress we’ve been making on our intelliGLASS Pixel 2 XL intelliGLASS has not been stellar. The curvature of the XL model is significantly larger than the standard Pixel 2 and our flat glass is just looking horrible.
Because of this, we are not going to be able to ship our HD glass on the 20th as scheduled, we are estimating another 30 to 45 days before it is ready to go.

I wouldn't depend on the HD shipping. I think they said they were having problems with it because of the curved screen. There was a letter a couple of pages back.
I just want correct product pictures even if they are just approximations. How can I be expected to buy P2XL gear when I'm looking at P2 gear images?
We're putting so much faith in Intelliarmor's full adhesive 2D (and eventually full adhesive 3D) as the definitive TGSPs for the next few weeks/months. They need to meet us halfway.
I want that 2-pack 2D so badly. I just need the screen covered. If they need a micrometer to find the exact spot past the screen to stop the protection, then so be it. The case will do all the work.

Anyone who ordered the intelliGLASS 3D for the Pixel 2 XL already received a shipping confirmation?
My order is still processing and on their website it doesn't really say it's out of stock...
My HD 2 pack shipped yesterday.
My card was charged on 11/18 for my black 3D order, but they have not yet shipped... When I placed my order the site said "Ships Nov. 20", now says "Ships Dec. 10"
Well, I really do hope that the intelliGLASS 3D is better than their support...
Just got an email that shipment is delayed till December 10 because of too many orders.
Well this info would have been nice to have had when placing the order...there was absolutely no mentioning that delays may occur.
A couple of days can always happen, but almost 3 weeks plus shipping to Europe. I'm lucky if I receive the tgsp before Christmas.
Not happy at the moment
Seem to remember the folks for IntelliArmor mention that the IntelliArmor 3D glass is full adhesive, anybody knows? Hope this is true and does not cut out any visible screen area.

What I have read it's not full adhesive, but adhesive around all sides and the cut-out of the proximity sensor.
Should probably be better than most, but if it's really going to be the tgsp we'll see

Definitely not full adhesive, but they never said it would be for these initial batches. They said the goal was to try and make a full adhesive version, but I'm guessing if they don't sell enough they won't.
Anyway, put my 3D on last night, no rainbow effect. Got to work this morning, rainbow effect. I'll be putting another Skinomi back on when I get home.
Cuz I know a lot of you won't want to just use the pre-installed film protectors. Whitestone has a compatible solution that many people already use for older edge displays.

I ordered from Amazon and received the next day
Ordered mine through Amazon sun, judt recieved my double pack today
Are these any good? Like do u lose any sensitivity at all?
Its suppose to be the same as having no screen protector because of the liquid glue they use in between the glass of your phone and the glass protector. No actual testing since I wont have my phone until mon
I can confirm it is working, Withestone Dome screen protector, fingerprint reader works as it should, it was a bit tricky at first but then after few hours it is much better and is getting better with every minute. I guess the glues is curing and allows better recognition? I do not know but i can tell you it is getting better with every unlock.
swagonman - you do not loose any sensitivity, i have been using Whitestone since Galaxy S8 and it has always been excellent. they are expensive but well worth it, and you have lifetime warranty as far as i am aware from Whitestone directly. (As long as you have a proof of purchase from a retailer).
Just ordered mine. My concern, based on cost, is having a case that will pop the edges or corners. The case you have in your photo looks like it works well. May I ask what brand or style that is?
I have a ringke clear case, a spigen tough armor and I have another ringke on order.

Yeah sure, i have OLIXAR Carbon Fiber Case :

There is plenty of space between the case and the glass so should not be a problem with lifting,
I applied the Whitestone and my fingerprint scanner became very bad. I ended up having to remove it. Going to give it once more chance just to make sure it wasn't because I installed it poorly. It looked like a perfect install to me (no air bubbles or anything), but the fingerprint scanning became barely usable even 24 hours after applying it.

I'm assuming you rescanned your print after curing?

Yes, I actually did a complete rescan at least 4 times and added two entries for my right thumb and two entries for my left thumb. Again, possible that the install was bad, but didn't see any signs of issues.

Can't think of the guy's name on YouTube (soft spoken Asian guy who does tech reviews) but he was able to remove and reinstall the same glass. It looked really great.

I have received my phone today, first thing i did is to install whitestone. Then phone on and set up. Initially phone was saying put morepressure or something like that when scanning my thumb. Then it got better and better after few hours. Don't know it might just me getting used to it but i think it works much better now. I have x2 thumbs and x2 additional fingers done and all are working well.
I tried again with he second screen protector and it seems to be working much better. The only thing I can think of is that I didn't let the liquid sit long enough before the first curing process. Glad it is working now though.
lol i'm a dumbass installed the screen protector while forgetting there was the film one preinstalled lol so fingerprint doesn't work.. need to request a replacement

I just received the biometrics update this morning which also has helped tremendously.
