X10 OEM Screen Protector - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anybody know if we can get these? Asin the screen protector that comes with the phone from the factory?
Or what make they are?
Took mine off as it was heavily scratched, and i need another! Have been using a 6 in 1 pack from amazon for a few quid. Good quality just sometime hard to apply!

Screen Protector
I have had issues with screen protectors. I have gone through 12-5 of them. The ones from asia are not cut right. I gave online one more shot before doings something else and found one that works well. The ones from China (amazon) were a bit larger than the screen and would pull off when I put it in the case or would collect dust. I recently got one from ebay that is great. It is a tiny bit smaller than the screen vertically (to the right and left of the buttons), but fits perfectly!

Item number: 110653213307
Cheap, right cut, and is holding up great!

i got a perfect one from amazon.com, they were super cheap too. it came cut perfectly, just the right size for my x10, it has stuck well, no signs of peeling off, no bubbles, and hasn't been scratched yet lol

jz one question, did u peel off the factory SP? and when u applied new one and put a rubber protector, did u get any peeling off at each of the side angle?

I peeled off the factory protector (actually the best buy guy did) I wish I hadn't. I have not had peeling issues with the one I noted above
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

i tried using the factory's but its jz have too much fingerprint... and its not as smooth as the matte protector.. im in dilemma, whether to peel off the ori and apply matte only.

try invisible shield it`s the best

Screen Protector - advice sought on choosing one.

I've just ordered an MDA Vario and it's going to take a little time to reach me (I'm not currently in the UK). Before it gets here I'm trying to work out which screen protector to buy. Has anyone tried the Invisible Shield protector? The material looks superb and I've read load of good things about their performance on iPods.
My current PDA is a Tungsten T3 and I have a Martin Fields screen protector on it. (MF protector for Wizard here).
I love the MF but am really interested in hearing experiences with the IS if anyone on these forums has tried it.
Yeah i want one too but was wondering, do they leave any marks when you peel them off afterwards? From the glue and stuff?
Quality screen protectors like Martin Fields and the IS should leave nothing behind after they're removed.
I think brando screen protector is not bad too. Im currently using it.
I have change 2 screen protector since I got my wizard.
- Expansys, Cant fit in properly. Bubble occur after stick in.
i've tried 3 different screen protectors, then i used pocketpctechs AG shield and i'm not gonna try anything else. It's perfect, reusable, no glue is used and installation is pretty simple. also it comes with screen cleaners and all that. highly recommended
For me brando's would be ok. I usually have the store person do the application since I can't do it on my own [I messed up 2 protectors when I tried doing it at home]. I'd say choose one that isn't adhesive but static that way no residue is left on the screen when you remove it. also most of them are washable/reusable... if you find a scratch on the side you use most often [i.e. the area along the SIP] just have it removed and re-installed reversed [not the face but the top and bottom].
The Brando ultraclear is OK. If you prefer a non-glossy one, the Brando regular is perfect (you will lose a bit of brightness).
I like www.boxwave.com 's version
They have a anti-glare, and a regular one, they are washable you can remove them and wash them under soap and water and reapply, they come with cloth cleaner, and a little scraper thing that helps get the bubbles out.
Here's a super cheap solution, and it works GREAT for me.
I went to Staples and bought a package of baseball card protector pages that are designed to fit into a 3-ring binder. The size of each card holder is just slightly larger than the screen on the MDA.
What I did was take a straight edge and X-Acto knife and cut a small piece of plastic that is a couple millimeters larger than the screen on each side. I simply tuck the plastic I've trimmed under the lip between the device and screen, and it holds in place just fine.
No adhesive, no mess, easy as pie, and the entire package of plastic sleeves was less than 3 bucks. It will surely last longer than the life of the device.

Got my second Brando regular protector (first one wasn't returned when my magician was replaced). Fits perfect, very scratch-resistant & the anti-glare is very useful while navigating in the car.

Same here.. I have used BoxWave, wich are also very good, but WriteShields from pocketpctechs are great.
I also had an "InvivibleShield" on my 8125 for a couple minutes. I installed it and saw that it was not plum on, so I went to take it off and reinstall.. When I removed it I thought I was going to pull my screen up with the protector. Stay away from those things... I then tested those claims they make on the website, about being indestructible. Pens had no trouble getting through, and scissors went through like soft butter.
$.02
I bought a boxwave and was not happy with the glare free one. I have used them on my Treos and liked them, but the one that came for my wizard sucked. It really blurred the screen and made it look like a prism. Maybe it was defective, but I ended up buying another one from javoedge and I am quite happy with it.
just my $.02

I also got an anti-glare from boxware, it does have issues however I emailed them about it and they are getting a new one that doesn't have the issues and they should have it in about a week. To make it even better they created a gift order for the new one for me.
I've tried a number of the commercial screen protectors in the past and wasn't happy with any of them. Of course, there is the ridiculous cost for a little piece of plastic.
The best solution I have found is to use clear vinyl sheeting that you can find at any fabric store, typically for a couple of dollars US per yard. Just cut to fit your screen, clean your screen, wash your hands and vinyl rectangle with liquid hand soap, shake off as much water as possible (but not all), and attach and smooth out bubbles.
Benefits:
- Minimal screen image degradation as compared to many commercial screen protectors
- No adhesives to gunk up the screen
- Lasts 6 months or so
- Easy to replace
- Costs about a nickle per cover
I also have the pocketpctechs write shield anti-glare.
Comes in a nice kit, can't tell its there when the screen is on.

I bought mine from www.nushield.com, but I haven´t been able to apply the first one to my screen.
I´ve used them on my Handspring Visor Edge and on my Himalaya with very good results, but on the Wizard, I just can´t get it installed. Will keep you posted!

Brando screen protector, Boxwave and Martin Fields are my favorites!
I've heard a lot about this Brando, but it is a bit too expensive for me for a piece of plastic. I think they are selling for GBP7+ in eBay. I wonder, is it so good? I've been looking for those 'card' type screen protector that is ultra easy to apply and bubble free because the protector itself feels like a card. Imagine, since the protector is like a card, it is impossible to get bubble under it. Anyone know where in the net I can get one card type for UK??
BTW, I've bought the 'Sensifilm' protector from eBay. It said many things, but of the two thing, antiglare and antiscractch is 100% bluff. Mine still give me glare and it has been scratched like mad with my stylus. Either the HTC is very bad in designing a stylus, or the screen protector is terribly weak. I think the weak protector is a more likely answer.
30$ for a screen protector. That is so silly. I got a protector for my psp for 6$ and it works great. Geez, pocketpctechs is a rip.
Cant i get some from a local store instead?
I can highly recommend Brando UltraClear too! Easy to attach, not visible when attached carefully, no reduction of brightness - display looks like without one (for those who do not like the reflection of the display: buy the Brando classic).
Regards
Carsten

screen protector in the box?

Does it comes with screen protector in the box? Like Touch Pro..
Asking because I ordered one, until it comes from Hong Kong...
to have something on screen...
thx
yes there is, as is a soft protection bag.
there is but...
Yes there is a screen protector in the box but I heard that it is not the top quality... So you better buy a quality type like BRANDO ULTRA CLEAR Protector Plus.
I will by this type when I buy my HD! I used the same brand for my Qtek S200 for over a year and I'm very satisfied with it.

I think the screen protector is not too bad, it is hard plastic not that rubbery stuff. It is certainly nothing like those cheap ones that you find in local shops and it covers the whole face of the phone, not just the screen. The cloth bag cover that comes with it is OK, but it is a bit thick. I found a black silicon cover that is made for the iPhone 3G, I made the hole bigger for the earphone plug and a new hole in the back for the camera. I saw this video of it on YouTube (not my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUOgFQ8dpzo . It isn't a perfect fit but it's pretty good until the official covers are available.
The hard plastic covers made for the iPhone won't fit the HD
My story: i snobbed the screen protector since i never used any in the last 10 years, and peeled it badly since i thought i would have never used it...but looking better to it, it was not too bad! then, I ordered two original replacement protectors from HTC, installed it VERY carefully....and now they are essentially invisible and you'd need time to realize that the screen protector is actually present....
So, refrain from excitement when you open the box!
I thought I'd read to steer clear of the protector in the box? You guys are saying to go ahead and put it on?

Well, i disagree.
I seem to be able to get the phone in it with minimun effort, seems that it expands after a little use, like new shoes or clothes...
my gf put on the screen protector that came with the phone.. and i guess shes good at it haha cuz we put it on with no bubbles.. no edges up.. no nothing. PERFECT. it looks great. dont even notice it. ive been using the pouch that came with it and i like it. works fine.. squeeze from the bottom to take it out and just hold it slightly firm on the sides to put it in.. pushing down from the 3.5mm jack so you dont accidentally turn on the screen again with the power button.. gets slightly easier after a bit .. dont be scared =P
Is the screen protector in the box the same as the ones sold on htcaccessorystore.com (and other places like expansys) :
HTC Touch HD Screen Protector SP P200 (2 Pieces) ??
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=173045
I managed to put on the original screen protector with little hassle but hate the quality. Hope martins ship their fast.
is there a need for screen protector at all. I mean can I damage thescreen with stylus or my fingers?
YES! and a good quality piece!
I had accidentally hit my kaiser screen with seat belt metal piece, thinking screen is damaged. Therefore, not willing to remove the film to face the reality. Only yesterday, after confirming my blackstone is configured and running well, I removed my Kaiser screen protector. The screen is good as new. The dent on the film is "high"! Thanks to the martin shield.

Now how the hell you did that ? :< I re-applied it 150 times and i need to be like super precise on it not to go left or right even for 0.0001mm
hell yeah screen protectors are necessary!
the screen will mark over time with stylus use and of course anything that "accidentally" hits it that is hard will cause marks, and no matter how careful you are, accidents happen
ive got the packaged screen protector on and its not too bad but i have a martin fields one ready to go on instead once the htc one starts to wear
I tried multiple times to apply the protector and was always off by a hair by the time got to the bottom. When I finally got it on straight there was enough dust on under it that I got disgusted and peeled it off again. I didn't give up though and ordered the OEM screen protectors again (two to a pack) and this is how I finally installed it properly:
1. Wash your hands.
2. Wipe the phone screen clean of any dust and fingerprints.
2. Find as dust free an environment that you have.
3. Peel the top edge of the protector only then line up this up with the top of the phone.
4. Slowly apply to the protector to the phone while allowing the backing to peel off. Make sure you don't allow it to totally come off.
5. You will soon know if it's going to lay flat in the slightly recessed area of the phone screen. The protector is exactly the same size as the recessed area and there is no room for error.
6. If not, peel the protector off again while allowing the backing to reseat on the protector but not all the way to the top.
7. Reposition the top edge very slightly and repeat. It will probably take several tries to get it right. It took me about 6 times but it looks very good when done.
The replacement protectors are easier to apply because the backing is the same size as the protector so it's easier to align with the phone.
If you're careful to not touch the adhesive side of the protector and are lucky enough not to have any dust settle on it, the final result is indistinguishable from the unprotected phone surface.
I'm very curious. Does anybody know why HTC doesn't supply the machine with the screen protector already installed?

Screen Protector for the Topaz/Damond2

Just to let you know that I bought the Brando Screen Protector for the Diamond2 from Inkino. They even installed it for me which is a bonus. The screen protect is absolutely amazing and is a good as any that I have seen. Do not scrimp on cheap nasty ones that come in multiples in a pack. You only ever need one good one. The Ikino guy showed me a Treo 650 which had a Brando Screen protecter that he had installed when the Treo 650 came out (was I born then ) and it was in a very impressive state. If you are going to install it yourself then they do recommend doing it very slowly and cleaning the screen before-hand is crucial. Common sense I know, but you would be surprised how easy it is to get dust under the protector.
got mines today. 2 pcs, both from Brando. one is the Ultra Clear version.
i've applied the "normal" one for now and i must say it's really cool!
putting it on went pretty much smooth. in the bathroom, where i guess there's less dust, i've cleaned first the screen with a special lotion. then waited until it dried up, after that applied the Brando screen protector as shown in the "instructions".
went OK, only had to start again 2-3 times, then found the right position. went over it with a credit-card while smoothing it out on the D2's screen. it sits very good, no air bubbles and really just a few very small dust pieces at the border of the protector - does not disturb.
so, yes, the Brando screen protectors are really the thing!
now i want only the textured back plate and then i'm really happy!
PS: didn't find the screen-protectors on the romanian market, so had to order them from speedshop.hu (hungary), but eveything went very smooth! in 2 days after the payment
Could you post pictures for me? I'm looking for a screen protector too. Does it cover the whole black part, or just the 3.2 inch screen part?
it covers the display + the black border around. it's actually identical in size with the one delivered in the stock package, the difference in the aspect being the "U" shape around the front camera (the original one is a circle).
I don't get it, mine came with a screen protector.
I think it is quite a good protector,
why are you intersetd in th ebrando protector, didn't yours came with a protector as well ?

yeah, i know. the problem is that i didn't pay enough attention when putting on the screen protector that came in the box and i messed it up (got dust and airbubbles under the protector), so after i've tried to get it clean, i messed it up so bad that it got useless.
this is why i ordered 2 brando's (speedshop.hu has 2 versions) - put on one that is not the "ultra clear" version and now i am happy with it.
When applying the standard screen protector that comes wit the phone, how do you get the screen free from greasy finger prints? If I wipe it with a cloth I just smear it out

Is a screen protector really important? I used mine, but the dust freaked me out. Can't place it without any dust...
So I removed mine, and now not using anything. Just bought a case.
What do you think?

You should put one, if it is not too late: once your screen is scratched (and it will get scratched, very fast if u use the stylus), you will have to buy a new screen cover (I think it include the digitizer), which will be much more expensive, or live with scratches which will blemish your screen, which are especially bad with TD2: the very high pixel density will cause moiré pattern (rainbow effect) around the scratch and I find that very annoying...
It is not so hard to install, mine was my first attempt at installing a screen protection, and it went flawlessly: just be careful, do not hurry, do not put your fingers on the screen (once cleaned) nor on the sticky face of the protector, and work in a clean, dust free, well lit room. Dust free is hard, but an excellent trick i did found here was to use your bathroom, after a hot shower (keep the water runnnig a long time, and take a shower yourself ) It will ensure YOU are dustfree ;-), but also, more important, water condensation will remove almost all particles in suspension, and you will get very clean air. BTW, better to wear minimal clothes after your shower: clothe fibers is the most common dust/particles....
If you work in such a place, the only difficult thing is to get the screen protector perfectly aligned. I started on the top, got the grid and camera holes aligned, tried to cover the screen from top to bottom, and restarted as soon as I saw the slightest misalignment without letting the screen protector out of my hand (else it is very difficult to repick - that was the only trouble I had after I was too enthusiatic and let it go while there was still a small misalignment.
If you keep calm, and have good hand coordination, 2 or 3 attempts and you will have an invisible screen protector ;-) Oh yes, and start with a clean screen (I cleaned mine with distilled water and a soft microfiber glass cleaning tissue...worked very well....)
Thanks, I'll have to buy one then.
BTW, does a screen protector affect the sensitivity of the screen? Do you have to press slightly harder on the screen to get it to recognize your finger?

slightly, yes....on the other hand, it is more slippy, although not enough for my taste when using fingers, but it is an improvement compared to the bare screen. Before I installed the screen protector, it was much too grippy for confortable finger sweep motions imho (clean screen, after a while finger grease act as a lubricant ;-) ).
All in all, weighting the slight decrease in sensitivity against the friction reduction...I prefer my screen with the screen protection, even taking out the protection factor
There's this Zagg product for the TD2, which is invisible. Not really sure about this... I might just get the regular screen protector, and use a silicone case.
I would recommend placing the bottom edge of the screen protector up against the bottom buttons to align it. I managed to get it perfect first time.
I find the supplied screen protector picks up finger prints even worse than the bare screen. Are the after market ones any better?
My reseller did the protective screen installation for me. Did a good job. Did you guys get the free pouch also? I am not sure if the pouch came with the unit or if it was a free gift as a promotion.

May be they have some particular features such as "antiscratch" or "washable screeing protector"!
I have also recently bought original one SP P240 and very glad with it!

been using Brando Antiglare (blue packaging) protectors for years. got one on my TP2 as well.
Also been using Brando Antiglare protectors on my HD. It's the best for me...
Can you guys comment on the change to sensitivity of the touch screen?
Does one have to press stronger with the protector installed?
More misses with the protector? Loss of sensitivity?
Seeing it in the sun will be a real plus for me on the TP2...can a few of you tp2 owners comment if it was with or without a screen protector? Which way was best for the screen clarity?
i a cheap set of 2 from ebay and it dousnt look like the maked had even seen the phone before, it even covers the buttons witch arnt flush lol, anyway i complained and he said that a few people had complaind and there manufacturor was going to make new ones so hopefully they get it right this time
Got a brando anti-glare yesterday (had one many years ago on my SE P900) and while it's a good quality protector, I find the matte texture disperses the colour on the screen, making it look "wet".
For an example of how it looks, smear a wet finger across your screen and notice the colour distortion. That's what I get from the brando anti-glare. It also had a slight crease in it out of the packet, meaning that there is a perpetual air bubble underneath the crease that I cannot smooth out.
Better than the stock one for quality, but a couple of niggles.
I have an EXiM SPUC and a brando ultra-clear on order - hope one of these will be better.

I got this as well, went on really easy, much better than the stock one. Quarintus recommended using a credit card to eliminate bubbles ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520946 ). -Is there nothing that Visa and Maestro can't do?
Yeah I know about using a credit card to get rid of bubbles. The problem is in the area of the crease it sits slightly above the surface of the screen, meaning that air gets underneath it. Only way I could get around it is to try and bend the crease out, but I reckon I'd cause more damage that way!
This one is nice.

Hi, im new to this just ordered my TP2 can any1 comment on how good the screen protector is which is supplied with the phone and if its worth buying a better one??
I found the one in the box to be very flimsy and not resistant to scratches at all.
Sure it protects the screen, but it will look very ugly after a very short amount of time.

Agreed, well worth changing it when you measure the cost of the protector against the cost of the phone
Does anyone have the same problem with this phone that I had with my Diamonds screen protectors, which was the protector peeling off when I put the phone in my pocket?
I had to cut all of the corners off the protector, and the 3-5mm off the top to stop it happening
its paypall, so you dont have to pay it
can any1 confirm this if its any good, worth buying or not??

Screen Protectors?

I was just wondering if anyone had got a screen protector yet and if so which ones people recommend?
SE already applied a screennprotector on the screen. Looks closely and you'll notice it, it's almost invisible.
yea no need to get a new one. no point on having two screen protectors.

With most screenprotectors you can easily remove them by pressing with your nail at the edge of the protector (press it parallel tot the screen). I don't think the X10 protector will be any different.
I think zagg has a invisible shield for it.. but zagg is overpriced!
there's already a screen protector on it?? i just picked one up from rogers today.. and all there is was a piece of cheap plastic with air bubbles everywhere
Yes, screen protectors.
This is the best quality/price protector. from 3M, not glue for stick to the screen, anti-static, and washable, can be remove a put back. No buble.

Remove that piece of bubbles and below that piece is an screenprotector already applied to the screen. Look closely at the edges.
I have just got mine yesterday from Rogers as well. I can see the edging you talk about where it seems there is a protector on it, but after several attepmts, I can not get a corner to lift. I am certain that it is not a removable screen protector.

best way to remove screen protectors is to use scotch tape ~ stick it on a corner tighten it by pulling away from the phone and lift ~ try several time and different corners if it doesn't lift. i've done it with thousands of phones as i used to work @ places that applies them ~ works every time

I do not want to remove it. I'm a fan of using screen protectors as having a permanently scratched screen makes me cry. So I want to make sure I do have one and if not, to get one ASAP. So I tried to lift a corner to see if it indeed does have a protector applied. Even after reading these posts and the link that was directed to me I can not remove this alleged protector that's already on my screen.
It's funny, because I have watched some un-boxing videos and some show screen protectors that came in the box with the device. (Rogers does not) I'm curious to as why that would be if there is one already on the device. Is it that it was an "extra" protector or merely one that was expected to be placed on by the user; where as the Rogers version apparently has theirs already installed by the manufacturer?
It's hard to get a definite answer as people post here from many many different countries. Each x10 launch in the countries has been different in some way. Some with the screen protector in box like I mentioned, some with a 8gb sdcard, some with a 16gb, some with a head set AND the mw600 in the box, some with just the ear phones and no mw600...
So I still stand by my own findings, I can not remove this invisible screen protector, using tape, or the other tricks floating around, making me believe that it does not have a "typical" screen protector that is applied on top of the actual screen. A few calls to various local Rogers stores has yielded zero results in confirmation, with all 3 saying , "No, the x10 does not come with a screen protector in the box" when I ask "what about it being already installed" and they scoff saying they have never heard of that.
hmmm.. if that's the case then i think i should buy a screen protector. mines Rogers x10 too.
Zagg screen protector
I bought the Zagg invisi-shield after i saw one on an iphone. Took me a good 45 mins to get it on with out any bubbles. I think its worth the extra cash as you get full body coverage and it improves the grip - so it doesn't feel like its gonna slip out of your hands all the time (a must for me as i habbit of droping things like this).
Also i'm not a fan of silicon covers or leather pouches - whats the point of spending money on a good looking phone like the X10 and then have to cover it up??? Show it off i say!!!

May I ask you, is it a fingerprint magnet?
I'm planning to buy full body protector too because my white x10 looks kinda ugly with fingerprints all over the body
I like my Invisible shield too, no its not so sensitive for fingerprits than the original screen protector.

Not at all, before i had the shield on i was constantly wiping with a lens cloth. If you have mega greasy fingers then you will leave a mark, but with normal every day use i'm not having to wipe off fingerprints.
