Can anyone recommend a good product to use with the Amaze to keep it dry and useable while in water? Either a good Box style or Bag Style. I just don't want something so bulky where it looks stupid to even bring it in the first place.
I was even thinking about Vacuum Sealing it..lol

Atleast I didn't ask why my phone is bootlooping after flashing a custom ICS Rom coming from Gingerbread.
But when I was in Hawaii I actually did put my phone in a Double Seal Sandwich bag. Lol. Only down about that was the pictures were ghosting.

the problem is its one of those things you gotta do right, not rig
check out liquipel
I've seen liquapel. It looks sick. Its kinda sketchy on how it keeps the USB port or headphones jack open. If it wasn't for that then I would find a place that does it. Might just get one of those Aquaboxes.

Liquipel isnt for underwater usage, just to be water resistant. Its a nano vapor coating that is basically sucked throughout the phone.
Thanks Ian. I was looking at those on Amazon. If you used it for what you use it for then I can probably trust your judgment on how good it can protect. Have you ever tried the Box Styles?

Hounestly no, however I hear the work well. I know that we also have a dry box that holds a medkit and supposedly it works..however we have not thrown it overboard so I can't say for sure. However I have jumped into the watter with my phone bag and it held. ( thank goodness) I had to go be a lifeguard ... :thumbup:

You again ... I thought you went back to your Iphone since it is superior to the evo 3d in every way such as having a removable sd card for storage.
Mine was very hard to come out too, the little metal tray on the GSM version has a small lip stopping it from just sliding out. Really have to force it. I just used a fingernail though, not a knife.
It's really not that hard to get out of there. Out of the two I had, and the other 3 that people I know have, it's easy to come out. Snug, but still easy enough to come out without creating a thread asking how to take it out.
You have to push it in to make it pop out. Kind of like sex and the baby that follows.

I believe he meant that it's a great way to make it come out if it angles or snags on the way out.
If you push it back in it reseats and straightens, and it can easily be pulled back out.
Yeah don't rip it out! When its in there push it in further, it will click and spring out. By pulling it straight out like that you are probably breaking the little clip that holds it in there.
No need for knives or paperclips!
Easy!
Once you get the board out of your phone the card will be simple to pop out...

Do you play a lot of games or hold the device in landscape often?
I'm just spit-balling here, but.. could be oil from your palm penetrating the stock screen protector? or between stock and your screen protector?
Maybe it was there from the start but I never noticed it. Haven't played any games on it or had my finger there.
I really wonder what it is and why you can only see it when breathing on it, when I wipe it clean its really hard to see.
How easy is it to remove the ASF?

I would think it is the coating on the screen protector as well.
As for removing the stock protector, it can be done but by all accounts you will feel like committing suicide halfway through. there is a guide somewhere on here
Well, the thread can be closed because I destroyed the phone :good:
Time to get a new one and put on a screenprotector asap.
what, why, how?
removing the anti shatter layer? if so what's wrong?

My cats had went haywire in the kitchen so I slipped on the floor and the phone went flying. I laughed because it was so stupid. This is the second time this happens in the kitchen.. anyway, I will order a new one tonight.

Good to know you also have it though, so that I wont be bothered on the new unit

The nexus 6 is HUGE and I like using skinny jeans, basically a terrible combination , to walk around town or ride the train the nexus 6 can fit on the jeans, the problem arises when I ride my bike (which I often do) I feel like I'm going to bend the phone or it is just gonna slip out of my pocket and hit the pavement, so I carry it on my backpack, but I don't want it to get scratched.
I want a folio case to protect it while it is on my bag, something like the official case mate folio case, but with nice colors like the range of colors the HTC Dot View case has instead of the muted black fake leather
No, I didn't know you liked using skinny jeans. Noted.

You guys are real sassy today haha :laugh: , sorry English is not my first language :crying: , yep, I pretty much didn't know how to describe what I wanted :laugh: , what I wanted to say is that I wanted I folio case, but not a big one something like this but without room for cards, money etc , just a soft material that won't scratch the screen and I wanted something a bit more colorful than the muted fake black leather, I checked spigens website because I had a hunch that maybe the iphone 6 plus would have more colors to choose from, and sure it does (they are all terrible except for the white maybe? ) ... but nexus 6 owners get only get black

No this took about 10 minutes. I do not wrap the inside of the band. I cut a price of vynl the length and width of the watch leaving about a half inch every way. Cut that in half and laid it on each ending of the opening on the game for the watch (with the watch out). Heated it and then took an exacto knife to cut it how needed. Because it's not on the bottom or inside of the band it feels just as it would without it.
After years of using other brand's decal, I decided get my hands dirty and create my own. Here's my first carbon fiber decal for Samsung S7 Edge. The process is definitely longer than I expected, but I think it looks good.

I tried 3M decal, but I don't like it. It's too thick and the edge sticks out too much for my liking. I use this one instead - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0059XCVVO
i personally prefer the 3M Di-Noc. it has a deeper texture. if you use a heat gun and run your fingernail along the edge, it smooths out.

you only need the heat the material enough to soften it...not all that hot.
If a heat gun is too scary, I have done a homemade skin myself as well. I used a hairdryer. Works just as good and you can toggle warm to hot.
