Slick Screen Protector Trick - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

I am currently using Stealth Shieldz screen protector and have also used XtremeGUARD on my SGP4.0 and they both felt rubbery to me. My finger at times, feels like it skips across the screen.
I have found a little trick that makes it sooooo much better. I wax the screen protector with Eagle One Superior NanoWAX. It can be found at most any auto parts stores as well as wal mart. Just follow the instructions on the bottle.
My wife was playing angry birds on my SGP the other day and asked, what did you do to the screen it feels slick. I told her and she had me wax her cell screen. Worked great on it too.

Hmm, that's a new idea! I love the stealth shieldz to but know what you mean about it being sticky. A little Bacon grease on the fingers from breakfast always makes it better, lol!

Best Screen Protector

Just got the TP2 and looking for the best screen protector. What do you think is the best and why?
I rather like the one it comes with.
If it didn't have that, I probably would have gone with another Martin Fields aka OverlayPlus. They served all my Treos well. The Mogul one was a little disappointing, but I'm hoping it was just a bad run.
huge thread here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520544
im using and like the dcmugen ones (ebay seller name , dcmugen88 )
just looked from when i posted on here 6 weeks ago , its still in real good condition , only has a few light scratches
Yea I saw the thread, wanted more to get a poll than anything.
Boxwave Crystal Clear is my favorite. Also the Martin Fields. Both not on your list.

+ 1 installed the one from HTC (with the shower steam method) and it was my first ever perfect (no bubbles, hair lines etc) application... been on for 6 weeks and still looks great
Waiting for Wrapsol...saw a YouTube comparison between this and the Zaag...very impressed as it appears to be thinner and virtually a smooth/clean fit....Wrapsol told me they should have one for the VZW TP2 this week.

If I put on a protector that is NOT anti-glare, does it cause it to have more glare in the sun? Because Id rather have more transparency then anti-glare.
the HTC default one do get scratch up rather easily compare to other SP
I've tried a bunch of screen protectors, and my favourite one is the Martin Fields one.
The only problem is that because it is an edge-to-edge screen, I've peeled each and everyone of those screen protectors off, while getting it out of my pocket on the plane. They need to give us more leg room!
Btw, the TP2 is perfect for plane flights =) Beats the on-flight entertainment anyday.
Looking to get a new screen protector and case now >.<
I've tried InvisibleShield and BestSkinsEver...
So far I've used BSE for almost every device I have and they're the best to me.
Waiting on my BSE in the mail that I ordered a few days ago.
The SP that the phone comes with is CRAP!

If you put on BSE (BestSkinsEver) right you can hardly notice that it's their. NO SMUDGES on the screen after a call from your cheeks (BB 8900)! VERY LIGHT finger prints on the screen after scrolling or whatever. (iPod Touch).
Most importantly no dirt around the edges after a while. You know how sometimes you would start seeing dirt or whatever around the edges when using a screen protector.

I was in email communication with BSE but they still do not have a skin for Tilt 2 and they weren't even aware that the tmo version was different than AT&Ts...
Ordered one from bodyguardz, I've never used theirs so will be interested in their quality vs BSE or zagg.

Yes, I was told they had an issue with that and my order had a delay. I should receive it this week.
I'm using the ClearProtector Extended kit. This is the second phone I've used one on. Once on correctly they're very protective and can't be scratched. They're also completely clear. The trick is doing it right, which isn't as hard as it seems, especially if you do it in a room with no dust, such as a bathroom after running the shower to take any dust out of the air.
oy, I can't even make a decision because someone keeps throwing out another brand.
Bodyguards!Bodyguards!Bodyguards! No fingerprints, clear as no screen protector, and way better control over touch! Yes it actually is more precise with Bodyguards on and its just as smooth as without a screen protector! Plus you get to cover your whole phone! Tip: once you install it will look ugly with lots of bubbles- squegee them out with the included card as best you can but within a day every little bubble will be gone. I tried to clean it because I thought it was dirt but luckily they include two sets. There's also a lifetime replacement with $4.95 shipping. By far the best purchase I'VE MADE - the total body coverage makes the phone glossy and sleek.
do the bodyguardz look visible or feel weird (such that you have many different pieces)??
oh no you don't feel it at all. If you do it perfectly there will be no gaps. The covers are stretchable though if you pull hard enough and on a couple corners I did overlap because I kept stretching it but its not noticeable at all. The phone feels a lot better to handle, no longer that cheap plasticky feeling.I love the screen, it feels smooth but there is just enough resistance that it doesn't slip. I finger it a lot with the screen off - it just feels nice to touch lol and I like watching people stare at me when I scratch at it with my nail when Im bored in class or church lol.

Zagg and a silky smooth screen.

Zagg and a smooth screen? How did he do it?
I was experimenting today with my zagg invisible shield. I hate the rubbery feel of a brand new zagg....but you can't beat the protection.
So I applied 3 coats of a small amount of Meguiar's Carnauba Wax. I figured, what the hell, I can always return the protector if it harms it.
Well the result is fantastic. After 3 coats, which took 3 minutes, I am very pleasantly surprised. The screen feels smoother than I can every remember it. Also, it seems that the wax OS finger print repellent....so the screen is staying smooth and very clean.
Id recommend any try it out, just be careful to keep the wax and the protector.
The car wax by nature, at least this brand....which is a popular brand, does not leave a greasy coating. I can't even tell there is anything on the screen.
Let me know what you think.
As a side note the EVO 3d screen is tough...just like my scratch free EVO 4G, that I never used a protector with.
I take care of my phones...but yesterday when I was disecting some tissue samples in my lab....another grad student dropped a razor blade on my phone. Didnt harm it....but I felt compelled to get a protector
I've got Zagg and it's a personalchoice for my phone. It works great but I remember the "not so smooth" feeling of it when it was first installed. But now it's smooth already (I use my phone ALOT!) but I'll keep this in mind for future reference.
So it does smooth out over time? Great....put it on today. Does the dots and streaks eventually disappear? You know the imperfections when you look at the screen from an angle?

The solution will cure and should disappear over time.
Why would you wax your phone? They make screen protectors that are just as, if not stronger like xoskins that don't require you to wax your phone.. Is that wax safe touching your face?
Yes it is fine, it does not rub off. It is car wax, the whole concept of car wax would not work if it rub off at a touch, and if it was harmful to the people using the wax to apply it to.
Car wax is used on playground slides, counter tops, etc.
I purchased a zagg....I got it purchased and installed from best buy for 15 dollars. Can't really beat that, considering the price included the install.
You know how the backing is 2 pieces? I have a line where those 2 pieces meet. Couldn't they have just made it one piece? Ugh. I'm annoyed.
Thanks Mr. Myagi, wax onnn, wax offf ...
I'm trying this now. Except i'm using turtle wax ice on the Zagg
Wax works
i tried liquid glass and this problem with the adonit stylus has been solved!! not to mention the benefit of elimination of excessive finger prints on the zagg.
the stylus now glides like butter

Galaxy Player 5.0 Screen Protector

I am wondering which ones you guys bought for your players (Obviously those screens are too nice to be scratched ). I got the Zagg Invisibleshield on their cyber Monday sale for $8
Same thing for me, same promotion. Now, I hate those Zagg guys.
But the important thing I guess is that the screen protector works well.
I bought a cheap ebay set, used for 2-3 weeks, removed. They scratched too easily. I like it bare! Have nice leather case, hopefully I won't scratch it... or good ones will become available.

After trying different types of screen protectors for my phone and tablet, I found that it is best to bare it. Screens produced these days are very tough actually, I don't have any scratches on any devices so far.
These days I only get screen protectors to deal with fingerprints... The Moshi screen protectors AT&T carries are great for this. Problem is that since the SGP5 isn't an AT&T phone, I don't get the usual 50% discount on accessories I get.
I had a ZAGG InvisibleShield on my Huawei S7, which was decent, and reminds me I need to eBay that piece of **** tablet. (Whatever you all do - don't buy Huawei products. They've improved build quality a lot, but customer support for their devices SUCKS.)
The SGP5 is a fingerprint/fingersmudge magnet.
I find there are fewer fingerprints bare than with a protector (at least the cheap ones). A bare screen also cleans much easier. I may try one of those matte anti-fingerprint ones. Bare is so smooth and responsive!

Yeah, the Moshis I had on my Infuse and have on my GSII are matte anti-fingerprint - love em'!
I got on my 2 Galaxy tabs Ghost Armor but on my 2 SGS II i got the Zagg but I will take it off and go with the Ghost Armor, I like it better!!
i got a skinomi screen protector and carbon fiber skin protector. the screen protector works pretty well, the skin is really just for a little more grip.
i had some issues with shipping, but, long story short, they had some great customer service, and they ended up shipping me two.
I have seen a lot of comments about Zagg that the screen protector feels rubbery or sticky to the touch. Is that correct? How about the ghost armor.
At this point, I have not put anything on. I like the look and touch of the screen, and I the only pocket that I would put my SGP 5 in is my shirt pocket. It has a folio case for traveling.
I would like to keep the screen protected, but just don't know what to use that I have not read bad comments about.
I have zagg on 2 of my devices and they were both a little sticky feeling for the first week or so, but as you use it, it irons out to a perfect smooth. I love Zagg and I'll get one for every device I own!

I got a Skinomi screen protector and wood skin for my Archos 70. The skin gave it better grip but after 6 months, the skins small pieces kept falling off. The screen protector though is great. Never coming loose. I had a couple scratches show up on it but after a few minutes they disappeared. Also the bare screen was a finger print magnet but once I go this screen protector on it was much better. Loved Skinomi screen protector so much I ordered one the for my Samsung 5 minutes after I ordered the device itself. Screen protector came before the device so I was able to put it on right away. Looks great, finger prints barely show up, never need to clean off the screen, never got any scratches showing up.

Supposedly the Zagg are made of the same material as the Skinomi. I noticed that it does have a little bit of a rubbery feel which doesn't bother me. It also did have a bit of a sticky feel, but that went away after a while. I thought maybe I got used to the sticky feel but I had one of these on my Archos tablet and the sticky feel went away, then when I got my Samsung and put a skinomi on that I felt the sticky again so it was not that I got use to the sticky feeling, it actually went away (The sticky feeling on my Samsung is now gone). I don't think I'll ever get another mobile device without getting a Skinomi screen (or ZAGG if they happen to be cheaper).
How is the quality, I want a protector for my SGP, too
I had a cheap Ebay one on it, but took it off because it got greasy way too fast. I like it bare, I'm not too worried about scratches. I tried scratching it with an exacto knife and it didn't scratch. I carry it around in this case which protects it very well: http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-...GEOQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327694289&sr=8-1
I also have this case on the device, that gives it a good grip and additional protection.
I use an xtreemegaurd. I like it a lot! Easy to install, and I only have like one or two air bubbles, (not on the screen)
I bought a basic TPU
I bought 2 but I lost one, always good to have the film on it
any tips on how to remove bubbles on screen protectors? they're annoying
Remove protector is easiest way. I've been running bare for a month, no scratches yet! Otherwise if you are careful you should be able to get no bubbles. They are usually caused by lint or dust specks. You can try pealing back and using tape to remove the dust, then roll it back down. I have yet to find a protector that feels as good as the raw screen (which seems very durable)

I am using Stealth Shieldz. They are just like Zagg, but a lot cheaper and come with two. They are like 3 dollars on amazon. Absolutely no air bubbles. It is also a tad bit thinner than zagg I believe. It is a great screen protector. Lifetime warranty. So far so good.

Zagg vs. Skinomi vs. BodyGuardz vs. PhantomShield

For the Droid Razr.
I'm wondering which one has the
1) Best Texture
2) Better overall coverage
Pictures would be appreciated... I'm trying to find the one that covers all areas of the phone the most.
Also, is the bezel of the phone plastic or aluminum?
Thanks
I have had a few screen protectors for the razr but none seem to go to the edge of the screen (up to the plastic bezel)
Im currently using a stenheil protector and it is as if it isn't there.
Sent from my XT910 using Tapatalk 2
I tend to lean towards the "wet install" films as well. Especially on the Razr which has a slight bevel on the edge of the screen. This bevel makes the "static" films lift a bit.
Zagg
Has a orange peel texture which is noticeable at angles but when looking straight at the screen it looks perfect. I believe the texture is to help smudges and finger prints. Barely enough solution is included after you wet your hands as instructed. Crappy smoothing tool is too hard.
Skintomi
Texture is very smooth but you have to be very careful during install or you will be left with "squiggles". Its a weird effect but can be eliminated or reduced by installing the film in a steamy bathroom. Nearly as smooth as the bare screen but also attracts smudges and finger prints easily. Good smoothing tool.
ArmorShield
Very similar to Skintomi but made in USA of 3M Film. A little easier to install than the Skintomi and more than ample solution included. Decent/Good smoothing tool.
Couple of hints when installing any "wet" film:
** Wash hands completely to remove dirt from fingers.
** Thoroughly wet hands with solution after washing
** Install in a steamy environment (like a bathroom)
** Once you lay the film, it will slide easily if you don't apply pressure.
I had a zagg protector on my nexus s. And I loved that texture.

I had Zagg and Stealth Guard before and I currently have the extreme guard on my Nexus S and there is no comparison. The Extreme Guard are the best by far. Zagg is too rubbery and actually attracts smudges and fingerprints. Stealth Guard was ok, but I found they were not cut to the exact shape that was required. The extreme guard fit perfectly, add some non-slip texture, but are barely noticeable on the screen. And given the price they can be purchased for on eBay you really cant go wrong. I have a RAZR coming in the mail and I immediately purchased two full-body shields from Extreme Guard off eBay. Two of them including shipping was like $12 to Canada.
I'm using the Clear Ultra Crystal Steinheil screen protecter and it's AWESOME. It's thin, but durable. It doesn't have that rubbery feel and you can't even tell that I have a screen protector on.
Im using Steinheil Clear Ultra Crystal as well. It is the best screen protector I have ever used. Very smooth, and clear and tough. I have had mine on for 3 months, and it is still pristine.

Out of all these, do any cover the sides and corners of the phone? I have a ghost armor on mine and it leaves the edges bare. On my Droid charge it covered everything, but for some reason not my new Razr. That's what needs covered the most, and I don't like cases so would prefer a skin.

I just installed my zagg late last night. I have to say I'm impressed with it. I only have 1 piece of dust under it, and most of the little bubbles are gone after 7-8 hours.

I bought a phantom skinz chromatic earlier this week and it should get here today. I've had a TPU case the whole time and I've always felt it took away from the slim factor no matter how thin it is. I hope the skin is better. I'm pretty careful with my phone and I just wanted something to protect it from surface scratches around the corners and edges. I will let you know how it goes when I get it on there and I'll post some pics too if I can.
I just installed a phantom skinz chromatic this past Saturday and I have mixed feelings about it so far. It cost me nearly 30 bucks and it came with the skin and 2 screen protectors. I followed the instructions to the letter and I mostly like the skin but the screen protector not so much. The skin has a nice texture like wood grain and I think it will protect the phone nicely. What I don't like is that there are a lot of gaps in which you can feel the hard edges of the skin. I have been getting used to it over the past few days. I'm having a harder time getting past the irregularities of the screen protector. The instructions say to allow a few days for small bubbles and other hazy imperfections to smooth out. It has improved a lot since install but as you can see in the pics there appears to be what looks like tiny bubbles or dust. These are actually IN the screen protector. There are other things I can't get past. It has a sticky rubbery feel that doesn't feel right when Swyping. There are also small ripples in places that have not gone away. Also the screen responsiveness seems to me to be a bit lower. Menus don't really "coast" anymore when I flick thru. The only real benefits I can see is that it really is smudge resistant to fingerprints. I do think it would protect the screen against some serious attack but its interfering with my enjoyment of the phone; so I'll probably remove the protector and keep the skin and just rely on the gorilla glass.I've had the phone since 11/11 and its done fine without it this far. Just my opinion on this skin. Hope this helps you decide.
Also the Bezel of the phone is plastic to answer your other question. Cheers!

I usually like to install skins on thin phones like the Razr and my last phone the Xperia Arc, as bulking it up with a case seems to defeat the whole point of the phone's design. Anyways, have a Skinomi on my Arc, and decided to try a Xtremeguardz skin on my Razr...mostly because the Xtremeguardz skin was much cheaper at $5 vs. $15.
Whereas the Skinomi had entirely seperate pieces for the sides, top, and back, the Xtremeguardz back piece wraps around the sides as well...there's seperate pieces for the camera area and very top. Personally I'm not sure I like this full wrap around design, as what I've found in the past is I tend to get annoyed with having these skins stuck to the sides of the phone. The sharp edges tend to catch on my holster case I clip to my belt when sliding the phone in and out, and before long it starts looking chipped at the corner edges. It also tends to pick up dust and debris on the edges and never stays clean.
On the Skinomi for my Arc, I had the option of just simply installing the back battery cover skin, and I opted to leave the rest bare...this worked the best for me as I wasn't constantly feeling the sharp edges nor the stickiness of the skin, and my main concern was having protection for the phone's back when I set it down on surfaces. My leather holster protected the rest of the phone from daily abuse. My Xtremeguardz on my Razr still seems to be curing its bubbles after day 3, and I find also the edges keep getting unstuck on the Xtremeguardz. I haven't started using the phone yet daily, so I'll have to see if I want to stick with using it.
As far as the included screen protectors go that come with these skins, I never bother using them. I find they're all just too sticky on fingers to be used on a swiping surface, so I always stick to regular hard screen protectors to get the smooth gliding sensation.

Screen Protectors

I let the Verizon salesman get me to buy their overpriced protectors (3 for $15...) I really don't like it. It's as wide as the screen, but long enough to cover the Verizon logo on top, and the softkeys on the bottom. It has cut outs for the camera and the light sensor.
What I don't like, is that despite the best efforts of the Verizon salesman (and he did try his hardest, there isn't a spec of dust under the cover) the edges don't stick. This is because the phone's glass curves to the edge. This leaves a tiny bit of the protector that isn't stuck down. Not only does this look bad, but it's also going to attract dust and pocket lint to get in there.
Furthermore, the screen protector also detracts from the aesthetics of the phone, it shows finger prints much more than the gorilla glass 2 does, and it adds a very slight color tint.
I think I'm going to remove it and just go without.
If you like Zagg then xtremeguard already has the DNA protectors available. Current sale means they are only 5 bucks a pop. I have used them before and was very pleased.
That is strange I got the Verizon screen protectors and don't have the issue ..however mine isn't edge to edge .. did he give you some type of aftermarket or does it have the droid stamp on it ..?

The Verizon protectors not covering the entire screen (not edge to edge, only the part that's illuminated) is a deal breaker for me. I'll just keep shopping around.
Also, I have nothing against Zagg. I've used Zagg on two devices and they held up great without any of the (noticeable) orange-peeling effect I've read about. My only big complaint with them is the outrageous price.

The ArmorSuit MilitaryShield Screen Protector is the best!
Are screen protectors even necessary? I owned my DROID X for 2 yrs without a screen protector and it looked as good as the day I bought it. That only had Gorilla Glass 1, it looks like Gorilla Glass 2 is supposed to be thinner is all, and I assume the same strength.
I am not for one going to put one on. Besides I love how silky smooth the screen is, and despise others with their sticky rough screen protectors.

Because of the curved edges the display has, I doubt there will be ones that will cover the whole thing, unless they come curved... I don't use screen protectors, but for those that do, that's most likely all you will get.
The more I use the phone, the more I'm thinking about just skipping the screen protector this time around. It seems pretty substantial on its own and the great, smooth feel is something I wouldn't want to lose (along with the clarity of the awesome screen, too).

I just can't use screen protectors no matter what. Some of them have a haze foggy look to them, others feel a tad sticky, and sometimes I'll have the tiniest dust particle under the glass or just a small bubble around one of the edges. <<<---- Each, and everyone of these drive me nuts! Also the touch never feels the same, or as smooth. I don't know about most of you, but I'm very anal about my phones, and never had any glass damage, or scratches for that matter.
My final word.... GO NAKED!!!!!!

I work in construction sites a lot. And I use my flash light app a lot. I will sometimes lay my phone screen down above the ceiling. There is always metal shavings and chunks of cement up there and I do not have the smallest hint of a scratch on my screen. I have also dropped it on concrete and asphalt, still nothing.
I honestly think it is a sales gimmick.

I have a Gnex right now... went naked with that and it was a mistake. I have 2 or 3 small hairline scratches and I take pretty decent care of my phone. I dislike screen protectors but I dislike scratches even more.
i've had an old LG Xenon (text phone) i had a cheap case on it which i ended up destroying after repeated drops on concrete, I've even cracked the screen a little on the side with the case and screen protector on, but after all of that i went naked anticipating an upgrade, but i've dropped it off a 2nd story porch straight down onto concrete with screen face down and not even a scratch. I think that the screen itself will survive alot of impacts, it's the rest of the body (as well as the corner of the screen) that can't take the damage.
I'm going no screen protector, but will put a case on it once the one i want comes out. I dont believe it makes enough of a difference to counter the cons of it.
Hey people, just wanted to do my part and contribute.
