Is it case friendly? I have a dbrand case coming my way
I bought a simple clear rigid plastic from amazon that came with tempered glass, and the fingerprint works fine. Its not perfect, but it works.

I'm using a film screen protector from Gadgetshieldz so I don't have any fingerprint sensor issue or any touch issues.

Google has acknowledged this issue and AFAIK Google was planning to push an update to improve the Pixel 6 fingerprint reader.
Make sure your device has got the latest updates ,if it's updated but still having the issue, hopefully future upadates will fix it.
Meanwhile Goggle has offered some workaround to get it working which includes pressing on it firmly until it unlocks.Hope this helps!

I am hoping this to be the case. Just ordered them up.
If your primary concern is scratch protection and rely on your case for drop protection, then you should consider TPU screen protectors.
I have had issues with multiple glass screen protectors(I did have some success - but after the Dec update, even these stopped working well), but the 1st TPU one I tried has been working well for the past few days. The one I got were UniqueME TPU ones from Amazon UK.
Related
Its on the general "screen protectors" thread, but these are so great they need to be announced in their own
no, its not just for announcing their availability (EVEN THOUGH IT IS http://www.spigen.com/cell-phone/ht...-screen-protector-steinheil-ultra-series.html -- hell yeah!!), its for discussion too. I'd be happy to post pics of the shield upon arrival
These are easily the best screen protector out there in terms of strength, durability, texture, and light transmittence. I know there are legions of us that were holding out for these to finally go on sale.
now, to get ultra crystal or ultra fine?
EDIT: i ordered ultra crystal and it came out to ~$17. btw, im not sure if buying through amazon does the same, but ordering from the sgp website has always landed me with TWO protectors *hint hint*
I take it the ultra crystal is the clearest, whereas ultra fine reduces fingerprint smudges more? How noticeable is it with either that you have a screen protector on?
ultra crystal - completely invisible except at the edges were the protector obviously ends its surface is extremely glass-like
ultra fine - like any anti-glare/anti-fingerprint it has that matte-like texture/appearance so it'll be noticeable (i've only ordered ultra crystal)
neeevermind
Thanks. Not sure if I actually need a screen protector or not, but I decide to get one, it sounds like the ultra crystal is the one I'll pick. Are these dry or wet application?

I was wondering that too. Looked it up on youtube (also to see the quality) and they're dry application.

wonder if this will affect the proximity sensor ... looks like the protector covers everything

I was just wondering the same thing...
yup I knew I should have said somewhere that they're dry installs.. ever since I tried skinomi in my E4GT and got water damage from the stupid wet install I'm strictly going dry from now on, even if it was just a fluke that one time.
Steinheil is usually top quality with their protectors so I'm sure the sensor will me accommodated for, I'll certainly report back when I get it.
As for NEEDing it, it's totally debatable. I've gone a couple weeks without and not a problem. It just gives peace of mind and since the ultra crystal is almost nonexistent its pretty much a win-win
NOTE: the picture on the Site is not accurate to what you'll get (looked at the advertised picture of the E4GT and it looked like there were no cutouts but there are when u get it)
Will definitely check back on your experience with these. I have ultra clear version on my OG evo and have been pleased with the results. I'm considering going without, but if these are good, I may just have to get them for the peace of mind.
Ordered mine. You can also buy via Amazon (sold by SGP).
The crystal ones are perfect. You can't tell that you have a screen protector. They last the longest, are the most scratch resistant and you don't have to put water near your phone.
I've been waiting (carefully) until these came out. Now I can feel better about not getting a random scratch on my screen.
I was going to go without a screen protector, but I may give these a try. So many people seem to speak highly of them.
May wait for someone to confirm that the proximity sensor works properly with one of these installed.

If installed correctly, you won't even notice a difference (using the Crystal). Plus you can feel safe about accidently putting your phone in the pocket with your keys, etc.
The only pain with installing is making sure you start to lay it down correctly. Unlike the water methods, you can't really shift it after you lay it down. The protector is a tight fight so your hands have to be on their 'A' Games. If you miss slightly, you have to pick up and retry, which could lead to random dust floating in.
Luckily, they usually give you two. So if you screw up royally with one, you get a second chance.
I've used dry protectors ever since I seen how absolutely terrible the zagg ones are. I did order an xo skin which makes me sad after seeing this. I'll wait for a review/pix and prolly order one anyway

I ordered an XO skin for insurance. But when it came in the mail and I saw that it was a wet/soap deal, I said 'oh hell no'. I prefer the dry installation. Just have to be careful with dust.

Yep it comes with two. Only once did I have to abandon the first try and move on to the second one. I don't like installing them either, but I feel much better after I do. I feel much better installing a dry one like this (at least you can't really screw up the phone).
Looks like mine has shipped already. I'll let you know how they fit, apply, interaction w/ proximity sensor, etc.
Ran across a link to this somewhere.......haven't tried it yet myself, but it looks like it would keep it in the right place. Have to try it when I get my phone.....hopefully sometime soon.

yup its still on my S2 as well and I envy it bc I actually like it BETTER than the glass. sometimes the glass can be hard to navigate bc it doesn't have enough oil on it, but that's never a problem with the ultra crystal on it. like someone said earlier, ultra crystal is perfect.
I'll make an installation video when mine comes in which will probably be Friday or Saturday, I'm no professional though so don't expect too much. the method that they demo in their install videos on their Site works very well. It also comes with stickers to help lift the protector and take out dust specks if any get trapped under the film. you just need to find a clean, dust free environment to install it - like a murky bathroom after a hot shower
I have been in contact with SGP on the issue with the proximity sensor and heres a summary of what has been said:
"Hello *********,
We are in the process of creating new design at this moment.
If you want to get replacement with the new design, please check back with us after 7days to see if we have the new inventory.
We are sorry for the wait, and thank you for your understanding.
Peter"
So if you guys contact SGP (I contacted through Amazon), I'm sure y'all can get a replacement whenever the new design comes out. They were nice enough to send me a replacement with the design flaw, since I went through the original 2 I had trying to make a cutout.
It was good to see a company possibly make changes even though they said that there weren't many customers with the issue.

Yeah I have the Ultra Crystal too, but its super finnicky when the sensor wants to work. I'm super OCD about bubbles and such and I have none in my 3 installations and yet none of the protectors could emulate having a naked screen. Although it will randomly work sometimes, its super annoying to have the screen turn off instantly when making a call and then clicking the power button multiple times to have it turn on and instantly off again. Crossing fingers here!
i have the UC, and i tested the prox by making a call with and without the protector on in the dark. With the protector on it doesn't wake the screen but with it off it does. In a well lit room though it works because the light sensor triggers the screen on in that case, which i tested with my desk lamp, i would make the call then take it away from my face, and it wouldn't turn on until i exposed it to the light so ppl that think their sensor work, maybe try that to make sure.
I ended up making a cutout in my current protector but will contact them about the pack of 2 that i haven't opened yet thanks for the heads up.
Keep us updated I've been holding off on ordering because of this issue.

Through their support on the website, they didn't offer to send me one with the cutout.

How long have you used it for? That stickiness usually goes away after awhile and if you don't want to wait wipe it with a 50/50 rubbing alcohol and water solution.

Okay so I bought a generic case from Amazon and obviously the fingerprint scanner didn't work once the metal edges were covered up. today I got my fp scanner to work with the case without any aluminum foil or anything like that. all I did was reset my fp setting and then I put the case on and ran the fp scanner set up. the fp scanner didn't work, like it didn't record my fp at all, until I used the upper half of my finger. I just rubbed that part of my finger until it started to record my fp. just keep rubbing it with your finger until you see the scan % go up. now I have both my index fingers recorded. when I unlock my phone I give the fp scanner a little rub and it works. just can't use the bubble part of your finger, you have to use the part between the middle bubble of your finger and the tip.

Well i would recommend leave the default protector on till the end of November that is when we can expect the official tamper glass to appear online. You can also get one from the experience stores if you have one near you.

I am keeping the film on till it lasts. It's the best fitting screen protector as of now. We have a gorilla 6 screen so breaking the screen shouldn't be a bother.

I use supershieldz works just fine
might be a silly question, but did you register your prints before applying the SP?
That is what I did and the cheapo Glass SP I applied afterwards is working fine. I even tried laying a second SP on top - just to check and it still works - but only 50% of the time (in the brief testing I did).
I have not upped the sensitivity option mentioned above.

Yeah, I used this and it works well. See my post w/picture in the other FP thread "Hey Google, Fix the Fingerprint..."
And maybe the mods can combine the finger print threads
weird I just installed it and it's about as good as the s20, it's like 8/10 for me.
Just to update that I got my WFTE Screen protectors earlier today.
Seems to be working fine, I replaced the AmFilm one with the WFTE and the FP now worked 18 out of the 20 attempts I tried so far - even if position the thumb in different ways e.g. lower part / upper part - this is probably as good as the 'Pkila Compatible with Oneplus Nord Tempered Glass Screen Protector' that I was originally using as a temporary measure.
One thing though - I think the WFTE is a bit on the thinner side? I say this because the 1st WFTE I tried developed a small crack along the edge when I was smoothing out the bubbles. I have been using SPs for years now and this has never happened to me before??
The 2nd one went on fine.
After the WFTE one cracked during install and the poor customer service response from WFTE, I wanted to try and find a different brand and there were some positive reviews for the AOKUMA one Amazon UK.
I replaced the WFTE with the AOKUMA yesterday afternoon and it is working fine for me - as good as the WFTE in terms of the fingerprint being accepted.
