best friend for HTC Touch Diamond
InvisibleShield eh? I had bad experience from using it on my Cruise. Don't get me wrong, it is a very good protection for your device but if your device is made with the paint coating on the outside, it may take apart the coating when you take off the shield. On my Cruise, some of the gray silverish area around the screen was gone. Not sure about Diamond but I dont intend to find out myself.

Screen protector
I have one on pre order but until I decide whether I wanna take the chance I plan to use the full front screen protector by Martin Shields along with the official HTC case (well until any better third party solutions come along).
Martin Shields seems to get good reviews and I can confirm that it is amazingly clear.
Invisible Shield
Well.. I use it on my universal and ordered for the diamond yesterday... I have to say that I am in love with the Invisible shield range! Bearing in mind that this phone IS a fingerprint magnet, i dont really want to use a case if i dont have to! I stopped using a case for my Uni about 3 days after having the shield...
It will be interesting to see what kind of solution they provide for the back though!
Will the invisible shield make the device NOT a fingerprint magnet?
In that case, would it be nice if I used it for the rear only? Any sudden change is colour, etc?
Coz I'll actually plan to use clear G-mask (thats what we call it here in SG) for the rear. That surface isn't a fingerprint magnet.
As for screen protector, looks like MF is already available for the diamond!

/QUOTE]
Well.. I can only speak for my UNI, however.. They are extremely easy to keep clean, and I have NO colour difference. Havnt tried it on a black device though! I am going to apply it when i recieve it, and then post some photos for people to have a look!
I will definately use the full body version.. i have a ´couple of "nasty" marks on the one protecting my uni, mainly because it fell open screen onto some rocks at the beach, and went clatter clatter clatter.... You know one of those moments that you stand there shocked and tell yourself that you are going to have to find a new screen??
Picked it up, and there were a couple of light scratches on teh screen protector.. but thats it!
Because it distributes any impacts across its whole surface, it really does help protect the screen / phone VERY well.

Mobile companys should offer an optional model with this thing pre-installed
Damage to coating?
Does removing the invisibleshield damage any coating on the machine (most notably on the front screen) like they do on the cruise? If so, that's a big no no.......
They said "no".
oooh.. It arrived..
Have to say....
Its not bad.. but really not great!
Its a 5 piece jobbie.. 1 piece for the entire back, one piece for the front screen (including folds for the top, and sides!), one piece for the buttons at the bottom of the face, and 2 fiddly bits for the bottom next to the USB jack.
Problems so far are that the round action button is NOT cut out, so it "floats" above. It may stick after time though!
And its worse that the damn IPhone to apply!
After 4 attempts, and about an hour I gave up... I restuck it to the pieces of paper, and will try again tomorrow!
Can someone post pics for this please?
I really want to see how they managed to make one for the back of the Dia
Well - just to compare it with the experience I had with the iPod touch:
Never ever a InvisibleSHIELD again.
Not the quality, I managed to get i on top without any bubbles, but the haptic is bad. Also the over all appearance neither I nor my friends like.
The second iPod Touch I protected with the anti-glare foil from the Apple Store (don't remember the name). Frankly, that is much nicer (front), but not for the back site...
Hope anyone will produce s.th. combined: a self gluing anti-glare front protection foil, together with an InvisibleSHIELD like back.
Any suggestions where to find such?
i have the one that comes in the box on mine it has alread picked up qite a few scratches, The guy i bought it from gave me a free spare screen protector from the brand 'MOMAX' direct from japan, seems good, i will probably try that l8r. but Martin Fields screen protectors are by far the best ones IMO! (and u get a piece for the camera lense too!

But he's a full protector or only screen protector?
It's a full body Invisible shield. First one the front, second the back.
It's difficult to distinguish, but there are holes in the protector for the camera, earpiece, volume and power buttons, etc

THANKS!!!
I wanted to see how it looked like so badly.
Please let us know how easy it was applying the shield to the back.
I'm rather curious how it would work out because of the angled area :S
Any possible chance of some photos of the InvisibleShield on the Touch Diamond? I'm very curious to see how it manages to stick to the angled areas of the back too.
I think the InvisibleSHIELD is great I have installed 4 of these things and each time has been relatively painless just have a steady hand and abit of perseverance.

Hello All,
Can anyone suggest where can we get screen protectors for HTC touch cruise. I mean the protecter should cover not only the display but also the camera and notifications led's???
You should have 1 or 2 in the box. And you don't want it to cover the camera. The picture/video quality would be poor.

I had only one in the box and when i am trying to apply it, it didnt go of well. So, I want to remove it and apply a new one. Screen protector i am having which came in the HTC box, leaves holes for camera and notification led. Why we need to cover entire display is when we use the touch cube functioanility often ur fingers slips and it leaves finger spots there....
In the german forum they discuss about the same problem... nearly everybody is waiting for screen protectors from "BRANDO" They don't cover only the screen.

I second that! I have had BRANDO protectors on nearly all my PDAs and they NEVER got scratched on the screen or anything. The protectors are not cheap but worth it!
Brando replied to me they are going to ship the Cruise protectors within 2 weeks. So let's wait and see.
I'm in the same condition... I'm waiting Brando screen protector, it's the best!
I never owned a ppc before... For my TC is nothing too expensive Only the best.
a piece of plastic a small distant from the lense would work as
the evil opposite of another lense killing focus
if you didnt apply it ok then redo it, i took mine out like 3 times untill i installed it correctly, i washed it with soap to clear dust and stuff and re-applied, worked like a charm
I bought a protector from Veripart together with the Polaris. It has a cutout for the speaker on the top but not one for the camera, but it is so clear that it does not interfere with the camera (not visibly anyhow). I tried a photo before applying the protector and after under the same circumstances and I did not find any differences. Besides that it makes the lens easier to clean because it is now flush with the rest of the screen. I like it very much. I never use the supplied protectors with my phones. If you ever tried a Brando or a Veripart then you will know why ;-) . The protector covers the whole of the front of the phone, right until the edges of the device.

FYI, these do not cover the entire faceplate of the Polaris. They are just standard protectors (and not very good ones at that) sized to the touch screen.

I've been using the protector that came with the phone and I find that unless I keep it clean, the touch experience is not so great. Sometimes hard to get a smooth swipe. The glass on the screen however works well even when smudged. Is there a protector out there that works better? If not, I'm going bareback.

The screen protector that came in my package with the TC covers the whole dark-grey area above the soft buttons, and has a cut for the phone and the camera. Wiping is super easy, and cleaning too. I don't know what you guys are talking about
Hi all,
We all got the HTC screen protector in the box (which I quite like) but I know many people won't/don't use it. Logn shot but if anyone has a spare that they do not intend to ever use can they mail it to me (UK) and I'll drop a quid in the next charity box I pass???
PM for address....
Thanks - Rich
It is nice. I bought a Something Fields one, and it's nice too, but not accurately cut. Would like a new original one, but I presume they sell them somewhere? Saw an unboxing vid of the raphael and it was at least three protectors included AND leather case. Not fair!

You can buy "official accessories" from numerous places, although the prices are IMHO outrageous!
A quick google
eXpansys are selling them as "HTC Touch Diamond Screen Protector ST P170"
I do not use it because i actually dont like the plastic on the glass allready
I think they say they now use glass, but there is still this cheap plastik pver the glas
HTC should use a Toucpad like apple does

The screen it self is made of glass. The digitizer (what responds to touch) is plastic as it needs to flex.
The iPhone touch screen has its own quirks. You have to use fingers. Nothing else will work.
I use the original HTC screen protector on mine as the digitizer is very easily scratched, should see the little scratches all over the screen protector though and I am very, very careful with my phones, if I didn't have that they would be all over the main display, so if you have any PPC is would seriously recommend that it's used. The HTC screen protector is great though, don't notice it's there, my finger and stylus glide extremely smoothly over the surface, like gliding on ice .
What would be nice if someone combined resistive and capacitive technology to create something that works with the finger, stylus and nails but only has a hard glass surface like capacitive does and not have that annoying plastic digitizer which is easily scratched. Maybe one day though
Used mine for about 2 days and got fed up with bits of fluff sticking around the edges making it look messy. I just keep the phone in a pocket on it's own and no problems so far. Haven't used screen protectors on my other PDAs / Smartphones in the past and never had a problem.
Depends on the individual I think.

It might be, but I'm not perfectly happy with it. The original one is perfectly cut, but the MF one is a tiny bit "smaller", and bad around the speaker. The nice thing with the MF is that they also protect the camera lens and the hard buttons.
I us this invisibleSHIELD™ and its nice!

No this has been talked about in a few other threads... imo and many others invisibleSHIELD is awful.
Martin fields are the best IMO as they are the clearest ones i have tried and they and are pretty scratch resistant but do indeed have a bit of a rough cut a good compromise are MOMAX protectors... also v good and clean cut.
Got my invisibleshield just and i just LOVE it! havent seen this good protector before.
does anyone know where i could purchase the original screen protector that came with the phone, mine actually covers both the screen and the buttons...
Any idea where I can get the original T-Mobile MDA IV Compact screen protector from? In fact, any 3rd party make for the MDA Compact IV would be useful to know about. Thanks

Same here. Screen protectors make your phone look ugly and cheap. I just put the phone in my pocket without any other objects as well.
I was just showing off the phone to one of the girlies on reception at work. It didnt respond as quickly as I'd hoped when showing her some pics. So, being the impatient so-and-so I am I chucked it into the flower bed we were stood next to. Wish I hadnt done it now as the bloody screen has a scratch on it...
My advice, if you are going to throw your Diamond into the flower bed, then make sure you put the screen protector on first!!! LOL

Haha, LOL! I recently read a report which stated that men are acting less intelligent the moment a woman enters the room. I guess you are a good example of this
Too bad of the screen though. However, when the screen is on you probably won't see the scratch that much, do you?
Just to let you guys know that I got a clear silicone cover and screen protector from some guy on eBay for AU$3.99 + $6.00 postage.

Although not very glamourous, the cover is great - grippy and stops me dropping it, scratching it etc. The button lights show through the clear silicone. The included screen protector is cut exactly right for the Diamond and not noticable. Totally recommend both.
Im going to buy a Desire but i can choose the screen protector reading varius comments in this forum.
Martin Fields?
Invisible Armor?
Vikuiti?
Brando?

Invisible shield by ZAGG works really great.
On my Magic G2 i have a Vikuiti and its the best protector i think!

The post regarding invisible armor are no good
Just got my Viktui protector this morning. Having used a Zagg shield for my Touch HD (over 18 months I ahd to use two) I can tell you that I am astounbded by how easy the Viktui one was to apply. Really, really straight forward with no bubble or anything. It also fits so snugly onto the screen that I can't tell it's there - a perfect fit. I cant's peak for its protectability yet but so far I'm very impressed.
i have both Zagg and Vikuiti though i have yet to put on the Vikuiti one coz it seems the Zagg one is looking OK at the moment. I'm tempted to remove my Zagg front screen but i'll give it another couple weeks to see how it feels etc, otherwise i'll be installing the Vikuiti front screen.
I try many protection for my old Nokia N900, and for me the best is brando ultraclear.
Best quality/price.
I've used a vikuiti screen protector and whilst it was ok as an interim screen protector, I found that it attracted finger prints quite a bit & after a while it felt powdery to touch. Just my own opinion.
I've now fitted (took a few goes) an exim spuc which feels a lot smoother, less prints & responsive. I'm happy now
I had a brando ultraclear on my Touch Dual before and worked nice.
I prefer a screen protector that leave the color, the resolution and the responsivness unaltered.
I'm so confuse
My advice is not to bother with a screen protector at all.
Having owned a G1, Hero, and now a Desire, I've never had a screen protector on any of them, and never suffered a single scratch.
IMHO, as long as you're reasonably careful, you can rely on the scratch resistant nature of the screen.
Regards,
Dave

This is true - sort of. I had my Dream for nearly 18mths unprotected, and only have one 5mm scratch on the entire screen, However this is a result of me dropping it. I was careful about not keeping it in a pocket with anything else in it that whole time.
On balance this was a hassle, and although I still do it with my (screen-protector covered) Desire through habit, on the occasion I forget to I am glad it's protected. Imagine how gutted you'd be if you ended up with a 1" scratch right on the middle of the screen! Especially since it's a brand new (to most of us) phone. I think a few quid for piece of mind is a small price to pay, no matter how careful you think you can be. What if you show it someone else and THEY drop it?

Lol I was glancing over and thought... not 5mm deep?, lol.
Let me say, without exaggeration, I've tried nearly all screen protectors out there over time for various devices.
If you live in, or travel to, hot & humid places stay away from invisible shield protectors they start their own peeling process shortly after a trip into humidity.
My favorite, by far, are the Durasec - HighTec protectors.
They are a bit thick feeling at first, but you get used to them quickly and you need only one for the life of your device. They are manufactured to exact specs of the screen, per device. They do not scratch, unlike some thin plasticy like ones. They are "self healing" for lack of better description.
Here's the link if you're interested...

Stay away from forever fitters. I bought one and while they are ok for the price the grainy rainbow effect is driving me nuts so i am already looking for an alternative. I'm trying to find one that is clear so it does not effect the screen's quality. So far i'm waiting for a martin fields review and maybe a couple of pics...
I, like many others i`m sure, is looking for a good quality shell for a Omnia 7. Can`t find anything as yet.
If you do see a good shell, please post a link here.
Thank you!!
I bought this one from eBay which has arrived today:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SAMSUNG-I8700..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item43a3706915
It's ok, thought I would recommend getting the black one rather than the smoked one I have. The only issue I have is that the sleep, camera and volume buttons are a bit difficult to press with the case one. I think it may soften or loosen up with a bit of use so I'll keep it on for now and see how it goes.
DC
Yup they soften up
i was the same. But few days now and they are nice and easy to press.
I did give them a bit of a warming up by clicking them a fair few times, but does work to loosen the silicone up.
I got the black one as you can see by this post/pics

I'm struggling with screen protectors though. I ordered some cheapy ones from a German seller but, with the greatest of respect, they're utter dogsh1t. Far too thin, scratched by a piece of card I was using to push bubbles out.
I really want to find a nice anti-glare protector if I can, otherwise I'll be going the Martin Fields route.

Sounds like you got the same ones as me, That's my 4th film heh... I know why they put 6 in there now but for £4........ or a scratched phone ?
Ether way mine is more protected than my other parts of me have ever been
btw i found it's less pressure with the card, and more laying it down and just ever so slowly backing it up and using the card to make sure the bubble you saw don't re-lay where it was.
I'm no expert but 1st go was a joke.... so many bubbles i laughed hard...
2nd better but no dice,
3rd was brilliant apart from a few bits, and my mind just made me take it off and start again
4th was perfect give or take 1 - 3 bubbles i can live with until i try again
You want to hear how my mate managed with an ipad XD
I am having trouble finding screen protectors as well. I think I ordered the same thing as you guys (bedifol ultraclear) from protectionfilms24 but when I went to their site, it seems it's pretty much their lowest range and looking at the reviews for the various cuts they offer for other phones, I am just wondering if it's worth not having a screen protector at all.
Please let me know if you have managed to found one that is good.
Cheers.
Low range - high range.... It was ALL that was out when i got the phone/wanted protection
It does what it says.
It protects the screen XD
0.05mm thick - Same as the "one" for £8 which i bought as with the £3 one to test all of them, Recently bought the martin fields and imo... it tints it for me.... i like the clear/glazed protectors which look like the glass it should be.
So 6 for £4 is win win
I got a screen protector from here http://www.devdef.com/products/for-samsung-omnia-7 (actually I got two), but I found that they're pretty good and by far the easiest to install of any screen protector I've ever used. To apply it, you need to moisten it (instructions are on the site), and then you can slide it over the surface of the phone, before it dries, until you get the perfect positioning. Bubbles are also easy to remove because of this - you just have to do it before it sets. The only drawback, really, is that it's pretty reflective. I don't notice very much in use, but it reflects bright lights quite a lot, so if you're looking for anti-reflective coating, I'd give this a miss. Also on a plus - it's pretty strong as you can see from the video on the site. Also, as the instructions say, it improves the longer it's on your device. Initially it looks a bit poor, but stick with it (no pun intended )
Yos, I'll look at those....remember to wish someone Happy Birthday today!!!!

European age of Xbox360 ?

What's best to mix the water solution with to apply that screen protector? I tried a mix of fairy washing up liquid and water but without good results. :s

I bought this one from eBay which has arrived today:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SAMSUNG-I8700..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item43a3706915
It's ok, thought I would recommend getting the black one rather than the smoked one I have. The only issue I have is that the sleep, camera and volume buttons are a bit difficult to press with the case one. I think it may soften or loosen up with a bit of use so I'll keep it on for now and see how it goes.

I got mine few weeks already from amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/GEL-CASE-SA...W8MW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1292094897&sr=8-3
Very nice indeed. And I am using savvy screen protector, little rubbery in touch but not bad at all
Yeah, I used fairy liquid and water, and you only need a tiny amount of fairy liquid - it's concentrated, you know ;-), and you also only need very little of the solution on the screen protector. Also, as I mentioned it looks pants to start off with, and it takes a while to dry, but eventually it looks fine. If you like a shiny screen protector.
I bought both of them on eBay. Very fine !

I am looking for a case which is similar to my incipio feather for iphone 4 and as far as I can see they don't exist and I detest gel cases with a passion so will continue to wait.
Very slippery phone to hold too!
Seen the perfect one but not in stock for weeks (judging by the galaxy s model).

I have ordered the last available (in stock) one on Amazon tonight. Will upload pics when it arrives.

As promised the pics of the CM barely there case.
edit: It also came with a free screen protector & a piece of cleaning cloth which I haven't used yet. Waiting for my current screen protector to be bit more scratched up (martin fields). Shouldn't take long.
That case looks really good just a pity I had to send my Omnia 7 away for repair!
What bothers me with these case is that I won't feel the cold metallic, sturdy cover finish in my hand anymore Is there any possibility to have a bumper instead?
Of course we need one of these threads.
I'm going to go buy a full body BodyGuardz this weekend and i'll report back with pictures, and a review. I've had a lot of bodyguardz for various phones, and they cover the best. They have the orange peel and sticky feel on the screen, but not nearly as bad as i've seen on Zagg. I've never once been satisfied with zagg.
I've tried Stealth Guards on my iphone and desire Z, and the screen protector is a good texture, feels smooth, no resistance. But they don't cover enough of the body.
Never owned BSE
I've had a Skinomi, and they have the same texture as the Stealth guards, but they seem to be very vulnerable to peeling. Also not enough body cover. (might as well buy the stealth guards, they're cheaper)
Anyone got any yet?
I just Installed Skinomi full body. I've had no issues so far and I like the results. I followed the direction to the T, but added the extra step of applying the protectors in a steam up bathroom. Helps minimize dust, and the stream aids in installation).

do you mind posting some pictures?
After work I will post some pictures, I have the product pictures on me right now. Another thing is the product states that once applied to at least allow 12-24? hours to use. I am using it less than that, probably a bad move on my part. So far no problems, we'll see by the end of today.

Skinomi full body.
thanks for the pics! the screen protector looks awesome. the full body could be a bit larger. the back looks funny haha. but i really like that screen protector, i've always liked skinomis compared to other brands.
Thanks. Ya I could do it again but pull'em tighter. But I am very satisfied. I was surprised by how the body peices held up, I figured they would peel off in my pocket, but no problems. The only con's I can think of is there are some thin exposed parts of the phone, imprint of object or finger nail leaves dimples but fade smoothly; slowly. If applied correctly it will last.

I'm going to go get my bodyguardz now. Ill post up pics when I get it on
the bodyguardz kioske in the mall didn't have them in stock yet -_-. gotta order them online.. damnit
i got a invisible shield from best buy because i was impatient and didn't want to wait for shipping. they don't have the full body, so i got the screen protector.
i just finishd putting it on, the texture is different than previous zaggs i've used. also there are a bunch of horizontal lines evenly spaced (they were there before i put it on, not scratches) which you can see at certain angles. and they also have a little zagg logo on the bottom right of the screen protector.. that's new.. and annoying. it's hard to see, but since i know it's there. i don't like it -_-
i'll take some pictures when i can, but overall it's the same resistant non smooth that i dislike about zaggs.

Strange, I just installed a Zagg Invisishield, No pesky logo or anything. It feels pretty good... Maybe its just my greasy fingers
Along with my Pop case!
hmm, there isn't a little black "zagg" stamp on the bottom right in between the search button and the bottom of the screen against the edge?

How about the orange peel effect?

you got the same thing as me then, it seems this is a new design or something. looks terrible.
I called Zagg and they told me that they dont stamp ZAGG on the shields...BS...something is weird...im taking mine back...i hope they take it back at best buy...plus i noticed the picture on the box shows the screen protector going all the way to the top with a hole around the ear piece and camera...the one i got has a big cut out at the top around the camera all the way to the earpiece speaker..
