*updated* Stealth Guards full body skins for $0

http://www.stealthguards.com/index.php/t-mobile-g2-full-body-protection.html
These have to be the cheapest skins I've seen. Only pay shipping. $2.85 to Connecticut for me. I actually ordered 2 for $4.85
Haven't heard anything about their quality before, but if they are at least as good as other discount skins like BestSkinsEver, then I will be happy.
Zagg and the other more expensive skins are a complete rip off. So far this is also the first FULL cover skin I have seen for the G2.
I'll post pics and a review after I get them in a few days.
*UPDATE*
StealthGuards are not great. No where near "full protection" like Zagg or BSE. Didn't even finish installing because they aren't going to do what I want.
I'm actually using the T-mobile snap on gel skin (smells like ass when new, but fits great) and T-mobile anti-smear screen protectors (best I have used, amazingly). Got both cheap cause wifey's an employee.
Also, The snap on BodyGlove case T-mobile sells is twice as much as the gel one I have, and the fit sucks. It actually keeps the keyboard from opening all the way, making it wiggle forward and back.

I would not recommend these. Got 5 for my nexus and they all sucked. Main thing was the screen protector it looked horrible

Don't waste the shipping cost there horrible. Very poor quality there definitely not cut to fit. You will literally not even use it but just toss it.

still waiting for Bestskinever. its literally the same as the invisible shield though it doesn't come with a spray bottle, squeegee and fancy packaging. and it cost about 1.3 that of invisible shield.

Orderd one.. lets see how they hold up..
Normally buy ZAGG's but their quality has been horrible lately
Hope these are a little better than the cheapo ones on eBay..

On my HD2 it looks great. Installation is the make or break for these. They are like the Zagg ones in feel and quality. i ordered 4 @ $8.85 Basically $2.85 shipping on the 1st one $2.00 for each additional one.

I'm always weary of anything that I have to adhere to my phone.

I wouldnt get them, i mean if they are handing them out for free something is wrong with them... i usually get zagg invisible shield

There is nothing wrong with them. My HD2 full body was free, just pay shipping. They do promos all the time on new/popular devices. if you pick a kindle or a laptop or gaming device, they are priced. they do it to get their name out there. these have less texture on the film than zagg does. its smoother in my opinion.

Just got this Stealth Guard In
Hey guys,
I just got this for my G2 and I would have to say that it doesn't protect as much as the BSE or ZAGG skins. IT seems as though their plotter that makes the 2d cuts to fit a 3d object isnt really equipped to do any type of compound curvature. I installed it because well, it's better than nothing until BSE has one.
Installation: Installing this skin is super easy because it doesn't cover any corners or edges.
Coverage: On the front, it covers the whole screen including the black edge and capacitive keys and the plastic area below the track pad.
On the back, it the aluminum batter plate, the flat surfaces of the soft plastic and the spaces above and below the volume key and micro-usb port.
It does not protect ANY corners!
So, if you plan on getting this case, be aware that it will protect your phone from normal scratches involved with placing your phone on its front or back but will not protect the edges sides and corners.

On the front, can I use it as just a screen protector? I want a screen protector, not sure about the full body coverage. I dunno, I just ordered it, guess I'll see how I like it when I receive it. I mean, it was only $2.85 or so, so if I do not like it, it's a non-issue to pitch it and go buy a ZAGG or the T-Mo branded screen protector.
But the main thing I am interested in is screen protection

I had one of these on my nexus and it sucked ass. Also got one for my friends vibrant. Def not worth it. Ill get a zagg for my phone. Remember, you get what you pay for.

Received mine today and installed it. Easy install and looks good. screen protector fits perfect. Only thing is edges are not protected due to the roundness, also the metal around the screen is exposed because of the roundness also I assume.

I got mine in the mail today. I had a really hard time with it. I got it on the battery protector okay, but it doesn't quite fit. One side is too long. It may shrink after drying.
It's wet application and I just could not bring myself to wet down my G2. You also have to squeegee the water out from under the cover once it is installed. I imagined drops of soapy water dropping down into the speaker grill while doing this. I attempted to put the back piece on. It is shaped like a "C" and goes around the battery cover and has a cut out for the camera. I tried and tried and just could not get it to fit right.
I think I will go to T-Mobile tomorrow and just get a screen protector, unless I can find someone to professionally install a full cover. So right now just the battery cover has the Stealth Guard on it. I'm okay with this for now.
I don't usually have trouble with these things, but this is my first wet install. I put a full decal set on my Cliq with no problems at all.... Dry install. It was from skinit.com and I really like it. I included some pictures of my Cliq because I really like the skin and I want to show it off So hopefully they get some in for the G2.

I did say it was easy, but this was my 4th wet install. For example near the speaker i pushed the water away from it. Also before i start to squeegee the water i lay a cloth over the area before i squeegee to absorb excess water. My 1st install was on my G1 which i ordered a stealth guard for as well, the current invisible shield on it is looking beat up.

Don't get the T-Mobile screen protector, its one of those anti smear ones. When its on the screen it makes it lookf pixelated a little and in my eyes, down plays our G2 screen resolution a lot. I would try a clear one from amazon, cheap, easy to install and clear to see through.

Actually I picked one up today and I really like it. I see what you are saying about the pixilation though. But the feel of this thing is excellent! Very smooth under the finger. I was also able to put it on without a single bubble or dust speck underneath. I had one like this for my Cliq and if I remember right the pixilation mostly went away after it was broken in.
I saw a Zagg shields kiosk in my mall when I went to get the screen protector. They were busy so I didn't get any pricing. Maybe after this one wears out I'll go get one professionally installed.

Agreed, I actually like the t-mobile screen protector better than any others I have used. I don't notice any pixelation at all. covers the whole screen perfectly. Seems durable. And it's SO nice not to be constantly wiping smudge marks away like I had to with other protectors.
I'll add this update at the beginning too: but StealthGuards are not great. No where near "full protection" like Zagg or BSE. I'm actually using the T-mobile snap on gel skin (smells like ass when new, but fits great) and T-mobile anti-smear screen protectors. Got both cheap cause wifey's an employee.

I want to get a gel cover from T-Mobile but I have leather case that it wouldn't fit into any more. Tried out some other ones in the store but they were also too small.

Maybe if you measure the G2 with the cover you like, you could find a leather case that fits but was intended for another phone.

Screen protectors

So, after watching the Zagg youtube video on how easily the the
Captivate's screen scratches. I decided I once again needed a screen protector; so I did a search on amazon and found xtreme guards. For $2 your can get a screen protector (which is what I did) for $5 you can get a full body protector, so my screen protector came in today, and I gotta say I'm pretty impressed with the quality; it's easily the best screen protector in terms of material I've ever had (and I've had tons of em).the best way to describe it is like the window decals you put on your house for holidays only thinner.when installing you of course get a hard plastic installation card, and when working out the bubbles and install solution I was surprised to find the protector it's self not scratching! like so many other countless protector I've installed in the past. The instructions said it takes about 2 days for any hazeyness or bubbles from the install to go away and there's a little of both still left. The bubbles are no big deal as I expected them because I SUCK at putting these things on. However I would like the hazeyness to go away but only time will tell. Bottom line for the price these things are amazing! And if your insecure about scratches like me then you need one of these. I give it my kick ass product stamp of approval!

Zagg is also pretty impressive. Although it is quite a bit more money you easily get what its worth. Zagg also makes me condoms xD jk

The biggest and main reason for me only buying ZAGG products is because of the lifetime warranty they come with. To me its a no brained for a protector. If I mess it up they send me a new one free of charge. If the corner peels or it gets caught on something they send me a new one. Greatest protector in my opinion.

I had the full ZAGG on my Evo and loved it! Does anyone know if they make a full one for the Fascinate WITH the extended battery and door? I couldn't find anything about it on their site but wondered since it's an OEM accessory?

Yea my only problem with zagg is paying $14-$24 for a thin piece of plastic that I can never apply perfectly anyways.
Sent from my crippled with Bing, Galaxy S phone.

With my Droid X I went with a Steinheil Ultra Crystal and it was really great because it covered the whole display and was perfectly clear, very transparent user experience.
Since then I traded the X in for the Fascinate and unfortunately Steinheil hasn't released the same protector for the Fascinate yet. So for now I went with Zagg shield because the Verizon branded protectors are horrid (don't cover whole display, nasty texture, and dull the gorgeous display).
I'm not too impressed with the Zagg, but it covers the whole front and is relatively responsive and clear.
My biggest gripe is the orange peel effect as well as little lines of distortion (almost looks like application solution that didn't dry or something, like a water / oil on screen effect).
It also takes 24hrs to "properly apply" so that may be a downside because they tell you to turn the device off until dry.
Also the material has a habit of retaining any indentation from fingernails and such, almost like a rubber memory type plastic.
Perhaps some of my issues are to do with poor application of the protector so personal experience may vary. Some people were saying it takes 2 weeks of heavy use to fully cure. These are nit picky gripes of flaws I see in Zagg compared to the Steinheil. I believe Zagg to be a more professional military grade protector, but the steinheil seems to offer a better viewing experience.
I would recommend going with something temporarily and then switching it out for the Steinheil once they are available, my preference of course.

Steinheil Ultra Clears are THE BEST CLEAR screen protectors out there, period. Nothing is more optically clear, durable, no orange peel/distortion, easy to install, able to be installed with NO dust, etc. I've used every brand of screen protector out there over the last 15 years, and they are THE BEST I've used.
As mentioned, they're not out yet for our phone though. I e-mailed them and they said they are going to be making them but they're a few weeks out at least. They suggested watching their twitter / facebook page.
So since they're not out, I'd recommend going with "whatever" for now. I'm going to use one of those $2 full protection ones that are mentioned in this forum
The best ANTI GLARE protectors, are Boxwave ones. But given how beautiful this display is, I don't think I could recommend putting an anti glare on this screen.

I just want one that covers up the whole face of the phone

you can get a bunch of those on ebay

I just bought the Realook screen protectors from Amazon - they cover the whole screen and are very clear, can't even tell it's on there. Fairly easy to apply too - they are $9.99 for two of them.

I got the $2 Stealth Guards "full" body protector, mini review:
The Stealth Guards films are better than nothing, but not much grippier than stock (in terms of the battery door slipperiness issue). They come with just two films, front and back. Application and clarity is similar to other "invisible shield" type products. Not a very good screen protector (orange peel, tiny bubbles, not crystal clear), Steinheil is WAY better, but they don't have them yet for our phones so I'll use this in the mean time. Also, they cover the light/prox sensor at the top of the phone, which I found made the automatic backlight adjustment sorta freak out and switch more often than it should (probably because the protector is relatively thick and not crystal clear) - I cut a tiny window out around them with a razor blade and that fixed the issue. They shipped in an envelope, inside another envelope, I ordered 3 sets for myself and friends, and every one came with wrinkling/damage. Fortunately the films are very durable so the films themselves were unharmed - it was the paper backing that was wrinkled. Still, they could of reinforced the envelope with a little cardboard.... Also they come with no instructions or packing at all, just bulk/oem packed. Still, for $2 they were worth it, but not worth much more than that.

I just got a Fascinate today and it should arrive tomorrow or Wed. Since the recommended Steinheil wasn't available, I decided to get a Zagg InvisibleShield since I had one on my TP2 and it was fine after it dried for a few days and got a few days use. If anyone else wants to get one, I found a 50% off discount code for Zagg products that worked, so I got it for $10 with standard shipping. Use code "50sport" when checking out and you should get 50% off your order.

Thanks for the heads-up. I've been debating about picking up one of these for my Fascinate, 50% off was good enough to tip the scale.

Ive got the same one on my phone. After using a couple of the cheaper wet application protectors, the realook is much better by far. I actually compared the "feel" of my screen to a co-workers DX with a SGP and I couldn't tell a difference.

Hey guys, I remember watching this youtube video (go to 2:22) and you can tell that the Fascinate is just a little bit taller than the Vibrant:
Since I am a new member, I can't post links, but go to youtube and search "samsung fascinate review mobile burn" and it is the first video that shows up (part 1 of 2). Again, go to the 2:22 mark and you can see the difference.
Hope this helps

Wish I would have seen that before I ordered one from SGP. It hasn't shipped yet so I'll have to call and cancel my order...thanks for the heads up about the size difference.

I used Zagg until they changed the installation package to the sponge. Found Skinomi, which is the same quality as Zagg, had the lifetime warranty, and the spray bottle installation method.
I wouldn't use anything else.

Steinheil Ultra Series Screen Protectors

Steinheil has their Ultra-Clear screen protectors available for the DROID Charge. I just ordered one and I'm hoping it works out better than the ZAGG Invisibleshield did on my Fascinate. See here

I put their incredible shield plus the ultracrystal screen protector on my Fascinate, and absolutely love it. The tacky feeling around the phone is nice for grip (especially with games) but still can slide in my pocket. And of course, the screen protector itself is smooth as glass.
Nice to see it coming out so soon for the Charge, it was weeks before the Fascinate's was available.

I swear by Steinheil. I love the way they glide onto the surface, no hassle and no bubbles.

Which version have people tested? I see they have 3 types.

I got the ultra-crystal as I didn't want any distortion to the screen and don't really care about fingerprints as they can always be wiped off.

I know I'm double posting, but I wanted to bump this to share. I got my screen protector in the mail yesterday afternoon and was able to put it on my phone last night. The ultra-crystal protectors are THICK, much thicker than I was expecting. Installation was fairly simple, didn't have to turn my phone off or anything, which is nice coming from ZAGG. There is no distortion to the screen at all, and you can barely tell that I even have a screen protector on it. I unfortunately got a small piece of dust that I can't get off at the bottom edge and that is the only place you can really see that something is covering the screen. Will see how it holds up over the next week or two, now that I'll be a little less careful since the screen won't get scratched.

I love it too, and the areas that weren't fully pressed down due to what I thought was dust disappeared, so I guess it just took a little time to fully fasten itself. The fit is almost 100% matched to the glass, so you really have to look to see that it's even there.

Looks like they are temporarily out of the Ultra Crystal. I was going to pull the trigger and that option is gone...
Edit:Well, it looks like the full-body shields ship with the UC screen protector, if you wanted full coverage.

Quick question: do these shields cover or interfere with the front-facing camera? From the illustrations, it looks like the shield covers the front camera.

It covers the camera, but the protector is completely clear, and although I haven't taken any pictures with the FFC, the image displayed on the screen when using it doesn't show any distortion.

They're sold out of their stock on sgpstore.com but I grabbed one off Amazon (sold by SGP Store, stocked by Amazon) yesterday with free shipping (got a compatible HDMI cable and TPU case with it to make $25) and it shipped today.

Where was that?! I just spent a good twenty minutes looking on Amazon for it and didn't see it anywhere...are these really worth the price? I assume yes, given the reaction you all have to Steinheil's products, but thought I'd ask.

I got the ultra crystal. I can barely tell it's there. Lots of finger prints... but I don't mind too much.

How does Steinheil compare to Bodyguardz, Zaggs, BSE, or clean protector?
I ask cuz I'm looking for full body protector? Plus does anyone have discount codes?

If you can wait a week or so just get some decent cheap ones off ebay like these
http://cgi.ebay.com/5-CLEAR-Screen-...238019?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a66966f03

I ended up ordering some of the ultra crystal from amazon and am very impressed.
I am less impressed with my skills, I managed to get a little piece of dust on my second attempt to apply... but other than that the thing is perfect, and my dust ended up being in a corner so i didn't want to waste another protector.
Definitely worth the money, all other protectors "ruin" the screen for me, its such a nice screen, but it still needs protection.

I had a good experience with Zagg, but hated the rubbery feel. So, I was looking into getting a Steinheil protector.
Any stores carry these like Best Buy does Zagg? Or is it online only?
I bought the cheap 3 pack from Verizon to hold me over and ugh. Super clear, but bubbles on the edges are almost impossible to prevent. I love the texture better than zagg, but there is some glare outdoors.
Is it possible to get these cheap ones on with the edges coming up? I ask because I don't think I ever seen a phone without the bubbles on the edges.

Best screen protector?

Hey guys just bought my Triumph and waiting for it to come in the mail. I was wondering what the best screen protector would be for this phone. I'm considering the Rocketfish at best buy so I think I'm set on the case. I remember my friend had an iphone protector and it was a glossy look and feel rather than they smooth one. I really liked the feel of that one because my fingers never stuck to the screen. Well all opinions would be great thanks guys.

With reading that discussion, do you think the full protection is good enough to replace a case for the phone or would you recommend the Zagg screen protector with the Rocketfish case?

Personally I hate cases.I have seen the full body ZAGG on one phone and that was like 2+ years ago on i believe a voyager... I didn't think it was bad and If I would get a "case" for my phone that's what I would get. My girlfriend has the MT and she got her case at bestbuy for like 15 or 20 bucks. It's not a bad little case and it doesn't bother me when I use her phone. She also had a ZAGG on it which is the only screen protector I've ever used. But I messed up putting it on her phone and she took it off and threw it away. The ZAGG was only like 12 or so from bestbuy.

Here is the case that I bought. I love it. The silicone keeps it from slide no matter where I seem to place it.
Silicone Case
and then I got this screen protector.
Skinomi
I have used the Skinomi skins on many different products and I love them. The whole self healing thing is pretty amazing and works great.

ZAGG is the way to go for sure. I've tried a lot of cheaper ones and all of them messed with how the display looked or felt while using the touch screen. It's worth the money.

You know that Triumph comes with built in screen protector, don't you? Mine does not show any signs of wear after more then a month of active use and little regard to how my phone is handled.

Thats exactly what I was going to ask. I read that someone removed that factory screen protector and put a new one on because the response was delayed with the factory one and a new one. Anyone else deal with this?

You could always get a Best Skins Ever. It's exactly the same material as the Zagg shields, and it's much cheaper. I've tried both, and they're both fantastic.

I just started using this phone, with no additional screen protector since it comes with one over the gorilla glass.
If I do get one I would look into Skinomi. I use it for my gtablet and it works great, I have had it on since the beginning of the year and traveling around with no problems so far.

I personally use ArmorSuit, much better response than stock with the same material as Zagg at half the cost.

The best screen protector I've had is no screen protector.

My best screen protector has been (for me) the cheapest one! You can find them dirt cheap (a dollar or two) if you search around. But if you constantly drop your phone, I would get a higher-end one, like Zagg or something.

Any good Ebay Screen Protectors?

So ever since i got my one X i've been on a quest for a good screen protector. i started with cheapo ebay ones that were 6 for $2 but the edges lifted because it was a full screen protector and the quality wasnt great(they would scratch easily). I just recently bought the SGP screen protectors thinking because they were cut smaller i wouldnt have the issue of it lifting at the edges, but i still do. The quality of the SGP is good, it is not as fingerprint resistant as i had hoped but i still have the issue of it lifting. My gf has the Zagg HD on her phone which looks pretty good, does still have a bit of orange peel effect to it but otherwise covers a lot of the phone and does not lift at all because it is a wet application screen protector. I may have to buy one if i end up exhausting all other options, but till then i was wondering if anyone has found a screen protector they like on ebay before i pony up $30 for the Zagg HD at best buy

ZAGG HD, just do it

i wish i had bought a couple of those skinomis when they were .99 . i plan to use a case but from what ive seen the protector could work fine with a case

Those were apparently a bad batch and they wouldn't fully dry or something.
I just got an AT&T branded one from the AT&T store (I got 3 of them for $12) and they applied it for me.
I must say it is very nice. It doesnt have the lifting at the edges because it doesn't go all the way to the edge, it just goes to the extent of the flat part of the screen.
Its clarity is nice and it has a good matte finish.

I picked up the full front and back Zagg yesterday had AT&T throw it on mine yesterday. They put it on for free and I'm liking it.

the original or the HD? the original zagg is pretty awful in terms of orange peel and how your finger sticks to it. rohan when you say matte do you mean the antiglare? how does the screen protector do with scratches, some scratch more easily than others and become pointless because youre looking at a screen covered in scratches

I've only had it on for a day so I can't really tell you much about its durability, sorry.
And yeah I mean antiglare.

I said this in another thread about the Zagg HD.... The HD is FAR better than the regular Zagg in that there is ZERO orange-peel effect and it doesn't go all the way to the edge of the display so a case of any type won't pull up the edges at all. I've always used Zagg shields and because I used to work for Best Buy mobile I have become rather adept at installing them. The Zagg HD also gives you that 'glass' feel as well. It's almost like having nothing on your display at all.

it does have some orange peel effect, nowhere near as much as the original but lets be real, its a sham. there should be no zagg hd, this is just an improved product over their original, unfortunately this is how businesses propose they make money. Make a better product and charge a premium for it. if it weren't $30 I would have had one the day it came out. i'd pay the original $15 zagg price but double that is just ludicrous LUDA!!!

You can get 3 xtremeguards for about $4, no clue on the quality though

Thanks! watched a couple of reviews on ebay, doesn't look like theres any orange peel in the videos. ordered 2 front for my one x and a front and back for my future galaxy S3

I always buy the cheaper ones from eBay that don't have the 'water' application method. Tried that once, never again. Bad results.
I go for the Hong Kong ones, or USA resellers of them since they are cheap and work great for a couple years or more. I use disposable gloves in a humid bathroom to apply so as not to get much fingerprints/dust. Works great most of the time.
I also get the soft silicon cases from ebay which usually wrap around the front enough to cover the edges of the protector so I haven't noticed any edge peeling so far on the screen protector.
