Though I don't know how well it would work, but I would think would need to put the SP first and then the front skin. But I see a problem, if its a dry SP, then it won't go all over the edge. That might cause problems with the fit of the skin itself. Are you dead set on using the front skin?
Oh and don't buy it from there. XGEAR has a 60% off deal on the EXOSkin on their website right now
EDIT: correction, they had the promo for the weekend only. You could still try and see if it works. The code is EXOIPNEX4IPD2
EDIT 2: looks like it expired

I just installed mine tonight. Back of it is flawless and so easy to put on. Feels like real wood. The only beef I have is the front side. It does not protect the actual screen of the phone.....so I tried to install it over my BSE clear skin protector. Wasn't the best move (if perfection was what I was going for) because I ended up ripping the thin sides off to make installation over a barely dried wet applied clear skin. Still looks awesome though and I really really like it overall.
If I had to do it over again....I would have installed the front EXOskin over a tempered glass protector for the complete look. The reason the EXOskin didn't play well with the clear skin already on the phone is that the EXOskin is very adhesive. I think it would have been better over something like tempered glass. That would have given it protection over the actual screen and a wood look elsewhere.
Like I stated though....love mine.

Quoting myself.....the answer is VERY CAREFULLY. honestly best idea is tempered glass protector for front. Its difficult otherwise and probably not going to come out looking "perfect"

Diamond Back Plate Protector

Its cheapish and protects the back from scratching. Got one today and fitted it on easy just waiting for 24hours as suggested before I see better results.
From the feel of it, its the soft rubber type plastic.
So far I rate it as ok but I wait and if it dont work first time I have a second protector to try again.

I bought a full body Invisible shield and used that. Took of the front of the invisileshield because it was too grippy and didn't look as nice. Left the back and buttons with the invisshield and used an exim screen protector.
I have the exim screen protector too the spuc one. Good quality and very very clear. Shame they dont have the back cover protector would of been a better result than the one from ebay, it too is grippy as you say on the back.
So you advice us not to buy one?
Would like to know if it leaves any residue when you remove it?
heres a picture of the back protector, I dont think its fully dried yet but its ok some residue leaks from the edges. I have removed the first one off and washed it with abit of soap and nothing left behind.

Main thing it does is protect the back from scratches.
Here is the Screen protector eXim spuc fitted on. Very happy with it as with all my other phones using eXim spuc protectors.
As you can see its pretty much invisible only thing you can tell theres a protector is the top of the screen near the ear piece and the camera.
?????
I bought a Rubbery kind of case from a company called BOXWAVE.com...pretty cool I thought .....and I picked up a pen/laser/stylus too. Haven't got it yet ...but can't wait
Peace
Mike
I got my slip case for my diamond today. The back with the invisible shield makes it hard to pull out, way too grippy. Don't know if I want to keep the invisible shield on at all
Glad to see someone with the exim spuc protectors, they are REALLY GOOD. Had them on my last 3 phones.

Generic Chinese Screen Protector comparison

Reading the terrible Zagg reviews I thought I'd look at the generic screen protectors that come at 1/20th the cost.
I didn't buy an HTC one but had a couple of iPod ones that came with a case years ago. I cut it into a square and fitted it to half the screen.
It was very easy to fit, clean the screen with your glasses cloth or any such thing, use something solid and dust free to fan away any dust that lands, E.g. a credit card, peel off the bottom tab and place on. It was simple enough pushing the bubles to the edge with the card or fingernails.
I saw people were worried about the guard changing the colour slightly or making it fuzzy and even making it more greasy than normal so I took some photos to show you. They feel like plastic, not like the screen but they're not sticky and they come clean off. Obviously the guard is on the top of the screen and the edges are rough because it's hard to cut.
Let me know what you think, I rekon I'll get a couple and see how it goes as they're only 50p and work great.

Nice, never liked the back cover though

Skinomi Carbon Fiber Skin is absolutely gorgeous

So I decided that I got tired of Samsung's infamous glossy polycarbonate fingerprint-magnet casing and decided to do something about it. I think you'll find the results below are quite stunning if I do say so myself.
Feel free to comment and share your thoughts/questions. : )

Neither, if you click the main link you'll notice this is actually a vinyl wrap that applies onto the device, effectively adding almost not thickness.
A vinyl wrap? I feel like that will eventually peel or catch on the edges with long term use... in and out of the pocket and eventually start peeling

Depends how you use it. The glue on it is really thick and tough so it does not peel easy. Also they recommend to use a heat gun once you're 100% sure you want to set it the way it is so the glue melts and bonds to the plastic (doesn't actually bond but sure feels like it afterwards).
I bought this instead, well see how it is

Tempered glass screen protector not fitting properly

Hey all,
I tried installing a tempered glass screen protector but it simply won't stick on one corner of the phone. If you try to fit it again and start sticking it from the other end, then the other side won't stick.
It is like the screen is not even.
Went to a local store today to fit another brand but they encountered the same problem.
Anyone faced this issue before? Maybe I'm not using a good enough brand? Kinda frustrating.
Thanks all

I'm using the Spartan tempered glass protector from extreme guard. Works great for me and it was super cheap.

Never had an issue with Spartan Tempered Glass.
As above. Just put mine on. It was only a few pounds from eBay and went on super easy. Much better than the film type protectors you get. Sorry you're having trouble with yours. Could very well be an issue with your screen.
Thanks guys,
I went to another store and just got a generic tempered glass one and it actually fitted great! Not sure what went wrong with the first two.

glad to hear it. At least you know now it was the protectors with the issue and not your phone enjoy!
I have been running with HTC One (M9) - Flexible Glass from PureGear and I have loved it. To put in on, you put it in the holder and just roll it on. Has not peeled at all, and is great quality. Went with this one because my store carried it and i wanted something to protect it as soon as i got it

i like the Glass-M screen protector. hight quality in glass and industrial design. http://glass4m.com/product/glass-m-premium-tempered-glass-screen-protector-for-htc-m9

Best thin, grippy case and tempered glass screen protectors for V35/V30

Hey guys, I've had a V30S, and a V35 for the last 2+ years or so. I've tried a few cases, like the Ringke Fusion (smoke black), but in the end the very best one I liked and keep buying is this one (link below) I tend to keep my phone in my pocket a lot, and only take it out when I'm sitting for the most part, so I don't drop my phone often, so I don't want a bulky case, something to protect from scratches and help with grip mainly. This case is slim and minimal profile, so won't give the best drop protection but it's beautiful and functional. Choose V30 under model to get the correct version. The camera bump is a bit low in the cutout, but nothing is covered or obstructed at all. Here's an image of the case in the quote below.
The tempered glass is a UV tempered, so it requires application of a UV glue between the screen and the protector and UV curing. This method prevents the tempered lifting up easily from the curved edges of the screen. I've attached an image of mine in the quote as well to give an idea of fit. This protector covers just about everything that's not covered by this case, but the case won't lift the edges of the protector if the protector is centered correctly. Please note this protector has seen a year of abuse, and has slowly started lifting with bumps and the crack on the top right (hit it against my table couple days ago). When it was new it was perfectly flush without any air bubbles and stayed that way for quite a while. I may replace mine now, if so I'll post a pic with the new protector on once I get around to doing it!
In my humble opinion, this is the hands down best case and screen protector combo around for the V30 or V35.
