Hey All!
Quick question. Got a new Dot View case for my M8. Also got cheap screen shields from VZW. When the screen protector was on, the case would not close fully, took it off and now the case closes perfect. I have a Poetic clear case coming in, with no flap that covers screen, and I would like to switch back and forth. Does anyone know of any screen protectors that work 100% with the Dot View, allowing it to close FULLY?
Thanks!
I've been asking the same question. Hate how HTC left zero wiggle room on their dot case closure myself as well. Someone mentioned the Mime Feather tempered glass protector. Just got mine in the mail yesterday and going to install it later today. Hopefully this works. I too would like to switch between cases as dot view isn't oratical for me everyday use but cool for certain occassions. Hope this helps.

Will do. Should know by tomorrow and will update. Let's both cross our fingers here.
Well that was a waste of $30. It closes maybe .5mm more than the $8 Chinese generic tempered glass .3mm thick protector I originally had on it. Yes this protector is crazy thin but obviously not thin enough. Guess HTC really did make it impossible to have a protector on with this dot view case cus no protector is going to be thinner than this one! Looks like we're SOL! Weak

These pictures below are of my original Chinese generic tempered glass protector found on eBay for $8. Not a $30 difference imo of thinnest quality difference.

Thanks for sharing. This blows. Lol
Anything thicker than a simple thin layer anti-glare screen will probably cause issue.
Example: Tempered Glass adds so much thickness the screen no longer fits correctly.
Will a zagg work

Your first dot view case? U where able to switch it out cus it didn't close all the way with protector on screen? Can u explain please? I know Zach is thick like the generic tempered glass, .3mm when my Mime Feather is like .1mm
I'm waiting for some generic knockoff ones to come out. Shouldn't be difficult for companies to reproduce right? It just uses a magnet or something to allow the phone to know to activate the dotview app.

But you don't notice when u double tap to wake the cover bounces? If it bounces then should be noticeable it's lifted. If no bounce, that's what I'm looking for. I'll go by the Verizon store and see if I can exchange.

I am really intrested in this special coating spray, could you tell me how it compares to a screen protector in terms of protection and feel to the hand.
Because I am realy fed up with screen protectors so I would like to give this a try. Can you use it and, not even need a case afterwards?
Thanks in advance,
Is there something that holds the cover closed?

I was once in your shoes. I hated using screen protector. Depending on the brand. Some will have an orange peel effect. Others will have a harder time getting all the bubbles out. I've tried all major brand. Was never satisfied. It always looked like I have a screen protector. Some weren't as smooth to the touch and felt like there was some drag when swiping. But with this liquid armor, you spray twice on the micro fiber cloth supplied and apply to the phones screen and back glass. Wait ten minutes to dry before use. It take about 24hrs to fully cure. The screen feels smooth and responsive just like it would be without a screen protector. I would always recommend to at least have a bumper if you don't want a full case. This product will protect the screen not the phone.

The way the case is made is that there's a little ridge that makes the case flap close perfectly with the rest of the phone. There's no magnets or clicks. I'll try to take a close up picture of that.
Nothing holds the flap. But that seems okay for me, my pocket hold the flap.
As for charging, my lg wireless charger works with this case.
Also, it's not leather... Good fake leather.

At least, until the mythical otterbox for the N4 comes out.
I ordered mine on white 2 weeks ago and received it on Dec27 while the estimated delivery was on Jan22 so it was REALLY FAST... I haven't seen it yet because I'm in New York but my brother sent me a pic and it does look nice

A short review about Sir Lancelot's Armor Holy Grail Tempered Glass Screen Protector. (http://www.sirlancelotsarmor.com/collections/lg/products/holy-grail-glass-screen-protector-nexus4)
I'm currently using a glass from Sir Lancelot's and all i can say it's good.
$31.99 for white
$27.99 for black
Hardness: They claim that it has 9h of hardness. I've been using this for almost 2wks and i can say that it doesn't have any scratches even i always drop my phone.
Case compatibility: It works good with official bumper. But my problem is i can't use it on my ringke fusion it lifts up the glass a little bit but its tolerable and i can't use my poetic border line on it because of fitting issues.
Sensitivity: I can say its has no sensitivity issues.
Warranty: They also offer a life time warranty. (http://www.sirlancelotsarmor.com/pages/warranty)
Fingerprints: I don't have fingerprint problems with this screen protector and it's easy to clean.
Others: It's easy to apply and 100% bubble free.
For all it's a good glass and worth for the money. I 100% suggest this tempered glass protectors. ?

I have problems deciding between the Iloome, Xgear Phanton, this one, or the one from MIME USA. I have emailed Mime Usa to see when they are available for the N4 (no buy button on their page). Which one is the best? And later this year Xgear will have the Krystal Sapphire glass for the nexus.
They all seem to be the same to be perfectly honest lol. Anyone got some experience with these protectors?:good:

LOL Why? Well for one, I am trying to get the perfect tempered glass cover. I have the iloome and may be the one, but it has a hairline scratch on the back side of it. iloome has refunded me the cost, which was awesome, Clarivue, I have my doubts getting any money back from, so saw this one on KS and was hesitant until now. Right now all I want is one that works and letting others know what I went through wouldn't hurt. I mean all these devs on the boards give so much of their time and life, I figured I can give back in some small way.

Is anyone willing to sand down the edge of the case a bit and report back on if it still raises the screen protector?

No the tempered glass. OHHHHHH you wanted someone to sand down the case. Makes sense now lol. Sorry I misread...
Now sanding down the case would compromise the lip and make it look really bad. But thats if I tried sanding it myself. LOL
Some sandpaper, plastic polish and a micrometer screw gauge should be just about everything one should need to undertake this project.
The screw gauge should assist in letting one know when 0.4mm has been sanded off the inside of the lip. This way the phone still fits snug and should cease to raise the screen protector. The plastic polish can be used to rid the hazy sanded plastic look provided the case is made of a solid material that is the same color.
I have already ordered the case but not willing to fish out the extra cash on a screen protector I cant use with my case. Someone must have both and willing to take one for the team in here lol
I was wondering if anyone knew where I could buy a tempered glass protector for the lens of the S6. The camera lens sticks out quite a bit, and I have my phone in my pocket with keys and other objects.
On past phones such as the Note 2 and 3, the glass has always been scratched, to the point on my Note 3 where it hindered the sensor.
I bought the full body and it came with a full camera lens and hole cover. All the other full body kits leave the hole uncovered.

Just bought one. We'll see how it turns out. $0.99 isn't too much to lose if it sucks.
Sorry i'd post pics of it on the phone but I don't own an S6 anymore. Mine was a tiny metal ring around the camera lens. I felt safe enough to use the phone without a case with it on. The only thing is you gotta align the protector properly or it might block the camera.

I doubt it. You could just get a cheap $1 screen protector for any old phone from ebay (not an anti-glare one) and cut it to fit, however you risk losing some functionality of the heart sensor if it is obstructed.
Alright. Finally got the thing in the mail. I use the Ringke slim case and the Nillkin glass screen protector, and I am very happy with the look and feel of the coverage and protection. Adding this thing on was a bit of a disappointment, Without the case, it is like wearing a ten gallon hat on your knee. Painfully obvious. It sticks out and leaves a gap between it and the phone. With the case on, it isn't so bad. It stays beneath the lens protecting "bump" of the case and it doesn't interfere with photos. I have ttached pics with and without the case to illustrate my thoughts on it.

It seems as though the trend for screen protectors has shifted towards a lazy cut where they just chunk out sections near buttons/speakers:

I think this is ugly and looks cheap.
I'm HOPING to find a tempered glass protector that doesn't have halo and isn't cut this way.
If not, I would prefer what I believe is PET (I just know that I don't like thermoplastic polyreuthane).
Normally, I would just end up going to eBay and looking at the cheapest ones on there which generally met my needs in the past, but are now all being cut like the above.
Has something changed recently that prevents manufacturers from having a more precise cut?
Can anyone help me find what I'm looking for?
It's weird, there's tons of properly cut ones for the edge but not the standard S6. I found a couple though.
How about this?

Hey thanks for the links. Unfortunately, I'm in the US.
Is it odd that all these protectors are being cut this way or am I the odd one for caring?
Try these, not glass but almost perfect fit and good price, I would have put a link but i am not allowed to not having enough posts yet anyway its on amazon UK Anker® High Definition (HD) Screen Protector. the other option is the tempered glass screen protector from Remax with the thin black, white or gold line around the outside. Possibly the best option is this from Ebay, I am waiting on it, item number 221796267947

Nope I'm the same. I also wanted a screen protector that would cover all the metal and I don't understand why they're not cut to cover all around the speaker and lens. At the moment, I've got a cheap protector on. It still means that the top area of metal is exposed to potential scratching.

Nope I'm the same. I also wanted a screen protector that would cover all the metal and I don't understand why they're not cut to cover all around the speaker and lens. At the moment, I've got a cheap protector on. It still means that the top area of metal is exposed to potential scratching.

I am the same as well. I got spoiled with my OPO and my tempered glass protector only had a cutout for the speaker. It looked very much like nothing was there. I am not a fan of these glass cut's where they have these giant ass cutouts at the top and bottom. I know you can close it out the manufacturers just don't because it requires much more precision I guess.

I also think that the screens of the devices also require some sort of attention; there needs to be special cutouts so the protector can lay properly. I'm not sure how it works, but you are most definitely correct. I know that with the iphone 6, my wife had difficulty getting one that would lay right; mostly because of the curved edges of that phone.
Just ordered the glass cut out one from eBay UK looks great and exactly what I was after.

Great stuff Do report back with your findings, like if it's easy to fit, does it stick down or stay stuck down all the way to the edges, and does it cover both screen side edges completely. These seem to be the criteria that people often complain about. If so, I'll get one myself.

You might want to consider another protector though.
I asked the person who bought it if it's any good and he said "It stays down but the sticky adhesive doesn't go to the edge so has caught dust unfortunately. I'd probably give it a miss though the cutout is perfect fit.. Shame really"
Moshi tempered glass protectors are the only things I'd use on my phones. For iPhone 6, Galaxy S6, Note 4, etc, they're always edge-to-edge with professionally-looking cutouts. These are sold at AT&T corporate stores.

Yes you dont want it, it also broke on the edge for some reason... clearly just very cheap. On the hunt for another it seems, maybe ill go for the Nillkin CP+
I need one too
For LG G5, I think the screen protector is good choose than case.

I bought one Yootech glass screen protector for my Nexus 5X,but there is one air bubble.So I try another brand,looks great and feels good.
I used the Yootech for G4 and it's pretty great, hopefully this one works well too
Has anyone recieved one of these yet that has the top bit of the phone covered as well? I'm wondering how it interacts with the curve at the top. Thanks.

i wonder what will happen to the bottom, uncovered by the glass, battery part.
thick plastic housing over metal will definitely be sratched badly in first month of use.

I'm returning an item just like this (different vendor) as the adhesive is just around the borders and top.
The adhesive is weak and in my case it was not aligned properly to the "glass" so you could see it covering some parts of the screen.
The middle have no adhesive whatsoever and it does not make contact with the phone screen. This causes the protector to flex and each tap/touch on the screen feels like using an old phone with plastic screen.
One last thing: it is a fingerprint magnet and very reflective.

Dang, that sucks. I'll definitely be needing tempered glass, and this is one reason I'm leaning toward the G5—Edge owners are having a devil of a time finding a good one for themselves.
Please post pics of the Yootech.
I'd be really surprised if there's a tempered glass protector that is already correctly designed for the curve at the top. As in, Will it stay stuck? In the past whenever I've had a curved glass phone it's usually months after its release when a company finally designs a true curved TGSP. I hope I'm wrong because I have a Yootech on the V10 and it's great! (Them not making one for the S7 yet might be a sign as to why this was pulled from Amazon).
I settled for a cheap square one for now [Omoton on Amazon].

It is too expensive in my opinion.Less than $10 is OK.
I'm cautious of anything that claims to cover curved glass. This is just based off of my past purchases.
