hi, just wondering if there's a zagg full protection alternative, like are there any other company's that make a full body protection skin for the desire hd?
Not yet, but I am using the one for EVO 4G from www.stealthguards.com. Not a perfect fit, but I got the best results (minimal smudges, no bubbles) for the $2 I spent on this, compared to the $10 I spent on various other screen protectors specifically meant for DHD!
I think they will come out with one for DHD, as it will be launched in the US soon (Telus).
I emailed stealthgaurd the other day and they replied saying they are planning making one for desire hd

Bodyguardz is a good option ..have them on my iPod ..gr8 quality..and no orange peel effect like zagg's..google for some discount coupons..u will get atleast 10% off.
Best part is these guys have a dry apply option ..was really scared to put all that liquid on my DHD..have ordered a full body kit..will take atleast 2-3 weeks to ship to India..will post a review as soon as i get them ..saw some pics of devdef protectors on this forum..didnt look too good on the back of the phone ..so i'm considering a case mate pop case for protecting my DHD's back.
Hope it helps..
www.bestskinsever.com , have some good expierences with them for my ipod touch protectors. Recently ordered my DHD skin there.

does it have the same sticky feeling and smudges like zagg's ?
Most Screen protectors are not yet available for the Inspire 4G. Anyone knows if another screen protector is compatible with the Inspire 4G? The Evo maybe???
Thanks.
AT&T stores have screen protectors for them.
Yeah, should have mention. They have the antiglare and I find them to be bad. Hides the screens color. Im looking to get the "clear" screen protector.
I got my inspire from the radioshack preorder and they didnt get ANY inspire accessories in. Normally would pay their prices but since I got a $30 store credit I spent it anyway. I got the "invisible shield" protector for the EVO. It doesnt quite fit, had to trim a tiny bit of the top but worked fine after that.
my captivate ones work ok till i can find the inspire ones
best buy had screen protectors a week before they came out. theyre the invisishield or whatever. its what i have.
You guys can buy the ones for the desire hd online. That's what I did

I'm using the AT&T screen protector. As mentioned, they're the anti-glare protectors. I wish I had known that before purchasing it, otherwise I wouldn't have bought it. The AT&T screen protectors for the Aria and Captivate were the clear protectors, I wonder why they decided to switch it up.
I'm not a fan of the ZAGG invisible shields either. So I guess I'm just gonna have to stick with the anti-glare screen until someone releases something better.
Sceen protectors at ATT stores around dallas have been sold out today and should take about 2 days to come in.
I have ordered one from ZAGG, selecting the Desire HD.
I ordered these on Amazon LINK. Should be here by Friday.
Only 4 left in stock
Sprint EVO
I got one from 5 below which is for Sprint EVO. I does not fit perfect but till I get Better hard case with screen protector I decided to spent $3.00 for it.
I ordered the zagg for the desire hd on ebay for 13.98 on ebay with free shipping. No need for a link just go to ebay and type desire hd invisible shield
Is there a big need for screen protectors on these phones? I haven't had a SP on my Captivate since I got it and it is still perfect. Will this phone be more likely to scratch?

I believe the Captivate has Gorilla Glass, and the Inspire doesn't.

Good stuff. I was about to get the same ones, but I read that they have a slight rainbow effect. So I decided to go with the Boxwave Crystal screen protector. I used them with my Tilt and Fuze, and liked them a lot.
Clear-Coat makes the best one I have used. The original one I bought for my Hero is still on and in great shape.
I just ordered it for my Inspire.

Bought the 3M Vikuiti from here...http://www.protectionfilms24.com/article/vikuiti-screen-protector-dqc160-htc-inspire-4g-49025.html. It got pretty good reviews. Installed it today and am super pleased. Nice and crystal clear. Shipping was three days. Cool thing is if you buy two you get a third free. It installed easily.
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.
Just saying...

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.

Yeah I love the silicon case. Is there a privacy screen protector for the MT?

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.
I dropped my phone and scratched the factory second film. After that, I've been naked

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.
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!!!

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.
I'm looking to get a screen protector asap. I ordered some off amazon and messed up installation due to the fact I couldn't keep dust from getting on my screen during installation. Dunno why my room is so dusty.
I don't have time to wait for something off amazon. And there are best buys all over the place. But I think they only carry zag, for a steep 25.
There's also a tiger direct store down there street but I'm not sure if they carry any.

Att store should have screen protectors if you don't want zagg. I'd get the hd version if I had to use zagg brand, though.

I heard zaggs have an orange peel feel. Not too happy about the sound of that. I hope the HD is peel less.
Anyone have any tips to help deal with dust?

A lot of people say to run a hot shower and steam up your bathroom to help with the dust in the air. Personally after going away from zagg on this phone I probably won't get another one of their products.
I have a Zagg HD and I would recommend getting the tempered glass type. If your hands arent oily there is dragging. Annoying while trying to swipe the screen texting.
Edit: If you need one now then buy a cheap one at Best Buy to hold you over until an online order comes through.
