ORIGINAL THREAD FOR GALAXY GEAR (FIRST GEN.).
GEAR 2, NEO AND FIT WILL BE SIMILAR:
PROJECT FINISHED!
So after another full day of measurements and trial-n-error ... I finally got a finished product, well a few actually ... well a finished product with a few options lol.
Right now I'm rocking the Black skin on my Gear Gen.1 and it looks awesome! SO clean and sleek looking with just enough chrome to set it off with an expensive luxury look, but is now fully protected on all of its sensitive spots. The clasp protector was originally made because as a graphic designer, my wrist settled and was banged on a desk basically 8 hours a day, and that was my cure to keep my watch looking brand new. The full face idea came just for the option to change the color of my watch, the stainless steel looks great and all, but gets played out and sometimes just looks too much ... But I dealt with it, not really having any time to sit and work the schematics for a full face protector. Then it got to the point where I had to hang a towel over the hand railing of the treadmill because every once in a while I would accidently bang my watch off of it while doing my cardio at the gym, luckily the steel has held up well and I've always had one of my screen protectors on it, so it hasn't really been a big deal.
Now with a finished product in hand and on my wrist, I'm just kind of pissed I "back burnered" this project for so long! lol. As I stated before, I know everyone has kind of moved on to the new Gear 2 and the Gear 1 is kind of old news, But I still sell GG1 Screen & Clasp Protectors on a daily basis so I know there's still somewhat of a market for stuff like this. Regardless, I'll have my hands on a GG2 here soon to play around with and while doing so I will have a chance to get the measurements for this type of product for the new Gear 2 and possibly Gear Fit, neither have a speaker in the clasp, But I know the Gear 2 has a stainless steel clasp, and speaker or not, that thing is getting banged up ugly from daily use. So all the GG2 people, stay tuned because that project is just around the corner.
Since I originally dropped the GG1 Screen & Clasp Protectors at the end of last year I've seen a boom in people selling products like it on web-stores and places like eBay & Amazon, I'm not saying in anyway that I invented these, But when I made them, the Gear was fresh on the shelves and I couldn't find anything to protect the exposed/sensitive parts of my $300 investment, and once sold to the general public they really took off! and I thank the people here at XDA especially for being my "Beta Testers" in a way and hopefully the people who bought them here were completely satisfied! It was extremely shocking that something I made for fun/necessity turned into an actual marketable successful product and doing it literally as a one man team was a bit much at times, but awesome! ANYWAYS! the difference between what is currently being offered when it comes to full face protectors for the GG1 and what I was able to put together is, my skin covers the ENTIRE front of the gear, As far as I've seen on the net, they only cover the top and bottom portion of the Gears stainless steel face (If I am missing any out there by all means piss on my parade lol) mine are designed to cover the entire front for full protection as well as the option to change the look of the Gear all together. Pretty cool I think.
With all this being said, the only real challenge I faced upon finishing the design was getting the skin onto the Gear and on correctly, the material used for the skin is very flimsy and hard to maneuver, kind of like putting a screen protector on a phone, but worse! lol.
BUT! within a few minutes I had a solution, which was actually a perfect solution. Not only did it do the trick of being able to easily handle the material while putting the face protector on, it made it extremely easy to keep the skin perfectly straight and allow the installer to line everything up perfect for a perfect hassle-free installation (when done correctly) so I am pretty excited about it, and when these become available to the public (Very Soon!) that installation material will be sold with the protectors.
I've also decided to scratch selling the Clasp Protector by itself now that the Face Protector is done and they will be sold as a set, overall less confusing for the customer and myself when it comes to filling an order and just makes more sense. But now that I have a few color options available (more coming very soon!) I think I would be willing to mix and match colors/patterns with the Face & Clasp Protectors if anyone asked.
On that note as you will see in the pictures I currently have 4 color options available:
- BLACK (Jet-Black)
- PURPLE (Deeper Purple, Almost Plum)
- GRAY (Storm Cloud Gray, somewhat close to the gray color offered by Samsung on the Gear 1)
- GREEN (Darker, sort-of hunter Green)
COLORS/PATTERNS I PLAN TO HAVE VERY SOON:
The original Chrome/Steel color I offered with the GG1 Clasp Protectors which seamlessly matched the stainless on the GG1.
- Red
- Yellow
- Blue
- White
- Brown
- Orange
- Carbon Fiber
- Leopard/Zebra Print
And any other Miscellaneous colors/patterns I can get my hands on, just to offer a wide variety and the buyer the option to uniquely express themselves.
And now for the new pictures (Better detail and well-lit pictures to come):
SAME ORIGINAL CLASP PROTECTOR JUST MATCHED WITH FACE SKIN.
And just to show off a little bit of the design aspect of what goes into designing something like this:
Let me know what you think! I cant tell you how happy I am with the final product, it looks awesome in person, these pictures show a great representation, but don't do the final product justice compared to in person, the quality and fit make it look like theres no decal at all, looks like the watch came this way! Very happy!
And again, any and all input appreciated!
Thanks!
Hey, I love what you got going on here, I can beta test for you if you want? I had a protective full body skin on my gear from amazon & it sucked ass! I like the execution of your design & the variety of colors/patterns, would love to have one on my gear =)
So do you have an eBay link to your gear 2 neo sets? I would love a carbon fiber skin set and maybe a couple of others. Thanks and great work.

Will the protectors be waterproof? If that is what you are asking, they should have no problem being submerged in water, but I have not tested that, once a seal is made between the watch and vinyl protectors it should have no problem with water.
Oops never mind I thought the case was actually a case
Have the carbon fibre ones been dropped? I was planning on getting one on payday

I'll take a black one for gear 2
Hey man sorry for the long delay. can i still purchase the black one for the gear 2 neo? do you have one that covers the gray border of the watch face? doesnt matter either way. pm me the info on the cost and where to send payment. i can leave feedback here when i get it to help.
Was going to pre order the S6 in black but after seeing them in person at Best Buy that White Pearl looks mighty nice.
Which color looks the best you and which color are you getting?
White wouldn't have been horrific if it wasn't for the white lenses on the camera at the back. With it, it looks absolutely terrifying.
I would personally go for either black or blue, but first I have to see the latter one in person, because it is too bright of a color and it might not look as good in person as it does on pictures.
Pre ordered the white edge from verizon from Best Buy. The darker colors look to be fingerprint magnets.
I usually prefer white phones, but the Nexus 5 got me used to having a black face. I think I might explore replacing the black glass back with a white one somewhere down the line for a similar Stormtrooper aesthetic.

Black all the way! I have only had one phone in white, that was an iPhone 4S, it was good looking for the first few months and after that I got sick of having a big black rectangle on a white body. When I switched to my Galaxy S4 I went black (not really black at all) and it was a lot better to my eyes.
In the end, its personal preferences.
If I was stuck with those two colors I'd definitely pick black.

I think if your a guy and got a white phone that you will regret it.

I'm planning on buying an s6 next week. I'm really interested about the case and have watched videos about it however I want to here more opinions from the users themselves. Thanks in advance to anyone who can a short review and post a picture.
Guys im talking about the quick window case from samsung
I have the OEM Protective Cover in Black Sapphire to go with my S6 of the same colour. Basic protection but fits nicely. Will try and get some photos up later on. Here's the link to the UK Samsung store so you can see it:

It does look nice, the black/blue changes depending on the angle of view
Looks good on the phone. Absolutely useless if you change the LCD density in build.prop (my main reason for rooting any android phone)
I love the Aura Glow color in the Galaxy Note 10 or the A51, so what I did was search for Wraps or Vinyl on Google, and what I found was:
https://www.aliexpress.com/i/32925791290.html
Apparently they only did it for Note 9, and S10 ?. Being that it is a newer device.
Anyone know of any way to adapt that sticker or create or someone who has done it?
Ufff... That skin doesn't look good especially the bottom. But ask the seller of the already sells them for a few devices chances are good that he has our can make them for the S10 or even already has them but they are not listed. Also if you don't care about water proofing you can get a new back glass in the color prism silver and replace yours. Or sell your current device and get the S10 in prism silver that one is the closest to aura glow.
Edit: I clicked the link and there are a ton for S10 from other sellers didn't you notice that?

Well, I thought the Prism Silver only came for the S10 5G. And the other S10 at the bottom of the page are not the same, because the others do only vertical color effects, Something similar to Redmi Note 8
I have a prism sliver s10 which is very close to aura glow.
Hi All, I am trying to make custom skin (probably of Vinyl or Sticker) So I need to know exact dimension of back panel. Anyone is having schematic diagram or reference diagram where i can find exact dimension for back. If anyone ordered dbrand or any popular skin , they can help me with exact dimension. Thank you in advance.
