I wouldnt really call it cheap.
Its the same 3M military grade rubberized plastic that Zagg and the rest of them use just they order the big roll then stamp it out they make maybe a dollar off of each phone after shipping and supply.
But its about half as thick as the Zagg and doesnt quite feel as rubbery but hell you are paying 3 dollars and it will be far easyer to fit in the Slip Grip car dock ^_^
its good stuff, been on my g2 for about 2 weeks now.
Just ordered mine anr can't wait. Great product. Used it before.

Same with me. It's pretty good and the screen protector feels good as well.
None of that orange peel stuff neither, the air bubbles and water inside also went away in 3 days and it looks perfect, flawless now. I wish it also protected the sliver metal around the screen but it's good enough for $3.
And also, I like the glossy look of the phone when it's under light.

lol wtf??? Ahahaha
Nice find!!! I went through SOO many G1's. I want to make my G2 live at least a year!
These stealth shields are nice for sure.... $3.50 for two of them off of ebay, free shipping, arrived in 4 days....
Hell of a deal, Hell of a product.... Lower cost and better quality than anything I can get at work at cost.....
They also threw in a cleaning cloth and a squegee to put it on with... this is the service everybody should deliver!
Just wanted to say thanks for passing on this kind of savings to the forum! Even if I only use the screen protector, that's cheaper than anything I could find in stores!

No Problem ^_^
Nice find! I ordered one for my G2 and one for my girlfriend's G2. Just under $5 for the two. Much cheaper then the screen protectors or cases T-Mo sells.
Question: after applying this skin, can I still remove the battery cover?

Yep, The battery cover has its own little skin you can put on.
My only gripe with the whole kit is it doesnt cover the corners of the phone very well.
One quick question: does the skin cover the camera?
Thanks!
I just ordered it, although I'm really just ordering it for the screen protector. How good is the rest of the protection?

New "plush grid" battery door replacements

So on Ebay there are some new battery door replacements available to buy:
Click me
Anybody here already tried it out? If so, how is it?
Didn't try that one... Just received the carbon and crocodile one from here.
These are absolutely the best looking battery covers I've used. The fit and finish are awesome and they are not slippery like the original. Got them in a week after purchase from Hong Kong.

I own the carbon and the leather one.
While they are nice, I don't like the shiny bezel around the material.
And I hope to get even more grip.

It will match the black well I think
Be careful with some of these replacement battery doors if you plan on using them in a case (I know, seems redundant). I got a leather batery door from Ali Express and the plastic cover was thicker than the standard one and not b/c of the leather on it. It just wasn't sized properly so it doesn't fit in any of my 3 cases (Spigen Slim Armor View, Poetic case, random aluminum bumper).
Ooh I'm going to buy the black one. I currently use a stylish blue one with my red aluminum bumper but I think this would look better.
Keep us posted when you receive yours!
a healthy suggestion
have you gave any thought to searching up s4 cases through esty
handmade , exotic cases
have a good day
my sibling has a etsy s3 case and she loves it to this day and she bought it 1 1/2 ago )
So did you guys already receive yours?

i did maybe a week and a half or so ago, went with the traditional Burberry print, i liked it as the print pattern is very exact, my girl hated it, said everyone will know its fake! (no kidding???). The sides which are black started to splinter off, because the door doesn't flex enough when taking off the back cover which i do often changing batteries. I requested and received a refund and was also told i can keep the back. One other thing the back is not plush, it has more of a wallpaper feel to it and its slightly higher than oem back

Need a replacement lcd, Dropped and shattered :(

Was wondering if you guys could help me round up the best prices on a replacement screen for my nexus 5. Im still waiting for my slim armor to come in the mail. phone slipped out of my hand while pulling it out of my pocket just now and it completely shattered. GG3 may be scratch resistant but it sure shatters easily.

Sorry about your mishap. That sucks.
As for replacement...
"The impressive damage resistance of Gorilla Glass 3 is nothing to scoff at, but in no way is the glass layer of the Nexus 5 invulnerable. The right drop will send spider cracks across the display, destroying your ability to comfortably use your device. Like the Nexus 4, LG has bonded the front frame, LCD, and glass into one piece. Replacing the glass on your phone would mean replacing the entire front panel, which will make repairs unlikely and replacements expensive. Given the low cost of the phone on Google Play ($349), it’ll likely be close to half the cost of the phone just for the replacement part, followed by installation fees if you can’t do it yourself."

eBay have them for £180
It looks like it mainly came from the top right corner, wow this is a bummer. $250 on ebay.
Currently the best price I can find, if anyone finds one at a better price, please let me know.

Check with your Credit card company many cards (all amex most discover's most nicer visa's/mastercards) have a 30-180 O crap insureance that whould cover this. Call them its normaly called perchance protection or something like that. They will either buy it back from your for same price you paid or ask them to send them a repair bill and the will credit you the cost of repair. There usealy no deduclatble and the lifetime limist are normally 5k+ so give it a try. This is a befit of buying an unlocked phone in full over a contract phone

Did you have simply check with Google services to ask them how much it would cost for them to replace your screen?
It sucks to break them at launch, I broke a $740 phone my girlfriend bought me for valentines day. It was a Verizon carrier model though so they weren't as popular nation wide and the only screens I could find were outrageous, I ended up buying a used DNA and swapping them, Google might replace it for like 100 or 150 bucks, Motorola used to do that.

Thank you so much I forgot about that! I called them and they're gonna replace it for me.
Update, Visa has issued me a cheque for the full amount of the phone, and to top it off I dont have to send the old phone back!

I need to look into getting one of these credit cards. Mine has nothing like this. It does allow me have to have no international fees, no annual fees, so is great for travelling... but buyer protection does seem awesome.
Lg charges $120 to fix it.
so glad to hear about the stroke of luck! almost wanted to cry for you. lol

Broken back glass question

Hi everyone. I'm wondering if anyone on here has broken there back glass and managed to get it replaced? I pulled my phone out of my pocket a couple days ago and when i looked at it the back cover was shattered. i have no idea what happened. I didn't drop my phone and i don't remember anything hitting my pocket but i figure somehow i must have bumped it. At any rate I purchased a spigen case to cover it up and it looks fine. I'd be able to live with it with the exception that i have a crack going over each of my camera lenses resulting in some distorted pictures. So anyway, short story long, I'm pretty sure that i'm just going to order a replacement back from ebay and attempt the replacement myself. I'm fairly confident from the video's that I've watched that i can handle it ok. If not then oh well I guess. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Has anyone else done this repair and have any information or advice that would be useful. Just curious and figure it's worth asking first. Thanks in advance
I am quite lucky to even after it several falls.carefully replace it good luck .
Only a few people I saw had their back glass shattered. And I think most of them had replaced it either in the service center or got a replacement unit.

Be careful before buying. If you buy any duplicate one, your camera won't be good.

I'll try to find a good one, unfortunately all of the replacements seem to be from China. That being said the camera is already dink'd up from the cracks so I'm not too worried about it. Thanks!

I will. I just ordered a back including the fingerprint sensor this morning. I'm not expected to have it until sometime around September 6th. I ordered from this ebay link, we'll see how it goes. Worse case I'm out $25.
That's okay. But I think Huawei also fixes the back with 100% guaranteed that everything will be fine.

Hi back on the Nexus 5 band wagon but did I get a bargain? I white Nexus 5 32gb with original box it has a good amount of scratches to screen but surely I could cover them with a Matt screen protector I got it for £10 in British pounds
Great deal. The parts alone are worth the price.
