i cant tell whether ther is one on or not.
can someone please confirm.
im asking because i only found out my t-mobile pulse had a screen protector when it smashed one day.
My factory sealed Wildfire did not come with a screen protector.
Mine didn't have one on it
Mine had one one it which had all writing on it to tell me to take it off. I just went and purchased an invisibleshield after that.
just the factory warning one with remove before use on mine
My son has a Wildfire and it had no screenprotector in the box, only the thin plastic wich should be removed.
You really dont need one, it has a freakin gorilla glass

I don`t think it has Gorilla Glass.
According to gsmarena, it does.

According to GSMArena, the Wildfire has an Adreno 200 GPU, the same unit as on the Desire. So, I wouldn't go by what GSMArena says on the Wildfire, even though it is probably the mobile site of my choice.

According to me, it doesnt. When i bought it, i had to wait 3 days to get an invisibleshield protector, and i got a small almost unnoticeable scratch on there during that 3 day period, even tough i kept my wildfire in Golla pouch.

According to Corning, the manufacturer of the gorilla glass, it does!

Now that`s interesting....
Funny thing, it was never a selling point for the Wildfire, like it was for other phones.
I put on a screen protector and after a week or two there is a big scratch on it that makes the touch feel much less smooth. I end up replacing it with a new one every three weeks or so.
Is this normal to do that?

No. I am still using a Screen Protector I put back in November last year.

Maybe you are using cheap, 3 for 2$ screen protectors. Those are pretty much crap.
Mine actually came with 2
One on the bottom (which attacts finger prints like ****)
And one above that one which was quite rigid when I had to take it off.
Guys,
I.just.f*cking.dropped.my.one.x.on.the.asphalt... Now, its beautiful casing is blemished with scars. Is there any available for replacement. I know this usu unibody construction, but i really need this seriously...

Holy s**t, I hate it when that happens.
Couldn't find anything atm unfortunately, I think OEM housing replacements normally become available a few weeks after the phone launches.
I know how you feel mate, I did a similar thing 2 days after owning a Nexus S.

I don't think you're going to be able to do it yourself like other phones. Perhaps HTC will have some kind of service where you can pay a bit of $$ and trade for a refurb.... Otherwise it's going to be hard with a unibody.
M.
can you post some pics
I thought so too because of its unibody design.. sigh.

Nokia lumia 800 is an unibody as well and there is a possibility to change...
So think guys.... What comes in,can always comes out
Gesendet von meinem Sensation mit Tapatalk
i think a case is very necessary...
my camera lens got a scratch from sitting on my table, screen up.. when u put the phone screen up, the entire lens is in contact with the tabletop because the lens is flushed with the metallic ring.. god, this is a real retarded design.. i've used my hd2 for 2 years and the lens has not have a single scratch because the len is recessed compared to the metallic frame... this time round however, 4 days new, and the htc one x len got scratched. real.....
word of advise: need to put something on surface for the phone to sit..
put screen up, camera lens gets scratch.. put screen faced down, entire screen in contact.. higher chance of scratches on screen.. seriously, i dunno why htc keep designing phones with low battery capacity when sense eats battery like kids eat sweets and design phone with cameras sticking out all the time...
they are like the only people around who design phones with the camera sticking out, begging u to scratch the damn lens..
Yep same here..
Coming from the DHD to the Sensation XE i was happy
They improved it a lot....But for the One they lapsed
Unlucky man, sounds like a disaster to me. I'd be so sad if my new toy was damaged hope you get it sorted!

Hey Guys..
Just alittle warning. I dropped my Htc one x from my pocket as i was walking on the street and as you see the glass broke. I am somewhat disappointed, I expected that it could withstand the impact, but no.
Further, i was informed by 3 differnt repair shops that it is impossible to get it repaired because there are no parts made for the phone yet.
One of the guys told me that htc not prioritize this particularly high.
Well i had a nice week with it tho
Ah man that's a real shame I dropped my Desire countless times over the 2 years I had it and it ended up with a 4mm long hairline scratch on the screen. I guess it's the price you pay for the curved glass - less protection round the edges.
Yea i guess i was unlucky. But im back on my old desire now hehe
Might have been alight if you had a case on it.
John.
ouch that makes me take a sharp intake of breath feel your pain bud I'd be gutted

yes the metal ring is not flushed with the glass, glass corners are extruding a bit over the protective frame
style over function, people
i have a pouch but now im thinking of a case, beats the point however
dude seeing that makes me even more protective off my baby now...feel your pain buddy..hope it served you well get a replacement...tell that your dog was playing with it and dropped it

this wont protect the glass still
feel your pain son
By the damage it looks like it hit the side, that case will protect against that, he said he wanted something stylish and light.
I have ordered a white version of the case below, it should give good all-round protection including the camera, and give fantastic grip from all those nobbles.

Its funny how people get jealous of what i get paid to do.
PS. this phone was purchased outright for our own personal use. This was not a review unit nor was it given to us. if you had any common sense you might realize that companies will not give you a phone just for you to smash it into pieces.
Ouch!
Personal use.....droptest .....common sense..
Really should i answer.
Review units....thats a unit a big company GIVES a reviewer to test.
There has been several
Why did I watch this!!! I've dropped every phone I've ever owned and I know what I've got in store now
Screen protector - don't be ignorant to think gorilla glass is unbreakable - YouTube will show you many breaks.
Gorilla glass is awesome, but not unbreakable.

Does a screen protector stop it from smashing face down then, I dont see how it could?

I do reviews for a site and we have a very close relationship with both Samsung and HTC and the word they always use is never "GIVE" it is always "LOAN" and with that they always make use promise that the device will be returned in perfect working order. If it is damaged in anyway the reviewer has to pay for it.
galaxy s2 also has gorilla glass and it really IS UNBREAKABLE(nw I think i should'nt had sold mine )

Would a case protect the screen though?

Well. Last night after a few we thought it would be good to throw out a crayfish trap. I took my phone to use the torch and baited up. I swung the trap and launched it out into the depths along with my trusty torch/phone.
A mate said, "hey, how's that light in the water?".
A moment later I fuzzily realized it was my onex sitting on the freshwater dam bed 2m under lighting up the whole area. I dove in, grabbed it and powered off.
Took it back inside, opened it up, shook it dry and left it in a container of rice next to the fireplace.
Rebuild this afternoon and perfect. Spent 4 hrs with camera in caves. Perfect. 2 hrs GPS. Perfect. Phone and texts. Perfect.
I did also bend up all contacts before assembly.
Note: the only place water got in was headphone port really. For how long it was under I would have thought it would be waterlogged. Not so.
Now loving the unibody design.

Anyway glad to hear my trusty phone won't die in a matter of second if I drop it the water.

Check the WiFi fault thread mate. You can pry it open from the bottom up taking extreme care. I wanted to remove battery but the connector plug is under the motherboard and needed micro Phillips and some skills. Both I lacked at the time so just shook dry and in the container.

question mate, for how long did you own HTC?
these things never fail mate (unless you own a defect)
since the day of my HTC diamond in terms of functionality they are the most reliable devices
ask my wife, she drop her sensation XL like its ok, the back cover and battery fly off, yet so not a scratch
