I had a 3M one for my Incredible, it was PERFECT! Did exactly what I needed to, to stop nearby lookers peaking at my screen! All my friends would always comment "how are you able to look at your screen because its so dark!", and I'd show them and they'd be amazed. Sensitivity was never an issue, and the protector was very smooth, not like the other cheap brands you see on eBay and Amazon.
Def well worth it, I'm just waiting for them to release it too. I actually emailed them today asking when they'll be available for purchase. Hopefully soon. Will keep ya updated.

why diminish the screen quality with this. im sure 99.9% of the populating wouldn't give a crap what you are doing on your phone. lol..

Privacy screens are only for people who think they're important. In reality the guy/girl next to you could give 2 ****s, I don't think I've ever looked at someone using their phone besides them purposely showing me something.

In reality, some people are nosey and some people are not. Just as some people are more private then others.
Thats the whole point of privacy screens. They are not for everyone.
They may not be for you, but no reason to come off as a **** about it.
At my workplace? People are super nosey...

If they have to open it to apply it, it would.
When I watched the demo at CES they stated they do not need to open the device. They put the phone into a machine that released a 'fog' which spreads through the phone which waterproofs it.
looks neat and if you are one of those people dropping $40 on a case you probably wouldnt mind dropping the $60ish it looks like it costs. I'll be considering this.
How do water damage indicators work with this?
No way that's a real woman sitting in that chair. She got splashed and didn't say a word?! Isn't this the same thing they have a t Best Buys. There's a big jar full of water with an iphone sitting at the bottom.

Thanks for the update, they have yet to respond to any of my e-mail inquires about it and as far as I can tell Hz0 only deals with OEMs, I can't wait.
Can't wait to freak people out by using my Cell Phone as an underwater camera @ the pool lol.
Galaxy S III on Liquipel
Liquipel is now offering the Level II Slosh & Slip Protection option for the Galaxy S III
Not really happy that it's only Level II, but my phone is on the way.
I wish with this kind of technology, phone manufacturers would just add this to their manufacturing processes. obviously no one would because it would be higher cost and less revenue from non covered accidental damage.... Sigh

Good luck with that... This isn't designed so you can take your phone in the pool. Read the faqs and disclaimers.
Looks like the site was updated for the same price as everything else the s3 get "slap proofed" very disappointed and looking for alternatives.

Liquipel...
I got Liquipel on my iPhone 4 back in June and it’s saved it from getting destroyed at least three times. I even dropped it in a bubbling jacuzzi and it survived. I’ve been a believer ever since. You can’t tell anything has been done to it either, it comes back all clean in a nice metal container with a microfiber pouch. None of the water sensor stickers changed color when it got wet so even if it fails I can get a new phone on Apple. All in all I’d say its worth the $59. You no longer have to worry about losing a phone over a spilled drink or a little rain. Just makes you feel good.
Liquipel is going to be at CES again this year can’t wait to check out the show, I hear rumors of a machine doing free treatments at the show. :good:

[POLL] does our Nexus really have a defective display? TRY THIS WALLPAPER and VOTE!

hi all.
i think my display is defective. i've read many thread about it but i haven't found anyone describing the same exact issue, very noticeable horizontal lines.
however, since i've also read that someone who sent the phone to samsung, received it back with another defective screen, i'm asking your help.
is this problem, exactly this one, so widespread and i have to live with it or i'm just one of the few and, since it's still under warranty, i should send it to samsung immediatly!? :fingers-crossed:
there are 2 attachments, the wallpaper i ask you to try (it is more noticeable with red, but it appears with most solid colors) and a photo showing how mine looks like, screenshots don't reveal it.
do you see the same effect?
this is not a rom issue, i've experienced it with all the roms i've tryed.
thanks a lot for your help!
Go for it, but that's if Samsung actually won't charge you for it, I feel like they'd claim you damaged it, being the assholes they are, and then charge like $200, in which case you may want to either get a new phone or buy another GalNex from eBay.
Good luck, warranty claim sucks lol

actually, i hope they won't say i'm guilty for an issue like this, how can the user do that...
i guess you don't experience the problem.
can you please vote anyway? i'd like to collect as many votes as possible, thanks!
guys, please... i need your help to collect as much experiences as possible! :fingers-crossed:
Then use the existing display thread.
I also have this issue. Going to take it to best buy since I have insurance from them.

will do. i have the best buy protection plan on mine so i know i will get a new phone. my problem is if they will give me a 32gb version or if they will screw me for the 16gb ive seen on the verizon site. but ill let u know
some one more please, just to have a significative sample!
no lines on mine
OMG!! Its a defect?? I thought this is how gnex is....
But anyway I don't have warranty...:sly:
I'll spend rest of my life thinking its a unique nexus style
Sent from my defective Nexus.
Actually this is Samsung screen. I used to have it on my Galaxy S and when screen broke and I got new screen, it was the same like this.Galaxy S3 of my dad has it. my Gnex has it. But not that much. But the lines should be vertical. Your screen is probably messed up because even that is normal, you really have to focus to see this with naked eye. Those lines also appear rarely.
Wow, mine is perfect. I'm awesome (jk)
I could barely see any lines but I do have the horizontal lines. Mine are most noticeable on white backgrounds and stuff, mostly the browser. It bugs me but it doesn't, it's not too bad and it goes away completely with more brightness and gets worse when the screen is really dim.
thank you guys for having shared your experiences... thanks a lot!
let's see if we can increase our significative sample...
nope, mine is flat, no lines

Picked up a note III demo (Continued)

I didn't have a chance to reply to this thread thats why I wanted to continue it. I have been playing with a demo of this device for about two weeks now. Its not for t-mobile but for another carrier (not international). Please take a look at the screen shot you guys were asking for. The home button is a finger print scanner and has the USB3 port.
Wait really? A fingerprint scanner!?!? Thanks for the pic btw!!

No body is forcing you to believe anything. The housing of the device Im using is not the final product so even if I uploaded a pic of the device you still wouldn't believe is the Note3.
I wish they hadn't closed the other thread started by Admiral Sir Manley Power. He has a pretty good rep in the Note 2 forums and I give him the benefit of the doubt. Besides, it's been know that Samsung has shipped units of the Note 3 to carriers for testing. From what I've read, they shipped 3 or 4 different versions so the final product hasn't been decided yet.
Also forgot to mention, the speaker is now on the bottom, between the pen hole and the usb port!!!!!! Very excited about that!!

Do you own a Note 2? The Note2 has the speaker on the back, not the bottom.
Im assuming the final product is going to look like a big GS4. Since the Mega already looks like that, I really thing the Note3 is going to follow that look.

Can you list specs of hardware and software... N2 vs. N3(the prototypes that you have)?
In the past thread you guys asked for a screen shot of the app provided. I took the screen shot and posted it, but now thats not good enough. I don't need to proof nothing to no one. If you guys want to believe that the release of the Note 3 is near fine, if not, then fine with me as well. As for me, this thread can be closed as well. I don't even know why I tried.

I wanted the screenshot and its enough for me. I believe this guy 100%. Specs and the fact that it identifies the device in the app is genuine. No he should not compromise his job for a stupid pic.
I have the iphone 5 ios 7. And carry around and people dont believe me when i tell it is the actual ios 7. They ask all these questions with tangible evidence in my hand and they still wont believe me. All you need is evidence mate. If you have evidence and they still wont bite... then they are ignorant

This, a million times. A mod should just lock the thread because:
- OP is breaking his NDA (Non-disclosure agreement) ---> Legal issues
- It could or could not be fake; we have no way or proving either
- It's just going to start a war between people who believe and those who don't
Seriously, just wait for the damn thing to come out. When I worked for Sprint and Verizon, we'd have reps from every manufacturer come in to show us upcoming devices. I once asked an HTC rep if they (the company itself) were behind the numerous and convenient leaks out on the internet, and the guy said "Yes, some of them."
This thing is going to leak one way or another. So just lock the thread.
As this is not a Note II it can be discussed in the other device sticky
Although I do not see the point
Stating you have something that you cannot prove or show or talk too much about is taunting not development
It would be different if there was a near release date but there are no release dates as of yet.

Hey guys I came across this website today and was wondering if anyone has applied this to any of their previous or current devices. This company States that they can water proof your phone completely inside and out.

Ah yeah I actually saw that video yesterday. There really aren't many people with reviews out there though to get a good opinion. The product is almost too good to be true though.

my buddy did this to his N5 and said it came out great. i never asked if he ended up testing it, but he's had no issues with it.
I read somewhere that the texture of items with this treatment feels somewhat different. I can't find the link the the source, but someone had mentioned that it felt grainy. Something like that is scary to me- anyone have any experience?
They accept no responsibility??? $60 buys you jack ****! For $60 I would expect some sort of warranty.

There's plenty of videos on YouTube about this. One of the more normal ones (meaning not from a known personality) is from some Asian guy who said it actually didn't work with his iPhone. Water sensor was red. But then his phone ended up fine. Something like that.

Sent from my SM-N910T using Tapatalk
it's snakehead. From the pictures it looks like a real snake skin that they left the head on and is plopped in the middle of the back. I'm hoping it's big enough to use as a stand. I was on the fence about ordering one, but damn, this is just bat s__t crazy.
Wtf
Well they probably ate the meat
These have been available for a good few years, if you have interest in these, do check if they are genuine snake or fake, If they are real snakes do check with customs and cites, it's illegal to import these without a permit and approval certificate from cites.
And since the shops does not have approval for these, it's unlikely you can get approval from cites.
