Awesome! Mine took a couple days to arrive...take your time and go slow when you apply it on. It'll come out great.

Do the screen first, then the back, then the sides allowing each portion to set & dry before you move on to the next

Keep us posted!

personally had a bad experience with ghost armor with my iphone 3gs. the part of the edges kept peeling and they kept charging $5 for replacement installation
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] WMguy:
Put mine on the battery door last night. Going to do the rest tonight. VERY impressed with the product (and I've use a lot of different brands in the past). I got the Matte finish. Nice and grippy and looks flawless. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Radsolutionz:
hate to say i told ya so.... the black is wayyyy better stays clean and fresh looking...

Ghost armor=awesome. Sorry I'm trying to get my 10 posts. I ported a Skyrocket rom and i need 7 more
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
This looks like a AWESOME skin/case. I am going to head to the mall today and see if they have any. How long does it take to apply at the mall? Unlike doing it yourself, can you use the phone right away when they do it at the mall?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] WMguy:
Finished installing tonight. One if the best products I've ever used. Flawless! #matte
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
How easy is it to do yourself?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
For the beginner I say it's about an 8/10 difficulty level. Patience and following instruction to the t will be your best bet.

Order it, give yourself two hours free and your should be fine
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
well I went to the mall to see the skin first hand. I then attempted to ask the rep would they place it on my phone if I bought mine online? He told me that it would be the same price. LIES, the site has a running discount of 30% which comes out to $20 vs $36 at the mall, there's no way the priced for install is that much. I hope it is easy to place my self because I an buying it online.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Boweezie:
lol, you know what's funny is that you can somewhat do this yourself if you go to 3M's website. They have the sample vinyl pack that includes various styles/sheets - try it as a test run!

So i brought the White GA online and like the previous user state, it gets dirty pretty fast...(ie everyday dirty hands and now showing slight blue color leak from jeans)

i tried cleaning it with soap water and cloth, but scratches are starting to appear....

so my question is that since i brought it online, do you think i can go to the one of the locations and have they replace it for me?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] EffnNice:
i just ordered me the gun metal ga :) i wondrr how long it takes to get to new york
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
Hate to say it but my white one looks bad after two weeks. It was a dirt magnet. Tried to clean it daily but the stains from my blue Jeans and jacket persisted.

End up doing a warranty replacement this afternoon for the gun metal gray! Should look hot when it arrives this time next week!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
Did you buy it online and then you to the store to get it put on?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
Nope...bought it online...installed it myself :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ugotproblemz:
Did u went to the GA location to get it replace?? I ordered it online...so I'm not sure if I can replace it at those locations...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
No...the girl @ GA cust service told me I have to pay for installation charges since I bought it online.

I requested a new one to be sent to me directly. You have the option to have the GA mall reps replace your skin but you have to pay for installation
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
How easy was it to install you're self? I should get mine today, nervious to even attempt it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
I think I answered your question eariler... the process is not difficult if you take your time. An hour and a half minimum if you're new to this...

If you order it and follow my instructions a few pages back you should have a successful install.

Don't expect the screen to be fully dry/clear for about 24-48 hours
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
I know, I just wanted another persons experience installing it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
I understand. This is one of those things if you do not have at least 2 hours free its very easy for things to go wrong and you end up tossing it in the trash.

Step 1. Remove the battery from the phone

Step 2. Clean all surfaces...remove all grease, smudge, dust etc...

Step three....Start to apply the skin based on the included instructions (warm water, small amount of dish soap etc)

Do the screen first because its the one that requires the most precision. Do the back next, then the sides and finally the rear camera.

If you go in that order you'll do fine on your first try.

This was my first ghost armor application and you see how mine turned out... :)

You can do it man! Its not that hard. 6.5/10 difficulty. Taking your time is the best thing you can do to leverage that difficulty level and bring it down to a 3/10simply because you're going slow and can correct any problems that pop up

TIPS

Keep your hands wet at all times, use the cloth and a credit card ALWAYS. Don't just use the credit card by itself. It'll ruin it...

Run the shower and do the installation in a hot steaming bathroom to reduce chance of dust getting under the screen protector

Make sure you NEVER allow the sticky side to fold over and bond while dry. This kills most people's installations...

Wet your hands & peel off just the piece you want to apply 1 at a time! Good luck

You should have more than enough tips to help you get it right the first time :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
Thank you buddy. I just arrived in the mail. I have to step out of the house for a bit, but I will try to make time to do it tonight. I will post pictures if it turn out good. I will read through the instructions that came with it and read what you posted to make sure I follow all the steps. Thank you again. Excited! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] EffnNice:
sorry for unrelated topic but i ordered my ga at the 28th and it shipped at the 29th then fedex estimated delivery os jan 6th x.x is this true?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
Possibly? There's no way for us to know until it arrives...

if it makes you feel better, my warranty replacement was also shipped out today as well
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
Finished...still needs some time to dry, but it was really easy. I think I stressed too much on messing it up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
How long did it take you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
It was about a hour. The first application to the from took me the longest, maybe 15 mins because I didn't catch the part in the instructions that it can be a little cloudy till it drys. I kept re-doing it because I thought I got too much soapy water between the screen. It is starting to go away though. Otherwise it turned out really good for a first try. :)

Thanks for all your help guys!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
No prob! It looks great :-) My advice would be put it in a case. Don't put it in you're Jeans pocket because it'll ruin the white quickly. That's what happened to me. my white back turned Assn ugly gray blueish color and was permanently stained that way.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
Nice, so this morning when I got up I notice there was a TON of lint and dust under the front screen application. Showed my buddy at work and he gave me this application spray that he got with his screen guard protector. The kit came with a second front screen protector so I will try that application again when I get home. Is there a way to remove all the dust and crap off of the first one if I take it off and re-use it later?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
I've never reused a screen protector but with these I can imagine you can if you wet your hands and peel it off gently & immediately place it in soapy water

Should be able to clean the dust off that way
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
I will try it and see how it turns out. Will post my results.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] captain134:
I just got this applied @ a kiosk. I got black because they were out of gunmetal. So far very happy and amazed at how much better the screen looks. Not sure I like the feel of it on the edge of the phone but otherwise very happy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
Does anyone have gun metal? If so, can you post pics? I have to wait a few days for mine to arrive...can't wait to see how it looks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] EffnNice:
my gun metal should be arriving soon if i cant post the pictures first can you? but they keep changing the dates x.x
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ugotproblemz:
Quick Question, For those who have shipped in their original Ghost Armor for a replacement, how much did you have to pay TOTAL? (ie, shipping or any additional fees)

im trying to compare(waiting time & money) is it more worth it to ship in for a replacement or just get one at a nearby Ghost Armor location!

Thanks in advance,
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Radsolutionz:
hey i just got a replacement phone in the mail... unfortunately ghost armor doesnt protect from falls... yeah i know... n e way my question is... how much do they charge in the mall to reapply it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
From the information that came with my Ghost Armor its anywhere from $5 to $10 for installation at the mall.

---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 AM ----------

Radsolutionz: Were you still within your 14-30 days period or something? I didn't know the stores would actually replace them them for you.

Armor info

FYI- If you get the white carbon fiber you will most definetly need/want another clear armour... they will put it on top of the white, it looks great and will triple protect and keep it from any of the "dirty" issues everyone is talking about. My local mall guy does it all the time, talked me into it after seeing his phone. Plus it's only $15-$20 bucks extra. I also saw it with the gun metal- looks a little too crazy sparkling to me. Like silver dust all over it. Personally the only color I liked was the black, and that's what I ordered, but have to order online to get the 30%- mall guy wouldn't match it. White was okay too, but for me the seams were too obvious/unattractive unless you get the white phone. I'll post the clear-carbon-clear pics when I get it on there. Gonna take it to the mall for $10 install when I get the package in a few days.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] EffnNice:
man ghost armor just sent me white instead of gun metal T_T I was so happy when i received the package but i dont know what to do now.. it took fedex 2 weeks to deliver the package to my house i dont want to wait even longer for the next slot

white doesnt look too bad from the pictures but the "it gets dirty fast" comments gets me scared to just slap it on thats why i went for gun metal.

but ima have a TPU case on top of it so does anyone think i will be fine?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
I would call and ***** them out. Honesty it took them 2 weeks to get to you and they still got it wrong. Maybe they will send you to the store to get it replaced? I would demand they install it too for free for your hassle.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] EffnNice:
the thing is i live in new york city no stores around me lol

syner i saw u ordered the white one is it still clean and would you recommend i should just slap it on.?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:

are you putting white carbon fiber on your white phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tdizzle404:
I had white carbon fiber on my titanium and got a white replacement phone Kinda wanna get white on the back and clear around the Bezel. Wonder if the'll do that guess it depends on who's at the kiosk lol but the were all out yesterday and today . Hope the get some soon I think this white phone will get dirty quick.

But Ghost armor is the best I've put it on all my phone and its worth every penny.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sighx:
Honestly.... ghost armor.... I've never seen any screen protectors do this.

I have these little bumps on my screen (the protector) that was caused from the outside(I'm not even sure how they got there) however, they're not even going away - Its just like a dent going inwards(odd?)

None of any other screen protectors I've used ever had bumps going inwards from the outside - (and stays that way)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kvizz:
I was thinking of doing that because I like the carbon fiber look, but am going to wait for a promo code. $30 is a little expensive.

So they cover your skins even if they just get dirty? Or something along those lines?

You could send it in, pay for shipping both ways and receive a new one?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pb3000:

yea i saw yours which looks awesome, and the reason i want to buy one, but my sgs2 is a white one and i would like to see a white sgs2 with the white armor, but im guessing ill just buy it.

Thanks for the reply
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DesignGrits:
oh, gotcha....interesting. Post pictures when you get it skin. Personally I don't think it will look good, but it might, will have to see. I get my white one tomorrow afternoon, I could always take my white skin off my black and lay it on my white and take pictures for you?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jovy23:
The ghost armor case looks pretty good i like how the way it looks. I might buy one and add it to my t989 case collection.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pb3000:
i would really appreciate and thank you, if you did that i got a new protective case from ebay, because the previous one you can't push the side buttons, but i would also want to get ghost armor.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SwervFusion:
I too am still loving this sp. No scratches..super easy to clean finger prints...its great. But also i dont put anything else in my pocket with my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zweetz32:
those dents on the screen protector are from pressure. They're actually dents and will not go away. Only way is to get it replaced. I found out that it gets damaged too easily and I had it replaced 3 times. Each time it was 2 weeks apart and they only have a 7 days warranty. So I ended up not using the screen protector and got a plastic one. works better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] SwervFusion:
Man i havent a clue...i dont have any dents on mine. This screen is supersensitive so im not sure how hard ur pressing?

Anyone else have dents on theres?

Did you get it done at a kiosk? My warrenty is lifetime..$5...but i just got the sp done..not the full deal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] levelfamily:

If I were him, I'd get the clear armor call it a day. As for me, I just exchanged my gray CF for the white. I missed the white & the gray started peeling.

The kiosk rep recommended hand sanitizer to clean it.

Here's some updated pics of the White CF in my new case. I love it & it keeps the phone looking sharp
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sandiegopaneraiguy:
Does anyone who has used this also use the OEM Samsung car dock? Im curious to know if the phone can still be used with the car dock without the sides/corners peeling off when you remove the phone.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sandiegopaneraiguy:
Well went and picked up the gun metal carbon fiber kit from the mall today for $16 and installed it. Looks great, but the sides are definitely going to come off with installing and removing it from the OEM Samsung car dock. Oh well, at least the back will be protected. I would not buy the screen protector as it is pretty much worthless and I dont like the orange peel effect that it does after awhile.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
Post pics if you can! I still think gray cf is one of the best looking ghost armor covers out there
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sandiegopaneraiguy:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Alawishis:
Question for you guys. Do the GA screen protectors have a sticky feel to them? I had a Zagg protector on my GS2 and wound up pealing it off because I hated the sticky feel to it. It hampered smooth action on the touch screen. I'd like to get a premium screen protector that is near invisible and does not alter the smooth feel of the raw screen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Cynagen:
I just recently (See: Friday) got my GA on my T989 at the mall. I got the clear coat for the back because I didn't like any of the carbon fiber skins (why when it's not real carbon fiber and does nothing to actually protect like carbon fiber?) and like my white SGS2 the way it is. Just wanted to protect it from possible accidents (as I noticed I was starting to get a little more loose with the handling of the phone). When the skin first goes on, it's tacky (sticky) as all hell, and you want to avoid handling it for about the first hour or two to let it cure a bit and solidify. Once it's started drying out (GA is a wet-apply type skin), and hardened, I can see and feel that I have the GA on there, however it's no longer sticky, so it works perfectly. In fact I would say that after the skin dries out and hardens, it actually feels smoother than just handling the phone directly. I don't like the side armor that was applied at the mall, the guy did a half-ass job of it, some of them are not center, so I feel it when I'm handling the phone. Also the back has a few micro bubbles from crap that got trapped underneath it, so I plan on making use of my lifetime warranty and going back to the mall another day to have the back and sides reapplied, but overall I'm happy with the screen. I also picked up a D3O hard-backed case for my SGS2 since I wanted to protect it further from drops. It's black edges with a white back so I maintain that nice neat white phone feel. Overall with my complete setup I'm happy, and the GA I feel is actually worth it on a phone like the SGS2. I'm holding onto this phone for a while, and I want to keep it in great shape, couldn't think of anything better than D3O and GA so I could keep using it, cause the alternative to keep it in great shape would be to not use it at all (not an option).

Anyways, get GA, get a D3O... I WILL say this, if you want to make your life just a little easier, skip the sides and back and just do the screen skin if you go into the mall, and then put the phone in a D3O, that way your screen is saved from scratches, and the rest of the phone is saved by the D3O. Wasted $15 extra getting the botched back and sides. Also, make sure they don't get careless and get adjustments right away, I totally expect to have to deal with a bunch of crap when I go back to get my GA fixed. I'll edit my post and follow up after I've stopped by the mall again on Thursday (hopefully when the same guy isn't working so I don't have to deal with him).
