I have an XO skin on my GN and love it... word of warning tough, the protector sticks to other plastic surfaces and can peel off when they separate.

How do I know??? My perfectly applied XO skin stuck to the plastic pouch I keep my phone in my jersey pocket while riding my bike and when I yanked it out it put several bubbles right in the middle of the screen. I tried to rub them out but they are there to stay. Moral of the story, keep away from other plastic surfaces and don't be a dummy like me and yank them apart of they do stick together.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kjwalker:
Odd, did you let it cure for 8+ hours? Unless it got picked off by an edge, i don't see how it could have come off. You can probably get it replaced under warranty.

After having the protector on for 5 days, the rubber feeling is definitely starting to go away (or I have gotten extremely use to it), for anyone who is curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cyberfreak95:
I just put one on my GNex yesterday and I was wondering about the rubbery feeling myself, good to know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grims:
Just installed the sgp flex..everything I loved about the xo...but without the rubbery feeling. I can't even tell this things in the phone.

Figures I got a spec of dust under the screen...that'll drive me insane.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] x0lliex:
I'm going to return my XO screen protector. Still some orange peel, although it did look great on the phone. Couldn't stand the rubbery feel and reduced responsiveness of the screen. Didn't go away after a week. Picked up the Verizon 3-pack screen protectors, loving it, not as good looking on the phone as the XO but the screen is slick as glass and it was really easy to put on the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bayank:
Just wanted to update everyone on my skin, after a few days all the spots are gone, and the rubbery feeling is less rubbery. I took a hair dryer and removed the screen protector from the otterbox defender, and so far there is no peeling on the edges. This is the first wet skin I tried and so far I like it. Visually you can't tell it's there, just very little orange skin look at certain angles. Overall I'm happy, we'll see how it holds up for the length of my contract.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] calavera-pw:
Was about to post the exact same lol. It's been more than a few days and all the bubbles are gone, it's perfectly flat and invisible. The rubbery feel has toned down as well. It's still there but it's not as bad. If you do soft swipes, it's just as easy to glide your finger as on the stock ICS. It does take some time getting used to though, it's not for everyone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stretched:
Any rubbery feeling or haziness goes away after a few days. It just has to cure all the way. These ones arent the cheap hard plastic kind, they are used on aircraft, once they cure fully they are on there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
i just wanted to post +1 to xo skins CSR.

they accidentally sent me the case fit version and sending out the regular version no questions asked!!!

btw.. the skin is awesome!!

really the best wet skin ever.

no orange peel whatsoever.

my replacement can't get here any sooner!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] helix139:
I used Zagg before on my HTC Touch Pro but switched to Ghost Armor because of the lack of orange peel and had used it on every device I have had since. Since it wasn't available for the Galaxy Nexus at launch and I've found the cost plus shipping to be a bit high on the last couple I've ordered, I went with XOSkins this time and have been very pleased with the results.

I did my usual install technique of turning on a shower to steam up the bathroom and remove the dust from the air before installing it, but I also taped off the ports, buttons, and battery case to ensure no solution got in there. Even so, I ended up with a small amount getting in my headphone jack that made the phone think I always had headphones plugged in, but it was fine in the morning after drying overnight.

I think the skin may be slightly thicker than Ghost Armor as I found it a little harder to get a perfect install. It took me a good half hour to really work all the bubbles out, whereas the Ghost Armor and Zagg films tend to go on relatively quick and easy. I also found it was noticeably harder to mar, though. Ghost Armor (and Zagg to an even greater extent) would get small ripples and imperfections even just using the rubber install squeegee if it didn't have enough solution on it (Perhaps they changed their product as they used to be a lot tougher). After a couple weeks in my pocket, the ghost armor I had put on my thunderbolt really was not looking all that great anymore. This was not the case with the XOSkin, though, and I've found it to be very tough and resistant to imperfections so far (and I actually tried to produce a few with the ghost armor rubber squeegee when I installed it, but was unsuccessful). It's not overly rubbery-feeling, and certainly superior to Zagg in terms of feel and texture, and looks fine on the phone. Bare glass is superior, no doubt, but scratched up bare glass is not.

In short, I'm happy with it and would buy again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
just a FYI for installation.

i've noticed that dunking the screen protector in a water/soap solution is the best way instead of spraying...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] meeporox:
Just my 2 cent. Got it from some UK Ebay seller.

Pro:

1. Relatively easy to apply.

2. Screen quality not affected after application. I can barely tell it is there

3. Little peel orange effect

4. Little smudge compared to other dry screen protector i have tried

5. fit perfectly for me

6. Nice packaging. Comes with spray solution and squeegee.

Cons

1. Slightly rubbery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IIIPowerIII:
Ive received mine today. Shipping was slow :P

I installed it, fit is perfect for both side and the top of the phone. At the bottom it wont fully cover the phone, maybe 2-3mm without a screen proctector. Both cutout at the top are perfectly aligned.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
The XO Skin fits so perfectly that it is hardly noticeable. The slight rubbery feel doesn't really affect day to day usage but I've been getting into Order and Chaos and after a while of playing, the screen starts to get tacky and my thumb doesn't properly slide well.

I have to take a break, log out, turn the screen off (forces a log off), clean it. I also wash my hands because it makes my thumb tacky.

I just recently got addicted so I was playing for a few hours last night. Had to stop a few times to "refresh".

I'm not sure if I'll keep it on. It looks perfect which is a huge plus, but between the slight rubbery feel and the pain to clean is starting to aggravate me. With a new phone, everyone wants to look at it. So typically I would do a pre-wipe on my jeans or shirt so it's shiny and clean, then do a post-wipe to get their dirty paw prints off it. With the XO, it almost needs a wet-wipe. Finding it next to impossible to clean the fingerprints without licking the screen (don't judge me) or a damp cloth.

It does resist finger prints, but the ones that DO accumulate are hard to remove. I don't know whats worse...

Anyone figure out a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Perilla_:
No more coupon codes?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheDave1022:
Agree with you on this. I notice maybe a slight decrease in finger prints vs without one, but they are harder to take out. I also dont like how rubbery the screen feels, although it is much better than zagg.

I hate screen protectors and went without one with my Evo for over a year and the screen is perfect. I dont know how long I will end up keeping the protector on, but in 6 months I may end up taking it off and just go bare again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dwang:
installed my xo skin last night and overall I'm pretty happy.

Previously I had the zagg skin and I hated the orange peel and rubbery feel.

The xo skin is clear and significantly less rubbery than the zagg skin. It still has a slight rubbery feel but nowhere near as bad as the zagg.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
i would compare what most people say as rubber feeling as a "squeakly clean glass" type of feel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 00taffy:
How long did your shipping take you? Mine's still with USPS since Dec 17 :confused: to Toronto, with their regular shipping option.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Something wrong. Had mine ordered after that and got it s few days later. Cheapest shipping.

LTE EX Galaxy Nexus CM9

Asus Transformer Revolver
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 00taffy:
Toronto, Canada (not Ohio) :D I figured international shipping might be a bit longer.

Good thing I got a cheapie protector on for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sn0warmy:
Well, after taking more time to read through a lot more pages of this thread, it looks like a far majority of people are extremely happy with this protector. And the images I've seen, as well as a couple Youtube videos really demonstrate how this protector does not degrade the look of the phone at all.

I just ordered a case-fit version and will provide some feedback once I receive and install it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] morpheiz:
Ordered mine on December 22 from Toronto and still haven't received either
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IIIPowerIII:
Im in Quebec, ordered mine on dec 20. it wasnt the fastest item shipped lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SNaReX:
I decided to order after reading reviews. It seems it is the best screen protector so far. Is there a working coupon code to buy it? I have just ordered my Galaxy Nexus from expansys. I want my screen protector to be ready before it comes.

EDIT: I have just found Coupon code : SPRINTXO -$4.04 off(Costs $11.98) . If there is no better coupon I will order this today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IIIPowerIII:
I emailed them about the screen didn't cover the whole screen and they're sending me a full screen replacement, they said I got one to use with a case. It didn't matter for me, I just emailed to ask if it was normal. So I'll have a free replacement, XO are awesome! :P

So far I love that screen, better than zagg, I don't really feel the rubbery feeling when using it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mondfahrer:
Hi,

I tried now three skins (Zagg Invisible Shield, SGP Ultra Oleophobic and XO).

Today I installed the XO skin and it was realy easy to bring it on BUT after 3 hours my display is full with ugly bubbles :confused::confused::confused:

I don't know where they come from because the display was nearly perfect when I used the sqeegee to push everything out.

Anyone got the same issue? I still hope that these bubbles disappear soon because this is realy annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sway40:
You really need to read previous posts bc it's been covered, they go away you have to let it settle for a few hours.

SO, how's the battery life on this?... lol

On a serious note... thanks for this ROM.. I always wanted to have a stock backup in case something gets messed up on custom ROMs..
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
Sweet! This is exactly what I've been wanting. Downloading now, will flash tonight and give feedback.

Can you give us an MD5 checksum?
[HTC Sensation] xdviper:
Carrier IQ removed?

And also, this includes the new OTA that was pushed over last week? Thanks
[HTC Sensation] cpittman:
it is the ota that was pushed over last week repackaged w/ root etc...
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
Yes this is the OTA pushed last week, and the HTC Sensation was one of the phones that didn't come with carrier IQ you can check there are apps on the market that will tell you if carrier IQ is install or present on your device. Battery life is as good as stock which i get around 20 hours with my stock battery.
[HTC Sensation] marcos600rr:
Downloading reports tomorow :) thx
[HTC Sensation] DaNnY549:
Like it!! tomorrow give a feedback..!
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
Might be a stupid question in which case I apologize but is this Sense 3.5? I didn't realise TMo sent out a full ROM update. Thought it was just that small OTA. Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
This rom is sense 3.0 and T-Mobile didn't send out a full rom update. I got my hands on the 1.50.531.1 RUU which i made a full rom from.
[HTC Sensation] j3.cole:
Which Radio and ril do you recommend (for USA) with this?

Looking forward to it !
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
I live in Michigan and I get the best data rate and signal with 10.56.9035U_10.14.9062.01_M and the RIL that goes with it.

Had to change it to wxx cause we can't post links.
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
So far, so good. Running nicely with Faux 0.2.7r. Already de-sensed though because I forgot how much I dislike Rosie launcher. :o

Attaching a stock battery % with green overscroll if anybody wants it.

/edit

Just realized, this needs init.d support.
[HTC Sensation] Six6Sicks:
Link doesn't work.

[HTC Sensation] Da Baron:
Here in South Louisiana this ROM is running nicely and smooth. I didn't add a custom kernel just running it stock so far. From my experiences this update sure does bring some definite bug fixes. Very snappy and more responsive now.

Thanks for providing this port for us...

So far this bad boy runs smooth as hell. I have been pushing its limits and not a one fc.
[HTC Sensation] Five0nIt:
Good to hear, will be loading up on the wife's phone this week. Battery life pretty solid?
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
I think the battery life is good. I was getting about 20 hours with mild use, that's with wifi, pandora, and mild text messaging. probably a total of 45 minutes of phone call use. I can confirm that you can load other kernels on this. I am using the Stock XE kernel at 1.5 Ghz just testing it for daily use before i implement it into a rom. I am working on a stock kernel for this phone but with undervolting and unlocked clocks to tweak the most out of the battery, plus there are some many options for the kernel it takes time.

Please note I will be releasing a updated version of this on Friday 12/23/2011, for what is going to be included please view First page post.
[HTC Sensation] d.cortez:
did you manually de-sense or did you use a script? if you used a user-friendly script that a non-android developer can run, i would appreciate if you could direct me to a link. Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
If someone would like to give me the de-sense script I can implement it but leave it off, but for the people that want it can just enable it.
[HTC Sensation] 30Glock:
any mirrors for this? no where on this link is there a donwload tab for free users.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
For the ROM the download link is free, its a big green button that says DOWNLOAD, everyone else seems to be able to get it. All the add-ons are free as well. Please check again.
[HTC Sensation] 30Glock:
thanks, but that button is for the ilivid d/l manager crap.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
Ill put up a mirror tonight.
[HTC Sensation] rawrfische:
I use LG's script. Just flash in recovery.

BUT. It comes with Go SMS Pro and Launcher Pro, both of which I hate, so I always extract the stock MMS app out of whatever rom I'm using and put it back into /system/app (need to change permissions after to match other apks). As for LP, I just install another launcher and remove LP with Titanium Backup. Make sure you set up your lockscreen shortcuts before you run this though, because it's annoying to change them after you run the script. Still possible, but annoying because you need to restore Rosie and one other widget to do it. Of course, reboot after any manual changes to /system/app.

Mkinney, here's one of the many scripts out there. If it looks good to you, contact LG. :)
[HTC Sensation] fmedrano1977:
Any APM or extended quick settings for this rom mn
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
+1 for this. Flashed this on my girls Sensation and its super snappy. I'm sticking with RCmix for now cuz I can't seem to leave Sense 3.5 but its a solid ROM with decent battery life as well.

APM and Extended Quick Settings would be great. The Stock Green battery percentage mod posted a couple pages back looks and works perfectly as well.

Only thing other than those mods would be Amaze Cam and Beats Audio but I can grab those zips from the corresponding threads on here. Maybe an RC Tweaks port? Just asking...keep up the great work!
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
Thanks everyone for the feedback, I looked into the power menu and will add to the build that I plan to release Friday mid_day. For the amaze cam I don't want to implement anything that doesn't have full working features, which the amaze still has problems with high res and bitrate
[HTC Sensation] fmedrano1977:
I have a both APM and Extended settings working ZIPS if you want them.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
Yes that would great, please pm me with a link if possible. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] fmedrano1977:
They are right here.

Edit: PMed
[HTC Sensation] TJD319:
Mind sharing with us? My girl misses her extended quick setting quite a bit more than I thought haha. But this ROM is great, battery life seems a bit better now after a few cycles through.

[HTC Sensation] mattdub1:
thanks for this rom mkinney, iv been waiting for this since i only like to run US roms on my phone. Runs wayyy snappier for me than 1.45 and the carousel really spins now... had one random reboot so far but that's it. what are you planning for a next release aren't you mainly keeping this stock?

Edit, nevermind I see you changed the op with future plans
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
I do plan to keep this stock. I am working on 2 versions which ill post on Friday, The stock one I am going to apply the GPS fix and add the stock battery with percentage and move apps over to the data/apps so you can uninstall the bloat. Then I am doing a super version which will have all the added mods in the OP right now.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
I would also like to implement the DSP Manager but i haven't been able to find anything, I already tried installing the apk. to the system/apps but when you make changes to the EQ nothing happens i think its has to do with HTC EQ interfering. Any information is well appreciated.

Thanks in advanced
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
What were you doing during the time you had a random reboot, I would like to look into this.

P.s I don't understand why my ROM doesn't show up under htcsensationroms.com
[HTC Sensation] Hiflyer29:
I have install the Oreo V1 ROM and find that everything works. My last ROM had the "volume unlock" which was very handy for me. Perhaps you will have an add-on for that feature later on?

thanks gonna flash this and go stock for awhile...

[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
I hope to have a flashable by tomorrow night, I see that there are some flashables out there but they seem to not display the power menu correctly so I have to decompile the .dex file in the android.policy.jar file and edit it manually that's what I had to do with for the APM and EQS so bare with me but I will get something out.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
I prefer stock only cause I seem to have no problems and the battery life is pretty good as well. :-)

This is my power menu that I provided you, flashed on this rom, displays correctly.

No the advanced power menu I was provided in this posting did not work, if you tried to flash it or replace the android.policy.jar it would not display correctly you can check, had to decompile the. Dex file with baksmail and edit and then recompile with smali and I found procedures to do this online for the HTC incredible 2 it may be your menu layout but didn't use your file as for it wouldn't work for me. Don't worry I will cite people names if I use there stuff I have no problem with that. But I will give you a thanks for the original file, that at least put me on the right track.
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:

I'm assuming since this is stock that TV out works?
[HTC Sensation] mkinney88:
I can't verify that cause I haven't used TV-OUT nor do I have the connector to try, but yes this is stock build from the 1.50.531.1 so if it worked in the previous build then it should work in this build. If you could verify and post back that would be greatly apprenticed

That .zip is not a flashable
[HTC Sensation] masondoctorjt:
Mkinney, I notice HTC Facebook for sense is not in this ROM, I can't seem to install it either.
