[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
A long time ago I couldn't get my computer to recognize my Evo, so I bought this app called Websharing or something. It uses webdav, and I've found that too be the best option for dragging and dropping files without USB. If you can find a free app that uses webdav then I'd try that out. Once you have it setup it's just like having your phone connected via USB, except transfer is a bit slower.

The app I bought hasn't been updated in over a year. There's a free version but you only get webdav with the paid version. If you can find a free app that does the same then I'd save your money.

Im confused.. This is a screenshot of my NS4G on ICS 4.0.3 and im using the simi clock widget.. my question is can anyone tell me what the (51) next to the date means? and how to get rid of it if possible?.. not really a big deal.. it just kind of bugs me thats all. Thanks
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suksit:
Not using it myself but I'm pretty sure it's the week number (considering there are 52 weeks in a year)

Try to find a setting that says "Display week number" or something like that. ;)

Ordered the Ghost Armor Carbon Fiber skin on Tuesday and it was just delivered today. I ran over to the kiosk here in my local mall and had the guy there install it since I'm all thumbs when it comes to this.

First impressions:

Carbon Fiber feels great and adds pretty much no bulk. The screen protector is great, Ive used Ghost Armor on most of my electronic screens and this one is no different from the others. Ghost Armor is a wet application, but has NO orange peel like other wet application protectors. Being day 1 there is a slight haze, but this typically goes away after a few days.

The battery cover has 1 cutout for the "Samsung" logo. I would assume this would line up perfectly assuming you have the standard battery door. I am using the extended battery and door so the cutout was slightly off. The guy at the kiosk enlarged the cutout so it appeared correct.

On to the pictures:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snidrx:
Hi! great review! But can you take more macro shots of the front screen protector with different angles? Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrotherG:
That looks pretty sweet, do they sell them directly at the kiosks or do you have to order them ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
Sure wil upload in a sec

I got mine online, the guy at the kiosk stated they have ordered them but they didn't anticipate them to be there for at least another week.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snidrx:
pretty sweet! thanks mate for posting! I'll get one as soon as I can!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jburnette87:
Looks badass. I'm a sucker for anything carbon fiber.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
Me too...such a weird manly fetish though lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LeCore:
looks great.

i loved the look and feel of my ghost armor screen protector that i had on my droid x but it did really funny things when you looked at it with polarized sunglasses on and i finally had to strip it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrotherG:
What color is that? gun metal?

FYI guys they currently have a 30% of promo right now the code is lm30
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
This is the gun metal color
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KrazyMonkey:
Thanks for the code. I'll soon see how the phone will look with black carbon fiber =D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bmorton18:
Would love some pics of the phone with the black carbon fiber on it if anyone can post.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leoaudio13:
May i ask whats your wallpaer ? it looks great and modern :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natolx:
Does this make the back of the phone less slippery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LeCore:
it looks like pixel rain live

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BoostedSR20:
I've never used anything like this on a phone, (always used a case) but I love the idea of the slim fit/no bulk. Also, this looks pretty tough.

Whats it like putting these on? PITA? Not bad?

EDIT: Just ordered one, thanks for review/pics, and also the code. Lets hope its not an epic ordeal to install.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
I think it does. I had this same carbon on my nexus s and it became better with age.

I didn't install but watching the guy it took him 5 minutes for the whole thing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pospower:
Does the pouch come with

Saw a white pouch in the photos just wondering if it's included.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msavic6:
That white pouch is an extra $5 at the kiosk I went to. They didn't have the galaxy nexus armour yet, there getting it next week.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SwiftLegend:
Is there any noticeable loss in screen quality? I just got mine yesterday, and the Verizon rep put a protector on for me but didn't tell me it was antiglare, so now the screen looks like poop.

Took it off, but I don't wanna risk scratching this beautiful screen :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
Its super and takes nothing away from the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
Came for free in the box when i ordered online. Mine came with the pouch, carbon skin, 2 screen protectors shipped for a little under $30
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deyna:
Just ordered one! The code does give you 30% off. Thank you very much and I will post when it gets here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mazenimad:
Hey, has anyone here got the white version or any other color? They have a lot of color options i cant seem to make up my mind! Any link for extra pics would also be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
I'm curious, have you tried putting your phone into a case with the Ghost Armor on it? Or a car dock? I'm not worried about it fitting in a case so much as I am about it fitting into the GN car dock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
Just tried and it fits fine in the TPU case I have just fine. Don't want to put it in to often incase it pulls on the skin when taking off.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
Hmmm... so that sounds like I may need to worry about it taking the skin off if I pop it into a car dock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
Is the fitting for the car dock tpu and grabs at the phone? It it is just plastic im sure you will be fine, my tpu case has a rubbery grab to it and with repeated in and out may pull the corners of the skin.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blacktimusprime:
Just got mine put on today... Loving the carbon fiber and overall how much smaller and lighter the phone is without the restrictive case
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Green Pancake:
Pictures please !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
Looks like cut may be off? Noticed covered Mic hole in op's pics.. :-/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pospower:
Logo fit

Got mine yesterday, love it as well and appreciate the thinness of the phone now. My back fit the logo on the extended battery door perfectly. Maybe your cut is off
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mazenimad:
Which color did you get man?? pictures pls :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BoostedSR20:
Does it help the grip like a case? My biggest reason for using a case is added grip...

Mine arrives on the 3rd, I'll post pics. (got black CF)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lembowski:
Cut not off install was off. I took a razor blade and cut the mic hole out after the pics were taken.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BoostedSR20:
Mine arrived today. Came with the spiffy white bag too. I'll post pics when I get it on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BoostedSR20:
Ok, install wasn't a nightmare, but I'm fairly anal so I'm in no hurry to do this again anytime soon. Thanks to the OP for his pics, I used them as a reference. ;)

Also, glad I read ALL of the instructions. The website and the included cardboard sheet both explain the WET install for the normal ghost armor, but the carbon armor is a DRY install. I did it all dry, no water. (did however use water for the screen film) There is an included printed sheet explaining the dry install for carbon armor.

I like it. Adds just enough grip, but no bulk. Looks bad ass. Wasn't *too* terrible to install. (I'm about 90% happy with my results)

Ive NEVER used a screen protector before, hate em for the way they look and feel. Decided to try this one, since you guys liked it. How long does it take for the water/haze to go away? My screen is almost impossible to look at right now...

Anyway, here are my pics:

Thanks again to the OP, or I woulda never thought to try anything like this. :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bmorton18:
Thanks for the pictures. Was thinking about getting this but wanted to see the black carbon fiber first. I love how it looks and even though I just got a Rearth case I might go get this installed soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Erickomen27:
I Bought This For My Nexus S, Like A Month Ago And Then I Switched To The Galaxy Nexus Lol

It's Really Nice, But Personally I'd Only Use The Screen Protector On My Galaxy Nexus, The Only Reason I Got The Full Body Is Because It Covered Up My Backing Which Looked Ugly :(

If Anyone Is Wondering The Screen Protector Has A Slight Orange Peel Effect But It's Nothing Like The Invisible Shield, It's A Lot Better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Phazenine-:
Great product I grabbed the gun metal colorway. Reviews say it's the best skin on the market so that plus how great it makes my Nexus look was enough for me + the lifetime warranty
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SirLance99:
Carbon Fiber Red

Here is mine. I just got this last night. I immediately installed it. I've done these before so it's pretty easy for me.

The trick is to just get the skin into place. Don't worry about it sticking all the way at first. When you have all the pieces in the exact place you want. Get a hair dryer and put the heat on it. Heating it up helps the skin form around and to the device.

I'm extremely pleased with this and the color. I had the Best Skins Ever clear body skin on it and did not like it all that much. I felt the corners to must and it just didn't feel right. THIS feels GREAT. Very smooth except for the actual carbon fiber texture.

I HIGHLY recommend this skin.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jerk82:
The red looks good. Mine should be in today.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] plasticmoz:
I used the Skinomi product but only on the back cover - dry install + hair dryer (pretty safe since you can do the cover while off the phone). Solved my desire to remove all branding from the phone without having to scratch off anything and looks and feels great.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dtraini7:
i noticed that the phone without any cover on it is kinda slippery, does this cover fix that? if so, i am totally getting one!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Joediver53:
How did you come to under $30 for two using GA4LIFE? I get $47.98 with free shipping for two.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natolx:
Yeah that's what I paid. I meant the code did nothing for one since you had to pay shipping
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ifse:
Does the standard set work with the extended battery cover, or did you order a different set? I see only one option shown on the web page.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BoostedSR20:
Yeah it adds decent grip.

So after a week, I'm still very happy. Its still in perfect condition.

Only problem I had, the screen protector never dried. I took it off after 2 days. It looked like garbage. Not sure what I did wrong putting it on....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] majikdragoon:
Are these available in the UK? I know you can import them from the company direct, but the shipping charges are putting me off :-(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] acr89:
I had a few square feet of 3M Di-Noc matte carbon fiber wrap laying around so I just wrapped my GNex with that. I did the back as well as the corners so as to prevent scratches. Don't have any pics ATM but it looks about the same as the Skinomi, and the 3M stuff is the best around.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] corban227:
Here are some shots of my phone wit hthe Black carbon fiber skin and the screen protector from Ghost Armor. This was installed by someone working at the kiosk in my local mall. My phone has the extended battery and the extended battery back plate. For those of you who would liek to know, these shots were taken with a 60mm macro lens on my bed with the sheets stripped which gives it that white box look.

TOP OF THE PHONE

This is the screen protector 1 day after installation. As you can see it has lines that run down the phones length. I cannot feel these under my finger, nor are then noticed when I am using my phone. The only time i see them is when i hold my phone just right in the light and look for them.

Some quick comments on the screen protector: I like it better than Zagg's invisible shield because it feels smoother and my finger doesn't stick to it as much. Response is just as good as iff you were touching glass. I have tested it by just barely resting my finger on the phone and moving it and the phone still responds. Its not glass but its da*n close. I can feel my finger resist sliding around slightly more than when its just the glass but it has improved since the protector was first installed so i'm hoping in a couple of days that disappears completely.

BOTTOM OF THE PHONE (or back)

I love the look of carbon fiber. This skin is very thin and does not increase the size of the phone. I am still able to put it in a case when I go out to do physical activity and then remove it when I come back. The section that covers the back plate is not quite perfect but i believe that is due to the extended battery. Nothing is obstructed on the phone.

CLOSE UP

As you can see the screen protector is very thin.

The skin is nice and flat around edges corners and curves

This shows you how thin the skin is

Even though I have the extended battery, the skin still fits nicely around the camera in the back

Final thoughts:

I really do like the skin and the screen protector although I would not have installed it my self. I always go to kiosks because the workers there install tons of skins and protectors every day. Also for warranty the worker took down my info and said that if I ever need anything fixed I just have to go in to the kiosk with the old material and phone and they will re install and replace whatever I need for a 5 dollar service fee. I don't need a receipt since they stored my purchase info on a computer.

I can post high res pics if anyone wants to see them

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ifse:
Very nice. I have the same Ghost Armor on the front, and I see the same faint lines you observed. Not very noticeable unless I hold at a certain angle, but it feels smooth. I am still waiting for an extended battery before doing the back.

At the kiosk, did they offer you an option for the extended battery? The guy at my mall said he can special order it, but I saw no mention on their web site. It's one size fits all, whether standard or extended battery.

Is the carbon skin black or gray (gun metal)? I am leaning toward gray based on pictures.

well spit it out then...or provide a link to the products or threads where they're discussed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
How do you guys feel about Skinomi vs. Ghost Armour? I was checking out the Skinomi carbon fiber skin... I really like that the back skin completely covers the battery cover; the only thing I wasn't crazy about with the GA is the cutout around "Samsung".

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dpp_04:
nice review. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djras111:
xgearlive's skin leaves the entire bottom corners unprotected (big gap between pieces) and their image (2nd on screen with aluminum finish) shows a wrinkle where they try to wrap around the corner.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
Those bottom corners are where most people are going to get dings too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] frank21cn:
is your phone with battery cover?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
The bottom corners are very difficult due to the curves, even Ghost Armor doesn't cover this.

Read above.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] djras111:
The 1st page of this thread shows the Ghost Armor DOES curve mostly around the corner. The very tip of back to sides corner is exposed, but not the entire curve as the other barnd. There is a much smaller gap.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmoradi2002:
Not only do they not cover it by much, but they also leave a lot of the bottom edge exposed.

Either way the fact that it's not 3M is a no-brainer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deaffob:
You make it sounds like 3M is some special stuff. 3M is the name of a company and anyone can use what they use on their PostIt because the patent they had is no longer exclusive to them. This happened many years ago. 3M doesn't mean much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] guyhoang:
Are you sure about that? I got mine yesterday and it said 3M on the back...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrmorphine:
I went over to their local kiosk and had mine installed today, thanks to the positive feedback in this thread.

The carbon fiber looks great. Really like it. The screen protector is a bit hazy as others have mentioned but it has only been 2 hours since application.

Mine does not have any cutout though for the Samsung logo.

I have the HSPA+ GNex from Bell Canada, with the official extended battery and cover, and it fits perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RLothar:
Just ordered with the 30% off promo. Thanks a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pilayo:
For me is Crap.....

Samsung logo do not match in my 16gb gsm

The side carbón sticker do not cover enought

The little haze in the protector remains even a few days later

After 2 days since the installation only the carbón sticker on the battery cover remains....

For me waste of money
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natolx:
Mine looks great, the hair-dryer trick was KEY. Thanks for that.

Anyway, I like the look but the fact that I can feel the edges of the film when I hold the phone makes it feel a little cheap(although the phone was plastic anyway so not as big a difference as it would be from metal)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AuxiliaryPie:
it clearly says its made for CDMA...NOT GSM

and that other site that sells "legit" american 3M covers all look like complete butt crack...no offence
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
Just ordered the black ghost armor with the 30% discount code. That kind of sucks that the discount code brings it under the price that gives you free shipping... I went ahead and added a second screen protector to bring the price back up (plus I get a second screen protector).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rye&ginger:
In a a year of using a Captivate, the corners are what took a beating. Seems like this area is not protected much?

Hard shell may be the way to go or soft case if this is a concern for you also.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aesthetics45:
Just got mine installed at the mall. looks cool, and its not as slippery. its a pretty penny but it beats the vzw cases. so far so good
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diablonyc2:
My GA does not have the cutout as well. Wierd....Wish they would have been more consistant.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natolx:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hotleadsingerguy:
First of all it's mostly covering your microphone hole.

Secondly, I don't like the look of it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natolx:
That is a pretty glaring installation error. I installed mine and it didn't cover up my mic hole at all
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Benji1983:

i need this one too ahhhh :-)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bleach168:
My quick review,

Pros-

Adds zero bulk

Nexus isn't as slippery

protects against scratches

Cons-

Doesn't cover the corners well

Doesn't feel good in hand

It shouldn't be called "armor" It's more like a t-shirt.

I don't recommend it, but I don't discourage anyone from buying it either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natolx:
I've actually found that it starts to feel better in the hand after awhile. That edge of the sticker feeling starts to go away gradually
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
Just got my black carbon fiber Ghost Armour. I'll post some pics once I get it put on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
Just finished my install. Sorry about the quality of the pics - I had to use my crappy 3mp Blackberry camera.

Couple of things:

1. The install was not too difficult. I am a bit anal retentive, so I took my time applying the stickers and adjusted them a good bit.

2. The stickers have a tendency to deform a bit if you put one on and then take it off to adjust it. The side stickers in particular got a tiny bit longer as a result - which I actually like.

3. I had to use an X-acto knife to open up the hole a bit for the 3 pin connector, probably due to #2.

4. After applying the stickers, my phone felt like it was covered in stickers... which is was. Burnishing down the edges of the stickers with my thumbnail helped greatly. This also helps with the corners if they get a bit crinkly (I think you can see this in one of my pics - I was able to fix this).

Really not a bad install at all. The screen is a bit foggy, but I just installed the screen protector - should go away soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Natolx:
did you use a hair dryer? I have NO crinkling on the corners when I hair dryered on high before pressing down the corners all the way
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xblade96:
The screen protector on this. Is it the same material as Zagg? Like that kind of screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IntenseImage:
Got mine today ... installed the full kit but really didn't like the other pieces. If I had gotten the black CF, maybe ... but I'm OK with that since I really only bought it for this:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
Nah, no hair dryer. I'll be honest, I went looking for the hair dryer and couldn't find it, and I got impatient. LOL. But I was able to take care of the little bit of crinkling that happened just by smoothing it down.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mkarps:
I just applied the black. I love the look however holding it almost feels scratchy...like I can feel the edge of the sticker. Anyone else notice this? Maybe I'll just get used to it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kimboinatl:
The edge on one of the stickers on mine has a tear and is peeling a bit. The "sticker" feel (feeling the edges, like mkarps mentioned above) hasn't gone away. The screen protector seems to be getting a lot of "dents" in it... not scratches per say, but you can see marks on it. I haven't dropped my phone since I put the Ghost Armor on it... I'm not sure where all of this is coming from.
