Just on balance: Phone manufacturers (lots of them) have gone with this 2.5D curvature and obviously it's a tough thing to make the perfect fitting cover out of glass, so none of them are going to be perfect. What's the obsession anyway? It's just a protective cover. I've had the Orzley for a few weeks and it works great. Since mostly people with bad experiences are posting in forums (go on and check out any thread and see how many threads are saying "this works fine!"), you can't tell much from this thread except to only stack up bad experiences. It sure doesn't attract dust or prints.

Here's my experience: I applied it using the "steamed up bathroom to settle dust" technique, it took maybe 45 seconds to apply, went on perfectly. It is designed not to overlap any case, and only to "meet" the visible part of the screen. Yes it's close, but not as bad as the OP one. I've never heard a tap from the glass protector. I've never seen a color or rainbow on it, nor any dust underneath. The edges are sticky after 2 weeks. If you think about it, no adhesive that is removable is ever going to be able to hold down a piece of cut tempered glass in a way that doesn't create at least a bubble somewhere, not that it's a big deal. I don't think I've thought about the screen protector once until I read this thread after I applied it.

For some of us, the Orzly works fine. I'm going to take a wild swing and guess that I'm not the only person that this SP works for. I've used it with two cases and it works perfectly with both of them. One is a bumper like case from OP https://oneplus.net/oneplus-5-silicone-protective-case, and the other was one I got for nothing with the OP (A folio case?) . I'm fairly sure the Orzly will work with any case because it doesn't extend over the edges.

If you are one to believe every bad review will be your experience then just stay with the factory applied plastic. It works fine but you'll likely have to clean it pretty often since the fingerprint attraction is high. Other than that, it's fine. It might not help you if you drop it as well.

Iqshield. Good coverage, smooth feeling. I like their products
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Dinjesk:
Would you mind showing some pics?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] adrman:
Sure. Apologies though, they're not the best quality. The phone is straight from my pocket, uncleaned, taken via my friend's iphone.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Dinjesk:
Thx man,

Looks like covering whole screen inc with a case/bumper.

I ordered also
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] dasti555:
I just received Nilkin Tempered Glass and that so much smaller than actuall display :/
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] jvidia:
That's why I think glass screen protectors on rounded screens looks silly and makes any phone ugly!

Even the official from OP looks stupid .... having to apply a second front on the phone??? looks horrible.

Makes the phone looking like a cheap Chinese rip off :laugh:

Because I don't like to use it naked, I prefer plastic/film protectors.

I only wish that screens would go back to be 100% flat for this not to happen!

Unfortunately, the screen protectors brands are all making glass protectors and forgetting the plastic/film ones that go much more to the edges and passes much more unnoticed after applied.

Anyone knows a good plastic/film protector for the OP5 ?

Just found the "OnePlus 5 Invisible Film Screen Protector" from Ultimate Shield.

Looks good, even better than the one that comes with OP5, because it also protects all around the home button.

Anyone has it?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] LeKeiser:
I just ordered it. I have the Orzly one installed but I'm not very happy with it since I have the oil stain right in the middle of my screen, stain that you can see only under special light. It's better than no protection though.

The Ultimate shied one looks kindda nice. As long as it avoids the scratchs. Because I don't think that a glass protection will really save my display in case of a fall.

What do you think?

Btw thanx for the tip (Ultimate Shied)
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] adrman:
Skinomi. Just look up a few posts. That's the matte version, but their clear is equally good.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] jvidia:
It looks really good.

I've always used plastic screen protectors and for me they are great.

Easy to apply and more stealth than the glass ones.

It's purpose is to protect against scratches and not falls.

For falls I use a good case ;)

I'm going to use the OP Karbon bumper case.

---------- Post added at 11:29 ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 ----------

Better than the one from Ultimate Shield?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] adrman:
I've no idea, but it's working well enough for me. ;)
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] jvidia:
Are you talking about the "Skinomi TechSkin™ for OnePlus 5" ?

Do they sell in Europe? Ultimate Shield is nice because they ship it free from UK to Europe!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] LeKeiser:
I have the Karbon Bumber case and it's clearly the best case around. I also have the Beyeahone (it has many names though, it's this one: https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B06Y5DMD7Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) way cheaper but really really good case also, the quality is remarkable.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] jvidia:
That case looks like the Spigen ones.

I don't like that open hole in the back like the cases for iPhones.

I'm going to use the Karbon Bumper from OP. Gives more protection.

If the factory screen protector of my incoming OP5 is OK I'll leave it on.

If it starts to peel off or arrives placed off center, I'll get the Ultimate Shield one.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] adrman:
Yes, the pics I posted previously in this thread are of their MatteSkin product. The TechSkin is the same, but clear. I've used it on other curved screens (Nexus 6) and it's been excellent as well. I'm unsure on their shipping policies to Europe though.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] 3DSammy:
The OP5 factory protector is cheap and scratched easily. In the past I'd always only used film protectors preferring Tech Armour and they rarely scratched unlike the OP applied one. With a new device I'd never go through a 3 pack. Right now I've applied the Orzly tempered glass protector and am happy with it over the last few days.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] jvidia:
That is one doubt I have ... about the quality of the factory screen protectors that come in the Oneplus phones.

Do you advice to replace it even if not going to a glass protector?

Will the touch sensitivity improve after changing to a plastic protector from a good brand?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] 3DSammy:
As far as replacing the factory cover is concerned, is your op5 cover scratched? Mine had small scratches that I could only notice with a close inspection. If yours is already showing scratches then does that bother you?

I'm answering your questions like this because at the time of this reply there is not a unanimous accepted tempered glass OP5 protector. Orzly, currently seems to be the best but some people have major issues (rainbow effect and coming loose), but for me its been perfect. There also is a very limited number of film/plastic covers, so if what you have doesn't bother you than stand pat until there is more choice and some consensus as too what works on the OP5's 2.5D screen.

As far as screen sensitivity, I've never had issues with either plastic protectors and now with my first tempered glass protector. Certainly the tempered glass feels more slippery due to that special top coating but plastic never bothered me either.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] purple lady:
I'm looking for a matte screen protector too, but the Skinomi is wet apply and I hate the orange peel effect. How bad is the orange peel on this one?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] adrman:
Well, in the month I've had it on the phone, there's none. I do use a case with a protective lip though, so it doesn't ever catch when taking it in and out of my pocket.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] purple lady:
Thanks! I guess I'll try it then. I got the OP Protective Case Karbon and it doesn't have a lip all around though, so I am going to try to find a thin and light tpu case.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] adrman:
I got the wood grain protective case with the phone and didn't like it much. I'm currently alternating between the OP red silicon and the carbon bumper. Both are great, but the red case doesn't have any protection along the bottom of the phone. I haven't had any problems with the Skinomi there though.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] spawn549:
non branded

Full coverage. full static suction. edge to edge. no rainbow after effect. no dust trap at the sides after effect.

http://www.revelion.sg/item/ONEPLUS...-PLUS-3-3T-CASE-CASING-COVER-SCREEN/413458980

look for the 4d:confused:
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Cidious:
it cuts off 1mm of the screen on both sides. It's rubbish.

Why are all these screen protectors so super flawed.. I don't get it.. The original oneplus glass protector is perfect if it didn't cover up the sides of the screen. Why the dumb donkeys designed it this way...
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] djsubterrain:
The official screen protector does cover some of the screen, it's been widely stated that it does, it's been shown in YouTube reviews that it does. If you go into the bootloader menu each side is covered.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] atistang:
It looks like they did that for 2 reasons.

One is because the screen curves and I'm sure its extremely difficult to manufacture a screen protector to fit that perfectly.

Two, for case users. I've had protectors in the past that were great until you put a case on, then the case started to lift the protector.

IDK if this is really why, but that's my speculation
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Wredal:
Finally found good and cheap ($4.75) screen protector. Pros - edge to edge, doesn't get into screen estate and no rainbow effect. Cons - from China so there is a few weeks waiting time:

http://s.aliexpress.com/UrIZjQba

Still I am really happy with it.

[OnePlus 5 Accessories] tristaoeast:
Hi, are you still happy with this purchase? How has it performaed? Also, have you used with any cas on your OP5? I have the offical Carbon Case from OP and was wondering if this would perform well...
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Wredal:
It was doing great, the only cons was that it has very thin edges and even a small hit on the edge of protector was enough to shatter it or create a small gap. As the price was low, I purchased a few of them and used three in 4 months.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] PAMattey:
does it have adhesive on the glass too? or just the borders?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] igoorsoouza:
Guys, I've just bought a normal tempered glass protector from Gearbest, those ones that leave halo effect on the sides and was quite disappointed (don't know what i was expecting btw) but after researching on Aliexpress for a new one to replace it

I have made (what I consider for myself) a huge discovery.

I noticed that some sellers started selling this kind of SP with a little package of oil to get rid of the halo effect on the sides, and with that I went to google to know what oil it is and for my surprise, just simple olive oil will do the job ( couldn't find what type of oil they use)! I even found videos on Youtube about it ( How to get rid of halo effect). I tried with my SP from Gearbest ( ENKAY / Hat Prince, still couldn't recommend since it isn't really 2.5D on the cornes ) and it worked wonderfully! Now i have a OK glass screen protector that covers pretty much 98% of my screen and I have no halo effect thanks to 1-2 ml of oil, I'm thrilled! This should work with any SP that have this problem. Hope this will be of some help to anyone!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] VILLAformer:
I bought that and it's perfect!!! Thanks
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] strongst:
Since I've tested some of the tg screen protectors and realized that they are all made the same bad quality(rainbow effect, dot matrix, dust between screen and protector, adhesive only on the edges) but there are no tg screen protectors that fit without adhesive(only by suction) i tested a soft screen protector, the Skinomi TechSkin.

It fits very good thanks to wet application and no side effects. Only downside is that after 2 days of usage there are some micro scratches...

Someon knows other soft screen protectors that are cheaper then Skinomi and equal or better?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] TheSnak:
Hi guys ! Someone tried rhinoshield screen + cover ? With both, you also protect edge no ? Thanks !
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] aritrab:
hows the official one ?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] NorthernLight_:
Thank you for this tip! Great glass

Ps. Now it started getting rainbow effect...
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Keith Rocha:
I've ordered this as well... Are u using it along with a case n after how many days have you started to get the rainbow effect ??

Hope theres no dot matrix though ..!!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] NorthernLight_:
Yup i use it with a silicon case, not uplifting of the glass or something.

I got the rainbow effect straight from when i had the phone in my pocket for a while and then took it out. Maybe 2 hours.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] flobengogen:
Ive used and tested with about 4-5 different brands of tempered glass screen protectors. IMO Orzly is the best for its price (considering you buy the 2 pack). Other brands that mimics the side black bezels has really poor adhesive. Ive had instances where the smallest drop or placing your phone down too hard will cause the adhesive to fail and the entire protector will just pop off from the impact. The other clear ones just arent worth it. They may says its 2.5D and follow the curve of the display but it never does. You will always get that annoying air bubble looking thing around the entire edge of the screen, then dirt particles will get under and slide deeper into the middle of the screen driving you insane.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Keith Rocha:
The rainbow issue is visible only when the screen is turned off ..right..?? when the screen is lit .. it doesnt cause an issue.

Im fine with it..!!

However case compatibility is important to me ??
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] NorthernLight_:
Yepp its not soo easily visible when turned on except on bright pages..

I use a simple silicon one but i guess my spigen neo hybrid would pop it off!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Keith Rocha:
Thanks for the heads-up ... Will have to buy a cheap simple silicon case i guess then... Since i have a tight lipped case currently ?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] NorthernLight_:
When you are not bothered by the rainbow effect this one is for you. Its the only imperfection for me ;)
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Renegade661:
Looks like it's not being sold anymore :-/

Can anyone confirm this ?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] mutation.x:
Apparently Amazon has a seller selling a curved glass screen protector which I've ordered and applied to my OnePlus 5. Turns out its the best tempered glass I've used so far. And I say this after going through about 20 tg protectors and scratch guards and whatnot. The only downside here is that the side bezels are a little thicker than the original curved glass. But this tempered glass is almost half the price of the original glass. Give it a check. It shouldn't disappoint. The product name is Cassiey 4D Curved Glass Screen Protector Full Coverage for OnePlus 5.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] xDark_:
Adhesive on the viewable glass area?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] mutation.x:
Yes. Not just that but no dot matrix either. Proper glass. It's very sturdy too.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] xDark_:
Nice. How much is it? $5?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] mutation.x:
It's not for five dollars. You can't get anything great at the price. It's 10$ with free shipping but still half the price of the original tg protector
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] xDark_:
Jesus Christ that's highway robbery. I think I'll just go with AliExpress, I've found one that claims to be full glass and adhesive for $4. I'll let you know how that goes.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] mutation.x:
Sure. Here in India, the original screen tempered glass protector is available for about 20$. Having gone through three of these by now, seeing something for about 10$ was sorta cheap
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] xDark_:
I know, but to be honest, they're all just marked up generic brands. $4, I can just skip my morning coffee. $10 would mean I have to skip my lunch, so I'm always trying to find the source these Amazon brands get all their stuff from lol. And the OnePlus protector is just a rip-off.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Keith Rocha:
Received the tg today.. applied it ... & Finally satisfied ☺️

Worth the price & the wait to get it delivered ..!!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] carlese:
Guys anyone tried the ultimateshield tempered glass? It clais to be fully adhesive.. Any other good option with full adhesive so no rainbow effect will show? I live in Italy, I can buy from aliexpress or amazon.it so most of the options you post are not available here..
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] raj102:
Which back cover can we use? I am currently using full glass cover but when I put back cover it's get air inside.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Tiago A:
Ive been using without screen protector for 3 months. No scratches at now. Really impresive with front glass resistence.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Javi22:
Any plastic thin protector which does not get dirty easily? I have never used protector, but I am sick of the greasy/oily screen and I wonder If some protector will help
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] flameprinc3ss:
i ordered this recently and it's the best one i've come across. there's a very slight dot matrix, you can't tell unless the screen is off. it handles fingerprint smudges a lot better than the official one. i do notice a small rainbow effect /sometimes/, when the screen is off, but nothing too bad.

my only complaint is it isn't very case-friendly, i'm using a wallet case where the actual phone-holder is a silicone, wrap-around-the-phone kinda thing, so they kinda overlap a little. it messes with my keyboard area the most. so i'll be using the carbon case that came with the phone for a little, might try to find a wallet case with a hard shell.

besides my personal issues, i think it's a great screen protector so far. i'll try to update in a few months with how it's held up.

edit: lmao okay so in a freak situation that never happens to me, my phone basically flung onto some concrete. protector did its job but perished in the line of duty. SO, i really didn't feel like waiting for another aliexpress one, so i got this one from amazon. it's really bad, don't get it. idk what to do now. why can't this phone have anything good.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] Keith Rocha:
Hey is your tempered glass holding on??... 2 months done & the glue on my glass has weakened ?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] NorthernLight_:
Yeah it happened to me too.. No perfect glass out there. Ordered a bunch off gearbest and stick to using them all clear ones even with a little air under the borders its ok for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TheUprising:
Hello everyone. I decided to turn on the Immersive Mode on my Galaxy S8+ but every time there is a drop-down option for any app, the drop-down list opens and then immediately closes. I can confirm this is the Immersive mode issue because when I turned it off in ADB, the drop-down options worked perfectly. Is there any way to fix this glitch?

Thanks,

[Huawei Mate S] Ta3miyyasandwich:
Hi, I've read all threads on the Mate S and other Huawei device forums and I've attempted the following to no avail

1 - Traditional method (SN and IMEI mismatch - Chinese and Eng wesbites)

2 - Huawei Product Generator method (HUAWEI Y300-0000 and HUAWEI Y300-0100)

My device has Chinese info on the back - (UL00) but for some reason the software is L09-C900, and I updated it to Marshmallow B390, the bootloader only says locked in green and not FRP unlocked, fastboot commands don't work (FAILED)

Any help?! :eek:
[Xperia Z3v General] Rhalium:
Hello.

My old the phone the galaxy s4 verizon, i dropped it and it cracked screen and screen wont work. so i went away from Samsung to Sony for the first time. and now i have the xperia z3v.

when i pull down quick settings to turn on and off mobile data as well as location, when i turn off the mobile data there's a pop up box that says are you sure you want to turn off mobile data and there's also a box for location that asks you to agree if you want to turn on location data.

I want to know how to disable these pop up boxes so that i dont waste time clicking yes or no. also i play pokemon go so I would want to know how to do this without rooting. as i understand niantic has blocked rooted devices from playing pokemon go.

as i came from the galaxy s4 im used to hitting agree every time i turn on location data but not for mobile data.

also i was wondering about getting back the settings button, as the galaxy s4 had that, but now the xperia z3v just has the recent apps button.
[Xperia Z3v General] GigaSPX:
The pop-up is a Verizon software thing. I upgraded to the S7 Edge and it had that same pop up to until I installed the unlocked firmware, which it never pops up anymore.

The Recents key has always been the Recents menu since the beginning of Android. The S4 may have had special remapping because it uses capacitative keys, but the menu can be easily accessed from the drop down menu up top.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace 4] Finer0PL:
Hello everybody.

Ive got a problem. Yesterday my phone fell down on hard floor. In result - screen doesnt work. Its broken and all black. It shows nothing. But phone is working fine. I hear phone cell or any other notification.

I need to recover my data like contacts, apps,photos or sms messages. I was stupid and i save it only on my phone. There is no copy on my google account.

There is also other problem - i have locked screen by code which i know but i cant type it :/

What can i do now? Finally ill change screen if ill do nothing.

Thank you very much and sorry for my English :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SMGJohn:
As Windows 10 Mobile is just getting worse and worse by every update Microsoft churns out at a rapid speed I been forced to go back to Android.

So I had the idea, why are there no roms that look and feel like Windows 10 Mobile??

Currently there are a dozen of Launchers that tries to replicate the look of Windows Phone 8.1 and/or 10 Mobile interface but with horrible results, most of them being buggy, unusable and most of them not even remotely look like the interface on Windows Mobile at all.

What I am asking then, is it possible to make such a ROM? Or does one such thing exist? If you have a launcher that really can replicate that feel and user experience then of course that would be preferable.

And WP8 Launcher is terrible, the fact that they displays ads everywhere even though you already paid for it twice does not even make it any better.
