I think there is only tax by default in 2 states. I remember seeing CA and can't remember the other one.

Did we collect tax on your order? We will be glad to do a partial refund if we need of the tax amount :) let us know your order number and we can check on it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] sc954rr:
Nah I was just curious for others. You didn't collect tax from me. It was product cost and shipping cost.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] whiteangelcl:
Haha. Till now I have not noticed any tax in my invoice but just to be fair, we will definately refund the tax amount if there is anyone that accidently prepaid tax. :)

Thanks for asking

My first installation went smoothly. It's a little exciting to do it actually. I have two recommendations to add here. First, practice with water/distilled water before using loca. Second, cut out a small adhesive TPU or sticky tape to close the upper and lower speaker ports to prevent loca getting in. The upper speaker grill is quite fragile and you can damage it if you try to clean excess loca there afterward. As a matter of fact, whitedome provides small pieces of tape for this purpose. Wish that sgfreshidea doesn't skip out on this.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
How do you mean the speaker grill is fragile? It's made of metal. I've scraped it with a needle to get dust & glue out of it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] MrPenguins:
Is anyone using this with a rhinoshield?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] whiteangelcl:
If anyone has used it with any cases, could you all list the cases used here do I can compile it up? Hehe thanks all
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
I'm using this case.

https://m.ebay.com.au/itm/Gentlemen...or-Google-Pixel-2-XL/322817033722?_mwBanner=1

I have about 1mm gap around the protector. Squeeze works fine. Good match.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] whiteangelcl:
We actually looked into the idea of providing the tape but if you take a look at our tempered glass cutting, we are unable to cover the full speaker grill without hitting the glass.

The allowance is extremely small.

Anyone has any ideas on this? We can seriously consider it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] blueescalade88:
Has anyone installed this and the whitestone, and can give a comparison? Price aside, this one appears to cover more screen?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Incredible_Culp:
Now THIS is good business. Bravo :highfive:

Adapting to your customers but still turning over a profit AND still competing with your competitors.. Its definitely a win win - Always love protectors that have at least 2 in the package (like inexpensive tempered glass like XtremeGuard I can order 4 of them and still be under $10 (with their 90% discounts)

It gives us piece of mind -- so if the glass breaks, or if we dont apply the loca route correctly, we have a back up.. We learn from the first one, and perfect it the 2nd time around.

We're humans, we make mistakes. So this is great news and definitely a great step forward for your business

2 glass, and 2 locas being aorund $47 (with this discount)-- almost a no brainer if you wanna go loca based.. whitestone doesnt cover as much as this one, and you get the piece of mind having 2 pieces of glass...

Once i get the code, i can justify the price now and go ahead and order my set :silly:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] whiteangelcl:
Thank you for the support. I think I replied you via email but thought I also include what I said here.

Our product is NOT perfect which is why we believe in constant interactions with the end users who are the most important.

We hope to be able to learn and grow with everyone on our final delivery of the product.

Of course business wise, not everything may be able to be done. Perhaps due to scale, quantity limitations or cost but we believe in exploring and also innovation.

If a Jig is too costly and jacks up the final price to the consumer top much, then we come up with ways to do without the jig but still get the job done well.

We thank everyone for their continuous support and hope to be able to give everyone a much better product in the near future.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] evanwier:
I am just waiting on the shipping discount email reply and I am ready to order!

Annnnddddd Ordered, got a spare protector and spare LOCA (3 total) that way if i smash this protector up I should have extra loca and protector in the future ready to go.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
Just stick bluetac in the grills & pull it out when cured.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] jonstrong:
Interesting idea. With a little patience you should be able to mold it to shape to fit snugly to the inside of the opening, but not overlap on the surface. Did you (or anyone else?) try this?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
I didn't, but I read in another thread, or maybe this one, that someone did.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] jonstrong:
I like the idea. Expecting an InvisShield soon (shipped out of Singapore 10 days ago). Think I ought to try this.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Play!Ya:
Can anyone confirm if this TGSP works with Spigen cases like Rugged Armor and Liquid Crystal? Thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
Have you tried any other glass protectors with that case? This protector is the same size as the amFilm/MaxShield, etc.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Play!Ya:
Hi, thanks for reply. I haven't tried any glass protectors yet. I have a generic film protector on with wet application. I just wanted to know if anyone encountered issues with these cases.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
Looking at this picture of the rugged armour I would say it's about identical in edge clearance to the case I'm using, which works fine.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Play!Ya:
Thanks! It feels like it might be a bit troublesome with Spigen cases. I wait for some more user pics.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] JBeXX:
I have the rugged armor and the tough armor spigen cases. They both perfectly fine with the Invisibleshield.

Unfortunately I don't have another camera for pictures.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] chriskwarren:
I have the Rugged Armor (my fav for the Pixel 2XL so far), Neo Hybrid, Google Fabric case, as well as a thin hard plastic shell I got on Amazon here: http://a.co/aipER1E

I have decided to give this protector a try once I get a shipping discount code. I suspect that it will take a long time to get to Canada though.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] drewlim:
Do you guys apply the solution for the oleophobic coating? Im getting mine delivered today and I think I red a few pages back that the solution makes the glass a little hazy? I wanted to ask this before I install mine later.

Another question is how did you guys protect the speaker grills before applying? Did you get any problems from excess loca getting on the speakers?

Thanks guys.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
I got loca in my top speaker. I just wiped it out while wet. Then once cured, pick at it with a pin & scrub out gently with an old toothbrush. If you're gentle you won't hurt the speaker grill. It's made of metal.

As far as the oleophobic coating. I found it was like a waxy hazy stuff that wiped on. Took some polishing to get it clear & smooth. Just test the glass before applying it & see if you're happy with it. It's definitely not like the liquid nano coatings you can buy online.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] sc954rr:
I got some loca in speakers but like stumpy said get what you can when wet, and just use a pin to pick at it with toothbrush. As for the nano coating it definitely left the glass hazy/streaky, it took me little bit of cleaning to get it smooth and clear but it definitely helps the glass stay clean.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] arcticnights:
Hey guys, does anyone know if the Invisshield would work with the supcase unicorn beetle clear case for the pixel 2xl?

Do we get our tracking numbers automatically? I placed my order last week (#1000000349) and hadn't got a tracking number yet.

Cheers
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] knightsh:
Yep, I was #xxx298. Ordered on 1/18, got email confirmation, then today got DHL email. It contains tracking info.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] whiteangelcl:
Hi there. As DHL comes and collect the items and process it at their sorting facility, we will have to wait for them to provide the tracking number to us once they send the item out. This is also the first time we are working with them so we will have to moniter their speed too.

Sorry if there are any delays
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] whiteangelcl:
We update it in 2 places. One is our website and what we heard from DHL as we put the customer email too they will also send out an email of the tracking number
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Nichie:
Do you all have a physical shop in SG that provides installation as well? Saw some reviews on your website that seems to indicate it
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] thacounty:
My $.02:

I got the Invisshield from SGFresh last week. I was excited to try this out, as I have never used a LOCA screen protector before.

When you open the box, you are greeted with a plethora of tools. The great thing about this is, it contains all the tools you’ll need for install including the level! I watched the videos on their site a couple of times (especially important is the video on how to get the bubbles out of the corners). The box comes with a couple bottles of LOCA in case you mess up once, the protector, an alcohol wipe, lint free rags, level, a wedge sponge, and a nano wipe to add oleophobic coating once finished.

I set everything up and got the surface level. I turned on the video, cleaned the phone, glass, and opened the loca. This being my first time I didn’t realize how far up the phone the sponge needs to go. You need to ensure that the sponge is holding the glass pretty high, or you’ll end up behind like I was! It took about 8-10 minutes for the glue to spread and I started working on bubbles. I’m very particular about bubbles as I installed protectors at Best Buy for a couple of years, so I worked at this for almost 30 minutes. I finally got them all out as I wiped excess LOCA away and felt good enough to start curing the glue. (Side Note: I think the bubbles were from lack of LOCA because I didn’t have the glass high enough and it hit the loca immediately. This caused it to run a little and I had to wipe more away than I wanted to. Also, you don’t need to wipe away as much as you think.) Wipe away all excess loca, and turn on the light. The light will turn off on its own. Set it over the top half of the phone and turn it on, once it turns off, move it to the bottom half and turn it on again. Do this 6 times, 3 for each half, and you are cured. Wipe away anything else left on the phone with a damp cloth, and wipe on the Nano Coating.

The protector is very smooth. I’ve been dealing with a gummy wet install protector and this is NIGHT AND DAY! I have no loss of screen sensitivity, and it feels amazing. It covers most of the screen so not all cases will work. I grabbed a Ringke fusion minimalist case, but it still butts right up to the protector. I have another glass, so I’m not super worried about it, but I am worried that it will lift it at some point. This is not a knock on the protector, but be prepared for this. You will start to love the feel of the naked phone! If it was less slippery I would remove the case, but I’m a klutz so I have to live with cases. You can’t go wrong with this screen protector, especially if you are looking for more coverage than the competitive LOCA protector offers. I've spent almost a week with it on, and I have yet to find a single issue with it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] evanwier:
Okay hopefully I get the tracking number today, as according to comments other people who ordered the same day as me got their tracking number yesterday.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] yamamonster600:
Loving it so far, but having a small issue

Loving this screen protector, I have had it on for about a week. Install was just as the video shows. I am having a little issue now with small lines starting to form at the top and working their way down. Going to give it another day and maybe try to get some loca underneath to stop it. No noticeable air bubbles prior to the lines showing up. Not a fan of screen protectors but since I broke the front and back glass on my first one I'm going to stick with it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Amritttt:
just now i have ordered it waiting for the tracking code i hope so its on time usually DHL Global Mail is **** lets see.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Artmov:
I'm trying to decide between the Dome and InvisShield .

How will does the InvisShield play with cases?

I'm planing on getting the RhinoShield Bumper and a DBrand skin.

Are there any other LOCA TGSP for the Pixel 2 XL?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] amirudinnordin:
just wondering... is it me or is that glass not THAT smooth? feels rough to the touch, like those $1 TGSPs. even after the oleophpbic wax/coat that was supplied, still feels kinda gritty.

anyone else facing this on their invisshield?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
Not me. Mine is as smooth as the factory glass.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] JAMJAMAL:
Anyone got one of these on with a spigen slim protection case? i'm wondering if the combo will be ok :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] stumpy352:
I just looked online at some pics of the case. I don't think that's going to work. The lip is too large. May work with the Whitestone though.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] thacounty:
Does not work well with Ringke fusion minimalist case. I am going to try something else soon, but my 2 ringke cases are lifting the protector.

Mine feels really smooth. I'm going to order an oleophobic coating kit for it, but that's only because I want to try one. Maybe you should reach out, sounds like yours may be defective.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] Hyflex:
Hi,

Still no reply to my email with a discount code :/
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] sc954rr:
Mine is smooth as factory screen. Don't even know it's on the phone half the time.

Thanks all for replying and also sharing which cases work and which don't. :) will compile it up soon.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Accessories] sc954rr:
I have that same ringke case. Where is yours lifting the glass? How long have you had screen protector on? Now I'm wondering if I should look at different case
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Curious Jack:
Greetings friends,

Dont know what happened but after doing a soft reset it wont start, stuck at the first page (black screen "Smart Mobility" and under it theres the :

R1.27.12.17 G 22.45.88.07H D1.56.00.00 all in red)tried soft reset several times but it gets stck same place ...

Thanks for any help

CJ
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] P1Tater:
have you removed the battery for a couple of sec's and then reinsert the battery and see what happens?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JimmyMcGee:
Well lets see a Kaiser is about .25lbs or 100grams if you prefer. Pop it in the microwave hit Defrost and Put in .3 lbs. (JUST KIDDING!)

If pulling the battery doesn't work try to Hard Reset. The Main Question here is, what changed from when It did start up good and now. Did you get a bad flash or is it time for a Warranty Replacement?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Curious Jack:
Nice one ...

Taking the beterry out didnt change anything, before a hard reset should i take out the sd card ?

CJ
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] P1Tater:
i never do.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] unwired4:
try a soft reset without the card anyway.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Curious Jack:
Thanks guys ... a hard reset fixed it all ... now i have to put all back.

CJ
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] JimmyMcGee:
Yup Such is the pain of Hard Resetting. Which is why we try everything else before we do that. Soft Resetting. Pull battery, Soft Reset while standing on your head. Glad to hear Hard Reset Worked.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] P1Tater:
congrats. glad everything turned out ok.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] -haze-:
My Tilt is doing the same thing. I'm stuck on Dutty's load screen.

I think I know what I did to screw it up also.

My battery was completely dead so I plugged it in. I tried turning it on as soon as I plugged it into the charger. I don't think the battery had enough juice for a full startup yet, so it got stuck half way through. Now it won't load up for anything.

If anyone knows something I can do besides a hard reset, please let me know.

Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] -haze-:
Oh crap, I just got a white screen that says something about me screwing up my device to press send to do a hard reset.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] leoni1980:
The 32gb athena mod thread has been about for a while, but with the imminent release of 16gb micro sdhc's and 32gb micro sdhc's to follow shortly after is there still a need for such a mod?

Would you risk bricking your device and voiding your warranty to install an ssd or prefer a memory card as an alternative. I am reliably informed that the read/write speed of internal drives is quicker in benchmarking tests, but how much bearing does this have on performance? what i know from experience is that the transfer speed of sdhc cards with a reader is much quicker than the software alternatives of wm5torage and activesync.

I would like to hear what you think the advantage of an ssd over a memory card of the same capacity is. If you were to buy a 32gb card would you even consider removing or disabling the microdrive to save battery life? Or would you prefer the full 40gb and utilise the two storage mediums for different purposes?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] adamelphick:
I think replacing the internal microdrive with a 1" SSD would help battery life as well as give us even more potential capacity. We would be able to have full movies on the drive instead of having to use an SDHC card with the lower transfer rate.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] leoni1980:
The speed of an SDHC card versus an SSD for viewing movies is completely irrelevant. An SDHC is MORE THAN FAST ENOUGH to watch a movie smoothly, even one of a very high bitrate.

The transfer speed of files TO an SDHC card using a card reader is VERY HIGH in comparison to transferring files over activesync or via WM5torage to an internal drive however. This for me is the crucial factor, since i'd much rather be able to copy new films onto a card as quickly as possible. The only way the extra speed of an internal drive might make a difference is with the installation of programs, but you would still be able to install programs to the 8gb microdrive AND have a 32gb card.

Try copying 2gb of data to your microdrive with wm5torage, and 2gb to an sdhc card with a reader.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] eaglesteve:
Actually, my choice is C, which is to do BOTH the options listed.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] adamelphick:
That's basically what i said eaglesteve.... don't want to limit out memory potential... the MD is cack compared to a decent SSD module - not due to its access times which for MD are good, but due to its shock resistance and battery life.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] GuardianZX9:
I agree, Both would be great, but the cost of the 32 Gig unit is going to be a lot more than the difference between the X7500 price and the X7510s.

Realistically our current options pricewise will be the X7510 with 16Gig internal and a 12Gig MicroSD card.

G
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] toyfreak:
For me, replacing the 8GB MD with a 32GB SSD would be, as they say in the UK, "the dog's bollocks..." I am a pilot and the MD, in addition to its shock and vibration sensitivity, is only good for 10,000 ft and below in unpressurized cabins. This alone would be enough to make me switch. Mechanical disks are in the early stages of extinction.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvi0:
Hello looking at getting either the t719 or t715. Which one is best between the 2 please?. Also how long does it take to charge the tablet and does it also have adaptable storage to move all apps to sd card please?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvi0:
Hello still need to know please if anyone can help it would be great thanks.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masteryates:
The T715 has the Exynos CPU and therefore supports TV out and has a good GPU.

The T719 has the SD652 and is a bit faster than Exynos but this comes at the expense of TV out and the GPU is slightly weaker. Unless your a gamer, get the SD version if they are the same price.

Battery on both isn't great as its so small at 4000Mah but these tablets are the lightest you can buy.

Can't answer your other questions.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvi0:
Hello many thanks and how about fast charging? How long does it take to charge these up please? So the T715 is the only version with TV out?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Masteryates:
It doesn't support fast charging but the small 4000mah battery doesn't take that long to charge. The models that support TV out are the 2015 models with the Exynos SoC which are 8", 710, 715 & 9.7", 810, 815.
