I wouldnt really call it cheap.

Its the same 3M military grade rubberized plastic that Zagg and the rest of them use just they order the big roll then stamp it out they make maybe a dollar off of each phone after shipping and supply.

But its about half as thick as the Zagg and doesnt quite feel as rubbery but hell you are paying 3 dollars and it will be far easyer to fit in the Slip Grip car dock ^_^
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] kenny98023:
its good stuff, been on my g2 for about 2 weeks now.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] renn9420:
Just ordered mine anr can't wait. Great product. Used it before.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] xdviper:
Same with me. It's pretty good and the screen protector feels good as well.

None of that orange peel stuff neither, the air bubbles and water inside also went away in 3 days and it looks perfect, flawless now. I wish it also protected the sliver metal around the screen but it's good enough for $3.

And also, I like the glossy look of the phone when it's under light.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] scottmog:
lol wtf??? Ahahaha
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Dootuz:
Nice find!!! I went through SOO many G1's. I want to make my G2 live at least a year!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] nerminator:
These stealth shields are nice for sure.... $3.50 for two of them off of ebay, free shipping, arrived in 4 days....

Hell of a deal, Hell of a product.... Lower cost and better quality than anything I can get at work at cost.....

They also threw in a cleaning cloth and a squegee to put it on with... this is the service everybody should deliver!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Seattleite:
Just wanted to say thanks for passing on this kind of savings to the forum! Even if I only use the screen protector, that's cheaper than anything I could find in stores!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Okawa:
No Problem ^_^
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] linkage2424:
Nice find! I ordered one for my G2 and one for my girlfriend's G2. Just under $5 for the two. Much cheaper then the screen protectors or cases T-Mo sells.

Question: after applying this skin, can I still remove the battery cover?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Okawa:
Yep, The battery cover has its own little skin you can put on.

My only gripe with the whole kit is it doesnt cover the corners of the phone very well.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] CoolinHL:
One quick question: does the skin cover the camera?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] skiptomylou11:
Thanks!

I just ordered it, although I'm really just ordering it for the screen protector. How good is the rest of the protection?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Okawa:
The protector its self is very nice I really do like it. I just wish the back portion was a bit larger to cover the sides of the phone (Like the corner)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Troggie81:
Mine came in yesterday. I think the coverage is a little lacking, though. I ended up just using the screen protector (which is one of the best I've had). Phantom Skins has better coverage, but those started to turn yellow on me. It's still a good deal even if you only use the screen protector.

I just ordered 2 (one for me and my g/f)

As soon as they get here i'll post a vid for those who want an up close view of what it looks like and the quality.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] NXUS:
i had ordered mine for my blackberry 8330 and it was perfect and clear and you couldnt even tell it was on, now for my desire z, the screen protector went on flawless no air bubbles or anything but my screen looks grainy.

anyone else have this?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Rrod15:
Just ordered mine yesterday but I had a question. How much does it cover like how many peices does it come with?

Didn't really get to look at it on the site I ordered it from my phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] m0bstar:
ordered one, even if its ****, it was only $3
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Nighte:
Neat, quoting myself from another thread.

Update on that post though, the moisture evaporated just fine.

It definitely doesn't lose against other protectors that cost a lot more. Especially for the price.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] likeitnot:
Anyone have any pics?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] guy3o3:
Thanks for posting this.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] JackD3ath:
Great post, I went ahead and ordered one.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Rrod15:
Ordered 12/27 and still waiting. Wonder how much longer? How long did it take you guys to get yours?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] m0bstar:
I think the holidays slowed them down possibly because i still havent got mine and i ordered the same day too
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] vonmolk:
Thanks for this post! Just ordered two full body kits for both of the g2's. Only 4.85 total not bad at all.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] durps:
I ordered the 29th and just got mine today. I am located in NJ.

Not too pleased with the actual stealth guard, but for the price, I can't complain lol.

Ended up just using the guards for the bottom front, battery cover, and the back piece. Thought the screen protector wasn't necessary for my phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] alpharomero:
Can anyone tell me whether this would be good to use in conjunction with the "nice inexpensive case"?

*EDIT*: Ah, screw it, not enough patience to wait for an answer. Bought one for $2.85.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Rrod15:
Alright I got mine yesterday I guess all I had to do was complain haha...put it on my phone and I'm pleased with it just wish it covered the metal trim around the screen but not bad for $2.85.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] sixtninecat:
Quasi long term report... I have had these on my and my wife's G2s for about 3 months now she has the "nice inexpensive case" I am running mine naked... hers is holding up quite well with no detachment to speak of... mine isn't lifting but i can feel more of a ridge between the skin and the phone then when new other than that these are great especially when you consider the price... delivery time was about 10 working days US Mail
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] RavenFB:
Ordered. I really hope this works reasonably well. My phone is already getting a tad dinged up. Really ticks me off.

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] romdroid.:
thanks for the tip i orderd one now. do u get any fluid that u put on befoe like invisible shield?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Rrod15:
No you have to make you own with one drop of hand soap and 10oz of water...they have a video on youtube just search stealthguard
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] romdroid.:
u meant this guide? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DIBgCHbc-A

he is using some kind of liquid but i dont know what lol :p
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] JackD3ath:
No, this vid, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vszA8DTkfU&feature=related

The previous poster explained the solution mix.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] romdroid.:
thank you sir!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] JackD3ath:
Got mine today, installed in about 5 min. Great product for the price.

I kept using the card for about 15 min, which seemed to dry it out almost completely. Looks great, I used the battery cover skin and my thin shell cover still fits. There is a cutout for the camera, to answer a previous poster.

It was cut very precisely, I must say, for the price, I am very impressed.

*was gonna take some pics, but it is hard to show the quality through a photo.

*a note on installation, I didnt have a spray bottle so I just submerged the film in the solution and let gravity remove most of the excess, this seemed to work just fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] eatjello:
i also got mine today.

put the first screen protector on, was cut terribly. it was way too big.

ripped it off, put the second one on. fits great. perfect around the edges and the bottom. the problem is around the lip of the ear piece, it is too big, so it hangs off a little. pretty annoying for the OCD like me.

texture is great though. feels like glass. i haven't put on the back yet.

the back covers the silver door, the side with the rocker switch and USB port. it doesn't cover ANY of the other side (the door eject). also doesn't cover the silver edges.

but for 4.85 shipped. can't complain really.

i'll probably only be using the screen protector. if they fix the little issues, then it would be perfect.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Rrod15:
Year my brother just got his today for his droid x after he seen how mine came on my g2 he had to get one the only thing was that the very top above the screen and the bottom peiceso were too big but he used everything else screen, back, and battery cover.

Air bubbles

I did it as shown in the video and after 24 hours I have 8 air bubbles.

Will they go away or will I have to try and re-apply this silly thing??

Sorry I just found the post that said air bubbles go away in 3 days.

I have to learn to search better, read more closely and be more patient

yes i live in sweden they ship here to :)

Same for France, received 8 days after my order !
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] romdroid.:
i got mine today and i put it on, i got some heavy **** bubbles inside there...will they go away? :S
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] meltedmoops999:
I got mine 4 days after i bought it, put it on as directed (10 oz water, 1 drop non moisturizing soap in a spray bottle and squeegee the bubbles and excess water out). It took a couple hours to dry but the screen was spot free and looked like nothing was covering it. For $0 + $2.85 S+H, I would say that is a great deal. Looks very nice and shiny in the light too. I'm content with this product. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] romdroid.:
it seems like i got some fingerprints on mine :( will they go away? or do i need to order a new one
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] smithfb3:
Short answer yes, they will go away. When depends on their size. I put one on my wifes Samsung Gravity and within 25 hours no bubbles, she was very happy. On my G2 I had a dozen various size bubbles small one went away after 3 days, large ones took a week.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] romdroid.:
first one failed for me...had to throw it away i got fingerprints who didnt get off i will see if i should order one more
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] JackD3ath:
I have had this on for about a week or two now and it looks great. It cleared up within 8 hours.

To avoid fingerprints i highly advise getting your fingertips wet with the solution first. This helps to minimize prints on the sticky side when you peel it off the backing material.

During the day, if I clean it with my tshirt or some other fabric, it looks all scratched up, but in an hour its completely clear again.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] LGS1231:
Can't wait to get this product!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] LGS1231:
I was wondering if using the protector for the battery door will ruin the paint job. I've seen posts of how the back battery door can get chipped and scratched to a point where it is completely ruined and discolored. Would applying it and then removing the protector for it pull away any of the metallic metal?

Hope this question makes sense
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] durps:
I mean, if your battery door is already starting to peel or chip and then you take the cover off it might take some more of the clear finish along with it. If your battery door isn't chipping and you apply one of these skins and remove it, you'll be safe.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Nighte:
Here you go, shots of the bodykit:

Took this one with flash so that you can see it's actually on the phone

You can tell from here it's very smooth

The front little part

I didn't bother taking a shot of the screen, it's a perfect fit and you wouldn't be able to tell it's there unless I used flash.

I'm using a different protector now anyway.

It could probably protect a bit more of the phone, but it is what it is.

However, it does a good job protecting the parts that it covers.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] LGS1231:
What current screen protector are you using? It seems a bit short.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Nighte:
DC Mugen, it's not a perfect cut (unfortunately) but it's definitely the best quality protector I've used; which is why I consistently go back to them for protectors

It's good enough that I'll trade one with a perfect cut for it. haha (The stealth guard one wasn't bad, and it was a perfect cut, but the DC Mugen is simply outstanding IMHO!)

I have a review on the Stealth Guard one and DC Mugen on the "Recommend me a good screen protector" thread
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misterykid89:
I'm using stealth guards on my G2 as well. I got it 2 days ago. Honestly, I think it's actually pretty good being only about $5 for 2 sets. Only thing I wasn't too pleased with is that it doesn't protech the corners and the screen protector has bubbles underneath it even though I let it dry for 24 hours. We'll see after 48 hours if it clears up. But if not, I'm thinking about going with Clarivue ultra clear ones because I heard really good things about them.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] wtang:
Give it more than 24 hours for all the bubbles to disappear. It took about 2 weeks before all the bubbles were gone on mine... be patient.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misterykid89:
@wtang Really? That's good to hear. I thought something was wrong because there were A LOT of very small bubbles all over the screen.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Hilarium:
if the item is free, how come i cant buy 2 sets of this for the same shipping cost? I'm pretty sure they can fit 2 sets of protectors in 1 envelope.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] wtang:
Yep, really. I didn't believe it myself when I saw all the bubbles still trapped under the plastic after 24 hours. I didn't think the bubbles could evaporate through the plastic. But I kept the faith and pressed/rubbed on the bubbles a little every day. After about 2 weeks all the bubbles are gone and it looks great.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] misterykid89:
Sweet! Mine has been about 3-4 days now. A lot of the bubbles disappeared!! All of you guys worrying about if its worth getting this, do get it. Other than how it doesn't "fully" protect, it feels nice and very high quality for not even$5 for two. (Btw, I bought two, but I messed up the first try, so I used my second one. Its worth it. I would've payed $5 for one now that I know how nice it is)
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] MrFrankfromCM:
Just placed my order for one of these. Great price if anything.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Roboito:
Heck of a deal there!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Powers88:
Ordered two for me. Might as well your not gonna find a better deal
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ahmadka:
Should I still get the Ottobox for my Desire Z ? .. Or is this good enough would you all say ?

Also, does this cover the complete body like the Ottorbox ?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Maciz:
Ok, this is weird. Try to buy one, but here's the thing: my end total comes out at $0.00 because the shipping quote won't add anything. So I can't pay for it with PayPall (well duuh, paying $0.00 is kinda weird), but this way I can't continue with my purchase....

Anybody some ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] acids7n:
just ordered mine, no issues. i first clicked on paypal checkout and got an error, then i tried regular check out and it asked me for information and then i choose paypal express and it worked fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] MrFrankfromCM:
Do you HAVE to use a solution? or can I just stick em on and use credit card for the bubbles if any? I'd rather not have liquids on the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] durps:
I used it without the solution and it's still doing fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] MrFrankfromCM:
Yeah, I decided to not use any solution and it is working fine. Bubbles still going away on their own too.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] btate0121:
I just installed mine using the baby oil/water solution (a really generous amount actually. LOL). Worked like a charm. The phone is resting now and looks good. Very minimal bubbles but a few hanging corners and curves but they seem to be working themselves out.

very surprised at how precise this cut is.. but still enough play as to not make installing a complete pain. i'd say i spent close to an hour getting it all.. but i went really slow. great cost for a great skin. I'm satisfied.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ahmadka:
Guys I received two different screen protectors in the mail today, this one, and the one that comes with the Ottorbox casing ..

Which one should I stick on ?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] ahmadka:
^^^^ Any suggestions ?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Gwanatu:
Well crap! I'm going to book mark this! Thanks all!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] chobie:
Put the StealthGuard on first, you paid less for it :D You can always peel it off if you don't like it.

I have the Otterbox though now and it's great. You don't even notice it's there.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] dkmurphys:
InvisibleSHIELD

I bought one of these the same day I purchased my Desire Z:

This shield is amazing and I have never had any problems. I had the professionals at the store install the shield as well, so they guaranteed that their installation would produce zero bubbles or they would replace it. As a Canadian I went to Future Shop and it was great and I couldn't be happier with any other 'case'.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] NuShrike:
Put one only the metal backing using a glasses cleaner lens solution (water and touch of soap) a couple months ago. Solution lets you slide on the shield and not worry about dust, static and placement until it's perfect. It's the same technique for putting on window tint for a car.

Few days for the hidden bubbles to pop up and then go away. It's not exactly the most precise fit for the metal back, but the rubberized feel is great. It's almost just thick enough to keep the rest of the back from touching a table surface so I didn't bother putting anything more on.

I thought it would be cheap plastically like the Samsung phones, but not at all! The G2 really should've came like this stock.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] JackD3ath:
Its been two months and this thing still looks great!

I also used the metal cover, mine fit perfect and still looks good.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] TheShoura:
I bought mine 1 month ago and still never received it. I have no way of contacting them, their "Contact Us" link is broken!

I filed claim with paypal and got my 3 dollars back lol... but item was never shipped. Kinda pissed about that
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] pmcqueen:
yesterday the G2 section of their site was down as well. maybe they ran out a little faster than expected and for $3 a piece thought people would just forget? haha.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Ryanmo5:
Yeah G2 link on their site is not working, oh well looked pretty nice!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Powers88:
Got it on and I must say it is excellent. Definitely worth what you pay for it. Once the soap/water dries the screen is very clear
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] simplyTravis:
I must say that I hate, hate, HATE putting on screen protectors as I can never get them on right. The StealthGuard protectors have been awesome for those too clumsy and messy to get the screen to go on without bubbles or dirt underneath. I used the water method with a tiny drop of Dawn dish washing soap and it worked very well. The bubbles came out within a week and I have to say that I really like the extra shininess that my phone has acquired. Also, I did get a scratch on the protector and it seemed to "heal" itself after a day unlike the other brands (BodyGuardz/T-mobile Brand) I have bought that claimed they had healing properties.

This is a must buy for the shipping and handling, 'nuff said.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] TheToiletSpaula:
What the heck!

The link for the G2 protector keeps opening a dead-blank window~

Curses...!
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Pr.TOSHIBA:
Should I get one of these and use it instead of a hard rubber cheapo case that I got?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] astriaos:
Since this is essentially a stickon, you're unlikely to have the shock absorption that a rubberized case will have. If you're looking to keep your g2 in very pristine condition over its life, applying the stealthguard, then putting it inside an additional case would seem to make more sense than just the stealthguard, or an additonal case itself.

Frankly I intend on installing mine tomorrow and buying an otterbox for impact protection. It's a case people. They're designed to take an impact rather than having your shiney new computotellulardevice explode on impact when you drop it in a drunken fit at Cousin Louie's wedding.

Gonna try this one, sweet

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] meepmopmop:
Anyone having touble at the checkout? The payment method area doesn't show up or something. I can't find where to input the credit card info and stuff..
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] s0epkip:
You should *only* enter your country to get a shopping quote, *NOT* your zip code (leave that field empty) then it should work: just ordered one with a Dutch address.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] cloakster:
I also can't get the payment method area to show up. Ive tried several different browsers with the same result. Anyone know a way around this?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] astriaos:
So I finally popped this sucker on after having it sitting in my cars glovebox for well over a month. Install was relatively smooth and fit is almost perfect, just a little overhang on the edge of the speaker.

This cover really feels good. A very slight tackiness is present while drying. Obviously during this cure stage you will see a slight rippling of the screen surface but I can see only some 4 hours after installation it getting smoother. I don't expect to see this go away entirely but the effect is not unpleasant, much like the shimmering of stained glass.

I don't know if it is just my perceptions lying to me but the already excellent capacative response seems sharper after application of the stealthguard.

I would highly recommended this product. Excellent value and does its job.

Edit:

Another 24 hours and the last of the bubbles have dissapeared. I can see a slight rippling around where I used the back side of a bic to squeeze (the large enough to have a core of o2 bubbles) bumps out towards the edge. It seems as this surface cures it smooths out. I let one of my co workers tap the center of the screen with his fingernail and the little ridges it causes are already starting to smooth out.

Stealthguard: My love for you is like a truck. To bad this is all rather elementary as you don't actually produce this unit anymore. What the hell is your issue? Did I somehow screw up last week when I didn't give that wandering musician $5 for a rose to you to clutch between your tender, succulent lips? Was the alfredo I cooked for you to salty? I swear, that Parmesan was produced by the purest of monks in some deep valley.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] bastage:
I bought one of these for my Mt3g & my wifes g1 a long while back.. Its a ripoff.. The ebay **** from china thats a bit cheaper is typically much better quality.

To be honest though we never even got them installed. the idiot shipped them with the tacky sides together & when they arrived they were stuck together & could not be separated (ended up stretching them all out of whack before one finally tore).

They are like the cheap window cling style screen protectors.
