I've used an Invisible Shield on the last three phones I've had.

As long as you get it put on properly, they last forever.

I usually shill out the few bucks to have the guy at best buy do it since if they screw it up, they have to put a new one on.
[EVO 4G Accessories] housry23:
I got the one from the OP yesterday and put it on. I like the feel of it, but it is a fingerprint and finger oil magnet. It also doesn't cover the whole screen. There are small strips on each side longways that are not covered. I liked my Zagg InvisibleShield because it didn't attract this stuff and covered the whole screen. The only thing I didn't like about Invisible is the rubbery feel of it. Good thing they have a lifetime warranty. I got a new one on the way for only the cost of shipping.
[EVO 4G Accessories] tomtbone:
There really aren't any instructions for this one, I just received mine today. Do you use any soapy water or anything? I;m going to install it in a steamy bathroom.
[EVO 4G Accessories] ElAguila:
I am not familiar with that one. I had one of the SGP protectors and I liked it but it scratched too easily. I use the bodyguardz. It offers the same protection as the invisible shield but I like the feel of it better. They have a dry apply version available now. I have just ordered one of the wrap sol protectors. I will let you know how it compares.

I use Reallook. I had one on my vibrant and now on my evo. They are pretty cheap on amazon. It covers the whole face and is unnoticeable. Also reusable, and easy to apply
[EVO 4G Accessories] bleedscarlet:
I actually bought the screen protectors listed by OP.

It was nice because they actually sent me NINE screen protectors, hah. The texture and clarity is identical to the stock glass.
[EVO 4G Accessories] fixxxer2008:
im about done with screen protectors in general. today at work i got a bit of paint over spray on my screen protector "phanton skinz" so i used a bit of alcohol & nail polish removed mixed with warm water to remove it and it totally jacked the protector up. i have this horrid film on it now and im pissed. these things are suppose to be indestructible. so like an ass i ordered one more just now and after that im done with them in general. next time ill but a dry application cheapy. :mad:

i wish they made the evo with gorilla glass and i wouldn't even bother.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Tre Lawrence:
I use Screenpatronus... good product, good price.

With the Evo having Gorilla Glass, I have gone screen protector less and have never been happier.

[EVO 4G Accessories] bryank930:
I thought the Evo does NOT have gorilla glass....

Oh, and I use Clarivue anti-glare screen protectors.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mrpickem:
I tried the Skinomi for awhile and wasn't impressed. I have now gone bare screen for over 2 months with no problem. I use a barely there case and carry the phone in my back pocket. Never baby it. The glass seems pretty tough to me.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Ddt928:
I recently decided to go raw dog as well. I have not had any issues since. The glass does seem to smudge more though.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Ceger:
It does, or something exactly like it. I have even done nails, razor, etc. with no issues. Is in my pocket everyday since it came out last June and the screen is perfect as day one.

[EVO 4G Accessories] sensate:
I personally use the SGP Steinheil Ultra Crystal... and that's the business. I have several family members who have other screen protectors or none at all. Those who have other screen protectors, have an Evo that feels very sticky and a blatant disruption from touchscreen manipulation. And those who don't have a screen protector on their Evo, I can hardly tell a difference from mine!

It's costly, for sure at around 14 bucks, but it brings two. The other thing is installation. I personally had no problem whatsoever putting it on, but other reviewers were complaining about this.

But hey, this is XDA, and i'm sure the people who have the intellect to play around with their phones, have some sort of common sense, as well.

Check it out, I recommend

[EVO 4G Accessories] Nashianei:
I have a Zagg InvisibleShield on my Evo. Its alright, I wouldn't say its the most amazing thing ever. It does what its supposed too, feels alright. Only problem is that it gets really smudgy. However, I had one on my G1 that literally saved the phone's screen. When my Wife had one peel up, they switched it out for free.
[EVO 4G Accessories] fixxxer2008:
phantom skinz..... just installed my new one and it's crystal clear. you can pick two of them up for only $7 free shipping.
[EVO 4G Accessories] bossjeeves:
no skin, my phone is always in my pocket, even with my keys sometimes, still as good as new, IMO screen protectors are a waste of money and take away from the glassy UI and experience that one should have with a high end phone such as the EVO.
[EVO 4G Accessories] fixxxer2008:
well i have to disagree, your gonna screw your screen up sooner or later. this isn't gorilla glass like the epic has, it's needs protection. BUT to each their own i guess!
[EVO 4G Accessories] nyc_zx10:
I'm using a privacy screen screen protector. I need both screen protection and privacy as I commute a lot and there's tons of nosy people here in NYC haha. Got it off Amazon but I cant remember which one. There are a few floating around that do not allow the bottom buttons to be functional.
[EVO 4G Accessories] doubledrake20:
To the OP, can u please post a poll with the most popular brands of screen protectors so everyone can vote and we can get a clearer idea of which screen protectors are the most liked? If this has been done in another thread, pardon my post. Btw, no screen protector here, loving the slickness, it's definitely no gorilla glass though. I've scratched it (by mistake of course) by keeping in it in my pocket with keys... and cracked the screen from a 2 foot fall off of a table... I got a new evo and want to get a screen protector but don't want to lose the sexy glass feel.... =/ which one is the best without grease magnet finger print smudging, no plastic feel and clear glass look? Can I have my cake and eat it too? And what's cake without the sweet frosting?
[EVO 4G Accessories] Bigjim1488:
I have used these for years. The best I have had, it almost feel's like there is no protector on your screen at all.

[EVO 4G Accessories] blakjak220:
I just have the original sprint protectors and they've done me good so far.. for the most part they have the hardness of glass but sometimes it's a little "grippier" than I would like, depending on the temp and humidity.. I've had this one on for about 4 months and only have one small scratch that's visible when the screen's off (I dropped it on the pavement, so I think I came out pretty good)...

I did get one of those full-body guards from Stealth-Guards but havent tried it yet since I like my current Otter Box / screen protector set-up

Best Skins Ever http://www.bestskinsever.com/htc-evo-4g

I have used cheaper ones from eBay sellers, but those always seem to have defects.

I always recommend BSE for screen protectors. Takes a couple days for the cloudiness to disappear. Be sure to thoroughly remove any adhesive from previous skins.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Toney Starks:
anyone tried the bodyguardz?
[EVO 4G Accessories] dcfella:
I'm looking for a screen protector for my Evo and also for a Mytouch 4g. I've had a few already, but still not totally satisfied. I've had Zagg(hate the sticky feel), StealthGuards(cheap in every way), and i've been using the dry application protector i got with my CM Barely There case. I like the one that came with the Case Mate, since it feels just like glass, but it's pretty scratched up now.

Any recommendations for a screen protector, that feels like glass and is NOT sticky or tacky? Also, one that isn't so scratch prone would be nice too.
[EVO 4G Accessories] rwstarke:
Best Skins Ever http://www.bestskinsever.com/htc-evo-4g

Since I wear glasses, I use Bausch & Lomb Sight Savers cleaning tissues. I always wipe my phone display skin with it when I clean my glasses & the screen always feels slick (and clean).

Is it possible to access the net using the USB cable and go to the android market? I don't have wifi/gprs enabled on the phone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] frskies:
I think it only works the other way around, meaning you can access the internets from your computer using the phones modem. If your computer has a wireless adapter you can download connectify (free) and turn it into a wifi hotspot, works for me!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sharksanks:
I got what you said, but i still want to know if there is a way without using wifi or paying the mobile service a large sum of money for net access.

So... What you're saying is that he should stuff a Viagra in the headphone jack on his phone?

Sent from my Captivate.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] shokkapic:
Viagra doesn't make it bigger. It makes it harder.

Answer: You can overclock your CPU. Your device must be rooted, and you can use SetCPU to do so. To root your phone, download Universal Androot from market, and run it. Download SetCPU from HERE and put it in your memory card. Then download and install ASTRO File Manager from market, run it, search the SetCPU.apk on your SD Card, install it. Open SetCPU and play with it.

Warning: I highly doubt you will be able to root it. But good luck anyways. ;)

I'm getting a replacement evo on tuesday, I currently have a launch date evo with hardware 002 so im not quite up to date with the latest evos.. Now assuming it comes hardware 004 what would be the best method to root??? Also does it work with cm6 I read something about camera issues.. And last but not least does it work with kernels such as netarchy's with everything working??

Nothing other than they know about it...and they're working on it :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
The 004 (and some 003s) have a new camera which uses different drivers, and since HTC is breaking the law by not releasing the kernel source ("yet") the CM team has to build up the drivers from scratch. Toastcfh has told me that he will start working on the camera as soon as he finishes polishing up WiMax.

As for rooting, it's possible. 2.02 and 2.10 hboot have both been rooted, they just take some effort, and do not panic. Also, knowing how to BS to a Sprint store rep in case you brick your phone is a good idea, just in case.

hello will sprint ever come out with a new release for the tp2 like idk 6.5.3?

i have a sprint tp2, also a tmobile hd2....i don't think the tp2 has 6.5.3, but the hd2 does :).
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] elander:
Head over ppcgeeks.com, as they have the largest (afaik) list of tp2 cdma roms available, most of them are indeed wm 6.5.x and there are a few made specifically for sprint users. (Of course flashing them will void your warranty, but it´s worth the risk).
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ai6908:
You will not find an official wm6.5.x upgrade for tp2.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] DavidinCT:
PPCkitchen.org. Pick a 6.5.3 build and build one yourslelf. It might take a few tries but, it's not that hard to get started and you can customize a rom to your tastes with your apps.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbs11:
Make sure the Google Talk services are running.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
Steps to try:

1) Clear market data, retry downloads.

2) Depending on the rom you are on, Froyo build, you may not have a unique Android ID. If this is the case, download Android ID Changer and change the ID to something other than seen. Next time you flash stock, get your unique Android ID and write it down so you can use in the future.

Good luck.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myzenith:
I didn't get Froyo yet, and I just rooted in order to get the permission of installing apps freely. so I didn't do anything with roms. And I realized that Google talk is not working. I never played that app becuase I'm using kakaotalk. It says signing in...but nothing happens. How can I erase maket data then. I think I should have study more before rooting. How does goolge talk running related to market?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbs11:
Both the market and Google talk use this service called

Google Talk Service (or something like that)

If you use a program that blocks startup programs make sure both google talk and its service are greenlisted. In addition try to stop using any task killers to see if that is the problem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myzenith:
And the massage "Sorry! The process com.google.process. gapps has stopped unexpectedly. please try again." comes out from time to time with 'force close' button.

What does it mean?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbs11:
I think it is tied to GMail sync which is also tied to the Google Talk service I believe.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myzenith:
I uninstalled apps have chances auto killing that process. They are one click lag, auto killer memory, but nothing changed after rebooting. Even the same error message came out as soon as rebooted. The odd thing is that that task is still running when i check with android hackers. How can I control the start up apps?

Oh my Gosh!! I love XDA developers friends!! Thanks diablo, nbs !! I just found out other thread with same issue and fixed beautifully my captivate.

Here is what I did. I downloaded google talk services apps from here, and copy them to systems/app, and reboot. They are automatically downloading all the accumulated failed downloading after rebooting. I might have deleted some gtalk related apps by mistake. Hooray!!

There's one in this forum (PhamQuang) with that problem...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TT_Vert:
Basically when I install the warm 2.2 rom it will hang on the htc evo screen. I had flashed this rom earlier this morning and it flashed fine. Ever since I've flashed CR 6.1.1 this afternoon i've been having problems. Even my baked snack 1.9 rom is very slow but comes up after either sitting at the Green HTC text after it has booted. I had to power down the phone a few times to even get that to come up. Is there something I'm doing wrong here all the sudden? I am clearing davlik and partition cache, even tried to wide data/restore to no avail. I'm at a loss here. Anyone have any input here? As I type this, I just did a complete wipe and tried to install Warm 2.2 and it is just sittin at the white screen that says HTC EVO 4G. Powered down a few times and removed battery for a minute to no avail, still just sits at that white screen.

I am able to restore from nandroid. I am also able to isntall a few roms.

Thanks

Uh, what kernel/radios are you using? I had similar problems when I flashed the all in one radio combo in calk's thread.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TT_Vert:
That is exactly what I did too, flashed the radios. How did you resolve that issue? I dind't even think that would cause these types of problems.

I just put on Fresh 3.5 and it installed fine. I am using kernel 2.6.32.17-gee557fd (under it says htc-kernel@and18-2 #15 (Which kernel would that be?) PRI is 1.90_003

Well I downgraded the radio to2.15.00.09.01 and I got past the white screen and into warm. THanks much!! I had no idea that a radio would just cause it to hang like that. So the only way to revert back to an old radio file is to install it? A nanrestore doesn't do that it appears??

Thanks very much
