Hey guys. Just wanted to show you all what I decided to do here. I have the Samsung Clear View case in silver/grey for my White Note 5. I really like it, but the case being a shiny plastic scratches up like a mother just by looking at it wrong. Especially on the back. So I decided, why not get a skin for it? I have used stickerboy in the past, and they are having a Labor Day 25% off deal right now so I ordered a "leather" skin in pewter color. I did have to make the cutout myself around the camera hole. Turned out pretty good, but not perfect. Otherwise I really like it and I don't have to worry about it scratching on the back at all any more. Plus it adds grip which is great.

Looks pretty damn good to me.

Has anyone done a custom skin for their incredible from Gelaskins.com. I recently got a groupon deal for $30 in Gift cards for $5 so I'm going to go the custom route and upload images to try to make a really nice skin image that matches the contours of the phone. I was just wondering if anyone else has tried this.

I did, it was a nice little (somewhat) protective addition.
Likewise, though a fair bit of warning: they cover the light/proximity sensor. You'll have to carefully cut out a small square with an exacto knife to regain that bit of functionality.
Here's the one I designed:

apparently uploading degrades quality quite a bit...
I also made a sweet dock over last weekend I'll show off. Very easy to make.
Has anyone tried this on their phone?
I'm going to order enough to test and was wondering if anyone one had success stories or tips.

You can buy precut ones at phantomskinz. It comes with 2 screen protectors as well. Those are quite nice, no orange peel effect and not tacky at all
i dont need a signature
you know, that's not a bad idea...I've got access to a CNC router and mill here at work, and a place I can buy some sweet looking carbon fiber from (http://www.dragonplate.com/default.asp). It'd be worth it to make a back for my phone. Wouldn't take me that long either, but I'd have to get time to do it, and that's not likely to happen any time soon.
With any luck, I'll convince the boss to paint more android phones, because our products are seriously sweet, albeit extremely expensive. I'd love to have my Shift painted a custom color, or do some corporate testing with it...doubt it'll happen though
New York based seller. $10.99 and free shipping. Looks perfect. My phone is white but I prefer a black case being a professional businessman. Dudes using white cases have always seemed a bit odd to me. Weird that I think white phones are cool but white cases look feminine. Oh well.
Only negative is no cutout for the earpiece. However, I always use bluetooth headset so shouldn't be an issue.

** One added benefit of this type of case is that the little nip that is used to clip it closed will also serve to slightly elevate the back of one side of the phone when I am writing in landscape mode and have the cover folded back which for me makes writing easier.
I am guessing with these that since you keep your OEM back on the phone that the NFC thing would still work.
Just found this awesome looking case when I was browsing on Aliexpress.

I know the pictures are not of the actually phone, instead of a computer render. But for $4, I am tempted to get one for real pics and reviews.
I have 2 of them, The gold and dark blue. They are actually rather thin compared to some other cases like this, but are well made and offer a decent amount of protection.

Nice design, but still I prefer my G4 'naked' to have it as thin as possible.
I have the gold one. It's good because it makes the back of the phone flat watch works well when your using it on a table
Hello have you ever tried this screen protector?

I've tried one similar (if not that actual one). It was pretty awful. Felt like plastic, scratched immediately just wiping it after application.
Transparent ones will lift at the edges if they go all the way out and it'll look awful, just fyi
had the same, waste of money, looks awful, feels like compressed plastic bag. payed two months ago 9€.
at the edges you will become small breaks in it and it looks like your phone screen is broken at the edges.
if you want a gadget that makes your 450$ phone look like trash you should buy it.
