LOOK WHAT I FOUND! FREE STEALTHGUARD FOR THE HD2 JUST PAY SHIPPING!!!
http://www.stealthguards.com/index.php/cellphones/htc-hd2-full-body-protection.html
Just ordered one! 4 bucks isnt bad....needed something to protect from scratches.....hopefully install won't be a pain like Best Skins Ever was.
Is stealthguards comparable to zagg invisible shield?
Sweet. Thanks for the heads up.
good finding. Thanks!
yuup! when i saw it i was like
Practically free but not quite, $3.85 for total protection...... but does this fit the T-Mobile version because the site does not specifically mention it and from the picture it's hard to tell.
Actually LOL I must be blind there's a small blurred tmobile stamp on top..... but some confirmations would be nice.
Thanks Brother--3 for 8 bucks all day long.
Thanks! I ordered 2 myself...
Thnks, just copped 2
thanks,
just brought 2
Just bought one as well....I'll post a review when I get it. I've used Invisible Shield and Ghost Armor - Ghost Armor being the better product. We shall see on Stealth Guard.
Does anyone know how long it will take them to ship out?
Oh wow, this is awesome. Thanks for sharing!
ill post a review when i get it in
I did contact their customer support to find out which model this was for - they state that it has not been tested on the International version, so they do not know if it will fit on that one. Clearly it is made for the TMO US version. Just thought I'd give you all a positive on that.
how long does it usually take before u get it.? i just ordered 2 for my 2 hd2's
Netted me 2. Thanx!
nice find, thanks brother. just placed an order for 2
3 for $6.98. Not bad. Theres no stipulations here eh?
Can someone please share the review of Otterbox commuter for Note 2? I am deciding between Defender and commuter.
Thank you so much!
I should be receiving in the mail any day now, I'll put up a review soon.
Just waiting on a review myself to pull the trigger. My main concern is that the buttons would be hard to press like the ones on the commuter for the Galaxy S3.
Sent from my Galaxy Note 2
can wait, its on my xmas list!
Should be recieving mine also tomorrow. I'll try and post picks too. Defender looks too big imo because the phone is pretty big already.
Btw: ordered the black one through otterbox because I guess they got more in stock.

Sorry I dont have time for a review I am slammed at work. I have the commuter it came yesterday. It is awesome. In my opinion a typical user would not need the Defender and this is PLEANTY fine. It's great. Solid. Rubber lip around front so I can put it face down and not care. Buttons are not hard to push. It gives my GN2 a very solid feel like you can toss it around or toss it on the nightstant (not that we would... but we could with no worries). Pretty easy to put it on and take it off too but just hard enough that the phone aint coming out - no way.
I have 3 other cases. A really thin (TPU is it?) case that is the BARE minimum one can do. I love it but phone is almost naked. I would wear that case in a suit or a tux if packing the phone in the suit or tux pocket. So Ill hang onto that. I also have the Verizon case that has a kickstand built in. I can see using that if going somewhere and I know ill be watching a game at the restaurant, etc. But for a daily solid everyday case, 100% the commuter is your case.
The 4th case is the Body Glove case people were talking about - but not the cool one - the one with the smooth black square. I gotta sell that or give that to someone Ill never use it with the 3 I have now. It's not even taken out of the box lol.
Ill be interested to see the other posts tomorrow when you guys get it. I love it.

My concerns is that the back and side don't seem grippy enough. I love the textured polycarbonate back of Case-Mate's Tough Case because it provides grip. How's the Commuter's back or grippiness?
Can somone post a link to a site that currently sells an otter box for the GN2? I cant seem to find one anywhere with an order now tab.....

I just order me a black Commuter case last week on Friday, first they sent me an email talking about they won't charge my account til my order has been processed, then they send me a Invoice stating my account has charged along with a tracking number. I don't know if this means my stuff has shipped or not? Im thinking they have not shipped it yet, they just processed my order (basically took my order) without having a product. I am going to cancel my order and try a similar case until they get the black Commuters back in.

There is a review and photos of the Commuter on the Android Forums site.

I actually got my GN2 Commuter case 2 days ago and I am returning it. Great case, very solid feel and build. Buttons on the bottom are easy to access, volume and power are easy to press, etc. The reason I am returning is for me it added too much bulk and weight to an already big phone. I haven't shipped it out yet and won't get a chance until Saturday by then the other case I ordered will arrive tomorrow and I can decide which I really want to keep.
For those who already have the case, how do you feel about its weight and additional thickness?

I had ordered mine last Friday as well, it shipped out on Saturday and arrived on Tuesday. I never got an email saying it shipped, but when I checked my order status it said processing and had a tracking # from Fed Ex. It arrived on Tuesday. Sadly I am going to send it back, I just feel its too bulky, though the replacement case I ordered won't be here until tomorrow so I won't return until Saturday once I decide which case I am keeping.
The pita about case shopping is having to buy and possibly return or buy many to get the right one. OtterBox is rock solid and worth the price but I need some level of grip on the case so it doesn't slip out of my hands.
I've been looking around for trying to find a waterproof case to take in the pool area. Does anyone know of a good quality one? Maybe you own one and can go give your opinion. I have seen the seidio obex case online and seems to be the only one I can find.

Damn! ! Lol I pre ordered one today. Guess I better continue being careful. I cracked my screen on my s4 waiting for my life proof, at the time I was on mdl so it was unlocked with loki.

Well got my case today, Very Study case.Feels great in the hand. People can hear me fine and I can hear them fine. Two huge cons right now,The proximity sensor automatically trips so as soon as I place a call the screen goes out and to end the call I have to push the power button and then hit end call. And two is the headphone port cover can come loose very easy,And when I mean easy I mean you barely touch it and it pops out. I called Sedio but they are out of the office today and will return Monday. Also they have little dots all over the screen that when your looking at the screen with a light back ground it looks like little specs of water droplets.
I read somewhere those dots are spacers to prevent rainbow effect and other issues related to sandwiching of screens.

Would like to test this out and provide reviews. I am currently testing a couple of your other cases too.
I would like to see something like the Lifeproof nuud. Nobody makes anything like that. I hate cheap plastic built in screen protectors, and believe Gorilla Glass 4 is good enough for most screen protection on it's own.
It's edge drops and water in ports that can do most damage to phones I believe.
In case you don't know what the nuud does, it's basicly your case with a gasket against the screen instead of a plastic screen protector on the front.
I bought a Sup case that I removed the screen protector from the front, and the camera covering from the back. It's OK, but buying something would be better than having to mod a case.
Thanks.
I'll try one out

I'm interested as well and I'm curious to see how an otterbox type case will function with the Note 5.. Will contact on Facebook for coupon code.
Thanks!
I am always willing to try a new case. I am currently using the Otterbox Defender so I would be able to compare your case to the actual Otterbox Defender.

Would love to give this one a try,
Hi only request/suggestion is to make an international shipping possible. As i am do interested in purchasing one for myself but no luck as it doesnt ship to SG.

so has anyone actually received a coupon code yet? after I posted here I sent them a facebook message, they responded that I needed to like their page, share their page, and before I use the coupon I needed to put the case on my amazon wish list, which I did. But they never actually sent me a coupon code LOL. I've messaged them a couple more times about what else they want me to do to receive this code and get no response now. kinda bogus. Guess you could say customer service is already in the crapper.
Try the coupon "artech50" I used this coupon a while back and got 50% off. It's a nice case, very very sturdy
I would like to give it a try if still available. I have sent you a Facebook message. Thanks.
I see there are only 17 replies to this offer. I would really like an opportunity to write a review for your product.

I requested to test yesterday morning and got the code by FaceBook early this morning. They apologized for the delay as they have been busy. Seemed like a legitimate response.
Yes, they finally got back to me with a code, but it was after I asked to review another one of their cases, not this one. which kind of makes me sad, I really wanted to give this one a try. But I won't complain, at least they finally got back to me.

Hi everyone, I decided to order a few customized back skins for the note 8 from @slickwraps and it looks like they are slammed with orders. Then I read some horrible reviews on this forums and around the net about this "shady" company ... damn, wish I found the reviews before ordering.
Well, it has been only 3 days, but I really hope everything is ok.
Anyone knows of another company where you can upload your own picture to make the back skin for the note 8? I tried with skinit too, but their skins don't have the camera piece. Dbrand doesn't have an option to customize your skin using your own picture.

I have two of their skins now, one on the phone, one for backup if I feel like changing. They have a huge range of designs, which is why I like them, but I did make a custom skin for my Note 2 years ago from them.

What's with the hostility? You pointed out that dbrand had a bad score and while failing to realize you guys had the same exact score. No where did he say he wanted a refund and instead hoped that things were going to be fine. Why not just prove to him how you guys provide great customer care instead of trying to bash other companies and belittle him at the same time?
dbrand rocks, have ordered multiple times from them, never anything but perfection. I have the dragon skin on my note 8 right now. Also have the black carbon fiber on my S7E. Ordering more for my girls V30 today.
Also search xda for a killer price on a special package, I think it is 2 for one or something. They might still honor it, but if I remember right you have to use the link from xda to get it.

I can see having a bad day but that is a **** move. I would be lying if I said I won't remember this interaction in the future when looking at skins.
Looking at this objectively, I can see where it looks like he was being a bit hasty to resolve whatever issue was at hand. Can you blame him? The whole thread harped on how slow they were supposedly to ship out skins etc. From what I read, he was trying to be somewhat helpful. Everyone needs to stop jumping off the deep end and assuming he's an jerk. Have faith LoL. Don't see anyone on this post with any bad first hand experiences.
I've bought a few slickwraps skins over the years with ZERO issues..
Lighten up, its only a phone skin, its not life or death..

It does feel a little thinner and more flexible; the crosshatch on the back of the Decal Girl skin is thinner than the Dbrand. However, I've had no issues with either being durable. The Decal Girl skin on my Note 2 is still there, in fact, and has stayed put and worn well. Only thing I ever make sure of now is using a hair dryer on low to heat the corners down, and I did the same with the Dbrand on my other phone, otherwise the corners don't always stay down and mold to stick when heated.
I've ordered about half a dozen times from Slickwraps and had had no issues, great skins and quick delivery considering I'm in the UK. However, I ordered a few more skins in their Halloween sale this year and after paying/receiving confirmation of my order, I heard nothing else for five weeks. Considering my previous experiences I did actually contact them after one and then two weeks for an update but got nowhere. Eventually at the fifth week, I emailed and asked for a refund. About five days later I got a very rude email from one of their representatives saying they'd cancelled my order but reluctantly because I should've requested it within two hours of making my original order. How on earth would I have known at that point that I'd have to wait over a month and still be no further with my order, other than them having taken my money? It's ridiculous and not customer friendly at all. I did get my refund though, so was squared in the end but took nearly seven weeks in total for nothing but hassle.
On probability, if they had just apologised and held their hands up to being overwhelmed with orders, I would normally give a company another go as I'd had many more positive experiences with them than negative; but as of the result of the exchange I had with their rep and their terrible attitude towards me as a returning customer, I personally won't use them again now. Another thing I'll add is never pay full price for their skins, it doesn't seem like a month can pass between them have a sale/offer with 30/40/50% off, so be a little patient and your money can go a lot further if you choose to use them (or you might suggest their products are overpriced in the first place if they're willing to discount so frequently).
Personally I now use xtremeskins.co.uk which has excellent quality skins (at least as good as any others I've used over the years) and after three orders are very well priced (the cheapest I've used) and have always delivered within a couple days of order to me. Their range is limited compared to Slickwraps, but still plenty of choice for my tastes.

Shady? Happy to help you immediately cancel/refund your order.
We've been a huge supporter on XDA for years. Dbrand? Pretty sure they take the cake for poor reviews. https://www.trustpilot.com/review/dbrand.com

I have actually ordered several times from both Slickwraps ans DBrand. Never had an issue with either company. Fast shipping from both (though DBrands has always been faster than SW), and quality products.
However, after reading your posts here, @slickwraps, I will move all my business to DBrands. I find it interesting and very telling that you felt it necessary to disparage a competitor rather than standing on your own merits. And your hostility and rudeness to a new customer her on XDA, who you claim to support, is unacceptable. Bad day or not. Shows how very little you care about customer service.

Agreed!
My lord, people are super sensitive here. I didn't see any "disparagement" to anyone here, in fact he offered personal help for his order. Sure his wording left much to be desired, but the hurt feelings over this is just humorous. Of course you are free to order from whomever you like.

@slickwraps immediately started disparaging a competitor, DBrand in their reply. There was no need for that. If SlickWraps is so great, then they don't need to post negative comments about their competitors. SlickWraps product and customer sercice SHOULD speak for itself.
As far as their reply to the OP, it did come across as rude, but tone is lost in text. Maybe they meant well. I would have rather they replied with something along the lines of explaining they are determined to make the OP happy and will be sure to ship ASAP. Offering to cancel and insulting a competitor all because the OP expressed a concern seems extreme.
I also not that @slickwraps has not returned to this thread to apologize or offer an explanation or do anything..at all...to calm the feelings here. Maybe they don't need the business and don't care about lost business. So be it. If I owned a business and felt my customers were unhappy or were insulted by something I said, I would do my best to make amends. Especially in a community that can make or break my business, a community I claim to support.
But, it none of my business how SlickWraps treats their custoner base. And my business is no longer SlickWraps' business. A simple apology would have prevented them losong customers here.
Why wouldn't I buy somewhere else where I can get equal or better quality, competitive pricing, and a business who treats their customers like they actually WANT their business.
Of course, you can also spend your money wherever you like.
I rest my case
