Spigen tempered glass screen protector blocks the incall sensor that turns screen off - Nexus 5X Accessories

So I applied the screen protector and everything was fine until I noticed that while Im on the phone with someone and I cant turn my screen on. The screen protector covered that sensor and I had to throw it away, along with my 12$...
Anyone had a similar problem? Maybe I applied it wrong?

You're not alone. It's been mentioned and confirmed by other users here:

contact the seller you got it from, if you bought from ebay or amazon or used paypal you should be able to get your money back. It is a know fault.

I received the updated Spigen protector today with the proper cutout for the motion sensor. It fits and works perfectly now!

I just contacted Spigen through Amazon. Hopefully I can get mine replaced with the correct cutouts

Butterfly S proper screen protector

Hi to everyone, I got my S a few days ago and I'm very satisfied. Of course I've applied a screen protector on it, but it doesn't look good, because it doesn't follow the curvature of the screen around the edges. I did make a search but no product states what I'm looking for.
Has anybody found something that will look better or even smaller protector that ends when the curve starts?
Thank you in advance.:good:
i ordered 3 screen protectors for my butterfly s and when it arrived it was like 2millimeters off which i was kinda pissed. so i contacted the buyer and explained the situation. they were nice enough to send me three new screen protector. hopefully it will cover up the 5inch display properly

I hope that the new ones will cover the full screen, if that is you want. After a thorough search I found the following site and I ordered two screen protectors. In the description it's stated: "We Custom Cut to avoid the Curved Edge, Make Sure It Won't Come Off the Curved Screen!". Three options for the BS Ultraclear screen protector, Antiglare and mirror.
I'll post again when they arrive and be applied.

Just got my HTC Butterfly S. Loving it .. but can't find any screen protector for it. Any luck from other users? Really wanted to get a fitting screen protector for this phone.
Will be getting mine this weekend. I ordered Gadgetshieldz wet install full body protector for $7 (including shipping and discount) yesterday and will see if it's any good.
any update...?

Not sure if this helps but I went through a bunch of screen protectors and all of them basically lifted on the sides of my butterfly S due to the slight curved screen. I ended up buying these Stealth Shields on eBay and basically fit perfectly. They install like Zagg and Ghost Armor screen protectors where you need to slightly wet the protector but once you squeeze out the excess liquid, it was all flat on the screen with no bubbles. It feels more like a Zagg shield than a Ghost Armor one.
So far so good after 2 weeks of use. No lifting or anything.
Hope it helps. I can't post links yet cuz I don't have enough posts. If you need the link, just PM me.

Sorry for the bad shot. It was taken on an iPhone 5 lol. Just showing that it covers from top to bottom without peeling on the sides. The protector could have been lower to the edge but I'm not good at installing these. I guess it's better than nothing.

Please check if proximity sensors are working properly with the protector. I browsed all sites and didn't find any protector with cut off for proximity sensors.
Just received my GadgetShieldz yestrerday. It got proximity sensor holes. I haven't put them on yet. Probably this weekend but it looks like the whole screen and back is covered.Sorry cant post a pic.

The proximity sensors are covered up on mine and didn't realize it til u pointed it out. So far, I haven't had a single issue. Screen turns off during calls. Is there anything else to test? Auto brightness works properly but is that a different sensor?

Yes it is a different sensor right next to the light sensor, thus the oval cut in most screen protectors.

Nillkin Fresh Leather Flipcase

Just got this case in. It's the only alternative so far to the HTC Dot View case. It has a little window that shows the time/callerID portion of the Dot View function. The latch is magnetic and will activate the wake/sleep function on the phone. The fit is very good and the cutouts are precise. Great quality for only $8 shipped.
Coucou!
I've just received mine today. Happy, as it is beautiful, well maid and fit really well to my M8.
But I don't know how to display time, phone call numbers and so on, in the little plastic windows when the cover is shut... Anyone can help, please?
Coucou !
Sorry, I fix my problem with a reboot.
By the way, the display doesn't last that much... Is it possible to tune this ?
Thanks
Can anyone confirm if this case works with tempered glass screen protectors?

Hello All. Just got my new Nillkin Fresh for HTC One M8S and can't make sleep mode work.
It does not get to sleep or wake up when I close/open the cover.
Also when I wake it up with power button, it opens with normal screen layout.
No peek screen or anything like s-view.
Can anybody help?
Hello !
Which ROM are you using ? As it works perfectly with Orange stock ROM, but it stops working after a while with last CM13... I need then to reboot.

Comes with a screen protector -- questions

I got my Z3C today, and noticed that it comes with a screen protector built-in.
Is this something that I should not remove? Is the screen similarly fragile to the Xperia Z/ZL?
I had thought that they no longer put these protectors on from the Z2, so it is a little confusing, but I ordered a tempered glass protector, and I'm wondering if it would be wise to take off the screen protector currently on there and apply it, or if I should apply it on top of the current protector.
Thanks for help.
Yours arrived with the screen protector applied? My screen protector came in the box for me to apply myself.

Are you sure there was no other screen protector below that one? I think on mine there is a screen protector which I didn't apply along with one which I did.
now that i look harder, you could be right..there might be one on there...but i can't really tell for sure, and I don't want to try to peel it off to find out (in case there really is one applied). My phone is the white model, so it's really hard to see
If there is one on there, then it's applied really well. Do you notice one applied on the back as well?
When i saw the screen protector in the box, i just assumed they left it up to us to decide if we wanted a screen protector applied.
Mine didn't even come with a screen protector in the box (Belgium)

For your sake I'd say leave it on it. It won't hurt you and it probably wont give you any trouble in terms of touch responsiveness after you've added the Tempered glass protector.

Tiny crack on the bottom bezel, what to get to prevent spreading?

As the title states, I got small crack on the display. Luckily it's on the only bezel (near the camera but not on it). Not sure how it got there, but It's a part of my life now I guess. Any suggestions on accessories to help prevent this crack from worsening?
Nevermind... I'm an idiot it was my crappy tempered glass screen protector. I thought it was under the protector but it protector pretty much shattered when I tried to peel it off. I guess I'm looking for a better screen protector now.

In the past yes, but I didn't for a few days before I found this crack. I think this screen protector was just pretty bad. It had the halo around the edge, didn't cover the whole screen, and seemed to have broken in my pocket.

Man that really sucks! This phone is way too expensive to have it break so early on. I don't think there is too much advice that can be offered other than getting the best quality screen protector you can find to mask the problem so hopefully you'll just forget about it.
what is your screen protector?

Mind telling us what is the screen protector you are using on Mi Mix? I am looking for buying one...
thanks
I found an seller at Taobao that's selling replacement screen for Xiaomi MIX.
Previously i had purchase it to replace my mix screen and it fits perfectly.
It cost me roughly about $150 Singapore Dollar.

Screen Protectors

Is anyone using any kind of screen protector that can recommend? I'm looking for a glass screen protector.
Maybe we can share our experiences here, so we can find those that work better for our phones.

I was sold a glass screen protector when I bought my Mate 30 Pro 5G/512GB (from a Huawei store in Beijing), and it was a 3rd party one (ie not Huawei branded) specifically for the Mate 30 and wrapped all the way around the edge. It has a wide 'notch' on the top in the same shape/size as the notch on the screen. As you might expect, it stands up slightly from the screen, but I quite like that because it makes it easier to grip.
That screen protector already did its job - my phone fell off my phone stand that I put my phone on when I am working, and it cracked very slightly on the edge. The crack grew over a few days and eventually became very noticeable, so I replaced the screen protector.
I bought the replacement online (well, my wife did)- I think from Jd or some other Chinese online store. It was also specifically for the Mate 30 Pro and wraps all the way around. However, it is slightly different in that the notch doesn't match the notch on the screen - it covers all but one of the sensors/lenses in the screen's notch, and so it looks more like a single 'tear drop' notch in shape. This made me think this screen wasn't designed for the Mate 30 Pro, but the seller assured us it is only for the Mate 30 Pro, and, indeed, when we fitted it, it does fit and work perfectly. Also, there are two in the box, for when you break it again - mine first one is already 'scuffed' on the side
I don't have the box for the first one I had which I bought from the Huawei store, but I have the box for the second one. Photos below, in case it helps anyone find one online.
The one I bought at the Huawei store was 199RMB, while the replacement(s) were 70RMB for two. I suppose the Huawei one might be better somehow, but I can't tell, so don't buy from a Huawei store
I see there are many available on Amazon, some even cheaper than in China:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=huawei...reen+protector&i=electronics&ref=nb_sb_noss_1
I should also mention that I have the screen protector fitted in addition to the phone protector that comes with the phone, and the fit well together.

I don't think glass screen protectors would fit well on the curved screen phones and Mate 30 Pro has the most curved display. Instead of glass you can go with normal screen protectors they fit precisely for my S10 I have been using the gadgetshieldz clear protector which even works with in display fingerprint sensor. Here is a link if you into normal screen protectors https://www.gadgetshieldz.com/huawei-mate-30-pro-screen-protector.html

IMO, they do fit very nicely on the curved screen.

I have found my second screen protector has developed a crack, again on the top right. I guess it's small enough to last a while yet, before it needs to be replaced, but it is clear to me these things are 'consumable'. In this case I don't remember what event might have caused it.
I wonder if the extra curve around the edge causes the protector to be especially vulnerable, compared to other screens. It's the first one I have had.
One other thing, iinm this phone uses a 'speaker' built into the display - so the screen essentially vibrates. I wonder if it is only used when making a phone call, but the screen protector surely obscures the sound from this 'speaker'. I can't say I've noticed any problem, but I don't receive a lot of calls, and tend to use the speaker phone so I don't have to put it up to my ear.
What do you think?
It's best to prevent the screen from breaking.
I have been using Protectionfilms24.com for many years for my screen protectors. Great service and fast delivery, free in Europe. This is the Mate 30 Pro protectors I have as well as a camera lens protector.
Wet apply ones work great

TBH I will probably go with OnePlus 8 Pro(when it comes out) or with the Oppo Find X2 Pro. It seems that too many apps(not even related to google) require Google services and I am not comfortable with the current workarounds.
I bought this, and it fits perfectly! Never seen a better Screenprotector.

Hi there, yes, the screen protector protected the screen. It didn't fall, but I accidentally banged it against the side of the bath. The corner of the screen protector shattered and stayed in place, absolutely no damage to the screen. I have since ordered a second set as when I was replacing the first breakage, my second screen protector fell on the ground and cracked. I got the second set and it is protecting my phone the very best. i have the original Huawei cover for my Mate 30 and it fits perfectly with the screen protector. I highly recommend this brand.
