I'll start this thread in the hope that there'll be some good news soon.
I got my Touch Cruise on Friday and the device is absolutely fantastic but there is one huge problem with it. Using it either with the bare screen or with the screen protector supplied in the box, the smudges that get onto the screen are a real issue. It's not a case of cleaning it every day when you get home, it really is a case of pulling out a perfectly clean device, flicking up the cube to fire up the calculator, doing 60 seconds of calculations and then putting it away and even after that the screen is covered with smudges to an extent that bugs me. The saving grace is that, if a good screen protector can help solve this problem, then it's easy to apply as an aftermarket solution.
Do other people see the issue to the extent I do? (And my hands are actually fairly dry, I often have issues getting through fingerprint recognition at US immigration because there isn't enough grease on my fingertips.)
I'm told that Brando are working on a protector and I just had a quick play with my old O2 XDA Orbit which has a good screen protector on it (not a Brando but one of their big competitors whose name I forget but is another make that people tend to recommend) and it seemed to me that it was picking up far less muck than my TC one so maybe Brando or someone can ride to the rescue on this one.

There is another thread about screen protectors here.
I use the supplied one without any problems different from any protector I have used. Just get the Veripart screen cleaner and clean your screen with it about once a week. looks like it leaves a coating on the screen. I am not sure about that, but my screen is shiny and nice
By the way, how can you get smuges from a non-greay finger

Ah. Thanks for that. I was trying to do the right thing by posting into the "Accessories" sub-forum so that is where I looked for a previous thread but I did just find the other thread in the main Polaris forum, funnily enough not by looking through the forums but because that thread is the second hit on Google when I did a global search for "veripart screen cleaner" as a result of your reply. I'll definitely try Veripart.
Re: "how can you get smuges from a non-greay finger", I guess they're not totally non-greasy, just less greasy than average .
I'll still get a new screen protector for my TC though because the one that came with my device seems to have a little bit of adhesive missing right down in the bottom left corner, luckily only on the bit that covers the screen surround but, because it won't stick down, it makes it look as if there is a water stain on the device. I also find that the factory screen protector does dull the sensitivity of the screen a bit.

I have the same problem with the supplied screen protector.
I found out that Brando will come out with two types of screen proctectors of which on is anti-glare. That's the one I want to try.
Just ordered this one:
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...em=160199157845&_trksid=p3984.cTODAY.m238.lVI
If you don't know German, look at the picture depicting the structure of the material. Seems to be nice - anti-fingerprint, anti-glare, etc. Will report here as soon as I get it. There is no picture of the protector but I strongly hope it will cover the whole surface and not just the display area.

It looks very interesting. I hope it works out for you. I'll look forward to hearing how it works.
I just experimented some more with my old (now dead) Artemis. Obviously with the device being dead all I can do is wipe my fingers and thumb around the screen with it switched off and then look at how marked it is. This is actually just fine though because the marks show up most when the device is off so the fact that the device doesn't power on isn't really an issue for these tests!
Anyway, I found the email confirmation for when I first placed the order and it was a Martin Fields Overlay Plus Screen Protector and my experiments above confirm in my mind that a good screen protector does make a huge difference as far as fingermarks are concerned, my old Artemis with the Martin Fields protector seems to pick up maybe 10% of the fingerprints compared to the in-the-box HTC protector on my Touch Cruise under about the same amount of finger dragging on each screen.

Brando is now selling the antiglare screen protectors. Emailed them and they said that they cover the whole face, not just the touch screen portion. You can get them here:
http://shop.brando.com.hk/prod_detail.php?prod_id=02323&dept_id=&cat_id=0019

No, I'm not buying before I see it how it looks like. As I wrote above, I ordered one from eBay. It is 0.5mm more narrow than the screen area. But the worst is, there's not a hole in the surface for the secondary camera - there's a whole area cut out, like with scissors. Otherwise, the surface seems pretty diffuse. I haven't tried it yet, because if I remove and ruin my current protector and I don't like the new one, I won't have any
So I'm waiting for responses/pics from other protectors
Brando's version is unfortunately like the one ingenious got off of eBay - with the large cutout vs. individual holes. Can't imagine it would have been that hard to cut them properly I'd prefer Brando quality with HTC fit.

I bought one from Brando's for my Orbit 2.
Quality is top as usual.
But:
I think they do the large cutout to make them fit to both, the cruise and the orbit 2.
The result is: You can use them for both device, but they do fit perfect neither for the polaris nor for the orbit 2.
Especially with the orbit 2 there is a large gap at the top of the protected area.
So I have to say, I was used to get better quality from brando's
JueLue
Shame, shame... Hopefully they will make them better at some point. Now I don't want to put mine because I'm afraid that if I don't like it, I won't be able to put the original one again
as i said in the other post..
I ordered both versions of the regular screen protectors from DuraSec. (not the liquid one)
I will post some photos and comments when i get them.

Thanks. Look forward to your post as my standard protectors's already looking suspect.
I ordered the more expensive ("self-healing") protector from Durasec and found it had the same problem as the Brando anti-glare protector: it refracts the light coming from the touchscreen, giving the pixels a broken-up, rainbow effect. Not nice or useful.
Guess I'm going to buy some more HTC ones, even though I ended up crumpling the first one out of frustration (bubbles, dust, etc).

I've first put the one delivered by HTC with the Polaris. Except the fact that the sticker perfectly match with the Polaris Form, it need to be cleaned at least 50x per day..
I've finally buy a set of universal screen protector. Of course you've to cut it by yourself, but the quality is pretty excellent and the price is really competitive (5 pieces for a price less than for 1 brando).

Why the HTC ones rather than the Brando Ultraclear? The thing I hate about the HTC protector is that it is no better than a bare screen as far as fingerprints are concerned. There is a thread running in the main Polaris forum (although a request has been made to the moderators to move it here) where other people are confirming how awful the HTC protector is re fingerpriints and also that the Brando UltraClear, although not as good as the AntiGlare regarding resistance to fingerprints, is a definite improvement on the HTC protector.
I confess that I'm still using the HTC protector but that's because I put it on my device immediately and now it's on I'm waiting a bit to decide what to replace it with. I don't like the Brando cutout but I think if pushed now I'd probably buy one of each Brando and see if I could live with the optical distortions of the AntiGlare and, if not, then use the UltraClear.
- Julian
P.S. I share your frustration re fitting these things; one of my least favorite activities.
I didn't try the Brando 'ultraclear' one -- I guess because I used one of these on a PDA years ago and found it to be 'ultraglare'. If I were sitting anywhere near sunlight, the screen became a mirror.
I suppose in the time since that's just become normal, as screens like the Touch Cruise are very shiny.
Looking at the various posts I think I'll go with the Brando UltraClear...
10$ + 3$ shipping is not so expensive (let's hope it will not be trapped by customs, in France that's pretty expensive even for a 10$ order).
Anyone aware about a way to get them from a European reseller instead of ordering directly to Brando in HK?
Thanks
DuraSec protectors
Hello all....
as i promised earlier i would report back once i got my DuraSec protectors and let you know how they are.
i just got them last night, so i ripped my HTC OEM one off, and put the cheaper "ClearTec" one on. on first impression, it is a slight bit TOO thin, as it is quite hard to get on without flipping and flopping around. Which in the end causes many small bubbles.
After some fiddling, i have it on looking semi-OK, and it doesnt mess with the screen clarity, nor refract light in any strange way that i can tell.
i do have a feeling that it will not last very long... but then again they market it as a temp. protector.
i will get back when i use the "HighTec".....
This is a possible way to improve the standard HTC screen protector which I'm pretty happy with except for one big issue, it offers absolutely no additional resistance against getting fingerprints all over the screen when not using the stylus and this is a big frustration for me.
Recently I decided to clean my protector using regular window cleaner that you can buy in supermarkets (I'm in the UK so I used "Non smear Windolene for glass and shiny surfaces"). I now only bother to wipe down the screen with a cloth every few days rather than after every few minutes of use which is what I had to do before (and yes, I do wash my hands very regularly!).
It's probably partly due to the fact that I've got better at remembering to try to use the fingernail side of my fingers rather than my fingertips but I think that a large part of it is due to the cleaner leaving some sort of coating because even when I deliberately do a few swipes with my thumb, which before would have left marks after even a single swipe, it is now pretty clear.
I didn't spray the cleaner straight onto the device by the way, that just seemed too risky, so I sprayed it onto a paper kitchen towel and then used that to apply the cleaner onto the screen.
For me I think this has improved things sufficiently that I might well just stay with the supplied protector.
- Julian
Hey guys, please vote here - who use screen protector with own TP2
And those who use, please describe here who is the manufacturer of your screen protector and your experience, how good is it for you.
Most recent HTC devices have come with pretty good screen protectors included in the box. I didn't use a screen protector on my first device, and I'm not making that mistake again.
anyone knows why they don't install it from the factory?
I voted and i own an x1. I use.
I've seen threads like this before and I've always wondered why there is even a debate on this topic. Why would anyone not use a screen protector?
My theory: The next person you see using a touch screen device with no screen protector, probably doesn't use one because he messed it up when applying it on the device.

well the picture quality without it is much better, isn't it? I have now 3M protector on my HTC herald, and it doesn't look as clean as without it.
You should use the Crystal Clear type. You sometimes don't even noticed that it's being installed.

That's true, but when you use your device for some months without any protector, it will never be so clear as with a screenprotector (that you can replace when needed )
Ranney
Based on what I read in the accessories forum, I decided to try a Martin Fields one. Had it on for 2 days now - so far, so good. The one that came with the phone kept peeling off at the bottom edge near the buttons.
I didn't bother with my Vario III, as the ones I tried seriously affected the screen responsivness. Of course it got a key scratch in the first 3 months:-(
On my TP2 I installed the supplied one, and will get a Martin Fields one.
However I've got to return the unit (dodgy radio), so it is vital not to scratch it before returning it!
I messed upp my original screen protector
So i bought the Copter screenprotector from Skalshop.se it's a bit rubbery, but other than that it works good. It came with some liquid spray for aplying the protection. A bit tricky to apply but worked good in the end.
Martin Fields - where from you guys are buying them? I don't see them at ebay for TP2
also - are they really the BEST? or they just have the highest price?
The store from which I bought my TP2 gave me another screen protector - I haven't used the one that came with the device. Probably cost them less than US$1-2 to buy in bulk - I never pay more than US$8 for one retail
Using the one supplied with the evice and it works perfetly (I was against screen protetors when I had a Hermes, but with TP I can barely see it)
I once had a device and when I applied the screen protector I hated it. It improved sunlight visibility by refracting the light, unfortunately this made it harder to read fine print on the screen. I also couldn't remove the protector and was stuck with it. Another one I had tried before that one which was removable, reduced sensitivity too much.
Those are reasons not use one. But as long as the available protectors can be removed in case you don't like them, then it's worth trying them out. That way you don't risk your screen unecessarily.

That's right! I use it and it's better than the one that HTC gives us: I have a new one because it was removed while in my pocket.. But now I'm happier!
I´m using touchscreen phones for many years (since my first PALM ) and i´ve noticed that the new screens are much more resistent. I think that you loose quality if you use a screen protector.
Just don´t put your phone in the same pocket that coins, keys,... and use it´s cover when putting it in a bag.
one other advantage with a phone like this should you choose not to use a screen protector is that since the phone has such a large screen and it's so touch optimized you won't get as much wear and tear on the common points of contact (like the "e" on the onscreen keyboard).
I use Proporta Screen Protectors. After I had used then in my Asus P535 I do not want another brand. They protect very well the screen, they were washable and also doesn't change too much the sensation of the touch with the pen or even with fingers.
I dont use one for a few reasons. I dont put my TP2 in any pocket with coins etc. I am pretty careful with it.
Although most importantly im insured on it, accidental damage w/ no excess to when the time comes it gets a bit dodgy ill smash it up and get a new one. If ive still got the TP2 when my contract runs out/upgrade ill probably wap a screen protector on then.
Has anyone tried the mirror screen protectors?
I just ordered http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170375352638 and was wondering if they make it hard to see the screen at all.
I didn't buy from the same person you did but the ones I got from eBay do make the screen hard to see. In addition, the mirroring seems to change the colors of the display slightly. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone (at least the ones I have). Let us know how yours work out, maybe they will work as advertised.
They all suck. I had some for my touch pro and iphone. They are OK indoors but forget about in the car or oustide, the sunlight makes them useless. I would try some of those ultra clear ones or the anti fingerprint/anti glare.
i got one and it was awful with the g1 screen i couldnt see jack sh*t but worked fine with my samsung m880. luckily my seller was awesome and he sent me 1 matte and 2 clear ones for free
Hello everyone, i've seen there are a lot films for the screen.
I need to replace it, but as far as i've seen, HTC does one which comes 9.9€;
Should i take it??
Or should i go for the ebay's one?

I suggest to get the cheapest on. I,ve ordered alot of screen protector for my phones and they are all about the same thing.
I've ordered those one at 0.99$ from China and do the Job #1. I change it as soon as the shiny finis is gone (after 3-4 month)
don't get it too thik because you lose touch screen sensibility.
i was just about to buy the htc's..
I don't know which flavor phone you have, but AT&T currently has a three pack online for $5.00
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...060233&q_manufacturer=htc&q_model=prod4000225
I ordered three packs as the phone is no longer online and I am sure these will be gone soon too.
Get the AT$T ones as they are a perfect fit. I bought some off eBay and while they fit they were just slightly larger overall. This makes them not sit flat on the screen giving you a slight bubble along the edge and you can feel the edge with your finger when you slide it across. I've lifted mine inadvertently a few time because of this.

i don't get why all the others are still available. People you won't believe it!
I didn't pick any specific ebay seller. Just hit the cheapest i saw( i also bought the tv out thingy from the same seller, haven't tried that one out either)
You may read around that it darkens the screen a bit. That may well be so but no remarkably enough to stop you from using it!

All good, apart from direct sunlight. Everyphone suffers in that area, mirror screen protector sucks worse!
Honestly get the Zagg ones. I dropped my HTC Touch Pro 2 twice, while running, face DOWN, and it skidded for like 5 feet. I've got scratches on the inside of the phone, on the case, but the screen itself is perfect. Best money I ever spent.

I second the Zagg. Garanteed protection. I am done with those cheap dozen for a penny protectors that last maybe a month, bubble up, don't fit, peal off, etc, etc... Sure they are cheap, but what a waste of time...
I typically go with the full body style from Zagg to provide an almost complete protection of the phone and enhance the style. You can buy them from Zagg.com, Amazon.com or if you prefer the touchy feely you can typically get them at Best Buy. Come with an applicator spray and squeegie to ensure there are NO bubbles!
Just my 2¢...

I bought mine from Amazon. Skinomi it is. And I honestly do not like it. Way too sticky and scratches easily and peels off itself on sharp pressure point.

The Skinomi has the wet installation method. I like the installation method, but you have to be patient because it will move very easily until it dries. It also took about a day for some of the imperfections to work out after install.

That's right. Even with its highest rating, it's kinda like looking through blown glass jar.
Real issue with this watch is that it has a curved and rounded glass so typical PET film won't adhere properly unless carefully pre-formed with a proper shape. Urethane films(Skinomi and etc) are known for its bad touch feedback ,sticky feel and uneven surface. Tempered glass one is almost impossible to make for a curved and rounded surface. So, your option is very very limited.
Yeah, and coming from a Moto 360, the few glass screens I could get for it were pretty bad. The glass screens rose up above the watch face so they had a tendency to catch corners easier. (You'd be surprised at how high 2.5-3mm can be on a watch) They also don't seem to hold up as well over time as the 3 that I tried for the Moto 360 (all different brands) all nicked or shattered.
There's few high rated ones, so I tried the Urethane film that Skinomi has. I don't like the sticky feel, or the slightly uneven surface as DDz_1888 noted, however, in practice, with banging my wrist on walls or the like, it does hold up better to abuse, so there's that.
All in all, I'm okay with the Urethane film from Skinomi as it really does hold up better to abuse. Would've liked a glass version as well to try, but I can see why there isn't one available.
As an aside, my only annoyance is that finding accessories for this watch is a lot more irritating than the 360.
Can't find a dedicated black band, only ones I find on Amazon end up being a dark gunmetal.
Can't find as many good square watch faces, as most of the ones I find are round
Can't even get a spare charger on Amazon, as the one I've ordered still hasn't shipped.
I orderd mine from amazon. They shipped from germany to canada in a week. And there petty thick. And good price since no Chinese shipping Times

Appreciated!
It's not as if it doesn't have some nice presets. It does, and it's a nice app. However, no matter how many nice ones I find for the square face, there's probably at least 10 round ones out there for every 1 I find that I like.
Honestly, It is being a bit picky. But that's simply how the comparisons work out. All in all though, I still prefer and like the Zenwatch over my 360. Better performance, the speakerphone actually does get some use every so often, (so that's actually a surprisingly nice bonus) and overall, a better value for the $.
I purchased the Armorsuit Shield but an reluctant to install it because I am concerned that the added Shield, even thought it may protect my screen, may also create the need to increase the brightness so daylight visibility. Currently, without this, I am find with the brightness set at 3.
For those that have added a screen protector, did it dull the brightness or did it not have any effect?
Just installed it and it was easy. My concern regarding brightness being reduced was eliminated after taking it out into the sunny day and still being able to read the face. Great Product!

The round faces will work, the numbers will be in a circle though rather than pushed out to the corners. Two screenshots of pujie app showing the way a round is displayed compared to a square face.
I used a face from the Pujie app and enlarged the font and used a black font with a white background which has been working for me in the daylight. If anyone has a better color combination for outdoor reading please let me know.
Began using the WatchMaker Premium and it is great since I was able to import other faces that I saw online. Loads of customization and real easy to use. Now using a black background with white letters having a red outline. Neat!
I have been using the Armorsuit Shield, bought from Amazon, and it has been great in protecting my watch. After a few months the upper left corner came up and after writing about that to the Armorsuit, they sent me a replacement. Have reinstalled it and it appears to be fine. My watch is a flat surface so it was easy to apply the shield. My concern regarding loss of light to the screen proved not to be an issue.
