Best Skins Ever? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Hey All,
I just picked up my new EVO and want to protect this baby. Currently, Best Skins Ever is having a buy one get one free sale and I was wondering what your thoughts were on the front skin fitting from a ONE X? In other words, will a screen protector made for the HTC One X fit on the EVO LTE. Right now, BSE does not stock any protectors for the EVO LTE, only for the variants of the ONE X

I don't think there the same. May be close enough to fit OK. It looks like the One X is rounded at the corners of the screen, where ours is a right angle. I wish BSE had ones for the Evo LTE. I would love to pick up a couple more to have for spares. I had the same one from BSE on my OG EVO for a year and a half. Still looked good.
I went with the XO skins for now and it was perfect. No orange peel at all. Not that the orange peel really ever bothered me before. They were the only ones shipping when I preordered.

Suggestions - EVO 3D Protection

So...just got the EVO 3D like many other today...
I need a good screen protector either from Amazon or Best Buy ASAP. Not sure what brands are the best or if there's a good one out for the E3D as of yet.
Next, looking for a holster (case and belt clip) that can securely hold me over until the ballistic cases are out. I'm not keeping this thing in my pocket where it could get inadvertently scratched.
Looking for best suggestions!
Best answers get thanks!

I'm considering TPU until Ballistic.
Well as far as the screen protector goes I'm a huge Bodyguardz fan. But as of now that does no one any good as they are taking their sweet time getting this to the market. Was hoping to have it here before I had the phone.
As for the case I'll be keeping an eye on this thread. I love the sexy design and look of this phone so I would love to keep it naked, but the thought of it not looking that way a year from now makes me sad, so I may put some protection on it.
I see a few decent looking screen protectors on Amazon but I have no idea if they are of good quality. Any word on if Radio Shack or Best Buy are actively selling accessories yet? Or not until Friday? - Soooo worried about damaging this thing.
I've gotten dependent on my Blackberry holster so I feel like my phone is insanely exposed without it.
Zagg Invisible Shield
Just an FYI.
Best Buy and the Sprint store don't have the shields for the EVO 3D as of today, at least my local stores. But Radio Shack claims to have a couple when I called. I'm not sure if its just the screen protector or the full body shield.
just bought this... http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-messenger-side-case-with-belt-clip.html
im a huge fan of invisible shield by zagg. had it on my hero since day 1, my evo since day 1 (did have to replace it once but it was covered under that LIFETIME warranty), and I will have my invisible shield already on my 3D before I pick it up in the AM

They are mixing up the evo 4g with the 3d because Zagg has NOT made a shield of any kind for the 3d
Love how zagg looks hate how tacky it feels. Their replacement and warranty is absolutely the best though. They are a top notch company in my book.

Not true, Best Buy already has them. Both regular and Anti-Smudge/Anti-Glare.

There is also the Car mount kit, but it is for the ONE X and I doubt the casing of the EVO 4G LTE and One X are the same, thus making the kit unusable for the EVO 4G LTE.
Would like to replace the top back part to match the matte finish on the bottom.
Hopefully someone makes a replacement.

I am curious if anyone knows how long it takes before or after a device comes out for SGP Steinheil to come out with their screen protectors. I am currently awaiting an email reply, however It's probably not going to be greatly informative.
I must vouch, my SGP Steinheil Ultra Crystal screen protector for my OG evo has lasted 11 months so far, and I still have 1 more left in the packaging.
Are there any other brands comparable to SGP? I've had one from the sprint store, some from Seidio, both didn't last long.
Edit: I realize they have an HTC One X screen protector. Are both 4.7" screens identical?

Sure these accessories are compatible with the sprint version of one X? For some reason, they are saying that they are incompatible....

For the One X and White Evo Fans :)

I've always wished that the One X could have come to Sprint instead of the Evo (blasphemy I know... ). The Sense 4.0 interface looks much better with the black buttons and white edging and back. And personally I think the white Evo looks like crap with the white faceplate on the front with the dark Sense UI. So I found this case on Amazon and now I have the best of both worlds The Android logos inlaid on the back give it a good soft touch feel and all the buttons are easy to get too.

I have this case, and while I love it I only used it for 5 days. It gets stained very easily and nothing that I have found will restore it back to white. Tried manic eraser, alcohol, nail polish remover, bar-keepers friend, bleach.... So if you find something that works, please post it. I ended up breaking down and buying a different one on eBay last night.

I've got a green one, I can at least vouch for the quality. Everything about this case fits perfectly and tight.
The only issue I have is that some of my USB cable ends(Old BB Cables mainly) are a little thick for the cut out and they don't have a satisfying "Click" when you plug them in, this causes them to fall out relativly easily when you move the phone around while its connected.
My stock HTC cable, MonoPrice, and a few Sammy cables I have are perfect though.
Mine is still white after a week.. Not completely pure white but enough to keep me happy

Sprint had a white body glove case at the store. White with a bit of grey thrown on the sides as rubber grip. Not bad looking but makes the phone considerably larger.
I bought the black version of this case just a few minutes ago.
Also there's this other white one in eBay for less than 3 bucks.
I have an Otterbox commuter but..
I bought the black one though since it is just like the one I have for my Motorola Photon and I don't want to break or modify my otterbox just to be able to use the iBolt Car Dock..
These cases are very nice and durable and also the best is that they're cheap.
(It takes 2 weeks to be delivered cause they are sent from china) but shipping is free!
check it out!

[Q] AT&T HTC One X+ - What case to get ?

I been trying to decide on a case to get for my phone, i also herd there are issues with some cases with AT&T LTE? These cases are One X.. which is the same size as one x+? I herd the international ones are smaller ?
These are my choices so far:
The less bulky:

http://www.seidioonline.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=CSR3HTNXLK-BK

the bulky:

http://www.otterbox.com/HTC-One-X-C...4-83100_color=20&start=2&cgid=htc-one-x-cases
something different:
http://ion-factory.com/xforce.php
I would like to have a case that protects my phone but also does not make it any more larger than it already is, i had the commuter otterbox on my last phone and it was bulky but my phone was atrix 4g so it was just the right size, the htc one x+ is big in my hands by itself. I do drop and ding my phone a bunch while i work or do outdoor activities, but not too extreme.

I had an online chat with a Seidio rep about the One X+ and the Surface case - they told me that neither the AT&T/LTE case or the International case will work. I am skeptical of that claim, so I am ordering one of each (w/o kickstand) to see which works better. I should have them next Tuesday.
Edit: Returned my phone today (last day of my 14 day return window) due to the bluetooth issue, so I will still have the cases on Tuesday, but won't be able to test them. If anyone is in the PDX area and wants to try (or buy?) them, let me know, otherwise they will be going back. FYI, the International version of the Seidio Surface case with holster in red or blue is less than $11 at Amazon, $50 at Seidio and $25+ for the AT&T version at Amazon, so very good deals.
im rocking this case, good luck breaking your phone in this case one piece design and its a sexy looking case, fitment is 100% perfect on att one x plus i paid $18 on amazon normally $35 at At&t
I got the case mate barely there. It looks amazing!
Just ordered a casemate, for now. Let me know if anyone has any of the other cases i mentioned, i am still curious.
I have the otterbox and find its not as bulky as some other cases and it provides really good protection as well.

Ghost Armor on HOX+

Hi All,
Has anyone installed a Ghost Armor skin for the back of a HOX+? I'm not sure if the new soft back will adhere.
Thanks!
I'm interested in this too.
I feel like a company wouldn't sell it of it wouldn't adhear and IF it didn't I would assume a refund would be the next step lol. But u know what assumeing does
Sent from my HTC One X+ using XDA Premium HD app
I don't know about the Ghost Armor but I will tell you that I got an Armor Suit carbon fiber skin for my X+ and it wouldn't stick very well. In fact trying to take it off it ripped and the HTC emblem on the back completely tore off. Like it was cut. Because of the carbon fiber it was thick and tough. It didn't bend around the corners very well. Also it was for the OG One X (i know they are supposed to have the exact same measurements) but none of it lined up. I would have had to cut all the openings a little bit. The rubber backing on the phone wouldn't let it adhere the way it would have on a plastic or metal finished phone.
Hope that helps. Use caution when getting cases/skins made for the OG
Never Die!

I've ordered an One X+ UK GSM skin at BestSkinEver. Can take up to 5 days to deliver. Will post pictures when it arrives.
They (BSE) let you choose between One X+ GSM and OneX+ LTE (ATT). I take it the latter is a bit larger!?
