I use the stock screen protector that came in the box. Has worked well for me.

I use bestskinsever its pretty much the exact same thing as invivibleshield except for 10 bucks you get full body coverage instead of 20 just for the screen.
And yes if you want a super smooth slick cover stay away from BSE and IS cause they do have a kinda tacky feel but I LOVE it on the battery cover. It makes it feel kinda grippy and makes it look really shiney. And after a couple weeks they do get less tacky feeling but it never completly goes away.
BSE also has AWESOME customer service. it took 2 days to get my first one and after I installed it it had a rough lookin spot in the hardware button cover (May have been a fingerprint from my install?)
So I emailed them and told them about it nicely, not really overly caring if they did anything about and 2 days later there was a total brand new skin in the mail.

As for a cover I use this one-->

I found it for 7.99 with free shipping so you prolly can to if you look through a few pages. I only use it for work cause I leave my phone out on top of my toolbox with Pandora playing and Im afraid it will get knocked off, but for everyday use I just trust the BSE.
Be careful though, the first one I got didnt fit at all so I emailed them and complained and the 2nd one fit perfect.


AND.. Thats my opinion on the subject!

this is how i roll, back pocket=wallet, right pocket=keys and change, left pocket=htc diamond.. had my phone since October and not a scratch on it, no cases or protectors, sometimes it gets oil and sweat from my cheek n ear but nothing a quick wipe cant solve

I use these too because they are EVERYWHERE and cheap.

Where did you find a template?? Please share!

I usually stick the old one (temporarily) over the new one and cut around it. I think a template would be easier though.

That is a good idea! I use to buy the 5 pac of universals from wal-mart but they were CRAP. I was lucky to get 2 weeks outta them before they were scratched all up

im too scared to hold electronics in my back pockets... afraid to crack them cause im too stoopid to remember to take em out when im gonna sit down.. when i go swimming i have to double check my pockets after im in the water to make sure i took out my phone.. so far ive remembered before getting in, hopefully this year its just as good

Oh sorry I coulda swore they was 20 for screen and 30 for full body.
But either way, you get full coverage from Bestskinsever for about 10 bucks.
and I cant tell any difference whatsoever in the actual material.
