Re: Ghost Armor Does not Fit right

might as well watch the videos on the ghost-armor site. It's better since they do give you a squeegee.

I was only assuming that I had to squeegee the hell out of it b/c i have a bubble. but it looks like the bubble is slowly disappearing. I dont think it will disappear fully though.

IF I did it again, I'm sure I could do it 5x faster and make it perfect.

Re: Ghost Armor Does not Fit right

I just ordered my Ghost Armor for my TP. After reading several of these types of threads I hope it fits correctly.

Re: Ghost Armor Does not Fit right

I wonder if the Zagg fits better. This protector could be a little bigger for the front, like the stock protector. This has a little gap but it fits. The stock one just fit PERFECT.

Re: Ghost Armor Does not Fit right

Well, as I sit here my TP is turned off, battery removed, and the Ghost Armor is setting into place while I wait a few hours for safety before powering it back on.

Applying it took me the better part of an hour and a half I'd say, and I surprised myself by doing every little piece. It wasn't easy because some of those small/thin strip pieces aren't obvious in where they should be placed!

Despite my best efforts to keep everything clean and follow the instructions, I do have two small air bubbles on the front like "eyes" on the screen, and one on the backing toward one edge. Also, a few stray marks under the guard surface. But overall for an amateur I think I did an admirable job and hopefully when it settles those bubbles might reduce or vanish (wishful thinking...?).

But as to the quality of the material and its coverage, I am even at this early stage VERY impressed. It's totally clear (or "invisible" as another product calls theirs--on the screen and controls especially you cannot see it there), smooth, and I think once it fully adheres it will be very very tough to damage any area of my TP which is covered by the Ghost Armor.

If you buy and do apply, please just make sure to keep your fingers as moist as possible with the applicator solution whenever you can to help you make the GA plastic as pliable as possible. What they say is really true--as long as not too much time has gone by you can peel whatever piece you're working on back off and try again, so don't get discouraged.

Looking forward to using my now much more tough TP and I'll follow up with a report in a day or two about how it's "permed" itself onto the device.

Update: with some crazed persistence I used my index and fingernail to work the bubbles out by pushing them repeatedly in tiny increments to the edge and out. I wasn't confident that they were going to vanish on their own, and the longer the protector adhered I thought it might become impossible. Unfortunately they left two small "trails" behind but those are preferable to the bubbles. If worse comes to worse and I can't stand how it looks I can order another and try again.

Also, the extremely thin strip for the chrome area on top of the screen was misaligned (tough one) so I just took it off permanently.

(Now that's more detail than you probably ever needed to know. I should be busting up laughing at myself by now )

Ghost Armour CDMA - Fits Sprint touch pro?

Hey all, I've been lookin at the various "armours" for my sprint touch pro. I was wondering if the "CDMA" ghost armour fits the touch pro. I know that the back of the sprint phone has a slight rise where the camera panel is and I was wondering if the cdma version of various armours account for that. Also, does anyone have the CDMA version of ghost armour or another type of body armour for the phone? How long do they last? are they hard to remove once it begins to wear down?

Yes, it fits (after they corrected a shipment issue) and I'm quite happy with it. I'll post more later today.

Re: Ghost Armor Does not Fit right

About a day later: big thumbs up for Ghost Armor.

Besides the protection it affords, it's actually made me happier with my phone for a reason I didn't expect--the phone's surface (especially the all-important touch screen) feels noticeably more accurate for me because the GA material doesn't collect finger and face grease as much, making a big oily mess. I had no idea after a while how the included protector was collecting that nasty stuff and becoming overly slick, detracting from my use. Now, much less accumulates and whatever does can be wiped off in seconds.

Unless you were deliberately looking for the seams, you might have no idea it's there at all. The backing area is more "orange peel"-y but I blame the surface of the phone itself for doing that and it's not bad anyway. Although I don't have any experience with other after-market protectors like some of you, this stuff is really tough, smooth and non-noticeable. Just take your time applying and I think you'll be satisfied with it.
