you're not supposed to use cellophane tape like that.

when u start pasting, always get ready

1) credit card to push out bubbles
2) cellophane tape.

1) take out the protectve plastic a bit and start placing the screen protector on your phone, use credit card to flatten the screen protector.
2) as u flatten it the protective plastic should come out slowly as u push.
3) got dust, stop, go backwards a it, drop credit card, and just use it to take the dust away. dun take out screen protector fully.
4) take back credit card and continue pushing. push push push till the screen protector all done.

ive stuck several dozen SP this way for myself, mom dad uncle aunty sister gf friend etc all never had problems.

at the end im always sweating cuz air cond and fan off

if you're telling me estoc is smooth to glide like the ultra optic and yet clarity with ultraoleophobic (means glossy) im sold! but then i read what u said about oil effect and suddenly im not so interested. the oil thing is basic screen protector 101 flaw. if you are good u should not have the oil effect. full stop. especially for a supposedly premium screen protector. cuz its so basic 101. i cant stand them and would expect them from el cheapo screen protector (even el cheapo scholl screen protector 15 bucks no oil effect =.=)

hmm.gif i read and re-read and i still dont understand what you mean by oil effect lol. if you mean the oil stains that you can see from all the clear sp even in oleophobic after 2 weeks, then nope they dont have, it'll be different, oil stains in matte is different compared to clear, all i can say is, its like matte, you wont be seeing the oil all over the screen like in clear sp. if you used sgp optics, then you should know what i mean by oil stains, its the same just alot easier to remove.

neither. badly made screen protector have a defect in the plastic itself. under white light when viewed at an angle u will be able to see as if the whole screen full of newton rings.

imagine like u spilt car oil on your screen, all the swirly swirly rainbow colours? yep. like that.

long time ago these were quite common in majority of cheap SP even one time CAPDASE had this issue. CAPDASE actually recalled their entire batch of SP due to this issue, and offered refund for people who bought and had the issue.

its really unacceptable in this day and age.

hahas i hated my sgp oleophobic, within 2 weeks its full of fingerprints ad, useless junk. i wish i could do a review and snap pictures to show you guys how good is the estoc+ , sadly i couldt get a good enoguh camera to show it.

here's a quick review:
the clarity is 99% the same as oleophobic, heck i cant even notice any difference, its like i'm putting on a clear screen protector.

matte patterns is so small, i couldnt notice them unless i look at the screen really close and try to focus. Even then i wonder what i'm seeing is the amoled pixel of the screen or the matte pattern, should have borrowed my sis's s2 to compare  doh.gif

fingerprints : NONE, most is a few horizontal lines that is barely visible unless you use a lamp and shine on the screen and check it nicely, just use microfibre cloth, wipe it once and it'll be gone.

oil, clean need use micro fibre a few scrubs disappear ad.

bad thing is can see rainbowish effect on the protector like soap bubbles when it reflects a very bright light when the screen if off, if screen on no problem.


sliding fingers on the screen will produce a slight zipping sound, doesnt bother me tho.

i wonder if ther's someone who used both then can give us a better comparison.
How about other estoc users, what you feel?
as for me, i'm damn satisfied!  biggrin.gif
*
if it was me, after buying such an expensive screen protector got the basic plastic defect, i sure demand full refund/replacement. but its likely the entire batch problem. cuz its not like "oh this SP is damage" but the entire chemical mix itself got issue, so the entire batch is made from the same chemical mix. maybe diff batch will be better.

but like i said, totally unacceptable in any SP that costs more than RM 15

oh that! you can only see it if you take a lamp and put close to the sp then you can see it thru the reflection of the lamp's bulb, if normal use it wont appear, even if you're holding it in a bright room, it'll just reflect the image like a smooth mirror. ohwell i'm not interested in convincing u to buy it, ur money, i hear optics is good but after oleophobic, nah i'm not touching sgp sps for now, instead this really satisfies me alot ^^
*
the fact is there shouldnt have this defect. not in such a "premium" screen protector. If u see SGP they even proudly announce dont have oil stain effect in all their Ultra series.

its really hideous and ugly. seriously. how can u say "its clear and pretty" when its got petrol oil stains on it lol. these stains also will actually affect the light transmittance from the LCD screen and prolonged visual contact can cause slight headache for some people.


@shizuru, i asked sshizuru help me buy extended battery but i wanted white sad.gif nevermind i going UK soon for holidays try to find there lol.

shizuru went with bf shopping?

OK this may be a n00b question but i have read through page 1 already and find no answer.

I got myself AP set SGS2 with the info below:
PDA: I9100UHKI2
PHONE: I9100UHKI1
CSC:I9100TPAKI2

I wanna root but from the xda page the insecure kernel for UHKI is not listed. Can i use other Kernel instead?

lyours is KI2

your sgs2 is G or non G version?

NO PIRACY DISCUSSION! SUPPORT YOUR DEVS! piracy kills development. u save a few bucks but u are bringing about the demise of the android system. pay now, so that the system grows, more third party apps come about and in the end the consumer profits from development!
