Why my XOSkin no so nice

Still don't know what I've done wrong with my installation. Followed all suggested steps still !@#)!@(*$)@(!*$

no problem here and XOskin is the best for me.
what's wrong or which steps wrong? show us your SP photo...

IwanAGP= no patience
go read 1st page


clean ur room, close all window n fan for 30 mins
wipe down the screen,
use electrostatic tapes to pull all micro dusts,
apply alcohol all over the screen,
put slightly big blobs of alcohol center and medium blobs at edge.
spray a nice mist of water on ur sp
then slowly lower the front camera n earpiece side on to the wet' alcohol surface.
then every time u lower, spray mist water on the screen n sp.
when completely lowered, u should be able to move it around.
then take a credit card and wrap it with microfibre cloth.
gently push from centre of screen to edges, best start from centre to top edge.
then when all complete leave to dry in somewhere warm (computer vents, bucket of rice)
patiently w8 for at least 2 hours.
if temps of warm air is 70'c then 2 hr, less then longer.
then tada! few days tome the streaks will vanish.

It's just not perfect. Streaks here and there.

I'm pretty sure I pushed them enough with squeegee to make the screen protector as smooth as possible.

Can't really get the shot. It's damn hard to take a shot that close up with the right lighting for it to show up.


There's one streak that appears. Not a deep one but it's a very long line from bottom right of my screen all the way to center left of my screen. Think that it's caused by the plastic used to hold it when I got the replacement from XOSkin. I remember seeing the plastic not being "flat" when I have it. Not sure how to describe but yea... It's not perfect.

Besides that, I got tonnes of tiny scratches on it, especially visible when the display shows full Green.

I'm sure it's NOT on the glass itself because When I "stare" at it and turn my phone side way, the scratches are like "moving" For example, if viewing it over a text. Maybe like the word "Facebook". It might be at "Fa|cebook" when viewed right from the front. Then if I rotate my phone, the scratch appear at "Faceb|ook" or something.

Get what I mean? And there's one Obvious one. Numerous tiny ones...

Another thing is that these scratches are no way to be seen on the surface of the SP with Naked eye. Only when the screen is on and with bright background.

And the weird thing is...

I got my XOSkin scratched. This scratch doesn't heal. It doesn't matter. But this scratch cannot be seen when the screen is on.

I got very very confused by these weird behaviour of the XOSkin

bolded not suppose to be done..
if there are remaining, it should be left and not over pushed.
i think while pushing u could have burn it.

Not really... I didn't push them with too much force.

And the long streak I mentioned...

I didn't push in that direction. It's like around 70 degree angle (when you place your phone upright at the bottom right of the screen. I pushed my screen protector in 90 degree or 0 degree (vertical or horizontal) only. No marks are left with that kind of angle.

And it's still not perfectly flat and won't recover if I accidentally "poke" my screen with my fingernail. Like a permanent Crater there

lol then xo bit weaker, cuz my sp took some damage
fingernail poke, sofa with stitches squish, rattan weaving marking
all just slowly disappear.
then deepest that leave a line is my mom's keys which really scratched a line but most faded.

if XOskin scratched just claim warranty then...

Not easy to claim. Need claim through FallenAngel. Already claim once. Don't want mafan him another time. And... Even if it comes another time, I'm sure things won't be done right

your photo are clear, can see the surface is not perfect. if already claimed once before, for me I also won't mafan him again for second times. I bought second XO from him to show support before. thanks to fallenangel

I'm not sure is quality issue or really skill issue. Both time I apply also same problem. I do exactly what those in videos did.

Btw, the picture is the first application before I claim for replacement.

Second picture is taken with another phone. Zoom in and you'll see those "scratches". Not as "long" as that now. It was longer when the picture is taken.

1st pic is damage of adhesive sticker, might be not enuf moisture when apply or u applied and lift the surface to realign.

2nd pic is definitely shipping problem, maybe packaging not good. mine dun have this line issue.

Should I reapply it? Although wet sticker not supposed to be reapplied

If really fail then I go back to clear SP

I never try before but I read some advise from xda before, normal dry SP cannot reapplied but wet SP can do so. maybe you can give a try

if fail then buy glass sp

once u apply and dry, u cannot reapply 1. sure fail big time...
i see mine the sp adhesive all slowly come out from the side, meaning its like suction to the screen.
it even folds down to the gaps and i also duno why but the sp got longer then before..
now it totally covers all sides, top bottom and all.

only mark is the key mark by my mom...

can reapply wet sp meh??

erm... I might get it wrong

I think is recommended not to reapply.

I don't dare to put too much liquid. Then like what you said.. I put too less. Swt... how to control???

Mine is on for just around 2 months or so. Not too long pun.

I think SGP Flex is very different from XO. XO looks a bit like jelly before apply. I see S3 SGP Flex installation video, The SGP Flex looks like a clear screen protector even before apply. Not sure what's the difference

Glass SP...

I wanted to buy this... But no white colour

i know dry 1 can use scotch tape lift and reapply...
but wet 1 im preety sure the adhesive will be damaged after it dries..
hence why we need to wet them be4 applying to properly realign..

time to spend more $$

whats in the pack


and yes, look like a clear sp, but dun feel like a clear sp, feels like latex.

subang 19 mall. maps it.
