Back Glass Protector - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anybody seen a Back Protector for the Nexus 4? I would prefer one that's not a wet-install. I want to know this because the Ringke Fusion's back will stick to wet-install protectors, and the only back protector I know of is the SGP Dual, which is way expensive.

SGP ultra dual comes with a back.

Martin Fields and Clarivue also appear to produce films for the rear but are priced similarly to SGP. Both SGP and Clarivue seem to occasionally have sales or offer discount coupons.

Nexus 4 rear protector recommendations?

After having mine for one day and really enjoying it, there are already two hairline scratches on the back, I'm fairly one of them (about 1mm long under the G under "LG") came with the phone, and the other I have no idea, as most people I've baby'd the device since I opened the packaging so there's something going on.
Regardless, it isn't really an issue but I'd like to get a rear protector to potentially stop further hairline scratches, does anyone have any recommendations as the Spigen dual protector has some awful reviews.
Cheers :good:.
Exact Armor
I spent about $7.95 for an Exact Armor case. Its not huge but has enough soft and hard protection where the back would be reasonably well protected. Any case like it would work, but its price sold me.:victory:
Spigen sgp steinheil screen protector for front and back. I love it!

Screen Protectors that work with Bumpers?

Hi all,
I am using a Poetic Bumper with a Skinomi front and back skin. There corners keep coming up with the case. Does anybody have any recommendations or have successfully had a bumper/screen protector combination that worked? Thanks.
I'm using the cheap acase screen protectors from amazon. It's 5 bucks for a pack of three. Works well for me.

SGP duals. Best screen protectors for the N4 imo.
I'm using XtremeGuard on the back. If centered properly, it won't even make contact with the bumper.
On the front I've got a dry-apply matte screen protector. Because dry-apply won't curve with the screen, it's narrower than the phone and you can clearly see that there's a screen protector, but I prefer that over the rubbery feel of the wet-apply's.

Best Skins Ever make a case optimised protector
BSE's regular protector works well with the LG bumper (they even explicitly state it's the best version for the OEM bumper on their product page). However for third party bumpers like the Poetic they seem to recommend the case optimized version instead...
I have a pair on of the BSE regular front and back on my LG bumper and can confirm there's been no peeling as well as minimal gap between the bumper and the screen protector. But it does feel rubbery and has slight orange peel. I'd probably imagine the SGP would be better quality in those two points. However, it's been stated that they make those smaller so you tend to have a bigger gap between bumper and screen protector edge.

Front & back screen protector to go with bumper?

Hi all,
I want to buy front and back screen protector to go with Google's bumper. I think to get the SGP Ultra Crystal or the ADB Just Like Glass.
Which one will be better?
Thank you

I say dbrand skins.
i'd personnally go with the SGP, its a trustable brand and with highqualit product and $13 is not much
The only brand who claims that their protectors protect from breaks is DBA, and that is very important to me.
Anyone with experience?
Amzer shatterproof can resist a full on hammer hit. Get it for the front and an invisisheild for the back. (30$ for amzer and 13$ for invisisheild on eBay)

I personally have the official bumper case and SPG ultra clear combo.
The only dislike I have is the fact that the screen protector is not edge to edge on top and bottom of the screen (about 2mm~ on each end). The same for the protector on the back. Also the left and right sides of the screen protector is cut to avoid the curved edges, so you will feel the edge of the screen protector when you swipe from the edge of the screen.
It does attract a lot of oil so be prepared to give it a wipe now and again.
The Amzer is too expensive for just front protection, so i'll pass.
I have really good experience with SGP SPs, but I read somewhere that the SGP is not with perfect cut, in that matter the ADB is better, the oil is in most SPs so that doesn't concerns me too much.
Right now I have the SGP Dual protectors, and i'm loving it. People have said that the screen protector was too big and had a little excess going over the curve, but i don't have that problem. You just gotta put it on right. and as for the fact that the screen protector isn't screen to screen, it's something you can overlook even without a case. I personally don't mind. The fact that I know I don't have to worry about it getting scratched so easily puts my mind at ease. It's really your preference. If you don't have a case/bumper, then you can get a wet install to get edge to edge coverage. If you have a case, the SGP dual protectors really do the job.
+1 on the SGP Dual Protectors.

[Q] Screen Protector and Ballistic Case

I have a Ballistic case for my Nexus 4 but keep finding that it pushed the cornets of my skinomi screen protector up. Because of this the corners have lost their stick and keep peeling. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on screen protectors that seem to work with this case or any similar cases? U fear this screen protector will not last very long at the rate it pulls off the screen.
I saw a similar post from last month but only one reply and so any other recomendatikns?

It's been a while since you posted your question, and I don't have any real suggestions, but I have found the same problem with the Ballistic SG case and the GadgetShieldz screen protector on my wife's Nexus 4. I'm planning to get another Nexus 4 for myself and will get the Ballistic case, but if I get another GadgetShieldz protector I'd be inclined to trim the protector a little so that the edges of the case do not contact the protector; perhaps the same procedure would be appropriate for other screen protectors too.
BTW, although Ballistic does not offer an "SG Maxx" case (which includes a holster) for the Nexus 4, I have found that the holster for the Samsung Galaxy S3 (which I bought separately on eBay) seems to fit the Nexus 4 plus Ballistic SG case nicely.

Recommendation for case & display protection

Hey guys,
I am looking for the best display protection film for my S10+.
I don't think it should cover the selfie cameras because of quality loss. Also it should be compatible with a case.
There are always so many of them and it takes hours to compare the reviews on amazon to find the best one.
If you know any good cases I would be very thankful for sharing. I need a thin and simple one.

I don't know in what universe your case is slim and simple Look to the attachment; that is whats simple and slim. Yours is more like surviving a worlwar
The problem with tempered glass covers for rounded phone displays is always that the glass doesn't fit 100% to the screen so they put 2 lines of glue on it instead of using adhesion & cohesion like the films do.
Don't get me wrong, I like glass more than films but there are no good glasses for phones with rounded edges.
But thank you very much for your help
For screen protecter i use Alien Surfaceâ„¢
Anyone have any feedback on the R-Just or Gundam cases?

With regards to display protection I would strongly recommend these I had the stock screen protector till it got too scratched then I got this one looks just as good no bubbles don't even notice it on there most of the time. The installation is a bit complicated but well worth the extra effort.

It would be great to know what Samsung puts on it. The OEM screen protector works well. The reviews on Amazon for every one of the protectors are awful. The IQ Shield has the best reviews of the bunch, but I am hesitant based on the negative ones.
I figure I'll use the OEM one until it is too scratched and then live dangerously with it naked.
Regarding thin cases - I've liked the Spigen Thin Fit - but it breaks easily. The Spigen Rugged Armor is a bit thicker but much more durable. For the s10, I am using a UAG - but it feels more like a tank - which strangely enough I am liking. Not too bulky and it gives a good grip.
Try Whitestone Dome Glass.. I heard its good.
I'm using my S10+ without any case and screen protector just like my old iphone x and s8..
DO you use them on the original screen protector?
