Just wanted to share my experience so far installing the IQ Shield Protector (full coverage film) on my Ultra Hybrid Crystal Clear Spigen case. I know there's been a lot of talk of "peeling" and protectors not working but I haven't had any issues so far and wanted to share my installation process. I did the installation right before bed to let the protector "cure" over night.
1. First I watched IQ Shields installation video and followed the instructions. Only took about 3 minutes for the flat surface, then waited about 20 minutes before wrapping the protector around the edges with my palm.
2. Once the protector stuck onto the edges, I actually used plastic film (Saran Wrap) to tightly wrap the edges from one side of the phone to the back onto the other edge. The plastic wrap clings nicely due to the glass of the phone and ensured the protector was tightly secured to the edges overnight. (when taking off plastic wrap in morning make sure to take off wrap following the contour of the edges, not other way around or you'll peel protector off with wrap)
3. In the morning, to put the phone into the case, I used the "business card" trick detailed in this forum http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...ling-off-edges-check-out-tip.html#post5356914
So far, the protector has absolutely no peeling or bubbles whatsoever! I guess time will tell and I will update if any issues but as long as the protector lasts a few months I can just repeat the process when necessary. Pictures below to help illustrate what I mean with the plastic wrap and the finished product!
Hope this helps!
