Using PayPal you have to enter the code in one of the later screens that pops up. If you don't see the code box before the next screen that says “complete order” (or something of the sort) then you missed it and you need to backtrack.
So what codes are you using currently? I used (sprintxo) and it gave me 30% off. Total was $12 and change.
OK, so I got my XO on yesterday and am very impressed. I am very meticulous, very detail oriented and don't except anything that will allow any type of separation between the screen and protector. I sprayed both sides as the directions stated but I ended up spraying the sticky side (the side that meets the screen) quite more then the directions say to. Because of this the protector did slide around but it allowed for squeegeeing and adjustment. Eventually while keeping my finger firmly in place on the screen and squeegeeing around my finger it eventually gained some resistance to the point where I didn't need to keep my finger pressed on the screen. This allowed me to get perfect placement of the screen. I then continued to spray the screen from a distance to mist the screen followed by squeegeeing. I repeated this several times until I got all the bubbles out. I let the phone sit for a few hours (battery out). I then took a look at the screen and noticed some bubbles appeared to show up. About six small bubbles in total. I then sprayed the screen and used the squeegee and concentrated on these areas, using the corner of the squeegee. Now keep in mind that by doing this I noticed that I put small indentions where I attempted the get these bubbles out. I was successful in getting these bubbles out but 12+ hours later I still see those indentions. They are by no means very noticeable at all but they are there and you can see them ever so slightly at the right angle. I’m hoping over time they will heal themselves.
Moving forward with this screen protector on, I do have a few concerns. How well can I expect XO to heal itself? I compare it to a Zagg that I had on my Incredible. It healed very well. A friend of mine has a Zagg on his Nexus and I have to say, it is not healing anywhere as close to my Incredible Zagg did. To the point where he is going to return it. This is the reason I stayed away from Zagg this time. Compared to the Zagg the XO has far less orange peel. With the XO the limited peel it has seems to be more linear were as the Zagg was blotchy. The stickiness doesn’t effect the functionality of the phone and isn’t very noticeable. No comparison to the Zagg as it was very sticky. My intent wasn’t to do a comparison but it seems that is the way it’s turning out. I thought this would give more insight for people that are familiar with both types of protectors. For those of you not familiar with Zagg just disregard where it comes up.
I hope this gives better insight for those who are still on the fence that are considering an XO screen protector. After my first 12 hours with it I’m impressed with the look, feel and functionality of it. I do recommend it. We will see further on how it holds up.
