Did you wait 24 hours?

No I didn't. I applied it around 9PM and played with it after a couple hrs for just a few minutes then set it down then went to bed. The next morning all the smudges underneath were almost all gone.
By the afternoon, it was all perfect.

Somewhere on this amazing ball of creation!
Ugh... I think I'm going to have to reapply mine. I let it set for a while and it has a terrible orange peel effect. When the screen is on, you can't always tell, but when the screen is off, it looks terrible! :p Not sure why, I applied it exactly according to the instructions. ;). Oh well. Anyone else have that problem? I've had it on for several days. I figured it would go away like everything else, but no. =\

I hate this screen protector. The orange peel sucks and the thing gets dings very easy. Any other none wet app protrctors recomended?

If you guys are really having issues contact Skinomi if you bought it directly from them. I can pretty much guarantee that they'll replace it without issue.

AHHH nightmare with the carbon fiber skin. Once I opened my battery door I couldn't get it back on so I had to peel the carbon thing off :(
Film still looks awful but hopefully it will go away in a couple of days. Its been 21 hours and counting

Applied screen protector last night and let it sit overnight (~10 hours). It looks like I scratched the screen protector with the included squeegee, this is quite annoying.

Generally the marks that show up from the squeegee disappear after a few days. I've never had any that remain.

I've had it on for about a week and I still have the dents on the screen too. They're noticeable but not as bad and it looks great when the phone is turned on so I'm not too worried about it.

Something happened after having the protector on for about a week - these "trenches" that are a couple of mm wide appeared vertically on the screen. If there's any light source from behind, you can see them. Strange and annoying....

I contacted Skinomi through Amazon and they are sending me a new skin absolutely free of charge, no S&H and I don't need to send the skin back. I am very impressed. All they asked is for me to take pictures of the phone to help them improve their product.

Does the carbon fiber apply to the Nexus with an extended battery on it well? Thinking about getting this, but want to make sure it fits first.

Edit: That's awkward. This is the wrong product all together. Sorry guys.
