This is purely for sharing purpose and proof of theory, if you decide to do it on your own, then its all your own risk

Since in my country, Whitestone Dome is not available, and i cant find any good similar product,

I decide to make it on my own,

i do smartphone repair on a daily basis, and i know how to use LOCA glue, and i had available tools around,

So i grab one Nillkin 3D CP+ Max Full Screen Glass Protector,

i put the LOCA glue on the screen, and apply the glass on top, let the glue spread evenly,

curing it using UV lamp, and....

Sorry i forgot to create video

Here's the result : Full Screen Tempered Glass With Full Adhesive :fingers-crossed:

2. what kind of loca glue? ( tp1000 , tp2500 , tp2500f)

You need less than 10cc absolutely,

One 10cc tube can do at least two installation

2500 should be good enough, its softer than 1000,

Removal is not that hard, but you need to slowly wipe away the dried/jellyfied loca :)

Actually for this kind of project,

Any TG protector will do,

But i choose one that has color on the edge, since it will disguise if there's any micro bubble appear on the edge,

Even cheap $3 bucks glass will do,

I just did 2nd installation using those kind of glass,

Fit perfectly well

I am interested in giving this a try. From what it sounds like, you just put some adhesive on the glass, affix it to the screen, wipe away the excess, then cure it? How do you manage the glue around the speaker grill? I'm concerned the glue will gunk up the speaker.

Put a paper tape on the speaker first. And remove it later,

Although, you can simply control the amount of LOCA you are using, so that there wont be too much excess that go near speaker.

If you accidentally gunk up your speaker, just use tooth brush, it will easily remove the dried up loca from the grill ;)

Wow..... is there any side effect, are there any leaked glue on the side/top/bottom ?
how is the sensitivity, i use Nillkin 3D CP+ Max Full Screen Glass Protector aswell, and the sensitivity on the top corner is horrible.

Leaked glue was cleaned right away after installation :)

Sensitivity is perfect, since there's no air gap like what happen in most common tempered glass,

and although there's glue between the glass and screen, it's LOCA which designed and purposed for mostcof LCD-Touchscreen-Glass bonding, so it has almost 0 effect to sensitivity and light transmittance

And experience is much better compared to common rubber or tpu protector, since its glass ;)

What's the difference between this both?
AP should be thinner,

CP+ Max is still around 0.2-0.3mm
I had found a YouTube video, and it was comparing the difference between the CP+ and AP+ screen protector for an iPhone, and the guy was saying th CP+ was better, but didn't really say why, or what the difference is.

EDIT:
I sent an email to the manufacturer got a response. The CP+ Max is Tempered Glass, the AP+ Pro is a PE Resen (flexible).

Hmmm I personally wouldn't consider this full-screen coverage but how well it is working without a case (if you don't use a case)? Like is it peeling up at all?

No peeling up,

And i indeed, do not recommend to use case with this,

Since the glass is reaching the edge of the screen, most of case wont fit well

I got the CP+ Max in today. Removed the other screen protector that I had got last week:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XHPMW98/
I didn't like that one since I could see the adhesive on the edges .
But the new screen protector is black all around, looks nice one, like you don't even have one installed. Still has the micro dots. Works with the two cases I have, EasyAcc and Diztronic.

Would a 3W UV torch be enough, or is 30W UV lamp necessary? And also, can you point me to the glue you used? I've been reading on the internet that theres some cheap loca that doesn't cure well...

Edit: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B011HY1QNM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_dp_T2_nSGuzbFNNWDDM
this lamp comes with the whitestone dome glass, so i guess this works? any ideas?
3W or even 6W would be too small, it will takes too much time to cure

Am using 36W UV lamp box, the one which nirmally used for nail polish in beauty shop, it fully cure the glue in around 5-30 mins

This is amazon link : https://www.amazon.com/Salon-Edge-36W-Professional-Dryer/dp/B006QO4BRM

LOCA glue i used is mechanic brand. Quite popular among repair shop in my country, not sure that would be available in your country though,

Here's on alibaba : https://m.alibaba.com/product/60537...-glue-liquid-optical.html#show_specifications

I think as long as you are not using the shaddy cheap one, you should be okay.
