HTC Incredible :: Screen Protector - Scratched?
May 15, 2010
I was planning on ordering a Steinheil before I got my phone so that I could put it on as soon as it came out of the box. However, because they have been out of stock forever I can't do that.
Has anyone that is not using a screen protector actually scratched their screen? I know that another reason is fingerprints but until I get my Steinheil will I need to worry about scratches, even small ones (like those from jean pockets).

I'm getting the Dinc next month and plan to get a screen protector. However, I just saw someone I know who had a Dinc since release date and his screen still looks perfect.
He has never used a case or screen protector, not even a pouch. He puts it in his jeans pocket for the most part.
Since then I've been trying to find a picture of a screen that actually scratched and have not been able to find one. I did find videos of abusive testing done on the screens.
It got me wondering whether screen protectors/cases are necessary or overkill.

Is anyone using their Inc unprotected? No case and/or no screen protector? Especially no screen protector?

I applied the Verizon screen protector I got last week, but I was thinking about getting the whole phone protector. Well I was looking at the screen of the INC and for the life of me I cannot find any corners to start peeling the screen protector off. Any suggestions?

I just got my incredible, typing on it as we speak. It's pretty awesome, but the screen puts a red tint thats most visible on grays. The Verizon dude convinced me to get a cheap screen protector, could that be the cause?

I just got my SGP Steinheil Crystal Clear Screen protector in the mail today. As I was applying it I noticed that the little circular cutout for the optical trackpad is nearly perfectly sized for the camera lens! No more complaining about the lens getting scratched when you set it down!

I wonder if VZW would void the manufacturer warranty because of this? There are some issues with radio and signal quality, home screen swiping and phantom app openings .....

I put a Zagg Invisible shield on but did not like the super glossy orange peel look so I removed it. I checked out the steinheils website and some youtube vids and they look really nice. Is the only difference between the steinheil crystal and the anti-fingerprint the finish? I'm not too sure I'd like the matte finish as I would think it would slightly dull the brightness of the display. I've also seen the Phantom skinz and the orange peel effect seems to be a bit better than on the Zagg. Anyone with experience using both Zagg and Phantom SKinz products how do they compare? Does either of the two have a definitive advantage over the other in terms of appearance and feel of the coating while sliding your finger over it.

Ok, so here's my question, does anyone have a full front screen protector Like boxwave, Seidio, Clarivue, etc (not the small vzw one) on with the black rubber case from Verizon? I'm asking because the case is kind of tight and I'm worried it will press hard against the screen and in turn create big bubbles in the corner. Happened with my Rubber casemate case on my Nexus One.

I made a big scratch in the middle of my HTC Hero's screen using the back of a spoon.
(I discovered the screen worked with a spoon). Do you know if it is possible to remove it? Is it possible to change the screen or just the scratched part? (How much does it cost?)

I don't like using screen protectors if I don't have to. And this glass screen seems pretty scratch proof (for the most part anyways, I know anything could be scratched). But in everyday usage, taking pretty good care of your phone, have you put any scratches on it? I've had mine a month now, no protection, and not a single hairline scratch to be found. I carry it in my front pocket always and tend to set it down where ever and it's still good.
I know lots of people are using screen protectors, but for those that aren't, has anyone actually needed one in normal everyday moderate care use? How good is this screen anyways?

just wondering if anyone has a scratch or two on their epic screen? i'm still going naked with mine since launch day, have been pretty careful with it, but nothing more different than with prior phones.
phone goes into pocket with screen facing in. when there's too much smudges i wipe it against clean soft part of shirt (as opposed to my eye glasses, where i use a specific cotton cloth.)

I haven't got my phone yet, but I noticed on the pics of Incredible, the camera lens could get scratched easily, don't you guys think so?

I was thiking of buying either a screen protector from verizon or best buy. I was wondering which is the best to buy out of the two or if there is a better protector? Also what is the best case for the motorola droid? Lastly, when I make phone calls my screen goes black so it is hard for me to end calls. How can i fix this? I don't see any settings for this on the droid.

Well having just got a X10. It has a pre-installed screen protector. Somehow I managed to scratch the screen protector and now I want to remove it however I'm having much difficulty removing it. Now I'm thinking if I should get a replacement screen protector as the Rogers version doesn't come with a spare one or just go without it. Anyone without the screen protector wanna add input about the durability of the mineral glass screen? I know that the screen on the iPod Touch 2G is very durable since I own one without having a protector on but I want to know if the X10s screen is just as durable.

So I recently got a set of screen protectors and put one on.All was well just noticed a few bubbles and so I tried to work them out.They weren't going away, so I figured I would try again so I removed it and to my astonishment the bubbles were still there. It's like they formed under the screen somehow when I put the protector on, they were absolutely not there before.There are 2 in the center of the screen and a few along the edges. At first I just thought it was a water spot but I cannot wipe them off.The ones on the edge of the screen I can"push out" to the edge to almost make them disappear.When you touch them with the pads of your fingers you can feel a slight "bump" in the screen (very minute but still there).They bubbles are easily visible when the screen is off and almost go away when the screen is on but you can still tell they are there.Is this a defect in the phone or did I cause this trying to install the protector? I didn't push down hard on the screen, just applied the protector and they appeared.

I am expecting my ordered screen protector to arrive shortly.
1. What is the best way of cleaning any marks off the screen before affixing the screen protector?
2. What is recommended method of fixing the protector?
3. Does the use of this affect the ease of using the touch screen?

I'm currently using the phantom skinz line and although I like the body protectors I think the screen protector has reduced some of the screen's clarity/sharpness. This wasn't an issue with the static protectors I got from verizon. The only reason I replaced the verizon ones is because they didn't cover the buttons along the bottom of the screen. Anyone find a static protector they like that covers the whole screen?

hey guys! I'm a pre owner soon to be EVO owner! I don't think I will be getting a case in the beginning as I want all of it's sexiness to be seen by the world. So I wanna get a really good screen protector. Reading the accessories must have thread people named many different ones like ghost armor and other name brands I can't think off the top of my head. Which would you prefer or not recommend?

I have had a screen protector on my Evo since I got it from Sprint on June 5th. It is a Sprint brand and is the anti glare type. It still looks good...no scratches, not falling apart etc. But I was wondering if it will damage the screen from being on so long and should I replace it with a new one. I never had occasion to use a protector before so forgive me if the question sounds like a stupid one.

I know this has probably been answered a bunch of times. What is the best screen protector to buy? I've heard good things about Ghost Armor and Steinheil protectors. Out of those two, which is the better screen protector?

What brand of screen protectors do you all like? I've heard people talking about Zagg, Wrapsol, and Phanton Skinz, but which is the best? Preferrably would like one that is not very "grippy" and has as little orange peel effect as possible.

My HTC Magic appears to be a massive fingerprint magnet. On my iPod Touch I have a Zagg Invisible Shield which helps a lot at preventing fingerprints.I think there is an Invisible Sheild coming soon for the Magic, but I only really want to cover the screen.Is anyone using a screen protector at the moment and does it help with fingerprints?
