Screen protector covering samung logo on the front? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I know for some other phones that have this: protectors with color on them but clear on the screen part to mimic a galaxy s2 white etc. Is there one for the hercules but black? Thanks!

Ive seen SGP have them for the int'l ver of the SGS2. They dont have it for our phones yet. They recently just released their screen protector which I might try. Still waiting for cases from them but they have no plans.

i love SGP screen protectors, but i hate how the camera and ear speaker is cut out.

is it just as bad with finger prints as without a skin? it sounds gimmicky with "advanced optical enhancement layer"

I would like this too and cover up the t-mobile also.
Put a "galaxy S2" like what is on the back cover
where the t-mobile is.
That would be a screen saver/improver

Screen protectors from VZW store

So I am terrified of scratching my screen so i went into the VZW store today and got their anti glare screen protector. I've never put one on, or used one, so they did it for me. They didn't do that bad of a job, there's some loose spots around the edges, but I was more disappointed by how the screen looks now. You can definitely see the protector, even more so during white or light colored backgrounds/apps.
This is fine for now, as at least im protected, but can anyone recommend one that doesn't do this? I'm not familiar with them as this is my first time.... but i want my screen to be beautiful again!
I don't think you need a screen protector. The screen isn't Gorilla Glass, but I'm sure it's right near it in quality.
There's a bunch of people who already scratched their screens...

Can someone move this, wrong forum
Verizon sells two types of screen protectors
1. Antiglare protector
2. Clear protector
I suspect that you got the antiglare protector from your store. The upside to this one is that it cuts glare, has a smoother slide but can affect visibility of on screen apps like you notice.
Go back and buy the clear protector as I have no issues with it. if you think you may have problems putting it on yourself, then you can always pay 2x the price for a single Zagg protector in your local mall.
Good luck
i also got the anti glare one from verizon but the grainy/static look is starting to bug me im thinking of just using the phone naked

The grainy-ness really cheapens the screen. I would suggest going and buying a better screen protector. That's what I'm doing. Not going naked for a few months.
I as well got the anti-glare screen protector at the Verizon store and I hate it, I can't admire the screen because it looks like crap with the screen protector on. I went to the Clear Coat screen protector stand at my local mall and they said they should have protectors for the Galaxy Nexus in about a week and I plan to just do that instead of living with this anti-glare crap.
I'm going to order a replacement one on Amazon tomorrow, any suggestions? I don't want one that has to be wet to apply. I don't want to even know its there...
Are you sure this isn't gorilla glass? I had the Nexus S4G and the Epic 4G and the Epic Touch 4G. Non of these phone ever got scratched. There was a thread describing what it would take to scratch the gorilla glass but I can't find it.

It's not Gorilla Glass but it is a reinforced glass. It would be extremely tough to scratch this screen.

This glass is SOFT, and scratches very easily. I baby all of my phones, and I managed to get 3 minor scratches in a mere 3 weeks. My OG Droid and Nexus S went a year each with no problems. I hate screen protectors, but I ended up getting one because again...this glass is SOFT. I have the regular Verizon one, and I'm quite happy with it.

Yes, it's the normal, not the anti glare. I'm surprised at how clear they are. I bought it as a temporary solution, but I'm pretty sure I'm just going to keep it. It looks and feels great.

If it's a corporate store, I think you have a shot. Just tell them that you didn't want the antiglare in the first place and it ruins the phone. If it's one of those authorized dealers, I doubt they exchange it.

screen protector with anti fingerprint coating?

so i know lots of people are complaining about the fingerprints on this phone, personally the anti-fingerprint coating has been working perfectly for me.
i do want to get a screen protector though, but i'm hoping for one that has the same coating.
i think i saw a post somewhere here about one but couldn't find it so i'm wondering if anyone knows one.
There are some available.. I think stential or something like that, the spelling is prolly wrong, makes them. But it degrades the quality of the screen.

oh that's disappointing. i wouldn't want anything to lower the quality of the screen, need to show this beast off lol.
almost tempted to continue to go without a protector and just be extra careful then.

Ordered one from amazon, used same one for galaxy S2, worked great. google this: SGP Samsung Galaxy Nexus Prime Screen Protector Steinheil Series
http://xoskins.com Theirs reduces them a tun. Here's a video of it
well from what you guys are saying SGP seems to be the best. the Xoskins looks interesting but i'm a little confused. their video makes it seem great, but you say that it reduces them, so what do you mean there?
and just to be sure, if i want the anti-fingerprint one this is the one i get right:

Yes. Just know that it doesn't go edge to edge on the screen because of the curve.

shouldn't be too much of an issue for me since i use a case anyway and hopefully that will cover up the fact that it's not edge to edge.

This is not always true. The Steinheil Ultra Oleophobic will not degrade the quality of the screen. It is a bit undersized but this is by design since the screen is curved and it's a dry-apply screen protector. I've used them on my Incredible, Eris and TB and loved every one for not only their ability to minimize the appearance of finger smudges but their ease of installation as well.

I'm using a anti fingerprint screen protector ...

Sgp oleophobic = FAIL!!!

I returned my ZAGG within the 45 day period to get this thinking it would not have the orange peel (which it doesn't) and thought the anti fingerprint would be nice but this thing shows all fingerprints! And when you do get smudges.. Which is all the time.. It's nearly impossible to get them off! It just spreads the oil/fingerprints around..
So disappointed!

Yep, I took mine off about 30 minutes after putting it on. Hate it.
i am getting some screen protectors from diztronics. i hope they are the same as i got with my tpu. awesome dry screen protection.
They don't have the same guarantee that ZAGG does do they?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
probably not. but they're not as expensive either. nor are you paying for advertising. could be the same thing. never know these days.
go look around this forum. there are dozens of people, including myself with those skins. there is no orange peal and they do help with fingerprints.
you got a bad skin, or you got scammed because honestly, there are dozens of people here with this skin and no issues. including myself.

lol. i was just saying that diztronics screen protector is pretty good and it's a freebie with their tpu's. i ordered some more screen protectors for my nexus from them. i'm not a big fan of those phone shields. would rather run naked if i was going to do that and kind of feel ripped off for the price of them. tpu's, imo, off better protection, but i can see the value of a phone shield though. to each their own.
Try these if you're interested.

Make sure to use the make an offer and offer like $2.
I've used Zagg and hated the orange peel/rubbery texture. It was really good for finger prints though.
These have far less orange peel and less rubbery. I've tried several others and found this one to be the best compromise.
Are these wet or dry??
I have a diztronic that I totally forgot about... Might try it... But I was thinking about returning that case since I don't like/use it..

I got the InvisibleShield about a week ago and did a PERFECT install but for some reason the darn thing kinda moves around a bit, i noticed today that the bottom part was a bit upwards and i could easily move it back down with my finger, what the heck?

That's what I see on the page.
Why does everyone expect a screen protector to be the savior of common problems of a screen? If you're getting a crystal clear dry application screen protector, expect it to attract fingerprints regardless if it's oleophobic. The only way around this is to get an anti-glare/anti-fingerprint screen. Yes there is a trade off but it goes both ways.
Crystal clear - keeps the quality of the screen but smudges and attracts fingerprints like crazy.
Anti-glare - gives you a grainy display but gets rid of the fingerprints.

REALOOK my ass. Does it look real to you?

Don't really care for that screen protector. Doesn't seem like it covers a lot. Just my 2 cents. You seem pretty excited about it though, so it must fit your needs.

The mercury screen protectors suck lol.
The menu button and back button are actually printed on the screen protector itself. And the company name "Mercury is printed on the screen protector right above the back button.
And the mercury screen protector doesn't completely cover the front of the phone, so if you're trying to make a white S3 black, it'll look off.
I ordered three of the black and it wasn't mention, but it has a glittery look instead of just being black. I don't know if all of the colors are like this but it kind of throws it off in my opinion.
If none this bothers you, then order them, as for me, I'm getting my money back.
