I am planning on buying one, but $30 seems a lot for something if it is not reusable. Is it possible to wash it after it gets dirty and stick it back on? Will it still stick to the screen?

From the SGP Website:
Q) Are the Glas Screen Protectors re-usable?
A) No, you cannot use it again once you take the Glas Screen Protector off from your mobile device.
I think if you take off it careful and stick it on somewhere clean, it can reuse.
You should try it and tell me.
That's a rip off then. $31.99 for something which you can't even fix if you apply it wrong the first time?

Then take your time when you'll install it... It's way easier to install than a normal screen protector.

I brought the black one and I removed it because of dust under it. The black sticky glue came off. It's a ripped off. But I managed to return it for full refund. I think that SGP products are overpriced.
And I don't the fact that the Samsung logo is covered by the Glas.

It's pretty hard to screw up installing it unless your really rushing it. Plus I really enjoy the fact that the Samsung logo is hidden, makes it all the more immersive when I'm watching videos.
If you remove it very carefully, yes. Thats what i did for mine. However you'll likely damage the coloring/adhesive because of the removal triangle tool.
Hey guys! I just got my nexus and, well it has a bad scratch on the screen... bad enough that I can feel it with my fingers. Its not HORRIBLE but its kind of annoying. How can I remove this? I've heard toothpaste works good. Thanks

I would recommend buying some kind of display polish before experimenting with toothpaste, since the device is brandnew!

Honestly, you can't just remove the scratch. A screen protector will mask the scratch. Your going yo have to replace the screen. Samsung should have put certified gorilla glass instead of a different fortified glass on the gnex. Think about it. Your not going to go without a scratch in the 2-3 years you have the phone.. so deal with it!

My 5 months of going caseless and without a screen protector disagree =]
You're sorta out of luck here. The phone is coated with a special oleo-phobic coating, so if you try to buff-out the scratch there will be a weird patch that will be noticeable to the touch and eye of where you scratched off the coating, unless you buff out the entire screen, which will give you more scratches most likely. My advice, cover it with a nice screen protector or ignore it until your phone develops more scratches, and then replace the entire screen. It will run you about ~$250 for the display. Honestly, if it bothers you that much replace the screen. You may be able to sell your scratched screen for $100 on Ebay for those people who crack their digitizer.
You can try the XO skins actually really good covering scratches (my brother mess up his phone too ) and cheap too and good warranty even outside US

Hey guys im looking at buying the gnex soon. The only thing holding me back is i keep hearing it scratches very easily. Im not a big fan of big cases and usually use the phone naked. Has anybody that been using it without protector and notices it scratches easy? Ive had a sgs1 for two years and that thing is like a brick. Dropped it too many times and not one scratch. Thanks

i've been using it without a screen protector, for about 4 months now. I generally keep my device very well, i dont over-protect it, but im not careless with it either, i.e. i dont put it in screen first with keys and loose change. so far it's absolutely pristine. It may not be gorilla glass, but it is something very similar. and judging form my experience with a samsung galaxy s 2 even gorilla glass isn't unscratchable, per se.

DO NOT USE TOOTHPASTE. EVER.
You will destroy your screen, toothpaste contains abrasive particle that kinda work like sandpaper on tooth enamel, which is very very hard.
get a zagg prtector or something similar, it comes with a gel foam applicant, which fills those scratches and when the screen protector goes onit creates a gapless layer, and you wont be able to see or feel the scratch. Well...at least the scratch wont be very obvious.
My two weeks old GNex, naked for only a week, then i had a scratch, very tiny scratch (between 'F' and 'G' portrait keyboard).
And it only noticeable under the light with a great focus of your eyes. It's okay, I don't like using case.
I can debunk two myths in this and numerous threads: 1. Toothpaste does not work in 'removing' or even masking scratches on the GNex. 2. Toothpaste does not otherwise 'mess up' your screen in trying to fix a scratch (at least using plain, mint Colgate paste )
Like others, I was curious to see if it'd work. I read in numerous sources that kept pointing to toothpaste as a home remedy, however oddly no success stories, but at the same time no stories of ruining your screen either. I tested a tiny spot first, in the corner of the display for 'abrasive' damge. Nothing. I then moved on to the scratch itself - a scratch that's about 3/4" in lenght (I got the phone used at a nice price due to the scratch). I used a tiny bit of plain white toothpaste, a q-tip that was barely damp, and a micro-fiber cloth. I applied the toothpaste ALONG the scratch and not just apply it in swirls, and waited for it to dry. I then buffed the paste off with the micro-fiber cloth. I did this twice. Nothing fixed, yet nothing ruined. So there you have it. That's my story.
I also tried Ghost Armor to mask it. Didn't help at all, if anything you could see it more than just when the light hits it just right 'naked.'
Additionally it looks like the long-term test of that one poster replacing just the GLASS on his GNex was not successful as he recently updated his post saying that various debris has found its way under the screen since his successful replacing of it. Due to this, he specifically says that due to the risk and debris, it's not worth it.
SO.... you either have to deal with the scratch(es), or replace the screen, digitizer, etc or just purchase a new/used device. Currently Gnex's are going for about $260-285 on Ebay auctions (cheaper on CL), while making a few calls to replace my screen fully runs anywhere from $200-250 locally.
However, I've heard stories where folks send their devices into Samsung to get just the glass replaced. If you start a ticket with them, they'll quote you around $163 including shipping both ways. However, there are stories of credit cards not being charged at all and covered under warranty if all they do is replace the glass.
Hope this helps.
I am ordering a new genuine OEM T-989 enclosure. I have seen a lot of people replace the screen digitizer combination. I have not seen any body remove the digitizer and screen from the bezel and mid frame.
Has anybody done this?
Does anybody have any information on this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P600 I believe. I know it was 600 tho. And no technique I didn't even take the phone apart. I took the battery door off and make sure you have a screen protector on so you don't f up your ****. Just rub he paper hard on the bezel don't be afraid. It will take about 30 to 45 min maybe an hour with breaks cus your fingers will start to burn. Use a gloves they'll help.

here you go
I have been thinking that if it is impossible, could you not just sand off the bezel, then Dremel out the inside screen mount of the new frame and finally epoxy the new bezel where the old bezel used to reside with plastic epoxy?
I asked some expert phone repair guys at the CPR Cell Phone Repair franchise; and they said that the screen will never ever ever ever come off unless you are either a machine or really good. They stated that they would not be able to guaranty the screens safety especially considering the heat involved.
If it is done by Samsung at all without replacing the entire digitizer and screen combo I would assume they use some kind of vacuum suction cup to pull off the screen after the proper amount of heat is applied.
Or, we could just paying Samsung the quoted 100 dollars to have it done.
This is non warranty work, so does anyone think they will mind if the phone is rooted?

The pictures above you post is what I did to my phone. I sanded the bezel without even taking it apart.

The Bezel is part of the frame I believe. I would bet allot of money you can't get the screen of without cracking the digitizer. But, heat the top and bottom, that is where the greatest concentration of adhesive is. And watch the ribbon to the capacitive buttons because they will be stuck to the screen. You will have to disconnect them.

That looks pretty cool dude. I have a question for you tho. How did you set the DPI so high? Your icons are small and thats how I want mine to be except whenever I use the DPI app from the market, it causes problems with parts of the ROM. For example the google search bar will only go halfway across the screen.

If you do get a new one, I recommend getting a good screen protector so you don't have to worry about this again!
My phone was the same I'm a mechanic and get all kinds of chemicals on my hands and then my phone but at the end of the day I started cleaning my screen with this armor all car wax it's a wet or dry fast wax comes in a bottle like windex and it's like new again maybe a bad idea but no negative effects on mine yet.

I doubt your carrier would fix this problem of yours because it's not a mistake of theirs, they'd only fix the phone or screen if it was a manufacturer problem, which it clearly isn't.. if I were you, I'd do an insurance claim on your phone, pay $100 or whatever you're supposed to pay, get yourself a new s3 and sell the one you have now for as much as you can get out of it..

Ummm....I think that's insurance fraud. When you do an insurance claim you have to return the one that's broken if I'm not mistaken. Otherwise if you claim is as "lost" or "stolen", or even anything else, they deactivate the imei so it can't be used. I'd be pissed if I bought a phone that was blocked from a person like that. Be careful about the advice you give. Its a similar concept if you do a warranty exchange through Tmobile. They expect their device back otherwise you get charged the restocking fee.

Generally all touchscreen phones will have fingerprints after awhile. Mine didn't till after a couple weeks ago did then they started showing up.
It is what it is. Either wash your hands all the time or get a good screen protector. Really is that simple.

My wife's white s3 has the same issues, but not my blue one. I am going to change the outer glass/screen on the phone, and then add a screen protector. Hopefully it is not the digitizer. The issue is that the area at the bottom left side of the screen has to be pressed hard for a response, sometimes it goes into things when swipe as if a had taped on those only.

go to Orilley's or any other car care sales place and get a small spray bottle of a detail wax.
it is not expensive, and I use the Mothers brand because of the price and results. (I also use it on my car)
spray a little on a microfiber towel, or if you don't have any, use a paper towel. Wipe the product all around on the glass area and keep wiping till the product starts to dry up. You do NOT have to press hard. After that, just wipe up the glass and you'll see it's just as good as new.
I also do the camera lens and the pictures come out MUCH, MUCH sharper!
Good Luck!

yes! but don't Flood the juice.... dampen a small spot using the rag jcovering your pointer finger and rub lightly all around the glass and keep rubbing till the liquid starts to dry, but not totally dry, and wipe off the residue. be careful not to get anything in the buttons and speaker ports. You might even use painters tape to mask out the speaker and home keys till you get a feel of the procedure down. You won't have to do it too often, just when you feel the glass is getting too "sticky""

im sorry but screen protector has nothing to do with the digitier screen LCD, its more likely for the front glass and to keep away from dust between the front glass and the LCD digitier, make sure you build a right adhesive rectangle tape around the digitier LCD

I dont have insurance :/ luckily my crack doesn't affect the viewing of the screen thats why i havent bothered to try or even call samsung to see how much it is to replace it.

then i think you shouldnt replace it
Wow tonight I dropped my phone and it spiderwebbed really bad too. And I have the best otterbox on it. And I dont have insurance on it. So it looks like you had a similar problem right? If I follow your guide I should be able to fix it myself? The phone still works perfectly just glass is smashed. I guess that I really dont have anything to lose right. I still cant belive that the otterbox failed. It was only a 3 foot fall I have drop. I wish I could call otterbox and get them to help but oh well.

yes you will be able to fix it yourself if you listen and follow the video carefully and don't rush in this operation cause you might scratch the LCD digitier...and if your front glass is all shattered, use tape to hold them down before lift the front glass up or take them out in each piece if you feel comfortable in that way
