I was somehow unable to get "Fireworks60" to work but I was able to get "Freedom80" to correctly work. Thanks :good:

ohhh you beat me to it...lol i got the same email and was about to post it up here!!!
but doesnt matter!

I have to say I didn't like the protector I bought for my droid charge (it was horribly miscut) but the fact that they refunded my money before I even sent them back like they told me to was nice. I will now keep it around and at least try it on my S3.

You must've just been unlucky to be honest, my S3 ones fitted perfectly. Although I kinda wish they gave you the sides as well, they are still prone to scratches as well as the screen and back cover of the device!

Other than the black specks, which you must wash off thoroughly if you get any in your order, I can say so far mine has held up and working as well as my Skinomi did..

These scree protectors suck.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

Seems like they are using a thinner material. I have already replaced 2 of these screen protectors because they keep lifting up. I have tried 3 different tpu cases and they all push up this screen protector.

I agree! Just do not buy it... I bought one and I regretted

I bought these via the last thread about them a few weeks back. The cut out for the camera etc has to be the worst I have ever seen on a protector, It's not inline with anything and to steal a phrase someone else used in the thread as it explains perfectly looks lIke they where cut out by a blind sIx year old chIld. After a while the back plate protector developed a yellow tinge and looks horrible. The rest I've thrown in the bin. These are cheap in every sense of the word but also expensive for what they are even with a 80% discount. Their basically disposable protectors that will need changing regularily say every week or so if you want to keep your phone looking nice.

Not sure what you guys received, but here is a picture of my phone with the screen protector installed. It is working just as my invisishield, skinomi and shieldguard protectors have.

It's a trade off for multi layered self healing that can take the energy off a screen hit.
If there a difference in distortion or clarity when the screen is on? For what mine does, I am satisfied.

I just gave it a try for about a month and thought it also looked good until I decided to give other protectors a try to compare and the moment I took it off the screen just looked way way better. Then I slapped on a dry screen protector that is virtually invisible. Have it side by side by my friends sgs3 attention and sgs3 tmobile with same images, can't even see it or tell.

I've used many dry protectors, everyone of them has had the same result, sure they look great and clear, but they always start gather soot at the edges and start to peel. Once that event beings it doesn't end there..

Expired July 9th 2012, someone please post a new one quick

finally i got my order yesterday... never been so happy.. this is actually my second order, but now its for ipad, iphone and my s2..

Bought these when they had the 80% off and they are horrible. I put them on 2 phones and promptly took them off and gave away the remaining 3. Kudos to those that like them, but to me they were cloudy and I was clearly able to tell there was a screen protector on.

Lifeproof case for S3?

So after going to my local ATT corp store and seeing this case it looked pretty interesting. Do they only make cases for the iPhone? Tried doing some research and found nothing! Only iPhone cases.

Iphone and Ipad only. I would definitely be in for one for the s3 if the decided to make it though.

Thanks for posting that link. I have wasted lots of $$$ on screen protectors because I never liked how I applied them. No matter what I do, i get dust/bubbles, and all sorts of other issues. That roll-on screen protector is going to save me so much money and pain/anger.

If you have a hard time with screen protectors you should go check out ghost-armor.com . I have my phone wrapped in clear with a second layer of white carbon fiber, they will do the whole installation for you and they even covered my flygrip in white carbon fiber as well
My S3 gets me Blazed

Otterbox is coming out with a similar case called the Armor. Its been announced for the iPhone, but if anybody would build a non-apple version it would probably be them. I would consider asking them.

Sorry for the double post forgot about this one haha but how well does this protect the phone? I notice most wraps/full body ones such as zaggs leaves the top pretty unprotected. Same with slickwraps. Any idea how ghost armor compares?

Doubtful, Otterbox has their collective head so far up apples ass that it's not even funny. They couldn't even produce a case for the S3 release even though this phone has sold millions already.

I emailed Otterbox earlier to ask them about the Armor case. They don't have plans to make it for any other phones... iPhone only.

They could easily sell 100k cases for the s3 (10M sold so far).
I would buy it immediately

I would jump right on that as well. They did have a post on their site a few months back that they were working on coming out with cases for Samsung phones. It would seem that the s3 should be at the top of the list when they do.
It would be nice to have for kayaking and snowboarding, nice for listening to music in the shower too!

I bought the otterbox commuter with an hd invisishield and loved it. Then upgraded to the defender and while I like the defenders premise.. I hate that I get dust under the screen cover through the miniscule opening at the top where the front facing camera and ear speaker is. I may go back to the commuter and hd screen.

Speck Candyshell

Anyone use/used this case and can share heir likes/dislikes? Looks pretty good on a laptop screen. Lol
Oh, and if pics could be taken too, that would be great.
Sent from my sexy white Galaxy S3 on T-Mobile

Junk, don't waste your money. I had to return 3 cases because they cracked. Read more here:
http://www.amazon.com/Speck-Product...dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

Damn, were they real though? I read somewhere that the fakes do crack like hell.
Sent from my sexy white Galaxy S3 on T-Mobile

I actually just got my candyshell a couple of days ago. I was put off by the 'cracking' from the reviewers, but I ordered it from Amazon and they have a great return policy. I also had a speck when I had the iphone 3gs and I liked it. It provided protection without being too bulky. Too bad they don't have it in white!
I was actually surprised as it was better than the iphone version - the buttons are really easy to press (on the iphone case, I always had to push down really firmly on the volume rocker and power button because the rubber didn't have as much give). So far, I like it as it also gives me something more solid to hold, I'm probably the minority but the naked phone feels so light, like I'm going to snap it in half. No complaints with cracks so far, will update if there is.
Here are some photos:

= sent from my Unlocked VZW S3 =

Thanks! Yeah, the cracking put me off too, but I saw reviews that said how easy the buttons were to press and its a pretty slick case so I bought one.

Yeah, actually the speck case for the galaxy s3 seems less flimsy than the iphone version. To me, anyway.

Case is junk. Super hard to get the phone out of and the cracking is real.
Get a case mate tough or a incipio sylicrilic.

I have this case. It's my everyday case right now. I've put it on and off the phone multiple times and never had any issues. If you do it as per the instructions then it comes out easy. Mine has not cracked. This is the best case I have found that is slim fitting, has a lip to keep the screen and camera lens off of tables, and covers the buttons. I would recommend it.

Kinda hard to show picts when I have sent all 3 back to amazon. The case cracks from the camera opening to the top of the speck logo. Others have reported it cracks in other areas too. Give it time, yours will crack too. We had a speck candyshell for our iPhone and that thing was the best....this one for the S3 is total crap

I remember reading somewhere on another forum that it was one specific color that was cracking and Speck stopped selling that color due to the issues. I believe the other colors were all fine with no problems. I think it was the greyish bluish one that they stopped.

Yeah, it was the Pebble / Bayou color that was having issues. I can't seem to find the thread that I read that on but if you go to the Speck website you'll see that they show 5 color options in one of the photos but you can only buy 4 of them. You can't buy the Pebble / Bayou color as I believe that was the one that had the issues.

Both shocked and appalled that this thread is as yet inconclusive...

Are you guys comfortable with it? I keep seeing posts not only in this forum of it cramping peoples hands etc etc.....
I'm not finding it that hard to hold, one handed operation can be challenging once in a while especially when reaching for that top left portion of the screen but no biggy.
How many people are finding it uncomfortable to hold this device. I'd also like to suggest..

lol.

It took me a couple days to get use to.
The right case makes a big difference on how it feels in hand.
I wont be going back to smaller size device that's f,sure.

To hold it in one hand, I support it with my pinky from the bottom so I can reach the bottom of the phone to type. It mostly gives cramps to my hand but not a big deal. I had the same issue with my sgs2.
But 2 handed operation is excellent.
Actually I got used to this phone's size so fast that I started to feel the screen is still small. so I grabbed my sgs2 and played it a while. I felt amazed again to hold my note2

This is why I'm trying to avoid the candyshell hard cases or forget the otter box. I want something as slim as the device and still offer decent protection. I'm hoping the seidio surface does the job and hardly adds size. I ordered one last night.

I had to remove the slim case l bought. Otherwise, without a case, it's been totally fine.

I love mine and really enjoy the bigger screen (coming from SGSII). I'm putting a FlyGrip on it which will make it easier for one-handed use AND it will prevent it from falling out of your hand(s). Check them out. I absolutely love my FlyGrip on my SGSII. Highly recommend it.

[Q] Scratches on screen :(

Hey everyone,
I'm really sad to say that my Nexus 7 that I've had now for less than 2 weeks has pretty bad scratches on the screen. Considering that these devices use scratch resistant screens I was pretty surprised and upset/pissed to find them.
I was planning on buying a screen protector for it while I wait for my case to come in from ebay and I discovered these scratches. I take the tablet with me around a lot on the go but tend to hold it in my hand (yes I know it's not the best idea), but I treat it like a baby so I literally have never dropped it, dinged it, "traded paint" with any surface or anything of that sort. I'm really surprised to have even found these scratches.
I was wondering if anyone knew about any sort of warranty regarding this issue? I've also experienced at times some "ghost" touches on the device while using it, and usually what will happen is that when I would click on something on the screen, it would respond as if I was holding my finger on that location. This would happen a lot while typing and would get pretty annoying as many words I would type would not complete and rather have a symbol in them.
I forgot to mention, I bought the device from a retail TigerDirect store and on the reciept it indicates that it is possible to refund or exchange tablets within 14 days of the purchase price. So I have until October the 6th before it's been 2 weeks that I've had the device.
If anyone has some tips or advice in regards to what I should do I would gladly appreciate it as it really saddens me to see that I already have scratches on this pretty much brand new device.
Thanks!

Go get exchanged for the touch screen issues. This way you are exchanging it for a legit reason and you will get a while new device with a perfect screen again. I always use a screen protector. Sand will scratch just about any screen and I like to just be on the safe side.

Thanks for the reply! I'm definitely going to go to TigerDirect tomorrow to get it replaced for the issues I'm having with the touch screen. Will also buy a screen protector from there to install on the tablet as soon as I open it up again. Just really frustrated that I have to do this with something that's not even a month old :\

Thanks!
Got it exchanged without any issues! :highfive:
Also picked up an invisible shield screen protector from Zagg. Even though it was like $25, felt pretty worthy of the price since its got a lifetime guarantee.
Thanks again!

How do you scratch your screen? Do you put your tab face down? I got 3 tabs in the last 2 years.. No screen protector and never got a scratch!

I have two faint but long scratches across the screen on my just over a month old Nexus 7 flo. I will say that the screen on this device is pretty prone to scratching despite careful treatment of it. Same thing for the back plastic bezel around the screen.

You don't even know what means I took to avoid any kind of damage to this tablet. I literally BABIED it but still somehow got a scratch. It must have been due to sand or something. It's never been placed face down and the screen has never come into contact with any other object or surface.
I learned my lesson though, and was fortunate to have been experiencing some of the touch screen bugs. I bought a screen protector this time after exchanging it for a new one. Still haven't unboxed it yet but first thing I'm doing is putting my screen protector on haha

I gotta agree with you. I took so many precautions to avoid this and that's exactly what happened. The screen is definitely prone to scratches regardless of it having a scratch resistant screen.

My heart sank when I first noticed the scratches lol. I couldn't stop thinking about them and was really disappointed. Just glad I was able to get a new one haha

Did warranty changed your device?

Yeah I got it changed under the 14 day return/exchange policy from TigerDirect due to the screen malfunctioning.
