I recently cracked the top right of my gs3's screen, it didn't cause any problems but i wanted to cover the crack up so I decided to buy one of these in black.
When it arrived, I put it on and it made my phone look much more sexy, the texture was also nice and felt like my fingers could happily slide over it without any friction, and grease wouldn't affect this. Sadly i noticed that it created some sort of rainbow effect like there was water or grease under the screen. Thinking i had not cleaned the screen properly before applying, stupidly, i removed the protector and cleaned the screen again. After reapplying it, I realized that it was the actual screen protector creating this affect but by then, lots of dust, hair and dirt had got under the screen and the thing looked ugly, so i threw the thing out.
Anyway, i though the protector looked too good and was worth the downgrading screen effect so i recently bought another and am happily going to apply it as soon as it gets here.
I hope this helps anyone who's thinking of buying a screen protector.
Some links below are available, the product is obtainable by America and most of Europe.

Just wanted to post this in case anyone else had done this besides me (it was stupid on my part so don't laugh)...
I had purchased the 3-pack screen protectors from the AT&T store a while back for $9.99. I had installed one of them and it was smooth, but didn't quite feel right. I used it for a while and then I began to see small scratches and wondered why it scratched so easily. This started to distract me because I like the look of a "clean" screen. So I decided to remove the protector. Well, when I went to remove it, I realized that when I installed it, I must've only removed the sticker tab applicator thingy in the corner and not the whole protective sheet. So what was scratching was only the protective sheet, not the actual screen protector! I removed the protective sheet to expose a nice, new, smooth screen protector! I know, I'm an idiot. Just wanted to let anyone else out there know to check this in case they notice theirs scratching easily and wondering why... Oh well, you live and you learn...

gotta love the asshats!
now as for a reply:
i use the at&t ones as well and i love them. Very glass like feel to them!
So if I wanted to replace it, would i replace the LCD screen itself or the digitizer? Not sure as the photos of where I can buy both of these items do not make it very clear which part I need.
MOST phones are just the glass itself. LCD Digitizer is the LCD display this is like this

but many phones the digitizer is attached to the glass(My Galaxy S 4g) I would just recommend going to your local flea market and look for a phone guy. They're the cheapest.
Depends how much it´s scratched, but general is just the digitizer.
That's what I thought. The LCD screen is a tad recessed for it to be the top of the screen... now i know for future reference
Wow you hardly broke it :$

Are you sure it's not the shatter-resistant film that's scratched? It can be removed, and the screen won't scratch as easily (just try not to drop the phone if you do)
That would be it, the only thing i ever removed from my screen was the thing plastic protector that all devices have on their screens now.. Thanks!
HOLY SH*T!!!!!!!!
Ur poor phone...when i see it i thing it is better buy a new one or insurance...
Anyone know a bag which has enough room to hold an s3 with a mumi tpu skin case? I really need the skin case because at work and at home I want to see the phone and especially the notification led, but to carry it I want some good protection against dust and dirt. A screen protector is not an option for me. Thanks for any hints and pointers!
I was just thinking about this after i got back from golf and having the phone in the cart it got dusty. I'm probably going to use the cloth bag that you get when you buy a bottle of Crown Royal. It's free and pretty lightweight although i don't know how smooth the insides of those bags are.
Yea something like this would be really handy... It needs to be a snug fit tho. I guess it wouldn't be too hard to make with the right material although surely someone's making something like this already?
Just for completeness I've now got this sleeve. The s3 lurks out about 2mm which I can live with. I finally did apply a scree protector (dipos crystal clear) so I think I'm fine now.

Awhile back I bought a screen protector and it came in.
I read the instructions and everything, finally ready to apply.
I start applying and the first thing I notice is 3 layers of **** protecting the screen protector.
So eventually I ruined the first one because of dust and didn't know what ****ing layer was the screen protector.
I start on number two with a better attitude thinking I got this *****, the hell you know it gets screwed over. Apparently somewhere in between applying I bent the *****.. and this causes it to look like **** even then there was bubbles everywhere, where it says its bubble free
I don't even want to apply number three because I know something horribly will go wrong. Did anyone else use this brand and what was your experience?
I'd also like to note it did get scratched when applying the film too. Piece of **** companies
To top it off I got my case in too and it looks used, looks like a coffee stain on the back and was poorly cut.

Glasszone tampered screen protector that I must of had for a year now with urban armor gear case. Everything was good up until today.
I thought it would be cool to put my phone on my rc car.. so I ziptied it to the rear shock tower without the body on. Was cool for about 15 seconds when I decided to go full throttle down the straight in front of my house, hitting a rough spot in the dirt and flipping it over lol,
Anyways, besides that, the protector worked out great.
but now for repairing my phone, I want another one, but not sure if I want to shell out near $30 bucks on another protector. Anyone got any experience with the clear ones on ebay for about $10 bucks or so?
Also I am kinda interested in this one

I went and ordered a white replacement screen (my phone was blue and the glasszone protector I had was black), so I want to go with a white protector, or maybe the clear ones.
