So, I ordered the SGP Ultra Olephobic and it was my first screen protector install ever. I put it on and I messed up...the first time. So I threw away that one and got a new one right? I tried putting that one on more carefully, but alas it didn't work. Then a friend told me that I should try a wet install of them. I tried it out an voila wet install sticks great with the same properties as the dry install, except MUCH MUCH easier. Now, I am a perfectionist and I will admit that my install was not perfect and I will probably do it again, but the fact that the wet install worked was awesome. So just wanted to share that. Any thoughts?
That's what the instructions recommend..... Im confused

Try phantomskinz. You get 2 for 1 when you order online, for $10..
I'm confused about your post though. Most of the screen protectors I've used were wet.
great story....YAWN..........
Admittedly Apple users get some cool accessories but then again it's easy for manufacturers to focus on products for just one phone.
Anyhow, I wouldn't mind a case with a built in screen protector but looking at the vid below that thing gives off some major glare:
The point is that out isa dry screen protector and it went on better wet

Even the cheap ones go on better wet. Some of the nice ones actually come with fluid. Im sorry the reason i was confused is because i thought that was common knowledge

I've always put on my screen protectors, invisible shield/ghost armor/bestskinsever with a little water mixed with a touch of dish soap. if you don't get the placement perfect, it makes it easy to reapply.
I have absolutely no idea what you guys are talking about.
Does the water and soap dry pretty fast?

Don't lather it up lol it'll look blurry for a little bit. Also don't put it in stress... Like a tight pocket or anything immediately afterwards. I've always just done it at night. Throw it on the charger and when you wake up its good to go!

Yes, but Zagg has the "Orange Peel" effect which looks kinda bad on the phone when looking from an angle
Not sure if I am the only person but I like the dry screen protectors more. I am not sure what brand I have. All I know is it is a lot clearer than any wet one I have ever used. And it isn't tacky either. I have had it 2 months and I still have no noticeable scratches. I will find out the brand and post it.

Why do people use screen protectors? These screens don't get scratches. Not unless you walk around with diamonds in your pocket.

Same here found them on Ebay. 8 pieces for 3.00$. I'm still on my first one. I will also try and post some info.
If I were to utilize the wet application then I'd use distilled water alone. Tap and even bottled water contains too many minerals with the possibility of leaving behind hard water spots.

Wet applications are easier to apply but done right, both wet & dry turn out equally as good.
And quit using my pick up line (note sentence in bold)
Here's my story: I was sitting on my couch watching tv and mess in with my phone at the same time. I'm holding the phone in my left hand and decide to reach for the remote and change the channel. Unexpectedly somehow as I was reaching the phone slips from my hand and lands hard on my tile floor.
This was from couch height. The phone landed on a corner and then proceeded to fall flat on the screen.
I have no case (put off getting one..) and no screen protector. Just great.. I knew my phone was doomed.
I'm terrified I've heard about how fragile the s3 is and that gorrila glass 2 is all just crap and doesn't protect. I'm sure that my screen cracked at least a little. I pick up the phone... Nothing!
There's absolutely nothing wrong with the phone. The screen is not cracked there is no scratches or scuff marks everything is perfect. Mint condition
I'm very happy and can say that the phone is not that fragie. I think it can withstand some minor accidental drops.
Needless to say I have a case on the way, can't let this happen again!
Just thought I'd share.

I hate cases and haven't used one in many, many phones. I have had minor scratches and scuffs because of that but haven't broken a single one (*knocks on wood*). I am pretty cautious about my phones though. I just love the feel of a new smartphone and a case absolutely ruins it, even more so for the screen protectors. Every time I try out someone's phone with a screen protector it drives me crazy, feels awful and builds up grime/finger grease/dirt even worse than the glass.
I couldn't stand the thought of putting a case on such a sleek thin phone. I met a guy who came into my job who had an SPIGEN Ultra Thin Air case. It adds virtually no bulk to the device and looks nice. I doubt it provides tons of protection but definitely will help for drops on the corners.
I haven't put a case on any of my Android phones, but I just put a case on my SGS3 for 2 reasons. It keeps the camera from contacting (dirty) surfaces if I lay it on its back, and it keeps the buttons from getting accidentally pressed during handling and/or passing around to show off a picture or other screen.
When I got it, I mainly thought I would try it for the camera protection (I'm not so much worried about damage to the lens cover as I am about having to constantly wipe it off to keep the view clean). I only discovered the button protection benefit after putting it on and handling it for a few minutes.
To me, the button protection is the key advantage as every Android phone that I've ever had has been a bear to try to share/show off pictures on. Perhaps my G1 wasn't so bad, but my Nexus One, my G2, and my Sensation all had the issue that if I brought up a picture and handed it to someone they would inevitably hand it back in a few seconds because they had locked the screen - or I'd get it back on silent mode because they'd rested their thumb on the volume keys. This past weekend at a party it got so bad that when I handed it to someone they would treat it like I was handing them a radioactive snowflake - they'd be so afraid to touch it or hold it that they would then end up brushing the screen and hitting the soft keys and mess up what was displayed for fear of hitting a real button. Now, I think those issues will be a thing of the past, or at least much less of a problem.
My case is a Cygnett matte slim case from Frys. It gives a little more holding friction which is a good thing, and while that makes it slightly less easy to slide into a tight pocket, it isn't really "grabby" enough to make pockets a problem. It's more of a soft textured plastic friction than a rubberized friction.
That's awesome!!! Just at least get a gloss clear TPU case from Amazon... it's 100% clear and it protects your phone, as if you have no case on it! Don't forget a screen protector lol...

Downside is that the TPU case will no longer be clear in 3 weeks :/ It'll start to yellow.
You got lucky. Did the floor have carpet or a tile floor? I had the samething happend to me many years with my HTC T-Mobile Dash, it was charging, I picked it up and dropped on the carpet (maybe 3 feet) and shatterd the screen. Lucky for me I found a screen on ebay and replaced it for about $50. I can't imangine how much a new screen would cost for the S3.
It was a tile floor not carpet. And yeah I did get lucky...I can't afford to break this phone. Spent all my money on it. Still waiting on that white commuter case to ship though it's taking freaking forever!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
At least there was not any sustainable damage to it. With my luck, it would have shattered. Still, great news to hear that it has some resistance to it.
Dropped my SGS3 twice, face down both times. First time on a tile floor and the second time on concrete. This was prior to having any screen protector or case. I have two light scratches as a result, which are only visible at the right angle.
Can't really complain, was expecting the screen to break with the reports we've been hearing.
I would definitely cry if I dropped this phone. The S3 is too amazing to fall! I put a case on mine for that reason but I take it out every so often just so I can enjoy the nice slippery but sexy feeling of it naked lol.
I got the ghost armor kit for this phone in carbon fiber white on my white version. Not using the screen protectors at the moment.
It gives the phone a custom look and keeps one from getting scratches on the back and bezel.

I'm on my second S4. The first one the bezel cracked above the earpiece. Actually it was the chrome plate that cracked. Within less than 48 hours of having my replacement, the chrome is wearing off on the top left corner. I'm f*cking pissed. Not pissed enough to make my phone look like a turd with some bulky case though. And definitely not pissed enough to buy a htc lol. I contacted Samsung and t-mobile and they are both giving me the runaround. I baby my devices. Here's another thread with somebody with a similar issue. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41472121&postcount=1
Same, just got a chip on the bezel today. I had similar issues with the GS3, but there's not a whole lot you can do if you don't like to use cases like me, since the frame is just metallic-looking plastic.
Stupid Damn fake chrome. I only paid 600 bucks for this phone. Why can't I have real shinnyness.

just carry in pocket.. sometimes with keys or a pocket knife.. no damage yet.. but i will take causion to not have anything else in the pocket with phone i guess
i had mine for about 2 weeks just carrying my pocket before my ottor box and screen protector came in.
still looks brand newI would carry 2 sets of keys sometimes pocket knife or tools. I would also crawling on the ground under cars. I guess its just hit or miss with quality.
I got a body glove case for mine now. Ive found the phone feels much more sturdy with the extra weight of a case, and having a rubberized case really improves grip on the slippery plastic of the phone.

I ended up with a very small scratch on my screen also, about as long as a dime is wide. but I have no idea how it got there, I always keep my phone in my left pocket and keys in the right with my pocket knife on my right pocket using the pocket clip. this Gorilla glass is good for avoiding deep scratches I think but I thought gorilla glass 3 would prevent minor scratches like what I have. apparently not..

I never understood that. It's like having a supermodel girlfriend and then covering her up with a burka, it defeats the purpose. In 2 years when you upgrade to a new phone this old one will be in perfect condition but you don't really get to "enjoy" it.
I always go naked, who cares if it looks used when its time to upgrade, it just goes in my junk drawer anyway.

You're assuming that the phone looks better "naked" than with a case. You may think that, but others disagree, making the supermodel analogy flawed. 99+% of the enjoyment comes from the screen, not "touching the case", and a screen protector doesn't prevent that enjoyment (like having the supermodel wear a perfectly transparent bikini). A better analogy would be demanding that your supermodel girlfriend go barefoot all the time, even when walking on gravel, hot asphalt, and broken glass, or having her go naked in subzero weather. Hardly a good way to treat her.
Well today was the 1st time in about 2 weeks since buying my uag that i took the case off. And immidiately i noticed and the upper left corner there were scratches. I have a pretty good suspicion its from pressing the power button which then rubs the case agsinst the metal. You dont notice it when the case is on but this is redicilous. Definitely maked me angry i paid $35 for a case that ended up damaging my phone. Anyone else having this issue?

Nope, not a single scratch anywhere on my black One. I took my UAG completely off to check. Man this phone does feel great without a case, though!
No scratches or smudges on my silver one with my UAG case. Honestly, the black one scratches so easily that I wouldn't blame the case, I'd blame HTC for a design flaw. Especially because there are other cases that are known to scratch the black one. The official case from HTC has identical complaints. These scratches are the main reason why I decided to keep my silver one vs going with the black. The black iPhone 5 has similar issues.

these types of coatings really should be a bit more exotic...something like DLC which is incredibly hard and very resilient to scratches - i know because my watch is black DLC.
in terms of design they edges arent all that sharp but they could use a slightly bigger round in a few places for DLC to be safe.
DLC - diamond like carbon.
I had black iphone 5 naked and my wedding ring scratched the hell out of it in just one day. Just purchased this case as well, seeing this is disappointing but luckily i have the silver one. Usually i try to get two individual layer cases with much softer inner layer for this exact reason, but these cases usually are a little bulkier. thanks for the heads up though.

All I am saying is that if a soft rubber/TPU case is scratching the finish on a METAL phone, I just don't see how that can be the case's fault.
I just put mine on today. I'll check it often to make sure it isn't scratching.
Could it be because some dirt was on the phone when you put the case on? I really hope this doesn't happen due to a design flaw
My $.02
I had this case with my GS3 and it's not rough, and I don't think it's the case that's scratching your phone. I think it's the junk that just stuck in between the case and the phone. This can happen with any case, and it does. I always take my phone out of it's case every few days to clean the phone and the case. All it takes is one tiny piece of something rough to get in there and F*** everything up.
It sucks that it happened but I don't think it's the material that the case is made out of. I am still planning on getting this case.

If there's some defect in the case then probably. But I doubt it's the case. He most likely had some gunk in the case. Take one tiny spec of sand and place it between your case and your phone and that one tiny piece will jack your stuff up. I don't see how that piece of dirt/sand is UAG's responsibility unless they have some kind of "no dirt on the inside guarantee" which they dont.
I own a Black HTC One and two UAG cases that I swap out often and not a single scratch at all. It's not HTCs fault or UAG, the OP must of gotten sand or some other hard particle underneath that scratched it up.
I put the case on right out the package. Cleaned the phone pretty good. The case is very snug so its really hard to get dirt in there. Also i bought it directly from uag so its not a knock off. I honestly dont know what did it but i remember before i even saw the marks when hittin the power button i always thought it was odd how the whole case kinda pushed down.

1 month of use, and no scratches
Received my sp today in the mail and I must first say I was very weary cause I've only used wet apply for years now as I was horrible at dry apply. I used the instructions provided and applied the sp using the hinge method. They provide everything needed including the tape, cleaning cloth and squeegee. It took me less than 3 minutes and it turned out perfect with no bubbles. I love it and I must say it feels so much better than the rubbery feel u get from the wet apply screen protectors. I would suggest this screen protector to anybody looking for an easy to apply protector with a beautiful finish.

I also received my TechMatte screen protector in the mail yesterday. I am pleasantly surprised with the product. The clarity and feel are excellent as is the fitment. The kit was very nice and included everything you need for a successful and clean install. Much like the OP I had the screen protector installed and bubble free within minutes of opening the packaging. The included tape for performing the hinge method of installation was very grippy and worked wonderfully. The microfiber cloth for precleaning the screen is also very nice and a good size. I also installed their HD screen protector on my Note 3 and am extremely pleased with those as well. I would not hesitate to recommend TechMatte's line of screen protectors to anyone looking for a screen protector for their device. Excellent quality at a great value. And they lifetime warranty their products and give free replacement if your screen protector becomes scratched or damaged. :good:
Does it feel cheap? I'm using an Illumnishield and it's okay, but attracts finger prints easily. Kinda makes your tablet look cheap.
Are you guys using flip cases as well? I have poetic slimline and I don't find screen protector necessary with it. However, had I no flip case I would definitely get one of these.

I dont use screen protectors either. Same case you have. I use my tablet primarily as my cars entertainment center. It mounts right above my radio. I tether it to my s4 and have grandfathered UL data. I dont use even use the poetic case on it unless it leaves my car. I bought a small padded pouch for it to lock in my glove box when I get out of the car. Most of the time it stays there. If I take it somewhere I just pop it in my case. I dont feel the need for a screen protector honestly. The glass is already scratch resistent so.

Great product, thanks.

I got a freebie in the mail the other day and finally had the chance to install.
As far as install goes i used the hinge method. First time and it went smoothly. I got bit of dust under the protector near the corner but was able to get the corner up and cleaned the dust. I thought I blew it.

I got a pack of Asus screen protectors. They are supposed to dry application. I chose the matte one. A friend of mine dry applied the screen protector, and left a bunch of bubbles, and a couple small creases. I washed the screen protector with some dish soap and hot water, and did a wet application. There is no dust or debris under the screen protector,and the only bubbles are because of the creases.
No bubbles here. They easily push to the sides.

Is it possible the touch sensitivity diminishes when the temp drops? I use my nexus as a GPS/map set up mounted on my motorcycle. Over the last few days I had quite a few dead taps when I was out riding in 45 to 55 F temps.
