I have the otterbox defender case with the verizon glass screen protector that was included with the bundle at time of purchase. so far, so good. if this screen protector breaks i will immediately get the zagg glass screen protector. unless of course the zagg goes on sale soon

Yes. I use the Zagg and you need to remove the one o the Otterbox. The screen protector on the Otterbox is attached using a thin bead of silicone similar to the glue used to attach address labels to magazines.
Separate the two Otterbox halves and remove the protector by pushing on a corner of the protector from the outside. Once the corner is loose, slowly peel the protector off, trying to keep the bead of glue attached to the protector.

Although the Thunderbolts screen is supposed to be pretty tough, it is not gorilla glass.

Only down side is they take away the sharpness of the picture. I just run VZW screen covers. I've had this one on since launch day and it still isn't peeling or bubbling.
Um using the seidio protector. Its the only one I have used that hasn't dulled the look. Simple install.

Yea very good. I used the crystal clear one and I'm currently using that anti fingerprint one with the matte finish
Invisashield from zagg. Best screen protector hands down. Had one on my imagio for over a year and put it through all kinds of abuse. Its still on and perfect. Show me another screen cover that you can scratch the **** out of with keys and it won't even phase it. Put one on my TB as soon as I took it out of the box and fully expect it to stay on long past the life of this phone.

I got the crystal clear from steinheil and it is nice. But it has scratches on the protector. Thinking of testing another brand. Something more durable.

How is the matte finish? Does it take away from the image quality of the screen?
Not true my usb charging cable barley touched my screen and scratched it. Sad thing is I'm anal about my phone, tablet, tv, and gaming systems. I take better care of those then I do my girlfriend LOL.

I am also looking to matte finish protector.... will check out the mall today
My crystal Steinheil is amazing. Try that.
I hate my Invisashield with the "orangepeel" texture. It also has a kind of tacky-feel to it.
I bought my girlfriend a sonix (by Lenntex) screen protector 2-pack (clear and anti-glare) for her iPhone and they're great! The finish is really hard and super smooth. It feels just like the naked glass. I'm waiting for my Thunderbolt ones to deliver any day now.
I purchased the protectors from Verizon. They work fairly well I have several scratches in the protector but not the screen. After prolonged usage though I can't clean the protector all the way anymore. Going to have to take it off and put on the second one that came with the kit.
So far I have tried wirelessemporium.com TPU case and D3O case and both cause bubbles on screen protectors. It happens on screen protectors I bought in tmobile store and also on the ones I bought from amazon and wirelessemporium. Anyone knows of ANY case that is free from this fault?
thanks.
I posted in another thread that the D30 does not bubble up the t-mo protector, but today, it did. Only on the bottom left side. I think it has to do with how center and aligned you get the protector on the screen.
I can only see the hard snap-on cases not doing this. But, a user with those would have to chime in.
Thanks, I wonder what it is... Samsung vibrant and Galaxy S 4G did not have this problem..
I have a feeling that if you took a knife and shaved around the edge where the screen meets the D30 case (don't do it with it on the phone of course) it might remedy this problem. I haven't tried it yet but it's just a thought.
Have you tried a wet applied protector ? Those are 100x more resilient to peeling and bubbles...
I will get back with you hopefully today if not tomorrow . I got a white case off ebay . I hope it don't have this fault . Otherwise no more screen protection .

We had that issue all the time with d30s and the vibrant/gs4g, either cut the protector or use a zagg invisishield. I'm using the zagg and d30 without issue, i've also set up several coworkers and customers phones exactly the same with no bubbling.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
I'm using the zagg dry application along with the d30 case. Right after I installed the zagg, I popped it into the case and still no bubbling. I still see a line on the sp due to applying the sp tho using the squeegy
Make sure to force the lip over the screen protector in order to avoid the bubble effect.
Thanks for the advice
the diztronic tpu case and body glove diamond case that I have do not bubble up at all. I'm using an sgp dry screen protector.
I like the fish bone ones on eBay!

This black fishbone works sweet. I wish the d30 case did but makes the corner peel up

I 'm using Fishbone from e-bay and extremeguard screen protector.
First time with wet apply Screen protector. A little bit tricky to install but very nice results. Screen protector feel sticky on humid day...
I am currently using the CIMO S-Line Case TPU Case. I have some bubbles on the screen, but they aren't because of the case.
Am using the d3o case and screen protector from tmobile and it's not causing any type of movement or peel up on the screen protector, I've even removed the case a few times....

Same thing here. I think this is the best low profile case you can get. It's just hard as heck to get off the phone.

I installed the Zagg HD screen protector on my new Note 2 yesterday, and I will tell you it should not have been cleared for use with the Note 2. It is so soft that it feels like it's ribbed from using swype with the S-Pen... and I don't press hard at all. What's worse, it's effecting the accuracy of the S-Pen itself, as I find I need to press harder. I would not recommend this screen protector for use with our amazing device. Really looking like I might have to go naked unless I can find a very S-Pen friendly protector!
PS
Best Buy Mobile offered to exchange the protector for me and install it tomorrow, an offer which I am going to accept and deal with until I find the best alternative.
I have the extreme guard $4 body and screen. Everything works flawless.

I made the mistake of believing the saleslady at Best Buy Mobile that the new Zagg HD was just fine with the S-Pen... first mistake. I have a Rearth screen protector waiting for me at home once I return from this business trip... but ya, I am looking forward to the upcoming Glas protector as well. Any word on it's release date?
I was on the same boat I bought the rubber screen.. shouldve posted a warning but got lazy :/
And I asked sgp and all they said so far was that it was a wip... and blah blahs
The glass protector is the best doe cause it feels as it were naked <3
But ill make a thread when I hear about the protector

I'm using the zagg smudge proof protector from best buy and it is not rubbery, doesn't dent or scratch and is true full screen. So far I'm extremely happy with it. Your fingers slide across the screen better with it than naked also there's no orange peel effect either.
If anyone is interested IMHO this is the best zagg to put on.

I don't see a smudge proof version on the zagg website, do you have a link? Just checked out Best Buy tonight, they didn't have any either.

Yes, I'll find it and post back. It's the best screen protector I've used, and I normally don't like zagg for the orange peel and rubbery feeling.

I just received my diztronic case and absolutely love it.
Question is: for those of you who have this case, what screen protector do you use with it? And have you had any problems with the combination?
Thanks!

ZAGG HD works perfect for me. If you put the screen protector on after the case you can center it so it won't bubble up.
I was lucky with mine that I centered it fairly well before I got case and it doesn't bubble up.
The Zagg HD is the first screen protector I've bought that is noticeably smaller than the screen to accommodate cases.

I am having good luck with the Spigen screen protector. The ultra clear one is a bit thicker I think. The first few days it would bubble a bit in the corners. But now it doesn't bubble at all.

I have a glass screen protector and have no issues. What thickness screen protector did you get? I have a .23MM and have no issues. I'm sure you did, but I still need to ask, you did take the screen protector off of the Otterbox right? You aren't going with plastic on glass on glass, right?

I just ripped the plastic one off the otterbox and kept my glass on there. I don't need the dust protection, just the drop.
Me to but otter box would not fit . so I pulled glass one and called otter box for replacement case
Screen sensitivity decreases a bit after Zagg installed, but it's not bad when using with cheap TPU case. However, it may be frustrating when playing Angry Birds.
I think i found a solution. This app is not designed for this phone but it seems to work none the less.
