Does anybody remember the eBay seller who had the "rare Oreo edition" EVO 4g and was selling for $800? That's the first thing that came to mind here lol.
Nice mod BTW, I might try this.

I did this the day the white one came out.. I get so many compliments.. Definitely a great match.. The front bottons at night get that nice halo effect when they light up. I call it pandanizing it.. haha. Btw if you put the zagg shield on the back door it makes it feel much better than the slipper/glossy feel that it has without it.

I bought one and tried it once; the screen protector ended up getting scratched up pretty badly but the bullet didn't penetrate the phone. I'd definitely recommend one if you're out in the field or just wanna show off to your friends.

Yes! and we shot it with an AK-47! The bullet just scratched it up badly and fell on the ground! That PLASTIC screen protector can really stop bullets! That even military grade glass gets partially penetrated with!

If you want a bullet proof case, buy a tank and put your S3 in the tank.
Problem?

I don't need a case I ment the screen protector
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

To give you a serious answer, even if the screen protector itself was bullet proof, your phone would take too much shock and ruin all of the internal components anyway. So no, they're not for real.

Yes they are REAL!. They come with bulletproof vest also which the owner wont die after being shot at.
If the owner dies, your S3 will be stolen. Better buy a thief proof protector also.

I have these screen protectors as well. I actually shot it with some 9mm and some 5.56mm FMJ. Just scratched the protector. Didn't damage the phone at all.

I've bought a good few of hundred of them, its saved me a fortune what with the economy atm. I've been bullet proofing my car with them, have you seen how much companies charge for re-enforcement of body panels and ballistic glass these days!!! I've also taped 74 to a t-shirt to give me a cheap ballistic vest, I had to use tape as I could find anyway to pierce the plastic film even with a diamond tipped drill bit, so if you want to do the same make sure you over lap a bit, you don't want that round sneaking in between the screen protectors.
Due to the flexibility of the film, I'm thinking of making a whole range of items bullet proof pants to bullet proof umbrellas, plus much much more
Sorry, bit carried away and bored.

Ok, I couldn't resist commenting on this thread lol. So, I apologize ahead of time if my response isn't well received. First of all, I don't think the OP was serious about the screen protector being bullet proof on the phone (I hope) maybe just that by the protector itself being advertised that way in some way meant that it will withstand much more than the average protector?? Anyway.... To my point.... PLASTIC will indeed stop bullets.... And that "military grade glass"actually has a form of plastic in between the two layers of glass, just like your windshield.

Intentionally break phone

Has anybody intentionally destroyed their phone to get a refurbished one with little time left on their warranty? I want to know if there is a way I can successfully get a replacement from Sprint. My screen is in pretty rough shape, and based on what I've read, they won't replace it soley on a broken screen. (no digitizer damage) I know it's a bit underhanded, but I'm sure as hell not spending $270 on a screen replacement! Thanks in advance!
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

WTF? If you're worried about the condition of your phone, don't treat it like crap. Next time around, maybe think about a screen protector and a case instead of trying to scam your way to a new phone?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

Lol, a screen protector and a case were the first things I bought for my S3. My phone has fallen twice since then and I have been SO glad I invested in the soft shell rubber case. No damage to the phone or screen whatsoever

The screen replacement is only like 178.50 with next day shipping there and back from samsung. And how are you almost out of warranty when the phone hasnt even been available for a year and you have a 1 year mfg warranty.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2

Sprint won't help you at all since it sounds like you don't have TEP(they don't help anyway). And Samsung only covers manufacture defects and hardware defects. If the phone has physical damage then your warranty is voided with them

Samsung repairs busted screens under warrant its just not free, but it is about half the cost it would be out of warranty. Its not a bad deal since they replace the entire glass/digitzer/lcd assembly and then reinstate your warranty afterwards:thumbup: and its next day shipping there and back so you're only without your device for 3-5 days max. Typical turn around is 3 days, day you ship, day they receive, day they ship back. However if they are backed up sometimes they have it in their possession for a couple days while they do the repairs

$200 is still cheaper then new phone.. Unless you find a good one on Craigslist with Clean ESN.. Screen protectors are a must! lol.. First thing that went on my phone.. have some scratches in protector, screen under is beautiful.

I'm an old iPhone user and I know with the iPhone if you cracked your screen, you could buy a replacement kit and spend no more than $50 bucks or so. Is there no replacement screens for the Galaxy S3?

There are, but the glass is fused to the display, making it extremely difficult to replace just the glass.

Assuming you have insurance it'd be $150 for the deductible. If you don't then that's you fault. Get a protective case next time.
Stop trying to look for a illegal way out.

I searched everywhere and even contacted a couple companies with no luck. Everyone says the demand isn't high enough for them to profit

I found a couple from china via aliexpress.com.
They aren't horribly expensive, but 15-25 day delivery to the US. I ordered a pair yesterday, so maybe I'll have 'em by xmas
Anyways, thought I would share in case anyone else found it useful.

I ordered one from ebay last week, will inform later once arrived:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/251632830739?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

bought from aliexpress.com. from the seller who ships out in 3 days. got it today (took just over a week) . it was well packaged but "'v500" was hand written on the box.
I opened the package to find a alcohol wipe, cloth, sticker and the "glass" ... it actually seems more like a thick plastic than glass though.
it was hard to tell that it had the film on the side that gets applied to the tab glass. but it was there. one oval cutout for the front camera and light sensor.
the dimensions are spot on. really good fit. feels much batter than the plastic film I had before. not sure how long it'll last but so far seems like it's worth the $17.xx.

Samsung official S-View Cover and a Bodyguardz tempered glass screen protector...

I'll get in on this. I am in Limbo myself for this waiting to see what to do. I just ordered a back up battery, and am worried about getting a case that is too hard to take on and off (not that I will necessarily be swapping them out all the time just when needed). But also waiting for a nice battery case, or ZeroLemon to come out with their battery. So I might just pick up a $15/$20 case on Amazon to hold me over. Interested what cases other people have currently and how they like it?
