LOL! Me too. I a stressed out just thinking about mine arriving. Ugh, I may ask a friend who is good at this to do it for me.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TennesseeTuxedo:
I've had my Galaxy Vibrant for a year and half and my Galaxy 10.1 tab since July and I've never used a protective screen. They both get heavy use and I carry them with me all over the place and nary a scratch. There is a reason why they use gorilla glass.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] andrewkeith5:
I personally hate screen protectors. I haven't used one in I believe 6 years.

Given that it's kept in the Samsung Book Case, the only time I anticipate my Tab will ever come near anything that'll scratch it, is if it hits the floor, at which point it'll basically be a written off screen - and fingerprints? Well I have glasses anyway, so a spray or 2 of glass cleaner and a microfibre cloth once a week or so and everythings perfect.

I've also generally got quite dry hands, so with a screen protector on I can't 'swipe' across the screen because the plastic gives much more resistance than the glass of the screen.

Similar thing with my smartphone, nothing shares a pocket with it and so far I haven't had a single scratched screen...in fact the most damage I've done to any phone in the last 3 or so years is that I've lost the H and C from the back....
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] got556:
Some sort of screen protection is a must for me. I just find ways to scratch and break stuff.

I suck at applying the cling type protectors so with my DX and Rezound I have Otterbox Defenders and with the GTabs (I've had two...sold one and missed it) I have Gumdrop cases. Both these companies have a clear membrane for the screen which works well for me.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Agazzy:
Although I object to screen protectors because they mess up the beauty of the display, I decided to get one due to the fact that I hate the finger prints i leave on the screen. I went to the mall and installed ghost armor on it and so far I like it, a lot, surprisingly. The display is still as beautiful, no finger prints and it actually feels nice.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] samwest39:
it is supper hard to put one one it takes allot of time and paitnce i used my tab for a few months and i was fine without a saver i jest got one for fun but it is like heck to put on and i have a few bubbles in it lol
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BoulderGeek:
I love the skin-like feel of Zagg protectors. I now put them on all of my devices. No fingerprints, tactile feedback, and accident protection.

I put their leather skin on the back of my galaxy tab and the orange peel protector on the front. Feels elegant and solid.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Endoran:
Today will be the third time I am taking it back to ghost armor in the mall. So far at least 2 specks of dust under the protector each time...can they get it perfect or should I just get my money back? I freaking hate the mall by the way...

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Endoran:
They F'ed it up again. They went thru 2 protectors this time since I told them perfection or bust (which was their whole stock at the time). The guy told me it was imperfections in the screen protector...really...seriously? They don't refund their labor cost either, bunch of BS, I do NOT recommend ghost armor. I got what money I could get refunded and I'm never going back.

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ceejay83:
Wait

You pay somebody to put on the protector for you? lol

I got this : http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004Y09J68/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details

Took me one try to apply it and it's perfect. I applied it in a hot steamy bathroom
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] techjunkie702:
I think its a good idea to have a screen protector I bought the zagg shield it works great and I have no problems the touch sensitivity with my finger but it doesn't work so well with a stylus but it does still work. I hate having scratches on my screen and also it helps with the finger print problem they don't show up easy on my zagg shield.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] BoulderGeek:
Maybe you should get your mom to do it!

Bwahahaha! lol, mallrats...

Mine are all bubble free and flawless: Thunderbolt, ipod touch, galaxy tab 10.1, HP touch pad. But, I did those myself, not some acne ad kid at the mall.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cameraz:
I agree! Plus the Gorilla Glass is very durable. I have a book-style cover for my tab, and a small padded case for when I'm leaving home with it. I don't want anything that is going to interfere with the beautiful clarity of the screen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Matrix_19:
A tablet is not like a phone or an ipod, you aren't going to put it in your pocket. And if you want to go somewhere with your tablet, you have a case.

So how can you scratch your screen ? I don't have any screen protector and after 3 months, my screen is perfect
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] HawaiianLaker:
To me, as long as its not an anti glare protector it will not degrade screen quality. I know it has gorilla glass but why not have the protection? If I could give any advice on applying protectors I would say a couple things.

1, make sure there is absolutely NOTHING on the screen when applying, I bought a 8 pack of micro fiber cloths for 5 bucks from pep boys and they are amazing for cleaning screens.

2, when applying make sure to line up the protector as some devices have higher edges and it can keep the protector from laying flat.

3, lastly, when applying, if you do get dust under the protector don't freak out, as long as it is lined up correctly keep going. Once its completely on get some basic scotch tape, apply it to a corner of the protector that is closest to the dust and lift it up with the tape. Once it is high enough take another piece of tape and collect any dust that is either on the screen or on the protector and then lay it back down to make sure you got it. I have never had to throw away a protector due to it having bubbles or dust under it.

Hopes this helps someone. :-)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Gavin.csy:
I decided not to apply a screen protector because of 2 reasons

1. It's gonna be a real pain to apply it perfectly, any small bubbles or dust will just run it.

2. I actually cleaned the demo unit in the shop and it was still perfect, if the demo can stand the abuse it takes, i don't see why i can't take care of mine 100x better
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] lakigucci:
[Q]Is it necessary to have a screen protector? Pros & cons?

[A] No it's not. If you have a descent case, it will protect your screen sufficienty.

Pro's are stated in previous posts.

Cons also.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Gtabuser:
not at all

It is not necessary at all. You have guarilla glass that is suppose to be scratch resistant. Dont waste your time or money. Get a case and be done with it
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] shaolinx:
Tell that to the scratched 10.1 that I sold used on Ebay(yes I hate scratches that much).

Unlike other people, I don't treat them as fragile objects and use them pretty much in any situation that permits(as coffee plates, pillows on airplanes, paper weights, etc). That said, these things scratch EASILY.

Now I have a screen protector on the replacement and its well worth the cost($5 for two).

Buy one or you will regret it! ( I did :()
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ceejay83:
Scratch resistant doesn't mean scratch proof :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] 1337GameDev:
I bought one right away, one of those armor protectors. It works well (be very careful when applying it to the tab and be very clean) and i believe it is well worth it. You spent hundreds on a device, just to accidentally bump into an edge and gouge the screen? My protector has saved numerous scratches, even with me being careful. I would consider buying one. And yes glare and fingerprints can be greatly reduced (still visible sometimes) but its better than without.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] FC360:
I have a screen protector on my 10.1 which is doing it's job at protecting the screen however I found it pretty difficult to apply the thing and got some dust under it however as it's not where the screen is I decided to leave it. Some how the screen protector got damaged and now has what looks like a small cut so I'll probably replace it soon but I'm glad I used a screen protector because if I didn't the screen would probably have been scratched and I have no idea where the scratch/cut came from.

I'm surprised that case manufacturers don't include some form of screen protector in the screen. I remember these old phone cases which have a see through plastic that protected the screen they were pretty cool and they work with touch screens so I'm a little surprised no one has created a case like that
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] YoMaMa7467:
They're definitely a pro. I have a zagg full body sheild and never had a need for it too much. But there will always be that one moment where you will be glad you had one.

I was having some offroad fun and I lost my phone going about 50-55 mph on a Polaris RZR XP and i didn't notice till i I got back home. I used lookout to get the gps coordinates for the location of the phone. I borrowed a griefs phone that had gone with me and went to the general location thinking I was going to have to send it for repair. I found it about 10 ft off the trail face down on some rocks. The screen was in perfect condition so was the back along with the camera lenses. There were some dings on the sides of the body where the sheild doesn't overlap but I was very surprised and happy I bought myself one. Moral of the story BETTER TO HAVE ONE AND NOT NEED IT THAN NEED IT AND NOT HAVE IT.

Most only slightly diminish the screen brightness and hardly add any glare as my zagg sheild does. It's barely noticable on the screen and cheap to replace.

IMHO the screen on a phone is where most of the value lies. Go and try and sell a phone with a scratched screen withought having to drop the price.

So go get yourself one. The trade off is well worth it.

Hey guys , i really like the CM9 ICS , but do you guys think it is time to move ???

CM7.1 is just a battery HOG for me , Sammy build roms are laggy...

every thing has its disadvantages and advantages

so what's the Advantages / disadvantages of cm9 ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pk1025:
do you think or know if CM9 will solve the battery hogging issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma575:
Not sure, but surley if it has battery hog issues , then iam not going to CM9 , waiting for an expert reply though :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cammighty:
It's definitely better then CM7, and probably better then many other roms out there. At least try it out.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma575:
Thanks for your opinion ! , but can you please give me more details ???

sound ? , BATTERY LIFE ! , colors , gaming performance , LAGGGGG ??

these are my priorities

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingBeike:
Try tOnecosmic's ICS Port!!!

It is amazing, good battery life, very smooth, works great as my daily Rom

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1398223
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parhelion69:
I DON'T recommend going to ICS just yet (unless you want to beta test), builds are still too early, they are unreliable for everyday use and it'll be a while until we get a stable and good performing rom, CM7 is much better right now, but it may change in the future though.

ICS launcher FC a lot, gallery app and browser are laggy, and if you use live wallpapers everything slows down a lot, also there are many app incompatibilities now. I tried to like ICS but it's still in alpha stages (don't believe all those RC1 or beta labels, it's really not ready)

CM7 is great but yes, it's a battery hog. You could use a samsung rom (a custom ODEXED rom or stock are fine) and a custom kernel, I use semaphore with thunderbolt and it's very good performing, it can't touch CM7 in RAM management (isn't as good in multitasking), but videos, games play nice and samsung has a few good apps (it's dialer has smart dialing and its a looker, it can play almost all videos even h264 720p 60fps, music app uses very little battery since it's HW accelerated and its browser is as smooth as the iphone's, it can't be touched by CM7's), and you can delete all other samsung bloatware.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma575:
Thanks for your reply !! :) , i used to be on almost every new ROM lately but i couldn't handle the Lag even with using Thunderbolt and stuff , it was veryyy laggy and not responsive , iam now on CM7.1 and i have to say it is waaaaaay faster than the sammy build roms , too bad i get some force closes often and i HATE how low the music is , the music player sucks alot of battery though

my best Samsung experience was on Hybrid roms , stable , fast.

btw not all CM9 builds are bad ! you can try search for the AndroidSoul's review of cm9 , it looks veryyyyy smooth !

any recommendations for now ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma575:
Thanks so much man ! i have seen some videos for the onecosmic's port and it is veryy fast indeed !!!!

i wonder how long do you last with heavy usage / medium usage ?

what about standby ?? , iam so going to try this soon !
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingBeike:
With heavy usage I can use my Phone one day, but this was the same with Gingerbread.

When I only have low or medium usage, the battery lasts 1 1/2 - 2 Days, very good for a non final release. But most i charge my phone every night.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parhelion69:
I didn't watch any videos, I flashed both versions myself and ICS isn't ready yet, got too many FC, lags heavily on some occasions and isn't as fast as CM7 (we're talking about the version for the i9000 right? )

It'll reach great performance levels in the future I'm sure, but saying that it's perfect for daily use or better than CM7 is just going a little too far.

And have you tried a high LMK for sammy roms? Like 80MB or higher, you won't be able to multitask much, but performance will be very good for games or heavy apps
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma575:
I guess iam going to skip flashing CM9 then ! , iam an average-heavy user

- well , i have never tried messing up with memory but i assure you i have had troubles multitasking , and very very very bad response time on almost any sammy rom , even with overclocking i don't really feel any difference

all what i used to flash on sammy roms was base rom + custom rom on top of it + some tweaks like thunderbolt script , overclocking wasn't even noticed

i also used to tweak the colors
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkp1977:
According to this article on wmpoweruser.com, Microsoft is looking for Software Engineers for their backup, migrate and restore team which is to develop a backup solution for the next release (update) of Windows Phone. Sounds to me like we won't need any more homebrew hack solutions in order to have our app data, save games and SMS backed up. And it's a very welcome addition to an otherwise minor update for our devices. Even though backups should have been part of Windows Phone from the very beginning in the first place.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtboos:
I sure hope so. This is definitely something that needs to be implemented sooner rather than later. Especially if Windows Phone starts gaining any momentum. New folks will expect to be able to make backups of their phone. And yes thats something that should have been there at the start.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PG2G:
Its a job posting so it's definitely too soon for Tango. More likely Apollo. Tango is likely done already if the rumors of January/February devices from Nokia and HTC are true.

Apollo.also coincides with the time period that most 1st Gen buyers will be looking to upgrade their devices
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkp1977:
Sounds quite reasonable.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohgood:
absofreakinglutely !!

it will be interesting to see if they allow backing up the entire phone to sdcard... and if so, how they decide to finally unlock the sdcard so it can be transfered and dumped to a new phone.

this was one part of wp7 that looked like a terrible blunder for enterprise support. not being able to have a salesperson/ceo/whoever back up and running from a daily sdcard backup seemed like a gaping hole in the feature set.

I have a CDMA galaxy nexus and so far their aren't many roms out for it yet which is understandable since it was released way after the GSM version.

I just want to make sure I don't flash a GSM rom lol.

I am curious/confused to know which of Calkulin's UV (undervolting) zip files will provide the best performance and battery life. Can anyone answer and explin why?

P.S. Im running Calkulin 2.6 with ICS theme and ICS Launcher
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] solehjeff:
All phones are different you need to test each uv zip to see if your phone can handle that voltage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] solehjeff:
The more you undervolt the better your battery life but also a higher chance of getting freeze ups and reboots. So you need to test and find what voltages your phone will be stable at.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TNumber5:
New learner here... So out of the 50 75 or 100, which is the most undervolted?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] casawimill:
So with that being said, so I just start with the 50 and work my way up or just jump too 100?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] solehjeff:
100 would be the most uv.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] solehjeff:
I start at -100 and test the phone out and do some benching and play games to see how stable it is. If it freezes up or reboots just boot into recovery and flash -75 and repeat again.

I wrote a very pointed and professional letter to a few of the executives at vzw today. I directed the letter to David Small and cc'd the other higher ups.

He responded that he would take my suggestion under advisement. I feel good about the response. I will attatch a copy of my letter along with the response.
[HTC Rezound] triton302:
Guys... harassing HTC and Verizon isn't going to work. Period. I am willing to bet that Verizon sits back and laughs at the letters and emails they get in regards to unlocking devices, because it's NOT going to change. As much as I love Verizon, the locking of their phones is indeed selfish and a waste of a good product.

Everyone needs to calm down. If you don't want to wait, get a different phone. If you are willing to wait it out, at least let HTC secretly slip a method to unlocking it or wait for a developer to crack it. These multiple "contact HTC and Verizon" threads are pointless and a waste of time.

That is all.
