[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] amcl:
I have the aluminum bumper and from the way you have to slide the top piece over the screen, it might not work with Glas. Also, the bumper scratches the hell out of my regular plastic screen protectors.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] expy:
Here is my tale of failure and eventual success at applying the Glas.t. I had initially tried the AT&T Moshi SP, It was easy to apply but I could not stand the micro screen door effect it had on small text. So I ordered the Glas.t and made my preparations for a perfect application. I came up with my list of things to do to get it right the first time.

1.) The hot shower trick in the bathroom sounded genius to keep dust down.

2.) To keep with the clean room theme I added latex gloves.

3.) Wet hair and face to keep body "dust" from contaminating.

4.) Small plastic "pusher" to gently move the SP around before setting it.

All were huge mistakes on my part as:

1.) Ran the hot shower to long and the bathroom turned into a sauna. It may work well on some screen protectors. With the Glas.t the adhesive seems to have been affected by it.

2.) The latex gloves are coated with a powder! Huge fail for my intelligence.

3.) Wet hair and face in a sauna drip water!

4.) The plastic pusher worked well but by that time extreme failure made it a mute point.

My next post will be of how I did finally get that perfect application, with a second brand new Glas.t of course.

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 AM ----------

My first attempt at putting on the Glas.t screen protector failed but I sucked it up, ordered 1 more and tried again (another $35.00!).

This time I worked from my desk. I cleaned the screen with the supplied alcohol and micro fiber. I then at my leisure applied enough strips of scotch tape to the screen to create a whole screen dust lifter to be pulled off right before it was time to set the Glas.t. I think (not scientific) that the process of cleaning the screen right before applying a screen protector generates enough static to attract dust. Putting on and removing the scotch tape not only removes any left over particles it also may discharge the screen a little. I then used two pieces of tape to create lifting tabs on the new Glas.t to be laid. After a couple of practice runs I picked up the Glas.t by one tab and removed the backing. While carefully holding the naked Glas.t I removed the scotch tape as a whole unit and quickly and gently set the Glas.t in place. After a little maneuvering to get it squared up I pushed down in the middle and the adhesive did its thing. I am happy to report absolutely no dust or air bubbles. There does seem to be a lack of adhesion at some of the edges though.

I think the Glas.t is a fine product with room for improvement. If it is more or less meant to be a permanent screen protector for the life of the phone I would think a stronger adhesive would be better. The edges not sticking is a defect in my opinion.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mariol66:
I just put mine on. All I did was turn the phone side ways and lined up the speaker cutout. Laid it on and pressed the center and the rest was done by itself. Any air bubbles you can work out with the squeegee or just applying pressure to the area. The feel of this things is fantastic. Its as if nothing is there andmy elago case is unaffected. This is top notch stuff well worth the $35
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
Looks like I will be ordering one of these. I can get myself an invisible shield for like 11 bucks ... does everyone else feel it is worth the about 2.5x more for it?

It seems pretty good from what I have seen here. I use the flip case so that should not effect it at all here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] blnypny:
If you can get it installed without any dust or air bubbles it's totally worth it. I tried using the squeegee to get all the tiny bubbles out, some went away and others didn't. I assumed they would go away with time but nope. In hindsight I would have used tape to help during the install like one of previous posters did.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] circuit.007:
I was thinking about ponying up and buying one of these , but then i also saw that spigen also had an ultra oilophobic one. has anybody tried that? Is it good as this one?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
Yea , i am going to have to try it out and see how it goes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MarkStinger:
I have the Ultra Oleophobic version and it works great. I have not tried the Glas.t so I really can't compare but it does not pick up many fingerprints and it is super easy to clean. You also get two SP's with the Ultra Oleophobic instead of one with the Glas.t.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ray_Banci:
Can anyone with an actual case such as a speck candyshell or a casemate tough actually confirm that the glass t. Will work?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] khaytsus:
I wanted the Glas.t, but with the "loose edges" and the cases I like.. Decided on the Spigen oleophobic, should get them in a few days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
I just ordered a glas.t and should see it in a few days. I use the flip cover anyway (love the white on brown look) so hopefully it does ok in there.

Well , since amazon still has not shipped it (2 days later...) hope it gets shipped soon. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mark1s:
Received mine today, I'm a total noob when it comes to aliging the screen protector with the phone and I had to remove it the first shot. Got it on the second shot but now I got some smalls bubbles on the screen and one spot with a small dust under the screen, I hope for the best but it mights be my first and my last premium screen protector of my life. =\
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
mark , order from amazon ? take a few days to process for some reason ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mark1s:
I bought it from Ebay to save on the shipping, took about 3 weeks to receive de package. (I live in the north of NYC).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
ok , thank you. Can't wait for mine. Tough keeping this thing super clean but it still is. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Budge:
Other than being made of glass, can anyone tell the difference between the Glas.t and the oleophobic screen protector. I haven't seen either one, so I'm curious to hear from anyone who has seen them both and had a chance to compare them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kaishi00:
Apparently I suck at applying screen protectors, and I have 1 dust bubble right in the middle of my screen, think it's worth buying another? Or is my OCD just completely unjustified.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
Well , still waiting for mine to ship out of amazon , but emailed them and getting it rushed now for free so im happy... if it actually does. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dcfella:
Ordered from Amazon yesterday, and just came in the mail today thanks to Amazon prime shipping. I'll put it on tonight...hopefully with no issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
yea , dc , said it should have shipped monday... never shipped. Saw they were sold out until 3/30 ... emailed , said it should be delivered now by friday... didn't ship today :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dcfella:
Amazon's usually pretty good with shipping. I ordered the Elago white case on monday and the GlasT yesterday. Both arrived today at the same time. Their tracking is sometimes inaccurate too. My estimated delivery date for the elago was tomorrow, but it arrived a day early.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
Yes , same here. This time it was not that great. (GF also ran into issue since they charged her for shoes that ended up getting canceled without her knowing)

Well , doesnt happen often but I will play the waiting game for mine. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] malimal:
yes scotch tape to remove dust under screen protectors. There are some videos on youtube showing how to do it.

Just got my Note, and after reading those post ordered the glas.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kaishi00:
yea but apparently the adhesive on this wouldn't hold if i took it off and take the dust out and try to put it back on again. at least that's what i gathered, unless someone already tried.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dcfella:
Just put mine on. I've put on dozens on screen protectors, both wet and dry application. Just my luck, the one time I really want to get it down the first time around, I mess up.

I was aligning the GlasT with the screen, when it just started adhering to the screen, which I didn't expect yet. The alignment was way off, so I had to pry it off, and readjust. Apparently, while readjusting, some dust got between the screen and the GlasT. I tried to use scotch tape to get it off, but that added yet more dust lol. So now it's on, it's aligned, but it looks like crap compared to the ebay ones I just took off. Oh well...lesson learned.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ScooterG:
Simple instructions:

Unpack contents of box.

Use towelette to clean the screen.

Let the screen dry 90-95%

Use included micro fiber cloth to clean the entire front of the phone.

Repeat.

Repeat.

Repeat.

Peel off tab one with the protector hovering over the screen.

Peel off tab two with it facing down to the screen, still hovering over the screen.

Use micro fiber cloth to give the entire front one last time. Keep the sticky side facing down! This step should take three seconds.

With two hands (sets of fingers), align the screen and slowly let it drop on the screen.

Push lightly with one finger... Could be middle, could be towards the top or bottom...depending on how you let it settle... On the glas.t. to get it to spread across the screen.

Quickly use the supplied rubber thingy (chingadera) to aid in spreading the protector around.

If I could have done mine over, I would have set it 1/4 to 1/2 mm more to the right.

It was a very easy install. CLEAN YOUR SCREEN!

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] dcfella:
I cleaned my screen thoroughly before putting it on. The adhesive started to spread before I even pressed down on it, which is why I had to readjust, which is also when dust from the air got in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] just_visiting:
I always peel off the front protector off last.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ScooterG:
I usually do to. Since this is a rigid protector I didn't see any use in leaving it on and then risk picking a corner or edge up when taking it off after application.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kaishi00:
mine was clean -.-, there's 1 dust in there, just sad that it's right in the middle of the screen, i could deal with it if it was off to a side.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
Well , mine came in today. Put it on and there was one little hair on the edge so slowly peeled it up / cleaned and put it down again.

Final product: One little little hair on the top bar around the clock (pressed it down so it is not too noticeable when on and that is all. It is beautiful and clean. I'm happy happy. :)

Did the tape method to remove the hair and have to peel up a few times and now I am 99% happy. Setting a book on it for now to add some pressure to it. Since I peeled from one side mainly (bottom right) it does not stick "super" great , but it is working good (put a book on the edge to help it)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] knokstudios:
One thing that never fails for me is to do it in the bathroom right after you or someone takes a shower. All the steam and moisture in the air will settle all the dust particals and they wont float in between your protector and phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
Yea , it was a little cat hair that hit the edge and folded in.

But now the screen section is about 100% clear and clean. Just a few bubbles and things in the white but I can't see that at all really.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lactardjosh:
Those damn cats. ;)

Our guest room is a cat-free zone as a courtesy to our allergic friends. I went in there to put mine on and it worked out great.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] E_engineer:
Hello everyone, I have been reading all of these forums since I got my phone a week ago and it is very helpful as I am a defector from Apple.

I got my phone a week ago and immediately put on the invisible shield. Which I quickly found to be a mistake due to the s-pen not working very well on it. That was before I was looking at these forums and saw the Glas.t sp. I just installed mine a few minutes ago and it went on okay except I was slightly off. So I lifted the sp up to adjust and then put it back down again and it looks great on the phone. However, bottom right corner doesn't seem to want to stick, I assume this is my fault because that's where I lifted the sp to adjust.

My question:

I have one small bubble in the middle of the screen, can't even see it when the phone is on. The directions state that any bubbles will go away after 1-2 days. I searched this thread and see people talking about bubbles but not if they go away over time. Can anyone who has a small bubble in the middle of the screen verify if the bubble goes away or not?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] slowpc:
Mine has been on for 24 hours and i didnt get air bubbles under the screen. I have a little thing of dust/hair at bottom but it is fine by me. My bottom right was not sticking well as well but I used some extra pressure to push it down a bit more. That worked for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] circuit.007:
I just applied mine, but i have several super micro bubble near the bottom of the screen. Kinda disappointed since this was such a expensive screen protector and i got bubbles underneath it. But the quality i will admit is amazing, does not feel like there is a screen protector on it at all. Praying the bubbles will go away.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] VonEsch:
I've had mine for about ten days, the small bubbles are still there, but you have to look for them. Works flawless with s pen
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] circuit.007:
I was just testing my screen and noticed it is unrepsonsive unless i put a lot of pressure force into it. Its manly near the bottom right corner. like for the app drawer if i just tap it like usual nothing happens i have to really press hard for it to respond. Same with the backspace key on the keyboard. This kind of bugs me, maybe its just because im not used to the new screen protector yet?

But yeah the s-pen works great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lactardjosh:
I'm not convinced that this is because of the screen protector. When I first got the phone, it took me a couple days to get used to the way I had to press the capacitive buttons. Coming from a Captivate, with buttons that only worked if I hit them a certain way, it was different on the Note because they actually worked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] class01:
Just put my second glas-t on today this one came out even better. Main piece of advice is clean the crap out the screen before the install

Hope this is the right section...

I use the Samsung preinstalled audio recorder on my SGS2. It's a nice app, but when it crash, or when i put in pause a recording, instead of stopping it, and for any reason i connect the galaxy to the pc as mass storage memory, the unfinieshed recording file result in a corrupted .3ga file (to be exact, the file remain in the root of the memory with the following name: ".voice.3ga"). This file can't be played. And as a .3ga, i wasn't able to find a repair tool that works fine with this extension/codec. But i'm sure the audio file is stored in this ".voice.3ga", because it is 26 mb.

Did you ever experienced crashes of Samsung recorder during recording action? How can i recover the corrupted ".voice.3ga" file?

Please help me: it is an important recording!

I also tried changing the extension .3ga to .mp3 just to use mp3 repair tool (for example to delate the header and give a clean to the file), but it didn't work. Only a specific software that repair .3ga file can work (or, at least, a workaround to recover/close correctly the record on the Galaxy S2), but i found nothing until now.

Still in trouble...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dariusjavidan:
Same issue

Hi,

I am having the same problem. I recorded our concert last Saturday on my Samsung Galaxy S3 using the standard recording application, which I have used many times before.

As usual the file has a .3ga extension and it is 100 Mo, which is realistic for about 2 hours of recording.

When I rename it on my computer to .3gp and try to play it with the VLC player, I can see that its length is 1 hour 57 minutes. But VLC does not play it. No error message.

I did the exactly the same procedure last Thursday and last Friday: I can read those previous recordings without any problem. so something went wrong with this last recording and I am trying to repair the file.

I have tried to convert the file to another audio format using a converter online : it did not work. The target file is empty.

I have also tried to repair the file by renaming it as .3gp and using a program called Video Repair with a reference file (the recording of the day before). No success. I get an error message with "movdump.exe".

So right now all my trials to repair this audio file have failed.

Has anyone already experienced this problem... and solved it?

Darius
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gemini 666:
I never found a solution for the corrupted files. Now i have SGS3, and seems to suffer of the same problem.

What i can suggest for the future recordings, to avoid this problem, is to ensure that the recording app is not in background, or at least that android "understand" that the recorder app must have priority in ram allocation. Because i think that is the lack of ram in this 2 devices (coupled with poor ram management by android OS) that cause the issue. So what can you do to minimize the issue?

1) if possible take the recorder app active (not in background)

2) if you need to put the appa in background, use the home buttone to go to the recent app, and tap on the recording app. Do this twice, and android will give an higher priority to the recording app, also if it at the end of this procedure you press "Home" and the recording app goes in backgroung. I guess that in such way android understand that when it reallocate ram from unused apps, it hasn't to recall it from recording app.

3) close telephone (better to close all connections) and mute the volume.

4) do not open (too many and too heavy) apps.

Sorry if i can't help more.....
