[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rayandreas:
none at all! it has been very nice!!! This was a great find.thanks!

yes, it will have smuges but that is to be expected because it feels like your native screen. ive never got lines from my s pen, I have scratched the screen protector a tiny bit, but, again, im in sheet metal/air conditioning so im kind of rough. I cant re iterate enough how close this feels to your native screen but with added protection.

now, i better get a free screen out of all this...lol! :cool:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ElAguila:
I decided to try this instead of the usual Bodyguardz. I got it on just fine. I know that the micro bubbles will disappear in a few days. I am seeing a lot of rainbow effect. Will this go away as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ajsam4u:
Yes it will away.

I am using for almost for last 5 weeks and undoubtedly it is the BEST SCREEN PROTECTOR ever for any cell phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] magnumforce2006:
Installed this thing Monday and still have a 3 little bubbles.... Can I expect these to go away, or should I chalk that up to a bad installation on my part? (i tried following the directions to the letter.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ajsam4u:
It will go away for sure. just use your nail to try and keep pushing it to the side.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bklam:
Just got my clearplex today. Ordered back on June 26th, obviously the first one didn't arrive so they sent another one on July 26th. After the installation i noticed that in the middle of my screen protector, there is a domed shaped area that resembles almost like an inverted car ding. I guess i'll wait and see if it goes away, if not the search continues for a good screen protector.

Edit: My own fault, there was a big enough dust particle that elevated the protector from the screen, one heavy push with a credit card and it went flat.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rg1973:
Thanks hope its a good one

Shipping

Anyone know how long it usually takes to ship I got no tracking info

NM found it when I went back to site and actually read it "USPS International First-Class does not provide a tracking number and can take up to 3 weeks to arrive"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Marcusw882000:
Thanks! I saved almost $9 on two protectors.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mazdamiata210:
Just got my tracking number today, shipping from Sandy, UT so let's see how long it takes. I currently have a Zagg on my phone so I'll give a little review once I get it installed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mazdamiata210:
I got my clearplex screen protector earlier today. Just installed it and it's drying as I type this. I will say it feels like the plastic ebay 2$ screen protectors but lets hope this is worth it... I'll follow up this with a review once it completely dries in 3-5 days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PomPom45:
I received mine almost two weeks ago. The protector had seemed fine at first -- before applying it on the screen. However, when I was through with the installation and turned the phone on, I noticed two faint scratches on it. They were glaringly visible against any white, or particularly bright background. I emailed ClearPlex twice over the past week about the defect, but they never replied. I tried calling the number listed in their website today; it only kept going to a voicemail. Their support just isn't much caring, I'm afraid. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ajsam4u:

Ordered Mine

Took a chance on this protector. Hope I don't have any issues like some have posted. Will report back once it is here and applied. Wish I had paid more attention to the post with the coupon code for a discount. Oh well! Everyone keep providing feedback on this item. Thanks for the initial link for the item too I had never heard of this protector. My note has been protector free since I got it but I really wanted something to protect it so finally decided to purchase.

EDIT: decided to try contact the above Brad Bacigalupi to see if he would refund me the 15% discount since I forgot to put the code in at checkout. Doesn't hurt to ask lol He was very prompt with his email reply and said he would refund the money I would have saved if I would have remembered to put in the code and it would take about 3-5 days to receive my refund. I thought that was pretty awesome of the company to help with my stupid mistake. Some companies would state "too bad your error". So far happy with the customer support, we will see how the product is when it arrives.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PomPom45:
Thanks for the info, ajsam4u. I'll try that.

For pictures, LINK

I ordered it on August 16th from their website, and I (in Vancouver, Canada) received it on August 30th. It came in a simple cardboard box and the content was well packaged and protected.

At first, the screen protector seemed like cheap clear plastic ones that you can buy from ebay for $1 each. But it felt slightly thicker, but not as thick as Zagg invisible shield.

I was VERY disappointed to find that the edges of the screen protector was already slightly lifted from backing. It seemed like it was due to how the film was cut. I was hoping that it wouldn’t matter when I apply it onto the phone.

I had followed the Youtube installation guide, and it was fairly simple. Exactly the same procedure as Zagg invisible shield. No dust, no bubble, clean installation.

At first, everything seemed fine. The film is very smooth. I couldn’t stand invisible shield, because my stylus/finger would stick. On Clearplex, my stylus/finger glides. No tinted look, colors are clear and crisp. Apparently, I need to wait 5-7 days for the spray solution to completely dry, but it has been less than 24 hours and it looks fine.

Now, I have one MAJOR and one minor issues.

1. As you can see from the pictures, the edges will not stick flat on the screen. ALL around the phone, I have the film lifted up slightly. I think it was due to how the film was cut. The film “warped” slightly around the edges as it was cut, and it will not stick flat. Eventually, dust will get underneath and the gap will get bigger and bigger.

2. The film is supposed to be “Scratch resistant”. I have had it in and out of my jeans several times, and already, in less than 24 hours, I have many hairline scratches. I will go home and see if I can take a picture of these scratches with my digital camera.

Scratches are expected, with any screen protector, even glass ones. But, lifting edges are unacceptable. Obviously, I will contact Clearplex and see what they say. At the moment, this product is 4 out of 10. If I got a bad film and a new film sticks flat, I think it could be a 9 out 10 product.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jeutaw:
love mine!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mazdamiata210:
So I said I would write a review but it seems like ddochi11 2 posts up did it for me. I got the screen protector pretty quick, 2 days I believe. I took off my zagg which I liked but it started to peel away so I needed to replace it anyway. After peeling the clearplex off the initial contact sheet it was on it just felt like the cheap 2 dollar for ten screen protectors you find on ebay. I very HIGHLY doubt that this will stop any damage to my screen. If the company is willing to pay for a new phone I'd gladly test it out but I'm not going to intentionally break my phone.

Install was pretty simple, just like any other wet install would go. Spray, squeegee out any bubbles and wait for it to dry. After 3 days all the bubbles are gone, however the edges look like they aren't down. Just like ddochi11 had said it looks to be the way it was cut (laser?) warped the film.

I had a single air bubble in the middle of my screen so I used my credit card to push it out and ended up putting some small scratches in my screen protector. If it scratches that easily then I really don't think it's going to protect against a shot gun like the video shows. I'd like to buy another one and put it on a piece of glass and test it just to see if it's really true or just a gimmick.

Now as far as "feeling like glass" it really does feel like there's nothing on your phone and it looks that way also. There's no orange peel effect like on the zagg. However it looks like it was cut slightly smaller then it should be. I have about a 1/16th inch gap between the protector and the edge of the screen on all sides.

All and all I have to say that it's not really worth the 14$ or whatever it is for the clearplex when I can go on ebay and buy a pack of 6 protectors for 1 dollar and change. Sure they might not be as good quality but for a fraction of the price I can get 6 and just swap it out if it ever gets damaged. Now if I can shoot my phone with a shotgun like in the video and nothing happens then I'll truly be impressed and eat my words but until then I am disappointed and may ask for a refund so I can get my zagg replaced.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Marcusw882000:
I received mine and when I went to peel it off the backing it ripped right at the top, it looks like the cut wasn't complete. I emailed Clearplex so I will see what they can do for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:
I've get a clarplex on my phone and its ok.... It has a lot of lines from my soe n but other than that is ok
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bradl79:
cool i work for att also, what do u do? btw i think i will try this screen protector too, i tried zagg and the glass one, i loved the glass one, but it kept coming up. i had 3 of them and i know i installed correctly they just started lifting up on the sides.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ddochi11:
Update :

I had contacted Clearplex (email address few pages ago), and they had advised me to keep pressing down on the edges for few days. It got a little better, but I still got white space all around the phone. They are now sending me a new one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] JGuinan007:
Got mine about a week ago and it's just like a a cheap ebay one protector is cut too small leaves gap all around could have been made bigger also at top was not cut properly from sheet so when I took off it got small tear on it applies well after a few days still have 3 small bubbles near the sides that won't push out after a week (not really a big deal) at night with screen off you can see rainbow effect not issue with screen on or in day light but under white light with screen off looks very psychedelic as far as scrachting after a week of use with it constantly in and out of my pocket not a single scratch then again my 1st ebay one didn't scratch did notice one of my notes is on indented on the screen though yet not scratched there is no orange peel and its crystal clear and has great feel when using the screen with finger but again so did the 3 from ebay for $.99 going back to glas t
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] mazdamiata210:
That's exactly how I felt. I could get 6 of them on ebay for 1.39 and it's the same thing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rg1973:
I just emailed them I too have white scratches from the credit card taking bubbles out.we will see if I get a answer back

Update ...they sent me a brand new one..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] impimms:
Hated It

After finally deciding to use a screen protector on my Note (no scratches yet but bound to happen eventually) I decided to try Clearplex out too. It isn't cut big enough making it have a border all the way around, so the edges don't stick down well. Also the top isn't cut correctly either around the sensor, camera etc. The bubbles etc. went away but I had bad rainbow effect. Made my screen feel less vibrant/bright like it was cloudy. Felt ok but seemed like less responsive and I could see marks being made already with light use of the s-pen. I used a credit card and wrapped it with the felt cloth to remove the bubbles. I still had some bubbles in two days so again used the card and also my finger nail. Noticed that I had major scratches on the screen protector the next day (I believe from my finger nail). Ended up that I hated it and couldn't stand it being on my screen any longer and removed it. Oh I so wish I had that $16 back!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Marcusw882000:
I also regret this purchase.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:
This is the worst screen protector I've ever used.....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LArifleMAN:
Well I was going to get one of these, but considering the reviews, not so much,
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:
Like an above poster said, its cut way short and the top right is cut weird where the sensors are, plus the second you pull out your spen you'll put deep scratches in the screen protector. Though i do like the feel of it, ill probably never buy from them again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ddochi11:
So, after I contact Brad from Clearplex, he promised to send me a new one on September 5th. I still haven't got it.

I contacted him again and yesterday, he promised to send one with tracking.

At the very least, Brad is prompt with his replies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Dillsnik:
I also came in to say the one I have been using has scratched rather easily. I think it even came scratched.

I love the idea that it protects the screen if there's a drop, but hard to compromise the clarity.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] k03703:
I've been using Rearth Ringbo ultimate clear plus since May, so far so good, I use the s-pen lightly, but the cover doesn't feel sticky and have "glide" feeling. Bought it before from Amazon for $10, but looks like they increase the price..... this is installed dry, no spray.....
[General Questions and Answers] tjamzt:
I have found lots of apps like MultiTasking Pro and Task Switcher that have the multitasking functionality I want for my One S, but none of the can be bound to the App Switcher soft key. Does anyone know of an app like these, that can be bound to the App Switcher button, replacing the default HTC switcher.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tectas:
I don't know if anyone has noticed it (and sry if it has been mentioned before), but at stock kernels I get about 60 fps (but I guess only because it is the end of the scale where it stucks almost all of the time) with nenamark2 (Rom:wanamlite 1.3) with custom kernels only about 40 fps (same frequency) (hits also higher values while benchmarking, but only for about a second), overall benchmarks hit higher scores at customs though (but just slightly, I guess the "weaker" GPU performance is a reason for that, otherwise they would blow stock away).

Can someone explain that to me pls, did Samsung release a slightly different source to the one they use themselves or where is the culprit for this?

I know it isn't noticeable at daily use and heavy 3d games still work like a charm and it is also no offence against any kernel developer, I appreciate their work very much and still will use custom kernels, I'm just interested how it comes and also point anyone able to do it (if it hasn't been noticed already), to it that he/she maybe can improve it.

Edit: Ok, now i'm also getting only 40 fps at the stock kernel, anyone knows what could be the problem?

Flashong a stock rom now to see if it solves it.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Yunosuke:
I love everything about this phone except...pinky tint at the bottom 1/5 of the screen!

It's especially visible with white background. It seems that the bottom 1/5 part gets very warm when the phone is doing lots of stuff or charging battery and I think that's when the pink tint is really gettung, well pink.

I will probably exchange it once the supply gets better and my local att store gets stocks. Hopefully you guys are not experiencing this.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] samven582:
what color did you get?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] werked:
I have the white and have not noticed this.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Bruce Lee:
How dark is the tint? Like how noticable is it?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] americasteam:
Same here.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Yunosuke:
Thanks guys for the reply. I've got blue one. It's barely visible as my friends couldn't see it at all lol. I have really good eyes, or I have to say "trained eyes " that I do graphic arts stuff everyday. Color accuracy is critical for my job.

My S2 had blueish tint but it was uniform color temperature for the entire screen. I'm currently using app called Screen Adjuster to mitigate the issue but it doesn't solve the problem because of the uneven color temperature. I really think that the heat at the bottom part really changed the tint permanently.

I'm happy that you guys don't have such problem!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Bruce Lee:
Have you contacted samsung about it? I am curious on how they would address it.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] uranis:
I have some ink blob close to the middle of my screen that's visible at night in a dark room. It's very annoying and definitely swapping it out hopefully next week. I have a blue gs3.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Sher The Love:
Mine has a couple of those too. From reading the international thread, it seems somewhat normal with amoled. There's a chance you will exchange it and get once that's worse....

Edit: I shouldn't say normal with amoled. My nexus s doesnt really have it. My nexus s is also almost completely black while the galaxy s3 isn't as dark of a black
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] cashyftw:
I have no tint or anything in that matter, I don't see any blobs like I did on my s2
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Yunosuke:
Thanks! I'm really hoping that the odds are very rare!

Until my exchanged unit arrives, I'll just enjoy this beautifully built phone!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Zackaroli:
Oh man I thought samsung noticed this issue with the intl version.. is it possible to use the SG3 without a simcard? I mean can I access the applications / browser using wifi without having a simcard in? I am asking because I ordered one from AT&T and I will unlock it, I don't want to unlock it then send it back if it has issues..
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] PMad:
If you want to see if your phone has these blobs, do the following

Go into a pitch black room

Set your phone brightness to auto

Open camera app

Turn off flash

take a picture of pure darkness

View the picture in the gallery, and tap it once open so all the bars and menus go away showing nothing but the image

Inspect the screen up close, you may have to wait 5 minutes for your eyes to adjust

If you don't see those blotches, your eyes suck, didn't let them adjust enough to the dark, or you just wasted your luck on a nice phone rather than a lottery ticket!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] werked:
I dont want to see them if I do this my ocd will b In overdrive....
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] NA 521":
How do you know that the blotches you see after this test are not just a camera flaw? Did you send the picture you took on the sg3 to another phone and view it again? If the bloches are there, its a camera flaw. If not, its a screen flaw.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nohcho:
Everysingle amoled screen that I have owned had purple tint. It is more or less common on samoled. Especially noticeable when the brightness turned to low.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] PMad:
Because, i used pinch and zoom while the picture was open and pretty much saw nothing happen on the screen. I could tell from some slight changes in some lighter spots, but the blotches did not move. You can do the same.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] NA 521":
Ah, that will work, too! Thanks!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] gaveup:
I'm confused, who would want to go through all that garbage just to maybe see something that will not effect a single persons viewing experience on the phone?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] PMad:
It's not much to go through. Your taking a picture of pure darkness and viewing it up close in that same darkness. It's super quick and simple. And some people, like myself.. we just want to know!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] patmacca:
Well I've just organised a return for my blue s3 as it runs v hot. My partner has the white version and hers runs cool (yes doing the same tasks). I've taken the back cover off both and noted a marked difference in temperature (between our phones) particularly towards the bottom of the phone. My phone also gives off a strange smell when under load.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] patmacca:
I will say it gets hottest when running data traffic. Others have reported that it may be when it's searching for 3g, either way I'm not impressed so it's going back :thumbdown:
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] r3a1ist:
I got one small botch with thin linear ink coming from it. I take that as good.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Yunosuke:
Hey guys,

My replacement unit arrived and I'm happy to report that the screen is perfect!!

It probably has ink blotches but I don't really care about that problem... At least it doesn't have the blue/pink tint that I had with my 1st one. I've simply returned my poor 1st unit for full refund. The AT&T store lady also confirmed the issue. She hadn't seen S3 before so she was like "OMG!!! Why are you returning this phone! this is the phone that I want!". It seems they are getting stock on 28th.

If you have screen problems like me, just bring it in and get it replaced.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] DaJackel:
Hi,

need help with my unlocked NEO (not NEO V) with the Testpoint-Method

I currently have installed 4.1.B.0.431 (Kernel 2.6.32.9-perf) and don't know the next steps. I want to install

ROM:

JJHybrid_ROM_3.1_Stable_CompleteAOSP_NEO.zip

Kernel

suave-kernel-v5-exp-neo.img

but I dont find a solution to root my phone and install CWM. Or is this the wrong way?

I've now read so many different instructions that I am very confused and not know what are the next steps.

suave kernel have cwm included.For root,flash via cwm Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1678690 First flash the kernel,because you need cwm for flashing Superuser.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] DaJackel:
Ahh, CWM is included.

Okay, then I think the next steps are:

- Start Neo in Fastmode (right butten pressed than poweron, the LED should light blue)

- rename suave-kernel-v5-exp-neo.img to boot.img

- Open Commandline on PC and run "fastmode boot boot.img"

- reboot phone to CWM and install Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip from SDCard

- reboot phone check root

- reboot phone to CWM, wipe and install JJHybrid_ROM_3.1_Stable_CompleteAOSP_NEO.zip

- reboot and all done.

Is this right? Or can I install the Kernel with fastmode and then reboot to CWM to install directly the new ROM without Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] georgeiulian89:
First flash the rom,then flash Superuser.Btw,i'm not using command prompts,i'm using flashtool,it's much easy to work with,and don't neet to rename the kernel.You can get it from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1351317
