[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Pyr0x64:
well my Just like glass protector arrived today and i'm slightly dissapointed...

I haven't fitted it yet and I'm not sure I'm going to...

When I took it out of the packet there were some small particles of black dirt stuck under the edge of the protector.

I managed to get these out with a small piece of tape, but my biggest gripe is that when overlaying it on my phone, the protector does not quite/barely covers the whole width of the viewable screen area.

It is just slightly too narrow, if i put it up against one side of the viewable area, there is a gap on the other side :(

If I centre it over the home button the gap is about 1/2 mm on both left and right sides

The image you display on your site gives the impression the screen protector will fit to the edges and will surround the speaker grill etc.

Unfortunately the only other camera I have access to here is an old crappy 5mp cam which is not good enough to see the gap due to the reflections in the plastic (and the rubbish, grainy pictures the camera takes, lol).

Other screen protectors I have for this phone are approx 2mm wider than the JLG, including the @FoliX one on the phone at the moment.

[edit] Also... is there any chance of using smaller packaging? such a big box for such a small item is increasing the cost of postage.

I was charged $11.50 but the actual postage cost on the package is $5.34

[edit2]

Although I cannot take pictures of it applied, when test fitting it with the backing attached there are gaps around the sides just like the photos in this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34333978&postcount=678

If you would like me to remove the backing from the protector and place it on the phone to attempt pictures I can do, but I will not remove my current protector for this.

The JLG protectors need to be cut wider than the viewable area of the screen, if for no other reason than to allow for some tolerance when fitting.

Hey all.

I wanted to let everyone know what I have been using,

It fits with a little lip left over, but it feels great and is hardly noticeable, Ive been using it for about 2 weeks now and it is holding up like its worth $20....if you haven't clicked the link yet....its only 4 bucks.....extremely worth it

Not trying to be lazy... Ive looked through this thread and a few others.

Are there any screen protectors that go to the edge of the phone front? I am not the kind of person that would normally use a case, but i do like a screen protector. I dont want one that doesnt completely cover the screen.

Any brand suggestions?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
You don't want to go to the edge on a curved screen.

Also if you go to the edge frequently some cases will rub it so it comes off.

---------- Post added at 03:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:19 PM ----------

I assume it came with a black cloth - it's possible that's where the black came from.

Edge to edge protectors on curved glass don't work - they would peel. Also most customers want a little bit around the edge so the cases don't push the screen protector off.

As far as the image we do the best we can.

Please have a look at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=34375097#post34375097

It's entirely about our protectors.

You don't need to send a picture - everyone knows what they look like.

Our protectors are also wet apply which is a big difference and feel like glass as compared to whatever you have on.

There will be 5 or 6 PC's - those are the ones above.

Then there will be about the same number of TPU.

It's harder to pick the PC colors than the TPU colors. TPU basically you get White, Black, Red, Blue, Green, etc.

The PC colors as you can see are what we make them - it took a tremendous effort to get those come out that way.

The PC we use is a much higher quality than you normally find in cases - it flexes.

Not to happy with the jlg sp. It is the 4th sp I have tried . I believe that there is something wrong with the manufacturing process , because after reading loads of post about dust , I was very careful not to get any on the phone. But after 18 hours I see dust spots everywhere. Also one of the edges picked black fibers off of the "lint" free cloth. This is the only sp I had to have dust on it. I guess naked will be the way to go.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Zacedward:
I never got dust on my jlg I used my own lint free cloth. I agree with you on the cloth when I first tried to clean my screen it left little black fibers on screen that's why I used my own but I am loving the screen protector so far this is the best one I have owned
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] nuclearrage:
I saw the same thing , that is why I used my own cloths to clean the phone . the only time I used the black cloth was after the sp was installed to protect the sp from "micro scratches" like the directions said to. I was very careful about dust , but I personally think that the dust was already on the sp when it arrived. I remeber seeing little bubbles in the sp (like very small air bubbles) before I even peeled of the protective cover, however I thought that they wouldn't be a problem at the time. Now I am thinking otherwise.

Other than the dust issues , I really do like the sp , it is as smooth as glass and the parts that don't have dust , look really goods. However I have counted 27 very obvious dust spots that are a game changer. I will give it a few days , but if spots are there , the sp will come off.

ps.. I dont have animals , I live in a very new apartment and use filterete 3m airfilters and vacuum with a hepa vac so I don't have a dust problem in the area of the installation.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
Are you sure the dust spots are not haze?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Zabii:
Ok, I am getting a Note 2 next month, and likely one of the Just Like Glass screen protectors. What is a good case that isn't too thick, that will be alright with this protector? I don't want to crack the protector, as I have heard will happen. Do the flip covers work well with glass protectors, or will I need to get an Otterbox?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
You can't crack the protector but it can be pulled up if the case is over it.

We design them so they are away from the edges so it's probably ok.

We will have our Ultra Case available in about 2 weeks for the Note II. Thin and very protective. Tons of colors.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] nuclearrage:
yes , i am sure , the haze has slowly gone away , yet the dustspots are getting worse , with clean dry hands you can feel where the dust is , and the larger ones are visible with the screen on or off.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Zabii:
If I were to go with a flip case (not sure, I want something a little more protective but the Samsung Cover is just so sexy, I am liable to drop this phone though), will that interfere with the protector? I assume you are the company that makes them?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
I have never heard of any case interfering with our protector.

We allow enough room for just about everything.

hmm. i have been using the jlg for while and i have been contemplation whether to change back to my previous screen protector. it's also one of those shock absorbing screen protectors. and wow, i'm amazed that my old screen protector is clear than the JLG one. maybe scott you might wanna take a look at this. dry applicating screen protector by tank protection

edit: one thing to note though is that using the spen on it straight after application, would be like rubbing two pieces of rubber together or sandpaper, however after using it for a day that usually goes away according to my past experience.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] craiigman:
So, which one should I go for? I read through the first 4-5 pages just seemed like people saying "wait for this one". But now the phone has been out for a while and mine is on order. Which one should I get?

I have the glass.t one on my Note 1, it's was great, but was a bit pointless as it's the only phone I really used a screen protector on and I've never cracked a screen. Just looking for one that avoids scratches. Also someone said that cause it's LCD a screen protector won't do anything, is that correct?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
If you have a Note the JLG cant be beat for s-pen sensitivity and feeling like glass. However I'll leave others to give you an opinion on the rest since I sell them :laugh:

---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

Sounds like you're selling it with that link you provided.

JLG is 99% clear and your listing says yours is 92%.

It also shows 5 layers of protection meaning it's going to feel like rubber.

I have the screen protectors from tmobile and I think those were the best . I had the spigen but it was a dust and lint muncher. Just putting it out there
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] craiigman:
UK link anywhere?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ElAguila:
This screen as far as I know is AMOLED not LCD. If you want something that quick with no liquid then go with Boxwave or SGP. I have used both and to me they perform about the same. If you want better protection with smoothness then JLG is great.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] craiigman:
I have ordered the SGP Oleophobic, it's not to expensive and has 2 with it so if I mess up I have another go. SGP have done me good in the past so will try it out. That JLG one looked great, but could only find on that DBA Cases and since I'm UK and already made another order just an hour ago, I didn't fancy either cancelling my first order or paying for that delivery again.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Haydenpup:
I wouldn't get the MobC Oleophobic again. Using the S-pen leaves temporary marks that eventually relax back to normal. Next time I'd rather get a protector that doesn't have those marks, even if they're temporary.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] craiigman:
SGP website says their Oleophobic is best for s-pen. Have you tried that out?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jsminnis:
I have the tech HD protector off of amazon, and I must say that I really like it. I used the scotch tape method to put it on and it went on perfect. Plus you can't beat three protectors for 7 bucks. I haven't used much pen a lot, but it hasn't left any marks in the past week.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] padlad:
How much was shipping to the UK?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bond32:
Got the Tech Armor HD in. Pretty good feeling protection. For the price its good however I have a big complaint. They are not case friendly at all. The cut is really close, it goes around the home button and it fits to the edge of the phone very close. For this reason as soon as I put on my diztronic TPU it peeled up the screen protector.

They are just ok. The price is good, pack of 3 on Amazon was $6.95 with prime shipping. They are highly rated on Amazon and tech Armor has a good reputation. I suppose these would be great for those of you who don't use a case.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
Those are not Samsung protectors they are "Nillkin matte anti-fingerprint Screen Protector for Samsung Galaxy Note 2"

Nillkin doesn't make screen protectors - they buy them from a cheap producer. Also they are matte which means it ruins the look of the display.

Honestly I completely believe in our protectors. When it comes to smoothness and feeling like glass there isn't better. I'm not saying they are for everyone - we have a rainbow effect when it's off - we can't go close to the edges, etc...

Since it's completely non porous and a hard protector there cannot be a better protector for the SPEN. Many have said it actually improves using it.

The SGP, ZAGG, etc.. brands that have multiple layers of soft protection feel like plastic and using the SPEN may work but it won't be the best.

Anyone who has a JLG will tell you once it's on it feels as hard as the glass.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jhobert:
Is it a dry apply? And how's the s pen reacts on the screen with this protector?

I love how the protector goes all the way to the edges since im using my phone naked.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bond32:
Dry application. I don't use it much but seemed fine. Not sure if it would scratch over time.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
Some Dry Applies are fine.

I'd beware of the "self healing" ones or the ones that have 4-5 layers of protection.

Those are most likely to have an issue.

I'm looking to carry a new line of Dry Apply as soon as I find something good enough.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] jhobert:
Id really love to try your JLG protector but I'm afraid I will just mess up on the application of the protector. Ive tried those wet apply with my htc sensation and all of them ended up on the trash lol. I wish there's a place where I can get ur screen protector and have them install it for me.

I thought I would try out the iSmooth protector, since it was dirt cheap. I've never used a PET material protector before and bought it just to see what the material was like. I had a cheaper ZAGG-material protector on (Xtremeguardz I beleive) that I threw on to help keep my screen together after a small 18" drop sent a nice crack up the face. First thing I noticed was how much clearer the PET material is compared to the rubbery Zagg-like stuff. The cut on the ismooth is great and lines up very nice. Install was very easy (my first dry protector I have always used wet in the past). No air bubbles, and the one I did have pushed out really easily. I was suprised how little adhesion this protector has compared to the wet installs I normally use. That's a problem towards the bottom of the protector where the surface starts to curve, there isn't enough grip to keep the bottom down. Because of that I can't recommend the product. With a hair more adhesive I would highly recommend it. I'm guessing the more expensive PET protectors like the SGP will have same/similar material properties but with a hair more adhesive so it sits down towards the bottom?

FYI the crack was from an 18" drop face down onto concrete with a nice thick cruzerlite TPU case on it, nothing touched the screen, the Note II just doesn't like face down drops no matter how benign. That's way I changed to the folio case to add some more protection.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Evermind10:
oh no, i'm not selling it. i'm just sharing my experience with JLG creen protector which i bought before JLG. nope, today is the second day of application and there is no rubber feeling as to what you said. smooth with the spen too.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] DataWave47:
To be honest I have no idea. I have come across that one several posts and within their customer reviews. My only explanation would be that they probably installed it on the wrong side. Most of the comments I read stating that their spen wasnt working correctly were followed by it makes a noise when u use it. That's really the only thing I can think of to justify it. I watched a video on youtube to make sure I installed it correctly and I have zero problems.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] nuclearrage:
email with pics sent . som eof the smaller dust spots have shrunken down in size , and are hard to see . There are now about 12 large spots still left , and are visible off or on. I read news thru the pulse app which uses a white background , and it really makes the spots stand out not only is a little dust spec visible , there is a slight "rainbow" effect around said spots. I installed on Wednesday and it Saturday now , so about 80 hours after the install.

Instead of writing it off, email iSmooth. I had the exact same problem -- exact same lifting at the exact same areas. Paul from iSmooth told me they made new protectors with stronger edge adhesion at those problem areas that won't have this issue. They sent me the new ones FOC.

I have to say iSmooth has some very good customer service. Didn't get asked to send the old one back or to pay a dime. The review promo is also pretty nice (essentially you get 6 protectors for just $10) but pretty superfluous if you get a perfect install.

Just received my JLG (via Amazon, so shipped in soft packaging), and sad to say it seems I've received one with an indentation right in the middle of the sp. It doesn't appear that the packaging was damaged, but since the sp isn't shipped with any kind of solid cardboard or similar material to keep it flat I can't tell if it's because of the soft packaging or something that happened out of manufacturing. Either way, I would say it's definitely a hazard to purchase this particular sp through Amazon.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] WrlsFanatic:
My wife just got a Note II. I was hoping I could get one of the curved, full screen protectors, but Spigen doesn't even have the SGS3 curved screen protector yet. I see that Scout stands behind his products, so I gave them a shot. We'll see how it goes.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Evermind10:
if i'm not wrong, the rainbow effect in those spots will go away with time. proven in my use with JLG. however, the dust in those spots will remain. you'll probably have tiny bubbles because of those dust. good decision on emailing scott.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] DataWave47:
There are two covers that you have to pull off and they are labelled front and back. The back gets applied to the screen. You then work out all the bubbles and then pull off the cover labelled front.

Here is the video I followed. It's obviously for a different phone but the concept is exactly the same.

Finished installing my JLG last week and it was an easy experience. Other than a weird mis-glue on a small part of the edge, the rest is perfect. I've applied a few wet SP before, so this was no different. Unfortunately, my house is a bit dusty at the moment, but luckily there's no dust under the SP. There is a vertical rainbowing effect when the screen is off, but none when it's on. Touch wise, the JGL is excellent, if it weren't for the edges I probably couldn't tell there was something covering the screen.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Zacedward:
yes that's what he said
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] SSHGuru:
They do come with a thin piece of cardboard to make sure it keeps straight.

When you have a squirt bottle that can roll around the last thing you want is to have it shipped soft packaging. We ship ours in boxes and have none of those issues.

Regardless we'll be putting them in professional packaging within the next few weeks.

As far as Amazon - I sell quite a few and don't even believe more than 5% have the issue with the protector getting damaged.

All anyone has to do is send me a picture and I replace them free of charge.

Looks like a nice dry apply. There is no way to stick the wrong side on - only one side is sticky.

Probably better than ZAGG.
