I hate screen protectors and the extra thickness and weight added by a standard case.

That is why I got the Samsung Flip Cover case. While I am not a "phone dropper", I am a "screen scratcher". So getting a case that protected the screen was more important to me than one that protected from drops. Also, it just looks super slick. Got titanium to go on my white phone. Now I look even more like James Bond than before, lol. :cyclops:

Has anyone seen a screen protector that offers privacy too?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mitchellvii:
These are nice but they are THICK and make your screen MUCH darker. Not too bad if you have the brightness maxxed indoors.

I've tried screen protectors in the past but it's my experiencethey make the sscreen less responsive. I've been lucky so far with my last few devices avoiding scratches. I'm extremely careful with them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kronium:
A few small scratches here too. Never had a problem on the Evo,3D, or the S2. Must be the coating, not the glass. I hear some guys having luck with car polish.

TechArmor seems to have good reviews and doesn't seem to affect viewing straight on. Unfortunately, they only have it for the iPhone. Maybe you can send an E-Mail to them and ask about our beloved device.

screen protector on mine since day one.. no scratches :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MiguelHogue:
I use a screen protector.. I found out the hard way with my old s2 that had gorilla glass.. I was careful as heck but had annoying scratches.. A lot fail to realize all it takes is a soft material to scratch the screen.. Not necessarily keys or a knife, or whatever other hard things

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] chazglenn3:
This. I am convinced the oleophobic coating on the glass is what scratches...not the glass. It is pure science that it takes something harder than glass to scratch glass. I scratched my OG EVO by mistake with my tungsten wedding ring.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ac16313:
Which would mean a liquid could get into the space between the coating where it was scratched away and should "remove" the scratches. Oh how I wish they made something like that.

The Samsung Flip case is no protection - i have one and it didnt stop my Note 2 from smashing its screen from a 2 ft drop from my pocket to the road - the problem with these ones are they tend to fall/flip open when you drop them - just sayin..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] yeatsie:
Update: OK, I just did a successful screen-glass replace operation on my Note 2 - super happy with the result! - to be honest, i wasnt expecting it to succeed, but i was pleasantly suprised ;)

Needed replacement glass ($30 from Hong Kong) hair dryer, safetly knife etc and heaps of patience, thought i might be taking the whole LCD off at one stage, but moving slowly and being careful around the lower buttons area, where constant heat is required to lift the old glass off without taking the ribbon cables with it!

My Note 2 is as good as new now.

Screen protector on. Gel case on. Now i can enjoy the Note 2 again in all its glory! :laugh:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] CorruptionDee:
I've went through issues like this myself quite a few times. First with the Galaxy S2 and then the Galaxy S3. I literally baby my phine carrying a microfiber wherever I go, so you can imagine how upset I was when I observed a few light scratches. With the Note 2 I've learned my lessons, and while I prefer my phones naked and free, I couldn't take another chance. So I went with the iSmooth screen protector from Amazon. It's hands down the best I've ever used. It's as close to a bare naked screen as you can get. From touch to visibility. I've tried all screen protectors, and they always the screen feel less responsive and feel more "tacky" to the touch. I recommend iSmooth to everyone because it's affordable, it works, and comes with 3 protectors and very clear application instructions.

I just noticed light scratches on my phone and if, indeed, it is the coating that's becoming marked would this work?

Note 2 is not equipped with Gorilla Glass 2!!

Sorry to break the news but there is definitely no Gorilla Glass 2 on Galaxy Note 2 N7100.

No need to much explanation, just check the gorilla glass company's website. It shows all the list of smart phones, pads and phablets that use their product. I cannot post a link due to the limitations because its my first post ever but the website name is www corninggorillaglass com Take it easy guys :):good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Not all devices are listed on Cornings website, FYI. They don't always update the page and quite commonly overlook models that are sequels to previous devices. Gorilla glass isn't all that special anyways its just low iron tempered glass with an oleophobic coating. It will still scratch if it gets sand, silica or other hard minerals on it. It will shatter when hit on the edge, it will practically explode if it's struck with tungsten or porcelain. Gorilla glass I used because its druable to a front on impact and is more scratch resistant than normal glass, ie. your keys and change in your purse/pocket won't destroy it the first time you put you phone in with them. For clarification read the underlined section.

Switched to note 2 after using iphones for 4 years.

Note 2 screen sucks!

I also have deep scratches that pop up here and there.

Never had this issue with iPhone.

Just because of their poor quality glass I don't think I'll use Samsung phones again

And I refuse to put any protective solutions on my phones.

So pls can any one tell me what to do?

Sdk manager should work on Windows 8. Using it on mine. Maybe reinstalling the whole thing?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elia222:

However I still can't figure out why I can't find any package with the sdk manager :confused:
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimusodd:
You are most welcome.

Uhmm,are connected to the internet ?

Also make sure that your firewall,antivirus or anyother security software is not interfering/conflicting.Disable them before running the installer.

Run SDK Manager as an Administrator(Right Click on SDK Manager>select run as an Administrator).

Hope this helps.Good luck.:)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elia222:

I will try again this evening, at least now I can use adb :laugh:
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidcmc:
Got this same problem here.

I'm using Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2013.

To be able to install plataform-tools from SDK Manager, disable your anti-virus (in my case: Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2013) and run SDK Manager (no need to run in Administrator mode). Every package will show properly on your screen and you'll be able to install them.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimusodd:
That's platform tools folder.Do you have platform-tools folder inside android-sdk folder ?(C:\Android\android-sdk)

You said you were having problems accessing fastboot in Windows 8.In case of elia222,he was unable to download the platform-tools.Are you facing the same problem ?

No, I'm able to access and download platform-tools, however unable to connect to the device. Both my One S, my brother's Sensation and my Wildfire won't connect.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimusodd:
Disable your firewall,antivirus or anyother security software before running the installer.

Also,run SDK Manager as an Administrator(Right Click on SDK Manager>select run as an Administrator).
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elia222:
Have you installed the android-usb drivers? You need to disable the signature verification to install them on windows 8.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usaff22:
I've installed them, but haven't disabled sig verification. Is it a necessity to install the drivers?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elia222:
Yes, you shouldn't be able to install the adb drivers on windows 8 without having disabled it.

It should give you an error.

I've been addicted to Google for a couple Of years now. but I seem to be more and more obsessed With anything related to Google and specifically anything to do With Android.

what I've noticed about My addiction:

-constant checking Of apps in the play store. countless times per day

-constant checking if there are upgrades to My existing apps. countless times per day.

-countless playing With My android phone. scrolling through the home screens, launching YouTube, etc...

-continuely looking for videos related to Google products (fiber, Google now, nexus, etc...)

- continuely looking for videos related to ANDROID phones (note 2, galaxy s3, LG optimus g, etc..)

-searching for Google tv stuff
