This is a review of ZeroLemon Note 4 tempered glass screen protector. http://zerolemon.com/product/zerole...-protector-for-samsung-galaxy-note-4-full-hd/

To be honest, I wasn't planning to create a separate review thread for this tempered glass protector after I confirmed that it has "halo" effect along the edges where it didn't stick to the screen of Note 4. As most of you already aware, Note 4 screen is slightly curved toward the edges and as a result a thicker screen protector, such as tempered glass, will not be able to flex and stick to that part of the screen. As a matter of fact, even some of the film screen protectors have problem with that, and I see some manufacturers pre-cutting them to cover only the display portion of the screen. Hopefully a robust solution will be available soon, but what do we do in a meantime?

I thought I will wait and see until a week after getting my Note 4 I discovered a small hairline scratch on a screen of my brand spanking new phone with Gorilla 3 glass. That quickly changed my mind and I figured to apply Zerolemon tempered glass protector while I'm waiting for a better solution. I didn't buy it and received it as a review sample in exchange for my honest opinion about it. But for $8.99 I think it worth every penny even as a temporary solution. Here is why.

Beside the low price, this is actually high quality tempered glass protector offering a typical 9H hardness rating, rounded edges, high glass clarity like original display, the same touch screen sensitivity for both finger touch and s-pen touch, and oleophobic coating to minimize fingerprints (which actually works quite well). And even so it has the same feeling like an original display glass, it feels less slippery when sliding your finger. The only problem, it doesn't stick to the edges and you can see this so called "halo" effect which is visible only with a black background. I demonstrated in my pictures below how it looks in both cases.

Also, I had no problem using it with my UAG Maverick case where the top of the glass protector doesn't even touch the bumper of the case, and the bottom of the glass protector goes underneath of it. I'm typically very anal about screen protector installation and will not allow a single speck of dust, so halo effect is not acceptable by my standards. But to be honest I had this screen protector since yesterday and totally forgot about those edges while enjoying a bit more of carefree tossing of my phone in the pocket.

Oh, and forgot to mention the most important part - installation took literally less than a minute. I used included alcohol wipe to clean the screen. Then, removed a protective film from a "sticky" part of the glass and laid it down pushing air bubbles out with my thumb after application. Of course, make sure you are working in dust-free area and have you hands washed with soap before starting. Though no specific instruction was included with this protector, if you don't have previous experience, just look up videos on YT.

Here are the pictures.

I have the UAG MAVERICK also and mine went under the case on the top and bottom left corners. I guess it's the way you align it. Either way it's a nice piece of glass but the huge halo and going under the case on the corners I did not like. So I took it off and put the xtreme Spartan on. Smaller than the LG but less halo and doesn't go under case. So I am keeping that one on until something better comes along.

[General Accessories] k.babymamma:
Here is the pic I took of mine right after I installed it today. I am, like you, happy with the protector otherwise. The halo is ginormous, even by my standards (I'm not extremely picky) and I was worried maybe my screen curve was more than everybody elses'. But, seeing your, I guess not. The help around the home button, for me, is particularly disconcerting. Anyhow, I'm using it despite the ugly halo, until we can get some curved glass. I do like the fact that it covers almost the whole screen. It's smooth and high quality.
[General Accessories] borijess:
That's allot of halo

Sent from the TermiNOTEr 4! ;)
[General Accessories] k.babymamma:
I know,right? Lol I can get it to go out with my finger depresssing, but it comes right back when I lift up my finger. It's even all the way around so maybe my screen is extra curvy?
[General Accessories] Mumraa:
Wow massive halo my spigen has none think I'll stick to the plastic :(
[General Accessories] Sokudoningyou:
Holy cow. Mine is nowhere near that size; even vectron has a slightly larger halo than mine. I'm guessing I really just managed to hit the sweet spot, because my halo is pretty thin, and frankly, since my Verus has a lip, I'm not too worried. It is, after all, really just security for if it somehow lands face first, and the edges aren't important if that happens.

I still can't believe they haven't figured out how to deal with the curve, though. If our screen is glass and curved, why can't they manufacture a tempered glass piece that has a slight curve as well? Seems ridiculous to me.

Now, if I can just find a dock that will allow a Verus case....

EDIT: Try putting something very heavy on the front of your phone overnight to see if that might finally make it adhere, for those who have this problem? I know I tried that with my old Note 2, when I accidentally bent a corner up (and yes, apparently it is possible to do so), and so I set a thick glass skull on the corner overnight. It helped quite a bit, actually. It didn't completely go flat, but it definitely lessened the problem.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StoneComputers:
I got this from a customer he bought a new phone and told me if i could fix this then i could keep it... Decided to start here... Everything seems to be pointing to a bad update... Tried to do self recovery but i feel it needs to be totaly reflashed... I had anothet note 3 and switched the bords to make sure that it wasnt an anntenna problem or anything else besides the motherbord or software... Is there a way to fully flash this again? Like the basband and Android? I know u all flash ROMs but id like to get stock working first... Tried Kies but wont reflash it... Maybe a way to get it into emergency recovery mode so it will reflash it?

I havent done any flashing since my SII i know Odin was relivent, where would i get 100 stock verizon 4.2? And its like the old ways right?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StoneComputers:
I figured out how to reflash it.. But im leaving it's off just in case someone else came across the same problem it's almost like there's no SIM card inserted even if you pull the SIM card out sometimes it does sometimes it does it never shows the network and it never shows a signal strength over .99 also its not showing IMEI number was just super weird, it keeps pointing to bad software... If reflashing it dont fiz it ill post some screenshots...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjewell:
My first note 3 killed 3 sim cards before verizon finally replaced the phone under warranty. The phone may still be under manufactures warranty if the phone is under 1 year old. I cant wait for my upgrade so i can get a non samsung device. I love the size and most of the hardware but first and foremost it is supposed to work as a phone which is does not. Plus bloatwiz is a freaking joke even in rooted custom form.

I just got my hands on a HTC-Athena from a friend. It has no branding on it so I think its a prototype. It doesnt seem to be crashing or anything so I'm going to use it as my primary device. I will miss you all at the Universal thread...Thanks for all your help!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] salmon:
Before you go... perhaps you could tell us why you think you will like the Athena more than the Universal?

I've looked at the specs of the Athena and whilst it looks like a nice device i'm not sure it's a Universal killer (especiallly with the AKU3.5/Crossbow Roms now available).

Also, i think i would miss the keyboard much too much...

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts now you can play with both...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] AlanJC:
Possibly because it's faster, has a far nicer screen for browsing, supports HSDPA, tons of storage, better camera, and is based on a much newer version of WM6?

Keyboard is still there for desk use, I don't know what it would be like to use holding it though, but I use my Uni in portrait mode most of the time I am away from a desk anyway, so I thin kI would also prefer the Athena.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] KTamas:
We can fix that easily. I give you my Uni for your Athena :D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] salmon:
Screen is better - really?

Wow, that's saying something as the Universal screen is one of it's best features. Unlike you though, i tend to use the keyboard a lot when i'm out and about...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Cyber-mate:
Uni vs. Athena

Com'n guys! You dont even know how much it weighs! Well it's okay with the loads of features, but com'n would that go for a nickle?

Uni has proven to be among the best for those who know its value ;)

Not to mention the size and attached keyboard. I guess you're gonna go around with the detachable keyboard and when needed, pull it from under your jacket, huh?

I guess it is not the time yet, just wait and hold your horses...

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rookiegenius:
Hey guys, So I notice my Note 4 receives email/ hangout/ google voice message quite slow. Compared to my laptop, the email, hangouts + google voice text always come about 15s - 1 min later. They're not instant like on the laptop unless the email/ text happen to arrive right when google starts the sync. Note that I use the gmail app so they are push. Quite disappointed since this was the issue on my S3 two years ago, too. I thought phone has improved these push service.

Also on the other note, the problem is not my network connection since I used to use the iphone 6 plus and its push text/ email is instant, even faster than my laptop. (I used the same gmail, hangouts apps on iOS)

Is there any way to improve this? THanks!

There are two methods to disable Google camera shutter sound, if you are stock nonrooted device you have to mute it manually by lower down the ringtone volume which means it's temporary, or if you have rooted device than using root Explorer or es file manager you can disable camera_click.ogg (rename it) which is buried in the following path: system/media/audio/ui this work permanent, if you want re-enable it just reassign the old file name....

Hi try to set my lock screen with fingerprint sensor but I realized that does not work. Currently I have the stock rom. I come to try a custom rom, the stock rom back to my surprise it does not work the fingerprint detector. before installing a custom rom my fingerprint sensor to work properly if I have no idea what happens.

sorry for my language
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uniquebarbee:
I had this on my Tab S I used odin to flash Stock firmware and everything was fine once again. You can use lock screen finger scanner you just need to get back to stock first then set your fingerprints then you can flash whatever custom rom u'd like
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CapitanFantasma:
I try, but gives the same result

lower the stock rom sammobil and did not work, but I realized that is not the same as it originally had in the sammobil comes the whatsapp application to my note being that originally came from the factory without whatsapp. I need to find the firmware but can not find

already tried, does not work I need the stock ROM that comes by default in my note 4 looks different does not come installed WhatsApp like this coming down from sammobil. I doubt find the rom that originally came perhaps with the default ROM that came my only solution is to work my fingerprint detector :(
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdiaz33685:
look at your firmware that is installed, goto settings, about device... baseband version..

then download that firmware... forget about whatsapp, my phone doesn't have it installed, but it is in the firmware, and it doesn't install it..

wipe the phone in recovery, and reboot into downloader mode, and odin flash your firmware, if that doesn't work, ur phone is effed up... have to return it, happened to me, this is my 2nd, I have not rooted this one yet, until I have answers regarding this...

I will be rooting soon, a lot of people have no issues, don't know why... we need more answers, I hear that you should delete the stored fingerprints that are saved, the odin your firmware, it works for some, not for others...

please pm me with your results.

dude I feel you, sucks, I know, that is how I felt when it got messed up, that is why I am waiting, mine got messed up on the 3rd... and tried fixing it for 2 more days, I returned it after 5 days... they gave me another one... lucky me I have insurance on my phone.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CapitanFantasma:
you think it is hardware problem or software? perhaps in a future update solution exist? or there will be more to do.

thanks anyway for your help
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdiaz33685:
I think it got messed up, don't know how, but this has happened to a lot of people, because of flashing roms, might be something that is hidden in a secured area, and getting damaged somewhere,

when it happened to me, I was on the 1st firmware, then I did everything I could, then I updated the firmware to the new one, and that did not fix it either...

I think it messed up... I don't think it be fixed unless Samsung does something to it... I have been reading all the note 4 threads before I root this 2nd phone, Verizon, sprint, tmobile, and att threads to see what is going on...
