Gorilla glass SUCKS... my screen is scratched!!! - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

I didnt buy a screen shield because i was told the droid/milestone use gorilla glass which makes it almost impossible to scratch the screen , boy i was WRONG, my milestone has like 4 scratches, two are just visible when the screen is off so its ok , but the other two are VERY VISIBLE, they're almost staring me , when i use apps with white backgrounds such as the messaging app and the browser the scratches "leak light" , i've become obsessed
Theres nothing i can do know but to advise all of you to buy a screen protector

Yes, and I can recommend the screen protectors from Martin Fields The price is average, but it's like that thing is invisible...no touch screen sensibility problems, scratch resistant and light absorbing...

The only phone I'm having which is scratch proof is the Nokia 8600 Luna. I've never saw another phone without scratches...

you sure about that?im really concerced about screen sensibilty

well, I don't want to sound like a sales representative, but I really have to admit that I didn't notice any change in touch sensibility (at least I didn't notice it)...I had a HTC Tattoo before and bought the screen protector from Martin Fields also for that one and there also was no change in sensibility...
it's only 0,2 mm thick by the way

Why, that's no thicker than a condom.

Tested on my Milestone 2

TBH I have a cheap screen protector and never had any touch screen problems on any of the touch screen phones i have had

Gorilla Glass doesn't sucks... The perception that it is un-scratchable sucks.
Unfortunately this thing is poorly market and no one makes any effort to properly tell you that, altough Gorilla Glass is really harder and really much more difficult to scratch, it is easily scratched by diamonds (well, that is life, diamonds are harder than almost anything) and quartz (which is commonly found on dust and sand). Usually scratches come from friction from jewels with the screen or friction of dust/sand in your pockets or something else with the screen. I can tell you that I take care to not store my phone in dusty places or places where jewels are nearby, and never had any scratch on it, it has even fallen once or twice, screen down.
Mutch better than, per say, my old Nokia E51 (which I love BTW), that had scratchs of just taking it off my pocket and putting it on my pocket...

The main selling point of gorilla glass is its strength, it's really hard to break : It is hard to SMASH AND CRACK. the scratch resistant is just a marketing scheme.

I've never used any type of screen protection and not a scratch. It goes in my pockets dropped it a few times all good. A few nicks on the edges but glass is fine. Gorilla Glass rox!

This "Its awesome Gorilla Glass, dude! No Scratches and cracks never ever" is only marketing. There is every time a way to scratch and break this thingy.
THe first thing I am doing after purchasing a Gadget with a screen like Handhelds or Smartphones is to apply a really top quality Screen Protector. I have a screen protector on my Motorola Milestone and I am really glad that Ive done that.
So, don't trust always the adverts.

I use the matte screen protector from hong kong for like 20cent price and it is virtually without any scratches.
Also it is great because it doesn't attract fingerprints and is easier to swipe upon.
Strongly recommended!

Not me. I will never buy a screen protector. All my phones never had one but all of them looks good as new. If you put your phone in your pocket, Never put anything else and it will be fine.

well i use quite cheap screen protector since a few months, before that, nothing happend to my screen either, but i thought it could be good to make sure it stays like that.
c'mon nothing is indestructible.

I used a screen protector religiously on my old Nokia phone, but my Milestone gets beat up every day with no protector and still looks good. At this point, I would consider Gorilla Glass a plus on the spec sheet, but not necessarily a guarantee that the screen is indestructible. Can't hurt, though.

My phone have for some reason only mini scratches, you can only see them with the right light angle, for somehow it cant get big scratches, I tried on a corner ofcourse

Gorilla Glass
I think gorilla glass is a joke. The first day I had my Motorola Photon, I dropped it and the screen broke in a hundred pieces. Had to get a new one and I promised myself I would be careful.. Didn't install a screen saver because I thought the glass would be like a ceramic crystal on a watch. Well, after three scratches on my glass, I decided to put a screen saver on. AS far as I'm concerned gorilla glass only has one good property. That is it's name. For corning to put their name on this product is a joke. Steve

yep, gorilla glass is marketing joke. use matte screen protectors

Clarivue screen protectors are damn good.

Just got one for my Milestone, and must say very impressed with the Clarivue screen protectors.
Not only are they actually made in Japan (I can tell since labels are also in Japanese), they give you two, along with a wet wipe.
Was very easy to apply. The Anti-Glare one I got does reduce clarity significantly but at the same time appears to be completely finger-print proof.
It's on special (at the moment), and got a 10% discount coupon from my first purchase so think I might buy another pack (this time the ultra-clear one)
http://www.clarivue.com/motorola-milestone-screen-protector.html
I have Clarivue screen protector on my Milestone also, and it's perfect. The second one I put perfect, the first one still had some dust beneath. Anyway for the money I prefer Clarivue instead Boxwave.
Do you see any orange peel with the screen saver?
whaaat 11$? no way, just go to ebay and check those sellers from HK - you can get these things pretty cheaply (even ten times cheaper)...
I've got the cheapest antiglare on earth for my milestone as I hate fingerprints and also with the antiglare it seems like it is easier to swipe fingers across the screen as they don't "stick" to the default glossy screen.
However I get pretty weird colors probably because of refraction characteristics of the protector. Even though - pros>cons.
Can you suggest any seller for the HK one? At least you tried them already.

If you keep your phone in a "sleeve" or you don't use the phone in dirty conditions - I would say - it doesn't need a screen protector.
However I use a matte protector for two reasons:
-it feels better, my fingers "sticks" to too shiny surfaces like milestone and with the matte protector I think it feels more smooth to swipe across the screen
-no finger prints!
I totally agree. Mine right now sucks. I'd like to try the matte.

The Milestone has a gorilla glass display thats very hard to scratch! It is harder than most metals and there are videos on youtube of people trying to scratch gorilla glass with keys and pens, but fail to do so... so its kinda pointless adding a protector as it will only detract from the smooth feel of the gorilla glass. It will reduce the sensitivity of the touch screen. It is counter productive!

You can find it on google - its a pretty well known fact - The Droid and the Milestone were amongst the first cell phones to use Gorilla glass on the display - youtube should have a bunch of videos too.
But you should understand - this only makes it very hard to scratch the glass - any material that has a hardness value higher than the gorilla glass can scratch it.
I was using a screen protector for a while but I got fed up with it after a while and took it off. The cover I used diffracted the light from the screen caused a slight rainbow effect and was less sensitive to the touch. One of the reasons I chose the milestone is because of the capacitive touchscreen and the cover made it almost as bad as an old resistive screen!
My screen is still scratch free dispite living in my pocket, although the metal around the screen has a few nicks. Gorilla glass is impressive there are some demos on the net like this one http://vimeo.com/8602963
The rainbow effect was because it was anti-glare. With clear protector you shouldnt get any difractions. Also the clear protectors are thinner so you get better sensitivity.
How are you protecting your screen from looking all smudged? And don't your finger "stick" to the glass without matte protector? Because for me that's even worse than having less sensitivity.
Yes the screen permantly has a bunch of fingerprint marks, although I don't notice them much. This will probably bother me more in summer when there is more sunlight around.
I find my fingers do the opposite of stick, they glide over the glass, with protectors I didn,t like the extra friction.
I appreciate it is down to personal preference.

I'm sorry to say that, but Gorilla Glass has one weak point, dust... Dust and sometimes sand have quartz and quartz still is harder than GG. My Milestone has survived so many falls but once, and just once, it slipped in the floor and one small spec of dust fell of the speaker grill and the screen got a tiny scratch from that single spec of dust.
It is hard to scratch it, but not impossible. Today I use a Invisible Shield and I'm happy with it, no more scratchs.
Here I use the phone only in a Noreve leather case... I dropped it only one time, the cover was open and the Stone felt with the screen on the floor and I got 2 tiny scratches on the amazing GG 8-|... I'm using a cheap screen protective film now ^^.

[Q] Do i really need a screen protector?

Im super, super careful with my phones and i did carry my Nexus One with case but without a screen protector.
why? because i knew that accidents happen and a good looking case will help in case i drop my phone.
now, talking about screen protectors, i really dont like them.
takes away the beauty of the screen specially S screen.
i never got a scratch on my nexus one, carry the phone is my pocket by itself or on my bag when going to work.
can u guys tell me if im safe not using a screen protector.
This is not the nexus one, there our people that got their phone's screen scratch by staring at it.
get a screen protector - clarivue is what im using, no orange peel nor touch issues. Screen looks great! couldn't notice a difference with the naked glass.
(Had also the cheap ones from ebay - yaak!)
I don't think anyone has reported that they scratch their screen YET. The battery cover is a different story tho....
IMO, I would not want to use screen protector. I have used my Hero for over a year without screen protector. Due to it's chin, it never touch the surface. The screen is coated to reduce finger prints (though it does not eliminate finger prints totally it is still pretty good compare to my friends' i phones with screen protector) and since it is curve screen it should not touch the surface when you drag on the table, face down just like my current hero. My nexus S will be arriving in a few days and I don't inted to get one.
+1 for clarivue, you forget it's on your phone after a while.
The Nexus S screen scratches as easily as any other screen, Gorilla Glass or not. If you thought you were safe with the Nexus One, don't buy one for the Nexus S.
It is not the screen that scratches while you look at it, it is the battery cover. So I would recommend a case, but you were already going to buy one I see.
If you really want a screen protector, go with a super clear one like Clarivue or Seidio. But I won't buy one. It is glass after all, and the anti-smudge layer won't work when you have a screen protector, of course.

Quoted for truth.
Recommend you guys read about the oleophobic coating... I'm sure the glass is quite scratch resistant but the coating seems to be easily worn off:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902132
Pics on page 2 and 3. I've seen this first hand with my first Nexus S. I've since exchanged and my new one hasn't shown this problem so it might have been a defect from the factory since I don't actually know if mine wore off while I had it or if it was like that the whole time and I just noticed it later.

Well the guy who started the topic and exchange his Nexus S three times
was using rubbing alcohol to clean the screen.
i dont know what other chemical he used.

Lol, why would you clean your phone with alcohol or any other chemical, when there is an oleophobic coating on the display? I mean, that's the purpose of the oleophobic coating, right? It is there so you don't need to use chemicals to clean your display...
I don't like to use any case for my phone. I have not been using any case for 3-4 previous phones. Normally the back of the screen start to scarch due to vibration. I never put my phone into vibration when I place it on hard surface. I never put my phone together with other object such as key or coins in same pocket. The only time I use vibration when the phone is in pocket.
Some time I even joke to my friends that hero does not need screen protector because it has built in screen protection (chin that make screen never touch the surface) and even drag it on the table. My NS is arriving in a few days time. I don't think I'll be using any screen protector.
When I bought my Epic 4G a few months ago, I got talked into getting one of the screen protectors they sell at the Sprint Store. I hated it. It made the screen look dull and made it feel not right to touch. I took it off and decided never to buy another screen protector.
Then, I got my SNS and I got a case for it but I was amazed how quickly the screen accumulated fingerprints. I broke down and got Ghost Armor and now, I don't even use the case I bought for it. I love it. The phone feels so great naked and I love it.
The case with the coating coming off isn't necessarily due to using chemicals. If that were the case, the whole screen would've been affected, not just those few spots that were pictured.
My first NS had similar spots being affected and I never used anything on the screen other than a microfiber cloth.

Do you use a screen protector?

I've been wondering about this for a little while - is there a point in having my screen protector on since the XT720 has Gorilla glass? The SGP case I bought came with a screen protector so I just put it on. Is there actually any benefit considering Gorilla glass is unscratchable/ virtually indestructible? The screen protector doesn't really annoy me or anything, I'm just curious if the screen is a little brighter/better without it on and if there's actually any point at all for me to have it on or I should just take the screen protector off.
Also, the case came with a little screen cover for the camera shutter, this one I've thought is probably more useful since the camera doesn't have gorilla glass. Or does it and this screen cover is also pointless?
I do use one and I don't think it does any harm. I guess it would depend on whether you think the device warranty covers scratches to the screen (which I haven't looked into but I highly doubt).
A long time ago when I upgraded from a Palm Pilot to a Palm III, I went through a similar doubting phase about screen protectors since the III was advertised to be the latest and greatest in scratch resistant at the time, etc. Unfortunately it scratched within a month after my keys managed to slide between the flip cover and gouge a huge slash in the middle of the screen. Of course that sort of damage wasn't covered by the fine print of the warranty. An ounce of prevention is less annoying than a huge gash in the middle of your screen. At least that's where I am.
I'd be happy to scratch the hell out of someone else's screen to test it, though. I wonder if Best Buy frowns on bringing nails into the store...
No.
I don't think its necessary at all.. we have gorilla glass
even with a sharp pebble I wasn't able to scratch the display

I say keep the protector if it doesn't bug you.
I had an invisible shield from Zagg and it soon bugged me and I took it off.
That being said gorilla glass IS NOT impossible to scratch, in the light mine shows quite a few minor scratches now.
I scratched my screen. so better safe than sorry
Thanks for the input guys. Guess I'll keep it on since it doesn't really bug me.

Confirmed! It is possible to scratch it - I can see it everytime I look on it ...
Well some day i take off the original protector (the new one) and i like it moore, i like the touch of my finger with the screen but after arround 3 weeks i notice a 2 little scratches... i just bought a Invisible shield and it's pretty ok. I don't have another option, i think.

I had a martin fields protector on my desire for a year, there expensive but worth the money. You can't tell it's there, but they do scuff up and scratch.

You don't need screenprotector for this phone, bcuz i think it has gorilla glass. I've been using this phone for 8 months now, but still no scratches.
-----------------------------
Sent From,
PHONE: LG Optimus Black P970
ROM: Zeus v3.2N
KERNEL: Diana v0
ClockworkMod.
I bought and a couple of times they have saved my screen , I bought them on ebay on Italian sites, you must be careful to have this form, look at pictures in the link ,there are different types ,with few cutters are better.
I have to agree that there very few situations where screen protector will help at all.
Only if you actually grinding the screen on sand or metal edges there will be use.
In reality a silicon or TPE bumper will give you much better protection.
I mean the gorilla glass really WORKS on this phone, being so lightweight there is hardly any pressure when you put out down. Off out falls from high enough nothing will save it.
I only have couple of little scratches and they are self inflicted (cutter knife ) to see the actual force that starts to make visible damage.
P.s. And not to sound out of idea i actually had couple of protectors. One was utter rubbish and peeled within a week. The other was good, stuck alright and was hard (ish) enough but there was some obvious loss of sensitivity of the screen - more often undetected button touch, wrong button etc.
So ended taking it of.
I prefer some (possible) scratches but responsive screen and less reflection and natural colours.
I've been using on my phone a Clear screen protector for a month,
But the problem is that the screen protector isn't smooth and it's hard to slip the finger on this screen protector.
Therefore, I've purchased a matte screen protector, once I'll receive it, I will write a review about it, but I've already seen it, and it's so smooth.
I used to have a nice 20+€ screen protector on the phone for about two or three months, then it lost the touch after it gained a few scratches so I took it off and was going to buy a new one.. that was more than 3 months ago and still haven't needed a protector for my screen, over 3 months "unprotected" no bag no silicon, nothing and still 0 scratches. one doesn't really need a protector with this screen.
I had my phone since 1 month, it got some hardly noticeable scratches :S
It sucks... I have to get a screen protector now..
Got a screen protector with a silicon case from ebay for a few euros and the protector is already on it for 6 months and seems to be glued onto it (so excellent one) and the silicon case saved my phone a few times already from being seriously scratched or broken. Worth the few euros for sure, especially if you want to sell it one day (now it is still as new)!!!
I use screen protector. I bought 5 for a bunch of euros. Even with Gorila Glass it's never to much protection
I think we don't need any screen protector.. gorilla glass is too good on our black.. you can see many videos in youtube about gorilla glass durability
Been using 3$ anti-glare for all this time
So far so good

Anyone have tried the invisible shield full protection ?
I....use invisible shield.....from ZAGG.The screen protector is not so good.Its litle "sticky"wnen toy touch him.The all telephone is like "fake"on toch.But protetion is realy amazing..
after i read this thread, took out my screen protector form OB. Now my device looks as good as new. Forgotten how beautiful the screen is without screen protector on it.
Personally I like a anti fingerprint screen protector on my OB... I know gorilla glass is very nice and strong. but I hate it to be super smooth resulting in super sensitive touch. With a screen protector it is not so smooth and I can do some pin point accuracy on the touch screen.
i recomented this...:

No matter what CPU and other specs your phone have you will always look at the screen and I want the best of it. For that reason I'll rather take the risk of taking extra care of the naked screen than even a 5% compromise of screen clarity due to the screen protector. What's the point of the IPS technology if the cover will reduce it to normal LCD or Pentile quality.

Advantages and disadvantages of screen protector

Are there any advantages or disadvantages by putting screen protector on my galaxy ace. Heard that som epeople put them, and after they removed it, there stayed permanent damages.
I use a screen protector and have no issues. They used to effect the touchscreen, but newer capactive touch screens have no issues. They protect my screen from a lot of scratches.
A word of advice: buy the more expensive ones - their thicker and leave less bubbles.
When putting one on, do it from the longest edge. You'll be able to line it up better.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk 2
theres no real disadvantages. They tend to get grubbier than the screen would, but you dont get scratches (theres a lot of debate over wether the ace has gorilla glass, many sources say it does, but equally many, including samsung say it doesnt).
Advantages, well, saves scratches and once every month or so you change it and get to have a whole new phone all over again.
i actually tend to go with the short side first (generally starting at the button edge) and working up with a credit card.
i just buy a new rubberised case/screenprotector/stylus combi on ebay once a month.. keeps my phone pristine so when it comes to upgrade i can still get a decent price.
but anyway, there will be those that show you youtube videos of people attacking an ace with keys and not scratching, there will be others you tell you their screen got scratched while it was in their pocket.
I cant think of a valid argument for having one. If the girls says shes on the pill, you still wear a condom
personally have one original from Samsung for SGA from retailer since i bought my phone.. it feels pretty good to have a good protector screen remains smooth and no scratches at all.. actually my phone after cleaning dirt looks like just unboxed even after 9 months fell 2-3 times but nothing happened anywhere
The way I look at it is that if you don't mean to beat your phone up, you shouldn't need a screen protector. The galaxy ace comes with gorilla glass and mine hasn't been scratched since I got it in November. I've accidentally dropped it screen down a few times too.
Either way its your choice. Just my 2 cents
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA
Its a must have, no questions asked.
theres a lot of confusion over gorilla glass, samsung dont say it has, gorilla glass says it does.
But, worth remembering. Gorillla glass is SCRATCH RESISTANT, not scratch proof.
For the sake of a couple of dollars, why not have a protector anyway.

Well I see your point there. So yeah, it's not a bad investment. I just wish I could find a mirrored one But you're right, in the long run it will probably be worth it. Just like a case, we don't mean to drop our phones, but it's definately a worth it
no brainer
If your phone gets a scratch without a protector then your gonna have to look at that scratch till upgrade time...............
If you phone gets a scratch with a screen protector then its easy to replace the flimsy bit of plastic
Just put it on and forget about it.
I have a plastic cover on my Ace's screen and it works like a charm. Screen is still brand new too. I actually stabbed my phone with a knife to see how good it was. The plastic has a hole but the screen is still epic
And its not even a hole, its just a little dot. The plastic barely gets scratched too. Its a win-win situation.

Knife your unprotected screen, there won't be a scratch either. Gorilla glass doesn't scratch easily.
The screen protector serves a more useful purpose at making the screen smoother, less reflective, and retain less fingerprints.

I guess accidents doesnt exist in your perfect world.
However, someone in the first page said to buy the more expensive ones, thats just a load of bull. Cheap ones from ebay work just as good. These screen protectors cost 0.1$ to manufacture so that's why they're able to make money even if they sell em cheap.
edit: 0.12$ to be more exact
I don't use any screen protector.
Glas don't scratches like the old touchscreens
which react react pressure.
As per my opinion there is not any disadvantage for using screen protector.It always protect your screen from scratches.
Why?
I'll never understand screen protector users. Our phone has Guerrilla Glass, designed so you DON'T need a screen protector, and it works. I've never had a screen protector on my Ace, or any of my phones for that matter, and none of my screens have scratches or marks.
My Ace Screen looks like it just came out of the box, and it has been dropped, and I have even tested the durability of the screen by trying to scratch it with a knife, keys, and sand paper... and it still looks brand new.
Screen protectors make the phone screen feel less slick and smooth, and they are difficult to put on and remove without air bubbles all while staying centered. You can't even force out most air bubbles with a credit card or flat edge. They also make the screen less responsive, although this isn't much of an issue with capacitive touch screens anymore, it still happens if your protector is too thick.
What are you doing that you need a protector? I carry my keys and stuff in one pocket and my phone in the other, and even if they are in the same pocket, none of my phones have ever been scratched by anything in my pocket...

You can't even force out most air bubbles with a credit card or flat edge. They also make the screen less responsive, although this isn't much of an issue with capacitive touch screens anymore, it still happens if your protector is too thick.
What are you doing that you need a protector? I carry my keys and stuff in one pocket and my phone in the other, and even if they are in the same pocket, none of my phones have ever been scratched by anything in my pocket...

Every ace is different some aces have the guerilla glass some don't.
I am one of those persons with a bad screen, it scratches too fast.
