In the mornings the sensor holes in the protector would fit great. But throughout the day it sort of slides a bit. By night it slightly covers the sensor. Please tell me I'm not crazy. I'm using the ultimate shield tempered glass.
Did you use wet application?

Yesterday I was out and about and had my phone in my pocket, when I pulled it out to check my email, I saw that I had a faint scratch on the screen. My question is how can I remove this scratch without destroying my touchscreen. Is there any solutions out there compatible with the super AMOLED screen???????

The screen is glass - so tricks that work on plastic screens won't work on glass. The AMOLED is below the glass. You need a polish made for glass - best bet is to talk to an optician or glass company.

A screen protector won't help if there is already a scratch. It may prevent more, but that first one will always be there...mocking him...lol

There is a link to a short article and a response in this link. You might be able to try the nail polish method.
Thanks a bunch for all your help. Will try all methods. Already did the banana thing but it didn't work. Thanks anyways.

What about displex? Since the touchscreen is under the glass wouldn't that work?

????????
The scratch is in the glass. The touchscreen is bonded to the glass. There is no plastic to scratch or repair.

Do you use the outside of the banana skin or the inside???? I tried it with the inside.

Oh I see. Well thanks for that solution. I guess I'll just order one of those SGP screen protectors and see if that hides it a little.
Wow that sucks. I carry my bare phone in my pocket with keys and crap but ALWAYS have a thick screen protector. My case is pretty scuffed up but the screen is protected. I hate cases but I hate screen scratches even more.
I even have a screen protector over the camera glass.

This. It pissed me off to no end to discover scratches on my plastic camera lens. Two years of iPhones with scratch resistant glass camera lenses and now another scratch-magnet plastic one. I feel like I've gone back in time to my Tilt all over again.
I had a small screen protector on the camera lens, but it was reducing the optical clarity quite significantly. Have you discovered a brand that retains the right clarity to have on the camera lens?

Actually, I have "fixed" scratches on iPhones in the past by putting a screen protector on it.
Did it remove or actually fix the scratch - no. Did it dramatically reduce the appearance of the scratch - yes.
The existence of the scratch bothers much less if I cannot see it.
I just bought a used Captivate to play and it has a couple scratches on the screen. I plan to go get a screen protector/skin and see if it helps.
How to Remove Screen Scratches from Galaxy S I9000.
I bought DISPLEX Display Polish, But it says: Do not use on touchscreens and Polycarbonate(PC). Any ideas?...
screen protectors is what first came to mind
but obviously it's too late for that.
not exactly sure if there is any creme you can use to repolish the scratched surface.
might have to just live with it and put a screen protector on top, and see if that hides the scratch.
How bad is the scratch?
got picture?
set camera to macro mode
Scratches on my screen are very small. If i slide with my finger over my screen, i can fill some of them. Sorry for the bad quality of the pic.

Not only keys, also screwdrivers.
Thanks for the answer. I will notice that for the Future.
I have problem with screenprotector I have temperered glass 0,3 mm, up in the right corner it release. I have test with four pieces now after about four day it release, only in the right upper corner. So now I use plastic protections but I don't like the plastic protection.
Someone else that have this problem? My friend has an iPhone 6 and he has exactly the same problem in the right upper corner.

I used to have a similar problem and noticed that in my case the reason was moisture. I started to use zipper storage bags to protect my phone while exercising and at other times started to keep the phone in my pockets so that the screen was pointing outwards, not against my leg.
Same problem here, just avoid moisture on the screen

They usually have 2 thickness but throughout my devices I never had a single problem fitting or with protection.
My only gripe is refitting, I always screw it up.
Anyone else have a small but pretty noticeable line of dust collecting between the front glass and top edge of the phone?
Just appears as a white line that's visable from almost all angles, not sure if it's a fault, unusual amount of pocket lint or something else.
No pics as of yet, I'll take some later when home with the missus phone.
Thanks.
Same have some on the side between glass and frame.
I thought that these things were supposed to be dustproof and waterproof.
You can wash it off. Not a big deal any more.

I have a glass screen proc and skin on the back of the phone, so I'm guessing we're talking submersion, which means these will come off?

It's definitely waterproof, I "accidentally" dropped it into my fresh water, no soap bath. I believe the dust is only going so far and stopping at the "seal"
Thanks for the input people...
Unfortunately I got drunk the other day and the next morning I noticed a couple silver dots / a couple small nicks in the circled area below. I can feel them a bit with my finger nail. I tried to cover it up using a permanent marker but it looks like crap. Any way to fix it?
Here's what it pretty much looks like up close.

I cannot see the scratches in your photos, maybe you can try this: https://www.amazon.com/DISPLEX-Scra...pID=51jsbOhc71L&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch, it did a pretty good job for me hiding some light/medium scratches on the screen.

Yeah, I thought of this too. My concern is that it wouldn't blend and would have two different looking spots just like the marker did.

tape out both sides of the led light/lens and finger print reader as to only have the small 'bridge' between the two sections where your scratches are nit taped. tape off also bottom and top where the camera section meets the body of the phone. make nice and straight tape lines. then paint and varnish the exposed section . it will be barely visible if you do a good tape job. paint black wait for it to be dry enought then , varnish and remove tape after a few minutes when the varnish is still a bit soft. then for the love of god get a case.

I'll give it a try. And I've had a unicorn beetle case on it since day 1. I also kept on the back protector that it comes with, put on a screen protector, and even put narrow strips of clear packing tape on the right left and top bezel/frame of the phone and then put it into the case. The camera/finger print area is the only unprotected area on my phone. I actually just now put a piece of scotch tape over the fingerprint reader to protect it from scratches and it still works perfectly.
must have been real unlucky to had it dinged just at the wrong place.
That's what happens when you get arrested for public intox and cops confiscate your phone and put it in a bag with your keys.
So should I paint the whole "bridge" or just the two nicks?

maybe the whole thing as it might be less apparent and more cimetric. you could also paint the whole thin bezel to. might protect against future alcohol related endeavours.
I might paint the whole thing. Could I actually make it look as good as it originally is? What do you think about taping it off and spray painting? Idk how to tape off the curved edges of the camera/finger print reader.

spray paint on such a small surface... i dont know. put at least 3 coats. each coat must be thin and uniform. spray at a far distance.
painting on smooth surfaces usualy requires an enameled paint. U need a paint that will resist chipping and that will cure hard.
https://plaidonline.com/brands/folkart/enamels
as for your taping skills then stick to first picture to keep things simple and straight lined.
you could also use a wide tape and cut out the sections with a sharp razor that you need to paint.
when using multiple coats you need to wait a bit between each so it dries enough. keep in mind you still need to have the total coats to be flexible enough so when you remove tape that it will be removed easily and not chip the section you just painted. maybe practice on a piece of glass before.
anyways just be sure surface is grease free before painting.
