if its an app that you have downloaded then keep your finger pressed on it until it gives you some options. Delete will be one of them or you could download an apps uninstaller.
Sorry should have mentioned it was a screen protector.

place a piece of tape onto the screen protector, make sure a bit of it does not stick to it, pull it upwards and the screen protector should lift of.
Do it near the edge, but have the tape go towards center of screen.
Hey which steinheil do u have? Can u tell me if its good? Why do u want to remove it? Does it left many fingerprints on it and are they easy to remove? Is there a rainbow effect when it gets wet or fatty?
Im thinking about buying one too.

Hi,
So far so good. I rushed putting this one on and it is not straight! It is great though, but does get the rainbow from my fingers sometimes. A quick wipe on my short and I'm good to go.

I find that with protectors that have been in a while I need to pull away and up to get the tape method to work.
Freshly put on ones come up easily though.

If you're using a cheap thin protector, the sgp's are a good upgrade.
There are plenty of reviews in these forums ans youtube though!
I have the Ultra Clear, and you get the occasional rainbow and fingerprint. It's much less than the cheaper ones I've had before though.
A quick wipe gets rid of most prints too. Unlike one protector I had that would just smudge them around the screen.

Isn't the screen on the N1 glass?
From the idrops website: "Carefully squeeze one to four drops onto the plastic, polycarbonate, or acrylic surface of your device"
http://www.wirelessground.com/saguaki.html
Has anyone tried this? Does it work?
If you read the end it states "not use on touch screen displays"
I guess i wont risk my baby..

iDrops, and most other scratch removers, are only for plastics... not glass, which is what your N1 screen is. You'll either create microscratches on the screen or remove part of the top coating on the screen.
i used t-cut glass polish on my nexus it got rid of the scratch i got when i stupidly put my phone in the same pocket as my keys
and a chamois leather is great for stubborn finger prints
To be honest, any mild abrasive would probably do. It's not as if the N1 has any anti-reflective coating or anything. Even a simple toothpaste and microfiber cloth would do the trick.
I find toothpaste is great at removing light scratches, won't cost you anything either.

What is a result?
Try PlastX from meguiers. Ived used it and its safe. Try in a corner of the screen first. Be sure its clean. Rub gently with a cotton fiber towel, not a bathroom towel.

Hi!
I dropped my phone on a solid ground and scratched the top part of the Samsung Galaxy S2 edge.
is there any good way to repair this so it isnt as visible as it is now?
I hope someone can help and give me a tip on a way to do it.
This is not the screen itself but the sourrounding edges.
Whoa..Okay.. Well there is some methods to Fix that, You should try:
1) Nail polish- yeah that could sound funny , but you can always try hiding the scratches with clear nail polish remover.
2) Turtlewax- You should try that, it Repairs car scratches, PSP, MP3 player's etc. You should try that too.
GoodLuck with that! Have a Great Day!

You can just get a case for it - scratches covered. My Evo is the same way - chipped all to pieces around the corners. I still keep it naked though, I prefer it without a case/screen protector.
Maybe I'm just strange.

your not strange.. i feel the same way...

I bought 3 sets of screen protectors. One from china, one from the us, one from ny. Random sellers with good ratings. Turns out the ones from us and china scratched when even wiped with the given cloth. And the one from ny had way too many bubbles (not due to dust. It was because it was too stiff?)
So if anyone has any extras that are good that you can spare, would you be willing to donate it to me? . Please and thank yous!

i actually just got a couple of screen protectors from eBay and they were pretty good. Went on nice, with no bubbles or deteriorating of visual quality. its also fingerprint proof which is really convenient especially since i use my phone a lot. check it out, pretty good price

I will vouch for the protectors BlazinHitman posted, I bought 1 while I was waiting on my G2x to arrive and I will say it is a pretty decent screen shield. Also out of sheer curiosity I ordered a set from T-Mobile and the ones I go from then were the worst ones I have ever seen. They give you these mm thick bullet proof screen shields that you can barely see through. Almost makes your display look like a old school gameboy
ahaha hows the touch screen with the screen protector? ahahah. and just out of curiosity, if we cant put the protector on with the first try, is it still good for a second go? as my hands arent very stable.

I got a TPU case and screen protector and epic failed to put it on. I had to trash it. I just bought the ones from the link above, they could be a little different, and maybe I'll have better luck with my hands this time around. If not, oh well, it's $2.
yeeee. good luck to us.

That. Screen protector will not affect the touch screen. And you can reuse it as long as you don't put any bends/creases in it.

No no no, the mm thick one I was referring to was the ones I bought from T-Mobile when I ordered the phone. Those things I swear are thick enough to be bullet proof. The ones you ordered are thin, and clear. You will not even know you have it on the phone when you get it on.
cool. is it scratch proof? not totally scratch proof, i mean like scratchproof from like cards and stuff. .
and does anyone have the replacement tools to change the bezel? i ordered a bezel but it didnt come with the tools. . if anyone has extras, would ya'll be kind enough to send me a screw driver and on of those poppy thingies? thanks )). i cant stand scratches or marks on my phone so i wipe the phone everytime i take it out of my pocket. and the guy i bought it from screwed me over by giving me a screwed up bezel with dents and really noticable scratches.
thanks~~~.

I put mine on using my old blockbuster card and had no problems or any scuff marks.
And I do not have any small tools like that sorry.
yea like panowolf suggested use a credit card or something like that to smooth out the screen protector when u put it on. also make sure to clean it extra well, it comes with a couple of cleaning cloths. if you put it on correctly u should be good to go
i read that its reusable. we can just wash it?
the thing is... the crap screen protectors i got from china scratched from the credit card. (lol). or maybe i was just pressing too hard.which still doesnt mke any sense.

Yes you can reuse/wash it. Just be sure to put it on slow. Most people who put them on themselves just lay the entire protector down and try to work the bubbles out. You gotta slowly apply it and work the air out as you go. But im sure you know this already
I ordered the lifetime stealth shieldz from amazon, 2 for 5 bucks in case you needed another for whatever reason. I've only had it on for a couple weeks but it still looks as good as new, feels good no scratches and still perfectly clear.

are you talking about the sides? cause then yea i see what your talking about, thats the only problem with these, other ways it covers the entire screen lengthwise including the soft keys and up to the top by the front camera
Same question. Does anyone have experience getting the full width screen protectors?
Specifically I'm looking for either matte or mirror ones.
Hi guys i have scratched my screen i know i should have been using a screen protector but just not go around to buying a new set.
Any way could someone point me in the direction of getting a new screen.
Also is it worth letting LG do it iv called them and the warranty does not cover the glass.
Any parts will have to be in the UK as i am also i had a look on ebay and have no idea what is official and what is not
Let me know guys thanks
What kind of scratch? Screen protectors can just cover it up so that you can ignore it and prevent further scratches. This saves at least $40 and prevent s you from having to open the phone up

Its a pretty deep scratch and goes from one side of the screen to the other
try a thick wet screen protector first then see if that fixes it
Would Liquid armor fill in the scratch? Best screen protection I've used to date, and I've had a fair share of phones

If your screen is not to scratched, you can install a privacy screen protector or a matte one, and you wont notice it anymore. Remember this will work only if it's not to much damage on the screen. Send photos to see the damage if you have them.
Liquid Armor will not Fix or Fill or Protect you screen.
It may only give you Water Spill-Resistant for a short time.
Please test it with Soil, Dust or Sand & you will learn a big lesson like my friend...!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SPIGEN-SG...ting_LaptopAccessories_RL&hash=item2c6a928c9e
I have used this screen protector before and it was pretty could you just have to make sure theres not one spec of dust on the screen before hand...
I'm also for XO Skin. Spectacular stuff; and it WILL take away scratches that aren't super deep. Spigen seems good, but its a dry application that's more of a hard film. It may take away some light scratches, but I don't think it will get in and fill the deeper scratches that you may have. XO would be your best bet. There's other wet protectors, but from what I've tried, the others are junk.
Does the N5 come with a basic, from-factory film to protect the screen? If so, does it have random markings on it like the N4 did (example: volume). I would like to keep it on as long as possible before 3rd party screen protectors come on, but have yet to find any legitimate protectors yet.
It has nexus 5 right across the middle of it

Says "nexus5" on it, right in the middle, but it's fine to keep on till you get your screen protector. I've left my own on, don't even have a Sim in there though so not even using it!! it's just sitting here.
Never used a screen protector on my phones. Main issue is dropping the phone and cracking the screen.
