scratch on screen

The scratch is only about a hair deep. The digitizer isnt broke so the touch screen works but i hate that scratch. What could possibly fill that in?

Google liquid lens scratch repair kit. Not sure if it will work for screens but it's possible.

One thing for sure, Displex wont work, just got my first scratch after few months today, and tried with Displex.

That's why I ALWAYS use a screen protector ... who wants to look thru scratches

You guys must have dropped it or scraped something hard against it to scratch Gorilla Glass, and yes, the Mytouch does have it.

My wedding band is tungsten carbide. I don't know of anything harder. I scratched mine withing a few days of owning it.

If you knew how to read correctly, Gorilla Glass only protects against COMPRESSIVE damage, that is, dropping a ball on it. Scratches are not compressive. Well OK, they sort of are. Scratches are pressing down while moving with a sharp object. But still, different physics.

That doesn't seem to accurate, HTC has already confirmed that the mytouch 4G does not have gorilla glass. That list also claims that the original mytouch and g1 have gorilla glass which is absolutely absurd.

yea thats weird.. it pretty much says every single HTC android phone ever made has gorilla glass..

Just because it has gorilla glass does not mean you don't need a screen protector.
The glass does not prevent scratching. It only means more direct pressure is needed for the glass to crack.
It still will break. And it sure as hell will still scratch.
Its like dad always said... if your gonna be silly.. wrap that Willy.

Gorilla Glass my Arse!

OK, just noticed a bloody scratch on the phone. It's in my pocket (on it's own, nothing EVER goes in the same pocket as my phone) and when not in my pocket it's face up on my desk at work or on the coffee table at home so I've no idea how it happened
Would anyone here look to get it replaced as I'm tempted to?

Gorilla Glass is simply not scratch proof
Compared to other screens(displays) it is more durable, but it is still possible to brake and/or scratch it.

If I was within my 14 days I'd return it, they didn't check any of the phones I returned for scratches and what not...just for the problems I stated.

Then why do shops/operators say it will stop scratches? My Desire has lasted 14 months without a scratch, albeit in a case with a screen protector. I've not got one yet for the Sensation as of this Gorilla Glass thing.
I'm gonna go see if I can get it exchanged as otherwise the phone has been perfect

is your screen flat or do the edges curve up?

@EddyOS
HTC (or any other manufacturer tells operators "extremely high durability"
Most of them (80%) do understand that as : unbreakable,unscratchable , anti-fingerprints but this is simply not true. (Smart step form HTC )
as for the people who sell the phones. They are just simple sales man they mostly don't even know how phones hardware works or in this case what Gorilla glass is.
They have only one goal : To sell handsets

I know that! I wasn't conned into buying the phone but even the Gorilla Glass website says that it should withstand a bit of fluff (or whatever has managed to get onto the screen of my phone). I have had a lot of phones and always do my research before getting one and, as it happens, I won this Sensation.
As for screen itself, it is contoured as it should be but regardless the screen is ALWAYS face up so it shouldn't matter

Maybe they upgrade it to King Kong glass instead of Gorilla.

Seriously, though, I can't see how this has happened as I'm anal about my phones so I wouldn't have let this happen. All other users, take heed and get a screen protector/case if you've not got one already

Gorilla glass is brilliant imo but its not bomb proof. I have the slightest little scratch on my screen but I dread to think what it would be like with normal glass. But I was still disappointed, so now iv found some good screen protectors and all of a sudden aswell as protection, I can't even see the scratch anymore.
Also got some displex just incase

And just to reiterate what has been said, Gorilla Glass is not scratch proof, just less susceptible to them.

As a fellow scouser and vodafone migrent i feel compelled to help.
I got my Sensation from their forum for an early upgrade all went well, the first 2 and a half weeks i had that screen problem where it wouldnt unlock.
i contacted the forum and they took too long to respond, so I took a step to call 191, they where fantastic, despite it being way out of the 7day cool off by about 10 days they exchanged it with out fuss.
my advice would be to call them and not use the forum as they are very slow to respond, and when calling do not mention a scratch, they will deem this as your fault so use the 'my screen is not working properly, when i touch it, 2 out of 5 presses are not registered'
i am 95% positive that way you will have a new phone by the end of next week!
edit: just realised you have insurance, I didnt so I am even more positive they will exchange it!

You will probably find the scratch is on the anti-glare/anti-fingerprint coating on the screen rather than the glass, assuming it has that coating on the gorilla glass like the GS2 has.
Let's be honest, a small scratch caused by yourself isn't really a justifiable reason for swapping a phone, unless you lie Vodafone will refuse it. And that goes double for the insurance.

But it wasn't caused by myself. I treat my phones like the most precious thing in my life, polishing it every other time I use it to remove finger prints/grease, etc. It lives alone in my pocket when moving between sites otherwise it's on my desk or coffee table with nothing else around it so I just can't see what scratched it.
Since I've had the phone I've even turned my pockets inside out to check for debris as I didn't wanna scratch it until I'd got a case. I'll see what Vodafone say and go from there. See Martin Fields have released a screen protector so I'll get one ASAP as it was perfect on my Desire

Unless it was on the phone when you bought it, it was caused by yourself, even if you can't think of an explanation of how it happened.
I know how you feel, I have a tiny scratch on my GS2 which also has GG and I can't think for the life of me how it happened -- I put a screen protector on it two days after getting it and changed it for a better protector about a week ago. While changing the protectors I noticed the scratch which could have only happened in the first two days while I was treating it like gold dust. Luckily, it's so small it can't be seen through the screen protector so I'm not bothered about changing it.

Desire S Screen Scratched

Today I noticed a 2 inch scratch on my screen and deep enough to just get your nail in
Has anybody any ideas of what can be used to safely remove this or is it the case of a new screen

Maaaaybe silvo (the finer version of brasso), use this with extreme caution though, your could ruin your screen further! Or even a camera lens scratch repair kit?

Does the screen scratch easily on Desire S?
Sent from my HD2 using XDA App

Gorilla glass is very tough when it comes to scratching it with sharp objects, but you can easily scratch it with dust...
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium

ok as an experianced user i willl tell you this..
the glass is very tough.. but it can scratch very easily with some material.. i managed to scratch mine on the beach, by just one sand grain trapped inside the leather pouch case i have.. the scratch was so deep that my nail could be trapped in there!!!!
what you should not do when you scratch your screen
1. buy a digitizer from ebay..
all ebay digitizers are not original, they are fake, they will not be gorilla glass they will not be smooth to the touch etc..
changing just the digitizer is a very difficult thing to do. just one small dust particle cought between the LCD and the digitizer will show.. in adition there are some small plastics that help to give the light to the 4 buttons on the bottom, those plastics are glued to the digitizer, and are not supplied with the digitizers on ebay, so removing those and re gluing them to the new digitizer will end up with reduced brightness of the 4 buttons.
2. try to sand fix polish the digitizer.. will not work, or at least will end up in a worse looking screen
what you should do (and what i finally did - after doing all of the above that i shouldn't have done)
1. go to HTC and buy the LCD+digitizer combo..
it is sealed and glued together and costs here in Greece 114 euros.
if you want to do a 100% good job buy the middle chassis, this is not needed and i did not buy it (it costs another 30 euros) but it will make your job easier since it has all the double sided tape ready to use on it..
The only downside in buying parts from HTC directly is that they require you to give them your IMEI number, or receipt so they can cancel your warranty !!!!! just buying the part cancels it!!
but once you open up your phone you have already canceled it, it would be obvious that it has been opened
good luck, and if you need anything ask here i will be helping.. i disassembled my desire s more than 20 times

Desire S has no Gorilla glass on
Talked to HTC support many times asking if Desire S is equiped with Gorilla, and the answer was clear: Desire S does not have Gorilla...It uses Asahi glass.
Having scratched Desire S is understandable.

I never knew that! Most reviews state definitively that it has Gorilla Glass, but I guess that catchy name is now fairly "generic" for any kind of toughened glass (like many people say "hoover" when they mean vacuum cleaner).
Still, the Ashai glass looks as if it ought to have similar properties to the original Corning aluminosilicate "Gorilla Glass" :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpbOoQpwAFs&feature=player_embedded

Well there is one new glass made by Asahi called Dragontrail,which is a tough one. But us strongly doubt Desire S using this glass.
You can go ahead and ask HTC about the glass on their Desire S.

My desire S gets scratched really easily. It doesn't bother me much but it's still annoying. Not surprised to hear it doesn't really have gorilla glass. My old desire (class if you will ) didn't get any noticeable scratches and I'd had it for longer and treat it a lot worse. Kind of ridiculous that the screen strength seems to gone down hill even though the advertised strength seems to say it's better.

I wish HTC had an answer to this question why didn't they use Gorilla on Desire S and still charged us with a price of a high end phone?
It really sucks that I have to look through a screen guard and my friend has fun rubbing his key chain on his Samsung Galaxy S.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App

Gorilla is just a brand name for Corning's proprietary brand of aluminosilicate toughened glass. It too can be damaged. Surely what matters is whether whatever HTC are using actually does the job (regardless of brand).
I can quite understand HTC using Ashai because it's probably cheaper.
I accidentally dropped my DS from a height on to a hard surface and it survived just fine Ordinary (soda) glass couldn't do that. Whatever they are using can't be too bad.

Are you using any protection on your screen? If not did you get any scratches on the glass?

Actually, it's still got the original screen protector on it.
I'm not suggesting that the glass HTC can't scratch, but rather that it's probably not really that much different to the original Gorilla glass.
Thinking about it - Didn't another poster note that the Corning site claimed they provided Gorilla Glass for the DS? Perhaps HTC changed supplier at some time?

Original screen protector? Desire S comes with bare glass out of the box. My phone had no screen guard out of box, neither does all unboxing videos on YouTube.

It appears that some of them do come with a protector fitted even in the factory sealed box. It seems that it's usually the unbranded / unlocked ones. This has been the subject of another thread. Mine was so perfectly fitted that I didn't realise it was fitted until I tried to put on a second one and it all went horribly wrong

This is strange. Mine is an unbranded, made in Taiwan,black one. I am using a screen protector which was applied by myself. My phone came to me with no screen protector pre-applied on.
Could HTC be using different kinds of glass on one phone?!

Unless your talking about that giant piece of protection that it comes wrapped with inside the box, I'm calling you out as a liar. Either that or someone had pre-applied a screen protector for you, because no HTC handset comes with a screen protector applied at the factory level.

That's a pretty retarded reason, "Oh I'm going to grab my key chain and try and scratch my phone" -_-" .. As I said in the other thread, its "scratch resistant", not "scratch proof", show me where HTC said it wouldn't scratch or bawwwwww more.

Sometimes it's really annoying, what are you wanting, if you really want to scratch it, you make it for sure.
Guys it's still a smartphone, no Swiss knife.
I got mine since 6 months without screen protector and I got no scratches at all.
I just got a wallet like it's recommended for EVERY smartphone and sometimes I put it in my pocket (in the same where my keys are) without the wallet for a short period and still nothing.
Sometimes it can be scratched by accident for sure, but at other phones it's the same.
So don't blame it on the phone if you got bad luck or not much brain.

Nobody actually tries scratching their phone. What we are asking is why didn't HTC use gorilla on Desire S? Desire S meant to be an improvement for classic Desire but it actually is reduced in glass quality.

So much for Gorilla Glass..

My phone was just knocked off a coffee table onto a rug...
Must have met up with a grain of sand. I'm going to see that every time I look at the phone now...
Lesson learned? Use screen protector, even if you hate the rubbery feel
(tried my best to get a picture of it... pretty difficult to focus on)

I work in general construction. Meaning, dirt and saw dust is constantly flying around. I messed up in not buying a screen protector, and now the screen has a few hair line scratches that are only visible in certain lighting and at certain angles.
I don't really care though, cause I have SquareTrade insurance.

ahhh man i'm sorry . . mines got a few scratches on it which pisses me off everytime i see them, i don't even get how the screen got scratched. but that's just phones nowdays if you don't get a huge otterbox case stuffs gonna go down =/ F an otterbox case tho what's the point of the slimmest phone if we gotta do that?!

I recently dropped my phone as well with a case on, wasn't much help, the screen got chipped. however after examining it further, it seems that the screen has been treated with a gloss or some kind of finish on top of the glass. This may explain the scratching issue. It's really the gloss or finish that's being scratched off.

So I have been contemplating exchanging this phone for another because the lower plastic rear cover sticks out slightly on one side (was that way out of the box)... and I like my expensive things to be as perfect condition as possible (ironic, right?)

If you don't like the rubbery feel look up realook screen protectors on amazon you can't even tell they are there had one on my vibrant for 2 years before I got my one s and it still looks ok considering the abuse I put it through.

I had a Vibrant with Gorilla Glass that lasted 2 years without a screen protector and did not have a scratch on it. I thought my new One S would be the same.
Instead, after only 2 days - never having dropped it and with the phone only residing in my pocket (not the same pocket with my keys and change), my One S somehow got a hairline scratch on the screen.
I have since put a screen protector on it - though I much prefer not having one on it. Every time I see the scratch, I still get annoyed.
My advice to anyone considering buying a One S - before you even leave the store, invest in a screen protector.

Geesh.. makes me wonder if Sony's "scratch resistant" glass is actually any more durable..

I wasn't going to place a protector on my One S... but this changed my mind.

That's why you get a screen protector and a shell case right out of the box. If you are that particular about your expensive phone, it is well worth the extra cash. I got a shell case for mine and a screen protector as soon as I got my one s. Also helps resale value later if you have no scratches on it anyplace. X) I love my phone!

No it is NOT possible to exchange the Corning Gorilla Glass on ONEs since its not just 'glued' to the AMOLED, but its more like soldered to it.
Also as far as I know ver.2 is more thin and pressure resistant (as if you acidently sit on your phone - it's less likely to crack) than ver.1 and for most part it wont be a big deal... just don't hold your phone in your pocket (any pocket for that matter...)
