Exactly! I use a microfiber cloth everyday and use LCD/Plasma cleaning spray when it gets real dirty.

ya, even then, i dont think i would ever use any type of "chemical" that isnt water

DO NOT USE CLEANING SOLUTIONS.
This phone has an oleophobic coating on it, unlike LCD/Plasma TV's. Unless someone does a study on the effect of cleaning solutions on that coating, I wouldn't risk messing it up with a cleaner.
Here's how I clean my screen. You have a clean microfiber cloth, which is good. I start by going over the screen in circular motions, using medium pressure (I'm not a buff guy, so use lighter pressure if you are). Then i gently blow on the screen to very slightly fog it up, and immediately go over it again with circular motions. Switching between clockwise/anticlockwise helps. If any spots are left, I go over them with slightly harder pressure, but never in a scraping motion ... just circular buffing.
Note that the cloth used for cleaning needs to actually absorb the oils, so maybe yours isn't in such great shape and is just smearing the oils around (hence the rainbow effect).

Since there have been so many threads on this, someone should go out and make a tutorial video on cleaning your screen

Are y'all playing in the mud or something?
I have had no problems wiping the screen the few times it has had a print or two on it...

okay.... so... im about to buy a microfiber cloth as you all suggested! YAY!

Get a good microfiber cloth. I personally love Fossil's (the watch company). I use it for my glasses mostly.
Hold the phone with your left hand, cover it with the microfiber cloth, use the bottom of your palm on top of the screen, wipe like crazy in every direction for 2-3 seconds, you're done.
LOL. You can wipe it anyway you want, no particular way, just wipe. It's fine.

+1 on Micro Fibre.

How often do you guys change your microfiber cloth? Mine's getting a bit grimy from constant use and dust. Is it even washable? I'm using one that came with my Ipod Touch.

This is quoted from Autogeek.net http://www.autogeek.net/mi101.html
Wash your microfiber in the washing machine with detergent only. Tumble them dry on low heat or no heat. High heat will literally melt the fibers while fabric softener and bleach will eliminate the electric charge that makes microfiber so effective. Avoid those three laundry habits, and your microfiber will last indefinitely.

[Q] What should I use to Clean my Xoom Screen?

What is the best thing to use to clean the Xoom screen?
Thanks.

I use alcohol wipes that we have at work for cleaning computer screens and the like. After that take a lint-free cloth to remove streaks. Works like a charm!

Thanks I'll give it a try now.

I buy "Electronic Cleaning Wipes" by Nice'n Clean at the all mighty wal-mart. You can use them on any electronics. They were a little pricey but worth every penny. I use them on my keyboard, xoom, and my daughters face very versatile.
The packaging is very similar to the attached only the electronics version has a monitor on it. Has a flap you can open and close. Keeps them moist. If you ever had kids they are like baby wipes or at least thats what the wife says, cause you know I'm a man and would never change a diaper thats womens work.
I kid people relax....

Have you used them on laptop monitors, the plastic ones? Does the alcohol in it not mess with the plastic, I know it is not relavent for the Xoom as it has glass, but if I buy it for the Xoom will want to use it on my phone, HD tv, laptop, and everything.
Any ideas?

I have used them on my laptop without issue. I would think that they would have considered that when they developed the product. Sure would be a lot of pissed of costumers when there monitor turned to hazz. But ya they seem safe. Says on the package "Alcohol Free" so no sense in eating them i guess.
Attached actual image of product:
One more thing .. don't stick them in your eye..

Alcohol should not be a problem. However, if you used nail polish remover (acetone, ethyl acetate) then you're in trouble. Of course you shouldn't immerse the plastic in alcohol but giving it a quick rub doesn't hurt. I used the wipes on LCD screens, keyboard, mice, trackpad etc. and everything is still working.

Thanks guys.
Will try look for that product or the equivalent here.

Costco optical cleaning kit
You can buy a kit in the Costco optical department that has two really nice microfiber cloths and 2 spray bottles of gentle cleaner for $5. They even let you refill the solution bottles for free.
I use these items to clean my phone, xoom, TV, laptop, etc. Works great!

Yes I use a microfiber cloth as well. The kind they give you with a screen protector which I never use anymore.

Most electronics manufacturers agree that a 50/50 blend of distilled water and isopropyl alcohol (90%+) works best (don't use rubbing alcohol, it has additives). Spray the solution on a microfiber cloth and clean just about any screen without worry. Never use glass cleaner on LCDs as many have a plastic coating that can fog from the ammonia.

Hi. That sounds great. Do you have references for this information?
Don't mean to sound distrusting, just want to see who says it, because if it works, then this will be the solution for me. Because I am a Chem masters student, so isopropanol is really easy to get hold of for me, I can get the really pure stuff.
Thanks

On a quick search, I found 7 different sites all recommending isolpropanol solutions for cleaning LCD screens specifically. So I believe you now. This is good news for me. Just need to buy little spray bottle, and figure out what a microfibre cloth is.
Are they the cloths that come with sunglasses and spectacles?

What do you guys think about using kimwipes? If they're safe to use on laboratory microscopes, they should be fine with the coatings on these touch screens.

Typically yes. Most department stores sell microfiber dishcloths and dish towels. I use the dish towel so I don't have to was it as often when cleaning monitors.

They are still not as lint-free as microfiber I find but they do work. You will still need some kind of alcohol or detergent to remove the smudges though.

I read, somewhere on the internet, that Rain-X works great. It also keeps down the fingerprints, and smudging. I have not tried this, but it sounds viable.

here are two threads discussing it on the nook color
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894197&highlight=rain

it makes the screen slick and fingerprints can be wiped very easily. down side is that you have really work hard on cleaning off all the rain x if you want to apply a screen protector.

Is the Xoom screen Gorilla Glass?

Here a smudge, there a smudge, everywhere a.....

Anyone else noticed that if you do use your Note 10.1 with your finger instead of the stylus, it's smudge city?!??! Compared to my spouse's ipad, it's like night and day. If we both use our tablets for 20 minutes, then turn them off, the ipad shows very few faint smudges, while my note 10.1 looks like grease on top of grease.
What i really want to know is if anyone has found a great screen cover/film that doesn't in any way inhibit the stylus but that is more smudge free than the glass as it comes.
Of course most of the time when the screen is on and bright you don't notice the smudges, but if you go to watch a movie then anytime there's a dark scene the smudges are VERY annoying.
Thanks,
Eric

Well the upside is that with the gorilla glass a simple wipe on the pant leg and all smudges are gone. I have never used an iPad before so cant comment but any Android tablet or phone i have ever used gets filthy pretty fast. We humans are oily creatures.

I don't notice smudges on the glass at all and I rarely use my stylus.

funny, i was noticing how smudge resistant this note is compared to 10 of my other devices lol.

Same here
I also see the smudges everywhere. I just keep a microfiber cloth with me and am constantly wiping it clean. Using the Pen instead does help a lot.

Yes, it does get a lot of smudges. Two things, either matted screen protector or micro fiber cloth will do the job.

Yes i have noticed alot of smudges. I dont use screen protectors but i do use Rainx ( 2-3 coats) on a clean screen and smudges are less and it is a lot easier to get rid of the ones you do get. you will need to coat is every couple of weeks. A couple drops on a rag- Wax on wax off...:fingers-crossed:
You can find it in most auto sections in stores. Been using it a long time and swear by it. :angel:

As is in every aspect of life every person has a different constitution of her/his finger grease. So You can't compare another one's iPad with Your 10.1 AND MOST IMPORTANT !!!!! almost all Screens of Tabs and phones are the same gorilla glass.
So why should one screen be more susceptible to finger grease than others if it's always the same glass ?

A piece of cloth designed for cleaning glasses in one´s pocket will do an excellent job too, one swipe and the GG is clean :laugh:

i've used rain-x since the old nook color. it doesn't stop streaks, but makes them come off easier. i quit using it after someone said that i could destroy the oiliph-something coating that supposed keep it streak free. but since it doesn't work well i may just go back to the rain-x. and my ipad does get just as smudgy, it's just easier to clean.

Lol if there is a coating on here that is supposed to keep it streak free it isn't working.

I use the small yellow bottle of rainX for windshields- original glass treatment. and place a couple drops on a rag and wipe in on and wipe it off. repeat 2-3 times and glass is smooth as butter and - for me- alot less smudges- and yes the ones you do get come off alot quicker.
I have used it on every device i have owned and never had issues with coating etc.... :angel:
Yes a dry rag will work too- but you wont have to use the rag as much if you coat with Rainx. just saying.

Now when it comes to flu-season: get a hand disinfectant liquid, use it always before You tap Your screen and You'll be smudgefree and free of flu :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

I always use that after i .......... nvm.. just know its like baking soda, used for everything! : D
we don't see things as they are; we see things as we are.

LOL - so the consensus is just that I have very dirty, oily hands! Thanks for that. Well, I "heard" that the ipad glass has an anti-smudge coating, but that was from an i-everything fanboy so who knows. I wondered if our gorilla glass screen was treated differently for some reason because of the stylus. Doesn't sound like it.
I do use a micro-fiber cloth and yes, it does remove the smudges, especially if used in conjunction with a tablet/laptop screen cleaning solution. I just didn't know if someone had a recommendation for a screen film that was anti-smudge, but I didn't really want to use one of those anyway as I'm afraid it would effect smoothness of use with stylus.
Still debating the rain-x idea. Never thought of that. Like the idea - little worried about long term effects.
Okay, I'm going to go wash my dirty, oily hands again now...

FWIW, I have very dry hands which would account form the lack of finger prints. On top of that, I rarely eat junk food. When I did have some chips the other night my screen showed the prints.

How do you clean your Nexus 4

I found that the nexus touchscreen attracts tons of fingerprints compared to other phones. It may just be my screen protector, who knows, but I was wondering how do you guys properly clean your nexus ?

I just simply wipe it down real good with microfiber cloth. I need to find a way to extract the dust from the front speaker grille. I've tried gum method but didn't help

Exactly! I have dust stuck in there too......it gets so annoying when the entire phone is completely clean and there's dust in that little gap....

First you said its the touchscreen, then you said its your screen protector. Buy a higher quality oleophobic screen protector like Spigen. You can carry a microcloth with you as well.

I just use the corner of a piece of paper, such as a PostIt note, and gently run it the length of the gap.

Glasses cloth. If really sticky, soap & water and glasses cloth

Get a keyboard co2 dust spray???

I wonder if you could apply an oleophobic coating on a screen protector? Like I bought the spigen crystal cause I figured the oleophobic one would lose that layer eventually anyway just like glass screens. But if you could DIY it you could get whatever screen protector you want and then just buy the spray.

I lick the screen with my tongue and wipe it dry on somebody's shirt. Works with any phone, difficult with tablets though.

My compressor set to 100psi...although a can of dust off should work :laugh:

I used an old toothbrush and it cleaned it pretty good.

I generally just wipe it off with my shirt... if I'm at home I'll give it a good lick and wipe it off. Way serious.

How is the oleophobic coating holding up?

I've owned a nexus 4 for six months before this. The screen feels better than the nexus 4 in hand, don't know if it's because of the gorilla glass 3 or different coating. Did anyone's coating wear off yet? I'm refraining from cleaning the display because I'm scared the coating will wear off. It also isn't getting dirty in the first place, the oleophobic coating is good this time.

I never had an issue with the N4 regarding the oleophic coating wearing off bro.

On the Corning website there is a whitepaper about the Gorilla Glass 3 coating. It was specifically designed to withstand wiping, 20,000 wipes so and that's with the worst case scenario "rubbing the screen on your clothes". It also recovers over 99% of the screen visibility in just a wipe or two.
It did also outline using different cleaning products and chemicals. All of them degraded the coating and were not recommended.

Do spigen clear screen protectors 10 bucks for a three pack and solved.

Mine wore off after 3 weeks. Not the entire screen though. More like two lines towards the bottom of the screen. Call Google Play to get it replaced. It really shouldn't happen within 3 weeks of use.

On my nexus 4 which I got last year at launch, the coating has worn off in two places, only noticed this the last month or so. Never used anything to clean it apart from a bit of spit and my tea shirt a few times.
1) Where I scroll web pages, lower rightish, about an inch or so long and a finger tip+ wide.
2) A very small patch right at the bottom in the middle, where I slide up for pie controls.
I hope the n5 has a more durable coating.

Yikes, Windex has ammonia. Very hard on this kind of stuff.
Guys, use a dry microfiber cloth. You can get it slightly damp with water to power through any dried on pieces of god-knows-what. Your coating should outlast the phone.

Microfiber is king. I never even have to wet it down.

Ok this is the first time I hear about the coating on Gorilla glass wearing off. This stuff is fused into the glass. I've used windex, alcohol and other chemicals on both my N4 and N5 and have never seen any wear marks of any kind.
How do you know you have a wear spot? Can anyone post a picture?

Corning recommends not using any chemicals. They degrade the coating somewhat as it was designed to make wiping marks and stains away easy with only cloth. 10 wipes a day should last 5 years or so.

OK, I can understand what the glass manufacturer recommends but I was asking for pictures. Had anyone had actually damaged it using cleaning fluids? Like I mentioned, I've used windex and alcohol on my N4 almost each day for the past year and the screen looks brand new each time I clean it.

I would not recommend Windex as it can actually undergo chemical reactions with coatings. Diluted alcohol-based lens cleaners should be safer.
I had my first N5 for a few weeks but it had 7 dead pixels, so I got an RMA swap. The first one I just threw in my pocket without any protection, and after two weeks I noticed in very bright direct light a few tiny surface scratches - presumably in the surface coating. Not as bad as what would happen on Galaxy Nexus but I didn't want it to get any worse. So now I'm using a screen protector.

That's surface scratches... totally different than some wear spots from some presumable coating coming off.
I'm sorry but I think your note about some chemical reaction with Windex is total BS. That's just from my experience actually using Windex on the surface.

I've used a damp microfiber cloth to wipe my screen. I felt that my finger didn't glide as smooth as before with my Nexus 4 before. But the coating on the nexus 5 is great, I never even had to wipe my screen yet because the coating is just that good.

Have it your way. Ammonia is a nucleophile. It can open up certain types of chemical bonds. Prolonged use with any sort of polymer such as a coating can cause permanent chemical changes.

I too have never hear of the coating coming off. I'm a paramedic and use some harsh cleaners on my phone and have never had a problem.

Edit: I realized this this discussion is more about the screen coating screen cracks, I have made a different post instead. I did not delete this post encase it is interesting as it is screen related, however if you feal it is to off topic I will delete it.
I have been lucky so far but my co-worker's phone died not even two weeks in. He said his kid had knocked a glass (cup/mug) over hitting the screen at an unusual angle.
The phone it self works grate but it must have caught the screen at the wrong angle for it to crack. I say this because I have dropped my Nexus 5 with some force and it has been fine so far. Also its not often I see a crack starting from the side (see pic) and not one of the corners.
The only place here in Edmonton, Alberta (Canada) that would repair it had a price that was ~50 shy of a brand new Nexus 5 (he has a 16gig).
Edit: The screen protector in the pic was not attached during the crack it is a iPhone4 protector added after the crack so that the phone can be used without bleeding fingers.

Hi
A bit of a thread bump, but this came up in my search... I had my Nexus 5 since launch day, but in the last few months I have noticed two rather large areas of the middle of the screen are always oily or "smudged".
If I clean the screen by carefully applying sellotape and then lifting, all oil and smudges are removed, but even after cleaning my hands and using the screen lightly in the same two areas there is always a permanent smudge, and in those areas it feels different, as if the coating is removed.
I have not used any screen protectors or cleaners and I take great care of my Nexus.
It is annoying with the glare.
I haven't had a phone do this before..
I have started a more recent thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2637312 but perhaps this thread will have subscribers viewing it.
