Hi everyone,
It does seem that the only way to get a glass screen protector right now is for the UV Light application, because of something with the glass and the fingerprint sensor. Dome Glass seems to be the only option right now, but they want $50.... does anyone know of any other UV options that don't cost $50?
Thanks!

I have my nexus 5 for about 3 months and i have very small scratch on my screen that only noticeable by light
sometimes when im outside and im with the phone its very annoying to see that scratch.
what can i do to remove it?
I would recommend to just put a screen protector on it that'll hide the scratch. I've bought the scratch remover and used it before on the screen and didn't have any luck getting rid of them. Spigen has an ultra crystal clear screen protector that feels nice and hides the light scratches.
Put a tempered glass
Buy a new screen costs 10$ and glue it on the lcd with loca glue

Hi.
I just ordered an "Tempered Glass Screen Protection" for my 10.5", my first glass screen protector, I had a look on you-tube for installation video`s most are really bad, no sign of the hinge method that i am going to use.
Anyway i watched a video of and Tempered Glass Screen Protector being installed on an ipad, and they fitted an home button height increaser, it this really necessary, the glass protector i ordered is 0.3mm thick, does anybody have any experience of this?
Also the fingerprint sensor might cause problems if something were to cover it anyway.
Thanks
John.
I purchased the Skinomi version and don't have any problems using the fingerprint sensor on my device. I will be honest though and let you know that I did not install it. I took it to a nearby shop and they installed it for me.
I only paid a £5 for my off-brand version, not the £18+ that Skinomi ones go for.
So the thickness does not cause any problems with the home button, good to know.
Thanks.
John.

Yup so far so good for me
I suppose a slightly recessed home button could be a good thing for people who dont have a case and leave the tablet with the display facing down to reduce chance of the display being damaged, a slightly recessed home button reduces the change of it press accidentally, so your tablet will stays in deep sleep mode, and not keep waking up.

I got my screen protector this morning, I installed it in a steamy bathroom, and use the included wet and dry cloths, and used the hinge method to install it, but i was left with 2 big bubbles with a piece of dirt in the center of each one, so i tried to lift the edge and remove the dirt with an piece of sticky tape, but the screen protector split all the way to the center.
I have contacted the seller and explained as i have to you, and he says he thinks the problem is an manufacturing defect, and is going to send me another one.

i find the included alcohol swab attracts dust particles, so I wipe the screen with a wet paper towel after I use the alcohol swab.
putting screen protectors on in the cold works a treat as there isn't loads of dust floating around. I put my last one on in the car with the air con on
Have one for my S5 and will buy one for the tab s soon.
Love, fingerprint sensor still works fine @ .33mm thick protector
Will you be using any screen protectors? I got 2 for free so will try it, will be tricky with air bubbles and dust.

The Mi4C uses Concore glass which is a product of Gorilla Glass but has the LCD and Digitizer fused together. That means if the glass even slightly cracks you'll have to replace the entire LCD/Digitizer assembly. Even though the Mi4C has a good repairability score, it might be difficult or expensive to get parts as this a phone for the Chinese market only. Using some form of screen protection is essential.
PS: Just google a few guides on how to apply a screen protector properly, I've done so many times without any dust or bubbles creeping in.

Thanks, I'll definitely use one
Make sure to get the tempered glass variety, as the plastic-based ones are often grippy (making swipes more difficult as your finger kind of sticks to the screen) and more reflective (more difficult to see in the sun), as well as less transparent (screen seems dimmer, and sometimes has artifacts). Tempered glass screen protectors are more expensive than the plastic-based ones and sell for about $5. That said, I've seen suppliers offering the display now, they sell for about $60.

Ye I have a tempered glass one, always used a plastic on my old phones, which is much slimmer but as you say, you can feel the difference :good:
I hear the standard mi4c screen doesnt have such a great olephobic coating, so its a fingerprint magnet. can anyone confirm or deny this statement? sounds like the best screen protector is a tempered glass with good olephobic coating. can anyone recommend a good one?
I applied the standard screen protector that came for free and have one bubble but its on the bezel so I can live with that. Only problem is it attracts a lot of fingerprints

Yep, I confirm. No or poor oleophobic coating, it is a real fingerprint magnet
I don't use a screen protector, not even the free platic one that came with the phone... just don't like them.

Nillkin have a tempered glass screen protector for the Mi4i/4c, called NILLKIN Amazing H. I've heard they're one of the better ones, since Nillkin is also a big brand when it comes to cases and screen protectors.
You can find it on AliExpress for 7-10 dollar. It's probably available at other places as well.
I see nillkin also has an Amazing H+ version.. www.nillkin.com/english/proshow.asp?mid=2&sid=0&tid=0&cid=1&scid=&id=5584&page=1

Just comparing the product pages, The H is 0.33m and H+ is 0.3mm. H+ looks to have 2.5D edging craft, whatever that is.
I only use nillkin for all my phones. They fit great and applying them is very easy, because they pack a lot of extras in the box (like wet and dry wipes to clean your screen, tape to remove dust particles, microfibre cloth...). I always need just about 2 minutes to apply them without any bubbles or dust. If there is a dust particle left after applying, just lift the screen protector carefully and use the tape to remove the dust
i found that Edge Control goes crazy when the phone is connected to the PSU and charging. After some minutes of using the Edge controls suddenly do the "back" function all over again. This happens when i just hold the phone in the left hand (not tapping with the fingers - just holding it on both sides in one hand). Can you confirm this? I am using latest sMIUI 5.11.5 (clean installed). If i unplug the typ c connector - all goes back to normal within one minute.
Hi Guys i want to buy a screenprotector. But i dont know if it will work with the fingerprint scanner.
I want a skin on the back top but cant find nowhere to buy it
I think a screen protector should not be a problem because the fingerprint sensor works with a camera. Thats why the display around it gets brighter if you try to unlock.
For the back I found some cases on aliexpress but no skin yet. I asked skinzone from Czech but they say the phone is not officially released there so they can't get the cutting guide for our device.

Sorry thought i ordered it on Aliexpress.
Well. I used some temper glasses from Gor, Nilkin and Imak and all of them was great. The fingerprint scanner works flawlessly. It may be not as sensitive as without temper glass but still good enough and even better than some fingerprint sensor from iPhone and Samsung. Moreover, U still can use fingerprint scanner with wet hand - something u can't with older fingerprint sensor model
Im recommend this and already i use this tempered

Does anyone have suggestions for how to remove micro searches from the screen? I've heard mixed things about using toothpaste and am wondering if anyone one else has had experience in this area

DONT use tooth paste. It's just jerks lying for YouTube hits. You may being noticing just scratches on the oleophopic coating. You can't fix that. If you can feel the scratches with your nail the you can polish them out but you will remove more oleophobic Coating. My advice put a screen protector on and forget about it or ask OnePlus to replace screen if you want perfection .
Just apply a uv tempered glass and leave it that way.

As advised above, LOCA (Liquid optically clear adhesive) is apparently good for hiding micro-scratches so applying a UV Glue screen protector will probably help and avoid future damage. The Whitestone Dome protector would most likely be the best candidate although it is pricey but has tons of good reviews.

I agree. Apply one of those uv svreen protectors and the glue will fill those scratches and make them invisible, and also those screen protectors look the best.
I picked up one of these and couldn't be happier WELL worth the $$
