My Mi 5 got squashed between my bed and the wall. No exterior damage except for a crack in my glass screen protector but my screen now has blue clouding in the location where it contacted the wall. Does this go away with time? Is it just a temporary pressure point? Only shows up on black screens. Also the screen protector crack is in a different location to the clouding.

Hey guys, I installed the skinomi skin a couple minutes ago. I think the screen might not have been wet enough when I applied it. Will these go away on their own? Do I need to throw it away? Can I remove it and try again? See the full sized picture below.

they do usually permeate through the glass and plastic protector itself, but it will take a few days to completely go away
I'm worried that only the small ones will go away. Will the larger ones disappear too?
only time will tell bro, Patience is a virtue. Give it a week or so.

how long has that protector been on there? and which protector is it?
those bubbles seem a tad large and i'm not feeling too confident about them going away. normal "raindbow reflecting shiny" bubbles are normal if you applied using a soap solution... but those seem too abundant to have resulted from that type of application. did you use a credit card to push them out?
if it hasnt been on that long, take it off and retry.
I've put on these crappy "invisible-shield" wet apply screen protectors before and never had that many bubbles. You should redo it and try to get it a bit better.

Actually you shouldn't "wet" the screen, just wet the skin (or dip the whole skin in the solution and let the excess water drips out before applying it)
However, if you're certain that the bubbles weren't caused by dust under the skin, then they should disappear within a week.
My wife got me a non glass screen protector. The guy who installed it gave it to her for free because there were about 50 bubbles on the screen. I powered off and powered on, and each bubble had a rainbow swirl which indicates that the bubbles have liquid underneath them.
I left it on the dash in the hot sun for an hour, and I hit it with a hair dryer for about a minute a few times. Didn't need to do that.
The bubbles are disappearing and I only have 2 left. As long as it's not air or dirt,water bubbles are fairly normal and if you leave the phone be for a day or 3, the bubbles will dry up and disappear on their own.
I think that many people who buy non glass screen protectors expect the screen protector to be 100 percent bubble free. If you have bubbles that look rainbow on a white background screen, leave them alone and they'll dry up.
I don't know why or how trapped moisture dries, but it does. Air bubbles must be popped and debris bubbkes are obvious.
My new screen protector looked a lot like the OP with smaller bubbles but now, AFTER HAVING LET IT SIT FOR ABOUT 5 OR 6 HOURS, I only have 2 bubbles that are shrinking. If you have a bunch of small bubbles, pull up Google. White background page. If all the bubbles have rainbow swirls, that's moisture AND THEY WILL GO AWAY ON THEIR OWN.
I'm only capping those parts because that seems to be the correct answer regarding bubbles. Rainbow means liquid. Liquid goes away on its own, especially if left in the sun on the dash for a bit.
Air pockets are clear. Very carefully pop them with a small needle or pin.
Debris is visible. That requires some removing and cleaning. Or a new protector altogether but you can buy 3 on amazon for 7 bucks.
Rainbow swirls- just let it dry by leaving it alone. It's a lot like window tint and vinyl car wraps. Small moisture bubbles are common and go away on their own.
Before people go tearing off screen covers and trying to reapply their bent out and fingerprinted soft screen protectors, try leaving the pen head sized and smaller bubbles alone and they'll go away AS LONG AS IT'S A MOISTURE BUBBLE.
I'll be perfectly honest- tempered glass screen protectors on the s7 edge are very finicky and unresponsive especially if you have a tight fitting case.
I much prefer a few moisture bubbles that will go away than I prefer an extra layer of glass that is very unresponsive and on any edge phone, tempered glass makes it hard to get feeds and pulling down the notification bar is as bad as setting up a fingerprint. Non responsive. Soft screen protectors might scuff and scratch, but they work and you don't lose response like you will with a tempered glass screen protector. But on these new phones that are wrapped in glass, I'd suggest a case to go with the protector. I've seen people drop their phones with no cases with screen protectors, and the screen is fine- the back of the phone is shattered.
I hope this helps anyone who may have had questions about screen protectors. Tempered glass is better on flat screen phones bit you lose response if you don't have a glove touch option for the screen.

Not trying to be arrogant or pompous, these observations are based on what I've seen, what I've read, and what I avoided tinting windows. I figured I'd just cover all the bases.
Does anyone else notice this on their Axon?
It's not very dramatic but it is bothersome and the only flaw that I seem to have on the device
No yellow on my screen at all. Could it be a screen protector you applied or is your screen without one?

No protector here. It's not a drastic issue but it is noticeable. I'm assuming the backlight is in the bottom and that's what's causing the discrepancy
screen protectors yes/no anyone tried them I ordered the glass ones off amazon see how the fit and work.
I bought a supershieldz tempered glass one off of EBay for $5.99. Fits nice and looks good.
http://m.ebay.com/itm/Supershieldz-...ver-For-ZTE-Axon-Pro-/201394712114?nav=SEARCH
Notice the same screen appear slightly yellowish (specially on white) towards the bottom.
Oh no.... this is the reason why I sold OnePlus One which had exactly same problem.... will see if my Axon will get the yellow bottom when I get it
Wow, lots of folks posted about the soft screen which resulted in a screen protector being applied, however now the talk is about screen peeling. I hear the fix is Moto charges 50 bucks and adds another screen or screen protector. Not sure whats going on so about you folks........any screen peeling problems/solutions. This could be a major FAIL again on this flag ship!
No issues here.

I don't have a problem with it and my screen has been abused already although if your having that issue then you may have done something to it on accident I don't believe it's the phone
yes the screen is VERY soft. small nick-nack scratches on mine. The glass protectors don't really fit, and because of the plastic cover motorola installed, its makes the touches very inaccurate when a tempered glass protector is installed.
next version, I hope they just go flat glass and leave the so called shatterproof technology alone
No issues at all. Screen protector fit perfectly from day one and it applied fast.
Removed Plastic coating
My screen was scratched pretty bad so I removed the plastic screen. I used a heat gun and digital thermometer and did the same steps as you would replacing the digitizer. You can heat the screen up to 180 to 200 degrees without damaging the board,screen, or and digitizer. It can go higher but don't push it this the only fragile part of the phone I found so far but it is. I used a razor blade after heating the screen up and at the corner carefully to start peeling the coating and once you get started a little at the corner start using the cards Don't pull on the plastic when the glue soften because you will be pulling the screen the rest of the plastic is still stuck to use playing cards to get between the lcd and the plastic coating which is basically a factory installed screen protector with a lot of sticky glue. Don't force the card push as far as you can with light pressure when it won't progress any further stop and heat the screen up again grab another playing card and continue to use cards to take that plastic coating off. And you want to leave the cards as you go. When done you are going to have to clean the residue off it will take a little time but when your done put on a high end protector like I used the Za??. My screen works perfectly to the touch and those scratches are not there except one and is was the san andreas fault of scratches before I took the coating off..
I removed mine also. Although I used a less technical method. I just pulled the top layer off and then spent some time scratching at the screen with my fingernail and using alcohol to help with the glue. Took a while for sure. I heard Goo Gone works great for me this.
I got my Z2 Force shortly after the launch date last year, and I have had zero issues with it. It's obvious that the shattershield screen is easily scratched, so I put a screen protector on it right away and it remains scratch free to this day. There's a lot of bad screen protectors out there these days that are warped and won't stay adhered to the screen, so it's important to look at those reviews to make sure you get a good one. I should also note that I constantly flip my phone around in my hand for some reason and I end up dropping it all the time, and I still have had no issues at all. There's not a sign of peeling anywhere.
Hi !
Has anyone here bought the Auckly screen protector for oneplus 5T ?
I'm considering buying it, but I haven't seen any review of it yet.
Is it compatible with the case included in the OP5T box ?
Thanks
according to a comment on amazon it sticks only on the black edges and not in the center. which makes the touch does not respond very well
I ordered orzly pro will get it tomorrow I'll post my review once I install it
thanks a lot
I have got an Auckly fitted and yes it only sticks to the edges but I have noticed no difference at all to screen sensitivity. With the screen off in some types of light there is a slight oil-slick stripe down the middle but as I say this is only in some types of artificial light and it is not visible with the screen on. Similarly there is a light dot matrix effect but this isn't visible with the screen on either.
I have the auckly TGSP installed on my OP5T, but I see the dot pattern and the oil slick stripe even when the screen is on. How could I prevent this ?

With these kinds of protectors (without glue in the middle) you simply can't
The last one I tried left a small border on the outside of the circle.
