Hi All,
My preferred phone protection is to have a tempered glass screen protector and silicone case. Saved my old phone from bad damage a couple times while bouncing on the street.
Now... the challenge I have with the P9000 is that the silicone case that came with the phone doesn't go 'over' the edges of the tempered glass protector and pushes it off.
rather annoying!
Ordered some other silicone cases on Aliexpress but the same problem.
Anybody found a nice case that does the trick? Tried 'heat stretching' the case a bit for a better fit but no luck so far.
thanks!

yup same problem. i cut the case a bit and now it dont look nice . but it works.
Hi.
My problem was that one corner of the glass doesn't stick to the LCD. After I applied the silikoncase it fits.
I have the case that come with the phone.
I stretched it a little bit over the corners of the phones without heat.

Had the same issue what you need to do is force phone by slotting it into case then pull the lip over the screen protector. Do this to all corners and you'll have no issues.

Congrats on having it fixed without any drastic measures! I went the 'cutting route' for now since I had to replace the screen protector and didn't want to risk another one.
But I've got another set of silicone cases coming from aliexpress to check if they are a bit better!
I've got 2 P9000's (one for me one for my girlfriend) so actually I already wrecked 2 screen protectors.
Same problem here. Original case and aliexpress case. No luck.
i bought the official flip case and tempered glass.
tried the case first which fit but found the buttons a bit hard to press.
if you fold the case front behind the phone the camera is blocked also.
could view the on screen clock and notifications through the case screen window.
once applied the tempered glass the phone wouldn't recognize the flip case, so when i closed it over the screen remained on and the case window became useless.
this company do nothing right do they.
Had to struggle the same problem, but now i could fix it.
Just make sure the glass is positioned in centre on the screen. When putting on the case, make sure the case slips properly over the first 3 corners. For the last one, you can use any tool (i a used knife, but be careful ) to overlap the edge of the silicon case with the tempered glass.
No matter what I did, it wouldn't do it without lifting the glass

I have the same issue (sometimes) with matte film protectors and the standard case.
Always on the top right corner for me - where I've got fractionally less unprotected screen , so maybe very precise alignment of the screen protector would help you?
Pulling the case over the edge of the screen with my fingernails was enough for me
Cut the flip in the flip-case.

Cut the flip in the flip-case. Just kepping the hard back. This way you can use the glass and have back protection. I did this and works fine.
I use this glass protector - http://www.ebay.com/itm/282044598237?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
there is a space between the silicon case and the glass so they don't touch each other

The hard back in the flip case is useless. Too fragile, corners and button covers break easily, my P9000 fell just once not too hard and the screen left upper corner broke. Silicone cover is better protection
u can use scotch tape on the bottom corners of the glass to stop it from lifting, funny idea but works, if u want to save a new case cost.
Running the built in screen protector isn't possible. Too many issues with touch sensitivity. I did pop out the built in screen protector and applied my own. The problem is this causes a miss alignment with the power and volume buttons. So I'm assuming the thick but in protector helps line the phone up with the buttons. Is there something I can use, thin strip of foam, to help "push" into the case? Very frustrating, I really like this case over the commuter.

I did find a way, kind of. I hastily did this. I took some thin foam and lined the case where the screen protector was attached. That actually help line up the buttons pretty good. I have to go through and do a better job. I have the Beetle case, juts like the full rubber outside for grip.
What glass screen protector did you go with? I used to own an S7 about a year ago and ditched the glass screen protectors because they were terrible.

Surprisingly responsive of the edges and now looking at it, there is a little color distortion from the glass on o e of the corners ( most likely due to me having a good S7 Edge.) Other than that, no issues.

I've not found a "perfect" screen cover yet for the phone. I like the 2.5d screen but it makes finding a "perfect" tempered glass solution a problem. I have a full screen protector one on now and it's okay. I haven't found one of those that have adhesive on the entire back panel of the glass. The adhesive is only around the edges on the painted surfaces.
I have another one I haven't tried yet. It looks like it has adhesive on the entire back surface and the outer edges are made of carbon fiber (supposed to be anyway) The outer edges are at least a soft material that supposed to stick to the entire edge and curve around so that it fits a 2.5d screen better. The problem with the ones I bought is that you can't see the backlight from the buttons on the bottom of the phone. Not a deal breaker but a flaw in the design.
Do some searches on aliexpress or someplace and you'll see. Search for redmi note 4x carbon fiber to see the second one I mentioned and redmi note 4x tempered glass for the full screen ones I also mentioned. There are clear non full screen ones that don't go to the edges of the glass. I haven't purchased one of those and probably won't.
It's really hard to find something decent. I personally prefer the traditional tempered glass screen protectors, but I've tried three now and they all look terrible, huge white marks on the sides even though the tempered glass doesn't cover the full screen. The full coverage one lost its adhesive due to my case pushing up against it, and it looks awful with weird adhesive marks in the middle. Honestly I'm contemplating going back to a film screen protector because I just can't find a tempered glass screen protector that will work for me. Also worth noting that I have a friend with a White Redmi Note 4x and I was able to transplant my screen protector onto this device with zero issues, so it's as if the black variant has glass that is more curved than normal

I applied my tempered glass with my case on the phone. It's one of the full screen protectors with the painted frame around the outside. I think they do that to hide the fact that the glass doesn't fit to the curve. It looks good but I know it's not a perfect fit.
Upon research there appears to be fluid you can apply to the edges to get a perfect seal to remove the halo effect... I will investigate further
With my new case I posted about the full screen tempered glass looks perfect except for the fact they don't put adhesive on the entire back panel. Just under the painted area.

Yes... in my experience this doesn't last. I had two lift up and get dust underneath and then it was horrible after that. Also I got the weird rainbow effect in the middle of the glass and the keys at the bottom didn't line up exactly.

As no hard material can cover a curved glass manufacturers need to make a hybrid glass. What I have done is bought a edge to edge glass from glazedinc.com and a tpu case from local market, edge to edge glass protects my display from scratches without compromising the looks and tpu case protects my device from falls. It's the nearest to perfect solution one can do for the note 4

Good to hear I too bought the edge to edge tempered glass which is still flimsy but still can protect the screen without compromising the looks however I'm looking forward to purchase hard kickstand case which can protect the device when it falls. Kindly give me the link of that TPU case you bought and please tell me if it is hard enough to protect the phone. Thanks in advance.

I got a zagg one from best buy. Expensive but zero problems since it's been on. The very edges have adhesive that is visible on the curved sides making a slight line. Not a deal breaker but it is there. No halo effect like I had on the note 5 protectors either. Expensive but I'm very happy so far.

Do you have a picture with the case on? I have the defender also and looking for a tempered glass
The problem you will find with most glass protectors is they typically only have adhesive around the edges. This means there is a gap between the protector and the screen and this decreases sensitivity. I'd look for a new case that works with Dome Glass. Cases are a dime a dozen but glass protectors with full adhesive are very limited. I typically buy UAG cases but only the Monarch UAG works with the Dome Glass. There are 3 YouTube videos that go through compatible cases for Dome Glass.

Otterbox has the Alpha Glass out already.. Was going to get a defender + alpha glass if I didnt already have a UAG plasma
Dont waste your money
ALPHA GLASS FOR NOTE 8 This is the WORST designed screen protector. It causes a major loss in screen sensitivity, to the point of having to tap screen several times, and press down with a good deal of pressure to get the screen to respond. There is a large gap at both top and bottom of screen. Adhesive is CLEARLY visable on all borders of the protector. I am extremely disappointed in the design of this! I have used alpha glass protectors before on my Samsung galaxy s8+ and was looking forward to the release of this one. I will be telling everyone i know to steer clear of this product! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY~ YOU MIGHT AS WELL FLUSH IT DOWN THE TOILET~ I am a faithful customer of Otterbox, I love their cases, but this screen protector does not live to otterbox brand. I will stay a customer with their cases, but I will NEVER again purchase an alpha glass!
Otterbox defender & whitestone dome match made in heaven
So I just finished installing my whitestone dome glass protector, what a great system, 1st one failed cos of my error but second time worked sweet as. All cured and sitting pretty, absolutely no touch screen lag very responsive and very nice to use, wouldn't even know there was anything on the screen.
My case of choice is the otter box defender, I'm hard on my phones and with the note 8 almost costing a mortgage deposit, I want it well protected. Both the whitestone and the defender case appears to be made for each other, the edge of the protector sits almost flush with the top part of the case = perfect fit. No lifting no nothing. It's amazing to say the least..
The corners are actually protected by the corners of the case and it's like the case holds the glass even more secure, again no lifting or anything.
Hope this helps some of you out. I'm happy to supply pictures if any of you guys need.
Happy protecting everyone..

Could you keep us updated on your experience with this? A lot of other people have concluded that if the case is in contact with the screen protector, it will start lifting at some point.
I was using tempered glass screen guard on my Note 8. However I dropped the phone twice from a height of about 2/2.5 feet and the screen guard cracked. I am now using Samsung original clear view case for Note 8. Should I use glass screen guard with the clear view case?

The screen protector is supposed to crack so your phone screen doesn't. My advise, if you like your note 8 put a screen on it! ?
Cut out your defender inner plastic
I've already wasted one expensive tempered glass (Araree tempered glass made in Korea, $29.99 + $8 international shipping to US).
When I used this expensive protector, there was some portion overlapped with Depender's inner plastic. Actually it made the tempered glass broken in the edge side.
So, what you can do is, using the sharp nife cut out Defender's plastic edge side where it contacts with glass screen protector. If you do this carefully, it won't look ugly. Or you can use the sand paper to remove some edge portion of plastic.
This Araree tempered glass (full cover) works great with Spigen neo hyprid case. No lift nor sensitivity loss.
I also found that Otterbox defender case works with Sammy's faster charger if we put the phone in the exact middle of the charger and with the charger plate is in plat position. But if we try to charge the phone with the charge plate is in vertical position, there was no way to charge the phone...
Wish I could have read this before I tried the UAG Prism case with the Best Buy installed Zagg glass protector. Cracked the upper left edge of the protector. I have an Otterbox Defender on and it's good. Unfortunately, right from the initial screen protector install, there was separation and touch sensitivity issues. Heading to Best Buy to have them put on another screen protector.

What screen protector will work with the otterbox defender for the Note 8?
From the reviews on Amazon it appears the Spigen ruggard armor lifts the pre applied screen protector?
You need a flat 2D one. The only one I've found out of the five I've tried so far that actually sticks everywhere is the Nillkin brand.
Amazon Link, OnePlus 5T Tempered Glass Screen Protector, Nillkin Anti-fingerprints Super Clear 0.33mm Ultra Thin 9H Screen Hardness Screen Protector for OnePlus 5T (2017)
It was the most expensive one I ordered, but it actually stuck around all the edges.

I saw a video on YouTube where a guy dipped an earbud in olive oil and dabbed it on the edges , somehow the halo effect disappeared , so you may try that .
Skinomi plastic film screen protector was a fail with this case. It was a huge pain to get on, needed to use a hair dryer to get the sides to stick. The next morning I put the case on and immediately the sides bubbled up and would not stay down. Anyone find a plastic one that works with the rugged armor case?

never buy that ****. its the worst thing. dont ask why its just way to ****ed up to explain.
You're going to have problems with anything that goes all the way to the edges, that case overlaps. Anything the case touches will eventually have problems.
If you want a 3D style screen protector that covers the entire screen, you are going to be stuck with the factory one plus cases. If you want Spigen case and a screen protector that sticks for any length of time, you will have that small gap all the way around between the case and the screen protector.
As I already mentioned the only 2D screen protector, I've found that stuck all the way around (IE no "halo effect") was the Nillkin brand.
If you find something that actually works, let us know. I ordered two of the Spigen cases, I've thought about taking the second one and carefully cutting it back some so it would clear a 3D screen protector. I'm just not sure if it would stay on that well after that.
M8, pick up the Nillkin TG, H+ Pro. Its really good and im a person who likes when things are esthetic. It doesn't cover whole screen though.
