Best way to remove screen protector...

good point, but it would make more sense to me to use the freebie till you couldn't anymore, and THEN put the $$ one on. Oh well. Scotch tape would probably work the best.
 
Hi all,
Thanks for the suggestions.

Actually the reason I am going to remove the screen protector is because I noticed there is a tiny dust caught right in the middle of the screen and it is kind of annoying specially when watching videos.

By the way, if ever I remove the freebie screen protector can I just clean it up and reapply it or just use a new sheet of martin fields protector?
 
Use a toothpick. That is what used before...even on the N95....the round kind...not the flat variety as those are too weak.
 
I don't think taking off the screen protector is going to help you. If you see dust in the screen, it's much more likely the dust is under the screen itself, rather than it somehow finding a way to wedge itself between the thin bond between the screen and the screen protector.

As people were complaining about the light leakage out of the sides of the N95 housing, it seems that's not all those loose pieces of housing are doing. Mine is starting to get dust under the screen like crazy. I can count 6 viewable pieces right now and it seems it's only going to get worse. I'd tighten the screws or try to clean in out, but doing so in the past has only caused more problems.
 
tightening the screws arent gonna do much jonnybruha. its as tight as they can go and any tighter and you'll damage the LCD. also, there is no real lcd cover on the n95...what you see is what you get bascially...theres no protective lens covering the lcds like most phones, the lcd on the n95 is directly exposed, which is why im thinking nokia provided us with a screen protector. since this is the case, dust cant get under the screen...what he meant is theres dust UNDER the screen protector because when he put it on most likely some pieces of dust were still on the screen or already stuck to the protector.
 
I was not provided with a screen protector in my N95 box. I bought mine from the Nokia store in Chicago and there is definitely a plastic covering over the screen. Not to get into a Finland vs Nokia war, but I believe that's one of the variations in the build.
 
The OP also said he's talking about the screen protector that came on the phone. If there's dust caught between the screen protector and the screen, you don't see just dust, you see a bubble with dust inside.

Yup... Just to clarify the dust is under the screen protector and NOT under the lcd. Got this tiny bubble then the dust is at the middle.
 
well what i meant was theres no space between the lcd and the protective covering like most phones...for example on my old k750 there was a good 1/4cm of space between the lcd and the protective lens. on the n95 theres just a piece of plastic over the lcd.
 
Ok just an update, Good news and bad news.
Good news is I have managed to remove the screen protector using a plastic straw.

Bad news is the screen protector is a goner. Time for a new one.
 
I can't comment on the N95, but my wife and I both have the E65, hers with the original screen protector and mine with an aftermarket version (sorry, I forget which brand).

Using identical theme and display settings, with the handsets side-by-side, my screen is much brighter, while my wife's screen has a green tinge.

YMMV.
 
Well why didn't you say that the first time?

I know exactly what you're talking about. My 6630 had that same amount of space as well. At the very least, it looks like the shape of the N95 is a bit better than the N73 in that it doesn't feel like it's going to get caught against your leg and cause the screen to crack. There are a bunch of threads floating around from people who cracked their LCD's on their N73's because of the lack of space between the LCD and the plastic covering and the tall shape of the ohone.
 
Mine's made in Finland and it has the plastic. It did not come with a screen protector, but it does have plastic as part of the housing covering the LCD.
