Use some kind of sticky tape. Stick it on near a corner and useit to lift the protector.
Great idea. Thanks.
can you aply the screen protector that came with the HD more then once?
I think you probably could, but would need some an alchohol solution of some sort to reapply.
Personally i have a insivible shield by zagg which protects the whole phone for about £15.
I would suggest trying harder with fingernails, the protector is thicker than you think and i got mine off with a bit of a fight

Personally I thought the zagg one was rubbish. It was very difficult to get it to cover the screen properly and the surrounding chrome bits with one single piece of plastic. I just bought the Clarivue anti-glare screen protector. I'll report on it when it arrives

Yes you can reuse them. Just gently wash the protector with hand soap and water (try not to bend it, keep it flat in your hand) and shake the excess water off and reapply.
A word of caution for those removing the screen protector using sticky tape.. I did that and got the top coating layer peeled off. Cry man...
Word of warning. Do not use WD40!!!

A member had previously posted that he used WD40
His name was arsenalfc who then got banned and returned under a new name deanoyouno. He got banned again after I reported him for posting useless & damaging threads and subsequently all posts/threads by him were removed.....so there was a post orignially before my post which has now been removed.
I have the Invisible Shield fitted to mine , very nice and turns the rear of the phone Glossy Black, installing is fiddly but just be Patient, I had a few Bubbles in mine on the edges of the screen where there is a slight lip but after about a week its dried out and pretty perfect, I would recommend this shield to anyone who wants alot of protection, There are installation video's on the Zagg site which I would recommend watching First as the Palming tecnique on the corners is a must.
Hope this Helps
do they ship to Uk? or can u buy this shield in Uk? not a copy, but the official one, as looks impressive
Yesterday I started thread about if it is possible to scratch the display with the stylus..because i draw on my unit and I love it
And I was little worried that it may happen..people said that it not very likely to scratch but I may happen if some dust comes under the stylus tip or etc...
So I said OK I am cool...didn't apply it because it was too late and went to sleep...but I took my device to play a little more with it and what have I found?? SCRATCH!!! OMG...luckily just a little one but he is there, 455hole..
So today i wanted to apply the screen protector, first time in my life, it was pain the 455, I still couldnt get the bubbles out and blah blah..the nI touched the adhesive side and it got so dirty and ow damn
But as jdlorinser says, I hope it can be cleaned and reapplied...dont want to throw out just like that...
so this is my story
tip..
go to the bathroom,to put on the screen protector..WHY? because it's the most dust free aria in the house.
Don't use the protector that came with the hd,but buy a better one.
I use brando protector...This one is ant scratch,removable and washable...
just a tip.

Hi!
Yesterday I sent my X2 to service*, so I have probably a month or so to look for a screen protector - or do I need one? X2 is not equipped with one, so maybe S-E thinks the screen is good enough without it?
Probably not, so I'd like if you could recommend me a screen protector, maybe two - glossy and matte.
I don't care about its scratch resistance, I just want it to be as thin as possible so it does not interfere with the touch detection much.
Does anyone actually notice any difference between "expensive" and "cheap eBay" screen protectors?
Thanks!
*I know this sentence is not right, what term should I use?
Nobody using a screen protector for their X2?
im sure there was a thread about this somewhere else. but anyway, check out durasec hightec. i had their screen protector on my X1 for a year. its a special self healing plastic. small cuts and scratches just dissappear! highly recommended. they have their own website and are also on ebay. i think it comes from germany. costs around £9.
this is there ebay website. you dont want the cleartec ones, theyre just regular plastic.. its the HIGHTEC single protector.
http://shop.ebay.co.uk/falcixx/m.html?_nkw=x2&_sacat=0&_trksid=m270&_odkw=&_osacat=0&bkBtn=
they also have a regular website
http://www.durasec.com/
http://www.durasec.com/catalog/sony....html?osCsid=592e310bd0d500a9143cc56d6a853790
i really wouldnt bother with the cheapo ones. i had three with the X2 when i got it and they only last a week or so and get scratched very easily. the durasec will last as long as you have the phone. its quite thick but doesnt affect the touchscreen response at all.

I bought one for the i-Phone (price 2$ ) because in Lebanon we don't have accessories for SE so I cut it in order to become the size of the X2, touch so well and protect the screen from the wounds
The best solution for screen protect is Brando protector. I bought one and can´t belive that is so briliant! Best protector ever!
Here it is: http://mobile.brando.com/bw-ultraclear-smart-phone-s-p-sony-ericsson-xperia-x2-_p05064c0864d008.html
Thanks for your replies!
Well, yesterday I ordered some cheap protectors from eBay, both glossy and matte. I went after the lowest price, because I so far have not found any comparison or reliable testing which would prove these expensive "brand" protectors to be better. It is just a piece of plastic anyway, isn't it?
Anyone know if it possible to buy a replacement glass (only the glass)?
I wish to remove the screen protector, but if it get scratches it would be nice if I can buy a new glass and replace it myself.
If there's anyone selling that, the place to look for is ebay.
Why remove it? I tried the phone (did not get mine yet) in different stores and the screen could'nt be more responsive imo. with the pre-applied protector in one store and the bubbly protective film+pre-applied screen protector in the other and there was no problem even with all that applied.. so i dont see the point in risking your glass.. just my point of view.
cheers

If you try the htc desire, you will see what I am talking about.
The mineral glass on x10 feels like cheap plastic with the protector on.
Just my opinion
The feelings

after getting my own X10 now i can agree the screen feels a bit sticky if you have a bit damp fingertips. when fingers a freshly washed with soap and dry i have no problem with it
scratch your screen on a rock if you're a real man

Real man
Yesterday I have scratched my screen on a rock, so I am a real man.... a crying stupid man.
Anyone have a idea how to replace it?
Is it possible to find and replace only the external glass? The touch digitizer works perfectly.
I thought the x10 screen is meant to b scratch resistance!? I've got little scratches all over mine! :0(
Think due to keys and coins in my pocket! :0s forget sometimes

Guys... did your x10 came with a prea-applied screen protector? Mine came with a prea applied screen protector but i can't seem to remove it. I'll post some pictures.
The screen protector is really hard to get going but once you got a corner it's easy to pull off.
Got no protector on my screen, no scratches at all and screen is much more responsive.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Why on Earth would anyone want to remove it? I've got the one that came with it and stuck another on that I got free with a case, and not lost any responsiveness at all, and as this phone cost me a few hundred pounds, the last thing I would want to do is lessen the protection of the screen.
the glass is the actual digitizer which is glued to the fascia of the phone, i cracked the glass on my phone and repaired it myself, digitizers are available from ebay for around £50 coming from honk kong. The quality of the digitizer is very good btw.
IMO the screen with the protector on was way less responsive, I don't understand why you need one, I've owned 2 iphones before this phone and used with no protectors, not had a single scratch on any, including my x10. Each to there own, but I just prefer to have no protectors on my phones.
I also don't use any cases either!

The OP is on about removing it, leaving it off, then forking out for a new screen if and when it inevitably gets scratched.
You guys just made my day! I had a big F*ing scratch at the center of my screen. Just found out I had a screenprotector! YEEY! its off now..
Need to get a new one!
Double posted?! WEIRD!
Has anyone found one?
I'd like to know how to get hold of a black screen so i can put it on my white x10.
Reduce the grubby look and give it a meaner look.
Ok, does this phone have screen protector that is glued on the display or it is just a display with nothing on it ? I have few little scratches so I was wondering can I polish it somehow ?
Tnx
The phone comes with a screen protector already applied. Look at the edges of the screen, you'll be able to see the difference between the screen itself and the protector.
Hi guys, been reading for the past few months here...I am getting this phone in about 1 or 2 weeks, and I read it has a scratch resistant screen...but this thread states that it actually is a screen protector. Can someone explain a bit more about this?
I also have some scratches on the protector. They can be polished out temporarely and completely with LCD-Liquid but next day they are visible again.
As the protector fits very well:
Anyone got an Idea how to polish away fine scratches permanently from protectors ?
THX
it has a screen protector on it but also a scratch resistant screen but i've managed to put some small scratches but nothing too bad.
i took the screen protector off, a mistake on my part but oh well.

Mineral glass. Not quite crystal. But tougher than normal glass. Took mine off too. It definitely makes the screen a little more responsive. I personally recommend removing it, but I'm not going to be responsible for yourscratches!

Did you try "Displex"?
No, I didn't, thx for the Info.
If it's that in a Shop I'd get it and give it a try. The protector fits so exactly on the glass that I would keem it as long as possible.
Tnx a lot guys, now I am much more happier knowing that it is only protector scratch, I can see it on the edges. Is there any screen protectors that good on ebay so I can replace this one ? I have bought some but they are not perfect size like this original one.

I removed my screen protector today since I dropped it on sharp pebbles with the screen first, lol. Anyways, Sony Ericsson says that it should be avoided at all costs. Removing the pre-fitted protector that is. Well, I hope I don't have to regret removing it!

One thing you can try is going around the edges with a razorblade. I haven't done it on the X10 but I've done it on oither phones where it's worked well.
Well i had a screen protector in my hd2 since first day, but i read some and found that it is scratchness, so i took off the screen protector and the difference is big o.o the colors and brightness of the screen are so beautiful compared with screen protector (L)
so can someone confirm me that is it truly anti-scratches? or it is just false?
i have a nice scratch down my screen lol

mines from trying to prove you cant scratch it LOL........
It's highly resistant to scratches. I don't have a single scratch, no protector, and have had the phone since they came out in the US.
Of course, being glass, it still possible to scratch if you try hard enough.
i used the pouch that came with it for abotu a month and a half but then i didnt bother, ive had the phone since nov09 and dont have any scratches on the screen
i use no other than "brando ultra clear" since my early days with my palm V
screen protection is highly resistable and after 2 Years of usage with stylus no scratches. On my HD2 no difference with or without screen protector.

I'd recommend some kind of pouch when you put it somewhere together with other stuffs, especiually keys etc. If its solo in your pocket its safe.
just keep the screen pointing to your leg in case someone hits you with something. <-happened to me
i have my hd2 from nov 2009...i use the leather pouch it came in with...clean as new....but then i take care of it real good....it can get scratched if it comes in contact with a material which has a higher moh (measure of hardness) ...so get the leather pouch for hd2...it wont add bulk to your phone and provides the best cover for the screen
I got the Otterbox for the HD2 and its amazing. When I take the phone out of it to remove the battery or sd card the phone still looks BRAND new. They cost only a little more than some screen protectors do. I got mine on Amazon for around $30
2 years with my dear and not a single scratch, and i don't use the leather pouch, only a silicon case to protect the back.
Hi, screen protector save my phone when i accidentally drop my hd2 from meter and half. Screen clash on sharp stone on ground, protector to destroy, but display survive with only little scratch. So, im using screen protector. Obviously do not use cheap screen protector.
