[Q] Bezel got (micro) scratched; How to safely remove them? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey folks,
Has anyone here ever tried to remove micro-scratches/swirls from the bezel? My bezel got scratched and it annoys me every time I see the phone since the scratch is pretty noticeable under the right angle.
I tried some car polishers that were lying around my house (Kit Scratch Out, Mother's Plastic Polish, etc.) but no luck.
A friend of mine said that he managed to remove similar scratches off his PS3 using some product called Scratch Ex or something -- I can't quite remember the name, LOL -- should I try it?

I'm surprised you getting all loco over a itsy bitsy scratch. Here's a solution, buy a bumper or a case to cover it up. I really doubt all those liquid substances will work. It's not like removing scratches on a CD or DVD.

I'm not sure if you can remove scratches from metal so easily

Blue Magic metal polish would probably do the trick. The bumper is actually what caused the scratches on my bezel, so now I go nekkid

The bezel is made of metal? I doubt it. Imho it is plastic with a chrome finish.

[Q] Skinomi on a Nexus 10?

I purchased a Skinomi screen protector for my Nexus 10. Once I received it and realized that I had to use this solution to apply it, I got very concerned about getting solution inside the device due to the huge speaker openings running down both sides of the N10. It seems to me that it would be virually impossible to avoid solution getting into those speaker openings.
Has anyone applied a Sknomi protector to a Nexus 10? Or does anyone have any suggestions on doing this safely? I wrote to Skinomi and got a useless canned reply.
I LOVE this tablet BTW! I've had an Acer Iconia A500 since April of 2011. The difference between that and the Nexus is incredible!
FWIW, I have no screen bleed. No issues at all. My only complaint is Google removing the easy menu item for muting notification sounds (Honeycomb had this). Now you have to go all the way into settings to do this or you get email/game pings while listening to music or playing videos. Really lame to remove a nice feature from a supposed upgrade.
You can try taping over the speaker grills. There's enough clearance to apply clear tape on there. I used Skinomi on my previous tabs like Gtab 10.1 and Prime. Since then I have been going naked and haven't had any problems since. I even let my 5 year old daughter use my N10 without any scratches on my screen.

I thought about tape, but in my experience, tape is not very good at sealing out liquids. I think I'm going to send the Skinomi back and wait for PosRus to come up with one for the Nexus 10. I love PosRus screen protectors.Thanks for the reply!
I used to put screen protectors on all my gadgets with a screen but then I came to my senses and realized, what's the point? It adds a rubbery layer that takes away from the smooth feeling of the screen and degrades the image quality slightly. The screen is made of Gorilla Glass which is pretty resistant to scratches unless you stab it with a knife. I would say just go naked.
FYI, you don't spray the solution directly on the device, you mist it onto the protector (not a lot). You then squeegee it out towards the sides without the speakers while holding a cloth at the edge to catch the runoff. There shouldn't be a whole lot of liquid anyways to be a concern even if you do get some over the speakers.

Lots of support for naked here I see! LOL
OK...I'm thinking about it. Thanks for the input.

[Q] Anyone not using a case or bumper or screen protector at all?

Despite my concerns about the glass back on the Nexus 4, I went ahead and got one, for various reasons (my other leading contender was a HTC One X+).
But I hate cases. Just wondering if anybody who has had the Nexus 4 for a while has been using it without a case or bumper (or screen protector). How has that gone? Glass back okay? Cracks? Scratches?

I received my phone at the end of November and didn't have any protection on it. It lasted until this week, when the glass back shattered (not from any impact, I believe it was the result of temperature differences). It had gotten a little bit of wear and tear, with a few hairline scratches on the glass.
If you want to keep your phone in pristine condition, wrap it up. If you're okay with it getting wear and tear, the bumper should be fine. If you go bare, I believe it's probably just a matter of time before something happens.
I've been using the Nexus 4 with a Diztronic case and it seems fine, however I'm still awaiting an OtterBox for my Nexus 4.

I'm not using protection... It is just a matter of time before something happens... But in the mean time this phone feels and looks awesome.
I'm an architect and it has always bothered me to cover up nice design... Though, I do wish they had prioritized durability in their design criteria...
P
I got n4 when it first came out so there were no decent cases around. I used my phone naked for about two weeks and ended up with three scratches on the back and a few more on the bezel.
I now have the LG bumper and a screen protector on the back. The front is holding on line a champ though so im not using protection.
I got the scratches because the phone feel of my desk twice (be careful is really slippery).

not a single scratch!
The phone comes with a screen protector on the back that is so clear and thin, that I didn't even realize it was there, It has protected the actual phone from scratches. Though a body screen protector is on it's way and a nice hybrid case that covers the front too. I'm not rough with my phones, but my GS2 has almost no bezel left from the nicks. And my hopes are to sell the Nexus 4 for enough to buy the nexus 5 when it comes out (as many people seem to have been able to do that with the galaxy nexus)
Thanks for the replies.
Yeah, for now I've left the plastic covering that comes on the back, since it's not very noticeable anyway. Maybe I'll get a bumper at some point. It's the experiences of people who have the back shatter without any obvious impact that worries me.

Do you have a sense of the particular temperature situation that caused the problem?
Ive got that paranoid over reading threads about the N4 exploding in to a billion shards of glass for no reason i ordered a case before i even ordered the dam phone!

Oddly, it was unseasonably warm last week, with morning temperatures in the mid-40's and highs near 70. I suspect that the phone warmed up from using the GPS (Nexus 4 owners know how warm they can get) and then because I had ambient air coming out of the vents, that cooled it down. Over the course of two months of doing this, it probably weakened the glass and then one day, it all just gave out.
I bought a screen protector for the front and back, the screen looked horrible so took it off. Back protector is still on

I posted about this earlier but I had it less than a week and was so careful with it because of what I read and noticed a hairline crack about a 1/2 inch long starting from the middle edge. No drops or anything. I immediately ordered a Zagg protector and only put it on the back. I'm hoping it stops it from running any further.
I haven't put it on the front because I hate the way it feels, and the Gorilla Glass seems to resist scratches very well; unless you do something stupid like keep it in the same pocket as keys or change or something. I had my SII for almost 2 years with no screen protection and the front glass looks brand new. And the front of this is Gorilla Glass 2 so hopefully it will hold up even better.
I wish they would have used the same glass on the back as the front, but I'm sure the cost would have been too much.

Mines been naked since december and its still good. I have it in a pouch when in my bag to prevent scratches.
My oleophobic coating has pretty much gone though. Screen is no where near as smooth as it was. I'm going to try the fusso liquid coating. Anyone have any experience with this?

Used mine for 2 months without any protection. Fell once on the pavement, got few bad dings on the chrome plastic bezel, guess it's time for a bumper to cover that up. Also has couple of scratches on the back. Front glass looks perfect so far.
I used my first nexus 4 without any protection and after a month, the back glass had lots of scratches and the front only a few ones (usually invisible). Then I had problems with it and I placed a RMA, this one has had from the first day a screen protector and a TPU case.
Got my Nexus 4 a few days ago but was still waiting on my case to come in. I decided not to take off the front and back screen protector that came with it.
Good thing I didn't too because yesterday I was listening to music on my phone. A coworker bumped into me and it fell out of my hand (about chest height) and landed face down. I was in shock and couldn't move for a good 6 seconds. Thoughts were racing through my head. Lol. I was like yup. Only two days in and my phone is shattered. It's done for.
I picked it up and there were a lot of scratches on the screen. My face was so sour. I tried to rub it off but it wouldn't come off. After work, I went inside my car and looked at it again. I decided to take the screen protector off. Lo and behold, the screen was pristine. Not a single crack or scratch. I was so relieved. Lol.
My case finally came in today. I would advise for a case to at least protect the back. I won't be using a screen protector though.

I've had mine since the last week of Nov. I use it 24/7 no case no screen protector. And I stay in Houston where the weather is constantly changing. No issues here whatsoever. Still looks brand new.

I can't stand cases or screen protectors. I carry the phone in the front pocket of my jeans and a case simply makes the phone too bulky to carry for me. Nothing ever goes in the same pocket as my phone, so I don't worry about scratches so much.
That being said, over time there is no way to prevent the back and sides from being scuffed up. Not only that, this phone is pretty slippery totally naked. To solve these two problems, I use Skinomi carbon fiber skins not only on this N4 as I did on my GS2 and my Transformer Prime and dock. I like to keep my devices in mint condition for resale value. I highly recommend.
I've had a Cruzerlite TPU case on my N4 since day one. Still in perfect condition. I ordered the official bumper when it went back in stock last week. I don't like it. Way too slippery, especially compared to the grip the TPU case provides. The bumper looks better, it's sexy, I'll give it that... but the device doesn't feel secure in my hands at all. I went back to the TPU case and I'm returning the bumper.
This is the first phone I've used a case on. I generally hate the added bulk and covering the design. But the horror stories about the glass back are far too numerous to go naked with the N4. The Cruzerlite case is quite thin and I've grown to like it.
I bought case but don't use it .
No screen protector from last 1 month .
I do have protector for back but not any case.
I just be careful not to drop my phone . I did drop it once but it was from 2 feet on the carpet . have no scratch on front or back but screen need to be cleaned cause It gets dirty.
Only scratched I got is on the bezzel and it was due to my case so I stopped using case.

Broken Back with Bumper or TPU case on Nexus 4?

Just curious, has anyone broken/cracked the back of their device, while they had a bumper(OEM or Poetic) or TPU case on it, from a drop? Looking to see how these accessories are holding up.

Only had my phone for 2 days. I am using an S-Line grip case, £1.99 on eBay. Some people hate them because they are a bit sticky and what not, however I dropped mine on the train when the ticket inspector started hassling me. No cracks in the back, no cracks in the screen, slight mark on the £1.99 case :good:
Doing its job.
I was using a Cruzerlite Androidified case because the official bumpers weren't available. I felt really secure with that case. I recently got the bumper when it became available and am using it with an Xtreme guard clear skin on the back. I was a bit nervous about so much of the phone being unprotected with plastic or rubber, but so far no incidents. But I'm also very careful with it. I don't baby it, but I'm not climbing trees or having wrestling matches with it in my pocket either.
I never dropped it with the case, but it has slipped once from my hand with the bumper (because its a lot more slippery with just a clear skin on the back). It survived just fine with only a minor scuff to the bumper which I was able to buff out.
I'm very clumsy and don't have any case on mine. It's survived 3-4 waist high drops into tile and concrete with just a couple scuffs on the bevel

Edited because of predictive text...
I've had mine for about a week now. Have no screen protector on the front but have left the plastic sheet that the phone came with on the back. Have also slipped it into a Nilkin case that I bought from eBay. It's a hard plastic but thin case, feels well solid. I have had no cracks or issues and yes, I have dropped it once from about a metre onto tile flooring. I guess ultimately, it's how you treat the phone and the luck you have. I would say, if you have some sort of a casing for it, you should be pretty safe.

Physical Body Build Quality (silver) -- Easily Scratched

I just noticed a few scratches that I'll have to live with.. Maybe I'll have to buy a case now (thought going naked would have been fine)
I know there are plenty of topic on this, but most cover actual defects.
Btw, just wanted to say that I LOVE this device. No way I'm returning. Not even this unit! Can't! Spent soo much time customizing it, and even the benchmarks are slightly above average
Anyway... My problem right now is the chamfered edges and the bottom speaker grill.
The silver One is susceptible to the same amount of scratches as the Black One, albeit they won't be as prominent on the silver variant.
The unit I'm talking about is actually a replacement. The first One I owned had defects, but even for the short time I had it, it somehow managed to build a few dents and scuffs on the chamfered edge up at the top speaker grill.
This time, the problem's on the bottom! I have a few scuffs on the bottom chamfered edge... It's been 4 days in my possession, and already is growing hits and dings. Now here's the interesting part.. As a university student, school's out and the phone has pretty much left the house only once! Other days it laid either in my hand, on my pocket, or on the floor right by my bed.
I looked at it and thought that maybe I can polish them when they get worse.. But things took a turn for the worse right away!! As I was examining the scuffs on the edge, I came across a hairline scratch that extended from the bottom of the lower speaker grill to the top (of the speaker grill) -- almost like a crack -- a hairline crack. Looks as if a pencil lightly went over it.
I've attached photos for your viewing pleasure, but as minor as they appear, note that it's only been about 4 days!! I'm wondering what'll come out of it over an extended period of use.. Guess I can live with whatever has happened to date though =]
*please note that the images aren't too good a representation of the actual damage to the device. It's slightly worse in person -- the abundance of light blurs the scratches a bit.
Arghhh the photos have since showed less of the damage as I had to resize the images to 640* 425 (instead of 4288 * 2848 )
To me, it's just like a dead pixel. You can't tell it's there in normal use, but once you find it, it'll haunt you for a while. At one point you won't care.. But when you see it again, you'll start kicking yourself.
I've been babying my phone, but I think it's time for me to go up onto Amazon and buy myself a good case. *flies to look at the Accessories forum*
Any of you folks keeping your phone naked experience any unexplained scuffs and nicks on your edges? Scratches on your speaker grill?
You guys think that we'd be able to -- at some point -- replace the speaker grills with OEM parts? I'm sure people will come across much worse problems...
No matter what device, what manufacture or what materials the device is made out of, if you don't use a case, this will happen and worst. Your scratches are barely visible. I had to zoom in the picture to see them.
I don't have the device yet but I already have 3 cases for it and a pack of screen protectors. The official flip case and 2 tpu s line cases, one black and one clear.
Sent from my HTC myTouch 4g using xda premium
I agree. I guess it's just that I'm bummed it happened so soon!
I'll learn to live with this. I don;t think I'm ready for a case just yet. The cases I've seen so far don't look too good and add way too much bulk. The slimmer ones don't cover the top and bottom chamfered edges...
I'll keep looking. I do have full body screen protection, except it only covers the screen itself and the rear of the device. Speaker grills (understandably) are left to be in the open
Did you check the phone over when you got it? Just asking as I've seen a one or two with some nicks and scratches out of the box I'm guessing it happened when polishing the chamfered edge.
Man, how do you use your phone to manage to put these scratches and dents.
I have had the phone since last Friday with daily use and no scratches, I just put a skinomi clear film in the back to protect against scratches and dents, the front is naked, looks beautiful, you don't even notice the film is there
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
I have films on the back and front of the device myself!
I honestly do not know where these came from. It's been on my desk or on the floor by my bed. Hasn't left the house -- maybe just once..
Anyway I attached another saddening photo. This was taken with my old Atrix.
I'm thinking that this may have been a result of missing the charging port and accidentally sliding the micro usb plug into the front of the phone while I was half asleep...
Anyway, I'm sitting here and there's much greater things to worry about. It could have been much worse... A random scratch on the screen or a deeper nick...
Besides, the bottom speaker grill is a separate piece and if it continues to get scratched up and continues to bother me, I'll just see if i can get it replaced..
Hope I actually move on. This is the same feeling as when I found a dent on my $700 guitar.. I got over that. So ill probably get high over this
Aha I'm wondering what it'll feel like when I find a small scratch on my first new car -_-... Boy will I be a mess!

Aluminum is a soft metal, unlike titanium or other harder metals. They chose aluminum because it is light weight.
So do you think black is more durable? I'm going to buy One today so I might considering buying black instead if thats the case.
Btw usually stratches goes away when wiped properly. At least do on my black One S. Dents, however, stays forever.

Yep. But I'm hoping that maybe next year they make the switch to a harder metal like steel... The OPPO Find 5 allegedly has a steel frame construction. Sure it's heavy, but if they get the right look, whatever! Durability should be of more importance than weight..
Now if it does weigh too much, maybe implement the steel construction only around certain areas...
I'm aware this will pull up costs, but the device would be that much better!

There's another thread about scuffs on the black edition. Maybe I've got too far... You can't see this if you're not looking for them, but to me they'll always be there.
I've seen multiple accounts of folks on here see through their black paint into the aluminum underneath.. You'd want to avoid that.. So I don't regret having the silver edition.
They both scratch the same amount, but the black shows more..
Good luck and I hope you enjoy your One just as much as I am!
Choose the device that also to you more! If you like the stealthy black, but that! But if you do, go for the Poetic Atmosphere case.. Looks pretty nice on the black variant.. The silver one.. Not so much.
Still going to look for a case, but it isn't my priority.. I'd rather keep the phone naked and enjoy the cool feel everyone I touch it in the morning!

I've wipes this, took a moist set of wipes below the actual holes, but nothing. There is a scratch, not a surface scratch, it's slightly deeper.
100% sure this ain't going away.. But i haven't lost all hope! As this phone e grows in popularity, some ebay sellers will manage to get their hands on some grills and they should be replaced rather easily since they're in there only via an adhesive. Would have been more ticked off if it was on the screen, on the chamfered edge off of the back, or even on the back itself..
Here's hoping the grills are replaceable and I can do something about it in maybe 6 months!

No idea what to say. I'm keeping it naked. Maybe this was from the factory.. I don't see how you can get a scratch from the bottom to the top of a grill without taking your phone out much...
Maybe I didn't notice this before, but i still am worried about the durability of the device. If pocketnow reports bad durability, then I've got no option but to go with a case. Right now i dont even know where these came from.. No sand in my room, no hard metals that would easily scratch anodized aluminum..
It really IS a mystery...

this is why HTC's own double flip / dip are actually a lot softer to install

Tell me about it! When I bought snap on cases for my Atrix, the plastic around the phone was soo scuffed it actually looks nasty without a case. Definitely not making that mistake again!
I don't think tpu or hardshell plastic cases can really damage the aluminum bezel as aluminum is harder..
But it's still something I worry about and a case like the one you linked to is just perfect.

I feel you but the cheap TPU's will scratch phones too. Only cases I have found to never ever scratch a phone are Otterbox has a combo silicone tpu which is very soft and nonabrasive unlike normal tpu. Capdase Aluminum cases they are soft touch silicone on the inside will never ever scratch. And last my old friend Incipio their double layer cases have a soft touch silicone also that will not scratch the phone.

No TPU is not rubbery its more like flexible hard plastic. If the case fits well the TPU material will scratch the phone from taking it off putting it back too much. If anything get in between the phone and the case game over it's almost worse than naked. It's sold as rubber like or soft but I have 20 different TPU cases and all are the same crap. Otterbox and the others I mentioned use silicone which is like a soft rubber. TPU is a cheap is injected crappy material that is why you will find cases as low as $5 or lower.

Scratches on bezel.....

Hi. I've been a N4 user since last week and the phone is great. Its very fast and the build quality is amazing (compared to my old samsung). After one week of use with it naked and with extreme care there were no scratches or damage anywhere. that is, expect for the bezel. The top and bottom of the bezel is covered in tiny scratches and it is annoying, especially considering how I babied it. Do you guys also have these scratches on your phones? Any suggestions/tips on removing them? Am I being paranoid?(I'm a scrach-a-phobic)
tl;dr the bezel is scratched how to remove scratch?
Oh no not this again.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
You can`t remove the scratches, it is in plastic. What I find did help, was to remove it from bumper and keep rubbing finger up and down the scratches. This has a "very" light abrasive action if you keep rubbing and may just help. Dont put any solvents or polish on it. You will knacker it.
My girlfriend dropped hers, dinted the corner of the bezel and she sent it back - The charger wasn`t working correctly - never did from new, so she RMA`d it... perfect excuse in the end
