Case screens . obex? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hello,
I have an s4 and need a case. Seidio Obex would be nice because its waterproof but what about the screen? I wonder when the screen gets scratched up will I have to live with it or buy a whole new case? I also wonder it's impact protection.
Thanks

I just received my new lifeproof case today. Bought the nuud version which don't have a screen protector. But you could buy the fre version which has the screen cover. I also bought the water protection for extra 10 bucks and warranties your phone from water damage.

For those needing replacement hard parts

There was a post on here at some point from someone needing a new glass screen for their HD.
Since I'm not sure if it's against the rules, I won't put a link on this forum but I will say it was on ebay.
There was a glass screen replacement and some other brand new replacement hard parts.
Anyway, hope that helps.

HD2 hard plastic rubberised case

Has anyone come across a plastic rubberised case like this one for the HD2?

I bought one of these for my Touch HD and it is fantastic, but upgraded to the HD2 now
and can't find one like this anywhere.
Cheers,
Richard.

Somebody explain why my Bodyglove case sucks?

I have been lurking around here for about a month since I got my vibrant and keep seeing posts about TPU (is that right?) cases being so much better than the body glove cases, and that BG just sucks.
I mean, the power button is a bit hard to get to at times and the whole thing is a tad bulky, but I'm in the market for the toughest case in town....i have a track record of destroying any mobile electronics, specifically cell phones, in just a few months time
So can somebody tell me what I'm missing out on? Just curious about options I guess

[Q] Camera sticker/cover

Anyone else find a very very small sticker covering their camera? It was still there after completely removing (I thought!) all the little sticker/protective covers on the rest of the phone.
Just found it, having a hell of a time getting it off but it's definitely there!
Yeah, I took it off.
There's a thread about this already.

Sorry, I searched the forums a handful of different ways and didn't find anything about this.
My bad.
Yeah if you look around the bumper there is some there as well. Its to protect from incidentally scratching off surfaces. Older slide phones came with them on the back of the slider as well. Even the charger block came with one I believe lol. But yeah it shouldn't be too hard to take off.

Back glass slightly cracked. Is a replacement even necessary?

Hi guys, this is not a whine thread.
I'm travelling Vietnam and Thailand for 2 months, was picking up my day pack, forgot to close the zipper and dropped my N4. No biggie, still works like a charm, but a couple of days later I noticed there is a barely visible crack going half-circle-wise from the top right to the bottom right of the back glass. Might even just have been the heat around here and not the drop, as it's a constant 35+ degrees celsius and there is no visible "pressure point" to the crack. It is just one single crack.
I don't even care about it. It's virtually invisible and my phone is a work horse. I've always used it naked and I'll replace it some day anyways.
However, I am wondering if the crack will get worse, or if there is any reason besides aesthetics to replace the back glass. I love my N4 and I'd rather spend some money now to fix the broken back then buy a new phone a few months from now if the crack is just the start of a bunch of problems to come.
If the crack will not get worse or cause more problems in the future though, I was thinking of just putting a thin, hard case on it when I get home.
Did anyone here crack their N4's back glass and decide to not get it fixed?
Cheers!
Wrong section of the forum mate, should of been posted in the Xperia Z Q&A Section as this has nothing to do with Android Development lol
Go home boy, you're drunk. hahaha. This isn't nexus 4 forum and this is a development thread. Haha.

Are posts like that really necessary ? Is this 9GAG or XDA Developers ? If you can't answer the question, then don't post - and if the section is wrong, there's a nice yellow triangle for you to press and let the devs know...
@OP: There is no point in replacing it now, unless you can do it for free or very very cheap. If you can live with it - just ignore the crack. Be careful though, if it cracked - it might break sooner or later. A hard case might help as you won't put so much pressure on the glass with it on. This is a wrong section, yes, but if you look at Nexus 4 forums - cracked back glass happens quite often with this phone and most users seem to ignore the issue as it's not worth the hassle.
Don't post questions in Development, thread moved to Q&A.
Thanks
My sincere apologies for posting it in the wrong subforum.
Thanks for the replies! I'll probably not get it fixed then.
