- So, the 9930 comes with a little plastic screen protector, but it has a flap hanging off the top which makes it unusable for the long term. The trick is to cut the little flap off with scissors and you will have a perfectly fitting no bubble screen protector on the phone for free.
Obviously if you already pulled it off it is too late, but keep this in mind for future phones. I've been doing this with devices for the past 2 years and it's the best way to protect your screen.09-28-11 08:52 AMLike 0 - So, the 9930 comes with a little plastic screen protector, but it has a flap hanging off the top which makes it unusable for the long term.

This has always protected my screens from the little scratches my phone would have eventually had on the screen from my pocket or being placed face down on a table.09-28-11 10:05 AMLike 0
- My first 9930 had to be replaced and when I went in store to the replace it the terrible rep I was working with took it off just like in dimm0k's case. I never had any intention of keeping it on for forever and ever but as a college student I just didn't have the money to buy a new phone, case and screen protector all in one check.09-28-11 10:06 AMLike 0

- Not gonna lie, I laugh every time I see someone with the original plastic cover still on their screens. Those things bubble up so fast and they're so flimsy, they really don't offer a whole lot of protection. For the price that screen protectors are these days, it makes sense just to buy a 3 pack and be done...thinktankz likes this.09-28-11 11:25 AMLike 1

- I'm guessing you didn't read the thread where the person attempted to scratch the screen with various sharp objects such as keys and wire cutter and surprisingly it withstood anything thrown its way.
So basically stop/dont spend $$ on a protector!
