Not unscratchable. It pickes up crazy scratches with a screwdriver but not with keys or anything like that.

^Approx Rs.2k, but you may also get it for around Rs.1.5k using your bargaining skills.

I think it would be possible.but you would need to remove digitizer without damaging it,then remove upper glass,fit the gorilla glass then put the digitizer back.the upper glass has nothing to do with the digitizer unless they are completely glued together.and it would be really hard,or maybie impossible if you have a gt-i5801,because there are no hard buttons,and touch buttons are in one piece with the glass.

Gorilla glass is not resistant to scratches. Its just harder to break.
Ouchies. I have chips on the side where the glass wraps wrong but at least they're not in view when using it.

You might want to.check your facts. It has a hardness greater then most glass.
Anyone know of a legit place to get a replacement front glass for gnex. My digitizer is fine so I don't need that. I've never done this before, just looking for someone to point me in the right direction.

can you post the pics of the phone
$17.90 for front glass, not bad. I have a surface scratch on mine that has been bugging me, might be cheap enough to be worth the trouble. Has anybody had any experience ordering from that website? Is there any instructions included on how to replace the items or is that something that you just have to find on your own?

Any luck with this? Looking to do the same with my i515 gnex, does anyone happen to know if the glass cutouts for the two versions are the same?
From what I read, its strongly recommend to replace the whole unit(screen, digitizer, and glass) because its a huge pain to get glass off if you are lucky enough to do so.

I know its tricky, but i've done it before(heat is my friend). Once you do it once it actually isn't bad especially because the nexus has the slight lip around the screen which helps you big time with positioning the glass. I'm just confused if the two glass cutouts are the same or not.
So I still have broken glass that is finally starting to fall out whilst the cracks have gotten larger, no thanks to my two year old who loves to throw toys.
Has anyone seen the glass replacement, not the digitizer, last long term?
I'm trying to hold out until October but concerned that I'm going to lose the screen entirely soon.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
My phone has EXACTLY the same crack pattern!! And I know how bad it feels.
Is this some design issue with the GNex stress points?
I asked the Samsung Care Center and they asked around $185 for the replacement (glass and digitizer)
That is more than half of the phone cost. :crying:
(Edit: They said as the front glass, the digitizer and the lcd are glued together, it is impossible to get a seperate glass replacement)
Luckily I had a screen guard on so the glass pieces are not falling apart yet.
You can get the glass and ask a trustworthy maintenance guy for helping replace it.
I haven't tried yet. But might try soon. :fingers-crossed:

Asking to those who had a scratch on the screen and didn't wanna pay 200 odd bucks to replace the LCD and Digitizer, have you bought any of those third party front outer glass available on eBay for around 20 bucks? If you have done it, does the S Pen work, or is the glass Gorilla or just standard one?
I have a scratch on mine, very tiny, but it's in the middle of the phone, that's why it's irritating me, but I will no way spend 1/3 of the phone's price to replace the LCD and Digitizer especially when I believe the LCD is not scratched as it is not deep.
Thanks in advance.
I would live with it if I were you. It is highly likely that no matter how skilled, you will end up with some imperfection that will be just as bad as the scratch. You will also void your warranty. For a small scratch it isn't worth the money or time when you can't be guaranteed of a perfect result. Also consider that the cheap eBay screens are usually not genuine and probably not even gorilla glass so will scratch up more easily leaving you worse off than you are now.

I wouldn't suggest changing the glass for a scratch. Alternatively, you could just get a glass screen protector that covers the entire front glass; it will hide the scratch, and its glass!
However, if you do still decide to go along with changing the screen then check the link below on my signature.

Yeah, thanks. I have heard that some screen protectors do make some tiny scratches invisible, maybe it's right, protectors like Martinfield or something, don't remember the name exactly. You have any advice, brands with a link would be appreciated.
And thanks for the link on your siggy.
PS: Didn't notice that you mentioned Glass protectors! Well won't that make the screen less responsive or something? Will the S Pen work as it does normally? Honestly I don't have any idea or even heard of Glass protectors for Note 2.

It has been widely debated. The note 2 has gorilla glass 2 as my link PROVES. You think you know so much and ask noob questions about changing a screen! :banghead:

Mate Wiki isn't "proof" for anything. It's the last reliable source if anything.
I think it probably has GG to be honest, because otherwise I'm not sure how it even passes the moderate scratch tests - if it's plain glass surely it should immediately scratch? And even S3's with Gorilla glass could scratch like crazy if a grain of sand gets in there.

My links say that Note 2 does NOT have Gorilla Glass. Say, not prove. You might be a Samsung fanboy, but I am not. Why sites like GSMArena, Phonearena, Corning doesn't mention that it has GG? They don't have any personal problem with Note 2, so?
And what's that 'so much knowing thing', are you a kid or what?

Samsung and corning already said early on they wouldn't confirm as they were under some sort of NDA agreement
Only a fool would believe a flagship device like the note 2 doesn't use "gorilla glass" or some other aluminosilicate equivalent.

One the attack eh? Was your knowledge challenged?
Are you the type of person who always has to be correct? If you wanted to be 100% correct in your post I suggest you read up in writing etiquette or even behavioural science . Was a little harsh and very defensive.
This thread is going south.
Needless to mention, in the absence of any type of confirmation from Corning, you are more than likely right with your assumptions.
Hope you have a great day.
