Fingerprint hell - Galaxy S6 Edge General

This was after lightly using the phone to play asphalt 8 airborne
Be ready to carry a microfiber cloth in your pocket

I guess that's something I need to be prepared for. I am pretty sure the white didn't show fingerprints when I saw it in Best Buy but it didn't look as good to me.

thats why i got myself the white one lol.

Hoping my case will reduce this issue personally, but it comes with the territory of coating things in gorilla glass.

I know my case will but I really don't want to cover the phone up. Too bad the clear Samsung case doesn't seem protective.

For those that aren't a fan of cases, but hate fingerprints, you could try a clear matte skin for the back.

Did you butter it or something?

Stop eating with your hands.

That's why I got a screen protector for the back too.

Exact reason I got the white one. This is the same thing that happened with the G2 and it was addressed with the G3.

Do you have a screen protector installed? Just wiping it on my sleeve is usually enough.

lol. that was my first thought when i saw this thread.
to the op: +1 for using shirt.
Three grit sandpaper followed by a generous polishing with pumice soap.
Actually I am all about the shirt.

wasnt there someone around here who actually polished his phone glass with red jewelers rouge amd a wheel?

Is the glass protecting the proximity sensor?

Ok I make a lot of phone calls on my cell phone for long period's of times and I know the oil's on my face are on the phone a lot.I wanted to know is the glass protecting the proximity sensor? I mean like is the sensor under it? I just don't want the thing to break but I do have the stock screen protector they provided you with on the phone. Also is there a way to break the proximity sensor? Thanks

SGS2 Screen Friction

Greetings SGS2 owners,
I'd like to know your opinions on the SGS2 touchscreen surface.
Sometimes it's an unpleasant experience to swype texts because my finger gets stuck to the screen.
But some other time, the screen surface is silky smooth. Not sure why is this happening.
And the other day, a friend told me that my SGS2 has more screen friction compared to an iphone. Anybody can verify if this is true?
Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks.
Your fingers have grease on them naturally, it makes them slick. However if you clean your screen or wash ur hands it will stick

Thank God I don't have sweaty hands ...
It dosn't matter if I use a screen protector or not ... when my finger gets moisty/wet I can't use Swype LOL
On most other surfaces water would make it more slippery ... strange
Thank God I don't have sweaty hands ...
Yes, all boils down to the dust or grease accumulated on the screen and on your hands Nothing else ...
There's a software update to make the screen smoother.

yeah if you underuse your fingers
lol I forget this is a software development forum.
I'm thinking more on homemade fix.
Have anyone tried something like talcum powder or any other lubricant (gasp!) with good effect and no adverse results to the screen?

Found something funny!!

If you get a grape and use it as a 'stylus' it actually works, and better, its really accurate too. Thought I should just post this as I found it quite funny

I can see you eating some grapes while using the tablet... then one falls from your hand and bounces against the TF screen... and then you witness some incredibly accurate touch events
Thanks for the tip
Gett a bag of chips and rip the bag and wrap the ripped part around a pen and use a rubber band or tape to wrape it around. Works just like a stylus. No joke. I saw it on life hacks part 1. Lok

Anything that can conduct electricity and is touching your skin will work
Grape is best idea yet
I have a mechanical pencil that some of the internal broke but the exterior is metal. I took one of the yellow kitchen sponges with the green scrubby part on them and stuffed it inside the pencil with a little hanging out the tip. Works great!

Accurate, cheap, it also doesn't scratch the screen and doesn't leave finger marks! Perfect stylus in my opinion!

I dont think my cat would enjoy being a stylus. My bird might though but im not sure his beak conducts electricity well.

Flamer..
you're right, was a good video.
As for the music, she is a good singer but the rest sounded a little overproduced. Was almost like pop heavy metal. More importantly:
WHERE IS THE DOUBLE BASS ROLL AND SHREDDED GUITAR SOLO?
for some reason, i kept waiting for This Love by Pantera.

Hells yea, Angela Gossow is badass,she another great singer as far as metal goes.
Damn, I really really wanted to like it, but I think I have to face the simple fact that I'm getting too old for some of this stuff. For me it wasn't singing, but more like painful squelching, like the sound she would make from a tampon insertion going horribly wrong. Love the caked on black eye makeup running all down her face, that takes talent.
