How to remove a phone screen protector safely

To remove a screen protector, lift one corner with a fingernail or a plastic card and peel it off slowly without bending it. For a cracked glass protector, stick tape over it so the pieces stay together as you pull. Do not use a knife or metal tool; it can scratch the screen and front camera.

Key points
  • Lift one corner with a fingernail or plastic card.
  • Peel the protector off slowly without bending it.
  • For cracked glass, hold the pieces together with tape as you pull.
  • Knives and metal tools scratch the screen; do not use them.
  • Afterwards, check the screen for cracks or dead touch areas.

01Step by step

  1. Turn it off. This avoids accidental touches.

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
