Question I scratched my green S23 ULTRA metal frame. Any way to find the paint to fix? - Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

I am looking for a creative way to fix my S23 ULTRA green color scratches. Its very minor but I have OCD and it bothers me. Does anyone know where I can find the green paint to cover the scratch? The scratch is on the metal frame that attaches to the front glass.

It's likely anodized. Use an indelible magic marker that's the same color or a little darker to hide it.
Case it before you destroy it... these are heavy phones that wuv to corner hit and face plant.

Bad surface prep by Samsung... their QC has been going downhill.
Use a black marker and call it good.

Remove scratch from screen

I have a little scratch on it, like 4 mm long and when i have a white background, its very good noticeable, it deforms the colors.
I have no screen protector, i ordered 1 yesterday, but it seems i'm to late. I always keep my G1 in the nice pocket that came with it.
Can i do it away, or do i have to live with it ?

there is a way for non - touch screen phones but i dont think there is a way for touch screen ones, however i could be mistaken
sanding paper 6000 grit+ ( gluck finding those )
or maybe cd scratch remover
I never tried any of those so you might want to wait for a more appropriate answer
** I remove my ps3 scratches with 2k grit sand paper , some wax and voila no more scratches but I'm really not sure if 6000 grit paper or even 8000-12000 grit paper might do the job for a screen. Try it on a very old screen if you ever want to try sanding down your screen
Try using tooth paste, yes toothpaste, the colgate kind, it has some grit to it. No guarantees though, be careful, not responsible for minty fresh dead phones.
or google that stuff advertised in the late 90's to remove scrathes from eyeglasses... was I thing a self leveling polymer or some such.... but not to expencive

This is your best bet but you're going to have to be careful not to leave any on the screen where there is no scratch.
These are capacitive touchscreens, the surface of the glass/screen is special.
bad recommendation. sorry
Edit: Nevermind... Applesauce only works for ipods. Evidently it's too abrasive for the iphone, so it would be too abrasive for us too.

Attention: use only on non-coated surfaces and plastics; when used on mobile phones, treat only the transparent portions of the display lens. Not for use with touch screen displays.
Google "displex for touch screen" and you will come up with a ton of results saying it is not for touchscreens, especially capacitive like the G1 because it will remove the indium tin oxide that conducts the electric flow across the screen.
i guess sanding is out of question then
i tough there was some plastic protector to protect the real screen
Some of the screen protectors can hide scratches when applied. The Invisible Shield has been known for this due to its flexible material. No guarantees though.

I can confirm this, I actually just used a screen protector on my old VX6900 Vogue, it made most of the scratches disappear except for this one very very deep one.
I got some of the mirror protectors, a bit meh, kinda covers one of the 2 small scratches on my screen (not that they are that noticeable anyway). I have the standard kind in the post, so I'll try one of those when they get here.
Vaseline works great on most standard LCDs. The day I bought a 19" WS LCD I knocked it over, coffee all over it, but on it's way down it caught the edge of my baccy tin, leaving a bright blue stuck pixel in the middle of a scratch (arghh). Luckily I was able to massage out the pixel and cover over the scratch with some clear Vaseline, it's still visible, but only from extreme angles (way beyond the viewing angle of the screen).

Yeah I mean it won't work on a phone, it's pretty good on a proper LCD, I think because the refractive properties are far closer to the material than air.

[Q] Peeling off paint

Just wondering if the frame paint is not peeling off?
The reason is that I put a full tight protected silicone case, but I need to take it of regularly for charging purpose as I also use magnetic dock (I don't want to sacrifice my USB flap, either).
I heard that the upper and bottom parts of the frame are made of painted plastic.
Is it peeling off after some time?
I believe that the whole frame is anodised aluminium, I got that from the info-graphic published by sony, and the fact that mine has gone for a skate and the bottom bezel looks not to be plastic.
No peeling I dropped mine and on top of the frame I got a deep scratch but it's still black so no peeling

Not even a scratch or anything. The frame is still black.

My phone drop off and hit a corner, and the corner is peeling, but under that peeling it's still black, i think it have a thin coat of something like glossy barnish or something like that.
And the buttons... The buttons are a completeliy deception, here you have a picture:
It's like rusty metal.
Mine is peeling, there's a white layer underneath it. (I have a white unit).
I don't know what's coming off - aluminium (is that possible? I guess so) or some paint...

I have a black unit and it feels like powder coating however as in most cases with matte finish the panels on my device has started to become glossy after the grease on my hands rubbing and rubbing against the surface in long term. Just like a keyboard become glossy after years of typing..
Question for you people that have scratches on it. How? How are you doing this? I've had mine since release and I have zero scratches or marks on the body, and I've never used a case or anything on it. Never.
So the question is; are you guys throwing it around and putting it in places with keys and other stuff, because I don't understand how it's possible to make the power button as ugly as Confus3d's button.
- Yes, I use my Ultra as my main phone, and I have it with me wherever I go
- Never used any protection
- Yes, it has hit the floor a couple of times
- Yes, I take it with me and use it when I'm out on town... not being sober.
Still after this, I don't have a single scratch. You guys must be throwing it around like a ball

I use the phone without case and only have scratches in the back and a little bit in the lense glass, and i don't know why my button is rusted, because i've never used the phone in the water.
My last phone was an iphone 4s and two years later the buttons are perfect!
I use it very carefuly, in fact the phone has kiss the floor only once and it was a friend (a stupid friend).
I think the button has some kind of paint on it, but i'm prety sure that it's not an aluminium button
I've used mine with and without case only scratch is on top and I drop it like 2 meters from me getting out from a car rest of the phone looks brand new and I have it from last year when they put this baby on sale
Actually I'm impress by the build quality also use it as daily phone so no problem here the top scratch is my fault and survived marvellous without case
I don't have screen protector and not a single scratch
Very happy with it waiting for zu2

I used the KLD Icelandic case and now the KLD Enland case.
Have had quite a few drops (~10) with most being only 2-2.5 ft (the height of my bed lol [emoji12])
There is 'peeling' on the corners of the phone due to friction between the corners of the phone and the corner of the case. There is one (relatively speaking) giant area of peel off in the lower part of the front edge. It is kind of 'contained' within the microphone slit.
I'd send pics, but it is 3:30am out here, you'll have to wait for 4-5 hours more [emoji16].
Edit: The power button is spotless, BTW.

The top and bottom panel is plastic while the sides are made of aluminum. Plastic to probably help the antennas. At least on the black version.

It's true, you can check it easily with a coin. Smash the sides and hear the sound it makes. Top and bottom are plastic sond while sides are aluminium!

This means, we cannot avoid peeling paint on top and bottom parts of the frame. It will peel off, eventually. :crying:
The question now: how to make it last longer...?
I realize, this is a thing that I don't like from Sony. I have some Sony gadgets, most of the chrome painted parts are peeling off...

[Q] Guys i think i broke the watertight seal.. pic included.

hi all.
anyone who's experienced taking apart this device, please take a look pic attached :
i have no idea how the very thin black rubber ( or is it not rubber?) inside the top hole torn apart.
i suppose that hole is the secondary mic, right?
now, with the torn black rubber inside, will it lose the waterproof function? clearly, i don't want to test it by splashing water in it now.
Not the best photo, but it looks like you've "punctuated " the membrane.. probably... Again, pretty bad photo.

its hard to see with that image. It should look like a grey mesh, not a black rubber. Its a semipermeable membrane that stops the water, not a water tight rubber.
I think yes,because mine was sealed with a grey 'thing'

dbrand mahagony skin

I just installed the dbrand full back skin in mahagony and colored google logo.
I love it. Just take your time when applying and it'll be perfect.
very nice! got a pic of the front of the device? does the skin wrap around and cover the whole phone?
The Front is not skinned at all, The skin is only on the back, I don't like the front skins due to the haptics on the edge of the displayn when you slide on to the skin with your fingers.
This back skin, if perfectly aligned, wraps around the edges until it reaches the end of the metal body right before the front glass. There is no visual or haptic issue on the edge of the skin.

There is a video from dbrand, which sums it up quiet nice. It's not difficult. Most of the frustrated buyers just aren't patient enough while applying.
You just need patience...the fit is so precise there is no room for errors
Wow how come there's no visible bumps on the antenna lines and the gap between the glass and aluminium back?
I got the Hyperblack Titanium one and these lines are quite visible.
I'm just curious if you had this problem at all, I installed just a dbrand skin for the back glass panel- and spent a crazy amount of time applying and reapplying it. As, whenever I open the camera with it - the auto focus is a bit messed up in some situations. I've tried to get an exact line-up and it looks pretty good on the back but i can't seem to fix the problem. keep in mind most things i focus on look fine, and if it doesn't I can just tap it and it looks good. I'm just so used to the snappy auto focus right now.
give it a few weeks and you should be able to get one from ColorWare once they get a chance to finish the cut paths. Same materials, better precision, and they also offer painted options in nearly 60 colors (they look freaking sweet when finished).

So you have TWO layers of vinyl over the glass portion on the back? I have a Slickwraps skin right now, but was thinking of having a look at Dbrand. However, I DO NOT want two layers of vinyl there.
Doesn't it make for a sharp, uncomfortable ridge around the fingerprint sensor? Even one layer of vinyl makes for a sharp ridge on mine.

Okay, just to be clear - if I want a different color/texture over the glass portion, I have to apply two layers of vinyl?
If that's the case, I'll probably just stay put with my Slickwraps skin.
A very small thing that has always bothered me about skins is how the power & volume buttons don't protrude as much through the vinyl - makes it a little more difficult to operate the buttons by feel. I can't imagine placing TWO layers of vinyl around the fingerprint sensor.
I have a Slickwraps skin on my old Nexus 5 and a Dbrand on my Nexus 5x. I like them both. I must have put on about 8 or 10 skins, from both vendors, over the past few years and am actually starting to get good at it...

I have never tried Slickwrap but yes, I know what you're saying. It was kind of sharp when I first applied it. But I kept rubbing the edges with the cloth that came with it and it's not too bad now. But I wouldn't say it's completely smooth either. It's just a little sacrifice for having a skin on instead of a bulky case.

AFAIK, the extra layer for the glass only, doesn't reach the buttons at all. That panel is cut to the exact dimensions of the panel itself.
I do agree, that even the one layer of vynil made it harder to press the buttons.

Well, I'm on my 3rd Pixel skin now. I have a fourth one on the way from dbrand - hyper black titanium with matte black glass and silver G logo.
However, the one I put on today (Slickwraps black leather with matte black glass and colored G) was cut differently. I discovered that Slickwraps gives you a 'no glass' coverage option, as well as 'glass only'.
As a result, I have only one layer of vinyl on the glass. I might just replace the colored G from Slickwraps with a silver one from the incoming dbrand kit and call it good.
Now my phone really is 'Quite Black', and still looks like a Pixel. 8-D

CASEBASE tempered glass 0.24mm

I've recently purchased some black glass screen protectors from CASEBASE.
Fitment is perfect no issues for me.
I do believe they are thinner than others or at least 1 of the thinnest.
They are £6.99 for 2 on ebay.
Just giving you the heads up to protect your op5's
If you found this useful tap thanks
Managed to take some photos on a budget tablet (sorry if pictures are not very good quality)
Looks good.
Can't believe the screen protector supplied with my OP5 is shows signs of peeling. I haven't even taken it out of the box yet!

No peeling on this what so ever and it seems to fill the screen more than that 1.

Mine is exactly the same with a slight lift along the bottom edge of the screen. The 3T I had briefly was much worse as the lift was top and bottom.
It's the curse of the 2.5D screen and a slightly misaligned or badly sized protector.

No I've not noticed any loss of screen none that I'm aware off as I make sure the screen is lit up when I'm installing it.
There's certainly no lift it fits perfect.

Hello,
there is glue just on the black side of the glass or everywhere (even in the middle) ?
Beside when you look at your phone with a white background, is there some oil effect ?
I got a glass from Orzly and i got all those issues...

Do you find the screen hard to see in sunlight with this protector on? I seem to struggle to see and brightness is on full. Also I have started to see some bleed on the edges. Do you think the CASEBASE is exactly the same as orzly ? As if orzly is better I might purchase that.

No, there will be not. Okay well if they change adhesive/glue type.
Working thing would need to entire tgsp be adhesive. Or maybe Whitestone style, they have somekind of different glue system which you dry with UV lamp.
But really oil slick comes because glass is just touching screen part thanks to glue on the sides only. So it leaves really small gap between tgsp and glass and if you havent cleaned your screen like some sort un-humam/robot which is really impossible, there will be oil slick.. Maybe not right after you have installed it but soon. Some manufacters (like Orzly) makes "dots" to prevent oil slick. It basically lift really really littlebit tgsp from phone's glass surface so tgsp wouldnt touch screen surface. But then people are crying about visible annoying dots on tgsp.
Thats why Oneplus official tgsp is adhesive from entire glass. But because of OP3/3T/5 style (glass starts bending before screen ends) they needed to cut about 0.4mm from both side with protectors black borders to not produce halo.
So none of methods what different manufacter use, isnt good enough...
Oh i forgot ones without black borders. Either they will end before screen ends or they will cover entire screen but leaves on sides.

They had the matrix dots on the CASEBASE but they don't seem to help the rainbow affect. Whitestone is the way to go I was tempted to get that kit for my s8+ but I found a protector that worked for the s8 even with its big curve.
I'm very surprised there isn't any perfect 1s for oneplus 5. The CASEBASE is close but not quite there. Fitment in it is good.
I think I'll end up with some tpu on it ?

Yeah dots should theoretically help on oil slick and prevent them but it wont delete those entirely and my personal opinion is that it wont help at all.
Orzly's last year model for 3/3T had also dots and oil slick so im not confident that it would be better for this They still have dots, thats what i know for sure
