Do I need to remove the current clear screen cover and then put this screen cover on or can I put this one on over the original one?

Not sure this helps, but: I put the BoxWave cover directly on the phone, and the put my "Body Glove" case on top of that. The Body Glove also has a screen cover, so that's two covers -- and the touch capability works fine.

Mine did not have a previous cover, but I would remove the previous cover, use the included cleaning pad to remove any residue from the screen then apply the new screen cover.

I would recommend removing the current one, clean your screen with a soft cloth and screen cleaner. let dry and then install the BoxWave. I love mine, I clean it every once in awhile. great product.

Take the screen off. It wasn't designed to be on there. Remove it and buy a separate screen protector. On Amazon they are as low as $1.99.

Best to check the back of your current screen, wich is not verry hard to get to. You take the front frame off wich has no screws and then take the screen off wich has only 4 screws.carefull dont pull it off because its still connected. Compare your model number of the screen with the one on hear make sure they are the same.

No, the LCD screen is nearly impossible to remove from the old glass and re-afix to the new. A new screen with a new digitizer attached is much easier to install.

No, I didn't need a new back cover. In fact the only difference between this one and the original is Wh total. The dimensions are exactly the same.

It basically replaces the existing cover. After installing run silicone around edges.

No. The tabs to screw it down are different from the original screen. It leaves an gap in the bezel.

I didn't replace it yet. YouTube has a bunch of video clips how to replace the screen.

Take your screen off. It's not too difficult. Remove rubber pads and unscrew the tiny screws. Take out monitor and look at back. It should look identical to the replacement.

You do have to take the bezel off. I have never before done this and I watched a YouTube video once and replaced two screens very easily. The best advise j can give is to make sure you get the bezel good and hot before attempting to remove it from the old screen. I did this by putting it in front of a space heater for 15 mins. Worked like a charm.

Yes, the pre-installed screen protector is just a protective plastic film that has already been applied for you. If you wanted to change it, just peel it off and replace it.

This cover does not "replace" the existing back cover. It is a clear cover that goes around the existing back of the device. Also, there is no cover on the front of the device, only sides and back are covered.

No, that is a different one. This one is just clear. You have to look for the one that says it hides your screen

if you carefully feel along the edge of the face of the phone, you can peel back the old protective layer. you can also use a piece of clear packing tape to help pull the old protector off. use another piece of clear packing tape to clean off any residue before you apply the new screen protector.

I would say that it is not necessary. I replaced the screen just with the tools included in the package.

This was the easiest install i did. Take out the screws around edge of screen. They are under those black bubble tabes. Save them to re cover the screws. Pop off the black plastic housing around screen and you are at the screen to take it out and put in your new one. Also there is a video on youtube to replace it. Watch that step by step and that makes it even easier. Good luck! If you need more help let me know.

No it is just the faceplate that goes over the digitizer. This is glued to the actual screen. I would not recommend getting just the front faceplate because it is really difficult to remove the old one off the screen. The full digitizer with this part as well as the back screen is a lot easer to install, took me no more than 10 minutes.
