I have the screen phone apart but just realized it did not come with the plastic casing around the screen. How do I separate the plastic casing?

Hi, if your case is not broken at any part, you don't need nothing more to install it.tip: the case sold here, do not fit quite well.

Use spudger tool to carefully port apart. Check you tube, very helpful instructional videos....

It's just held on with a thin layer of adhesive. I used a razor blade with no problems. Be sure that you are not doing it over your bed. A shoe box works well for catching glass slivers. Everything about it was straight forward and simple. Make sure everything is working properly before gluing it back together. I used a clear indoor/outdoor window caulking rated for ten years or 50 years or something crazy like that.

It's glued on with 3M tape, and can be pryed off, very carefully working your way around. Ther are some good videos on you tube that show this process.

The screen protector that comes with the case is attached to a piece of molded plastic that fits into the underframe of the case. The rubber outerframe then gets put on and hooks into the plastic underframe. The piece that has the screen protector looks like it can be removed and any standard screen protector film can be used. It doesnt look to me like there would be any noticeable gap if you dont use the screen protector that comes with the case.

look for small square designs on the sides. Pull those apart. After placing the phone inside snap those squares back together.

You must replace the glass and digitizer, since they are glued and there's no way you can detach one from other... You must buy the kit with the screen and digitizer.... Hope it helps

I do not have any specific way of taking it off of my phone. Not very user friendly in that respect, lol. Sorry, wish I could be of more help.

Take finger and pull two pieces apart put your phone in case and put rubber piece over it

same as without the case, just touch the screen.... I love the case. I was against getting a case for a year, but am glad I made the purchase now.

do the exact opposite order for how you put it on. unsnap the screen cover from each of the little half circle clip things that hook around the edges. then the rubber part should come off. its pretty tough but just be careful and it should be fine. then the hard plastic main part is last to come off. its the toughest part. good luck, hope this helps!

Is the screen built into the casing or added first? I have a ultra-thin glass screen protector that I'd like to keep on my phone. Thoughts?

If it is your first time trying to get it out, this is fairly normal. The plastic has not been stretched as much so it will be harder to take out. Start on the left side of the screen at the corners and push down on it to seep rate it from the case. It might take a little bit of work to get it out but just go for it. If you can't get it out and you have taken it out before I would suggest getting some tools to pry it out.

the screen cover comes with case as a separate piece. it is a plastic film.

I dont know what piece of plastic you are referring to. My cases came in a single box. There may have been paper labels (perforated) to make labels and slide into the opening at the top of each sleeve.

I just did it, but it was not obvious. The people who say to remove the silicone cover first are right. The key is that you have to realize that the silicone cover is one big piece -- I kept trying to find a seam to separate it. Instead, hold the case as if you were looking at the phone, and bend back the silicone cover at the corners (away from you). Do that on all 4 corners of the screen -- you'll need to stretch it a bit, but it will come off. Then, you'll just have the hard inner case, which is opened by popping the 2 tabs on the side and the 1 at the top.

I removed the plastic screen saver on the case. My son is the lucky owner of the Samsung Tab 3 and it works good. The case is a heavy duty.It really protects the unit.It is the best on the market in my opininon

You need to pull off the harder rubber casing, then you open the hard plastic case that's snapped together. Make sure you have your phone wiped off as well as the inside screen protector so there's nothing stuck between the otterbox and the screen.

You will need a separate screen protector. There is nothing that covers the screen.
