Screen dims when Griffin FlexGrip is on iTouch Purchased one at BestBuy today. Whenever the FlexGrip is on my iTouch the screen brightness dims to become almost invisible. A separate cheaper case does not cause the problem. Anyone else experience this or know the cause? I like the look and feel of the FlexGrip but will discard it if the problem can't be solved.

There is an "ambient light sensor" next to the camera, and this case has no opening to allow light in, causing the ipod to think it is in a dark room and dim the screen accordingly. Maybe you could look at a case that has the proper hole and try to poke a hole in your griffin case in that spot?

Just use a one-hole paper punch to make another hole 15mm to the right of the front camera hole. This exposes the ambient light sensor. Or you could turn off the auto brightness feature.

This version was designed for the first generation iPad: http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.asp?p=gb01553&d;=griffin-gb01553-flexgrip-skin-for-ipad---black-(gb01553-)I haven't seen where the GB35108 works for the first generation iPad.

This seems to be a common complaint about this screen protector. I too have a few small prismatic splotches on my screen that seem to move around depending on where the screen protector touches the iPad screen. Apparently the angle at which I use my iPad tends to minimize visibility of these spots, so they don't bother me. I do not know how to eliminate them.

I didn't have that problem. I suggest you contact the seller. I was impressed with their communication after receiving the product. They emailed me to make sure it met my satisfaction...and I hadn't even contacted them. But, my mom uses it strictly for a stylus. I like the netted material imbedded in the rubber, it seems to be more precise as a stylus than the plain rubber ones. Email the seller, I'm pretty sure they will rectify your issue.

as i understand an IPS panel does not show tailing or lightening when pressed on with a finger. This panel does not show any signs of either of these issues that would occur on a TN monitor when pressed on. Hope this helps you out.

I have bought many styluses. Because I often use the side of the tip, I need a stylus with a deeper tip so it won't scratch the screen of my iPad. This stylus is probably the least likely to scratch the screen of any I have bought. I do not have the problem you asked about. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry to hear that you are having problems with your pen. Mine has not scratched my iPad (3rd Gen) with or without the privacy screen. I can see how it would if it didn't have the clear disk attached to the tip, but with that in place, I have not had any trouble with it at all. I use Notability and I can change the width of the writing from fine to paintbrush-like strokes. I know there are other programs at the app store that may also serve your needs much like the one your student used (which sounds totally cool, btw). Best of luck.

Just and FYI for everyone out there who has a second generation itouch. The charging capability of any of the periphial docking devices that you have to play your itouch on are no longer supported by the second generation. The first generations are fine but a small programming change was made to the second generation that caused this to happen. So it's not the fault of the docking device you purchased- it's the Itouch itself. The only thing you can do is charge it using a Apple compatable charger but you won' t able to listen to it while charging Sorry.. I just got this news after purchasing my new itouch and calling the store where I bought it. Just and FYI for everyone out there who has a second generation itouch.

when you turn it on quickly go to settings then scroll down to display. tap on that and you should see brightness and turn off the automatic brightness. then adjust the slider bar to what you like. I would go more to the left because this feature is a battery saver, but in order to read whats on the screen your going to have to sacrifice some battery durability.

Yep, it scratches your screen, look for my review, you will see photos of what it did to my screen :). However, although it is the most recent review, amazon does not post it under "Most Recent Customer Reviews", so its hiden within the One star Reviews :).

Same here. For a while I managed to finagle it so I'd rubber band (yeah, it was huge) around the whole thing to hold the itouch in a specific spot and it would charge, otherwise, not. Now I can't seem to find that sweet spot any longer and it just won't charge. Too bad, too. I LOVE my Kicker. It sounds just perfect!!

Looks like you've already received an answer to this (just got back from extended vacation). I do want to add my praise to that of S Lopez, though. This screen protector is great at its job without affecting the touch sensitivity of the screen. Also, if you have any other questions, you'll find - as I did - that iSmooth is quick to respond. Five stars for their support team!

No rainbow effects like I had with the Otter Box. There are a series of small nubs on the inside of the case, the part that touches the screen. If I am looking at something white or very light, you can very barely see them. I don't find it to be a problem. I have not noticed any extra sensitivity or problem with brightness.

The best way to tell is where your digitizer hooks into the iPad. Some don't use clips and they use the double sided tape which in my opinion isn't as good unless you plan on breaking the screen again...then its a cakewalk to remove again. I'd go with a different one than this if possible.

It can affect things technically I suppose. The point that the pressure happens on the screen first shows up. If you are aware of it there is not a problem. You just can't rest on it really. I haven't had an issue with that. I think it reads fingertip and stylus better.

Yes. But in my case it isn't even and in the center of my screen there is an small area where the two touch and it looks like a drip. It has no negative effect on the touch screen performance but the image quality is slightly affected. The small area in the center of my screen where there is no air gap is brighter.

if you touch it, it toggles back and forth between OFF and the previously set brightness. If you hold it, it changes brightness. It will always be a little confusing to those not used to it.
