I just put on a martin fields screen and i kinda put it a little too high, as in i tucked a little but under the top part of the phone, it seems stuck on now so i cant remove it, there is only a little part on the bottom which isnt covered, if i hold it the only parts that are not covered at a little on the edges of the battery and reception, its not a problem but will the case come off? I read that its reusable, but will the glue which is currently on there make a mark on the screen?, it seemed very sticky.

You can take it off, but be carefull you don't bent it to much otherwise there will be a wrinkle in the protector and that's very anoying.
After you pulled it off, you better take some tape and put that on the back of the protector and on the screen, I do that to prevent dust sticking on. Afer pulling it off you can put the protector on.

Good luck

there's no glue in there, it's using static electricity to cling to the screen.

You can use the back of your stylus to lift the edge of the screen protector. Once it's lifted, the whole thing will pop out easily.

Have 3m tape ready (it's the best way to clean the screen and the protector).

Have running water nearby - and this will reduce the amount of dust in the air.

use the 3m tape a few times on both units, you can even dip the screen protector in a glass of water. After taking it out, do not wipe it off, let the water evaporate (while holding it vertically). Then, you can use the 3m tape to get rid of any dust that's still there.

Good luck, it's not an easy task to put it in perfectly.
