Camera Lens Scratched - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I used to take some really clean phone camera pictures, but lately, they've all been really fuzzy. I looked at the lens, and it's scratched up pretty badly. Has this happened to anyone else's? Is there any way to repair it?

Problem with camera lens cover

Whenever I take photos with my desire, they come out a little blurry. Yesterday I tired it without the back case of the phone on and its much sharper! No matter how much I clean the lens cover it always appears smudged!
Does anyone find the same, and is there any way round/to clean it?

Is it me, or is camera quality really bad?

I just got a HTC Touch Pro 2 (Sprint) and really love it, but one thing that bothers me is the camera.
When I try to take pictures, the picture is VERY blurry and grainy, am I doing something wrong? I tried all of the resolutions and they are all the same. Not to mention, the camera kind of lags when I'm trying to take a picture...
Any suggestions?
Gotta have good lighting ...

Ive noticed sometimes if you take off the back cover and clean the lens on both the back piece and the acctual camera it can make a huge difference. I dont know how long youve had it but if its been awhile, that might help...
The camera is not too good. However it does take decent picuteres if you makesure the lens cover is clean on the outside and inside. some people have suggested removing the plastic piece altogether. there are a whole bunch of threads about it.
What you describe is bad background light. You have some light profiles, so try them. The camera doesnt have much resolution, flash light is absent, but still its more sensible than a nokia from that era.
The lens cover on the back will get scratched and it really makes for some bad pix.
I have a post about this a long while back.
But anyways, take battery cover off and try to take a pic and see how it looks. If you see a improvement buy a new battery cover. Or just the lens cover out of the battery cover. That's what I usually end up doing on all my phones. Sure the real camera lens may gets dust but its glass and its reccessed enough to not get scratched.
Try this and report back

I agree.. My phone used to take pretty decent pictures.. It seems like the more
I have tweeked my .reg files the worse it has gotten over time. I tell the hubby

[Q] Camera lens "glass" scratched!!

The problem I'm having is a scratched camera lens which causes excessive amount of glare on photos and I was wondering if anyone else has this problem and if it is possible to replace the lens.
Hi there, yea I have the same problem, scratched my camera lens when cleaning. It seems there was something sharp on the cloth, now my photos look a bit worse and that scratch added more noise, but I think you should take your mobile to service center it's the only way to remove it safely. Hope I helped.

Front Camera is blurry.

I think its got a lot of dust and dirt in it. I had a small lift on my speaker grill from day 1 of my purchase and didnt really care, but I think its been accumulating a lot of dust on my front facing camera. Its made it really blurry.
Does anyone know a way to clean the camera? I'm guessing the grill has to come off and then it'd be easy. But I don't know how to open to grill without damaging the phone or putting the grill back without making it even more loose than it should...
It's been found that our cameras have a thin film across them that becomes dirty and scratched and makes it blurry. I had this on both front and back. Solution I found is to put a drop of water very carefully on the camera lense and rub it with the corner of a credit card, just a little pressure will do it. I'll pull that film off and your camera will be as clear as the day you bought it. I haven't had any blurry issues since I did it about 8 months ago.
i had the same issue with the rear camera so i just used some glass cleaner and now the pictures come out nice and clear

How to fix my rear camera lens

I just tried taking a picture and the screen was all cloudy. Then looked and saw that the lens was cracked.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I have my doubts about buying things off of eBay, BUT that said replacement glass (if the sensor is all fine and good) is only $2.50 so it's worth a shot.
All you should really need is a heat gun to remove the existing glass, but I've never done anything like this before.
