Hi exists any way of remove, replace the len of the camera and put other? because my len is scratched and i dont know what to do!!
Ty
firstly: what device are you using?
i know you are using xperia ion because you stated that in another question
possible but my question to you:
are you good enough of a user to actually replace the lens itself?
there is a very detailed unveiling of the xperia internals that was created near the beginning of this device
but will you risk buying the separate lens and replacing it? or will you send it to the sony and if they mess up you get a new phone ?
(not doubting your skills or anything, simply asking you to rethink your process)

the thread i was talking about in case you do wish to do it yourself but you need to find the exact lens yourself ( too lazy too find it for you xD)

I had this problem myself and i fixed it using a lens from another phone(I wasn't using my N95 so i took it from that one), the best solution is to buy the MIDDLE plate(it can be seen on the link 424aca posted, picture 4) The middle plate has the lens, they don't sell them separately(I looked, couldn't find it). The process itself is very easy, you can follow the ion dissasembly video somebody posted(look it up). All you need is torx t5(or t6 cant remember exactly) and phillips screwdrivers, plus a prying tool(I used an old credit card) to remove the top and bottom covers and remove the back plate. The middle plate has several screws you need to take out before removing.

The back cover doesn't have the plastic lens, the middle plate does, and that is what got scratched. you can test it yourself, remove the back and middle plates and take a picture, if you get a clear image then the plastic lens on the middle plate is the one that's scratched.

ok after more than an hour of taking pictures and editing im finally ready to upload them and be done with this. geeze you cooks must have some patience! my hats off to ya...so here we go...hope this helps atleast one person out there to make it worth my time.
ok to start we are going to need a t6 screwdriver, a prying tool a percision phillips screwdriver. (I ADVISE YOU USE A ANTI-STATIC WRISTBAND TOO)

so flip your dash over, remove the battery cover, take the battery out, and set off to the side. locate the rubber pieces from the picture below and remove them with your prying tool.
this next part is VERY important. note the void sticker over the top of the right screw. by opening your case you void any warrenty that may be active. just use you t6 to remove both of the screw (note they are silver)
now we only have four more screws to remove to get the back panel off, they are circled in red below, use your t6 again here. these screws are black
with all the screws out of the back panel you now need to take your prying tool and put in between the back panel and the chrome piece on the dash, if this is your first time it will be tight. dont be afraid to use a little force. (on the real tight spots is where it latches, that where you need to pry)
now comes the part i found a little different between my two dash's. the one made in china is the one i used in this guide (i have included a picture of the other one to show the differences). go ahead and remove the back panel. on my china dash the wire to the battery thing was NOT connected to the back panel and on my other dash it WAS connected to the back panel.
i didnt circle it but in the second picture you can see a wire going to the back panel and in the first picture you dont see that. in the next step you can see it nice and snug under the connector.
now locate the connection from the picture below and lift it out of the socket. easy to do just use your nail on the end and lift up.
the circled red connector below holds that cabel on, just use your nails and lift straight up on this and set it off to the side. i sat it in the spot on the back panel that it was on with my other dash
with thoes done we move on to the next spot, with again is circled in red below. use your prying tool, as pictured, to open the latch up.
here i used my nails and removed the "cable" by using the two tiny tabs on the side
the next thing we need to disconnect is below. again use your prying tool to open the latch like you did before.
once you have it open use remove the "cable" by using the circled tab
now the we almost have the mobo off. soo use the t6 to remove the screw, this is also a silver screw but, as noted, their is a difference in size.
the last thing holding the mobo on is two clips, and guess what? their pictured below...
\
i just used my nail to hold one back a little and lifted the mobo out and set it aside. ( the picture shows the "front" of it)
the antenna just lifts off, but you dont need to remove it
and this is what you should see now
were now ready to remove that chrome piece, note that the two circled "cables" go THROUGH the chrome piece.
i used the prying tool to remove the chrome piece, it came off really easy. hopefully it does the same for you
and heres a picture showing the "cables" that go through the chrome piece
set the chrome piece off to the side, and were almost done here
now its time to remove that lcd, which is so easly broken for most people. see the circled peice on the back? that grounds it out, just peel it off. and remove the lcd. i just put my hand over it and flipped the phone over. it came right out and i set it off to the side
now we can see the finish line
their are 3 screws to remove to get the keyboard pcb board off. use a percision phillips screwdriver (the one pictured in my first post is just a small phillips, it worked just fine)
set it off to the side and the keypads will just fall out if you turn the phone over
and thats it. i did not include how to remove the jogger bar, i have not done soo, no need to. if you do please take pictures to add to the guide.
please let me know what you think. i have included all the pictures in a zip file, they are a little better quality.
Thanks xDD

I'm so tempted on jumping on these for our phones, but I'm a little concerned with the size of the ring inside if it'll clear our squared glass lens cover.
http://photojojo.com/store/awesomeness/cell-phone-lenses/
From what I see I guess the ring on one side has a double sided tape? And the other side is magnetic.
Is there anyone out there that can measure in mm's and see if it'll clear our squared glass lens protector cover?
The diameters of the ring are 13.06mm (outer) and 9.38mm (inner)

i think our camera is way off to the edge... where the magnetic ring might not be able to fit properly....
but i could be wrong... since i'm just judging by the pics alone....not too sure.... has anyone tried this?
someone please test this out
i want that!!
If anything we benefit from the semi-flatter corner than the iPhone 3G. Look at these pics on this auction.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Fish-Eye-Lens-H...Hero-HD-mini-/280518921489?pt=PDA_Accessories
i might just have to get the wide angle/macro one!
Doing a quick measurement, I'm getting 12.5mm diagnal measurement on the lens opening on teh case. It is also 10.5mm x 10.5mm.
So, this will fit on just fine, but you won't be able to remove the battery cover (due to the ring sticking to the corners of the lens housing).
Damn that stinks, but I'm sure a little sandpaper can remove the adhesive around those corners so
i'm still willing to try it out.

Yep, some minor adjustments to the adhesive on the ring and it would work. Just get an Xacto knife and cut the corners.
I'd get a piece of thick paper...make an identical lens cover with it...then mock it up to the lens ring..and I'll then know where to cut.

Xacto knife, sandpaper will be too messy of a job and you'll have the possibility of messing it up.
Now I'm wondering if its going to be an issue to keep the T-Mobile black rubber phone case on with the ring installed.
There is a deal extreme 15mm lens which has really good corner quality. There is even a comparison video on youtube for it. It is a couple of bucks cheaper than the one you linked to.

Here you go. Comparison videos in the customer video section: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.39814
Just ordered the fisheye from the link above. The 15mm ring will surpass the cam lens. What I'll probably do is use the extra back cover purple case and paste on the ring. So when I dont want to use it I can leave it home and use my standard blue battery case with my Tmobile rubber case. I'll post updates soon!
Would this work for a MyTouch 4G? If you've looked at it, you;ll see around the lens its kind of beveled, and the battery door would probably get stuck with the magnet they want you to put on it... also another thing to think about, magnets do damage hard drives, would it damage sd cards?

Would not want to open mine up! either by force or with a tool! but nice to know it can be done if absolutely necessary!! Nice post thanks
I tried to open a faulty one i got from eBay, after removing the back case its such a pain to even remove the motherboard, and even harder to put it back
+when re-assembling you have to plug connectors to both sides of the motherboard
Oh and if anybody opens it up...as soon as you open the back case, the power button and volume button will fall out. Dont loose them! (Also note the power button has a certain orientation)

i'm thinking of switching covers from black to a white one.
a couple of questions;
1) The camera lens glass, is that sticking out of the ring? or is the ring around the glass higher than the glass? (Sorry, i know exactly how to explain this in dutch, not in english)
At the moment my camera-lens glass is sticking out a little bit and it allready is getting scratched up.
2) Do you get the volume / power buttons with the new cover or do you have to re-use the old buttons?

Open it again. At this point no one here can tell you what exactly went wrong. May be you forgot to remove the plastic peel that comes with the new lenses. By the way, why did you do it all yourself ? HTC could have replaced it for no charge ! All I suggest is to open the device again, and check whether you removed the plastic peel for both the lenses. Without closing the rear housing/panel, launch the camera app and check whether the issue persists. 220 fahrenheit is okay for a short timeframe. Can you send some snaps of your device along with the camera module ? It would be helpful to the people who visit the thread. After all this fails, try flashing the stock rom if you're running a custom rom. :good:

Open it again. At this point no one here can tell you what exactly went wrong. May be you forgot to remove the plastic peel that comes with the new lenses.

HTC said since i HTC dev unlocked no go and it would cost 130+ and i would have my soff removed. So i said screw that and got the housing and the grills. I am pretty sure the plastic was removed as the camera app now shutters and glitches out as it never did that before and i doubt a plastic color lense would cause that. I will detail pics when i crack it open again to check if i just might ave pulled back the cameras connection cable just looked on ebay 25 bucks for a new oem i may snag it. The front cam works fine i just should have used a micro cloth to polish the old one vs dremel ha my lesson
