Hi
Does somebody know, where could I find replacement battery cover, because mine is badly scratched ?
Also same question for camera lens cover, my pictures are very fuzzy and blurred because of damaged cover lens. Does anybody know if third party phone makers e.g. Meizu, Xiaomi, etc. uses same camera protective glass lens ?
Thanks
I was trying to search battery cover too, but unfortunately, i found nothing. Maybe there is something on ebay, but i dont think so
I've seen the same camera glass design on some Fly model. Which is no surprise cause Wileyfox is a Fly's subbrand.

Is it possible to replace this part and is there anyone that would have a good one? Mine is pretty scratched up from general wear.
thanks,

I assume you are talking about a camera on the back of the phone? If so:
Are you talking about the lens on the back cover, or are you refering to the lens on the camera itself, under the back cover?
One thing you can do, and I would suggest doing so, is removing the lens cover that is part of the back cover of the phone. One less piece of plastic in the path of the light, and it will also remove the scratches. I have had mine like this for 6 months of heavy use (I've got two kids) and the lens cover on the lens itself doesn't have any damage.
I assume the piece of glass exposed on the back of the phone is not the actual lens and i just a glass cover. Is it possible to replace this? And is there any good cover to protect it? I just noticed there's already several scratches on the glass. Was wondering if i could easily replace it and also if there was something i could do to protect in the future.
I'd prefer not getting a whole case if possible.
I believe it is a plastic cover, and I have seen replacment ones for sale on the internet, they are a plastic circle with a black ring printed on it.
I believe the price was somewhat high for what it is, like $15-20.
thanks, i think i found it:

Mines broke and it's glass not plastic. I think the replacements are plastic.
Sent while sitting on the toilet.
I read somewhere that you can go somewhere that processes camera film and get some used disposable cameras for free, and that the lenses from those will fit perfect on the evo. There was a wright up on it i think here at xda.
I've found that my Desire camera photos always appear hazy, or to have a sort of "halo" around them when they're taken - certainly not nearly as sharp as they should be for a 5MP camera.
Has anyone else had this problem and is there a solution?
It's because the lens cover in the back case is not very good and is distorting the view.
If you take the back off the phone and take a few shots, you will see they are much clearer.
There's actually a thread about this:

I pierced my lense cover out of the back cover as it seems many others have done and now get amazing images. Obviously not everyone would like to do that so you can always try and clean the lense on the back cover with a cotton bud and lense cleaning solution Seems like a design fault as that plastic lense cover gets filthy very quickly and ruins images.
Yeah after watching that video I tried taking a picture with the battery cover off and the clarity was brilliant!
Have you noticed any dust, etc. problems with the lens cover off?
had my lens cover off for 6 months or so, need to take the cover off to wipe off the dust occasionally but no scratches - seems the glass on the sensor is much harder than that on the cover.
best thing i ever did, just pressed out of battery cover in 2 seconds.

Obviously dust gets there, but it can be easily sorted out with a good blow and a bit of cloth.
I pierced mine out too an replaced it with a saphire glass which is really hard and resistant. No scratches until now (5 months) and the camera pics are like the ones you take with the cover off.
The only disadvantage is that you have to order it in the United Kingdom and pay for the shipping.
I found one also on Amazon, otherwise search on Google for Edmund Optics, they sell them.

Hi all,
I'm into photography and the lens is one of the most precious component in my galaxy note.
Has anyone came across a case/battery case/add-on that has a lens cover? I'm particulary after a sliding lens cover. I don't really want to put screen protector in front of the lens as it'll affect photo quality.
If you've seen any.. please provide links.. thanks
FYI, I've googled.. with no luck
cheers
Lens protector
Here's my solution. Might not be the prettiest. If you find a circular piece of rubbery sticker or something simmilar it might be even better. Doesn't even need to be this thick. Doesn't even need to be out of rubber. I just like the extra friction when I lay my phone on the desk.
I hated the idea, that the phone rests on the lens when I put it down.
What do you think?
I found similar solution like @vgergo but you dont need to destroy battery cover. I ordered leather back battery cover from ebay, it is a bit ticker than original one and it provides arround 1mm edge arround lens so it is protected when putting your phone down. Back is nice finnished and it fits as it should so I can reccomend it.
Hi ive just picked up a HOX for a good price but its a bit marked up and the camera lens is a bit marked too
Just a few questions
Was wondering how easy is it to replace the housing or should i just get a case for it and save myself the hassle
Also is it possible to remove the camera lens cover without taking it apart?
If i replace the housing does anyone know where i can source a genuine housing here in the uk?
And can someone recommend a screen cover that would be good at covering up a few scratches
