The lens cover on my OP7T is all scratched up. There are several replacement options on eBay for under $10 but I have having a hard time finding any description how to do it without having to open up the entire case. Pointers? Thx

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.

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.
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
Thxs
I have got a cracked lens cover, I have removed it awaiting New cover from eBay however without the lens cover on the camera does not focus on distance objects only close up. Could this be due to having no lens cover or is the camera broken. Any advice on what action I should take to get it repaired?
Replace the lens and all will be good. Be careful not to get any dust trapped in there.

Excellent, any advice on lens cover. Currently ordered cheap one from China via eBay
Buy a tech21 case and make sure the lens is the right way round before attempting to permanently attach it.

Is it obvious which is the right way or not
