Fixing a scratched lens with a floppy disk

[ed728i]

this is the best solution !! get another glass and it will just scratch again so just wasting money :/ the slider go's no where near the actual lens when the glass has been removed so just keep dust free, i.e blowing dust out each time. and it will take perfect pics :) this will not destroy the mechanism at all, just make sure the spring in the slider go's into the slide guide and there no need for the white plastic if your phone is black like mine !! works perfect :) 5 stars

ya, i know, i was saying that if ever you left the cover opened, it wont scratch the glass but instead it will scratch directly on the camera which is not changeable or will cost more than changing the casing...

ok, thinx for you reply, you are really generous...

please do not take my comments as an insult. ok. thanks bro...

@MasterBoy392 I only did this temporarily until I was able to get a replacement part.

[MasterBoy392]

thunk that it may scratch the camera directly...

i don't think its a clever idea :))

[qrpkgrl]

@MasterBoy392 no, there is a couple of millimeters between the camera lens and the lens cover

I wasnt going to do this, but thank you very much for the advice aserta! I didnt know about the fixed cover

[aserta]

um...it's not the lens, rather the plastic cover.

i like floppy's!

[gazzanoemanuel]

but you took out the dust protection of the lens, how do you do when the lens gets full of dust?

[aserta]

@gazzanoemanuel never do this, you will destroy the mechanism inside the camera. the solution is to buy the fixed camera cover slide. it's cheaper than paying to replace a camera.

@qrpkgrl hmmm, now i have understand :)

thats a good idea though !!

Hey Mate wasup... It would be much better if somehow the complete portion of the black thing is covered by the floppy plastic. but it might use some precise cutting for that. what u think?

[sazasnet]

@vaqar001 i also wonder it would look better that way..

[qrpkgrl]

@sazasnet this was temporary - I eventually ordered the a new lens cover. Just sharing a clever mod.
