Is anyone know about the links where back camera glasses are selling separately (not battery cover)

Hi, I dropped the tytn to the floor, which usually doesn't affect it, but this time the plastic lens cracked. Which I guess the the warranty doesn't cover.
Any brilliant ideas on how to fix this?
I've buyed only Touch Screen lens
and not the entire display, I've open the PDA and changed the broken one.
It costs only 15 $. The only problem for you is the Warranty.
Mine broke as well. I took a new CD or DVD case and made a new one. Since it is polycarbonate it won't brake so far but scratch sensitive
edit: it was the rear camera but it should also work on the front cam
Where did you buy a new lens? How did you make a new one?
Just cut it out from a CD case and and file it to a round form.
Or in other words, is the lens cover scratch resistant? I ask this because I had the unfortunate case of finding out the hard way - within just a couple of weeks of getting my S2 that the cover wasn't Gorilla Glass.
So if the N4's lens cover isn't Gorilla, then could someone recommend a scratch guard please? Or maybe a scratch guard for the entire back which also protects the camera lens?
This is just speculation because I doubt you could ever get the official answer, but I doubt it is gorilla glass. It is definitely not part of the back glass but an inset piece. Gorilla glass is usually used more for the strength rather than it's moderate scratch resistance so I doubt that they went to the trouble. It is also slightly lower than the surrounding surface which would naturally help prevent scratching. I don't know of any commercially available back protectors that would cover the lens, but if you are that concerned about it just get one of the generic screen protectors from walmart and a pair of scissors and make your own.
I've never damaged the lens to where it affected any of my phones and I've had a lot all the way to the g1.

Nexux 4 Camera LENS - NEED PART HELP
Sorry for digging up an older post but lets say hypothetically you broke your camera lens for the Nexus 4 (but everything else is ok) camera, back etc... any way i can find a new one? I've been looking and haven't been successful yet...
This is the only post I've seen that even talks about the fact that it appears to be a separate piece... it's not part of your back glass and it's "recessed" inside - nestled between the back and the camera itself... a little square piece...

Haven't found anyone selling just the lens cover, but you could buy the whole camera module for ~ $10. If you're looking for just the piece of glass between the camera and the back, then you'd have to buy the whole glass back unfortunately.. might be cheaper to just cut a bit of a clear screen protector and use it.
So, dropped my Note 3. Visual inspection it looked fine, but the lens is definitely broken on the camera itself (Not on the body of the phone) and the photos look like there is a spider on the phone.
I looked up the camera for the phone, doesnt seem overly expensive. How hard to replace is this? How likely am I to destroy the phone while trying to fix this?
It is a relatively easy fix. I had the same issue with my camera an a $12 replacement and disassembling/replace/reassembling of the phone did the trick.
Good luck!
Cheers,
B.D.

Do you mean the rear facing camera or front? The front facing camera would require a new screen glass which is NOT an easy fix. The rear facing camera would be much easier. You need to remove all the back cover screws then pry up lightly with the S-Pen to pop the cover up. There is one place by the power button that needs to be pried up with something like a guitar pick. once the cover is off you will need to bend the retaining tabs of the lens and it comes right off. When you say "inner lens" I'm not sure what you mean. I doubt you actually cracked the lens of the camera either front or rear but once the back cover is off, both of these are easily removed. A replacement of either on can be found on eBay for cheap.

The picture below shows the tabs which need to be bent up to replace the rear facing camera lens. the tabs are under the green tape

Does anyone know where I can buy another back camera lens? The glass broke and damaged the lens so I need to replace both things.
As we all know, the graphite model chips on the back revealing white specs. Was thinking about changing the rear housing to a different color to fix the chipping and the big dents in the side of the phone. I need one with both rear camera glass and bottom cover While I'm in there, can I replace the battery since it drains like crazy? Please leave links to anything you find. Don't know which is the best battery to replace or the best option for rear housing replacement. I am also on Nougat 7.1.1 Thank you!
