[Q]How to clean under the camera's glass? - HTC Desire X

Hello!
You know, we can't remove the glass which is before the camera lens. But in my phone, it looks like, it gets dusted under this glass. But I can't remove and clean it up. Can I clean it in home, or I need to take it to a service?

Had a suggestion, but wasn't correct. So erased my answer... Sorry!

Screen

Hi,
The screen from my X10 has a scratch, what is really ugly i personally think.
Can i simply remove it and replace it with a new one?

Sure you can, but don't you have a screen protector on it? Even the stock unit shipped from SE has a protector applied.
If not it might be worth trying to buff the scratch out.
Okey, so how can i buff it out?
Or otherwise, where can I get a new screen. Trough the official channels of SE?
hi guys, i do have the same problem.. people have been saying there is a screen protector applied on the x10 since it was done from the factory.. however, is kinda hard to remove the 'screen protector' applied by SE. I can see from the edges there should really be a protector, but I just couldnt remove it. please help
SE did a really good job placing the screen protector film. It's nearly undetectable. Simply pry open one of the edges and get it open. It is hard at first, but you'll get it open.
I guess you need to use some sharp thing to pull it off from one of its edges. After that, it will be easy to remove it the whole way.

disassemble camera?

Okay, I'm not sure what or how but I've somehow got something (actually several somethings) inside the lens of my Titan. Whatever it is shows up on all my photos. It's not on the outside of the lens so it must be something on the inside. At least one or two of the spots showed up within a couple of days of me getting the phone but then they went away. Now they're back and brought some friends. I can only assume that it's something underneath the external lens cover. I could try to RMA my phone but then I would lose my Chevron unlock with no way to recover my token or get a new one. :-(
I was thinking about removing the lens cover and seeing if I can clean it out that way. Unless anyone has better suggestions. I will try to update this with a picture of what I'm seeing.

watch a video on taking apart an HTC Sensation XL which is the Titan's 'roid cousin. That camera cover is all one piece under the first layer of covers. Once that's removed you could see what is between the window and the lens. I'd start by blowing with canned air.

Its not clear...
See another example, white is kind of glowing....
Does the lens have any noticeable damage to it? I'm not really sure if condensation can form on the inside of a phone's camera lens, but that's almost what these pictures look like.
Hi, the problem with you phone's camera is a lens error. Since the lens protrudes out of the phone, it is prone to getting scratches and very foggy. Think of it like your car head lights. This has happened to my phone as well. What you are supposed to do is:
-take a wet clothe
-wet the lens a bit
- apply toothpaste onto the lens with a Q-tip
- and wipe away with either a Q-tip or soft cloth
It won't damage your phone's lens, just don't apply too much pressure. Make sure you do this multiple times! I hope this helps! It cleared a good amount of my scratches and the picture quality is exactly the way it was when I first got the phone. Good Luck!
Try putting toothpaste on the lense and rub the tooth paste off
I too have the same problem, I have cleaned the lens with toothpaste and significantly improved the quality. Thank you guys.

Thanks guys!
I used toothpaste, camera is back to normal
Hi, I have this problem to
Do I have to rub the toothpaste or just remove it with a cloth (without rubbing it)?
Also do I have to clean with water after all that?
The same issue with my lens camera too... I'll give a try with toothpaste ...

Rear Camera Not Focusing

Hey everyone! 'Im new to this site so i thought i might try and ask a few questions. Last Tuesday my rear camera had shattered so i was googling and you-tubing around ways to fix it, how much it would cost... etc. Anyway I decided to fix my own camera because it was so simple but .. even after I've removed the shattered glass and the adhesive, my camera lens will not focus at all, with or without the glass lens. Everything looks blurry, even when i zoom in. I've tried to clean it very carefully with alcohol and a Q-tip but i just cant figure out what the issue is?
Any Suggestions? Thoughts? is it ruined? ​

I actually shattered mine too but never messed with it since it's not effecting the camera quality even tho it's completely shattered with a hole in it.
Any chance there's moisture behind the lenses?
Hmm
I dont think theres any liquid behind the lens. when it shatters i placed tape over it so the pieces wouldnt cut me or move anywhere..... i even carefully cleaned it with alcohol and a Q-tip. Ive read in many places to clear the cache for the camera app but nothings helping... i think maybe its just time to let the s 5 go lol........

Replacement Camera
I guess the only option available is Moto Service Centre. They replace genuine parts, but price is little high.

So why the genuine glass cover got scratches? I have personally ordered replacement glass from Amazon.in for about Rs. 400 and it is much better than stock glass.
If you want to spend more like Rs. 1200-1500 go for a service centre repair.
This one should fit you right

Cleaning glass with petrol with a bit rough cloth will solve the purpose easily....I did for mine....
It actually cleans the oleophobic coating...
Hello everyone,
I had the same problem of blurry camera it was caused due to scratches on the oleophobic coating on the camera lens.
I would not recommend you to replace lens (if u want u can get it on Amazon for around 200-250rs in India) as replacement lens might have the same problem of scratches after some time.
Instead I had used rust removal paste to get rid of scratches. After using it my camera is Crystal clear. Before that I had tried using pepsodent toothpaste it didn't work. I even tried sharp object to scrape the coating it didn't work. So the best solution to the problem is to use rust removal paste with tissue paper or cloth to rub over the lens within one minute all scratches disappear.
Hit the thanks if my solution worked for u.

You can also use metal polish(grainier) or car polish.
