I'm after a good macro lens for the pixel and don't fancy one of them ones that just clips on. Has anyone seen any? I can't seem to find them

I've scoured the interwebs/googled this to death to no avail, so i decided to ask here.
Would using two magnetic, camera phone lenses on the Evo 3D's cameras work. it seems no one's actually tried this.
I ask because, after watching a few GoPro 3D videos, i realized that GoPro cameras have a permanent wide-angle lens on it, and go curious as to whether it'd work on my phone as a less expensive solution.
I have one magnetic lens already which i use and love but i'd rather know it works before i spend the money. i don't understand the workings of stereoscopicy when using wide angle lense.
any help appreciated!
It would work as long as both lenses are identical. But I'd be nervous of bringing anything magnetic to any of my electronics. That's got a reputation of bad things... But maybe it's safe for a phone?

A lens that attaches magnetically, lol.
Lol i cant post a link because ima noob so ill just say that it's like i simplified camera lens that is smaller and made for cellohones. So instead of screwing it on like a regular camera, you stick a metal ring with adhesive around your phones camera and the lens has a magnet that sticks to this ring
I remember seeing something similar for the EVO 4G, and it worked pretty well.

Yes, it was a magnetic macro lens. It did wonders for the 4G.
Hello all, got a I9300 recently, and I couldn't help noticing how narrow the viewing angle is. Screen gets a tint (purple) as soon as I tilt it a little bit. Almost looks like the gorilla glass is at fault here. I dont know, is this common?
Thanks.

I am pretty sure your screenguard is at fault here.

The viewing angle is virtually 180 on mine
Pefect viewing angle here. Maybe it's your screenguard.

Viewing angle is fine over here. It's either your phone that's fked up or screen protector as some have mentioned already.

Viewing angle is fine here, nice 180 degrees.

Thanks for the response. I'm not using a screen protector. screen is naked. it's sort of like the problem described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1752847
The viewing angles are one of the main disadvantages of the Super AMOLED screen...

Yea, I came from a Samsung Vibrant, so maybe I'm just not used to it. It's not like a SUPER bad tint. Just a slight reflective glare. So it's pretty much normal for the Super AMOLED to act like this then?
Hi,
Is it possible to change the default main rear camera from the top one to the lower one (when held vertically)?
The clear plastic cover has developed a crack right over the top lens making photos blurry.
Can't afford to send it for replacement at the mo, but can't figure out if it's possible to switch the cameras instead...
Thx

Perhaps it would be easier to remove the plastic and rotate it 180 degrees so the cracked part is then on the bottom.

Yeh, methinks that rotating the glass is your best bet. Actually switching the cameras would require a considerable bit of coding

you may want to look @ ebay they have the replacement Camera Lens for like 5 bucks...usually with free shipping
I am not sure if this is just my unit or is it a general issue with the Mega 6.3
I have the i527 (at&t ver.). And in this post, I am using specifically about the front camera. The quality looks pretty decent in the camera app, but the taken photo is just so blurry. I tried taking a screen shot while in the camera app to compare, and it looks a lot better.
Anyone experiences the same issue? Is there any workaround to take better photo with the front camera?
Thanks

The "wide angle lens" is the regular lens, which obviously isn't as wide as the one on V30. The secondary lens is the telephoto one.

I'm so sorry if you didn't know that when you purchased it. It must be quite frustrating to you.
