Just noticed that the clear lens cover to the rear camera on my tf201 is missing
I have put a piece of tape over it so dust does not get in there but has anyone heard of this before.
Does anyone know what ASUS will do about this.
Would I have to send it in just to get a new lens, can they send me one as it would be an easy fix
I will contact them just wanted to see if anyone has experienced this with this or any other tablet.
Thank You
Mine has just been sent in for the green camera problem and a few others. My lens cover was dented.. I'll let you know whether they replace it or not.
Got it back, the lens was not replaced. And camera quality seems to be far worse than before. Everything is quite blurry, and it seems that dust is on the lens.
hello all note 3 user there.. we know its a awesome device with an awesome design and camera is brilliant! but one thing that is annoying is that the back camera sticks out and doenst allow the phone to sit/sleep straight without touching the camera area or part (without cases or very think casing). anyone has DIY idea or any idea where to get the protector? last year when i bought a secondhand note 3 it has a small metal 'O' ring attached around the flash there and its good cause it help to lift the camera part up and it doesnt touch the lens when i put it on the table but i cant find that small metal 'O' ring anywhere..
cheers!

My rear camera isn't working properly anymore so I was just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem so if I can confirm the likely culprit. Whenever I use the rear camera the screen is mainly purple and pixelated and I can only just about see the background through it all.
The front (selfie) camera is fine so I'm just thinking about replacing the camera at the back but thought I'd ask around in case anyone knew of any other common problem it could be in case I was barking up the wrong tree.
I tried to upload a picture of what it looked like but couldn't manage it.
I've watched a couple of YouTube videos on how to replace it and I'm happy to have a go but if anyone's got any experience/advice on that too it would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
I had same problem two weeks ago. Suddently the rear camera gone to pink the frontal was good. After the initial panic, I've tried to search internet, on some forums was said to gently push around the rear lens and the camera will show something. Some one says that use this method pushed firmly around the ring and the camera was fixed, some others no.
In my case, pushing around the camera, initially worked for a couple of seconds, then the image was flickering with vertical green lines, noises, and interlaced "grid" grey scan lines like old videogames. then was hardly usable only pushing around the rim for about one minute for take a normal photo. here is the attachments of panic:silly:
I think the camera was damaged by too much overheat that unglued the backplate, and consequentially the use or some hit or light fall may had damaged the flex sensor or the placement lens on the motherboard. In fact in the previous months i had noticed the backplate was moving if poked with fingers on the edges. I mean gently pressed and the back plate was moving. Doing the pressure factory test, it was around 1020,3-1001Millibar on static and changed when pressed on screen or on the back. I had a dbrand skin on the back and due to the heat shrinked and became smaller. I think the overheat was caused by the firmware updates and some app that sucked away the battery in years. Upgrading from Lollipop, twice to MM, to Nougat, in years and then in the last time some flash to MM and then to Nougat again give it the final hit, especially the first time power up after flashing when you have to set everything from scratch.
I sent it in warranty repair, for camera damaged, added the request to swap battery due to duration (because on June the warranty ends ) and to check and fix the IP68 requirements, also noticing very overheat issues.
Now the pressure test is a solid fixed 999,01-999,03Millibar and the feel is more solid in general when handled. If you have luck when Sony repair it, the screen protector on the front if you have applied, won't be touched, only the back.
good luck
So did they just replace the camera module that is plugged in to the top at the back? (obviously apart from battery too).
Your post seems to suggest overheat which caused motherboard damage too.
Unless I've read it wrong you're suggesting swapping the camera will fix the problem.
I know I'd obviously need a new back cover too.

I cracked my camera's glass when I dropped the phone and now it doesn't take good pictures anymore, even with the glass completely removed. They come out blurry and can't seem to focus properly.
The front facing shooter works fine
what happened?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It might've been damaged. Even a small dot on the lens can do a lot of harm to the imags.
Hi!
So today i detached Dual Screen case to change it for normal one to put V60 in a tripod. For 15-20 min phone was recording timelapses in 4k and when i tried to change case again, sun made reflections on back cover and i saw this:

Photo 2
Photo 3
Photo 4
What the heck is that? It looks like whole right side just get about 0,1mm up and right now i think it's no more waterproof.
