Hi Folks,
Need your advice.
Discovered that my camera lens was all cracked up and glass was in tiny bits. However I can still take pictures.So it looks like it is an exterior problem.I now have a tape over the smashed bits and will remove when I need to take a picture. Does anyone know where I can get it repaired? I have checked with 2 vendors in Chaddy and they quoted $100 for the half hr job(they will need to order the parts first) while Samsung says it's $150 and will take a couple of days. Alternatively, having seen repair videos online,has anyone had a similar problem,ordered the parts online(about $5 on ebay/Amazon) and repaired it themselves? Thank you.

It was in a hard case by move.but….
Was it though? Was there a covering over the camera lens?
That was the reply to the 2nd question. It's hard to prove physical damage just appeared there.
Why don't you think warranty covers broken screens? I think you need to read up on what warranty is.
Great stuff, though in the OP it seems like he already went to Samsung and said it would cost $150. It doesn't hurt to try to get it fixed for free, unless there is an inspection fee.

Thanks folks.At Optus;my provider;the guy told me it's a pretty common problem due to design flaw. Just my luck I suppose.I'll try Samsung see what they'll say. Thank you.
So many people not taking care of their phones. If i was you, I'd bite the bullet and go to Samsung. Put your darn phone in a case.
