| Replacing iPhone 4 camera lens
Need to replace my scratched up camera lens. Google said there are replacements on ebay and that it's easy enough to diy. Anyone do it before?

so.. google told you how to replace a camera lens on an apple device
just a though, if you have never done these sorts of things, i would suggest you take it to a shop and pay a bit more and be hassle free... if you make things worse, it may end up costing you even more

Best thing to do is YouTube the disassembly, make sure you have the tools available before you start and go from there...

or you can upgrade to the iphone 5. if you see a flare in your picture when there is an out of sight light source in the background, "you're just holding it wrong"
I suggest searching the tutorial on youtube too, you can find a lot of shit on youtube these days.

Would any old place at Crystal mall be able to do it for me?
