black devil-does the camera cover come apart/unscrew from the rear housing and how easy is it to remove the rear cover?

I havent taken my k800i apart but there seems to be no way of taking the lense cover off.. unless the lense cover is make of two parts and held together by a screw...

Well IMO, the lens cover does look far more fragile than the K750's. From the material (easily scratched) to the design. The design looks as though if the edge got caught on something (like a pocket), then one firm yank and there goes the lens cover.

thx for the photo m8 glad you all liked my "art work"

as far as i seen there is no freaking way of getting the cover of ... maybe if you brake it or smth ... thisbrings us to the question ... how did they get the cover inside

and i put my phone with the cover down (rather get scratches there than on the display) and when i'm home i put it on a bundle of sticky-notes (sticky side down )

Well i just closely examined the lens cover and i suspect that it's made from two different pieces. If you look carefully you'll realize that the material of the inner piece and the outer piece are not the same, so i suspect it's either stuck on, or attached by a screw of some sort. Also, what's the lens cover made out of? It doesn't feel like metal at all, well i left my K800 on the table in a pretty cold room, and when i went to get it, the parts of the K800 which were actually made of metal were pretty cold, whereas the lens cover was not cold at all. Any ideas as to what it's made of?

As far as I know, it's just pastic coated with a metallic paint.

That is exactly whatt i thought. There must be two pieces to the lense cover, has anyone taken the cover off their k800i yet? maybe if we did we can see how the lense cover is attached better...
