Has anyone done one of these yet? The camera module in my K800i has died, I see replacements are available on eBay. I've stripped quite a few bits off my phone already (it is held together by clips mostly!). I can't see how to remove/reseat the little camera cube though.

If not, I'll be up for doing one. I have taken mine apart without breaking anything yet (the camera is already broken though...)

the metal plate under the screen is where the camera is connected.

try lifting the plate off with an old sim card or similar

Ah got it - it looked like it was soldered, so I didn't want to force it... Camera is definitely broken though.

Thanks for the info.
