ok well some of you might know my K800i broke. it was sent to the service centre and now that i have it back (unrepaired) i've notice a problem with the camera it seems. please bare with the photo's its quite hard to make out but i'll try to explain best i can... it seems as the shutter in the camera is shut?
ok this is what the other K800i looks like. note you can clearly see the lense of the camera.
and heres mine. it appears blocked?
and together. the "broken" 1 is on the left.
please let me know what you think. i dont think this is right atal. i appriciate any feed back.
again sorry or the poor quality

it does seems unusual to me.. it's like there's something that blocked the lense.. can you see anything on the screen when you ready to shoot ? say.. an object that you want to take.. do you?

A friend dropped a 6 kilo steel bar on his K800(3ft drop) a fortnight ago.....trashed the screen, but I noticed during testing that he had something which had 'slid' over the camera lens, a thin sheet like yours..........found it moved if I tapped phone in different directions, also found it fouled the lens cover if I moved it certain directions.......
......really needed stripping, but he sent it back for replacement.........
......amazing that the phone even worked after a beating like that tho', apart from the screen/lens, all fine.....

I have noticed that there is a shutter on the K800i, it normally only operates when the flash operates.
If that shutter is closed I presume that all pictures are coming out black. If this is the case then send it back again to be repaired.

i cant see any thing on the screen, or try to take a pic because my K800i is dead at the mo. i sent it to the service centre because i died on me. software crash. but because its an "EU spec" the service centre refused to sort it. i dont know it might open up once the phone is switced back on but the other 1 was switched off and it wasn't shut on that 1. it just had me curious...

my K800 looked like that the day i got it.
it FREAKED ME OUT.
the phone was off, and all that...
i slid open the lens cover just to check...
and i saw that black plastic stuff? blocking it...
i was soooooo scared that i had a messed up phone.
but then... when i turned it on, opened my lens cover again,
i could capture images with the camera, and that black thing was gone.
i was so relieved...
i guess it's like an internal lens cover.
