This is just a little tutorial how to remove / replace the camera glass.
1 - First follow this steps (stop listen to page 3.3 "Disassembly"):
http://www.scribd.com/doc/87892838/Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-mini-ST15i-service-manual
2 - Now push the glass from the inside of the cover that you just removed. It will not take much effort, the glass is held in place by an adhesive ring.
(I took pictures of the steps ...)
Since I'm a CAD designer and I use CNC machines, I made from a sheet of 2mm thick plexiglass the replacement of the original glass full of condensation and scratches ...
(If you need send me an email, I'll see what I can do ...)
3 - Anyway, replace the cover, then reinsert the new glass.
The glass (plexiglass) I've done, is often little more than the original, so it is not necessary to use glues or adhesives to stop it. Just place it and close the external cover. Simple and functional.
Obviously necessary to consider that the plexiglass is not resistant such as glass, then the solution is temporary. However, once again scratched will just replace the glass with another one simply by removing the external cover.
That's all. I hope it was helpful!
(The last two photos are the tests "with" and "without" the glass (plexiglass)
The photos were only resized with photoshop.)

Why did you replaced the original glass? Don't you fear that the plexiglass is scratching much easier than mineral glass?
I'm asking because I have a strange spot in the middle of my Xperia Mini Camera glass - it looks like an antyglare film-cover of the camera glass is falling away from the glass. The glass itself doesn't seem to be affected(not scratched), but it looks with some pinky/lila spices seen while mirroring light at different angles. And in the middle of the glass this effect seems to dissappear by the probable lack of this cover - there is only the glass without colour in the mirrored light.
On the pictures the lack of this cover is seen when I take picture with a ligth coming in my direction - from a window or between the trees in the wood. So the picture looks very blurred. How can I find a new camera glass?

I did not understand, your problem is when you have the light against?
I can not tell if it's normal, but from a camera like ours you can not expect much more...
However I can tell you that I thoroughly searched the web but I have not found the original spare part.
The only option is the Sony service, but having the device with the bootloader unlocked, so...
Since I do not have the possibility of working with glass I had to choose the plexiglass.
I understand that it is not as strong as the glass, but I can assure you that it works very well.
I have ten.
I can send you one or two.
I just want a small donation to cover expenses.
Send me a PM or an email if you are interested.

Hey, I have the same problem with my Xperia Mini... I dropped the phone and the camera lens broke :crying:
I searched for the spare part but nothing... Do you have any lens left? If you have, are you able to send them to Greece, where I live?
Thanks in advance, it's my only hope to fix this phone as I don't want to send it to Sony service
I have a Nokia 3600 slide as a backup phone. The glass of my wt19 got blurry so I took the glass from the Nokia and adapted it to the sony. Working great so far.

Hi. Long time lurker, first time poster.
I have the same problem - the glass on my ST15i lens is damaged and all the images come out blurry and unfocused. So i wanted to ask - would the WT19i replacement glass fit on my xperia mini? Does the size match? It's quite expensive with postage, would not want to order it just for kicks.
tl;dr - would the WT19i glass fit on ST15i camera?
Thanks!
nice job
I will have a try if I get the parts

I have been waiting long time for a cheaper alternative, and today I found this case on Ebay.
So I just ordered it through free shipping, normally it takes 2 weeks to get free shipping stuff

Even though I agree with you, I still think it is kind of unique and the colors mix is nice.
Alright here we go.. I purchased this on the 21st and got it today which is not bad considering it came from China. I'm not that great writing a product review so I hope pictures speak louder than words.
I'll just describe the product instead of listing the pros. All around this case is pure plastic, I can't put my thumb on it but it is plastic and screen side (with the window) is flexible (just like the OEM). The window is not glass so it'll be prone to scratches and finger prints. Comparing to the OEM case I feel that the window quality is pretty sturdy because the plastic window doesn't feel cheap when I bend it, tap it, or flick on it. Continuing on the front side, there is a speaker hole so you can listen on to calls. There is a indented quote "design endows product a life" midway below the case. And at the bottom.. yes it a metal button just like the metal design/quality of the home button of the actual phone.
Moving to the side, just like the OEM, there's indented prints for the + and - volume keys. Nothing much else to look here.
On the back, the Baseus logo is indeed metal and has a nice feel when you smooth your finger over it. The camera and lens is kept protected with the case on so it's not protruding out.
Functionality of the S-View: the two metal pins on the back of the case is indeed for the control of the sleep and awake feature for the phone. So when I close/open the S-view, it will awake or sleep and will show the regular OEM functions (i.e. S-View slide to unlock, camera, action memo, and music player shows up).
Cons:
three things that bug me about this case. Metal button in the front (really?), as you can see in the photos the case does not fully close all the way (won't bother me as much because the sleep function will works), and since it's flexible plastic I feel that the flap (the side plastic) overtime will wear out and rip.. well that just normal wear and tear of products.
Overall I'm actually very satisfied with this product. I didn't want to purchase the OEM S-view case and sought better alternatives for the S-view cases. I found this and I'm truly again satisfied. Try it guys.. for $20 it's worth it. It comes in different colors (I didn't find full colors, only two-toned). Let me know if you guys are getting it!!
Sorry of the pictures are showing up side ways, I'm not sure why it is. (pictures taken with Note 2)
For a Chinese product it doesn't look bad. Please keep us updated on durability. If Spigen doesn't release theirs soon I might consider this one.

In your pictures it looks as though when laid on its back the front cover holds open slightly. Is the hinged portion of the case a soft material that possibly could break in over time?

Like I said in the description. The case opens out a little bit, but after a day use of it, the case gotten use to being closed completely in my pocket and now it's closed all the way now. And like I said before, I can't find the specific name for the quality, but it's flexible plastic and from what I'm seeing the cover inside material is fabric so I wouldn't think the hinge will rip that easily.
TPU?

However on the front case there is not the hole for the home button. So the front case may not close properly.

What does that mean? Are you using a protruding home button sticker or something.
I have one of these too. I'm pleased with it, considering the price of it versus the S-view. I'm hoping over time the case will stay closed better.

Bought one in White and Black. Really good cover. Does what the original cover does. The front of the cover does close properly for me and the home button doesn't cause the front to stay open. The only thing that was annoying me was the s view window has scratches on it already

I've not seen any scratches on the screen so far
Why do case manufacturers insist on leaving a gaping hole where the camera is! A simple magnetic or even Velcro flap over the lens hole would prevent perhaps the most prone to damage area of the phone from getting scratched and dirty!
it drives me nuts!... I remember when phone makers used to have lens protectors built in, I remember a couple of great Sony Ericsson handsets,.
Does anyone have any remedies, other than putting my phone in a sock!
I just buy a cheap film and cut it to size and put it over the lens. Works like a charm
Cheap film as in cheap screen protector?
Sent from my SM-N9005
In case you don't know:
1. The piece of glass above the camera is Gorilla Glass. The same material that's protecting the screen.
2. It is possible (in fact very easily) to replace that cover. Just search ebay for N9005 Rear Chassis Housing. It's not cheap, but certainly not expensive either. ($ 20 - 30)

I really don't see the necessity, if it ever gets that bad just replace it or use a piece of scotch tape that you take off to use it.

Yep! I haven't seen a case out there that covers the camera. I don't think it's ever going to be made.
I remember along time ago, I had these lens protector for mobile phones, the package comes with abpproximate 20 pieces of different sizes of circles, the same material of that used for mobile phone screen protector.

Ive seen lots of people moaning that the note 3 camera really sticks out, which it does.. people saying get damaged easily, and even videos showing you how to replace the camera lens cover.. so its obviously causing issues.. and Id rather have a simple mechanism on the case to stop this from happening...
I know the Griffen survivor for iPhone 5 had a camera protector.

Good Thought
I believe that the area infront of the camera should be even more recessed, in order to avoid normal wear-and-tear when laying my phone on table.
This is why I have taken an oversized housing that doesnt make the camera part touch the table when resting it. The downside to it - I am walking with an oversized housing... I totally agree with you.
But then, I am not a paranoid. I've been through worse experience before ....
My old S2 I9100 ... after some time, My camera would take blurry ( i mean REAL BLURRY) pictures. worse thing was that the glass was not part of the battery door. Been trying elimination techniques to identify the issue (since it started all of a sudden IMO) - swap ROMs, came back to stock, camera app , ... well ... in the end, I had to buy a mid plate housing, then change everything.. quite some courage and skill it took... Not the kind of thing any user would do. I started to hate that design in the end, but not the phone ..
I believe manufacturers should not ignore this very valid point, and put a more recessed camera portion. I dont believe putting a camera lens cover would do - putting a mechanical part will make it break at some point. Again, putting a lens cover will mean they will make the internals more fragile, making it more vulnerable when the cover mechanism would actually fall apart. And, of course, it would not be the same letting someone/ everyone know when you are about to take a picture, when u are moving/ removing your lens cover ! obviously !

No, been using phone cameras since they came out, never had a problem. I always do a quick wipe against my soft cotton undershirt before taking a pic just in case there was a fingerprint but never ever have I looked at a picture and said, damn, if only it didn't have that smudge on it, wish I had a protector for it! I have perfect vision too.

Anyone here seeing scratches across the camera lens?
--- Update
They aren't scratches, its a coating that is very easily scratched. Possibly only affects black units, could just be easier to see.

I haven't, but then again I have mine in a case.

I heard that the camera lens is covered with Gorilla Glass 4, which would make it just as scratch resistant as most phones out there. It is, however, flush with the rest of the phone, so it could easily be scratched if not in a case.
I don't have any scratches. I just looked at it with my big magnifier lamp and not a single scratch.
I had a case before my phone came (like the OP in the link). I'm very gentle with my stuff though. Don't put it in pocket with keys. When it's in the purse, it's facing fabric.
Mine is scratched. Only went without a case for 2 days. I am also careful with my phone but it seems that simply setting it down on a table has scratched my camera glass. I can't believe it would scratch that easily.

Ouch. I dropped mine on asphalt the day after I put it in a case. I heard it bounce on the ground three times. I was so lucky.

I had a case before my phone came (like the OP in the link). I'm very gentle with my stuff though. Don't put it in pocket with keys. When it's in the purse, it's facing fabric.

Agreed. Keys do havoc.

This is why I'm so confused. I am so careful with my devices. I just have to have it look good enough to do a Jump on Demand trade in, and then move on I suppose.

You can still jump with minor nicks and scratches. That's considered normal wear and tear according to the jump guidelines.

Look at this durability video. Granite can supposedly scratch the lens if you're not careful. So yay it's not sticking out... but not strong enough to slide around.
The rest of the phone is well made though

Yes, but it shouldn't be allowed to happen because it could potentially cause a crack.

This is why I ordered my case Amazon Prime the moment I did my pre-order. Juuuust in case.
They aren't scratches, its a ****ty coating as I just found out.
I used Mcguire's polishing compound on a Dremel polishing wheel at low speed and its all gone. The darkish coating came off and its perfect again. Looks brand brand new. I have no idea if it was anti glare, or was supposed to be removed before shipment. The picture quality seems the same.

Nice! I wonder if they added the coating due to the possibility of crack of v20. Not going to attempt to remove mine just yet.
No idea, but so many people are going to return over this issue. This might sink this phone if they don't stop putting this coating on immediately.
Other forums are quoting this thread already.

With your mention of a coating, it's possible they put an oleophobic coating on the camera lens. I don't understand what else you would put on top of GG4.

Honestly, though I'm not saying you all don't have scratches, stuff like this comes up for just about every phone I've ever used. The last was the Note7 where people were claiming that GG5 was the softest material on planet Earth and scratched on denim. Now people are upset the G6 doesn't have GG5 on the front.
I literally just noticed it today. I also only went 2 days without the case. I thought there was a small piece of packing plastic on it. ?

Dumb question, but is it possible some of you are scratching lens when you have cleaned it with certain materials? For example, a napkin...
It reminds me of that coated feeling when you rub the readable side of a CD. I tried cleaning a game once with a paper towel and it gave it a million scratches which made it unreadable. It's possible this film is just as sensitive?
I have yet to clean my lens with anything but my finger

This surprises me. Mine has scratches as well.This must have happened before I put a case on my phone, and when I sat the phone on a surface with the camera side facing down
. One of the scratches goes across one of the lenses. Bummer.

Update 20-08-2019:
I bought another version, also Aliexpress. It's different than the one I previous bought and I'm sure this is a real one:
Link: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33011854891.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.18294c4dPaGLbK
It's a bit more expensive than the other ones, you can easily spot them. The shape of the protection film is different (see images below). The differences I've found so far:
-It comes with much more protection film than the fake ones, the protection film is a different shape
-It includes the same barcode on the inside as the real ones (not present on the fake ones)
-The adhesive color is the same as the original one (light grey), on the fake ones the adhesive is black
-It includes adhesive for the camera
-It has a better fit
-It has a much better shine
-The adhesive sticks super good like the oem one.

================================================================================
Old info:
So I really like the Explorer edition, but I need band 20 so it was pretty much a no go. I went with the blue global version instead. I love the phone but I had constantly the feeling I was using my wife's phone (she has a blue Mi A2). Then I stumbled across original battery covers for sale on Aliexpress, including the Explorer edition:
It arrived very quick and it even included some tools like a suction cup. It also includes new tape (already applied) for super easy installation. As expected the fake PCB that normally sits underneath the glass on the Explorer Edition was not included. However I decided to show the true internals. With some heat and a small plastic card the rear was easily removed. There was hardly any glue residue and it was cleaned of easily:
The rear cover fits like a charm. It must a be an OEM part, it's just perfect. I love the look, but I assume you either love it or hate it. I think it suits the blue very well and I like the look of that QI coil
Update:
I'll probably remove the Explorer back and reinstall the stock blue one. The tape on the stock one is still strong so it should hold again, you might ask why:
-Dust is showing, this is probably due to the fact there is no sealing around the camera, the stock back has a tape around this area, the Aliexpress cover doesn't
-On some slight pressure on the edge the tape is already lifting. The stock tape is much stronger
That looks so nice. I'd make it but I won't give up warranty..

There is no trace of it, it's all glued. If I want warranty I'll put the blue cover on that I've also ordered from the same store ?
Wait so I can just buy this transparent back and I don't need any more tools?
I have a purple one. I kind of want to do this. But also am afraid. I put a metallic skin similar to the attached image on my back cover rn. I hope I can keep my current back intact and have a separate transparent one.

The only tools you need that i'snt supplied are a hairdryer or heatgun and a small plastic card:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8JSDC4_xfY
As you see removal is super easy. You probably even could reinstall your old back if you want. However this will depend on how neatly you will pull it of as you kinda distort the tape that's behind the cover on removal. I would suggest to buy both a Explorer back and your original color so you could always return to stock easily, yes this would mean you'll need another one of those brushed metal decals too.

Did u do anything to make it completely clear (the end few pictures) cause I thought even transparent version has a gradient
Sent from my Xiaomi MI 9 using XDA Labs
The rear is full transparant with a smoked gradient. The blueish square in the picture is the foil / masking tape on the cover that is removed before install. Good luck!

I really like the look of the transparent back and I'm thinking of doing it, too. Thank you so much for sharing!
However I dropped my phone a week ago. I just sat on a chair and it slipped out of my sleeve (this one: amazon.de/Adore-June-Handyh%C3%BClle-Extrafach-Display-Reinigungseffekt-Schwarz-Grau/dp/B01M0QJP0Z/ref=sr_1_20?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=adore+june&qid=1560587403&s=gateway&sr=8-20 but not sure if it was the version for the iPhone 7). :crying: I love these kind of sleeves as it cleans the screen and you have the naked phone in your hand while using it. The phone was in my sleeve in my pocket and slipped out of both. The sleeve even stayed in my pocket. Now it has minor to medium scratches on the metal frame :crying: (I guess I was lucky as nothing more happened).
I found a replacement part on eBay:

And a video how do do it on youtube:

But I think you have to dig through the whole phone to replace it and I'm not sure if it's worth taking the risks. If I do replace this part I'll add the transparent back for sure.
Amazing. Already ordered. Thank you!

It's not the same as stock but it's glass (probably not gorilla).
I ordered 2, blue and transparent.
Blue is not even close to stock "ocean blue", just plain reflective blue without holo/rainbow effect. I know that on the real photo (store page) it was not looking like "ocean blue".
Transparent one and that dimmed effect is just a foil attached to the back side of the glass. So at least you can easily make fully transparent glass (removing dimming foil is easy).
Also brand in print is missing comma and dots, "Co Ltd" instead of "Co., Ltd." (transparent). In print is miss aligned, a little bit off horizontally (blue).
I'm not mad because I was expecting fakes for that price but still, calling it "original" is a little bit misleading.

Great eye for detail. I received the blue one earlier this week and indeed the holo effect is missing.
On the foil, thats typically how glass covers are colored, so that's nothing out of the ordinary.
On the brand print, my transparant one is printed "Co., Ltd." so it seems there are multiple versions floating around ?
Front glass has been shattered from a not at all nasty fall. Display and touch is absolutely fine. I enquired with one mi service center they don't change the glass alone. They change whole screen, touch and the glass which costs INR 6300. How much does it take get the front glass replaced from a third party shop?
I had just taken off old tempered glass 4 days ago and was waiting to install a new one. And this happens.
I got my front glass replaced yesterday for 950₹ in Hyderabad,India
I finally fixed mine for INR 1050. It's as good as new. For anyone out there, for the love of god DO NOT USE THE COVER THAT CAME WITH THE MOBILE. It gives fall sense of security.

I guess this is from local shops. So was it just the front glass replacement or the whole lcd screen is replaced? How long does it take to do the replacement?
From looking up youtube videos I think it's a lot more work to replace just the glass. It seems to be bonded to the touchscreen so it looks easier to replace them as one unit

About half an hour minimum. Only front glass has been replaced. There are three separate elements viz front glass, touch panel, lcd screen. Change whichever is damaged. If you go to authorised xiaomi service center they will replace everything for about 30% value of the phone, regardless what has damaged.

Thanks lockhrt999! In my case, I think it is just the glass that is broken. Now if I get that replaced, I think it will be a normal glass and not a gorilla glass. How does the normal glass hold up in daily use?

I think it was scratch resistant. Gorilla glass are overrated. Every damn thing these days is scratch resistant. Get your front glass replaced and install a tempered glass and it'll be better than gorilla glass.

~₹1100 at most mobile repair shops. That's for the glass alone. Upto 1k extra for touch maybe.
An extra bit of info:
1. There is a slight chance that the replacement of glass may damage the display. So keep that in mind, the last time i was there my display was slightly damaged, there was a black line running along the display. Although you will get the chance to check the display before the new glass is applied so make sure to check it before applying new glass. It will cost around Rs. 1000.
2. The replacement glass is just normal glass like the tempered glass. It is scratch resistant to some degree but it is not very strong and will break if drop from a height.
3. The whole folder and assembly will cost somewhere around Rs. 1600. If anyone is asking for more than this then do no fall for them. Because only the certified xiaomi store sells replacement folder (display+touch) that is original, and that is around Rs. 6000. If buying from a third party seller there is 100% guarantee that it will be duplicate and not original.
4. The original screen can have varying issues depending upon the panel installed. On some panels you may get back light bleeding issues, on other panels you may get touch issues. So Rs. 6000 for them is overkill. Similarly the local screen may also have some issues. Some local screen will have issues regarding brightness and color intensity. Some will have touch issues where you will either get resistant touch problem where the touch will sometimes not respond or will require more force to be used, or you will require a custom kernel to be flashed for the touch to even function. So anyways check the panel before installation.
So to cap it all if you do not want to take chances with third party display or touch and want to keep original then you can get the glass replaced but there might be slight chance that the display may be damaged. In that case always check the display before applying new glass. Or you can just get everything new but then again that will be local and not original, so remember do not pay more than Rs. 1600 for replacement screen. Seriously paying more than that on screen replacement for this phone is a joke as even the original screen have a ton of issues.
I hope this will help someone out there.
Have a good day.

probably a broken touch and i believe it can be fixed. but its better to get a new display altogether if the touch and display are combined. After market touch are not that good, and front glass removal have a slight change of damaging the display.
