Anyone know where I can get a new OEM lens and bezel? My local repair shop didn't have one, and I didn't find one on eBay.

BTW great app!

First, welcome to AC, it's a fun place. Second, I would check Ebay, sooner or later everything ends up there. Third, How did you break the lens? I've heard of the regular S5 lens breaking, yours it the first Active needing replacement. I'm just curious.

I searched every related term I could think of on eBay at the recommendation of the local repair shop. No luck. I'm not sure how the lens broke. It's only a month old. However, the bezel/lens extends out past the battery cover. When the phone is set down screen up, it rests on the bezel. Maybe I set it down too hard. That seems to be a design flaw. So far the camera still takes good pics. I think I can install a new bezel/lens myself if I can find one.

A lot of people have had this problem with the S5 and the Active. The bezel does stick a bit too far out, so when someone sets the phone down, the hard surface is going to hit the lens. I bought the hula bumper case for mine, it made it so the bezel isn't hitting surfaces all that much.
