My family friend texted me like two hours telling me if I wanted him to put a front facing camera on my Nexus. I didn't believe him and I thought he was joking. He came to my house and gave me $500 check like 30 minutes ago and said if he screws up my phone I could cash the check. He said he is pretty sure he could get it done. I hope it works out. He said it would take him around 5 days. I will post pictures if it works!

Nevermind, told him not to do it.

Installing and getting power to the camera might not be that difficult. Getting the phone to recognize the camera and use it properly could be tough. I suppose you could grab some code from the EVO if available. I hope your friend is both handy and knows how to program.

Hope he really is your friend and haven't given you a Check from an invalid account and took off with your phone. He would have 5day head start by the time you realize you juSt got screwed. :) just saying. LOL.

Hmmm... Just figuring out how one would do something like this, how hard would it be to create an accessory periscope-type mirror/prism apparatus that one could hang/clip on the top of the phone and use the rear-facing camera for front-facing video calling?

Yeah, I know - ghetto solution... :rolleyes:

Yo, I heard you like cameras, so we put a camera in yo camera so you can take a picture while you take a picture!
Just random.

Whether he steals it, installs it and gets it working, or installs it and kills your phone. . . pic or it didn't happen.
