God Damn Phone!!

Right, ive had my W800i for quite a while now (about 6 months) and yeah ive had the general walkman problems but ive got over them...
I decided to take the back off and clean it all (due to the shutter comin out and dust being able to get in). As I took it off I began to explore and get into the whole modding side of my Sony Ericsson W800i. I found a flappy type of micro chip thing connected to the peachy colored bit which led behind the flash. As I lifted the flappy bit up, it suddenly snapped! It was deffinatly something to do with the shutter button, as when i put the back case back on and slid the shutter button along for the camera to open, it didnt react! So i went through the main menu and got the camera up and it says "open the lens cover". Im so angry and confused as now it seems my W800i is camera less!

If anyone else came across this please say, and if you managed to fix it.. how???
Also does anyone know where I could get the part repaired?
Thanks alot

Think u broke the switch/lever that triggers the camera to start when u opened your phone. When you open your phone ur supposed to have the shutter open I believe. Anywayz I think it can be replaced for relatively cheap.
