Rear Camera Not Working

Hi!

I've a Iphone 4s that the rear camera wont open the shutter after replacing the screen.

Also the flash doesnt work either (have tried with the torch app), I've tried to replace it with another one but that didnt solve it.

The front camera works.

I've read this Guide: iPhone Troubleshooting Guide 101

But it applies to Iphone 4 and the logicboards aint the same.

I've also tried to reset it etc, no luck.

So is there anybody who is sitting on a solution for this?

If your camera is correctly plugged back on the motherboard try this:

There's a golden connector/bracket you need to put back in place between the camera & top of the iPhone. Is it there?

Check what it looks like on Google 'iPhone 4s gold camera bracket'

just bring to the apple shop and they will tell you that the wire was disconnected so your ask them to fix it, wait for 45 minutes. I my camera is working quite good now.
