Camera Flash not fitting properly. Why?

So I ordered iPhone 5 Rear Camera

The issue I have when adding the camera back in is the flash doesnt fit properly. There appears to be a caseing that is not on the old one. So now that the phone is togeather the screen pops out cause I am not able to get it down further because fo the caseing. Did I order the wrong back camera? Is there another style I need to get?

Ok I will try that. As it does have a bulky back to it. I did find another camera online with out that bulky lens and ordered it and was going to replace it with that. But the process to take the logic board off is tedious. So I will try this first.

Also since the update I noticed that I can not connect to the wifi. Would this some how be related. Or is this a seperate component some where else located in the phone?
