Front camera and private speaker defective after battery replacement!

I did the battery replacement and everything is working perfectly fine except for my front camera and private speaker, which both don't work. In addition, the phone heats up very fast almost whenever I use it for more than a minute, and when I feel where the source of heat is, it's on the top right where they are and it is hot. Then when I feel towards the bottom of the phone, it's barely warm.

Answer this question I have this problem too

I would check the cable that goes from the motherboard (with the display cables) to the front facing camera assembly. Try reseating the connector first (you want a nice solid and satisfying clicking noise) and if that doesn't work, you have to replace the whole cable. Just have to be careful when you lift the screen out to not lift it more than 45-50 degrees up, and then disconnect the display. It's a couple extra steps, but when you're working on anything in the housing it's worth the extra safety.

Sounds to me like something is shorting out, since you stated that it gets very hot.

What do you suggest I do? It's also still in the charger because the manual said to let the battery charge to 100%. It's been in the charger for 30 minutes and its been hot but not increasing. Like I said top is more hot than bottom, and also noticeable is that the right side of the phone is more hot than the left. (left side is where the new battery is at)

Question. Does the battery drain quicker than it used to?

Don't know I haven't used it enough. I just took it out of the charger and actually it's been a whole hour and it went from like 26% to 38% all just in that time.

Been using it for a bit, I wouldn't say it drains QUICKER than it used to.
