Camera, flashlight, night mode not working and becames hot

Hi!

Recently after my phone fallen to the ground, my camera, flashlight and night mode stopped working at the same time.

My system-flashlight isn’t clickable and my camera won’t open and often becomes hot.

My screen no longer turn orange automatically (it’s a LineageOS feature), BTW turn on night mode by hand has no problem.

I don’t know how these problems are related but they happen at the same time.

Safe mode doesn’t solve anything.

Some year ago there was a similar problem and I changed the camera module with a new one.

Any suggestion? Thank you.

I fixed all all problems simply reconnecting the camera module. My explanation of the cause:

  1. The camera module was glued to the back of the screen probably because this was too hot, indeed this is the heatsink of the cpu.
  2. So when my phone dropped, the camera connector absorbed the hurt disconnecting itself.
  3. Then between the cpu and the heatsink an air gap has formed and the cpu easily becames hot .

I don’t know why this fix also night mode, perhaps because even the light sensor was disconnected.
