I just replaced my screen on my iPhone 7 Plus using one of your kits and everything is working except my forward facing camera. The earpiece is working though. When I try to use the forward facing camera, it is just black.
hello Robin, You probably broke a flex tape, when disconnecting or ungluing from a bracket. It happens sometimes. You replaced the screen for some reason. Are you sure the camera assembly with sensors was working before the screen was removed? Fortunately, this malfunction is fairly simple to diagnose and fix. Firstly check sensors: cover the area with the speaker mesh at the top of the screen with your finger and put the phone to sleep. Then turn it on.The screen should be much darker. If you remove your finger, the screen should brighten. If that’s the case, your light sensor is working. Second test: call your mailbox and cover the mesh (while making a call) with a finger again. If the screen goes blank, the proximity sensor is working properly. Remove your finger - the screen should turn on automatically. If you don’t want to waste time on such experiences, just replace the complete set. Brand new should cost on eBay aprox $10. regards,
