Iphone 4s camera repair

cyber69 · 9 Apr 2016 at 12:10

Hi all, my iphone 4s main camera (the rear one) has stopped working. When I click on the camera app the screen is just black and when I switch camera's to the front one it all works so I guess that the rear camera is faulty.

I'm fairly ok with taking things apart so wonder how easy the camera is to change and what parts I need (I don't have any phone tools) and also the best place to buy the parts from.

Thanks

I think it's pretty easy, just undo the Camera flex cable and remove it and replace it with another one.

You need the tiny screwdrivers to undo the case though and it may not be Phillips screws but the special one that apple uses.

It's pretty easy just watch the ifixit guide

super easy, just dont use any metal prying tools. just use your nail or plastic tools.
