Hey, so I was helping a friend with her Galaxy S2 i9100G which she dropped (more like smashed) and broke the lcd. I ordered a lcd replacement (non original) from eBay which came with an already attached frame so it was only a matter of replacing the mobo etc. from one frame to the other.
All went well, phone is back up! Only thing is that the camera isn't working. It pretty much fails. Doesn't even show a glimpse of anything. It just doesn't work. I tested it on stock rom and now flashed CM 10.1.3 to test if it's a software issue but same problem. Camera isn't working.
So I was wondering if it could be a hardware failure as a result of the phone being forcefully thrown or could the camera be affected because of the LCD replacement? I mean, the camera is pretty much wired to the original mobo so I don't see how the new LCD might affect it. Maybe I had to get a LCD that is G compatible? Everything else but the camera is working fine... Can't switch to front camera either by the way.
So, hardware problem or lcd?
Any help will be appreciated! Thanks!
