Take notice of the orientation dot

Symptoms

  • Rear camera doesn't work. Just shows black screen
  • Front camera is working

Solution

  • First step would be to try replacing the rear camera with a known working part
    • You may need to flash an update to get the rear camera to work
  • If new rear camera does not fix issue, Diode Mode the Rear Camera Connector
    • Check for any shorts or Open Lines (OL)
  • Check the LDO U1601. This is a power rail for the camera
    • IMPORTANT: Check orientation of the LDO from the actual board. ZXW shows Pin 1 incorrectly, so orientation is wrong. (see image for correct orientation)
    • See if this LDO is loose or broken.
    • Or just try replacing it & see if rear camera starts working.
