Hi there, I have a customer that dropped his two week old iPhone 6. Screen was broken but housing is still mint because of a good case. I had ordered a new screen assembly and a new rear camera. Repair went perfectly, it’s not my first iPhone 6. But when I powered it up, the camera problem was still the same; camera app opens up but shows only black image. It is however possible to turn to the front camera. The flash light isn’t working either, that was also the case with iPhone 5 that had faulty cameras. Any advice? I might advise him to take his phone to the store for warranty. The repair was done without fingerprints and such so they won’t notice. Kind regards, Renaat
It’s probably the rear camera IC chip needing to be replaced if you already tried replacing the rear camera. I had it done for me once so I know it’s possible.

You believe or not but for the first time when i dropped my phone the camera din’t worked util few days after i accidentally dropped it again then i switched on. Unbelievably the camera started to work again
My brother’s Iphone 6 + was dropped on the ground and the front of the screen cracked, and now his backfacing camera wont work at all. the phone wont even switch to the back camera. Anyone have any idea why?
Drop it again it worked for me
As if you saw bens answer he’s correct but it might still not work if it’s more damaged just to let you know not trying to be offended.
