Replacement front camera iPhone 7 Plus

Replacing the front camera in the iPhone 7 Plus 

The use of a smartphone as a camera or camcorder has already become one of the conditions for the demand for a wearable device. Moreover, the devices are equipped with two shooting points at once, one of which is frontal, or as it is also called a selfie camera. As a rule, the quality of her pictures differs from the photos taken with the main camera, but the trend of recent years has brought these pictures to a fairly decent level.

The front of the iPhone 7 Plus has a built-in camera that supports HDR - High Dynamic Range. Its 7 megapixel resolution allows you to shoot good quality. However, like many other parts of the gadget, breakdowns occur, forcing us to seek help from specialists.

If something similar happened to your iPhone 7 Plus, the specialists of the ICOOLA service center are ready to deal with the problem, correctly diagnose and quickly fix it.

Signs of a broken front camera in the iPhone 7 Plus

Front camera malfunctions can manifest themselves in different ways, so it is important to correctly identify the cause. Concerns should be raised for defects in work such as:

1. Turbidity and blurring of images in the photo from the front camera ;
2. Autofocus mode does not work;
3. Light sensor does not work;
4. Stripes appear during shooting and in the photo;
5. Lens clouding.

If, when examining the camera of the gadget or in the process of working with it, such problems are found, as well as if the camera generally refuses to take any action, the optimal and reasonable solution for the user is to contact the ICOOLA service center.

The main factors leading to breakdowns

Any experienced craftsman will name many reasons why the FC fails. Here are just a few of them, most often found in the practice of service center specialists.

1. High humidity inside the smartphone. High humidity, talking on the phone in the rain, and many types of accidental drowning lead to oxidation of contacts and malfunctions, including front-end cameras .
2. Shock load. It does not matter if you dropped the phone itself or the impact came from a hard and heavy object falling on the device itself - this can lead to the destruction of the loop, which will have to be changed. To do this, you need to almost completely disassemble and assemble the device.
3. Software crash. IPhones use their own iOS operating system . Yes, it is certainly reliable, but the so-called "glitches" periodically visit even the most perfect shells. To exclude this cause of camera failure, or to assert that the problems lie in it, it is enough to restart the smartphone. Well, if the manipulations did not bring the desired result, contact the ICOOLA SC.
4. Natural wear and tear, and this is understandable, since the words of the classic "nothing lasts forever ..." are also true for any electronic parts of the device.

The breakdown of the front camera for many selfie lovers seems like a disaster, but despite the seriousness of the problem, its solution for professional masters does not cause great difficulties.

Repair sequence

To warn "hot heads" and "crazy hands" against the wrong decision to fix the problem with the camera on our own, we will give an approximate algorithm of actions, as a result of which the master restores the camera, and the amateur can break something else along the way.

So, to get access to the ribbon cable on which the camera is attached, the iPhone 7 Plus needs to be disassembled, for which:

• Turn off the smart and remove the sim card;
• With a special, we emphasize, with a special screwdriver, unscrew the two fastening screws at the bottom end of the device case;
• Before disassembling, slightly warm up the case to facilitate its opening;
• Place the suction cup on the bottom of the screen and pull it up slightly. Insert the pick into the gap and, moving it around the perimeter, carefully separate the front panel from the body. It opens like a book, not like a notebook! As soon as you "flip" the display up and the right side cable may be cut off;
• Remove the protective screen on the right side and carefully disconnect the battery cable, display, do the same in the upper part of the circuit and put the case aside;
• In the upper part of the front panel, unscrew the fasteners of the protective plate that fixes the camera cable;
• Since the camera is integrated into a loop with sensors, if one of the elements breaks down, everything changes entirely. Carefully, using thin tweezers, we dismantle the earpiece and the cable with the defective chamber. The loop and sensors are fixed to the panel with glue, so before removing them, the panel must also be slightly warmed up;
• After replacing the part, we assemble the device in the reverse order.
