Product Overview
Camera not focusing properly? No longer responding at all? Fix it!
This is the main camera for the iPhone 5.
The 8 megapixel camera is capable of taking 1080p HD video.
The part includes the LED flash as well.
Please Note: If you have a scratched lens, this part will not solve your issue.
Remove the following screws securing the logic board to the rear case:
Be sure to put this screw back in its original position at the top of the logic board. A magnetized screw may interfere with the digital compass.
Reassembly hint: when putting the standoffs back in, use the tip of a spudger like a screwdriver to get them started.
These screws have a Phillips bit pattern, but we found the best removal tool to be a 2.5 mm flathead driver.
Two 2.3 mm Phillips screws
Two 2.7 mm standoff screws.
One non-magnetic 2.7 mm standoff screw
Rotate the logic board assembly toward the battery side of the rear case.
Do not attempt to completely remove the logic board assembly from the rear case, yet; there is still one cable connected to the underside of the logic board.
The flash surround is adhered to the flash unit and the rear case. If it stays on the rear case remove with tweezers and mount it back on the flash unit.
Note: when reassembling your device, be sure that the lower interconnect cable is not tucked underneath the logic board.
Use the tip of a spudger to pry the Wi-Fi antenna cable connector up from its socket on the underside of the logic board.
Remove the logic board assembly from the rear case.
While your logic board is out of your phone, keep it on a grounded anti-static mat to prevent any damage to the circuitry.
Remove two 1.1 mm Phillips screws securing the rear-facing camera bracket to the logic board.
Remove the rear-facing camera bracket from the logic board.
Use the flat end of a spudger to disconnect the rear-facing camera cable from its socket on the logic board.
Remove the rear-facing camera from the logic board.
Your replacement part may not come with the flash surround—if not, remove it from the old camera and transfer it to your replacement.
