One of the most sophisticated components inside the iPhone,camera,and can be easily damaged when dropped during daily use.Camera replacement can be expensive.

Today, China Phonefix will share with you the repair case of an iPhone camera and walk you through some knowledge of iPhone camera repair!



Apple has encrypted the camera of the iPhone 12 series and later models. So if the camera is changed, the “Important Camera Message” will pop up. 

Therefore, camera replacement will undoubtedly become a trend. 


Apple's iPhone is known for its prowess in camera development. Whether it's the original 2-megapixel rear camera or the popular iPhone 13 Pro Rear Camera, Apple's phone cameras are always improving.



Open the phone camera. When taking photos with the wide-angle camera, cracks appear. The ultra-wide camera works fine. We can judge that the optical filter of the wide-angle camera is damaged.



Then we disassemble the phone and try to repair the camera:



First of all, put the camera on the Heating Platform at 100 °C. When the temperature reaches 100 °C, remove black adhesive around the camera with a Sculpture Knife. Then pry up the wide-angle camera.


Attach the camera to the holder. Before repair, apply protection tape to the camera. Separate the camera edges with a Sculpture Knife. Next, remove the metal cover with ATTEN WX-2008D Hot Air Gun at 120 °C.


Keep heating with Hot Air Gun at 120 °C. Remove black adhesive with Tweezers. Apply some Paste Flux. Separate the motor from the CMOS with ultrathin Soldering Iron at 380 °C.


It can be seen that the optical filter is broken while the motor and blue lens are good. If the motor is damaged, the camera will fail to focus or shake. A motor replacement can help you solve the problem. The middle part of the motor is the blue lens. If the blue lens is damaged, the camera will become blurry. The solution is to replace the blue lens.



Then we replace the cracked optical filter with a new one. Apply some UV adhesive to the broken optical filter. Put the new optical filter in position. Solidify with a UV Lamp.

Remove side adhesive with Hot Air Gun. Then push the cracked optical filter out with the holder. Remove residual shards and black adhesive with Hot Air Gun.

 


Then remove dust spots with a swab. Please be extremely careful not to damage the CMOS during operation. If the CMOS is damaged, the camera will be unrepairable. Then apply some UV adhesive and a new optical filter.  Solidify with UV Lamp.


Then we assemble the camera. Apply some Paste Flux around the motor. Solder the motor with the CMOS with AIXUN T3A Soldering Iron. Clean the camera with alcohol. Next, we install the wide-angle camera for testing. The camera works fine.

 


Apply B7000 Adhesive Glue to fix the wide angle camera. That’s all for the optical filter replacement of iPhone camera. iPhone camera repair not only includes optical filter replacement but also blue lens replacement, etc.. Please stay tuned for more iPhone camera repair content.
