Cameras don't work after screen replacement
#1
Does anyone changed the screen of the PinePhone recently?

My PinePhone screen broke a month ago, i received the new one 2 days ago and immediatly changed it.
I had no particuar problems but after rebooting i noticed both cameras weren't working anymore.
Megapixel app on Mobian says "Error opening the video device" and if i try to swicth from the back one to the front one the app closes.
I don't know what happened, i didn't touched them, i just dismounted the main board following the video from Martijn Braam, the cameras remained in their places, of course there were no reasons for me to detach them from the main board.
I tried to detach them sereval times checking the connectors, they look perfectly connected.
I tried with different OS to be sure it's not a software problem, even checked the pins in the back to be sure they weren't in the disabled position, and also moved them in the disabled position, rebooted the system to check if something changed but no luck at all.

Is it possible they got briked somehow? I really don't understand.
