Unfortunately, I have the same issue. I replaced the screen a while back as the digitizer was funky, but the cameras have never worked for me.
I thought it was software issues for the longest time, until I looked deeper and realized the cameras are not detected at all with a known-good kernel.
I recently took apart my BraveHeart again and reseated all the camera connectors, and that didn't work.
I have only a couple theories, both of them depressing.
1. Those evil little ribbon cables killed themselves from being flexed half a degree too far. I've seen so many electronics do that, it's infuriating.
2. Somehow something on the motherboard became physically damaged by the act of replacing the screens.
Since other people are having the same issue, I guess I'm glad it's not me. I'd order more cameras, but they're out of stock, and I'm not convinced the replacements would work either, if it's board damage.
