today I'm going to show you how to replace the rear camera on the iPhone 6s it's a pretty simple repair the hardest part of this whole thing is just going to be getting the screen off and back on safely so I will show you how to do that first things first turn off the phone I will link all of the tools you'll need and the parts like the replacement camera and camera lenses down in the video description below there are two pentalobe screws at the bottom of the phone remove those and then lift up on the screen with a suction cup and you can pry between the frame of the screen and the frame of the phone with a pry tool it can be metal or plastic just make sure that when you're prying between both of the frames that you're not actually bending the LCD because you can crack your LCD that way and it will turn into a much more expensive repair so be careful when you lift up the screen make sure not to go past 90 degrees or else you'll tear those ribbon cables there's four screws attached this metal plate make sure to keep those organized and put them back where they belong then you can lift up each of these ribbon cables they're like Legos just unsnap them from their connections and that removes the screen there are two screws here next to the camera there's also that same little ribbon cable connector that the screen had remove the metal plate for the camera and then the camera will just pop out of its little slot pretty straightforward here's the camera itself it is 12 megapixels and can record in 4k finally here's the rear lens for the camera you can see that is a little bit protected with that lip right there you can replace this lens you can pop it out from the back of the phone just push it out through this little hole or you can take a razor blade and you can heat up the phone a little bit and pull out the lens with the razor blade as you can see in slow motion here this is the iPhone 6 that I was pulling that lens out on the iPhone 6s is a little bit different with the lenses but I will link those in the video description when you're putting the camera back in make sure where my tweezers are to pull that little ribbon it's little grounding ribbon and that's the screw is going to go through that ribbon so make sure it's in the right spot before you put those screws back into place and then you can just take the ribbon cables and push them down on top of their connections as well you'll feel them kind of snap down into place just like Legos as I was explaining earlier so before I put that metal plate down I'm just going to make sure the screen is working if you lines running through your screen or if your screen is white or doesn't respond to touch you're going to just take it off and then reseat the ribbon cables again there's been a lot of people who have been having problems with that in the past so if everything works fine like mine you can just put that metal plate back into place line up the top of the screen with the edge of the phone and then snap the sides down into place after that make sure to get your bottom two pentalobe screws in and you are good to go have any questions leave in the comments don't forget to subscribe if this video helped you out and don't forget to check out my Instagram thanks ton for watching hope to see you around
