        Hello everyone,

        today I replaced the mainboard of my Pinephone with the upgraded one.
        After that I realized, that the main cam is working, but when I switch to the selfie cam, I get a completely green screen for one or two seconds then it automatically switches back to main cam.

        I forgot to check, how it was before. I wonder now, if that is the current state of the cam software (last stable build of UT #89) or if I might haven't connected the cable of the cam properly to the board.
        Before I disassemble the whole thing again I was hoping, somebody could tell me.

        Thanks for your answers!

          @jojumaxx Yes, exactly the same here. Difficult to remember now but on the last board I don't think the selfie cam did anything.

            I have the original board still in mine and with the same behavior as described. This is due to the state of developement, not any misconnected cables.

              Thanks for your answers! Good to know, I did assembling without issues concerning the connectors.
