iPhone 11 Rear Camera and Flash Problems

Hi, I'm using an iPhone 11 and I'm experiencing problems with my rear camera and flash.


I have tried the following steps to fix it:

  • force closed the camera app
  • toggled flash (which did not turn on) and waited for 10 seconds before opening the camera app
  • switched from the rear camera and front camera
  • toggled VoiceOver on and off
  • toggled Low Power on and off
  • toggled location access in Camera on and off
  • removed access to the apps from the Privacy tab in Settings
  • changed video format from 1080p 60 to 720 30
  • reset all settings
  • erased all content and settings and recovered them from backup
  • updated my iOS from 14.2 to 14.3


The weird thing is, the ultrawide camera works and the green dot indicator shows up. And even if I can't turn my flash on using the button in the control center, it turns on when I turn it on while using the ultrawide. When I use the 1x and 2x, the screen is just black and the green dot indicator fades.


Is there anyone experiencing the same problem? What can I do to fix it?
