iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 26
Question marked as
If the replacement camera is not a genuine Apple camera, the “Unknown Part” warning will continue to appear, regardless of how many times you dismiss it. The warning is generated by the iPhone to indicate that it cannot verify the camera as a genuine Apple component. Simply dismissing the message will not make it go away permanently; it will continue to reappear as long as the issue remains unresolved.
Kindly reach out to the Store/Individual/Agency from whom you acquired your iPhone. They would be best equipped to confirm whether the device has undergone servicing by an unauthorized service provider.

Understanding the circumstances surrounding the appearance of this message could provide insights into any alterations in the device's service history or software updates that have brought about this notice.
