How about the battery? Does it charge up to 100% and last for awhile? It is strange that both the rear camera and flashlight do not work. Sounds like it might be battery related?
Yeah the phone itself is about 1-1/2 yrs old. Battery health shows over 90% battery health. So I can’t imagine it being battery related?? I know sometimes my dads 6 gets too hot and the flash/flash light won’t work, but he recently had a brand new battery put in by Apple

The flash will not work if the rear camera is offline; hence, you most likely have a hardware issue. You can try replacing the rear camera yourself (I recommend you follow the iFixit guides) to see if that solves the problem or not. It could also be a logic board issue, especially if you have had the phone repaired recently or it came into contact with water.
Thanks for the replies guys.
The phone is original and hasn’t been repaired or had any other hardware issues. It hasn’t been submerged in water either.
Just strange. Since the phone is over a year old, with no AppleCare, I’m assuming that if the camera module itself is bad or logic board it’s going to come out of my pocket??

I also seen a YouTube video saying that pressing hard on the camera itself sometimes fixes it. This a good idea?
